Treaclepie19 · 20/03/2014 17:29

Hehe thanks Owlie :)
Drown my af sorrows haha. Been very emotional today!

Spotti · 20/03/2014 17:50

Finally managed to put a stats list together and totally just had to search my laptop keyboard for the ^ button to make that last bit in italics...its so much simpler on my ipad!

Please let me know if I've missed anyone or got anything wrong.

Oh, and because I'm cool and was bored, I've added any EDD's (estimated delivery dates) which may have been mentioned in passing...

Enjoy!

tootles off to make tea< Mmmmm, tomato soup and buttery bread rolls. Yum yum!

Thanks Spotti, it looks good seeing the EDD there Smile

lindamagoo · 20/03/2014 18:02

toots when ttc last time my oh started, how shall I say, doing his business in a jar and I would use a syringe to insert it into myself, I've always wondered wether or not I actually got myself pregnant, lol Grin

Starbright24 · 20/03/2014 18:04

Good list spotti.
Yay for all bfps to come!

Opk just done. Line dark but not quite as dark as control. Sounds same as Linda's.
Thanks for all info on Brazil nuts. I was just getting dp to eat them and now I can scoff themm myself too!

lindamagoo · 20/03/2014 18:07

Star I'm wondering if I drink too much to get a proper +opk as I defo feel like I'm ovulating

Metalhead · 20/03/2014 18:09

Thanks for the stats Spotti! If I take my average cycle length before mc my BFP would be due on the 20th, but as I've always had quite irregular cycles I have no idea what this one will hold in store for me...

lindamagoo · 20/03/2014 18:13

Oh did I just make myself sound like an alcoholic, lol, I drink too much coffee, honest Grin

Metalhead · 20/03/2014 18:17

Have you tried cross-checking with a Clearblue stick linda to see what a positive IC looks like for you? I did it last cycle and it really helped, I'd got a pretty dark line on the IC but no Clearblue smiley, that only appeared once the IC test line was darker than the control line.

toots123 · 20/03/2014 18:17

Oh I see linda!!! :)

lindamagoo · 20/03/2014 18:25

Metal I might try that next cycle if I'm not lucky this month Smile

MissMrsMummy · 20/03/2014 18:25

Linda excuse me if I'm being thick but what is the difference between doing that and DTD? Sorry Blush

MissMrsMummy · 20/03/2014 18:29

Sorry I've just read back and I think I see what you mean - if he is unable to perform because of all the pressure I'm putting on him then he can do it privately and I still get my dose of swimmers?!

Quite like this idea as we tend to get a bit fed up of DTD after a few days!

Where do you get a suitable syringe from?!

flirty30s · 20/03/2014 18:32

Thanks so much spotti you're one very organised lady!! CD 5 today, can't be arsed going thru another month of BD every second day lol.

lindamagoo · 20/03/2014 18:36

MissMrs we had a baby already at the time and we were having to dtd as soon as he was sleeping, before he woke up again, and it was a bit much on my oh when I was basically saying we gota do it NOW, lol, and a friend of mines had done it so I thought why not, he could do it when he wanted and just wake me up for my part Smile we just used the syringe that came with calpol, didn't use the long bit though just the plunger...

toots123 · 20/03/2014 19:57

Yeah deff a good idea! My dh probably wouldnt want to do this though. He's private about diying and tells me he doesnt do it (as if I believe him) if no luck dtd tonight then I will suggest it though as its happened twice ina week and we areclose to ov!!!

Treaclepie19 · 20/03/2014 20:15

Thanks Spotti, love the edd list :)
Sent you a private message by the way :)

Enjoyed meal out forgot about work and we got through 2bbottles of wine :) Was nice to have a drink after not drinking for aaaaages.

Owlie84 · 20/03/2014 21:47

Nice one Treacle!
We haven't tried the syringe method yet. We've stumbled into a routine of my DH, ahem, doing his thing beside me, and then when the time comes, he leaps on top and deposits where he should be depositing. Sounds so un-romantic! But it's sort of helping him. It never used to be this way!!

Owlie84 · 20/03/2014 21:48

Thank you for the stats Spotti!

MissMrsMummy · 20/03/2014 22:33

Owlie that's what we do sometimes. Linda I mentioned your idea to DH and he is not keen. Let's see when it's CD18 and we have been Dtd since CD6 lol Wink

AF finally ending, hopefully tomo. Then I will start the next phase of my plan. Cough mixture and cb digis.

Still doing vit b6 and grapefruit juice. Gives me acid reflux. But I'm prepared to suffer!

Viperama · 20/03/2014 22:45

Hi ladies I'm jumping on board for the ride too if I may.
TTC #1, cycle 3 but first since MC mid Feb. Estimate BFP due April 16th

lindamagoo · 21/03/2014 07:35

Welcome Viper and good luck Smile

lindamagoo · 21/03/2014 07:36

MissMrs I think if i had mentioned it to my oh ealier the last time he would have said no too but after almost a year I think he was relieved...

spinningirl10 · 21/03/2014 08:03

Morning all :)

I have to say it's relief to find that my dp isn't the only one who struggles to dtd on demand!! I find it so frustrating!
He also says he doesn't diy so that options out.
Today is cd11 and hopefully I'll get a positive opk later so plan is to dtd later before his night shift.....not ideal! FX we can get the deed done.....going to wear something I know he likes today and hope it gets him in the mood, lol :)
