Here we go - for as soon as Part 2 is fully full. Enjoy the ride!

Love the stats mango!

Can I ask you a question about conceive plus (and anyone else who can answer) - do you use it externally or internally?

Tried to go to tesco for eggs - the queue for the car park was ridiculous and as it was the only reason we were going we turned back around

What is the difference between preseed and the boots one then? (Can't remember the name but lube-incident story was about that!)

Great stats mango and interesting on the shortness of breath! I had this when I got my bfp and when I asked the midwife about it she said oh it's far too early for that to be pregnancy related but I knew it was. My house is on 3 floors and I'm very fit but by the time I reached the top floor I was short of breath. It definitely is a symptom imo

I've had shortness of breath too. Definitely seems a symptom.

Congrats again mango :)

Thanks everyone. I keep calling this my support group when I'm talking about it to DH. You are all great and have really helped me cope with the tww each month.

Fancy, we put it on DH and it helps him slide right in. No need to put on or in me at all. We've got the tube of it though (no applicator) and use it like a normal lube. I find it better value and a better texture to preseed and there is no faffing about filling up an applicator and inserting that (not very sexy). I find preseed a bit sticky and it dries quickly but conceive plus is nice and slippery.

You too treacle. Hope you are feeling less worried now :)

I have both in my drawer. I am a lube fanatic. I like to slip and slide all over the sheets.

Wheeeeeeee!

Thanks mango :) I'm feeling a bit better thanks, still worried but trying to just enjoy it :)

Haha fancy :p

Hahahahahaha fancy, just picturing this really serious teacher going 'wheeeeeeeeeee' with a big grin!

Made me spit out a bit of my mouthful of wine and mini egg there fancy lol what it's the Easter hols after all
Think there's an internal conceive plus and an external. I use preseed internal and conceive plus external. At the same time. So I suppose I'm a lube fanatic too. Wheeeeee!

lol @ fancy.

We use the conceive plus externally (for all the fricking good it's done us). i do love a bit of lube too. I've tried the balance activ one too and it was ok but think i prefer the conceive plus.

never seen pre seed otherwise I'd probably buy that too.

Just planning my strategy for next month and thinking of giving reflexology a go but there are so many people offering it locally i have no idea who is good or not!

I've been thinking about reflexology too Genni but might leave it another month. We've discussed our POA for next month and decided to go for 'Beginning to End Shagathon' will definitely need cheering on from any of you unlucky enough to be getting on the May bus with me (I'm THAT convinced I'm not pregnant)

Oooooh, I have another 'unhelpful' symptom: very creamy cm. Either means I'm about to ovulate or I have ovulated-very helpful

I'm a Balance Activ girl (the one you get in Boots) and I have both the pump and applicators. Most times, I just use the pump externally on me but when I know I am ovulating (not often!) I will use the applicators internally. I find it reduces the need for excessive foreplay (I'm such a romantic!)

Thanks for the stats CagedMango-so pleased for you and hope you get a darker positive soon

Foreplay? What's that?

genni -try and go for the certified therapy Reflexology practitioners rather than the 'spa' variety. The Beauty spas/all-in-one beauty salons will be lovely and gentle but you really want them to press hard to get your ovaries going and your Fallopian tubes fired up.

Too true, fancy

Is green wee a symptom?

Haha fancy

Victoria-no idea! Never heard of that before. What have you been eating?

Overdoing the pre-natal vitamins, maybe? My extra B6 has made it go fluorescent sometimes

Victoria, I have read it somewhere I'm sure. But then berocca turns your wee green too, so I wouldn't want to say for definite.

How green? Lime green? Grass green? Olive green?

Who is in charge of the stats? Was it Kitty or English?

Also, I was browsing on the ante-natal threads being judgemental because I'm not on them and noticed the document on the December thread where everyone puts in their details - is that a thing?! It was an impressive looking document.

Ooh, let me finish this coursework and I'll update the stats now the lovely English is a May passenger

Victoria there is a list on the pregnancy boards of symptoms people had early on and I'm sure green wee was one of them! I religiously pour over that thread looking for symptoms.

I think I've found someone specialising in fertility reflexology so will give her a call tomorrow. I think that and just simply DtD more is all I can do but may is looking like a horribly stressful month work wise so can't see that happening.
