My DH came back from work in the afternoon looking really tired. I said I have a present to cheer you up. At first he said he didn't want a present but I made him close his eyes and then I put the cb stick in his hand for him to read. Once it registeted what the stick said he then looked a bit pale hah hah! He is still in shock. We just saw a very pregnant lady in Homebase and he went a bit pale again...hah hah. Men are so funny!

Bless. That is cute. Men are funny sometimes.
I have a bit of a stupid question Blush
A while ago I heard somewhere that having a wee after sex helps u avoid getting pg.
What I want to know is- has anyone ever heard this? And if that's the case how long do I need to wait until I can have a wee?
Today I stayed in bed for just over an hour, about 20 mins of that with legs up. Was bursting for a pee and just been so under 2 hours.
Also did opk now and the line is there. Could the result be masked by (ahem) sperm in my wee?

DulcetMoans · 09/09/2012 14:42

I don't think it can affect the result as the test looks for a chemical, not sperm. I can't say for sure but I don't think it should be a factor.

NickiNockiNoodle · 09/09/2012 14:43

Lol...I think you're probably safe after 2 hours as the ones which are going to make it are already well on the way to target!

Also, sperm won't mask the LH hormone as they aren't made up of the necessary stuff. :-)

Just ordered bubbles for our guests instead of confetti, and little personalised tags to attach to them. Good job I finish the Tuesday before. And have an Aussie house guest with me to assist with filling the favours and tying tags to things! I am SO bloody excited now!

GeordieRachel · 09/09/2012 16:03

Pear!! Woohoooo!

That is fantastic news. You must be thrilled to bits!

Um, yeah, got a bit smashed at the wedding. Eek! Ah well, a good time was had by all.

AF due tomorrow, back to the gym & eating healthily. Having a hangover makes me eat so badly Blush

I'm changing my name to a fruity one tomorrow Wink

NickiNockiNoodle · 09/09/2012 16:05

Glad you had fun at the wedding, Rachel!

I'll change mine - again - next cycle to something fruity if no joy!

GeordieRachel · 09/09/2012 16:19

Nic, they had bubbles at the wedding yesterday. They were lush & the children loved them

BBQ for the food (thank goodness it stayed dry!)

NickiNockiNoodle · 09/09/2012 16:24

We don't have many kids...plenty of adults who'll approve though :-)

I'm glad someone has experience of them. The photos will be so fab with them in!

We have a standard sit down meal for 32, then about 90 for the evening.

GeordieRachel · 09/09/2012 16:41

Nice!

We're making notes of the things we like from weddings we've been to for when the time comes Smile

DulcetMoanslovesNectarine · 09/09/2012 16:50

I realised that was another fruity BFP so I have given up and added to mine in the hopes I can egg on a BFP this week!

Bubbles is good nic, I will squirrel it away in the idea book too! Wink

GeordieRachel · 09/09/2012 16:56

Fx for the fruity name Dulcet!

I'm making a list of records we want played too Smile

peardrop2 · 09/09/2012 17:07

I love bubbles :) Also like your new name Dulcet ;)

Our DJ lets us and guests go online to choose songs. It's rather good!

We are putting blank CDs on the evening tables for guests to burn their photos to. There's an address label inside the post-friendly cardboard holder for ease. Just needs a stamp. Not bothering with disposable cameras as most people have digital ones anyway.

NickiNockiNoodle · 09/09/2012 17:13

Ooh...didn't notice the name! Nice one, Dulcet!

As it's officially too late this cycle, I'll wait til next time if it doesn't happen this one. :-/

peardrop2 · 09/09/2012 17:19

Name change could be implantation luck :)

OP posts:
NickiNockiNoodle · 09/09/2012 17:21

Hmmm...OK!

GeordieRachel · 09/09/2012 17:21

Ooh I love that idea Nic!

Hope no-one chooses John Cage, hahaha!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 09/09/2012 17:26

I only realised today that we have another fruit bfp! I'll stick to my lemon and lime and see what happens Smile
I think I'm having more ov pains. Quite sore!
Nic are testing at 10dpo? That's wed andI'll still be here to see it as only travel at noon. Pretty please Smile
Are u having the scan pear? How's the cramping?

kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 09/09/2012 17:31

I think the DJ uses his discretion if somebody chooses a shit song! :-)

And I was already considering Wednesday, Lol, so just for you I'll do an internet cheapie!

peardrop2 · 09/09/2012 17:32

NickiNockiNectarine?

Lol I don't know if the doctor will scan me now. I am thinking of going anyway as I would like to talk to her about the cramping even though I'm being assured by Mclairey that it's normal which helps!

OP posts:
peardrop2 · 09/09/2012 17:33

Oooh I like glory cherry :)

OP posts:
kNickerbockerGloryCherry · 09/09/2012 17:40

I'd still go if I were you...you can get some reassurance. Can always say you only found out that morning so you didn't like to cancel at short notice. But now you've found out, you're worried about the cramping, which you had thought / hoped was AF until you POAS!

DulcetMoanslovesNectarine · 09/09/2012 17:42

Yay! All the fruit! Changing it back if it doesn't work though. (haha, if it doesn't work! What world am I living in?! This isn't how babies are made!)

I don't want to wait anymore! Feel weird and hate that around this time as its all second guessing.

Lolcbcblemonlime · 09/09/2012 17:43

Like the new name nic. Yay for poas on wed!!
Pear I don't want to scare u sweetie but cramping is not always ok. I had it and thought this is what being pg feels like and was later told by the doctor that I should have gone to them earlier. I don't think in my case it would have made a difference and I don't for one minute think the same will happen to you but get it checked.
I even dreamt about u last night ( funny cause I don't know what u look like!) as I'm worried and want u and your baby to be ok. Might be slight over reaction on my part Blush but I know all the shit u went through want to know u both ok x
