Woo hoo!!!! Onelife!!! Hello boys indeed ;) you aint gona need those pj's!!! That's for sure!!!!

There's gona be 2 DH's with smiles on their faces this week that's for sure!!!! ;) now get to work onelife!!!! There's "sex plans" to be followed "fun to be had" and who knows "babies could be made" how exciting!!!! :) :) :)

mama31 · 05/10/2013 12:45

Ps I just want to say that I received some very wise words of wisdom today....and I am determined to keep the positivity alive on this bus...no more doom and gloom from me you will all be happy to hear... Now who's next for a BFP?!!!!

Choccywoccydodah · 05/10/2013 13:30

Sorry about all your m/cs life, not a nice thing to go through for anyone. I think the stats are really for children you have already and given birth to, therefore I think yours would be ttc 2. Good luck on this month and glad your DP is now in the loop.

mama31 · 05/10/2013 13:45

Hey choccy how you doing?? You in 2ww?

Choccywoccydodah · 05/10/2013 17:33

Hi mama, yup on day 3. Trying not to symptom spot this time as I was gutted last month Hmm
Got a busy couple of weeks seeing friends so that'll help Smile

panicmechanic · 05/10/2013 17:54

Hi all - great to hear all the positivity! I am feeling really odd not sick just different. My BFP/AF isnt until the 15/16th so there is no way I could have implanted yet is there? It's my bday and as my DH is away my girlfriends have organised a night out for me. I am worrying about having a few glasses of wine (my sister is a gp and has told me not to worry about it.

mama31 · 05/10/2013 18:05

Yes choccy good plan!! Keep busy!! I'm gona try and do the same this month as my symptom spotting got way out of control last few months :/

Panic have your wine for sure....don't change your life til you get a bfp...life is for living ;) and when it happens then and you know for sure then the alcohol can go!

Well I'm all beautified and ready for DH coming home from work....prob be a few hrs yet but I'm feeling good and the lingerie is hiding beneath my slouchy comfy house clothes so he will never suspect a thing....I like to surprise him ;) might as well have a fun night before the fertile week begins...just for fun!! Why the hell not?!! :)

panicmechanic · 05/10/2013 18:12

Thanks so much Mama and good luck tonight!

Babymamatobe · 05/10/2013 18:17

Well we managed to DTD last night and this morning. Got another positive OPK this afternoon, so gonna have to pounce on poor DH either tonight or in the morning :-)

FX !!!!

mama31 · 05/10/2013 18:38

You enjoy your night panic :)

Babymama nothing poor about DH! I'm sure he loves it!!!! ;)

ItsSoFluffyImGonnaDie · 05/10/2013 19:35

Mama and Onelife, enjoy your night of debauchery Grin

DH has hurt his neck but ewcm has arrived so he's going to have to take (should that be give) one for the team Wink

mama31 · 05/10/2013 19:40

Lol itssofluffy!! Thanks have no idea what time DH shift ends tonight, but will be ready when it does ;)

And your DH will def have to "give" one for the team!!! I'm pretty sure a neck injury won't prevent dtd...or that you would let it ;)

jessieagain · 05/10/2013 22:05

Sorry to hear af got a couple of you today.

gnomie hope your mums surgery goes well. Fingers crossed for you next cycle.

I'm glad to hear dp and me aren't the only ones to schedule dtd in advance! Even when not ttc we do this just to keep each other in the loop and also so we can plan around dp's work, especially if he is working away. Have fun tonight ladies!

I got another -ve opk today (day 13) hmm Hmm not sure if I like this testing business. I will keep doing them this cycle but I'm not sure I will next cycle. Am finding it stressful.

On the other hand, I still have ewcm and have not yet had any ov cramps yet, so still think I'm pre ov.

lifehasafunnywayofhelpinguout · 05/10/2013 23:22

Hi Choccy. Thanks for your reply and your supportive words. I wasn't really sure how the stats worked. Good luck you as well. xx

Newlywed2013 · 06/10/2013 04:18

Can I join please :) I had implant out end of sept, and just had what felt like a real period for hte first time in a while!! I know it is unlikely to get lucky so soon after having it out, I would love for it to happen!!
Hubby is also very broody atm!!

Newlywed2013 ttc#1 cycle 1 bfp End of Oct ? 26th Oct?

onelifeonechance · 06/10/2013 08:15

Good morning ladies Smile

Well, what a difference a day makes! I'm feeling full of beans, we've had a gorgeous morning and my grump has officially left the building, woohoo! Currently lying bottom propped in the air and sex plan for the week is agreed Wink Are you proud of me Mama? It's all thanks to you and the pom pom shakers Smile How are you getting along? Good night last night?

MarlenaGru · 06/10/2013 08:26

Some excellent pep talks going on! Glad to see so much positivity Smile

Any bfps due today that have tested? It is taking all my strength not to go to Superdrug to buy 100 tests to do over the next few days when I know if I just wait until Friday I will know.

I have had such awful lower back pain but I think I have a mild uti (sorry if tmi!) so that is probably why. I am also spotty but that happens for AF anyway. Need to get a grip! More Brew anyone?

allchatnicknamesgone · 06/10/2013 09:07

God this thread moves at a pace when you don't check it like every 2 mins!
Managed a mid afternoon bonk yesterday, but it started painfully with DH muttering the words 'again?!'. Then told me to get going and he'd join in if he could!! I could have happily killed him, but the sad thing is I just want to dtd to have a baby! DH not normally a prick, but massively feels the pressure and has had a few 'performance' issues lately which breaks my heart when you how small the window of oppurtunity is. I've tried to gently explain how you have to ramp it up to have a baby, but he finds the planning/scheduling really off putting. Started this month telling him I wouldn't tell him when I had a smiley face of opk, but he can see it in my eyes!
Btw. Panic. I'm defo still drinking. I think it does TTC can become all consuming and enjoying a drink is relaxing!
Good luck for those testing x

PurpleGeekyGirl · 06/10/2013 09:48

< still lurking so marking my spot ;) >

PurpleGeekyGirl · 06/10/2013 09:49

Wow how'd I manage an empty post??

Anyway. I said still lurking so marking my spot waves

SoMuchFruit · 06/10/2013 10:07

Loved the pep talks ladies everyone sounds very positive Smile

allchat that sounds awkward. Well done for being so tenacious though. The pressure does get to the poor things, amazing when you think that previously they spend their (at least teen/early 20) years being completely rampant.

Would it be easier to DTD more throughout the month rather than concentrating on the OPK period only. Still doing the tests but less obvious to a shy one that it's that day if it's in amongst regular sex ?

MrsB2013 · 06/10/2013 10:11

Morning ladies!! Hope everyone is ok!

I've had a 3rd smiley flashing face on the cb opk, thought today's would of been a fixed one? This is first month of using them, so does it mean I'm going to ovulate later?

SoMuchFruit · 06/10/2013 10:12

9dpo today (according to a 30day cycle -which I think this one is) and I'm bloody boiling. Literally radiating heat like a radiator. Not sweaty or flushed, just hot. Really, really hot. So hot I had to get up as was too hot to sleep. Only wearing a tiny PJ top with summer weight duvet and window open. DH was complaining he was chilly!

Its a weird heat though not like having a temp when you are sick. More like someone turned up my internal thermostat. Would this count as a symptom ?

HisLommel · 06/10/2013 10:24

After having a whinge to DF this morning that "I'm never going to ovulate"... I think I've got a positive OPK test! Just an internet cheapie so I'll try with a CB next wee Grin

jaykay987 · 06/10/2013 10:41

B2013 - that isn't uncommon. There is a whole thread on it. First month I used them I got the expected 2 days high, then two days peak. Last month I got 7 days of flashing before the fixed. This month I got a low, followed by a peak (which didn't result in me ovulating so was a false reading). Then a week later I to two highs followed by a peak (this morning! Grin) Im now monitoring my temps to see if I ovulate. FX!

Fruit - yes - Id mark that as a symptom! What dpo are you? FX! Smile

L - that's good news. However if I were you, I wouldn't waste the CB. Firstly, they work best with FMU, plus they compare data to previous day. So you need to use them everyday consistent.y for it to read your surges right. If today is your first using it, you'll more than likely get a negative as it will think your LH levels are normal for you.
