that's the plan!Smile

although on the back of that we've also decided to try to move, so house in on sale and we are house hunting!

I know, I know - but we already feel we need more space, so we'll have a good discussion next week on holiday what our strategy should be.

how is everyone doing, any closer to BFPs?

Hi everyone, is everyone still dtd?
Due to ovulate Thursday so dtd last night and will again today and tomorrow. This is only month number one but I'm obsessed already!

Still working on it here! Really thought that my period was going to arrive yesterday, but it turned into nothing after a few hours. Assuming this is still my hormones settling down after coil removal. Hopefully the real thing will arrive soon, so at least we will know where we are.

I'm trying for baby number 2. First official month of ttc. Had the depo injection which ran out the end of June. Then we've being sort of careful when dtd as wanting a spring/summer baby. All the family's birthdays/weddings are in the autum and winter, so wanting to space it out a bit. Think I'd be due to ovulate in the next few days, weather that happens or not I don't know but no af as yet just spotting.

Does anyone use an app? I'm using the Clue app. Was using the what to expect app but had my phone stolen and lost all my info...so first month of not knowing when I am actually ovulating. Kind if guessed and Dtd on Tuesday, Thurs and Fri...doesn't help when you don't have the standard 28 day cycle.
We were planning on starting next month (DH dubbed it 'Sextember') as he has specified he wants a BOY who is also a Gemini Confused
But I think the lure of more sex made him change his mind ha!!Grin

Costypop · 13/08/2013 09:31

I've started to use an app, not to focus on ovulating or get stressy but I am useless at keeping track of periods (havnt had one for 8years!) so thought best to keep a record so I don't look so clueless in front of the midwife (like I did with my first!)

UnitedZingDom · 13/08/2013 15:12

costypop

what app are you using?

it's me Zing btw, just NC

jaykay987 · 13/08/2013 15:15

A boy who is a Gemini?! Grin Made me smile! Men can be so clueless in this process Grin

chattychattyboomba · 13/08/2013 15:21

Haha Jay tell me about it. When I expressed my desire to upgrade from the bugaboo cam to the buffalo (assuming you all know I'm talking about buggies here!) he said 'sure, if you give me a boy'...pretty sure that's more up to the universe to decide! Haha! Keeps asking me what day in my cycle makes a boy and what foods and wants to consult Chinese calendar...lol
(Btw he was not that serious, loves our DD to bits, and would adore another DD but would be nice to have one of each and he loves to joke about it).

Costypop · 13/08/2013 18:30

Chatty- don't worry! If I give my DP twins I get a brand new car of my choice! DP just came out it when driving yesterday, very out of the blue. Men are very strange.

The app is the conception tracker lite for iPhone

chattychattyboomba · 13/08/2013 18:36

TWINS! Omg! DH would need to buy me more than a car to entice that idea.... I'm thinking large diamonds Wink

Costypop · 13/08/2013 19:46

He got me a large diamond last week, we've just engaged! Lol

chattychattyboomba · 13/08/2013 19:47

Woohoo! Congratulations!

Costypop · 13/08/2013 20:18

Thank you so much!

VJONES1985 · 13/08/2013 20:19

Congratulations! When's the wedding? :-)

Crownjewel · 16/08/2013 15:06

Congratulations on your engagement costypop Grin

I'm using Clue too, by the way :)

I'm joining too. We're ttc #1 as of this month! Have been talking to DH about it for probably about 3 years and have finally realised that we both are far too overly rational and would probably never get round to it if we waited for what we both thought was the 'right time'. So will be testing in two weeks Grin

chattychattyboomba · 18/08/2013 23:36

That's the spirit green face. I don't think there's ever a perfect time.
There's a 'better' time, but it's kind of a learn on the job thing IMO.
AF due tomorrow... Getting impatient!!!
