Forgot to say thanks for updating the list. I have trouble doing it on my phone.

I'll just quietly sit at the back of the bus...hope that's ok. Smile I ov late in my cycle (usually day 16-18). Got smiley face day before yesterday. We dtd both yesterday and the day before, so hoping something will come of it. Not yet getting my hopes up, though.
Got ConceivePlus as well, but currently prefer Preseed, because I can measure out the amount I want to use with the applicator.

Thatssofunny, TTC #1, cycle 14, AF/BFP due 28th Feb/1st March

Hi bus chums! Busy week and I forgot I was on this bus Grin lol

My brother in law proposed to his girlfriend yesterday... They have a 1 year old little boy already. So happy for them but now I'm desperate to make my own announcement!

Weng out for v-day meal with hubby last night and we are both v excited about TTC and having a baby so that's good.

Having only come off the pill recently I'm a bit out of touch with my cycle and not sure where I am. We dtd when I THINK I was ovulating. AF due in a weeks time.

I'm in 2 frames of mind right now

  1. hoping AF doesn't come, take a test... BFP!

  2. AF comes+goes so we can crack on with DTD as much as poss next month!!!

    Haha we'll see! Grin

gillian1986 I'm in the same boat, I've just come off of the pill and I'm waiting for my cycles to go back to normal. I haven't had a normal cycle in sooo long!

navis176 I hate it, but use it anyway. I swear they've changed the formula, it used to be a lot runnier.

I'm on CD8 now, and time seems to be going at a snails pace - I want this month to hurry the hell up! DS is being very cute, which is only making the broodiness worse.

Good luck to all those in their shagging weeks Grin

hi ladies, nice to see some new faces (waves).
Im being rubbish this month! Its ov week and we didnt dtd on wed but i guess we did each other day, was hoping to dtd this morning but OH said no Sad
On the plus side Im taking extra b6 and feel so much more chilled and relaxed, did say to the OH we cant make a baby if we dont have enough sex.....doh. To be fair I guess dtd 7 times so far on cd16 isnt too bad, FX he has long living sperm lol.

Mmm I like oreo's :)

I'm in! Technically AF should come around 26/27 of this month but IF she's late I'm going to try my best not to test until early March.

I'm ttc #4 for me and #1 for dp,
this is our first month of seriously calculated trying,
We're trying to follow Dr Shettles method for one of the blue variety (Dp's request) but it doesn't really matter - health is more important.
The final deposit of swimmers have been sent in today - so we're done for this month ;)
Let the waiting and hoping, the symptom spotting (but absolutely not testing nor convincing myself) and the paranoia commence Hmm

Good luck to everyone x

Hi all,
Am probably being over-sensitive with symptom spotting, and not sure if these are signs of ovulation or (very) early PG anyway:
Stonking headache lasting all day (although has gone this evening)
Sore boobs
Bloated tummy - like bad trapped wind (sorry!).
Any ideas? Am I just over analysing?
Haven't managed to DTD as much as hoped this week - DD joined us in bed last night which prevented any early morning action (usually our most successful time of day!). Fingers crossed we can make up for it tonight/this weekend. Am on CD12 and half way through cycle so am hoping I'm still in with a chance?

Right ladies, I need your advice...
Dh seems to be having issues with keeping his flag raised iykwim. I was hoping we'd manage to dtd before he headed off on his work trip but we tried on wed (my birthday) and thurs morn but now he feels he has a problem it seems to be making it worse. He was really Sad bless him. I think pressure's getting to him coz he know how much I'd love dc.
What do I do?

sorelip yep, only since ttc. It's happened over last couple mths and now he thinks it's a problem it's worse as he's thinking and worrying about it. Not sure of right things to say to stop the downward spiral and make it better. I just always thought we'd dtd whenever required, never imagined this kinda issue

Good luck to all those in shag week. Dh is still away so desprately trying to cling on to my egg. Maybe things will be better when he's back and had a break.

It's the beginning of shag week here.
Writing this from a hotel room - had booked a romantic night and dinner at hotel with OH but so far complete disaster!
I forgot half of my belongings, OH started an argument during the main course, OH then over-ate and so immediately fell asleep back in the room leaving me to watch movie on my own. He is now snoring away, having killed the evening.
So frustrated!

dondon33 · 17/02/2013 07:55

Hi all :)
So sorry Kat and good luck with the GP. x

Pixie - is it possible you could keep him out of things, like not mention you're testing, ovulation etc... Obviously still monitor yourself and when the time's right seduce him. Maybe he won't realise at first, probably will after the 3rd consecutive day :) but by then you'll have lots of swimmers.
Going a bit deeper nowBlush - what if you just gave him a BJ or HJ sometimes and at his point of no return - jump on him to collect the goods? maybe it would help take the performance pressure off. I know it's far from romantic but sometimes needs must!

Delia - Oh no! sorry your night didn't go as planned and your OH killed the evening - make him pay for it today and tell him you need a double dose, he should have enough energy after being a little piggy to complete his punishment Grin

Good luck all in shag week and those in the 2ww x

Ah pixie how frustrating for you. Great advice from dondon though. Its just the pressure of it all. You've gotta leave him out of all the ttc stuff. So difficult though. Rly hope things improve.
delia omg u must have been fuming! No chance for some cheeky morning bd'ing?!
Good luck to everyone else who's ovulating! I've had 2 +opk's so b'ding every night atm! Def more than we have on previous months! X

We've been rubbish this month, had 2 days off during ov week....doubt that bodes well! The extra vit b6 is defo helping this month though, I feel so calm and have a much better attitude Smile a very much what will be will be type feeling, I think my chances this month are slim which sucks as Ive put in the time with all the vits both me and the OH have been taking, but we were crap as the sex part, never gonna make a baby without sex lol.
FX for everyone! Grin

Cupcakes! did you say cupcakes? Mmmm :)
Welcome and good luck for March Ariel

I'm going to go all TMI now but if it helps any of you then it's worth it :)

So Dp and I are attempting to follow Dr Shettles advice to conceive a boy (dp really) and one of his pieces of advice is for the woman to orgasm after the sperm is deposited ( this alone won't give you all a boy)
Anyway, I tried this on our last go of the month and lay still afterwards for around 1 hour and.....something strange, it does seem to suck up ALL of the sperm :) Usually after DTD as soon as I stand then 'it's' running down my legs (told you tmi!) and feels like more has ran out than actually what went in. It's been 2/3 days since we last dtd and only NOW!!! is it beginning to come back out.
Possibly I have a cervix of steel and once I've sucked it up there it's held hostage but I doubt it- it's worth a try don't you think?
