Just come off the pill after 6 years following birth of my second ds. I'm 38 now so maybe a little bit old to hope for a BFP first month off! Oh well, feeling v nauseous and have a strong aversion to peanut butter....so maybe, just maybe. (fingers crossed...and legs open!)

ella0 · 25/09/2012 17:32

Ooh, do tooty fruities still exist? I haven't had them since I was a child!

I'm still getting weird cramp type feelings on and off. They now feel like a burning feeling (not painful though). I might be imagining them though!

PurpleGeekyGirl · 25/09/2012 18:03

hanikam I am 38 too (ttc %232 after 10 year gap with new partner)

LittleMissSnowShine · 25/09/2012 19:04

tooty fruities...nom!! good energy food for everyone still on the shagathon express line ;)

woody17 · 25/09/2012 19:58

waves and smiles they do sound a lot like pg symptoms but I know how easy it is to symptom spot! FX you get a BFP soon.

shineypeacock your symptoms sounds very promising as well.

violetcherry from what I understand it's good to try and dtd as often as you can around the time of ov.

FX for you hanikam

Well I am on CD3 and the bleeding from mc has nearly stopped so hopefully we will be about to ttc again soon.

pocopearl · 25/09/2012 20:33

Hi all, am reluctantly swinging over from the sept thread. AF still not arrived but am on CD 40/33 with BFN's left right & centre so am thinking its only a matter of time. How is everyone getting on?

Sad
JellyCurls · 26/09/2012 08:52

Good morning ladies, hope you are all well this morning. This 2ww is dragging in (7 dpo today) made worse by the most annoying cough in the world. Least its taking my mind off my lack of symptoms to spot

TakingTheStairs · 26/09/2012 09:03

Good morning jellycurls and everyone else.
I thought it was Friday when I was woke up this morning, I was very disappointed when I realised that it was only Wednesday.
Trying not to think about the 2ww, 3dpo today. No symptoms either.
My friend pointed this site out to me yesterday. The calculator gives a bit more of a breakdown as to what days you should start to see symptoms, what your date of implantation is likely to be etc. I found it helpful, so I thought you guys might too.

Welcome to the bus pocopearl. Sorry to hear a BFP is unlikely in Sept for you, but I have my fingers crossed for you for October.

stickybeans why the sad face? Is everything okay?

OP posts:
chookford · 26/09/2012 10:06

Morning everyone!

Sticky are you ok?
Poco welcome to the bus, fx for Oct!
Hanikam keep up the good work!
Taking thanks for the site, fx we are all going to have good news soon!
Jellycurls hope thwe cough clears soon, but at least it is taking you mind off the wait!
Woody Woohoo hopefully full steam ahead and your back ttc very soon!
Ella & littlemiss yes jelly tots do still exist and the rule!!!

Right I have made a Lemon Drizzle Cake today... any takers?!

wavesandsmiles · 26/09/2012 10:26

Good morning all. chookford lemon drizzle cake sounds YUM, and the perfect accompaniment to my coffee (still heaving at the thought of a cup of tea).

Meant to be doing serious house packing this evening - I wish I could wake up in 2 weeks and it be the 9 October so I can POAS and also be in the position that my house has packed itself up and the contents moved to new house. Would avoid the lengthy 2ww and the horror of packing/sorting!

chookford · 26/09/2012 10:37

Waves yes that would be great wouldnt it! also be able to fast forward the first 12 weeks after a bfp would be fantastic to just be able to relax and enjoy the pg..... I know you shouldnt wish your life away but this is bloody stressful! Hope the move goes well... and in two weeks you get a BFP! We are testing around the same time so if we are lucky we will be 12 weeks around Christmas/New Year.. that would be lovely, wouldnt it! FX!

TakingTheStairs · 26/09/2012 10:44

Ooooh chookford lemon drizzle cake. yes please! Though it won't really help with the Weight Watchers plan. Sod it, I got a silver seven on Monday, pass that cake!

wavesandsmiles Packing is a PITA but at least it will distract you a bit.. and new house; super exciting. I'm currently stalking rightmove for houses, though we won't be in a position to move for at least a year Sad

OP posts:
chookford · 26/09/2012 10:48

haha here you go Taking

I am the same, I spend most of my working day on rightmove, we are hoping to move next year too as dh is hopefully going to be made redundant we will have enough for a deposit and also we need more bedrooms if we do have another little one next year! I am desperate to move really need more space!

PurpleGeekyGirl · 26/09/2012 11:22

Morning all Grin

I like the link to that OV chart, especially as it shows that my child free weekend is exactly when we want to be dtd this cycle, yay.

I've got a huge portion of Nigella's delicious nutella cheesecake to share. It's obscenely good and not at all fattening in the slightest, I mean LOOK at NIgella!!

TakingTheStairs · 26/09/2012 11:35

Nutella Cheesecake.. wowzers!!!

VioletCherry · 26/09/2012 11:40

thanks woody we DTD around the time when I thought I had ovulated, mainly due to EWCM. But unfortunately didn't have a chance over the following weekend when I experienced ovulation cramps. Was looking for some opinions whether cramps occurred before during or after ovulation. As I don't use OPK was hoping for others experiences.

chookford · 26/09/2012 11:40

Yes we have the same Taking a very large 2 bedroom flat, but with kids I really need a garden and a drive and more bedrooms!! fx we get the babies and the house next year!

TakingTheStairs · 26/09/2012 11:43

violetcherry As far as I know, they occur afterwards.
