MAD HATTERS AND MARCH HARES????? IN HERE!

1000 replies

Or should that read Mad TTCers and March Hopefuls??

Thought that I would start a March thread as from tomorrow I will no longer be eligible for the February thread. Of course I will be lurking and keeping fingers crossed for those still in with a shout... but it's time to move on.

Who's with me???

Could this be ewcm I see? I think it may be!
Pity we've got visitors this weekend. Quiet shagging required!

Yes it is Greenblock - I sent you some fertile days as agreed. Now where's my energy huh? Never mind, try and send it to me tomorrow night cos dh is out on the lash tonight and I don't want his alcohol loaded sperm near me

Greenblock · 17/02/2007 07:52

you can have my energy on sat night plummymummy - we had a silent shag last night - no giggles! - and so sunday (very loudly!) is the earliest. that doesn't sound very casual does it!?
anyway, off to have a day out at the seaside for my birthday.
Have lovely weekends!

mum03 · 17/02/2007 10:31

nomore - I have just matched your two day af! great isn't it, anychance it could mean that we will o earlier>????

Ready - hope you get your opk big positive today.

greenblock - sshhhh! quiet..... we can hear you over here... hehehe!

Hello all,

I'm grumpily joining you all. I'm on CD3 and on my third cycle of trying. I'm sure we have been doing everything right so I have no idea what I can do to improve my chances this month.

scorpio1 · 17/02/2007 13:01

Hi goingfor3

im a bit cross actually.im still not getting these bloody opk's right.line was darker yesterday(darkest i've had),but its now gone a bit lighter,like a few days ago.maybe i have then ?(sore boobs,tummy ache) and that the opk's just aren't for me?i dont think im going to buy anymore,they seem to be stressing me out more.

anyway,deep breath.....

whats everyone doing this weekend?i haven't got anything planned,just had a nice pasty and might watch a girly film later

dp has got his fight tomorrow,but he leaves at 10am so plenty of time before that .

hope you are all OK

If the OPKs are stressing you out, then I would definitely say, stop using them. I haven't had a positive yet, but the lines are getting darker by the day, so not sure. You might ov later than you think, so don't panic.

Also, don't look at it after 10 minutes... it'll just confuse the situation more!!!

scorpio1 · 17/02/2007 13:36

I've got 1 left and hen i'm not buying anymore. my CM is behaving how it should and other signs i have had before (whenn ttc ds2) so i'm going to leave it at that

Thankyou for your help,im such a fusspot!

plummymummy · 17/02/2007 16:32

Happy birthday greenblock Tbh, those ovulation sticks scare me (far too technical) so I'd much rather stick to cm observation!

Greenblock · 17/02/2007 17:18

Thank you! We had a lovely sunny day at the sea side.
ov sticks scare me as well (besides, I'm meant to be dong this casually!).

Ready · 17/02/2007 17:21

Well I thought I would give the sticks a go, but I am not buying any more either. I didn't get any line at all today, after faint ones for the last few days. I am not going to worry about it, just keep charting my temps as I have been.

Just thought I would say this in case anyone else was getting distressed by the sticks not being conclusive.

plummymummy · 17/02/2007 17:30

I think I have heard more women on here saying the opks are confusing, than those who have found them helpful. CM and temp analysis seems more reliable - and free! Glad you had a nice time at the seaside greenblock. Wasn't the sunset lovely tonight (bright pink/orange here).

scorpio1 · 18/02/2007 10:27

Good Morning CD15 here.

right,an update on my ovulation!

i definitely have,as far as i can tell.ewcm gone,after me having it for 2 days(this is what i noticed anyway).Boob tenderness still there but nowhere near as bad as yesterday.I have shagged TONS and think i will do it a couple more times just to make sure i covered it! i think DP is hoping for a shag break next week,bless him OPK yesterday afternoon even fainter(hardly there).darkest line was on friday.

so,does this mean im on the 2ww?arrrggghhh!

hope you all are OK

pinkslippers · 18/02/2007 12:00

Can I join???? I have just been lurking in the background and have changed names because i know people in rl on here.

I think my cd is 13

a/f due around the 5/6 i think? lol

Just really seeing how it goes, had m/c in sept at 6 weeks. Have two dc already but now with new dp. I am trying not to constantly think of it all the time and not get to clinical over it. seeing how things go. Although paranoid i'll m/c again so my aim is to get pg and then get to 7 weeks and then 12 and take it from there.

congrats on those with bfp and good luck to all those that are trying.

pinkslippers · 18/02/2007 12:00

jus realised my name is like yours pinkelephant wasn't my intention. sorry.

scorpio1 · 18/02/2007 12:08

welcome pinkelephant and pinkslippers

pinkslippers,my af is due 03 March-close to yours.i just know i'm going to test earlier (sorry clearbluefairy)!

Good luck
