Sorry for the bfn Nordic! You must spend a fortune on hpts. Hope all the symptoms turn out to be a BFP afterall, you've certainly been through the mill.

I took my last soy last night and big fat blank OPK an hour ago! Don't know why I tested really! Lol! Will hold off till Sunday now and keep DTD eod!

Treaclepie19 · 09/10/2014 20:24

Yeah English that's true. I'm just worried cus I didn't tell her we were ttc until she was finished.
Not much I can do now. Hey Ho.

Boosk · 09/10/2014 20:24

Joey and Frolic that sounds really promising! FX for you!!

Good luck, blueberry Smile

toothachereturns · 09/10/2014 20:33

Hey ladies. Found you all! Do you mind if I tentatively hop on the October bus?

Had 2 months off after my early mcs.

We haven't really ttc but then haven't been too careful either! On cd24 today, 8dpo.
How have you all been? Smile

Boosk · 09/10/2014 20:37

11dpo is still early days Nordic hang in thereThanks

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 09/10/2014 20:38

Can I ask a question knowledgeable people? Are you meant to get lines on OPKs all through cycle (even ovulation) but just only get a 'positive' OPK when line is darker than test line when you ov? i may have peed on an opk not that im obsessed or anything

wanttobeamummyin2015 · 09/10/2014 20:39

that should say *(even after ovulation)

Boosk · 09/10/2014 20:40

In other news I'm so bored waiting for ov, stupidly I didn't bother with any opks this month and I haven't got round to getting a basal thermometer yet for tempting so have been relying entirely on checking cm. No change yet but ov should be due in next couple of days so hoping to dtd tonight if only to clear the pipes ð???

Coralcolour · 09/10/2014 20:42

Sorry I've not had time to catch up as it had moved so quickly and I've been busy but I hope everyone is ok.

So CD40 for me and still no BFP or AF so it looks like I didn't ovulate this month. I've now got to wait for a prescription of provera to bring on a period and take double the dose of clomid.
On top of that I have problems with other things in my life at the mo and I just feel like I've wasted all this time on a non existent cycle and now it's more waiting around, it's so frustrating and I was so sure I was pg this time (as always) so upsetting Sad

Anyways I'm not going to make the October bus so I'm guessing I better hope off and join the November one and hope I make the end of that one instead.

Good luck to all on here x

lucieloos · 09/10/2014 20:43

Yep chandlers you will definitely be first Smile I'm just having the old dildocam this time, I'm a bit nervous about it really but I'm sure it will be fine and I really want to get everything checked out, just hope it's ok. I want to get blood tests booked in as well, going to ask about progesterone and LH, are there any others that I need?

Treaclepie19 · 09/10/2014 20:45

Hiya tooth! How are you?

toothachereturns · 09/10/2014 20:49

I'm ok Treacle! Not sure we should be ttc just now as I "discovered" that my OH has got his business in major bother with the taxman! Angry Angry
But is there ever a right time for ttc?? So here I am! What's new? x

spinningirl10 · 09/10/2014 20:52

Hi tooth, good to see you back, really hope you get a sticky bean soonThanks

Wanttobe, I've always got a faint line but I don't test with them at beginning or end of cycle. You need to use an hptGrin

Boosk, fx you ov soon.

Treacle, how are you?

Treaclepie19 · 09/10/2014 21:00

Exactly tooth, there's never a right time!
Not much new. I'm trying to relax and mot stress out about my upcoming due date.

Hi spinning :)
I'm ok thanks. Worried about having reflexology around ovulation still :p
Otherwise things are looking up :) just need my bfp now.

toothachereturns · 09/10/2014 21:00

Right here are my stats:
Tooth 36, ttc#3, cycle 5, BFP due 15th Oct ( I think.... although I've had 2 really long cycles so might be near 18th)....
I'm poas in the morning tho. 9dpo Grin

toothachereturns · 09/10/2014 21:05

Aw Treacle. Thanks Wine

Boosk · 09/10/2014 21:06

Sorry you are having such a frustrating time coral, hope you escape from limbo soon and get some luck next month. Thanks Thanks

Boosk · 09/10/2014 21:07

Haha coffee there seems to be a lot of that going around. I poas last month even though we only did it once during the right time AND we used protection!Blush

KittyVonCatsington · 09/10/2014 21:08

Treacle Reflexology is fine before ovulation. In fact, it is fine in the TWW and pregnancy but most practitioners are uncomfortable with that, purely because if something happened then reflexology might be blamed by the mother. Reflexology doesn't use oils or affect the body in the same was massages do. I had reflexology at 4 weeks pregnant -was bliss!

Frolicacid · 09/10/2014 21:12

Sorry about my earlier rant! I feel so unbelievably tired and grumpy, despite having a good 7 1/2 hours last night. Feel a bit better after doing all my jobs and a long, hot shower.

Thank you sunbathing and cariad for the book recommendations. I will be ordering them on the first day if AF makes an appearance.

All the information on this thread is great. I am going to try soy if I'm not lucky this cycle. All the alcohol talk is interesting as well. I've cut down in general and totally stopped a few days post ovulation. I recently did some training on foetal alcohol that was quite shocking.

want to be, I have always had a faint line on opk, just a stronger one around ovulation. Maybe I'll try one later and report back.

Can any of you local ladies who have been pregnant before explain to me what, if anything, happened to your nipples? I really can't believe I'm asking a bunch of strangers this. But, something is different about mine today. They don't really hurt, or tingle, but I feel strangely aware if them iykwim. They have been like bullets a couple of times for no reason. Thus never usually happens without a lot of stimulation. Despite all the jokes, I'm trying hard not to symptom spot but I'm struggling no to think about my nipples constantly. Any experiences?

Frolicacid · 09/10/2014 21:15

Local ladies??? I meant lovely ladies! I'm not fussy where you are from, I just want you to tell me about your tits!
