Just had a quick glance,Honeybear and it made me chuckle! DH can in after work and I pounced on him even though he had just cycled home from work and was sweaty. Seems that TTC negates a preference for sex hygiene! Needs must Grin

MrsExtraOrdinary · 16/01/2014 19:49

Honeybear I'm on that thread!!Blush

Mammy2Be · 16/01/2014 19:52

Can I hop on board ladies? TTC#2, cycle #3.
BFP due 24th Jan-ish. Might try to wait until the following week to POAS as I have very irregular cycles and so would hate to get a disheartening BFN if I then get a BFP the following week.
Although I would say my chances of holding out another week are pretty slim

hi everyone, hope you all have had a good day.

had a bad start to the day when I had someone drive into the back of me on the way to work! luckily DS was absolutely fine, I seem to have some whiplash but got checked out by the doctor as wanted reassurance it wouldn't have hurt the little bean. Doctor said it would be fine but try to avoid painkillers this early in pregnancy so going for a bath in a min to try to relax!

Choccy I hope you are feeling better after seeing your friend.

After DTD anyone else struck by battle between the desperate need for a wee and wanting to keep swimmers in as long as possible! That's me right now! Legs crossed... Up in the air!!

I notice MrsKoala aka chief peddler is first to comment on that thread! Amazing!!

mama31 · 16/01/2014 19:58

Honeybear thanks for that!!! Hahaha!! Brightened up my day!!!! Only read a few pages but will be back for more, hilarious!!!! Who are these people?!!!!

mrsb87 · 16/01/2014 20:01

Lol honeybear!!! That is all kinds of awesomeness. I've not cringed and laughed so hard for a long time!

mama31 · 16/01/2014 20:02

Mrsextraordinary don't worry we share everything on these threads!!!! Haha!!!!

ImaginaryHat · 16/01/2014 20:03

Oh my goodness I can't breathe. Literally crying so hard with laughing, tears rolling down my face, can't get my words out laughing. Dh thinks Ive officially lost it. Whenever I'm feeling down I'm going to read a bit of that thread. Thank you for sharing honeybear!

LittleMissSunshine33 · 16/01/2014 20:08

OnlyMyDog hope you're ok!! Must have been scary?!

Honeybear that is so funny!!

English I'm exactly the same after DTD! And for some reason I've had the giggles after which doesn't help matters!!

Owlie84 · 16/01/2014 20:08

MrsB, I'm having mild AF style pains too and I'm not due til next Sunday! Fingers crossed eh?!

KittyVonCatsington · 16/01/2014 20:12

That's me right now! Legs crossed... Up in the air!!. That's my girl Grin

I'm sometimes like that before DTD... Do I go to the loo or strike while the iron's hot??!!

sazzlehopes · 16/01/2014 20:12

Barmy, yes be my poas buddy - i'm holding out til monday AT LEAST as that will be 10-12dpo as I'm not entirely sure when i ov. So if I can hold out further I'd be better but we will see how I feel!!!

Honeybear30 · 16/01/2014 20:16

mrsextra I assume you are not the lady who chose to share what she does with toothpaste?! It was that part of the conversation that had me in absolute hysterics! You are all quite welcome for the giggles :)

Re: legs in the air...how essential is this? I normally run straight to the loo after dtd but assuming af comes in the next couple of days I might try this. I wonder if maybe this is the problem as the swimmers come out so quickly! (Sorry waaaaaay tmi I know but who else can I discuss this with !)

mrsb87 · 16/01/2014 20:27

Oh owlie I know im being completely daft but I can't help getting excited

mrsb87 · 16/01/2014 20:31

I must admit ladies this is always a debate I have with myself after dtd but I dont want dh to laugh at me if I sit there for half an hour with my legs in the air!!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 16/01/2014 20:35

I lay for half an hour... Then had to dash for fear of peeing myself! I'm with you kitty... I sometimes have that dilemma before too! Do I kill the mood and dash or crack on and be even more desperate after!

Oh and that toothpaste on arsehole thread?! Jesus Christ! Are you lot trying to kill me off! Crying laughing! Trying to tell DH but can't spit my words out!! Hillarious!!

I will never look at Roary the Racing Car toothpaste again...

barmybunting · 16/01/2014 21:39

Thanks missmrs Smile .

honey that thread is hilarious! Thanks for sharing! I'm staying with my parents for a few days and trying not to explain what I'm laughing at!

sazzle, I get why you are hoping to wait until later next week to poas. I'm not 100% sure on ov dates either so not sure what dpo Monday will be so waiting is a plan. Although I will admit that I have already poa ic on Tuesday but with valid reason, it was my Grandfather's 90th birthday so I thought it was worth a go! Oh the reasons we use to justify poas! Monday it is Smile .

Gingerpanther27 · 16/01/2014 23:46

Not read back yet just to pop on to say got results back. Not pregnant and thyroid is fine. If my period hasn't turned up next month they'll start investigating. Cd54 now.

LittleMissSunshine33 · 17/01/2014 07:05

Ladies I finally have my constant smiley (peak fertility) but did not DTD last night or the night before because OH has hurt his back! Does this mean I should OV today? Am I too late now this month? Confused

spinningirl10 · 17/01/2014 07:23

MorningGrin

Ginger pleased you've got an answer now but sorry it's not a bfp. Hoping af arrives for you soonThanks

Fingers crossed for lots more bfp's on this busGrin

EnglishGirlAbroad · 17/01/2014 07:35

Still getting flashing smilies...I only have one stick left! Better get my fixed tomorrow otherwise I'm gonna have to just keep DTD everyday til DH goes away for a few days next thurs!
LittleMiss - def not out. This is the time to go for it. When you get the peak you will usually ovulate within the next 12-36 hours. Dtd the next 3 days! Good luck!

EnglishGirlAbroad · 17/01/2014 07:36

Oh and Ginger, I'm glad you finally got an answer, just sorry it's not the one you wanted. Hope AF comes soon so you won't need further investigation
