Whether you have just started trying or been at it for years. Using IVF, AI, or just good old fashioned shagging, all are welcome.

Thanks beaut, slept like a log and feel great today. Good that you've got the distraction of your new work! I didn't get any side effects from SI until I took a bigger dose on the last day - headache and massive boobs! If I don't get my bfp this month I'll take SIs at night as apparently that's the way to stop headaches

nomio how was the theatre? We're off to the minack in Cornwall in a few weeks - I'm so so looking forward to it.

Booking the final leg of our big September holiday today! A week in Bali! Grin

Hi everyone, we went to a a themed hawian barbecue yesterday, was nice to not think about ttc, had a lot of good drink and food, dont think i can face drinking for a while, i think il make it my last blow out of alcohol for a while now , as once i go to the fertilty clinic i am going to try and cut it out completely,

hope you all have had a lovely weekend and will catch up with all the posts soon

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 13:41

That sounds great, Rainy. Just what you needed before you start treatment.

Kir. I am super jealous of your holiday! It sounds like it is going to be amazing. I predict a post holiday BFP for you!

The theatre was amazing. We saw Seven brides for seven brothers. We have been 3 times before & always seen Shakespeare plays, so I wasn't too sure about a musical, but it was really good. MiL & FiL came too & it was a really nice night.

I had a massive lie in this morning, then DH brought me breakfast in bed. Smile It reminded me that there are some advantages to being child free!

It's seems like everyone's had a really good weekend with some lovely plans.

It was my Dsis birthday yesterday so we were out for a meal. We then decided to watch a late night movie at the cinema and got home at 2.30am. I haven't been out that late since DD but it was such a good night.

A week in Bali sounds amazing kir.

DizzyMerry · 02/08/2015 14:41

Definitely nomio!!! Lie ins are extremely rare when kids come along.

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 15:04

Sounds like fun, Dizzy. How are you doing?

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 19:32

9DPO BFN. Why do I do this to myself?!

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 02/08/2015 19:47

nomio - it's just too early that's all. I'm even worse than you - I'm 7dpo and tested BFN obviously, but feeling annoyed with myself Blush

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 20:24

Lol, I am so glad it is not just me, Kitten!

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 02/08/2015 20:36

Lol, no we're as bad as each other Smile - what's your plan now? Will you test tomorrow or wait? I know I won't be able to resist testing tomorrow

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 20:42

I will keep testing every day until I start bleeding. Glutton for punishment, me! Sad

OP posts:
DizzyMerry · 02/08/2015 20:43

I'm ok thanks nomio. It all feels unreal still.

Too early for you both. I have everything crossed for you.

MrsKittenPie · 02/08/2015 20:52

nomio - I'm exactly the same as you, I can't help myself. I ordered a pack of those cheapy Amazon early tests and they sent me 2 packs so I have ended up with 40 tests! So that with my lack of testing willpower is not a good combination!
Thanks dizzym . I bet it does still feel unreal yet for you

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 21:29

Thanks, DizzyM. I am pleased things are going well for you. I guess it will take a while to sink in!

Kitten, I have a giant stash of cheapies too. I save the good ones for if I think there is a real chance.

I really don't think I am pregnant, sadly, but will keep on testing until I know for sure.

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 02/08/2015 21:43

nomio - keep positive lovely. I know it's hard. Glad I'm not the only one with a stash! I bought a clear blue digital in june2014 when we first started ttc to wait for when I'd had a line on a cheapy - obviously still waiting to open it - it's prob out of date now Sad
I don't think I am pregnant either I'm doing my usual - setting myself up for huge crashing disappointment

Nomio230 · 02/08/2015 22:00

It is so hard isn't it, Kitten? I just feel like crying tonight. I don't think it is ever going to happen.

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 02/08/2015 23:46

It is so bloody hard nomio - I feel like you too, very sad about it. It will happen for you though, your bfp will come, hugs x

spinningirl10 · 03/08/2015 08:42

Morning Grin

Nomio, 9dpo is too early!! You know thatGrin

Kir, Bali sounds fantastic, where else are you visiting?

Sounds like you've all had fun weekends. All dps family have gone home now. His sister gave us both 3 reflexology treatments in the past week so fx it works it's magic and brings us a Bfp this cycleSmile

Mummyofonesofar · 03/08/2015 10:17

I haven't read back yet - will try to tonight but if I don't get around to it then I will need everyone to repeat their stats for me. Sorry!!

Very excited to get some sunshine and sand Grin Plus DP is looking forward to some bikini wearing time - 5 weeks today and my breasts have rocketted from 34D to 34E!!

Nomio230 · 03/08/2015 13:33

Hi lovelies,

Mummy, it is nice to have you back. Not long now until Bulgaria!

Spinning, reflexology sounds lovely. I wish someone in my family could give me treatments like that. How long until you fly back to the sunshine?

Kitten, did you test yet?

OP posts:
Mummyofonesofar · 03/08/2015 13:59

Thanks Spinning cycle 27 for you now, here are the stats for info: STATS

Thanks Nomio hope you’re ok hun.

Missed you all!!

Kirjava · 03/08/2015 14:16

Welcome back mummy

I was looking at the upduffed stats. Lots of cycle 5 bfps. Totally my month Wink

Interestingly at cd11, my opk has started to get a faint line. Didn't start changing until cd20-something last month. SIs in action?

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 03/08/2015 14:35

Kir I have the cb opks do you think I should start testing earlier. I was going to start on day 12. I have 10 tests. At a guess I usually ovulate on day 18. I've taken SIs day 5-9 120,120,120,160,200

BeauticianNotMagician81 · 03/08/2015 14:36

Spinning didn't you try SIs last year and you couldn't use them for some reason I forget why.

I've had bad headaches despite taking at night and I'm really grumpy which may not be related I know. Definitely not myself though Smile
