So, I have given the bicycle peddling trick a go, but could only last for a few minutes at most-must be very unfit!!!!

Come on you swimmers!

JennyOfOldstones · 10/01/2014 06:48

I am definitely trying the peddling next time and was also wondering about duration, I think as long as you can which for me would be about ten seconds!

Choccywoccydodah · 10/01/2014 07:00

Morning!

English wasn't it awful? I'm never going to have any surgery!
My dh cousin had a boob job after her 2 kids, but instead of having a lift, she had implants so her boobs looked awful (not the surgeons fault as he/advised a lift too). Anyway she had it done in the end 5 TIMES over a year because something went wrong after the second one trying to lift. Every time she said it was like having it all over again and the pain oucheeeeeeee!

Another friend had a double mastectomy due to them finding the genes that could give her breast cancer. She was only 30 I think when she had it. She's had hers rebuilt but by 2 different surgeons (one each) and they look great, but they are slightly different.

They're having probs conceiving (both of them have issues) so they have a fertility appt on the 14th jan and her boobs were rebooked for April and if she got pg in the meantime it would be cancelled (I don't know how long the ivf process is tbh so not sure if she would've been pg) Anyway, yesterday her boob appt was brought forward to this Monday! Really bad timing as they can't obviously start their baby making until after. She's now 32 so desperate now to start trying.

So, no, I will never be having surgery! Well, I had my eyes lasered, but that's different Wink

sazzlehopes · 10/01/2014 07:01

Morning ladies, ok did the peddling last night but couldn't do it for very long, bit unfit! DH face was a study...wtf are you doing woman? I didn't have the heart to tell him the real reason in case he thought me totally crazy so I said it was a good use of my time with my legs in the air and it kept them warm! He didn't argue with that!
We also managed the orgasm in the correct order so KOALA plan fully in action! Have one more shot at the peddling sat morning as out tonight, but the ds is staying over at the in laws so wahoo early morning dtd for us!

sazzlehopes · 10/01/2014 07:05

Mama - I keep my antics on here a secret from DH too!
Hopemummi - I think you could just be having a longer cycle this month if you got a peak that late. Fx for testing Sunday. I'd defo go by the machine and when you think you must have ov, and not worry about what your 'normal' cycle was.....

spinningirl10 · 10/01/2014 07:24

Morning all Grin

Mama....pleased af has arrived properly! Hope she buggers off quickly for you!

Loving the idea of posting pics of dh's face when naked upside down pedalling Grin

Hope we see some more bfp's today!

Kittyrose1 · 10/01/2014 08:14

Morning ladies! Loving the koala plan, I must say though I've been doing the peddling legs in the air business all month haha , my friend told me about it, he got pg cycle 2 once doing that , it's hilarious isn't it, really hard work! Haven't done the Manuka and after dh orgasm though, if no luck this month will do those things too.
No sign of AF yet...I'm concerned she may be on her way though as I feel incredibly irritable/snappy :( poor dh. My headache went yesterday by itself but I also got a bit of vertigo which I haven't had in months and months....another symptom perhaps?? Haha. I'm going to wait out testing until I'm officially late. (So be next Friday) fx fx fx!!

Mistyautumn · 10/01/2014 08:22

Apologies I have been AWOL for a while. Unbelievably, first cycle after mmc, I have just got a BFP!!!!!!!!

Happy but also really scared after the last one. Xxxxx

JustMarriedBecca · 10/01/2014 08:33

Congratulations Misty

I was almost sick in a bush on my way home from work last night. Nausea comes on at just before 4pm each day and goes off as soon as I have something to eat. Morning Nausea starts as soon as I get up at 6am and lasts until I have something large to eat (one bagel doesn't cut it). Other symptoms include metallic taste in my mouth, cramps and crying for no reason in the street. No obvious spotting as yet.

Did another IC test this morning (now 8-9 DPO) and still BFN. Sorry Moffit, I know we were going to test together on Monday but all of these symptoms are just driving me mental. Have ordered Clear Blue off Amazon but they aren't arriving until Wednesday (day AF) due and so will have to buy an early sensitive test at Boots and do Monday morning (and probably Sunday...otherwise WHY do them in packs of two). Have been googling and is possible to have enough levels of hormone to bring on sickness but not yet showing on Internet cheapie.

Don't think symptoms are flu like as have not had cough or cold or anything. And now firmly believe is not in my head. Wish Monday would hurry the f-up.

HollyBen · 10/01/2014 08:43

Congratulations misty fx for a sticky bean for you

becca those are promising symptoms but still early in terms of dpo. I had the nausea u till I ate when pg with DD

EnglishGirlAbroad · 10/01/2014 09:58

Congratulation misty tahts lovely news. I love hearing of bfps after mc/chems. I had one last month and am desperate for anoher bfp this month. Not really the best way to think as it could lead to huge disappointment . But at the moment thats all i can think of.

choccy it was awful. The poor woman who ended up having her hands and feet amputated! Shock. I cant say that it put me off though1 Ive got so many friends with amazing fake boobies and i know that one day, when mine are hanging low i would think about it!

Sounds promising for you becca, hope you get your bfp on sunday/monday.

Another bfn on opks. I'm wishing the days away here! Hate the time in between af and ov more than the wait after i think. At least after i know I've done all i can. Right now I feel helpless. Cant do anything until i get that high/peak on the opks!!

mama31 · 10/01/2014 10:01

Another grapefruit juice down! (eugh) cd2! Bore....snore!!!!

Congrats misty! Fab news! :)

Well af here for the wkend....not amused as DH happens to be off all this wkend :/ thankfully he's off next wkend also at the crucial time.....will have to stick to cuddles this wkend and save my energy for peddling next wkend ;) making a yummy dinner tonight and having a cosy night in with DH so can't complain really :)

Anyone up to anything exciting this wkend??? Apart from Poas!!!! Well actually that is super exciting!!!

keepswimming1 · 10/01/2014 11:27

Morning all,

Congrats misty - hope all will be ok

AF is not late, never been late before but tested with an IC BFN but hoping they are just rubbish

keepswimming1 · 10/01/2014 11:33

**oops ment now late lol,

onelifeonechance · 10/01/2014 11:45

What's for dinner Mama? We're not being very exciting as planning to paint the lounge, but I am actually super excited by this!!!! Especially as it is currently a yucky yellow colour with vile matching curtains so can't wait to get rid! (Plus have film-like-sequence dreams of me and dh painting together, giggling and putting paint on each other's noses...then we'll get carried away and before we know it we're SWI and hey presto our little bean will be conceived...and we can call him Lounge....in reality we'll prob get bored of painting after an hour or so and spend the rest of the weekend in a huff that we're stuck inside doing chores!!) lol

Hey KS, ooh keeping fingers crossed for you, being late sounds good!

Sazzle - I am loving your explanation for cycle legs to dh, quick thinking Smile

Meringuebaby · 10/01/2014 11:45

Morning ladies!

Glad to see a few lovely BFPs in the new year. Congratulations to all.

I'm impatiently TWW'ing.. I WANT A BABY NOOOOW! Someone I am good friends with who already has a two year old girl has told me she is pg again. I am trying not to be jealous... failing!

AF due around 21st, that's ages! I really thought that I had a chance in December, but I was wrong. I was determined not to get obsessed with this TTC malarkey but it is difficult. I need to keep it in perspective, as this is only our third proper cycle after coming off the pill in Sept. I am sorry for moaning, I know others wait much longer.

Good luck to all, hopefully we can keep eachother sane through the rest of the month.

onelifeonechance · 10/01/2014 11:48

Misty, missed your bfp, congrats!

Meringue, not sure we'll keep you sane but we will certainly keep you company Smile

keepswimming1 · 10/01/2014 12:09

Hey onelife, hows you? hope everything is ok
I'm going to head to asda after work to buy a better test if still no signs later.

Moffit · 10/01/2014 12:33

Hey Becca your symptoms sound promising!! I'm still planning on holding off testing until Monday. I have, however just bought FRER tests (2 pack) so I will have to be very restrained over the weekend not to use them!!

Congratulations Misty!

onelifeonechance · 10/01/2014 12:42

I'm doing ok thanks KS, still waiting! But feeling bit more calm at the mo with it all. Had v sad few months before Christmas where all felt bit much, but feeling more positive now so hoping it lasts! How bout you, how you feeing?

keepswimming1 · 10/01/2014 13:17

Yea not to bad OL, its hard only being in with a chance every 3 months now but I guess I will get used to it. Trying my hardest not to get my hopes up at the minute. Last month I was 4 days early so I guess I'm probably just late. xx hugs to you, I no how you feel

onelifeonechance · 10/01/2014 14:05

Hugs to you too KS and fingers crossed for this cycle, we'll get there! Smile

ThoraNomiki · 10/01/2014 14:07

AF turned up this morn. Oh well at least I'm not in Limbo anymore.

Congratulations to everyone with BFP's and Good luck to those still waiting!

I'm going to throw everything at it this next cycle. Ov tests twice daily, DTD at least every other day (!), Big O after DH, pillow under bum, peddling legs, grapefruit juice, Manuka Honey... What else can we do? I'm also booking a tattoo to tempt fate.

onelifeonechance · 10/01/2014 14:21

Sorry af has arrived Thora but liking your attitude and good idea re tattoo booking, hope the law of sod well and truly visits you!

LH1981 · 10/01/2014 14:28

Oooh Thora, boo sucks to AF, but I do love a good tattoo! What will you get?

I think there may be another faint line - this time on an Early Bird test - have any of you ladies used that brand before? Twas all I could get today x

Ps, loving all you crazy cycling ladies!! xx
