TTC#1 Thread 5. The one where we actually got to January 2016! NOW you can start! TMI alert throughout.

[StarkyTheDirewolf]

Welcome, welcome! And may the pink lines be ever in your favour!

Post your stats, don't be shy, no symptom too gross to share! We are a Lucky thread with lots of bfp's and baby dust and PMA!

All okp'er and ic enthusiasts welcome!

kat that is some amazing list work! Snaps for you!

In a bid to lower his bollock body temperature, Dh has been rocking what I've named 'The Donald Duck' this week. That is to say, he has been styling a t-shirt and no pants to bed. I only found out this morning that's why he's been doing it! I just thought he fancied going commando! It's the male ttc version of fur coat, no knickers!

Thanks Kat
I feel included, you ladies rock :-)

Jumping on this bus please! Huge congrats to the amazing number of BFPs! Wow!

28 years
TTC 1
Cycle 2
CD 14
Probably testing around the 23rd Jan

Waiting for a positive OPK but DTD a lot ATM to try to catch it. Also, just kinda in the mood.

Glad you enjoyed the article, it did make me chuckle!

Stark your DH is going to be the biggest fertility geek ever! We're going to need to add him to this group to answer everyone's questions in runner's absence!

I also keep mumsnet a bit quiet, pretty sure DH is well aware tho, updated list to include my date

Love the organised list!

I've been an absolute hormonal bloody mess tonight, cried my eyes out 3 times hysterical crying no word of a lie becuase I fancied a wine and some chocolate but didn't want it becuase I feel fat. I didn't end up getting the wine or chocolate becuase when DH offered to go to asda I then cried because I felt bad so he didn't go.

Yeah, so that's my level of crazy today. Thanks AF....

I'm not sure what my date will be because my cycles do their own thing every month

I'm not even sure if I'll be January. Will let you know if I don't ovulate soon enough and I'mbon the next bus!

Congrats space what a lucky thread!

I was missing - I have added myself below.

In terms of tips for 2ww - keep kidneys and feet warm, drink lots of milk, eat 1/5 of a pineapple from ovulation for 5 days - eat core too, take 75mg of aspirin each day, PMA, get lots of rest

Ovia tells me my fertile window starts today!

Hey this is my very first mums net post!!

Ttc baby number 2 and on my tww. Been trying for about six months with not much luck. Tried cheapo opks this month and never got a positive but think I might not have used them properly as same happened when trying for first!

Anyways....

I'm roughly 3-4dpo (I work out from cm and sore boobs around ovulation time!)

Started to get cramping on the right side lower back tonight....hoping it's a good sign but trying not to get my hopes up!

Thanks for the list Kat

I think I've fallen off the January bus. Just passed a pink tinged gloop of discharge sorry for tmiand had cramps most of the evening 😔

Asked DH why he didn't want me to POAS yet and I had to explain that I really do have convincing symptoms and I'm not just testing for the heck of it and he said he just didn't want me to get my hopes up and get upset (it's our TTC #1 after mc 5 months ago). But I said at least I will know if it's a BFN instead of keeping my hopes up another week. And also I'd get the news when I'm ready instead of AF in my pants (which is never a nice suprise)

PMA = positive mental attitude

I am missing off list :( and I am too stupid cannot get copy function to work on my ipad... Please can someone be kind enough to add me: I will test on 18 Jan fx for 5th time lucky!

Lillian hi five for awesome list making. That's a huge number of jan testers... I think there's gotta be a few more BFPs in there
Littlebelle you can hop onto the February bus tomorrow if pink gloop turns into red river

(Okay completely getting obsessive about list now that I've seen drink is in the wrong place but I think people might get pissed off with too many lists)

kat I love the lists! Thank you! And you too Lillian. Suddenly this thread seems less confusing and I feel less lost in it!!
