Wiggley I'm such a control freak too which is what makes this so hard. Most other things I have achieved in my life have been down to me and the amount of work I'm prepared to put in... TTC is the first thing that basically I have very little say in! Hard to get my head around that sometimes. I'm quite all or nothing so a casual approach was never going to happen.

Lovely baby shower this afternoon, there was another old friend there in the end (who isn't pregnant) and she regaled me with hilarious single-girl stories and sex chat which was funny and cut through the baby chat a bit (although secretly I love baby chat obviously) Really nice time and the presents my pregnant friend got were gorgeous - I swear babygrows are made of some magical fabric which is softer than anything else on the planet. Just beautiful.

Hope the spermies inside are fighting to get into my egg. Did some 'conception meditation' earlier (some slightly cringey relaxation videos on youtube.. if you can get through the saccharine american women talking it's very relaxing. Imagined my womb full of light haha)

Well done seven, great work, thank you. And love that you've put us in BFP date order.

buzzmoon · 04/02/2017 18:39

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 well done seven just in time to start our new thread nearly!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 04/02/2017 18:55

Thanks seven I'm gonna count this as cycle 1 I think .. BFP (or AF) would be due 3 march! Ovia is assuming 30 day cycles which I think is about right from what I can remember pre pill.

DH and I are at MIL's relaxing, I had a mega nap this afternoon, such a luxury!! Now enjoying some prosecco (while I still can) before a nice family dinner. Feel very grateful to have an awesome MIL, after reading some of the horror stories on here!

MrsC2017 · 04/02/2017 18:59

Well done seven!! Good work! Enjoy the prosecco grumpy!

HopefullyDothButterNoParsnips · 04/02/2017 19:02

Thanks seven - maybe we copy and paste this info on to start of new thread. Can't believe we're on thread three nearly!

DancingUnicorn · 04/02/2017 19:07

Thanks seven!

Oh dragged me down the baby aisle in the supermarket today!! :s

buzzmoon · 04/02/2017 19:08

Meep dancing that's so exciting!!!

MrsC2017 · 04/02/2017 21:53

AF is here! next fertile week is due when we are away on our city break so will hopefully have some romantic nights!
Eeek dancing how exciting!!

HeyJupiter · 04/02/2017 22:03

MrsC sorry that AF came but I know you were expecting it... next fertile week sounds like a great opportunity to make a baby :)

confusedat23 · 04/02/2017 23:00

Thanks Seven that is great!... only thing is i am 23... i probably put 24 by mistake earlier though! Lol

I'm glad you have a good mother in law Grumpy mine seems to be up and down... sometimes she seems to love me and other times its like she can't stand me! Lol

So i have just got my positive ic OPK... 2 days late and DH is away... he is back midday tomorrow so I might try and get him to get jiggy with it but as we are at nans i really dont think he will! Sad

Well done Seven! I love this thread, it is so therapeutic. Jupiter can you send a link to your conception meditation? I'm intrigued! It sounds like something I would enjoy, hope your womb light is shining brightly tonight!

confusedat23 · 04/02/2017 23:01

Parsnips you should make a new thread so you can be motherhen properly again!

Also sorry about AF Mrs Flowers

Mummyme87 · 05/02/2017 07:47
