Hi ladies and especially newcomers! Trying to stress as little as possibly this month. DP being v supportive and bless him is going to dr for this months supply of Viagra so we can Dtd every other day around ovulation. Just using the ovulation calculator and opk's as I think I ovulate towards the end of what the calculator says are my fertile days. Last month it was cd17. I suppose it will be likely to be that this month too? I will still use them from day 12 and start our deed doing around that time too. Fx for all of us. X

chocolateteabag · 16/10/2012 21:59

Hi granny apple, we took DS to London zoo on Saturday - was also not overly impressed. Some of the fish looked to be dead, one definitely was! The penguins and meercats looked happyish but everything else felt a bit trapped.

Feel bad now for helping them keep going by paying money over tbh

Af finally stopped today which fels like progress, going to start poas soon.

Pixie001 · 16/10/2012 22:22

Thanks for the reassurance esme, ginger, chookford, perhaps it isn't so odd, bless him...

There's always another month so I'm gonna try and chill and be relaxed about it and not obsess for now!! That way hopefully it takes pressure off and what will be will be. It's so easy to get caught up and lose perspective, for cycle 1 that's probably not healthy! Smile

Thanks for the cream cake ginger now gonna have to hit a few gym sessions to work it off!

Gingerpanther27 · 17/10/2012 00:17

I know that feeling pixie just polished off most of a family sized bag of sensations Blush Shock by myself.... The waistline will not appreciate it my excuse boredom whilst waiting for hair dye to develop Hmm will tell better in the morning if I am ginger or blonde Hmm attempting to go back to natural colour (honey butterscotchy blonde) finally plucked up -balls- courage to do it last night to discover 20 min later that the wrong developer was in the box cos staff at shop cbf putting right tubes in right box Angry so my hair went almost black in places so taking it light before to toning it back down -I might have to wear a hat all day tomorrow- sorry just having a rant at the smallest things Blush tww is agonising :( hence the hair getting done when the BFP arrives it won't be getting dyed

TakingTheStairs · 17/10/2012 09:13

Morning all.
Wow, that is some drama with your hair Ginger. Hope the colour turned out okay.

Hai1988 · 17/10/2012 10:38

Morning all, feeling s bit sicky this morning, dunno if its in my head or what but just have a.good feeling this.month. thing is i have no idea if i have oved yet or not on cycle day 12 but last month had ashort cycle of just 20 days so.not sure whats going on.
Have been using the cheap opks but have yet to pick up a positive on them, but only started using them a few days ago so think i either oved very early or it hasnt happened yet and im imaging things.

Hope everyone is ok this morning

TakingTheStairs · 17/10/2012 12:29

Fingers crossed for you Hai. If your cycle was that short last month, it could be good news already!

JellyCurls · 17/10/2012 12:29

Afternoon Ladies, thought I would give you an update on my baby making scientific experiment. I have given up the grapefruit juice for the moment as it was vile and gave me heartburn but main reason was I ran out and coudnt be bothered going to the shop for more. Maybe do that this afternoon though. I will be taken my last dose of Soy isoflavones tonight, hooray, but am already noticing some intersting side effects. AF has all but gone and already I have an noticeable increase in cm (tmi I know - sorry). Headaches have also cleared, thankfully..

Hopefully you are all having a lovely day

Hai1988 · 17/10/2012 12:39

Ok today is getting werid, can not be imaging the constant dizzyness! Nearly everytime i have stood up today i.feel really dizzy and faint?! Whats going on?

Might go to the docs and have my blood pressure checked.

Also having werid stabbing pains (although not really painfull) in my lower sides not sure what that is weather its ov pain or what?

Good luck with the soy jelly and think i.might get some grapefriuts and juice next time i vist the shops.

Thanks for the fx taking

TakingTheStairs · 17/10/2012 13:54

Hai if you have already ovulated, it could be implantation pains?
eek!

Jellycurls inteeeresting. I might have started on the grapefruit juice after seeing you mention it. And I have started to see results too, though that obviously could just be coincidence Hmm

OP posts:
JellyCurls · 17/10/2012 14:28

Oh taking I never thought that the juice could be increasing the cm I put it down to the soy iso.... stuff. Def going to the shop for more grapefruit juice on way home. In the interests of scienctific research I will continue

Gingerpanther27 · 17/10/2012 15:45

Afternoon all thanks taking I was just having really bad day dealing with council so I was having a bitch reorganising my thoughts with enthusiasm (whilst being constructive with my time Grin) about anything that pissed me off royally further frustrated me anyway how is everyone?

Grannyapple · 18/10/2012 08:23

Thanks for adding me littlepink

Not much to report here...cd3 so hoping it buggers off soon so we can get back on it! Also family head home today, so looking forward to getting own bed back & suitably ignoring ds when he talks in his sleep in his own room (not so easy to ignore when we're in Sam room as him Grin. Wedding anniversary too on Sunday so hoping for a chilled w/e...

Hai1988 · 18/10/2012 08:32

Morning all :)

Hope everyone is well

Its so.annoying being in limbo.land not knowing! I dyed my hair last night and as i was sat waiting to rinse it occerd to me that should i really be doing this if i cud be pg?

I know i.need to chill out and relax so someone give me a slap

TakingTheStairs · 18/10/2012 09:29

Hai I say this with love... chill out!!!! Wink

Even if you were pregnant you can still dye your hair! The amount of dye/chemicals is not enough to seep in through your skin and into your bloodstream.
According to the NHS website
"Some studies have found that very high doses of the chemicals in hair dyes may cause harm. However, these doses are massive compared to the very low amount of chemicals that a woman colouring her hair is exposed to."

AWomanCalledHorse · 18/10/2012 09:35

Hai (in a nice way), if you've always got short cycles you should note down them for a few months & go to your GP (if you don't get a BFP this month that is!), as it could be a sign that you may need ttc.
Having said that I've had really short luteal phases since having DS, so don't stress and worry you'll deffo need help, it's just something you should be aware of.
Your symptoms sound promising!

Jelly, increased CM is great! Drinking grapefruit juice is no so great.

Ginger, I would be fuming if that were my hair! and the council (always bastards!!), hope you have a better day today!

teabag, I worked at London Zoo a few years ago, and after 1 day there I had to quit as it was upsetting seeing such depressed animals (they didn't treat the humans any better), hope DS had a good day anyhoo!

Hai1988 · 18/10/2012 09:48

Thanks ladies just the slap i need.

I am currently in the docs waiting room, thought i wud just check about the dizzynesd cys it was constant yestetday.

Thinking maybe i should ask for a blood test cus i cant wair much longer to find out Blush

Wud pg show up in a blood test this early on?

Also how long do results normally take to get bk.to. you?

Angie607 · 18/10/2012 09:52

Hi lovelys, any room for me? Feeling a little sorry for myself as nothing going right just recently as DTD like a trooper all last month and nothing happened so started again now, due mid month so ill go for 12 nov?
Spent a fortune on early response tests last month so this month I'm determined to save that last IC untill af is due!
Xx

Hai1988 · 18/10/2012 09:59

Hi angie welcome :)

LexiLoganberry · 18/10/2012 10:02

Hello everyone, thought I'd hop aboard the new bus

Can't be added to the list yet as my cycle is a somewhat messed up, will get added later down the line when I think I've ovulated and can estimate bfp due date.

TakingTheStairs · 18/10/2012 10:18

Hi Lexi, sorry to see you here (iykwim) but welcome to the bus.
Hi Angie, hop on board. Sorry last month didn't work for you Fx this will be the month.

Thanks taking I do know what you mean.

Pixie001 · 18/10/2012 11:19

Hai hope goes ok today-let us know. Always good to get things checked out-for peace of mind if nothing else.

After my previous over-reaction, all is now going fine. Flaking out was a one-off and no probs last couple of nights. Grin I know everyone's cycles are different but how long shud we keep SIE (shagging in earnest!) for? Ov Tues so day 14 I think from symptoms. Day 16 now and I'm normally 28/9 cycle.

How's the hair ginger?!

Hai1988 · 18/10/2012 12:05

Doctor said that blood presures fine and im not inemic ect so she had no idea what was causing the dizzyness
