Morning everyone,
I thought I'd start a Fred here documenting the first part of the eggs movements. Now, before I actually start I'll just say I'm not even yet pregnant so I'll babble on about every wasted egg too! I'm not obsessed but find writing things down easier than telling my already bored with a glazed over look on his face, husband. Im not asking you to reply but it would be fab if anyone would and welcome added input from everyone, whether you're TTC, already pregnant, or interested in reading about someone else's current efforts to get up duffed!
Right, are we all sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin.
A little about me. 30, married for 5 years, been together longer than a decade and came off pill jan 1st in anticipation. Taking folic acid amongst other vits and generally doing my very best to entice the swimmers into signing a 9 month tenency agreement. Husband is also 30 and trying not to get too excited as he knows as soon as he does, I'll be! Then it all goes to pot.
Ok, so as I've said jan 1st came off pill expecting to a)either fall pg straight away or b) take a good few months to really get back into the swing of things. I've been on the pill since I was 15 so was pleasantly surprised I went straight back into a 28 day cycle. Thought it may be a fluke, but no, feb saw the same activity! Then came march!! March bloody madness more like.
This month I'm a baby making looney tune! My body has led me down every emotional pathway, tricking me into thinking I'm pg. 2 tests later, both BFN I now imagine its getting me back for 15 years of no PMS symptoms! I've had them all.
It started with a kiss being so bloated that I resembled aunt petunia after Harry blew her up, working its way to wind that would rival the saharan summer nights, boobs are wonky, massive hard and itchy nips. I've felt the ovaries release, the ( in my imagination) implantation pain which was awful, the spotting, could be cataracts and seeing things, the nausea... Cooking mistakes and the crying at the smallest things, thousand hint OBEM last night was not helpful.
I've got the blue veins showing in the boob and so much CM I feel like I'm on a slip'n'slide (tmi)!
I've even got the stuffy nose and (grasping at straws here) its apparently a pg sign...albeit a small one. Who knew?
So AF is due to visit tomorrow should my 28 day cycle carry on, she's coming for 4 days making herself a general PITA but no pain, no gain eh? So for the next 4 days I'll be a sweaty, crampy, moaning harpie and after that expect OH to fancy me again.
Sorry if you've lost interested or I've killed a thread before even starting, but I'll keep at it and hopefully it'll pick up, turn into something more exciting or provide a place for others to say 'hey that happened to me too'.
See you on t'uther side.

ps, f**k dp, i will know if i get the job saturday 
and if we dont stay together then so be it, i will know im doing the best for my 2 dc (who are Not his)
little he is a commitmentphobe! he is a nice bloke, dont get me wrong, Two steps forward and one step back type lol.
i will be 39 in 8months time and had discussed (we did discuss ttc, although his manbrain only hears sex without protection) and we did agree that i would only ttc until i was 39, as i dont want to be much older than that for having DC#3. so the implant decission would only be 8months early iykwim.
One of the reasons for dp/db not living with me besides his mum is money, i have none as i havent been working for 4 months, and he has commitments for his money that wouldnt cover us together at the moment if i wasnt working. which if fair enough.
On a lighter note, i got the job and he is over the moon! he knew id get it man knowledge i start a week tomorrow.
little chef job, 20 hours start week tomorrow 
and can somebody please send the witch to visit me, i know that sounds wrong considering the thread we are on, but due to new job and increasing addled brain from dp/b i think that the best option would be that i let her visit and then hopefully she will miss out visiting one of you all
metime - great news about the job and yes, hope the witch visits you soon!
ginger and minion - I'm liking the Friday night drinks idea!! Although my DP has a female friend who is driving me INSANE and I've just found out that she's also gatecrashing our night out tonight..... I was envisaging some nice drinks at a pub, maybe a bit of dinner, but turns out no, she wants to come too so we have to go to the manky local. I am sooooo annoyed but what can I say?! Have yet to find a way of saying I don't want her to go without sounding like a horrible jealous cow.....
Sitting here with my phone switched off so he can't phone me and ask me to pick her up. Childish I know but I'm having to spend the time calming down!
Happy Friday to you all and I hope you enjoy the wine (and tequila!)
cd 30 no sign of any visitors...last month had 31 cds.
Dispite His odd chat waffling i think he would be over the moon if i had got pg, in his words he doesnt like change personally i think he is scared of changes in life, due to never leaving home, never having worried about money, never left the company he works with in past 25years. so i just think he has dipped in and out of life but never truly experienced it?! I would be ecstatic if i found out i was pg. and i know that we would face it together, another of his previous wafflings was if i did get pg he would commit to the child for the rest of his life irrelevant of if we were a couple. he is a sturdy bloke to be with and there is alot of love within our little family unit
ruby saturdays without dp/b means a trip to the park, shopping, visiting my mum and taking dd for a walk to see her Favorite horses at some local stables, she adores them!! then its tea housework and bedtime routine. Saturdays with dp/b means trip to the following shops... local farm cos his mum send him for fruit n veg there, round the lane for a trip to the petshop in garden centre for fish, turtle, hamster supplies between the pair of us, morrisons or the like for fags for his mum, catfood for my ever eating cat, top up of bits for also my ever eating dc. take dd to park and also feed ducks, teatime and bedtime routine. so we too are boring its just normal family life i think though.
minion - you go girl!! Enjoy my OH was shattered this morning so no DTD for us - think he needs to get down the gym more often!
littlest - ha, none of my nice male friends would have her and I wouldn't wish her on any of them. I had a lightbulb moment on Sunday when the OH and I were at the zoo with her and her kids and I realised that other women don't actually like her, she's really a man's woman and it's nothing personal to me that she has no sense of boundaries. Now to get him to realise it too.....
On another subject, I've been trying to monitor ovulation for the very first time; noticed EWCM on Friday, got a faint positive line on the OPK Saturday and thought it would definitely be darker Sunday - then nothing. Either I missed it, I didn't ovulate or I'm a numpty who has no idea how to use these things properly!

Hi minion! I like the idea of eggwatch, think I need to be more aware of these things too.....
Just back from the GP and apparently new guidelines are that you won't be referred for fertility testing until you've been trying for a year and a half. Pah. Clearly I'm too impatient!! He did say that 20% of women fall pregnant within 3 months, 50% by six months and 80% by a year so I guess the NHS is trying to save a few quid by making us all wait!
Don't think I'll have any luck this month, OH has been too knackered to do much so unless I have a very patient egg I think AF will be visiting again a week on Monday. At which point expect me to be much less accepting of this and instead to be once again grumpy and hormonal
