Haha MrsE, I'm in costa coffee and just laughed out loud at the not wanting to look at each other comment!! We do the same as English and flip over before the finishGrin

MrsExtraOrdinary · 22/09/2014 09:05

Autumn you've put my mind at rest! Smile All this flipping business, ok I'll give it a go, but pretty sure I'm going to break my hip and end up with a fertilised eye! Grin I will explain to the paramedics that arrive at the scene, the penis dragons MADE me do it!!!! Shock

Aprilray · 22/09/2014 09:08

Morning ladies!
Mrs I can definitely remember at least one person saying they got their BFP doggy style.
CD14 and got my first flashing smiley this morning Grin DTD last night and plan is to wait until solid smiley now as we think that we have been over doing it a bit and DHs supplies are then depleted at the crucial time.

Aprilray · 22/09/2014 09:08

That should have said MrsE my phone dropped the E!

ChandlersFarang · 22/09/2014 10:43

HA loving the filthy chat over here this morning!! You'd better be able to get upduffed doggy style or I'm screwed (pun intended!!)... We can acrobat it around every which way during sex but when it gets to the finishing strait, DH won't have it any other way!! GrinGrinGrinGrin

I've read that missionary and doggy are best for TTC as they get the business end of the dragon closest to the opening of the cervix... Maybe just on top might fail the TTC positions test on account of not being sufficiently gravity-friendly?!

What are you ladies like! You made me chuckle out loud at the hairdressers!

What a conversation for a Monday morning. :)

Sorry to those of you having a tough time.

MrsE Sorry if I misunderstood, glad you dtd but sorry that all is not mended with dh yet.

Solid smiley over here! Woohoo. We dtd yesterday and will also dtd tomorrow to try and make sure we catch the egg!

We have switched from preseed to conceive plus this month. They seem pretty similar, but loving the less fiddly lid on the conceive plus tube! :)

gennibugs · 22/09/2014 11:50

Morning all!!

I've read lots of people seem to conceive doggy style (yes I have Googled in the past "best positions to conceive in")
The fertility specialist I saw told me it made no difference though but Dr Google says otherwise (my DH was Shock that I even asked lol)

So cd31 and still no AF! what the heck is going on I have no idea! I feel all crampy so sure she's on her way. I just want her to arrive so I can start plotting next cycle. Think we are going to start dtd a bit later but keep going for longer into the month.

Pikz · 22/09/2014 12:14

Thank you for making me smile as I feel at rock bottom about ttc this morning.

More pregnancy announcements on Facebook and I feel like I really am the only one it just doesn't happen for

MrsExtraOrdinary · 22/09/2014 12:34

Come on Pikz! You'll get there! Wink Keep positive Thanks [hugs] and we need a chocolate button!

spinningirl10 · 22/09/2014 12:35

Genni, were they 100% sure you didn't ov? Maybe worth poas just in case.

gennibugs · 22/09/2014 12:38

spinning they seemed pretty certain. I have wondered whether to poas. But I don't have any in the house and I'd feel such a fool if I went and bought a frer only for it to be a bfn and for AF to start hours later (which always happen to me ha)

pikz sometimes it's just hard isn't it. You wonder why you've been dealt such a unlucky card. But you'll get there. We all will

sunbathing If no AF tomorrow then I will poas I think. I've just wasted so many £££££ on sticks and im sick of seeing bfns! Sad I'm fairly certain AF is just foxing me deliberately. my cramps are getting stronger so must be imminent.

Afternoon Ladies,

Loving the chat this morning glad I didnt read while my boss was here lol.

MrsE After dtd doggy or on top I try to turn over with out loosing anything and lay there for a while. We try to have a variety of positions so we dont get bored so hopefully one of them will work lol. Ps more often than not we end up in missionary because of my back, arms or knees.

Lucie Nice to see you DH is researching I often wonder if my DP is but I doubt it lol

Genni Is it possible you ovulated later...you might have ovulated then but you might have after your scan are bodies can do weird things sometimes.

So today is CD 15 normally I would have got a positive opk yesterday or saturday but nothing so far. However im still getting the signs ive had my massive string of ewcm (tmi I know), crampy belly and sore boobs so maybe im just running late this month. I see what opk says later.

All dtd cd 7,9,10, 12,13,14 and will do tonight and as much of this week as possible, so determined this month I think my DP getting a little annoyed lol.

CurlyJay19 · 22/09/2014 13:56

Hey ladies, I am back from hospital and in my comfy p.j's Smile.

Went to A&E early this morning and told them what was happening and they took my bloods. They were really good and professional and they even wanted to admit me because of my recurrent miscarriages. Bloods came back negative pregnancy but it was not ruled out that it could have been a very early pregnancy. Was taken to gynae dept and got checked out pretty well with an internal scan. Doctor said that there were no traces of a pregnancy nor was I miscarrying. She did see a 24mm follicle working it's way down (I ovulated on Saturday), fingers crossed this one catches any sperm, although doubt it as even though I OV on Saturday we did not DTD as I was already bleeding heavily. She said that these ramdom heavy bleeds somestimes happens to many women, although for the past 30 years of periods it has never happened to me before! She said that maybe my lining was very thick this past cycle and ovulation must have made me bleed again. Well heck, my fanjoo seemed like an open tap whilst sat on the toilet Shock. She said if any further problems to come in immediately. Anyways I have an appointment with my own gynae on Wednesday so lets see if he says the same. Got 2 sneaky days off work, woohoo!

Btw, what has happened and why are you all LOLling so much?! Must read back as I'd like to LOL with all your comments, lolololol Grin Grin Grin

xBlueberry88x · 22/09/2014 15:30

Hi Curly Glad they checked you out properly, im glad they dont think it was mc.
A few months ago I was bleeding mid cycle not as much as you but enough that I needed a pad and definately didnt feel up to dtd.
I believe it was the vitamins I was on and stopped them the next month, they also made me a week late.

On me news I did an opk at work and it was positive so only a day later than normal, ive got mega pokey pains on left side as well so hopefully all the dtd weve done and are planning to do with meet the egg...COME ON SPERMIESSSS!!!

Aprilray · 22/09/2014 16:10

Glad you've been checked out Curly. I've had 2 random heavy bleeds, one second month of ttc which I think was a very early heavy period caused by stress and another when I was much younger. Glad you got a few days off work.
Genni, how annoying for you. Sometimes I've POAS and AF has started within the hour. So if you don't get a BFP then hopefully AF arrives and you can start your next cycle.
Yay for the +OPKS Blueberry and MrsG. I usually just do one a day but seeing as I have loads of them from CB for the trial I am going to try a few times a day this cycle.
Just been to catch up with my friend who has a 6 week old baby girl, was lovely to have some cuddles. I want one so much!!

spinningirl10 · 22/09/2014 16:53

Why oh why are men such complete dicks!!!!!!!

My dh text me from work last night and said here are my holiday dates get something booked , I spent 2 hours online finding something cheap and cheerful in Tenerife, gave him 3 options. He said I don't want to stay somewhere like that, book us something nice, so I went back online came up with some other options and left him to think about them. I had another quick look this afternoon and found a bargain with great local flights. Now dp says he only wants to go for 5 days as he doesn't want to miss the weekend work. This means flying from London which is a 4hour plus drive. The result is we've had a row, well he shouted at me and I listened astonished at what he saying!!! Now he's gone back out to work and probably won't be home until after midnight!!! Grrrrrr rant over and breatheHmm

MrsExtraOrdinary · 22/09/2014 17:00

Oh spinning, you have my complete sympathy!! Fucketyfuckshittycrapola!!! Have some of these Thanks I tell you what, I'll come on holiday with you and we can leave our dhs to sulk together, Wink hope he's remorseful when he comes home.

mzzzf · 22/09/2014 17:16

TTC sucks balls! Big fat hairy balls!!!
Ball shaped bullet point for ttc suckery below:

*I'm on CD13-ish and DH is now away with work until CD17, considering my cycles are pretty short I'm guessing we'll miss ovulation.

*Feeling all teenage with new-non-cerazette-hormones running round me right now, it's like I'm 15y/o again and want to cry at everything.

*Not having DTD with DH for the last 18 Shock days for various reasons; me away, him being tired, me being tired, spotting, my folks visiting etc etc

Apologies for my teenage strop but an October BFP looks very unlikely at the mo! Sad

spinningirl10 · 22/09/2014 17:27

Haha MrsE, yes come with me, I think we would have a lot of funGrin my dd was sat at the end of the room when he was ranting at me (not sure he knew she was there) when he left she said what the hell was that about!!
Dd and I had a lovely morning shopping for some interview clothes for her as she has some lined up and I'd told her about last nights holiday planning.

Mzzzf, oh dear we're all going through it this afternoonThanks
