Mama, lovely Lucy, ks et al - what can I say but mwah, you are the very bestest & I'd never leave! I just get a little quiet sometimes, but you really do help pick me u&shake me off, along with all the lovely ladies on here, thank you Thanks I'd miss your craziness anyhow, Mama, I think i'm in love with your dh, a melon?! Bless him Smile too funny

Congrats Sparky&hoping af stays away dinky, choccy&&English&whoever else is on tenterhooks
Thinking of you imaginary&lh
M33r, without sounding too cheesy, I find you inspirational & just wanted you to know that Smile

onelifeonechance · 06/11/2013 07:40

Mama, pinreapple core is v hard, not the nicest but all for a good cause, have fun with dh Wink

sazzlehopes · 06/11/2013 07:48

This thred is very funny. Mama let us know what that core is like. I'm so impressed you manage to get so much dtd action in when you have a kiddo already!!

M33r that book would annoy me to. It's not fair to say that is something you are doing subconsciously to stop yourself getting pregnant. I think we do very well after 12 months to be on here with banter and not moping around at home with a 'woe is me' attitude!

To all those waiting for AF to show or jut not knowing what is going in I hope you get answers soon one way or another.

Choccywoccydodah · 06/11/2013 07:49

Ahh here she is. Morning one life Smile

So, no more spotting, AND I'VE HAD A POO!!!! Woohoo!

Hope you managed to get in your early morning bonk mama!! Grin

sazzlehopes · 06/11/2013 07:52

Onelife how is your cbfm doing? You had you peak yet? I got a first high yesterday on day 8 so planning on just dtd tonight and every other day with extra on my peak days and just keep going for longer after I ov...

lucyfluff · 06/11/2013 07:54

Wooooooohooooo choccy shad a poo!!! Lol (and yay to no spotting)

Girls you really made me laugh reading through the thread this morning! I'm no way trying pineapple yuk yuk yuk!! Maybe pineapple juice....good luck eating the core though you crazy peeps ;)

Mama you will be eating a full on fruit cocktail by Friday lol :)

One life!!!!!! We have missed you...how are you doing?

Still no period here......grrrrrrrrr!!!!!

sazzlehopes · 06/11/2013 07:55

Oh and choccy and mama I explained to OH about the grapefruit juice that had appeared in the fridge and what it did. So after using the words cm I think I've primed him ready to explain the sliced up pineapple inc core next week Wink

MovingOnUpduffed · 06/11/2013 07:57

Congrats to all the bfps! I am testing on Friday, but I have had a weird abdominal ache and been exhausted all of this week. I am really hoping I am pregnant, endometriosis runs in my family and I have had shockingly painful periods for a while, so if my feeling crappy isn't pregnancy related then it's off to the gp to be investigated. I am kind of dreading it if it turns out I'm pregnant too, although I'll be thrilled I had awful morning sickness and low blood pressure last time and spent 3 months throwing up and passing out. Not so fun. :-(

sazzlehopes · 06/11/2013 07:59

Choccy pleased no more spotting...Friday is looking better and better!
Lucy-grrrr indeed. So frustrating not to know what is going on!

onelifeonechance · 06/11/2013 08:09

Sazzle - glad your high has appeared, get dtdeeding Smile I'm back to lows now, peaked cd11&12 (cd18 now) We did well over high&peaks but stalled again after ov, so just got to wait&see, my advice to you is dont stall, keep going!!!! And going!!!! And going!!!!!

Im ok Lucy, no right to moan, just feel scared of af, know thats ridiculous but not feeling it this month, but trying to keep my pecker up& you lot help me do that Smile That's so frustrating about your af, did you say you're speaking to gp again soon?

Mama - on the fruit cocktail front i'm certain I've read men should only eat organic bananas as non organic ones aren't sperm friendly so dh can get in on the fruit medley action too! Grin

Choccy can't believe i'm going to say this but Yeay for your poo!!!!!!! Lol

SoMuchFruit · 06/11/2013 08:22

Hi Ladies,

Just having a little lurk and catching up with the news. Hilarious Pineapple Plan Grin Hope it works for you all.

Congrats to those who got their BFP's and FX for everyone waiting.

lucyfluff · 06/11/2013 08:24

Awww one life stay positive :) I really hope it's your month...we will be here to hold your hand. When is your AF due?

Yeah GP call tmrw...probably pointless !! I'm day 34 with a normal 28 day cycle so Christ knows what's going on :( I really want my period!!!

elcranko · 06/11/2013 08:33

I'm not sure whether I can stomach pineapple core, would juice be ok or does it need to be the core?!

Hooray to poo and no spotting choccy!

Movingon I know how you feel, I suffered with hyperemesis when pg with DC1 and I'm nervous in case it happens again.

English I too admire your patience! My IC tests should be arriving today or tomorrow and I just know I will have tested before the test is over despite it being far, far too early for me. I got a faint line 5 days pre AF with DC1 but this is rare I think?!

elcranko · 06/11/2013 08:35

Oh Lucy, sorry that you're in limbo. I hope you get some answers soon x

Missvaughan85 · 06/11/2013 08:35

Lucy I'm in with you cd38 nothing!!! She still hasn't arrived!!! Back ache had gone!! Weird!! Maybe I had a phantom period!!! This month even with this unknown, we shal dtd every other night just incase I have just missed a period and things go back to normal!!!
Choccy in so glad you had a poo and it was un eventful!!! Yeh for your poo!! I'm thinking if starting yoga, perhaps it'll clear my mind of some crap!!

mama31 · 06/11/2013 09:42

(squeezes onelife) so good to see you (well not actually see....you get me!) how are you doing? Please stay positive!!!! I know it's hard!! But everything will work out ok :) I promise :)

Sazzle DS is 12 almost 13, so he no longer finds it cool to hang out with me :( :( so we have a lot of time when he is out with friends! However, this morning we had to wait until he left for school before dtd which resulted in me being late for work with no breakfast...and more importantly.....NO PINEAPPLE CORE!!!

So no pineapple review for you all just yet...but I will eat it at lunch time....no doubt it will be rank, but I'm up for it ;)

Lovely Lucy and mrsV I continue to think of your awful waiting around, I hope it resolves itself one way or the other very soon!

And last but not least......congrats on your poo choccy (and the no spotting!) yeaaaaahhhhh!!!!!

Well the final ttc deed has been done for cycle 5.....i guess that means I'm officially in the 2ww now......here we go again!!!!!!

lucyfluff · 06/11/2013 09:45

I know it's crazy. I guess mine is more likely to be a bit different due to chem so I bet GP puts it down to that. It will be five weeks tmrw :(

Have your periods ever been this late before missv? I have heard of a phantom period but not sure why it happens....

englishteacher78 · 06/11/2013 09:53

Since starting to TTC my periods have been uneven. 1 month will be 3-4 days overdue, the next month will be precisely 28 days. I'm now 2 days late on what should be a precisely 28 days month. Confused

Choccywoccydodah · 06/11/2013 09:57

Wine Here's to your 2ww mama Grin

STILL NO SPOTTING!

(Sorry I'm very shouty today ha ha, I'm just uber uber happy compared to yesterday!!!!!)

Lucy fingers crossed everything ok in there. MissV hope something is sorted with you soon Thanks

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 09:59

am intrigued by all this pineapple business, having only just got on the grapefruit juice bandwagon!! what does the p-core do then??
mama I'm following your sex plan!! you are the guru... good luck with your 2ww
movingon do you have any other symptoms of endo? I was reading up on it yesterday as I have really heavy periods and am wondering if it could have something to do with no luck ttc....

mama31 · 06/11/2013 10:36

Cheers choccy!!! It's ok I like a good shout! ;) it's motivational!!! :)

Flymo!! Haha! Just almost spat my coffee out...."the guru" hahaha!!! I doubt that!!!

The pineapple core is just to be eaten 1dpo to 5dpo one slice with the core each day! It helps the egg implant apparently!!! Give it a shot! Why not!!!

mama31 · 06/11/2013 10:44

Flymo where are you in your cycle???

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 10:44

oooh, will do! I'd love to know the science behind all this, where's science when we need her!!

Missvaughan85 · 06/11/2013 10:51

No Lucy never, I know coming off bc can mess it up but I've had four regular 28 day cycles since this one is the only messed up one!!! I have heard of oeriods just going missing, and it's all very normal. It's this ttc business, it just messes with your head!!!

flymo79 · 06/11/2013 10:54

mama I'm on cd14, normally don't ov till at least day 18, sometimes day 21. Off for bloods on day 22.... hmmmm.
