We filled the last one so I thought I would start no 2.

Nicola does it hurt to touch or is the fire feeling coming from within if that makes any sense? Can't believe I'm asking you to explain your fire feelings in your chest lol

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 15:32

That's my theory though. Suddenly you notice every single twinge more in the 2ww because you LOOK for it.

Not helpful in the least but it's the only reason to explain why all of a sudden I notice things that I've never noticed before.

NicolaHazel · 15/08/2012 15:36

Both, Newbie.

Nipples feel like jogger's nipples.

Hurts to touch the sides.

And the sides ache too.

The whole lot was buzzing / tingling too, since Sat. Different, but just as bad, now.

Ohhhh all the "so when are you guys gonna have kids" questions are really ramping up now we've been married a while. It really does my head in - one friend in particular seems to ask me every couple of weeks, usually whilst pointing out that I'm getting on a bit in ttc terms. Oh yeah and last week, on finding out how long I'd been on the pill, my brother piped up with the incredibly helpful "14 years?? you ain't ever getting pregnant....!". Thanks bro. Angry

A work colleague has just announced she's pregnant with twins. So that is two ladies in my immediate office area, both pregnant with twins EnvyEnvyEnvy

I agree that we should ALL get our BFPs this month - let's kill this thread with one chop! Nicola - you're up first! :o

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 15:49

Ouch on the twins.

Why don't you tell the truth though? I've stopped the uncomfortable questions by answering that we ARE trying, but thank you very much some of us take longer than others.

I have also told people to stop asking and when it happens, I will tell them.

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 15:52

And and yes, I get free tickets for me and 2 mates forever to attend the cinema whenever I want with my nooooo job.

I have just received the contract.

I want to cancel everything else. I am HAPPY with this offer

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 15:53

And 28 days holiday

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 15:55

last one

And they sent 2 free tickets with my contract...

frustratedpants · 15/08/2012 15:56

Okay, Ive got a really stoopid basic question. How long is the average "fertile" period, eg how many days either side of +OPK guesstimated O day?
Aka how long to take the egg to pop?

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 16:02

I already said this on the other thread in lots more detail but in essence, you never know when the egg will drop but after the smiley face, it could be anywhere up to 7 days

But it also may not drop then at all and you may land up ovulating again later in the month

frustratedpants · 15/08/2012 16:07

Thanks kick I'm having a thick day. Grin

frustratedpants · 15/08/2012 16:09

Free cinema tickets with a job contract. Grin darn it why can't I get benefits like that?

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 16:17

I am having a lazy day and I feel bad for it already. I am also ignoring my phone completely!

Kittenkatzen · 15/08/2012 16:18

I don't really want everyone knowing, mostly because my family are the type who would just blatantly ignore any request to butt out and wait to be told! The jokes about DH firing blanks/me being a barren wasteland (hahaha Hmm)would be endless.

Wow kick - 28 days holiday for a ten month contract?? That's immense! Sign it right now just for that! :o

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 16:20

Ah fortunately my family feel sorry for me because I nearly died so they are being kind. But the barren wasteland sounds familiar!!

Yeh it's a bit...wow-ish! I've never had that many holidays like...EVER! Hurrah!

Oh and you can start taking them immediately. Erm.

Whut?!

woody17 · 15/08/2012 16:27

Sounds like you get some good perks/benefits kick

We have lots of pressure from both sets of parents! And we do get lots of questions/comments from friends.

Still feeling bleugh Sad

redstrawberry · 15/08/2012 16:36

I am still thinking of good responses to "get a move on". I am thinking of "fuck off" being the most appropriate but not a very civilized one.

Free cinema tickets! wooohoooo you are now my best friend Kick Grin...
no but seriously have you seen the prices of cinema tickets these days! Sooo bloody expensive. If you take me I will share my free popcorn, hot dog or nachos offer with you.

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 16:42

Yeh "get a move on" warrants "fuck off" or perhaps "when were aiming for that full frontal lobotomy then? Get a move on!"

Ooooh it can be the girls' night out!

I only have one friend to take as well (my DH).... I am sad Grin

woody17 · 15/08/2012 16:56

Someone offered to buy us a copy of a sex book as we obviously weren't 'doing it right' as I still wasn't pregnant!

redstrawberry · 15/08/2012 17:00

Right - today I've just about had enough of work - time to go home and have a cuppa herbal tea

nic I had boobs on fire with my cp last month. At least I know now if I have tingly firy boobs it might be a good sign. I never had them like that before.

Newbie2 · 15/08/2012 17:24

red I was trying to remember who else said they had fire boobs...of coarse it was you.

Newbie2 · 15/08/2012 17:26

My boss just asked me what my hobbies are...all I could think of was babies, babies, babies!!! Had to quickly blurt out shopping, how lame!

frustratedpants · 15/08/2012 17:29

Grin newbie did you think for POAS afterwards?

I always spout rubbish about writing poetry which I have done since I was at uni

RIBS · 15/08/2012 17:35

@woody. Please see @whenshewas's stories of incorrect sex. Tell me your dp isn't jizzing in your belly button! [Grin]

@nic. There's always an exception to the rule. Iv said before my best friends bfp took a week to turn up. She is never late. She's now 6 months pregnant.(green emoticon isn't green enough) I know its the being in limbo that's the worst. How many dpo are you?

I feel a bit left out this month, I normally have sore boobs but haven't got a thing. I'm prob about 11 dpo. The only time I get tingly boobs tho is when I am pregnant.

Also if you're dizzy, midwife told me to wiggle my toes it helps blood circulate or something.

KickTheGuru · 15/08/2012 17:36

RIBS I am certain I have not been fertilised this month. You can have the sore knockers though?
