Ladies!! I have had a little break and am raring to go this cycle. This is cycle number 4 for us, and I am currently on CD8, so just coming up to the "fertile phase" and plan on plenty of sex not BDing!!

I looked for a January thread, but couldn't find one?? I don't think I am the only one hoping for my BFP in Jan am I ???

Fingers crossed for everyone!!

Happy New Year everyone!!

girl on top all 3 times i've conceived Ready - so I say do what feels best for you, as you've got to enjoy the experience!! [but I would agree with best to lie down afterwards and legs/bum in the air, just add to the occasion!!!]

Hope AF does stay away for you!

I'm doing ok - for those who don't know I had a mc over Christmas, but I'm feeling better after this one than the one I had last Feb. Possibly as it was only 6 weeks, not 9, but still heart-breaking.

Pinkelephant, so sorry to hear your news. I know it won't help you, but I wanted to let you know that I'm thinking of you and sending lots of virtual hugs. After my mc last Feb, I had complications for nearly 3 months, as which point DH went away for nearly 5 months, so most of last year, I was in limbo unable to start TTC, which is all I wanted to do. All I can say is that the time will pass and everything crossed that you have a healthy bump soon! XXX

Anyway, here's to a happy, healthy, bump and baby-filled 2007 for us all!!

Ready · 02/01/2007 13:37

Fettle!! That is good news - I totally agree, you've got to enjoy yourself I will just carry on doing it whichever way we fancy and get the legs in the air afterwards!!!

Honeyapple, Peanutbutter, Babylove123, Beansprout, MrsBee, Goingfor3, Hogmanay, Nettee (I hope I haven't missed anyone) - thank you so so much, you've made me cry with all your kind words. I'm home from hospital but now waiting for the drugs to work, I wish it would all hurry up as I just want it all to be over and then I can put it all behind me. Thank you again and good luck to you all.....

babylove123 · 02/01/2007 14:15

Fettle, glad to hear you're coping well, everyones thoughts are with you!

As for the positions, i prefer woman on top as missionary hurts supposed to be better doggy but dont fancy that 1! Um, not to be gross but wot man is going to want to give a woman an orgasm after he's deposited so to speak

Pink, everyones thoughts are with you and we're all wishing you the best for 2007. I've only been here a couple of months and im so surprised by how much support people have given each other, i love it here

goingfor3 · 02/01/2007 14:43

She could always do it for herself!

babylove123 · 02/01/2007 14:55

lol, naughty!

greedyformincepies · 02/01/2007 16:08

so sorry to hear your horrible news pink elephant, i hope that you are feeling slightly better now, and that this will be a much better year for you. big hugs.....(and i dont give them out often!!!)
gald to see you on here fettle, you sound quite positive, how are you feeling now?

now to more gross things!......

babylove!....my dh frequently 'sorts me out' after he has deposited! he doesn't care at all, why would he?

ready.....my ds was concieved during a quickie leaning over the bed, not sure about dd but definately NOT missionary cos we never do that so it cant have been!

oh yes......and a HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!!!!

honeyapple · 02/01/2007 16:55

Thanks Greedy, I knew I wasnt alone with my DP finishing me off! I feel a bit sorry for you babylove if your feller is a bit disinterested in that area... dont mean to overstep the mark...
RE sex position- we generally do what we like, but switch to missionary or from behind at crunch time

decorativeD2Bmum · 02/01/2007 17:04

does it count if you orgasm at the same time? does that count...or should i tell dp i need more attention

honeyapple · 02/01/2007 17:05

I would imagine orgasm at the same time is pretty bloody marvellous! Doesnt often happen that way with me though!

decorativeD2Bmum · 02/01/2007 17:08

thats the way we like it

DP speeds up and slows down accordinly he is actually pretty bloody marvellous

honeyapple · 02/01/2007 17:10

Ha! Lucky you! My problem is I always orgasm first! whoops! Sorry TMI!

decorativeD2Bmum · 02/01/2007 17:12

lol u should go for a double whammy then!

our men are good to us arnt then hehe!

babylove123 · 02/01/2007 18:56

lmao, i like how this thread has turned into slightly slutty, like a brothel, hehehe!!!

DP never refused to "pay attention" after hes deposited but cant think it would be nice for him......in 3 yrs i've orgasmed once during sex so i dont hold out much hope on that! We have other ways called "fun"

Dont think the fun would be nice, plus you gotta have ur legs in the air for 10 mins after!

MrsBeee · 02/01/2007 19:38

There is research (and this is HONESTLY true) that you are more likely to conceive if you orgasm because the uterus contracts in waves, and this enables the cervix scoops the sperm up faster and helps it to where its meant to be. I have actually seen real life footage of this happen in action (just don't ask me how!)

... Anyway.... thats why my DH always makes sure I reach the Big O, doesn't matter how, as long as it happens! Make sure you tell your DP this babylove123

Welcome Fettle, sorry to hear your bad news, especially over christmas, you poor thing {{{hugs}}}. Here's to a much happier new year xxx

MrsBeee · 02/01/2007 19:39

sorry about the typos in that post! BTW, I saw the footage on a video, I wasn't there in real life or anything....

minxi · 02/01/2007 20:24

My af arrived today - so another 28 days, knew it probably hadn't happened as think we bd on cd10 and cd11 (dh works away) had loads of ew on cd15/16 so should have bd then, slightly confused do you ovulate after ew or before or at the time ?? Must plan it better this month....will still be on the jan thread as due end jan now (actually on my birthday!).... Good luck to everyone! babydust to all xx

beansprout · 02/01/2007 20:28

Sorry to hear that Minxi. Hope you are ok. I think it's best to BD before ovulation so the sperm is ready and waiting when the egg puts in its (all too brief) appearance!

MrsBeee · 02/01/2007 20:39

minxi if you have a fairly regular 28 day cycle, then you probably ovulate on or around day 14. I would make sure you get jiggy on days 10-17 just to make sure there's no room for error . Once you have ovulated, the egg only lasts for about 12-24 hours, but sperm can live inside you for up to 5 days, so always get busy before, rather than after when you think ovulation is taking place.

MrsBeee · 02/01/2007 20:40

usually you ovulate or are literally just about to, when you see ew.

Ammy12 · 02/01/2007 20:44

whats ew?

MrsBeee · 02/01/2007 20:56

ew is egg white mucous (i think!!), cm is another abbreviation for the same thing. Its the stringy clear mucous that you see just at the time of ovulation, very stretchy!

Ammy12 · 02/01/2007 20:59

clear?

decorativeD2Bmum · 02/01/2007 20:59

i should have said it sooner but sorry fettle and pinkelephant for your losses over xmas i wont harp on with good vibes because what i would have said has already been soo..all the best for the future to you both sending lots of hugs and kisses to you and your dps. xxxxx

i am so bloody annoyed i take back everything i said about dp being bloody marvellous...we went for a house viewing today on a buy to let basis..the house is rent by 5 blokes and we were looking round the bedrooms and dp stopped to stare at the walls (i was still in the hallways so didnt see what he was looking at) i heard the estate agent ask him somthing and they both laughed but i shrugged it off. just asked him what was on the wall(tonnes of pictures of girls) and what was said and the estate agents asked him what he was looking at and he replied im seeing if any of my ex girlfriends are up there. i am so annoyed how humiliating for me!! both laughing at my expense she must think im just one of his tarts cos thats how hes made it sound....grrrrrrrrr

Ammy12 · 02/01/2007 21:00
