Et voila.

This Hut is more of a Bedouin or desert tent than anything too gloomy. We shall supply our our own gloom.

Do you think when they say "spontaneous" they just mean OV that does not happen on textbook CD14 lets face it that is probably 85% of us!!!

That same comment set the chartspotters thread off a few weeks ago and we all thought it was load of old phoey and concurred that the above interpretation was prob right.

However one of the chart mates (londonlottie) did say she had read in a book called Sperm Wars that said something along the lines of:
"it is possible for intercourse to prompt ovulation if the body is feeling particularly 'primed' to get pregnant, it will pop an egg out in response to the presence of sperm. But this can only happen if ovulation hasn't already occurred that cycle"

But it would have to be in the vague area of ovulation anyway which is probably why all the advice is to go at it for the 3 days prior to OVl!

Synchronicity study seems to be saying that there are a large number of Gl/Doomers on CD2-6. Frankly, Mr Shankly, that's as synchronised as I've ever been with myself let alone anyone else.

Am feeling quite hysterical for some reason this afternoon after fighting tears away all morning. I'm not normally the roller coaster type but I am these last few days.

Seaside / Sunshine 10 pts for HMMOG!!!

I also just read that OV usually happens in the afternoon - around 4pm for most!!!

Might need to replan sex schedule - you never know - am that desperate it is worth a 4pm try on day of OV!! (obviously it will mean missing at least some of Deal or No Deal - uh-oh!)

seaside72 · 27/03/2007 18:15

lottie!! - I thougt you might appear if I quoted you!!

seaside72 · 27/03/2007 18:17

So if we go out and shag a one night stand we might egt pg quicker - bloody hell! Anyone up for trying and reporting back!

Soreheart · 27/03/2007 18:18

Ratting on 'frauds': an excellent moral dilemna. Discuss.

Duchesse's sister's ex (apostrophe crisis) - well - I think so, don't you, as long as there's some incontrovertible facts to back up the 'ratting'.

Impy's uncle, well, yes.

How does anyone learn if they don't get told off when they've done wrong? Etc etc.

And agree that Duchesse should take Huts of Doom as basis for hugely entertaining 'Christmas Stocking Filler' type / Holiday read book. I see Richard & Judy appearances and book signings the country over.

duchesse · 27/03/2007 18:19

at seaside. I did suggest that to someone on here some time ago.

Gosh, Soreheart, what an excellent idea. We could all divvy up the book proceeds and buy ourselves some gigolos to do the deed...

PMSL duchesse - I think you suggested it to me after my DH's mid cycle flop!!

seaside72 · 27/03/2007 18:24

lottie - God - that is a bit freaky (twilight zone music I think )

duchesse · 27/03/2007 19:06

Well, my old antenatal thread have just started popping out babies right left and centre.

Bovvered?

Oddly (and most spookily) I thought I might even have spotted a potential gigolo just the other day . Double oddly, it does seem that it might just happen with a shaggy gigolo - cos it's not what we're really after. Er, if that makes sense .

But would be delighted to split proceeds of Marian Keyes-alike novella, Duchesse!!
If we're smart we can get the whole serialised at the same time.
We could do it in the style of ooohh whatshername that did the Fat Club drama on ITV? Or the ladies football team. Hmm.. a bit 'lite' entertainment for the topic but food for thought. The book would, of course, be shed loads better. Ahem. Oooh we could have full casting rights over the film.

duchesse · 27/03/2007 20:16

Obviously the Firth would have to feature as one of the gigolos.

OP posts:
duchesse · 27/03/2007 20:17

plus am trying to imagine a "shaggy gigolo". I'm hoping you don't mean Swampy under a new guise...

OP posts:
Soreheart · 27/03/2007 20:36

The Firth - obviously. Definite 'no' to Swampy, that's changed the tone of my potential giggy gigolo fantasy, somewhat. Apologies for that twist.

BTW Latenightowl should be testing after IVF tomorrow.

I've just thought, the characters could resemble our nicknames.... which is not so bad for the Duchesse but a bit wierd for me or Seaside72 . Maybe I'll change my nickname to Amazinglyglamorousforherage.

I'm having Asterix the Gaul flashbacks now.

sideways · 27/03/2007 22:25

LNO - fingers crossed for you tomorrow.

LatenightOwl · 28/03/2007 09:34

Hi Folks, well I think eviction from the hut is not very simple is it? Got a BFN today and yet no AF. The clinic reckon the AF has been prevented by the prostogen (?spelling) meds so will stop these today and see what happens.

Thanks for all your kind words of encouragement and help over the last month - don't think I would have remained sane without it...will now slink off to cosy room in house and have a few sad moments then onto the wine / drink I think to get wrecked before we consider our next move. (lno slinks out of the hut with bowed head)

Re: more likely to conceive with someone other than partner. Why don't you all get together and swap!

Good luck LNO.

Impatience · 28/03/2007 09:38

crossed posts with you, LNO. So sorry it's negative. So sorry. Take care of yourself xxx

Cryptonomicon · 28/03/2007 09:44

Really sorry to hear that LNO.

seaside72 · 28/03/2007 10:12

LNO - so so sorry about th BFN
