Second day of af and keep checking the boards but don't feel like I fit in anywhere at the moment or have anything to say with two weeks till I ovulate! Anyone else in the same boat?? Really hope this is our month even though it's only our 2nd ttc. Going to get conception vits for me and other half and also try an ovulation pack so looking forward to getting to grip with those.

SaRaRa thank you, I'm feeling a bit better now, kids are away to granny's so hopefully some peace and quite and a good nights sleep will do the job Smile

RPopz · 14/03/2014 16:49

You're prob right Emily. Symptom spotting before I'm even ovulated is not good haha!

Hope everyone has a good weekend x

bellaboo88 · 14/03/2014 21:50

Ladies, do any of you check your cervix? New to it & need a few pointers...it was high before AF & is still high at the end of AF?! Can hardly reach it, sure it was lower when I ov'd!

I don't mind having a forum mum either lol! I'm 26 in a few weeks. My Cruz is preg at around 43 & her oh had a thingymebob, I can't remember the word! So very much a shock!

RPopz · 14/03/2014 21:53

Oooch no! Makes me cringe just thinking about it!

DrewsWife · 15/03/2014 00:02

I have heard about the cervix check. Couldn't remember to check mine.

ChaircatMiaow · 15/03/2014 02:47

Oh no, I really couldn't deal with a cervical check!

katecupoftea · 15/03/2014 06:45

Morning! Am on cd16, still dtd every day as yet to have a positive OPK but have had an increase in ewcm and I don't trust those little IC bastards. Can see myself dtd until af arrives (hoping thinking negatively works) as IC still won't have shown as positive.
Just to add my bit, I'm 28 too.
Also, can I ask if anyone is drinking and how much? Was trying to be dry during this cycle but a friends birthday meant I've failed. Does it really affect chances of conceiving or do they just say that to be safe?

lindamagoo · 15/03/2014 08:12

Morning ladies Smile
Kate I drank until I got my bfp's the last twice and I'll do the same this time, don't think there's anything wrong with a few on a night out or once a week as long as it's not loads...
So our first child free night was great, shagathon has started Smile but we didn't do it this morning as I hardly slept all night so I'm going to be a 2 glass lass on my day out today, lol...

Starbright24 · 15/03/2014 08:20

Morning ladies.
hopping aboard after lurking for a while.
Tcc#4. Bfp7 april (I think)

I'm trying to have a dry month but drink lots of water (hope I shouldn't have to give up tea!)
Just getting into week of starting to piac for opks and thinking of ways to bribe dp to dtd lots - that sounds so wrong, surely dtd should be the reward. Lol

Starbright24 · 15/03/2014 08:21

Those stats should be ttc cycle #4 . No little ones yet.

DrewsWife · 15/03/2014 09:25

My boobs are still sore. It's painful to take off my bra lol. One boob is bigger. Am sure the other will catch up. I noticed boobs at work last night.

I'm sat in bed trying to arrange my arms around them. Hahah. I'm tempted to test but I know there is no point. Far too early.

RPopz · 15/03/2014 09:34

Kate I started off not drinking. I usually fall off the wagon for a week when AF arrives though! I was quite strict with myself at first but a few friends I spoke to about it said same as Linda - they only stopped drinking when they got a BFP. So now I'm a bit more relaxedwith it, I'll have a couple if im going out or whatever. Don't have a bottle of wine every friday and saturday night like I used to though!!

I've given up caffeine though, which I've found harder to be honest. Decaff coffee is rank!

RPopz · 15/03/2014 09:35

When are you due Drew? Too early for a first response?

DrewsWife · 15/03/2014 09:48

I'm due on 18th. But I think I'm more worried that I'm imagining this and I will feel awful. I did a super heavy 10 days of work. And lifted more boxes than I care to count. Had light spotting until yesterday. Confused

RPopz · 15/03/2014 10:11

Hmm that is a weird one!

katecupoftea · 15/03/2014 10:45

rpopz you going cold turkey on the caffeine? Bloody hell, I couldn't go that far - got it down to 2 cups a day (from around 6 so that's
pretty good for me!) the headaches have reduced a bit but my body does not want to quit caffeine.

drewswife don't think you can imagine super sore boobs! Do you normally get them for af?

RPopz · 15/03/2014 11:02

I went from 5 to 2 for first few months. These last couple of weeks I've quit totally (after a few days away in which I spent basically the whole time drinking lattes lol). I spent first two days in bed with the worst headache ever!! Been ok since then, though I am missing real coffee... decaff teabags aren't too crackingeither!

victoria401 · 15/03/2014 11:05

OMG rpopz I also work in a diagnostic lab at a hospital!

victoria401 · 15/03/2014 11:09

Found some weak internet reception!

I've not given up coffee or booze either, just cut down. I think its irrelevant anyway as my best mate drinks like a fish and her hubby smokes like a chimney and they have 3 kids, each with very little trying.

kurama · 15/03/2014 11:49

hi ive been kicked off the march bus this morn so thought id come and say hello Smile . kurama ttc#1 cycle 11ish bfp due 13th april

Starbright24 · 15/03/2014 12:09

Lovely for them victoria but full of jealousy.
I quit smoking myself but not managed to get dp to. He keeps on saying he will and has cut back. Only thing he drinks is coke. Sure it can't be good.
And there's me - graprgruit juice, cough medicine, evening primrose,buying preseed, opks, thermometer.
At least I get us both taking the conception pills.

Hi karuma welcome to another month

RPopz · 15/03/2014 12:27

Are you a bms victoria? Don't meet many others!

Hi kurama!

kurama · 15/03/2014 17:46

lindamagoo · 16/03/2014 00:07

kurama sorry to see you over here Hmm

Just back from out night out in Edinburgh and I have to say, at my age, (42) you don't have many firsts anymore but I've just been to a strip bar Blush

katecupoftea · 16/03/2014 00:12
