sparkles I'm 29 and have 2 dc, boy and girl, aged 9 and 6 Smile first dc was conceived in cycle 2, and second cycle 1!! However, I'm.around 4 stone heavier now Sad and stressed and think that isn't helping ttc. We haven't been.doing anything different apart from.I've used OPKs the last 2 months so I know when I ov. Next cycle I'm giving preseed a try though :)

nickynackynoo31 · 22/04/2015 22:25

how come I don't. know.how to do bold writing???? Sad Sad

ok my stats....
32 ttc #3...have 2 boys aged 12 and 4...apart from opks just doing good old dtd Smile
I'm on cycle 1 after coil removal and had that in 4 1/2 years with minimal bleed throughout that time!!

(I hope some one is writing all this down to prepare the list lol) VIOLET Smile Smile Smile xx

sparklesandfizz · 22/04/2015 22:31

Lol at your substitute bold writing Nicky!!
Looks like I am the old hag on the thread. There's always one.
At least I'm not a bitter old hag...disclaimer I reserve the right to morph into a bitter old hag temperarily should my pissy stick not be of the right variety on Friday. Grin

sparklesandfizz · 22/04/2015 22:34

Or maybe you were shouting at violet in case she has drunk herself into a coma in the corner ( as I plan on doing if it's not my month) Wink

Issie339 · 22/04/2015 22:40

Now I can type bold too! Grin

My stats: I'm 30, ttc #2 (DD is nearly 2), this next cycle will be cycle 7 of ttc (DD was conceived cycle 3) I did do opks, then didn't, next cycle I'm doing them again plus all the other stuff I bought!

Issie339 · 22/04/2015 22:43

I love that Violet is the responsible one trusted to write the stats down- well she does work in A&E so that makes her responsible in my book! Definitely don't trust me with stuff like that.

nickynackynoo31 · 22/04/2015 22:55

I'm not happy I'm the one who can't do the bold writing!!@ someone enlighten me please Grin Grin OR I MAY HAVE TO RESULT IN WRITING IN SHOUTY CAPITALS! !!! Smile Smile

I am going to write a list as im so confused with who's on which child and where in the cycle....yes I am sad haha but truth be told it takes me 20 mins to write a post as u forget who's where and what's happened lol xx

Issie339 · 22/04/2015 23:00

It's a secret Nicky Grin lols

Issie339 · 22/04/2015 23:03

Though actually you just put an asterisk before and after whatever you want to bold so Nicky makes Nicky bold (though no spaces, I left the spaces so it wouldn't go bold this time)

sparklesandfizz · 22/04/2015 23:03

nicky I am ttc child 4! It is dangerous to make me laugh that much as I find a certain amount of pelvic floor weakness results in urinary escapage - you literally made me piss myself (tmi but what the hell)

as for the writing in bold look down right to the bottom of the page when next posting and read instructions under emphasis OR DONT ITS UP TO YOU.

nickynackynoo31 · 22/04/2015 23:12

hello

nickynackynoo31 · 22/04/2015 23:13

woo hoo...thanks issie and sparkles

nickynackynoo31 · 22/04/2015 23:15

sparkles I am laid in bed peeing myself ( not literally) oh half is shaking his head lol x

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 23/04/2015 06:21

Reading these posts has cheered me up this morning (getting up at half 5 is never a good thing)! Well done nicky on your new found skill!

Used up my last cheapy ov stick this morning and it's the strongest one yet. Didn't get to dtd last night, so may be out for this month if there is no rudeness this evening, and I did actually ov way later than I imagined. If today is ov day, and AF arrives on time, LP is 11 days Confused

MaybeMrsMum2016 · 23/04/2015 06:23

Oh and stats-wise:

I'm 27, TTC #1, cycle 1, AF/BFP due 4th May.

May the fourth be with me!

sparklesandfizz · 23/04/2015 06:57

Hehe maybe love your bad Star Wars pun i do!
You need to be irresistible this eve.

nicky so pleased my misfortune entertains you so, as you can imagine hay fever season can be tricky! Let me be a lesson to you all - excercise those pelvic floors ladies Grin Blush

Hope you lovelies have most excellent days today & look forward to checking in later x

nickynackynoo31 · 23/04/2015 07:53

maybe I love that pun....
get Mr maybe pinned down tonight lol Grin Grin

sparkles I'm sorry hun but I am still laughing this morning (ps...I'm not far behind you on the knackered pelvic floor) hahaha....its probably just a good job that both my boys were born c section as I think naturally down there would have been a no go ever again Grin Grin x

Faybelline · 23/04/2015 09:13

Thank you for your welcomes :) I'm 27, Derbyshire.

Yes this will be my first child, sorry i'm still trying to get the abbreviations!

Had the copper coil out last night and 'My period tracker' predicts I will ovulate on Friday so 'DTD' ;-) last night, I purred a little this morning but to no avail!! :'D Damn work..

So when would be the earliest I could test or is it just best to wait and see if I come on?

Good luck to everyone TTC!! xx
