Welcome aboard ladies!
Get your pom poms in the air, as well as your ass (post dtd!) and we might get somewhere!
Here's to some BFPs! Wine

No preseed or similar ( though autocorrect wants to change it to 'preserve'. Might that work?). I did look in Sainsburys but they obviously don't cater to ttc obsessives!

I'm going to keep swigging water and Benylin, steer clear if Wine for a few days and rely on the fact that there's a big party coming up at which it would be very inconvenient and obvious if I were in the early stages of pg. Should garuntee I'm upduffed!

I'm so chuffed I'm having a 'normal' cycle Grin I keep singing 'I'm so excited' to myself crazy lady

Hi all.
fx everything is ok kurama.

Ive worked out that I might not even be due my af/bfp on this bus but im not going anywhere just in case. Mostly because there are so many bfps I want to stay in this lucky bus

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 17:11

And this bus is the most fun bus of them all

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 17:18

Like your thinking re: the party Retro! I have tickets for Lady Gaga in Oct and it would be most inappropriate for a 7-month pg lady to attend! Hoping I will have to sell my tickets Wink

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 17:33

And if not this month, it would cause a lot of hassle to have a Christmas baby Grin!

DH is refusing to DTD because he plays sport on a Tuesday and apparently 'no professional sportsperson does it before playing'.

I didn't like to point out that he's hardly professional! Though I am now looking up timings for DTD and positive OPKs and worrying that we'll miss it if we wait till later tonight. But we did DTD on Saturday, so hoping there's still some hardy swimmers in there as a back up.

Positive Mental Attitude - this is our month!

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 17:35

missmrs, so jealous of the GaGa tickets! Sod it, go anyway. Is it seated?

kurama · 04/03/2014 17:36

English girl. no I don't think this is a common side effect. I'm pretty sure the pain on Fri was ovulation so I'm still hoping I could be pregnant. This is the second cyst to burst and I don't want it to happen for a 3rd time! fc for a bfp! Grin

gennibugs · 04/03/2014 17:37

Speaking of inconveniences, we've got a friend's wedding in December overseas. DH booked the hotel last night - and I thought ooh might be PG by then so wouldnt be able to fly. He did get the free cancellation option though but still...would be most inconvenient....plus the hen do in November... Grin

Kurama I hope it is as the others say. Hope you are resting.

On a separate note I am going for a run tonight once I get home. I can no longer justify the stone Ive put on as being down to TTC. I need to get back on track (and ignore the creme eggs in the fridge and the kettle chips in the cupboard).

gennibugs · 04/03/2014 17:38

mwhahahaha Retro my DH said the same last cycle before football practice. I gave him my best Hmm look.
Ha

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 17:40

Retro yep it's seated but very high up and definitely not suitable for pg women!

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 17:41

Omg genni cream eggs and Kettle chips?! I'm moving into your house!

kurama · 04/03/2014 17:41

Yer I am genniebugs. got someone to cover my shift at work tonight coz didn't know if/when I'd get to go home. And not back at work till Thurs. now I'm in bed as hardly slept last night and dh is making me pancakes Smile

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 17:47

Well in that case missmrs, it would be a real shame if you can't go Grin

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 18:10

Indeed Retro, just think of how limited life would be - no exercise or concerts! Tut

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 18:12

I know. Wouldn't it be rubbish?

katecupoftea · 04/03/2014 18:15

Please don't talk about exercise.

katecupoftea · 04/03/2014 18:16

Also, finding the caffeine reduction a big struggle. Headaches all day. Any tips?

LemonDrizzler · 04/03/2014 18:32

So the gp visit was not great. He did a test which was negative so didn't seem to believe I was pregnant in the first place (to be fair given I can't be with these dates). But I pointed out I had three pos tests. And CB digis never lie!! Having a blood test tomorrow. Not feeling good about it as the only thing that makes sense to me is that last af was actually early mc and I just have the hormone still. Oh well. At least means it can happen for us. :(

lorelie · 04/03/2014 18:39

posy I like 'blasty' lol, we have called our little bean pancake to celebrate the day of the 'cake!

lindamagoo · 04/03/2014 19:01

Lemon what did gp say about your positive tests? How long will you have to wait for the blood test results? I hope your ok x

RetroHippy · 04/03/2014 19:08

lorelie I've been singing my own made up pancake song.

It goes something like this;

'Im making pan-cakes. Then I'm gonna make a bay.be.'

It's a good song. Honest.

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 19:21

Oh no Lemon sorry for the confusing situation you are in Thanks

LemonDrizzler · 04/03/2014 19:22

He basically said "yeah that's weird"! Glad we cleared that up then! Not sure how long the results take. Not sure what it is going to show either really. We'll see I suppose!

lindamagoo · 04/03/2014 19:25

Lemon it's a very strange one, hope you don't wait long for results. Do you have anymore tests that you could do yourself?

missmrsmummy · 04/03/2014 19:28

DH thinks he and I are too weird/kooky and we need to stop being weird before someone finds out! Then I told him it's ok, everyone on mn is weird too! I told him about your pancake/baby song Retro and he made me sing one!

Our future child is doomed. Grin
