SQUARE ONE TO GRADUATES - expecting more graduates in July!

[raddersmrs]

Rollover thread!

Nim I can see a faint line on the first - fingers crossed!

Weird abdominal pains in the night and lower back ache. Am staying at a friends though so could be the different bed.

Nim I can see faint lines on both! Lots of luck for a sticky bean xxx

Nim I can see lines! Congratulations!

I can see a line on the top one Nim!! How many days post ov now? Can you do a pink dye test tomorrow??

I'm 11dpo today. What's a pink dye test (?frer). AF is due tomorrow (lp only 11 days). I have a bucket of ic tests and a Tesco one. I'm going to test on ics to see if the line gets stronger. Last time it just disappeared and then AF showed up so I'm not getting my hopes up.

This month over the four days of fw (which ff predicted correctly) dtd only two days: day of positive opk and day after (ov day) but dtd loads before and after fw. Been concentrating on dtd for fun this month and not procreation and that's kept Dh willing. Think he's been quite happy with my increased sex drive. Earlier in the month especially I've made it obvious that the goal is fun and not swimmers in the right place (sorry if TMI). I think we've become a bit closer because of it and if this month is not successful that's my plan for next month (of course will do my best to get the swimmers in the right place around ov day ).

Yes a super drug or FRER test. You are being very patient. Try to stay positive! I hope this is your month.

Hello ladies
Sorry have been awol but ttc has been taking everything l have.dont even know where I am in the cycle but it's been fun to relax.

So excited for you nim hope the line only gets darker hun.
Sorry for af foot!hope this is the lucky cycle for you.
How are you tee jem kate busta ,miss you guys loads.
Hope our preggy moms parney radders ps jod purple are doing just fine and taking good care.

Waves all round

Jem I had the most lucid vivid dreams the other night too. The same night as you in fact. I wonder if it's the pregnacare I'm taking?

How's the OPK today Kate?

Nim I can't see anything, but I'm on my phone. I find those IC tests difficult to read though - even a positive from a very pregnant woman looks faint to me!

Hey Mimi how are you? Glad you are relaxed this cycle. This TTC is a hard & draining game - hopefully there is an end in sight for us all though!

4 DPO here - all very boring.

Nim- I can see faint line on the top one! Fingers crossed for you. After my false one on those tests last cycle I'm bit dubious myself, but as long as you didn't do them mixed with an opk I think you can say that's a positive. Try tomorrow with a different test as well as an IC. Hope this is it for you X

Hi mimi, how did u find the clomid?

Kate- any positive opk today?

Busta- are you feeling hopeful about your dtd dates this cycle? And did you opk?/temp

Tee- yes I'm feeling better now thanks it's the weekend. Quite a relaxing start to the weekend. Started on the sexathon! Managed last night and this morning, so hoping it stays like this.. Taking what I can as def having twinges and cramps already! Last day of clomid today for this cycle. Temp good today so it's not happened already.. Phew! Using the pre-seed as clomid has dried me up!

Mimi!!! I know what you mean about ttc seemingly taking everything. I stopped tracking at the beginning of the month but am a junkie once again!

CD 21 and finally got a positive opk!!! Along with some EWCM for good measure! dtd last night but not since cd 16 before that. It only takes one right?? Hopefully dh will agree to tonight (it is Saturday, right??) but he was finding every other night too much and couldn't... ehem... but maybe, just maybe?? I hope he takes a little sleep this aft!

Nim - I too am pretty rubbish at line spotting, but I think I see one on the top one. Oh I sure hope so!!!

Hey Footy - we DTD on CD 14 only in fertile week & I ovulated on CD 16.
To be honest, all the other months we have been at it like rabbits in fertile week & nothing, so I thought a laid back approach might help.
Where are you in your cycle? Hope this cycle isn't as confusing for you as the last one!

Glad you got your positive OPK Kate!

Hello mimi good go see you, glad to hear you're feeling more chilled about it all

Hurrah for sexathon footy enjoy

Perfect timing kate hope he's keen again tonight.

I'm 9 DPO today and feeling light headed and nauseous. Looking back through my pink pad journal this is not uncommon for this time in my cycle at all. It's frustrating as you would think those would be early pregnancy signs, rather than PMS

Nim, I can see trace of colour in the right place on both tests. Hope they darken. I'm laughing at the swimmers in the right place.. I literally had to jump on DH and very nearly missed the swimmers at the last second but obviously caught them in time!
Hi Mimi, love the relaxed vibes from you!! Hope all is well! I don't know if it's pregnancy but I'm like a pure demon today, everything is annoying me, hope it passes.
Lots of luck everybody!

Hi mimi!!! Good to hear from you.

Parney - will be interested to see if you have a boy as you think you just caught the egg! Any gender feelings?

Hi Jod, yea we did it day of ov and day after so no prep beforehand! Kind of panicked when saw positive opk as dh had been away and wasn't going to get to dtd until following morning. That in itself points to a boy, based on what I've read here! Everyone I meet tells me it 'looks' like I'm having a boy... Whatever that means! I think they're all right though . We're surrounded by little boys, can't remember the last baby girl I've met, I wouldn't know what to do with one!!!
When is your party? Have you had the 20 week scan? Hope sickness has subsided!

I was all bump and upfront with my boys. Craved apples, yoghurt & hot cross buns with my first and jam doughnuts & wotsits with my second. Any cravings for you yet grads?

Glad you git a pos opk Kate! Hope the tww goes fast. I too am an addict of monitoring this and that. I give up for a bit, but the suspense kills me.

Jem- I made a list just being on norethisterone (progesterone) and it pretty much noted every symptom similar to pregnancy. So I feel I won't be getting excited this time with every twinge and symptom. It's a shame though as deep down we secretly hold on to every hope we can. Wish it was a clear sign before the tests.

Busta, it only takes that one sperm & egg, so let's hope it's your cycle! I'm cd5, same as Tee.

Tee- how's your deeds coming on? Have u started yet? I have, I'm getting lots of twinges so think ill ovulate in next few days. Is really early.. Hope it's ok to ovulate mega early. Opk was dark today but not positive yet. Are u temping?

Hi everyone, sorry not been on here but wanted a month off from trying. No tracking, no googling just relax.
Just trying to catch up with all the posts.

So yesterday was my bday and I thought seeing as I think I'm two days late I will do a test. Forgot to do one with FMU so did one after a cuppa and could not believe it but it's positive! Did another one few hours later to check and was even darker and did a frer this morn and positive again. I think I would be about 4weeks few days or 5 weeks

Oh wow Pepper! Happy belated birthday, and what a gift!!!! That's some restraint waiting until two days late. Eeek so exciting, congratulations! Just like Purple's approach for the month. Have you worked out an EDD?

Congratulations pepper! Happy birthday and what a surprise. You must be so excited. Xxx

Nim- did u test again this morning with FMU? Fingers crossed for you xx

Congratulations pepper glad taking a relaxed approach worked for you and happy belated birthday

foot hope the clomid is brewing up a healthy egg and good luck.my experience with it was ok,a little nausea at first and feeling more activity in my ovaries lol.only downside was hardly dtd.

nim any good news fx

parney is the line on your tummy dark yet?old folks tale says a straight line is a girl and one that doesn't join on the naval is a boy.

Congratulations Pepper, that's amazing! Good news for the laid back approach.

Foot, the clomid seems to make ovulation earlier (in you at least).

Glad you have a positive opk Kate, you have decidedly had one dtd in the right place, as long as you dtd last night or tonight you'll be in with a great chance.

Fingers crossed Jem, when are you testing?
Here is the photo from this morning, a bit clearer I think??? I did two tests at the same time.

Parney hope your feeling more human and less demon like today. Waves to Mimi and Jod, nice to see you back Mimi.

Thanks everyone. According to my apps my EDD would be between 14th may - 17th May 2017 I don't feel pregnant at all it's so strange apart from extremely sore boobs and back ache. Also had a lot of pulling type pain in lower stomach.
Hope everyone is ok and Nim let us know how you got on testing again

Congrats pepper!! Amazing news. What was your relaxed dtd pattern this month? Did you dtd anytime around ovulation looking back?

jem not long till you know.rooting for your bfp hun.really wish ttc was a straight forward and easy thing but no no, you can only do so much !!

Thanks jod are you feeling any better now?

busta hope your tww flies by fast and you get a bfp at the end.l don't even know what cd lm on and it's such a relief not wondering whether af is late or coming soon.

kate glad you finally got a +opk.hope you managed to dtd.fx
