Hie jem,hope you are feeling better hun. Enjoy your this weekend and on with lots of conga nxt week

Tee,hope the rash has cleared and you are getting ready for the fw.

My word parney, 12 weeks already!! Time surely flies. Hope you enjoy the most relaxed trimester.

Radders,congrats on reaching your first milestone hun and all going well.

Cd20 of 24 tick tock tick tock.can't wait to get my bfp,haha!!if I'm lucky ,baby will be sharing birthday with ds1&2 and dh all born in march.

Happy Friday everyone

Still no witch for me! Do you think being on hols could delay her?

I know what could delay her, PREGNANCY!! Take a test Jodders, I'm on the edge of my seat!! (Must sell them where you are!!) x

I second you tee.test test test

Jod, have you cm? TEST!
Time is going super fast Mimi!! Not long till your BFP, I just know it!
Sorry about AF Nim, enjoy prosecco x

Haha! I really don't think I am. It's probably the ridiculous hear making me feel ill. I don't want a BFN to ruin my hols. I do have light cramps. I bet she shows over night.

Footprints - looking positive. Lots of dtd for you

Nim sorry AF got you - lots of luck for this cycle

Jod - feeling really positive for you - can't wait to know!

Thank you mimi - this time in 2 weeks I would've had my first scan. Can't wait.

I've had quite a few twinges today and little pains and it makes me so anxious. I feel like there's more chance of this being taken away from
Me than there is it going right. I know I shouldn't think like that but that's how I feel.

At a wedding tomorrow so that will take my mind off things!

So, no opks for me this month so far. I have loads left, but have been refraining. Have had really high hopes previous with Dtd practically every day I have just decided to let nature take its cause. Funny thing yesterday on cd14 for the first time ever I felt some cramps? Thought it was weird and then realised it could be ov cramps. Who knows, but I'm not going to symptom spot and get my hopes up! It will happen when it does, I'm just going to be relaxed about it.

Just to put it out there. Hubby been away so made an effort to come home ferries week, Cd5, 7, 9, 12 is when the deed happened. Again, it's a bit of a gamble, I was more active last month and it was a bfn, so maybe limited Dtd might help! No hope for July as hubby off to US for one whole month :-(

Ferries week?? Lol! Fertile week!!!

Summer I'm taking the exact same approach. Next week sometime is fertile week (not exactly sure when as ov varies within a few days for me seemingly).

CD 10, ov expected about CD19 ish but won't know exactly when... dtd last night. Been so tired this cycle with the end of term, trying to sort new car, tutoring, being stressed about massive holiday to America next month that we haven't paid for... going to be an expensive outing!

Jem I think I'm still in shock! The disparity between the ages is stark...

I know what you mean Jodders about just not feeling it, but try to stay positive!!

Good luck Foot!

CD 29 15DPO

No witch and light cramping subsided. Trying not to get my hopes up.

Cd10

Any news jodders?! I feel another bfp coming..

Footprints looks really promising hope you're enjoying fw!

Mimi fx for your TWW hope you're staying calm

Radders as far as I understand there should be lots of twinges going on as things bed in and expand. It must be a worrying time I can't imagine not having been there, but keeping everything crossed for you and looking forward to seeing your scan and everything going as it should be.

Summer I find the balance of DTD hard to judge. Should you just go for it as much as poss? Or does that reduce sperm quality? Doesn't really seem to be an answer! I aim loosely for the smep plan which is every other day then daily when you ovulate.

Kate I know the divides that have become apparent are really scary. Your US trip sounds exciting! Where are you going?

I am going to do some opks this week, just feel more relaxed knowing the lh surge is there and things are happening as they should. We have DTD days 4 and 8 so far, aiming for every other day this week then daily when I ovulate. Just heading up north for a family weekend celebrating my grandmas 91st birthday. Some stealth DTD may be in order later!

Last cycle when I dtd loads I didn't catch but when I did less (but still quite a bit) I caught. So I do think you can do too much. I think it's luck of the drawer sometimes!

Feeling pants today for the wedding. So bloated! No energy to do my hair. Argh

Yes I think there is an element of luck isn't there? Some people I've seen on here try months and months and then get pregnant after having sex just once in fertile week!

Just takes that one swimmer to be in the right place at the right time.

Radders I'm sure once you've got your hair and make up sorted you will be radiant what are your tactics for avoiding alcohol today? Although you're not a drinker anyway are you?

Yea no one will notice any difference as I never drank anyway. And I'm driving so we can come back tonight. Which again is normal - I always drive as I don't drink! Glad I don't have the not drinking to contend with.

I was saying to OH though - I hope the meal caters for pregnant ladies! People don't think of that - the last wedding the meat was pink so the pregnant women couldn't eat it. If something comes out and I don't eat it that's when people will notice as I love my food!

CD16 for me, going on holiday tomorrow so hopefully time will fly by!

Dtd last night as had more EWCM and cramps (Same as on day 12)

Even thought we have dtd most days we seemed to leave 36hours between each so hopefully not over done it!

Jodders I am so excited for you!!

Sorry been crazy with our end of financial year at work. Missed a fair bit on here.
Congrats again radders, hope the scan goes well and you get some lovely pics!
Jodders that all sounds really good!
Sorry AF came nim and good luck to everyone in new cycles.
It's cd23 for me, had little pinching and twinges Thursday and Friday. And some creamier cm Friday. Hoping that's good and AF isn't going to come early! Might try some ICs mid of next week to see as impatient to wait for AF xx

PS Enjoy your hols. It has certainly taken my mind off the TWW. No sign of AF here today but I googled and being on holiday can delay it anyway due to changes in temp, food, travelling etc. I do still feel really nauseous particularly in the morning and evening time but I suppose that could be the heat too. Nipples are sore and look quite big. I'm on TP inspection every 30 mins today!

Definitely an element of luck Jem! I think I was very lucky with my boys. I know I'm not trying as long as others but to me it does feel long as I have never experienced this before. Coil came out on 23rd March and I naively thought I would be preggers by now. Will feel more confident if I get to CD 32.

CD 3
My game plan for this month is to put on some weight. I'm not underweight (bmi about 19) but I was nearly a stone heavier when I conceived my other two. I've done some reading and low body weight can effect ovulation and luteal phase.

Trying to put on weight is as daunting as loosing it because it's not like I can just "eat what I like". I kinda do already. I need to make a conscious effort to eat more than I want to, and not just junk.

I've bought some of the Tesco version of slimfast shakes which I am planning to have as an extra snack every day. I've also bought some yogurts to have at work. I'm aiming at increasing my protein intake rather that fat and I'll see how that goes.

I know I haven't been trying long but I feel really downhearted about it this month for some reason.

Good luck Jod, my cycle twin. I hope you have more luck than me.

Thanks Nim. Eat Plenty of nuts (Brazil maybe?), avocado, cheese, meat.

No sign of witch today but feeling so so so sick. Had to lie down and sleep twice. Hardly able to eat.

Jodders when is your AF due?

CD10

Hi everyone, I've had a busy weekend and no time to catch up.

Jodders- fingers crossed AF has stayed away for you.

Nim- adding lots of protein to your diet is excellent, and you can get some good toned definition. Good carbs to help put on weight are avocados and bananas. If you don't like eating fats. Sounds like u have a good plan. Sorry to hear you feel disheartened, it's such a sad and tense ordeal all this tcc business.

PS - have a good hol!

Radders- hope the wedding was good and you are not feeling sick and tired. Hoping you don't get all the unwanted symptoms of pregnancy. When are u going on hols?

Jem- yes enjoying fw thanks. Yes I'm using opks too as I feel a bit lost not knowing, and at least a guide to when is good.

Summer- hoping you caught the egg.

Cd10

So far dtd 3,4,6, 8 (am & pm), and 10.
Had positive opk Friday and Saturday along with EWCM and a negative one today. Could definitely feel like something was going on inside today so possibly ovulated today. Seems a bit early though? As usually would be around cd14? It's suppose to happen soon after clomid but surely not that fast? Anyway, going to continue the opks for a bit incase.

I might temp tomorrow to see where my temp is at ?? as I haven't done that this cycle so feel unsure if ovulated or not.

I'm on CD30

Last month was 27 days. According to FF I was due two days ago. Suppose I could have ovulated late though.
