Hiya,

Welcome to all the new faces - Hope your stay is short.

I have had confirmation today that my husbands medical insurance will cover me to see a gynaecologist privately which has perked me up no end as a 55 day wait on top of the 14 weeks waiting for AF to return was a little galling! Feeling lucky on that one.

Still got symptoms that suggest I may be pg but having not had an AF since before last pregnancy I am not sure what to do!

Sorry to here AF got you Sal

fedupofrainydays · 25/06/2013 17:19

Thanks sundance - 3 more DTD sessions to go. Not sure how up for it (pardon the pun) my OH will be as that will make it 8 times in one week that has to be a record for us (ok maybe not when first got together!) but he quite likes science so maybe he will buy it. Lets see.

Sorry you are here too dearly and I'm a bit crazy and would find it hard to wait so would prob POAS before the ceremony to avoid the constant pant check! Fx for you

Sal1977 · 25/06/2013 18:29

Yep, but of a pisser that AF visited here Excited. Have you done any tests?

DearlyDepartedMrsFinch · 25/06/2013 18:56

Thanks guys, knew you'd cheer me up Smile

The month before I conceived DD2 I had a negative HPT on 18DPO (AF appeared a couple of hours later). That was a bit of a killer, and swore that I would wait until 18DPO to test forever more. So undecided on that one I think. I think I'd rather have the appearance of AF rather than a negative (maybe-I-tested-too-early) HPT.

Good news on the medical insurance Mrs. 14 weeks waiting is terrible. Remind me - did you have a negative HPT following your miscarriage?

GuffSmuggler · 25/06/2013 19:57

SO I buckled and POAS... and.....

Yippee guff excellent news.

alyant. Great to have a SMEP buddy.

GuffSmuggler · 25/06/2013 20:24

Oh and if you lot doing SMEP start to collapse with exhaustion, we DTD 3 days before OV and on OV day and couldn't manage it after that.

Someone told me it's more important to DTD before OV as you need to get the swimmers up there waiting for your egg to release, seems to make sense. I used those CB Digi sticks with dual hormone that tell you when you are about to OV and when you actually OV.

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 25/06/2013 20:28

I'm full to the gills with swimmers! Confused I just need them to do their job! Grin poor DP is knackered! Sad

DearlyDepartedMrsFinch · 25/06/2013 20:29

Oh wow, Guff! Congratulations Grin

Badhairday76 · 25/06/2013 20:31

That is brilliant news, Guff - well done!!! So exciting!

dildoos · 25/06/2013 20:53

Woohoo guff!!!! Wet fish not required as a bfp!!!!!! So pleased for you!!! This is the thread to be on Grin !!

Squigglypig · 25/06/2013 20:57

Congratulations Guff! Here's to a smooth 9 months and a lovely wriggly baby at the end of it!

I'm in a massive strop with DH at moment so no DTD for us tonight. I can't even begin to explain but he's being an arse and I'm now sulking upstairs on mn. It's nothing major, just to do with the garden and money and whether we pay someone to do it or I do it and save us money. He finished by saying I just don't want it to look as shit as our old garden! I will have you know that our old garden did not look shit, he often complimented me on it and frankly if he got off his arse and helped now and again then it would be a bit easier to sort this one out.

(ridiculous I know.)

dildoos · 25/06/2013 21:03

Squiggley- I say compost dh for tonight !
I am now watching my recorded programme the man with the10 atone testicles !! Omg?!!!

Floweroct · 25/06/2013 21:05

Guff congrats that's great news!

I also abused the system but bfn :( I'm only 12 dpo and did it this evening so know I'm not completely out but needed to stop me getting my hopes up < ducks to avoid fish slaps>

Rockchick1984 · 25/06/2013 21:10

Yaaaaaaayyyyyyy Guff!!!! I'm made up for you!!!

Emki · 25/06/2013 21:11

Congratulations guff well done!!!! Fantastic news!!!

dildoos · 25/06/2013 21:14

Flower not over yet!!! Fx for you !!

fedupofrainydays · 25/06/2013 21:31

The 10 stone testicle programme - v amused you chose to record that one. Imagine the amount of swimmers in there!!

Am full to the brim too - been constant shagging since Thursday. Too old for this!! Just hoping one healthy swimmer front crawls / butterflies it rather than doggy paddle to meet the egg.

Squiggly - I'm sure your garden looks lovely (not in a crude sense, in a garden sense!)

Congrats guff - thats great news! it's all happening on this thread. I hope this is a good sign for my bfp this month. So beginning to lose hope and energy for all this.

missmakesstuff · 25/06/2013 21:39

Congrats Guff, great news, there is hope for us all.

I had a lovely, busy weekend with yet more bloody babies and pregnant people popping up and out everywhere. I was slightly satisfied when I heard the name one of them has chosen for the impending arrival, it did cheer me up a tad as it is totally ridiculous, evil I know but I take comfort where I can.

I am ovulating and miserable as am now letting this one go to waste. Got symptoms on Friday and DTD then, got positive OPK today, so probably OV today and DH doesn't want to do the deed as we Are Not Trying.

I am kind of resigned to trying again after the summer now, when hopefully things will improve for us work wise and we can plan for another DC. I have a lot on at work and lots of really great stuff happening over the next year, so a summer 2014 baby might be really nice timing actually. I can get fit and a bit thinner before then too, plus enjoy the summer getting pissed camping and enjoying the sun. When it arrives. We also have loads to do to finish our house off so we can sell it in a couple of years, a project for the garden and lots of other plans.

Can you tell I am talking myself into this?!!

Hope all of you get the results you want but I think I will just have to keep dipping in and lurking every so often until we are TTC again as it is making me a bit miserable in actual fact because all I want is to be doing something to get another DC - this putting it off is horrible as it isn't our choice.

dildoos · 25/06/2013 21:48

Fedup- I know my thoughts entirely! It sucked up his penis so unsure as to where we could extract his swimmers from? Now watching the op they have found his penis woohoo a penis is born Grin
Miss - that's a hard thing to do is wait ESP when you want something so much! Keep on here as company is always good!!
