[MrsExtraOrdinary]

Oh dear we've run out of space! Hopefully somebody lovely will copy the stats over

Where you were ladies....

All caught up now.

Congrats Fairy

And fx for you Farang

So sorry for your news mademoiselle

Welcome bobsy and cockbollocks

Congratulations fairey

I'm 7dpo and symptom spotting like crazy - first the low blood pressure and now ewcm! I'm not going to get my hopes up though believe that you'll believe anything

pikz and madame sorry for the bfns, but it's not over til AF is here.

Congrats Fairey that's great news! Our first August bfp, it's been a slow start to the month!

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for your tips on getting a sometimes reluctant dh to dtd at the right time. We had an argument last night (not related to ttc) it was cd 11 for me, the day after my positive opk and more than likely my ov day and needless to say we didn't end up dtd again!! I got really upset, I'm 35 and have no children. I feel like we are wasting our chances every month!

Anyway we had a good chat today and I explained all this and said we need to make more of an effort and when I say we need to dtd for the next 3 days then we really do. He said that he has also been a bit worried as well and asked whether we should go for tests to check everything is in working order. We are coming up to 6 months now, which I know isn't long in the grand scheme of things but because of our age I think we are going to get the ball rolling with the tests rather than just plod on blindly.

I'm glad we have cleared the air a bit and have told him how I feel as was starting to get really stressed by it all. Next month we have agreed that I will tell him when the fertile times are (which I also did this month) and we will make more of an effort.

So this cycle I think I ov'd on cd 11/12 and have dtd cd 5,7,9 and 10 (it's cd12 today) I hope we will still be in with a slim chance.

So sorry to see you here MademoiselleG I am so, sorry for your loss and the terrible time you must be going through.

So glad that you have come back to be with us though - we are all here for you.

No update from me really, cd 17 here, lots of dtd, ewcm been and gone but no temperature hike. :( Last cycle was a lot longer than normal (31 days, always 25/6 before mc).

I am hoping I am just heading for a later ov and another long cycle.

How's everyone else doing?

Congratulations, fairey, how wonderful!

Lucie, I think you're in good stead for a chance at conception this month. Three and two days before are decent shots even if not on the perfect magical ovulation day! I wouldn't count it out, anyway.

Last night, I told my husband by text on his way home from work that I had been feeling frisky all day. (True.) I told him a few of the things that I had been thinking to get his blood pumping, and we had a bit of a tumble when he got home. It was fairly rushed as I was going out with a friend about twenty-five minutes after him getting home.

I was left very frustrated. I orgasmed and whatnot, but he didn't. When I had done my bit ooh and ahh, he pulled out and said to get ready for my friend. I told him I didn't understand, that we had plenty of time for a quicky, and he just said "No we don't." He left the room and we haven't really spoken since.

I feel like I raped the bloody man. And I feel like HE has made me feel like this, because he didn't say no which he could have if he wasn't in to it.

Do you have any suggestions for how I can explain to him that (1) I am not a total psycho and obsessed with his spunk (which I didn't get last night anyway) - I really did just fancy a shag, (2) it's not okay to fuck me and run if he's not interested (I see it as the equivalent of my literally laying there while he humps me until he cums, which he would never let happen) and (3) all the negativity he's swinging at me about sex since HE suggested we should try for a baby is making me feel utterly worthless.

I don't know how to talk about this without him feeling attacked and it turning into an argument. But I'm really hurt that he thought that was okay.

Hi all,
I hope you don't mind me asking this as I've never posted on mumsnet before. I'm going slowly bonkers trying to symptom spot. We weren't meant to be Ttc for another couple of months but had a little accident this month. I have short cycles normally 25/26 days (occasionally a random 28 day).
The accident happened on day cycle day 8. I'm fairly sure based on cm that I ovulate late at about cd16 ish. So in my books I was fairly confident I wouldn't get pregnant. Anyway roll on cd20 (last Friday) and ive been feeling sick, had extreme tiredness, and gag at smells no one else seems to smell like our bin or petrol fumes. These were all symptoms of my previous pregnancies. Yesterday I had pink cm which I don't normally get.
I'd prefer not to poas stick until Friday when I'm late as I've never had a positive test when I've poas early.
What do you guys think? I'm now cycle day 25.

Sorry for butting in on your post but I think I know you'll understand!

LC

Oooooo Nutella of course we understand! However I'm not sure you can keep us all in suspense! Why don't you try a frer which are very sensitive and poas! Sounds like very good symptoms to me

Well I would if I had one but blooming waiting for man to come fix the dishwasher so can't get out! I could ask dishwasher man to bring one!!

Afternoon Ladies,

Firstly congrats Fairey I hope you have a healthy 9 months!!

MrsE I love baby shoes/bootys especially little trainers etc lol. My dp thinks im mad.
Sorry about the bfn.

Spinning I used to have a ford KA bloody hated the thing but they are nice and cheap lol

Pikz sorry about the bfn

Good luck lp*

Mademoiselle Sorry to read youve had a really hard time recently but its good to see that your quite positive. I hope you dont have to wait long for your bfp!

Kitty hope the soy isoflavenes work!! Im not trying any new things just taking the vitamins I know I need (Calcium, folic acid and b12).

Welcome Bobsy

Chandlers oooo I have my fx for you!! I really hope you get your bfp!!
Plus mmmm magnum lol

Genni dtd the day before your fixed smiley should be enough of a chance for you.

Welcome Natalie

Welcome Cockbollocks not often I need to type that lol

Mzzzf My opks start off lighter than control and then went to darker than control. Theres a possibilty either you oved on that day inbetween your two test or it detected LH but not enough to show you oved, theres still a chance you will get another LH surge.

Shetland fx the symptoms turn into a bfp

Lucie glad your chat with DH worked out men find it hard to understand sometimes and are often just as scared as we are. Treat him to some costumes sometimes itll help lol.

Tickle maybe he didnt mean to make you feel this way, try to explain to him how its made you feel and I expect he'll feel awful for doing it.
If he didnt feel like it why didnt he just say.

Nutella all you can do it test and see if its positive. If you dont really know when you oved its hard to say, but really if you oved earlier your Af should come earlier.

5 days until AF is due and im still feeling mega nauseous, im getting some creamy cm as well as some ewcm, plus my boobs bloody hurt.

I couldnt finish my exercise dvd this morning nor my breakfast and smells are making me feel ill.

I know im setting myself up for a fall but I really cant stop myself, plus if I get a bfp next week its just before my dps 30th birthday!!

Hiya, will have to catch up but just popping on to tell you af got me. September here I come xx

Sounds promising blueberry What day will you test?

Sorry about AF lp Hopefully September will be your month.

Mademoiselle so sorry to read about your TFMR, my heart goes out to you. I would ignore the mw advice too, hopefully you get your BFP very soon.

Chandlers all sounds incredibly promising, FX for some good news in the morning.

Genni even if you get your solid smiley tomorrow it sounds like you have a really good chance!

Fairey congratulations on your BFP!!

Expecting AF next Tuesday and even though I'm pretty sure we missed ov I'm still finding myself symptom spotting- it's hard to get out of the habit!

Shetland Im going to try very hard not to test until the day AF is due but we will see lol.

LP sorry Af got you!!

Sounding promising blue and chandler - fx

nutella you know you're going to have to poas now just for us

LP sorry AF got you. Treat yourself to something nice today.

april it's hard not to symptom spot. Even in the months I've known we were unlikely to get a BFP I still couldn't help it!

tickle I agree with sunbathingcat and would have a calm chat. I think men just don't realise the roller coaster we go through and just how tiny that window is.

lucie so glad you managed to have a chat with DH.

Xpost before, sorry AF got you lp See you on the September bus.

Does anyone know if morrisons sell frer?

Congrats Fairey86!!

Glad you got it out in the open lucieloos.

That's horrible tinkletinks, I'd be hurt too. Big chat is needed I think!

Sorry to hear that lp2014

I'm sorry ip, if Aunt Flo ever decides to grace me with her presence I'll be right behind you! Still aloof!!! I've been prodding, wearing white trousers and pants, star jumps, generally shouting at dh! Where the fuck is she??? At this rate I'll miss September Altogether and have to wait for October. I'm generally going around the twist

MrsE I'm doing star jumps next to you in my white trousers

ok so now ive been sick and I have cramps if im getting ill im going to be really annoyed lol

Oh blueberry you poor love

haha Pikz, I think limbo can just bugger off now don't you

I'm right there with you MrsE!!!
Luckily because of temping I know I've just ovulated earlier. By the opk I'd be 15dpo today. Actually only 9dpo. No chance of pregnancy and I'm sitting September out so feel a bit redundant.
Good luck with your bfp's everyone :)

Eep xBlue - am crossing everything for you! 10DPO? X x.
