I thought I'd start the new thread and earn some brownie points with the posifrickintivity Gods... Grin

As a veterinary professional I take a very dim view of inserting turtles in your orifices Wink please don't try this at home, viewers.

Thundercatsarego · 16/05/2013 16:14

Aww. Not even a little terrapin?

Thundercatsarego · 16/05/2013 16:58

Or what about one of those giant African snails?

Emki · 16/05/2013 17:17

I'm giggling too in the corner x

Emki · 16/05/2013 17:21

Also hoping dh up for dtd tonight .... It's been a while - though not as long as I originally thought ... Still no line on opk but hoping will OV in next few days ... No ewcm either - thought I'd mention it as its the topic du jour! Xxxx hope everyone ok xxx

Topslou · 16/05/2013 18:49

No poas for me tomorrow after all. AF has arrived. Good luck for anyone else testing tomorrow.

alyant79 · 16/05/2013 19:34

Hahaha turtle.... DH is bound to ask me what I'm sniggering about any minute now

CupcakeFanatic · 16/05/2013 20:04

Sorry to hear your AF arrived Topslou, hugs x

BirdsDoIt · 16/05/2013 20:13

Ha ha thanks for the advice saggy!!! I'll never look at a turtle in the same way again x

BirdsDoIt · 16/05/2013 20:16

Ps Furtle? Is that a word? Possibly my new favourite word.

Thundercatsarego · 16/05/2013 23:08

Sad topslou sorry she got you.

My af due Sun/Monday but I'm not bothering with poas Friday. Will have to be a poas tues if she hasn't arrived by then.

Furtle is indeed a great word. I don't seem to get ewcm though so no furtlin' fun for me...

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 16/05/2013 23:37

You need to furtle for it Thunder There is bound to be some in there somewhere! Grin
Im actually feeling a bit despondent right now. In the 2ww, poas due Mon 26th. Might poas next friday, might wait and see what happens. Its not been that long really, this will be my third AF since my MC , but I just feel like it will never happen. Sad

Grin at the turtle.

Well, I don't think I'll bother with poas tomorrow, looks as if af is about to arrive - been spotting yesterday and today, with some mild cramps over the last few days. CD27 today, so it's spot on, given that this is my wtf cycle. Which I am quite pleased about, things are back on track then. On the other hand I have to admit I was harbouring a small hope to be one of those lucky ladies who get pg again immediately after a mc...Confused

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 17/05/2013 00:05

Sad JBrd

Out of interest, does anyone have a good sex drive during the first half of the month, then lose the plot later?
CD6 - CD15 I am all... interested, then after that, I just want to slap DP if he comes near! Confused Does the drop in libido mean Ive OV and my fertile window is done?

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 17/05/2013 00:06

P.S. We need an injection of posifrickintivity here! Whats happened to me everyone?

Ariel21 · 17/05/2013 07:46

Hi all. Well I'm waiting for AF with anticipation now! Think I OV'd weekend before last so it should be soon right? Not much point in POAS as we only DTD once, so the waiting game it is. Look forward to some POAS Friday news today!

Ariel21 · 17/05/2013 07:48

And yes Saggy I think that must be normal - it's nature's way of saying 'get on it - now!' I too find the libido vanishes after OVing, sorry hubster.

Lieslvontrapp · 17/05/2013 08:39

So no poas hpt here but poas opk and got my first high on the cbfm at cd15. Quite suprised I got a high already as 38 day cycles before mmc meant I should have ovulated around cd 25. I guess I may just get 10 days of high now. What's other people's experiences with the cbfm?

OneLittleToddleTerror · 17/05/2013 09:07

LRD I have no problem on dubbed programs. I've watched my share of Japanese horror film dubbed. I prefer it over subtitles.

OneLittleToddleTerror · 17/05/2013 09:11

Oh wrong thread lol!

JBrd you are doing very well to get AF (or might be implantation) on CD27. We all know cycle 0 is a bit screwed up, at least you know you won't be waiting 7-9 weeks. I think emki up thread said the docs told her it could take up to 7 weeks for things to settle back down. It'd be such a blow to lost another two months. I think I ovulated on CD23, and we were on the same antenatal bus, so you are ahead atm Wink. Think positive!

Rockchick1984 · 17/05/2013 09:29

Saggy same here WRT sex drive - although for some unknown reason I always get really horny when AF is due - it's the way I know she's due :)

My AF arrived 3 weeks after I'd stopped bleeding following ERPC, so logically I'm due AF/BFP on 2nd June however a few days after AF finished I had crazy bucketloads of EWCM so no idea if that was early ovulation or something left from AF - generally don't get any visible CM so not like anything I've ever experienced before! Anyone got any idea?

Good luck to anyone POAS today!

Oli30 · 17/05/2013 14:09

May I join the posifrickintivity thread? I miscarried at twelve weeks over the Easter weekend and had ERPC on 3rd April. All pretty miserable. Longing to be pregnant again, but was advised to wait a cycle before trying again. Ignored that advice and as AF hasn't visited since the ERPC was going to POAS this morning. But my old friend arrived this morning. Mixed feelings - happy that everything is working as it should; sad that I've got nothing to celebrate. Roll on June BFPs
everyone xx

LJH23 · 17/05/2013 18:30

Evening all, I found this thread this morning and was so relieved to read what I've been feeling since my first miscarriage (first pregnancy) and ERPC at the end of February. It's been a properly crappy year and I'm up for a lot of positfrickintivity, I can tell you. My sister in law is about to pop and my best mate has just got pregnant with her second and whilst we only started trying in December, I'm starting to feel downhearted and slightly obsessed, which in turn makes me feel guilty for obsessing about it. After all, how many times have I been told (by pregnant people/mums) "don't think about it and it'll just happen"?!
Anyway, thank you all for the support you have inadvertently given me and I hope you don't mind me gate crashing your chat. Whilst I wouldn't wish this state of being on anyone, it's of such a huge comfort to read of others in a similar position.
DH off abroad with work half way through what will probably be my OV window this month, so I'm feeling thoroughly cheated. At least it's Friday, I guess!

Bakingtins · 17/05/2013 19:21

Liesl CBFM says high as soon as it sees oestrogen, then peak if it sees LH. If it misses ov then it will just say high for 20 sticks. I used to get high from day 6 or 7 and I normally ov about day 16, so it wouldn't surprise me if you're on track for a normal ( for you ) cycle

Emki · 17/05/2013 20:37
