I got my positive 2 days ago now, tried to DTD yesterday but hubby is on tablets that make it harder for him to finish and combined with the pressure of HAVING to do it we were not successful, so that's me off the bus before it's even got going!! I was thinking I'll give MN a miss for a couple weeks but if I'm honest I don't think I'll be able to resist the lure of all your bfps. Hubby is hopefully starting back to work next week so perhaps being back in a routine will help with the TTC.

Is it too soon to start a September bus?

FoxMulder · 24/07/2013 09:18

Hi Marie you talking to me? I got a 3+ on a clearblue digi today and I'm really stoked. It was at this point last time I was still getting 1-2 which I knew wasn't right...

GrinGrin

Disney I'm sorry to hear it's not going so well for you on the August bus. Is hubby on these pills long term?

FoxMulder · 24/07/2013 09:19

Can't believe I just said stoked...am possibly turning into an Australian.

ChubbyKitty · 24/07/2013 09:23

I think it's finally grinding to a halt!

14 days is ridiculous. It'll soon be time to have another oneHmm

Pearlmum1 · 24/07/2013 11:15

Hello can I join please? This is my 5th month trying and hoping to have a bfp on 11th Aug, I hoping that joining this thread may contain my crazy behaviour as soon as 1 DPO, I am one of many I am sure that does not handle to two week wait well! Last time I started testing 7 DPO, I have no idea why?!! Anyway so I vow to be patient this month and wait until a missed period if I am lucky?! Fingers crossed for everyone then!

Paully06 · 24/07/2013 13:24

Hey ladies, is it good to DTD everyday you are fertile or every other days so DH sperm can replenish? I feel the need to do it every day I get a smiley face on ovulation kit or feel like I'm missing opportunities.

Hope all well xx

Pearlmum1 · 24/07/2013 14:38

Paully06..I have just heard every other day until you are ovulating and the every day whilst you are, then I heard just to stick to every other day so I am going to try every other day this month as for 5 months we were doing every day and no luck.

I think so Fox at least until they can get down to the source of the problem, he's been on them since I don't know when so long that I couldn't be sure if they are even helping any!

It's not often that it's a problem really, I think it's just when there is an additional factor that it gets too much for him so there was too much pressure on him as well as the tablets last night. He told the Dr that we were trying for a baby and she was like "Oh lovely, here take more of these tablets"

Oh well, a June baby would be lovely, it'll go well with my birthday, hubby's, mum', MIL's and my uncle's (I'll not do friends or I'll be here forever!)

Kemie · 24/07/2013 17:19

Really sorry this month hasn't panned out disney, I know that feeling well, I have to try and stop myself telling OH what time of the month it is but he knows as I initiate a LOT more! Then the pressure gets to him and BAM nothing!! It's frustrating and we can't even let it show which even more frustrating!! Hey ho,May/June are also good monthsSmile

ImaginaryHat · 24/07/2013 17:43

Yey chubby the end is in sight! I think the longest I've had is about 10 days and I remember how annoying that was! Hopefully its the last one you have in a long time eh!

Sorry things haven't worked out timing wise for you this month disney, as you say if dh is going back to work it might help on that front too getting back into a routine. And a june baby would be lovely! Can you stick around and keep us in line when we swear we have a really itchy elbow at 2dpo so it MUST be a symptom?!

We messed up on smep last night, it was meant to be day 3 of consecutive dtd after +ve opk but it didn't happen. Between that and only starting on cd10 I don't think we can really claim we've followed it this month. Still dtd a fair bit this month though so fx it will be enough. Can't help but feel last night might have been the crucial night though. Might try once more tonight for luck!

Also, hi to everyone who's hopped on board in the last couple of days

marie456 · 24/07/2013 19:33

Thanks Disney! TTC is so stressful isn't it?! I feel sorry for DH and his pressure to perform when all us girls need to do is lay back and think of England!

Yes Foxmulder talking to you! Last time I was on here you were reassuring me that you got a bfp on your first cycle after mc. Congrats on your 3+!! What a relief for you.

gillywillywoo · 24/07/2013 19:56

Hi ladies! I'm hopping aboard and marking my spot.. Super busy as have family staying at the moment but will be back soon and will add myself to the list etc!

Hope you're all good Smile xx

bluefreckles · 24/07/2013 20:06

Hello all

Can I hop on too?

I'm 4 days late and have had period cramping for the last two days but no period?!

Has anyone had this? I've not had it before. Normally when I get cramps my period arrives within 2 to 3 hours...

JellyBeanDavey · 24/07/2013 20:26

bluefreckles HELLO!!

Was thinking about you the other day! Hope you are well!

JellyBeanDavey · 24/07/2013 20:30

I'm CD14 and no sign of ov or a positive opk. Anyone had issues with ic opks? I think I'm going to just get clear blue ones or simular.

Vikkijayne2507 · 24/07/2013 20:45

Hey jelly my ov date was meant to be 16th but ended up 18tg with all normal symptoms so don't worry cycles get confused. Im 5dpo birthday tomorrow think I can risk a few drinks but then could implantation happen tomorrow Hmmm

I've always found the ic opks really good Jelly, although I know not everyone has the same opinion of them. If you've no physical signs maybe you're just going to ov a bit later this month? I've had them as late as cd19 before, got it at cd13 this time!

lel74 · 24/07/2013 20:47

Hi all, not been on for about a week so I thought I'd have a quick read through and catch up. Sorry to hear this month hasn't gone to plan Disney, fx that next month is the one for you. We've been DTD as much as possible but I only get to see OH at weekends at the moment so I don't think we're likely to get a BFP until I've moved properly in September. Hasn't stopped us trying though! fx for all who are waiting at the moment.
