Can I just ask Heirtothebog: how come you had sex twice in one day at 2dpo? Do you, like, really really fancy your husband or summat? Hmm P.s...I like that dip below the coverline..I like it a lot

spinningirl10 · 09/03/2015 19:34

Heir, your dinner sounds lovely!
Nothing for me as I'm still full from lunch Smile

PurdeyBirdie · 09/03/2015 19:39

Forgot to tell you all: I have my 2nd interview with Lancs County Council on Wednesday arvo at 2.15!

Also..I got my appointment through for the camera-up-my-ass gig: 16th March. I will be approximately 3dpo on that day so I rang 'em up and pushed it back to the 30th when my period will have come and gone. I was worried that the action of pumping gas up my arse and into my colon might cause distress to a teeny tiny embryo so I'm not risking it. This might sound bonkers to some of you but if you look at an anatomical drawing of your reproductive system your womb is right slap bang next to your poo pipe and other faecal organs

HeirToTheIronThrone · 09/03/2015 19:39

Haha Purdey, yeah, twice in one day. I do fancy the pants off DH most of the time. I think the morning was just for weekend lie-in fun and the evening was more prosaic...

HeirToTheIronThrone · 09/03/2015 19:41

Oh no wait - it was a Tuesday! I imagine we just woke up frisky Blush

Spinning it is lush. You add bacon bits near the end as well. Gorge.

wotsits1 · 09/03/2015 19:45

oooh exciting job interview news Purdey! congrats!

mrsb0710 · 09/03/2015 19:46

Hi ladies. Quickly checking I. Have somehow accumulated about 50 fb notifications since lunch. Haha.
CD2 - nothing to report, except a smashing headache. DH asked when we can DTD this month, I'm glad he's keen. All I want right now is co codamol and my comfy bed.

Congrats to the BFPs!!!

purdey have you had an ass-scope before? Enjoy the picolax prep nasty stuff [vomit face]

HeirToTheIronThrone · 09/03/2015 19:46

Oh lord, sorry for multiple posts but huge well done Purdey on your interview! I work for my local council (unitary authority rather than county), it can be frustratingly bureaucratic but I do enjoy it.

PurdeyBirdie · 09/03/2015 19:47

(Now up to page 31)..

I'm here, Sparko and Spinning! Grin Thank you for wondering if I was dead.

Wood, I agree you ov'd on CD18 but that preposterously absurd high temp on CD14 has discombobulated our dear FF who like to rely on their '3 over six' strategy for pinpointing ovulation (the first three temps post ovulation have to be higher than the previous six). Give the poor dears a few days to realise you're not an alien and they'll pop them there cross'airs right in (or, alternatively, you could erase that stupid temp and see what happens)

Sparkly, how on Earth does your daft MIL expect you to look after an 'orse when you're so ill? Shock

Sparkly123 · 09/03/2015 19:47

Purds good news re the council app and that's quick getting the other app through, agree better to put it off!! Love that "hope" quotation.

Thepug aw she's lovely really, just irritating at times with that kinda chat. She knows about the early mc in jan therefore knows we are TTC etc. So she talks to me about it every so often. She used to be literally dying for grandchildren.. Now the other sibling has a dog (which I dislike. Sorry I know u all love doggies!) and it's like she's not bothered anymore so much as she spends ALL her time with the dog.

Coffee my husband is the same with the it will happen when it happens tripe! Ha. If he says it one more time...!!! Nooo I want it now!! Wink

Sparkly123 · 09/03/2015 19:52

Purds I think she was joking about the horse.. MOre serious about the dug!

loopylou1984 · 09/03/2015 19:54

Thanks wottsits, but I think I'm just going to stick here for now. Thank you for including me Smile

Yay Purdey, congrats on the interview!

Cd6 here, still boring.

Sparkly123 · 09/03/2015 19:54

Sammy it's almost time though!!first Springtime ish cycle... New hope! Flowers

spinningirl10 · 09/03/2015 19:56

Purdey, great news with the second job appointment and I don't think you're daft putting off the bum cam. I checked with the sonographer today that the internal vag cam was ok for me.

PurdeyBirdie · 09/03/2015 19:56

Howling at jammy shredder! Grin

I've blimmin' well crossed posts everywhere Hmm

Page 32 (but first..me tea)..

Nomio230 · 09/03/2015 19:56

Heir, I am the same. I have had a poorly tummy all day & keep feeling really hot. I think there might be a bug going round. Hmm

Nomio230 · 09/03/2015 20:00

Exciting news about the job interview, Purds. I am sure they will love you.

CoffeeTwo · 09/03/2015 20:00

Evening all. I wish DH wasn't watching football as it means I'll end up bored and googling bfps at 4dpo or some nonsense.

Congrats to ninja and fifi on the pregnancies!

Another here who's too chicken to join the FB group, even though I am friends with lovely purdey. I don't want people to know about us ttc, haven't even told my mum.

ninjabeer · 09/03/2015 20:01

you ladies are so lovely, thanks for all the kind messages

sparkly yes it was an AI conception it took 8 cycles but we got there. can't believe it has happened, thank you for all your support over the last few months you have been a star!

Trixie happy to give tips if it will help. We tried to predict ovulation day and do every other day a few days prior. we used preseed and I made sure I was totally chilled and stayed lying down with bum on a pillow for about an hour afterwards. This website was really helpful and the ladies here on MN have been amazing www.prideangel.com/p120/fertility-pregnancy/Home-Insemination.aspx

purdey yep AI all the way we inseminated on CD 11, 14, 16 and 17. My app said I ovulated on day 16 but I didn't have a positive OPK so wasn't convinced I had even ovulated. I'm 35 and this was cycle 8 of proper trying but we haven't used contraception for a good few years so it is long awaited.

DH is tentatively excited but really wary about it being such early days. I'm just going with the positive and trying not to worry. I think I'll feel better once I've actually missed a period.

I'll stick around to watch you all get your BFP's!

ninjabeer · 09/03/2015 20:09

blooomin 'eck missed a whole page in the time it took me to post! Congrats on the interview purdey

Woolly84 · 09/03/2015 20:10

Hi everyone!
Big congrats to ninja and fifi! Grin always nice to login and see some BFPs!!
eskimo my newsfeed on FB seems to be entirely composed of baby photos/updates! Somehow seems more so since we started TTC! Plus the slightly annoying clearblue adverts which keep popping up in "suggested" posts Hmm
Ah purdey what a lovely quote! Smile

wotsits1 · 09/03/2015 20:10

I'm peeling spuds. We will eat at some point during this evening. DD ate with her nan, so dh is upstairs putting her to bed (I can hear him singing the Lion King very badly right now).

wotsits1 · 09/03/2015 20:10

scratch that...he's singing Mamma Mia! Blush

Woolly84 · 09/03/2015 20:14

Doh I managed to miss a page too ninja!
Congrats on the interview purdey! Smile

BabyBumpHopeful · 09/03/2015 20:19

AF just ended for me today. So tired though...

At the risk of outing myself, (and grossing you all out) one of my fur-babies had her anal gland burst Friday night :( . Luckily DH was the one who found it (in the morning after he got up, they sleep at the foot of our bed so there it was!) and so he cleaned a lot up. I've been wiping and cleaning my dogs butt of the "gunk" all weekend. Today was the vet trip for oral antibiotics. Vet was surprised it popped so large seeing she's so little, but also happy because it means it's flushed out properly.

I don't know about you guys, but I did not know that they had to get them expressed or this might happen.. in 12% of dogs. Poor munchkin. She's not a fan of her doggy diaper either, but she looks adorably pathetic in it :D
