28 years young here Wink

Oh Rhiannon that's exciting, fingers crossed for tomorrow but a line is a line Smile

RhiannonElward · 31/01/2015 17:14

Purdey I can't get a photo of the bloomin thing. I have a camera but no memory card in it and my camera won't talk to my laptop. I'm struggling to get it to show up in a photo anyway. It is the faintest line, honestly. You told me to wait until Sunday and I should have listened! Now I am tortured until morning.

Also, if I have in fact been upduffed, I have probably either conceived wearing a bottom inspector hat or a yellow cape and headpiece. I shall have to keep the outfits for the baby box haha.

kissinggiraffe · 31/01/2015 17:19

purdey I'm cd 18. First month using ovia and I don't temp or use opks so not sure I trust it's opinion!! But will dtd regardless. ..

Sounds exciting rhiannon fx for the morning.

Oh, flipping Nora! Angry I've just bit the bullet and tried to order maca root from Amazon for £14.49 (120 capsules, high concentration 5:1) but the p+p is six quid-odd! I can't justify that when DH has lost his job Sad

PurdeyBirdie · 31/01/2015 17:25

Nomio, moving house is indeed the stuff of fiery hell. I was 22-weeks pregnant when I moved into this house and, despite dire warnings about lifting heavy stuff, I really did have to muck in and lug stuff around. I just couldn't stand there idle. I hate moving house. It's the pits.

PurdeyBirdie · 31/01/2015 17:30

Rhiannon, always listen to Doctor Purdey. Don't fret though, you're preggers..I can feel it in my wee. Can you explain those outfits, pliz? Confused

Kissing, with that amount of vadge juice I would have sex for sure. Will you get opks next month? Chart?

Does anyone have any requests for charts to be posted from the FF gallery? Want to see pregnant charts where the couple have only had sex, like, days and days before ov? Want to see the chart of someone old? Someone very fat? Someone with progesterone deficiency? Thyroid issues? Pregnant on post-mc cycle? It's all here and I fancy a rummage through the gallery...

Wishing123 · 31/01/2015 17:35

hi all. bfp due tomorrow. been feeling sick these past few days and feel really different. usually by now I have sore boobs and stomach cramps when AF due even 2 weeks before but I've had nothing yet. did a test last night but bfn I might way til 4th so I know I'm defo late and do another one.
can food taste different when your pregnant? food hasn't taste the same and I've been smelling very strong smell I wouldn't usually smell like cheerios smelt very strong n made my stomach turn and I smelt cocktail sausages in the fridge that turned my stomach xx

Nomio230 · 31/01/2015 17:39

Sounds promising, wishing. Stronger sense of smell is often one of the first signs of pregnancy.

purdey If the tablets are actually from Amazon themselves, not a third party seller, you should be able to sign up for a free trial of Prime & get free next day delivery. Smile If not, just swear at the computer for a bit.

Wishing123 · 31/01/2015 17:44

I really hope so this time, when you see that negative test it makes me feel so down n think another month gone [sa
I'm ttc#1 cycle 10 CD29 age 28 (in 10 days) will be an amazing gift if I get a bfp xx

Nomio230 · 31/01/2015 17:46

fx for you *wishing. It would be the best gift ever!

I know what you mean about the tests being depressing, but don't give up. I am sure you will get there soon.

Wishing123 · 31/01/2015 17:54

my df has 1% morphology so thinks that's why taking longer but its so frustrating and rather than being late with AF I'd rather it come straight away so I can keep trying rather than teasing me xx

australopithecus · 31/01/2015 17:54

Good luck wishing!
You too nom with the move!
Damn jobs and losing them purdey that totally sucks!
Here an even fainter opk line tonight so yes to the surge yesterday arvo!!!!!!!!!!!'

Wishing123 · 31/01/2015 17:56

thank you ladies xxx

australopithecus · 31/01/2015 17:57

does a jig

Nomio230 · 31/01/2015 18:00

Nice dancing austra!

I am off to randomly throw more things in boxes.

Blue500 · 31/01/2015 18:03

Fx for you wishing Smile

Kissing I hear that wet / damp cm means nearly fertile cm i.e. just before ewcm.
I had a ton of wet cm last month the day of my pos opk.
Just waiting for my own wet or ewcm to appear this wkend Smile

De-lurking for the first time since joining this bus to congratulate the bfps and have a little whine. Took soy this month days 3-7 and on CD 17 I have yet to ovulate. Frustrating! Fab to know there's somewhere to come to have a little moan about this kinda thing. Ttc has been getting me down this month.

Fx for everyone!

ozmund · 31/01/2015 18:10

Congratulations already Rhiannon
I am also intrigued by the "bottom inspector hat". What kind of parties have you been going to? ;)

HeirToTheIronThrone · 31/01/2015 18:19

Ooh Purdey - any charts for people with long (40 day plus) cycles? My last two have been and although signs are I have ovulated ahead of time this month it would be interesting to see! Thank you, fount of all knowledge x

RhiannonElward · 31/01/2015 18:23

I was trying to make conception fun, so while dp was out at work I made stupid outfits. One night I made a bottom inspector hat and ID so when he came to bed I had enforceable powers to inspect his bottom and did so thoroughly. Another night I made a full outfit including armbands, cape, footwear and a headdress, I made him a loincloth and a hat, I text him instructions when he was coming home late for work that he had to get naked immediately and report to bed. I was basically making it impossible for him to turn me down. He'd never have had the heart to leave me there with a cape on and candles lit.

fx for everyone else who's testing about now, I am so hoping for a better line tomorrow. Good luck everyone!

Beansprout30 · 31/01/2015 18:23

Marking place.

quietly what day do you normally ovulate? I've taken soy for first time this cycle too, waiting to see when I ovulate

MaMaPo · 31/01/2015 18:29

quietly sounds frustrating. I'm using soy again this cycle and have had ov pains, quite intense, for the first time. I noticed on the soy thread that I'm not the only one! I didn't think to chalk it up to the soy. Hope you get your ov soon.

purdey, yep, I'm in Aus.

Gave up on sleep completely, first time in years. Alarm going off in 2 minutes. Joy. But pissed off that I can't temp! Trying to work out if/when ov happened.

australopithecus · 31/01/2015 18:29

Good Pamela Anderson, rhi that's some going. I can't even imagine being that creative. It hurts my head just to think about it. It usually hurts my head to think beyond "you look sexy tonight, mr Australopithecus, fancy a bit of rumpy pumpy?" so to be fair the bar isn't set very high. Now, back in me younger days, ah, what a seductive and adventurous lassie I was then! harks back nostalgically

MarysPrayer · 31/01/2015 18:33

Rhiannon you kinky little minx! You totally deserve a bfp IMO.
