TTC#1 - The difficult fifth thread: the one where we all get BFP!

999 replies

DulcetMoans · 11/08/2012 21:38

Time to move over ladies. Would love to start this thread by announcing my BFP but unfortunately I can't because we all talk too much to get to test date!

All going for gold medals in baby-making and bound to get there soon, aren't we???

Hi Rachel!

[Wine] is always accepted! :-)

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 20:46

Wine even.

Lolcbcblemonlime · 02/09/2012 20:49

Nic what have you read about conceive plus? Was thinking of buying bit not sure there is any point?

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 21:06

Hi Lol...that it acts like EWCM and assists the swimmers on the way to target! Some people swear by it.

This is the third cycle of it sitting in the bloody bedside drawer. I pulled the foil off last cycle. Only for Bri to refuse to use it. Sigh. Maybe I'll lube myself later then lure him in :-/ Not how I envisioned using it!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 02/09/2012 21:08

Yeah I don't see DH signing up to it either. Would have to do it myself and pretend I'm extra in the mood!!!
Think I'll wait another month and see how I feel. Have u thought of using it without telling DH?

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 21:12

I have...but he likes, ummm, licking, shall we say?! Would just have to thrust him in so he doesn't get a mouthful, ha ha! TMI?

Talyra · 02/09/2012 21:19

Yay for smiley Nick! The Conceive Plus stuff does sound a bit odd!

peardrop2 · 02/09/2012 22:26

Slight disaster tonight! DTD and the goodies decided to come out b4 I had the chance to wave legs in air. Epic fail Shock Sad and Angry

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 22:36

Doesn't mean that it all came out...only takes 1!

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 06:33

Didn't DTD...H2B went sleep on the sofa while I was waiting for him!

Oddly, felt a popping sensation in my left ovary yesterday and no more pain today. Was that eggy breaking free?!

letsdothisthing · 03/09/2012 07:24

Hi Rachel and welcome aboard :)

May invest in some conceive plus too, anythings worth a try I suppose!

Sorry you didn't get to DTD one more time Nicola - do you think you're in the 2ww yet?

Pear, I also had a epic fail earlier this month, lets say sneezing does not help with keeping it in either! Blush

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 07:33

Hi lets!

I think I am in the 2WW now, potentially...though if what I felt was eggy escaping, I suppose I have one more shot at catching it today. I'll have to jump Bri as soon as I get home. Then lie down as he cooks dinner!

Some people say it's Conceive Plus that was the one change which led to pregnancy, so anything is worth a try!

Hi rachel, come on in!!

We spent the day in London yesterday so didn't manage to DTD yesterday. Smiley and DTD on Saturday and will get my way tonight (I will!) but having a strop it's not enough. Feel a bit bad for DP as we were tired when we got in at like 2am but just don't feel he puts the effort in when it matters. He cannot claim he is overworked since that first cycle!

Ok, and now I will be calm and rational again!

Don't worry pear! I read in Taking charge of your fertility that it doesn't matter if they fall over after sex as enough will get up during. Got another neg today! Sending DH out to buy fresh supply of pregnancy tests. Any high st recs? Fertility friend is saying I'm due on period tomorrow but I don't think I'm due until Thursday, although admittedly that would be a long luteal phase. Tomorrow will be 15DPO. No more blood has appeared. I think he needs to get the "early pregnancy tests" type as they're more sensitive.

Superdrug ones are highly regarded on here. Otherwise, first response can tell up to 6 days before but it's still not a certainty that far in advance.

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 08:11

Get the Superdrug 2 x 2 pack for 7.99. They're good :-)

Bugger re BFN though. Fx for the next test.

Lolcbcblemonlime · 03/09/2012 08:21

LOL Nic and the mouthful!! That would have been hilarious. Well I'm going to look for it today. How much is it on shops rather than online? Don't have time to wait lol.
I'm nervous about shag fest this week as DH doesn't like to feel under pressure so I have to make out I'm extra horny (hence conceive plus).
I've been taking epo and it's supposed to increase cm but I'm feeling extra dry this month? (sorry tmi). Any idea why?

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 08:26

Ah, you and me both on the dryness front. Odd, eh?

It's 12 quid online for CP, another few quid in the shops, I think. I think I may just use it tonight and, like you, pretend it's just natural as I'm gagging for it!

The things we do :-/

Today I hate TTC! I'm home alone allay and I can tell I will be moody cos things aren't going my way!

What's the other one that isn't CP? Sure someone mentioned another one before.

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 09:08

It's Pre-seed...nasty name if you ask me!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 03/09/2012 09:19

I heard pre seed is too runny and erm.... Sticky after a while? Im more tempted with conceive plus! That is my plan for today and stick it on without saying anything Blush
Nic why u think dryness? U on epo as well?

peardrop2 · 03/09/2012 09:22

£15 something in Boots

peardrop2 · 03/09/2012 09:25

I use conceive plus. On the second tube now. Obviously has not worked otherwise I would be up the duff :) its fine to use though. It helps with dryness and quick DTD sessions more then anything!

NickiNockiNoodle · 03/09/2012 09:43

No idea, Lol, weather? I'm not on EPO, no. Think I've run out after last cycle! :-/
