Thatssofunny · 14/05/2013 20:20

CaptainCalamari I roll about all the time...I don't think I sleep for 3-4 hours in one go during most nights, since I tend to wake up a lot...and then go back to sleep. I'm a really light sleeper. We'll see how it pans out for the rest of the month.

somedizzy I've got the more expensive OPK's that Gillster is suggesting and it's quite exciting to see the smiley face each month, since I'm too lazy to think about whether the line is darker on the cheap ones or not. (I've got better things to do in life...just give me a smiley face!) I'm a teacher, too - so is DP - and the stress is possibly not helpful. However, we've got several members of staff off on mat leave or about to go, so it should happen...even for teachers. Grin At least it means I get faced every day with how I certainly do not want my children to turn out. Blush (I've got some really lovely pupils, too...)

CaptainCalamari · 15/05/2013 09:44

Sorry Gillster its Clearblue Fertility Monitor... its like a different language isn't it! It gives highs for a few days before ovulation, and then two peak days when you ov. Worked in a couple of months for me last time so hoping I'll get lucky again!

ZolaBuddleia · 15/05/2013 10:15

All this talk of scientific gadgets is making me wonder if I'm missing a trick. I have PCOS, and I'm sure I've read that OPKs aren't reliable in that instance. Any thoughts?

This month the plan is to DTD every second day from day 10 to the end and see what happens.

SomeDizzyWhore1804 · 15/05/2013 10:38

Thanks for the heads up on ClearBlue seatfor5 I went and brought some last night and started using them there and then.

My cycle is seriously messed up this month (period came 5 days early, after 3 months of being regular as clockwork after having my coil out, so I am only on day 5 or 10 depending on which chart I am using) and wasn't expecting a smiley face, but just seeing the gadget at work made me feel 100% better about everything and more in control of the situatuion. I think that is really all I need- the illusion of control.

Thatssofunny Not only do I know how I don't want my kids to turn out- I know exactly what I won't name them too!! Grin Grin Are you secondary? I am and at the end of my tether with GCSE stress!! Gah!!!

Gillster · 15/05/2013 13:03

Thanks for the info CaptainCalamari it really is another language! To the teachers among you, you deserve a medal, I don't know how you do it. At least your summer break isn't too far away. Plenty of time to rest, recuperate and dtd! Wink

Amiasmummy · 15/05/2013 16:04

Hi ladies! Room for another on your bus? I have a HUGE stash if chocolate Wink

I'm 27yrs old and ttc baby #2.. My daughter, Amia, was stillborn 26th September 2010. Her dad and I had separated half way through the pregnancy so ttc again wasn't an immediate option, despite yearning for another baby. After some time spent grieving and healing a little, I met my OH in December 2011. We've recently settled in a new home together and decided to try for our first baby together.

It's very early days.. I only had my implant removed on 8th may, but was lucky to have Aunt Flo arrive on the 11th. I say lucky, although in all honesty I would have preferred her not to come at all!! I feel so nervous and excited about pregnancy, I already know it will be the longest 9 months filled with worry! I'm hoping the ttc wait is not too long or I might just burst!!

Thank you gillywillywoo Thanks

Can't wait for AF to sod off now.. Was nice of her to pop by and let me know my body is working but hoping she's at least starting to pack her things and move on Wink looking that way at the mo.. Fingers crossed, she won't outstay her welcome.

I have no idea how long my cycles will be, but predicted bfp due date with the assumption I'll revert back to the 28day cycles I had before the implant. Could be way off, but only time will tell eh!

Good luck and best wishes to you, and all the other ladies on this awesome flying bus.

Good luck Amiasmummy Thanks
AF has finally gone away for me so I can crack on with dtd for the next few weeks Smile
My last cycle was 48 days (previous ones around 30 days) but only came off the pill in December so I think my body is still getting used to being pill-free.
Was so happy when AF finally came and even happier now its over and done with! Grin

That's great news gillywillywoo I'm glad she was a polite guest lol
I hope your body has settled itself now after that inconsiderately long cycle! I can imagine the wait was very frustrating!
Wishing you lots of luck (and stamina). May your dancing days be fruitful Grin

barebranches · 15/05/2013 20:59

so far so good with dtd every other day!! Grin wont miss that egg this month!
hope every one else is having just as much fun!!

BartBaby · 15/05/2013 21:16

Hello ladies Smile

Hope you dont mind me hopping on board aswell!

Im 27 and just married DH (32) 6 weeks ago. We are ttc #2. Im on cycle 2 but just had a short 2 day AF this month. Not sure if that means anything particularly?! Just started opk testing today. Seemed to work ok last month i think as i got a couple of faint lines followed by a really dark one showing ov on cd14. Hoping to time the dtd better this month as DH sometimes works away during the week.

BabyBart ttc#2, cycle 2, bfp due around 4th june i think

Hope you are all well Smile

Fingers crossed for you all xx

Thatssofunny · 15/05/2013 22:05

Somedizzy I teach UKS2, but my class this year feel like I'm back teaching some really annoying Y11s. Never had so many spiteful, nasty and horrible children congregated in one room. (They are all really lovely on their own, which is why their behaviour as a class is so frustrating.) Can't wait for them to bugger off to secondary school...someone needs to take them down several pegs. (I'm missing my older ones...much more effective having Y8 tell my newbies not to annoy me, because I'm apparently a legend and not to be messed with...haha...) Which subject are you teaching? Good luck for the GCSEs,...SATs are nearly over. Grin
Come one, holidays! I really need a break,...and a bit less stress. My new class will be nice,...I'm looking forward to that.

LittleMachine · 16/05/2013 09:20

ImaginaryHat · 16/05/2013 16:41

Hello. Just thought I'd pop back in and say howdy to everyone who's joined the bus in the past few days Smile

AF is being a right biatch for me this month, really heavy and painful. Hopefully over the worst of it now, just got to wait out the next few days then can get down to plenty of dtd Grin Hope af's being kinder to everyone else being visited! Gilly glad she's left you and let you get on with things!
