@MrsAW2018 Keeping fingers crossed for you

Hi ladies!!

Thank you so much for all your good luck wishes for the move - all has gone well, we are in the house, and I felt this was the absolute best moment to pop back on the thread and update you...

So... I'm currently laid flat on my back in the corner of the stairs with my legs up the steps!!! Haha!! We have just christened the house... as we have no curtains except the bedroom we had to hide!!

I am certain I have ovulated as I had a huge temp rise this morning. I didn't expect to for another few days and with the move, this is the first time we've DTD this cycle and DH goes away tomorrow, so I'm keeping his swimmers in as long as I possibly can!

Am I mad to hope I can catch with the one time we DTD this cycle?

Come on baba get in my belly!!

@mrsof20118 huge congrats. Fingers crossed it's as sticky as they come!

@Crossfitgirl I love how I don't even know you but I can picture you exactly hahah. Iv been there 😂 you know what how perfect would that be if you have made a bubba?!!! Everything crossed for you honey. Remember it only takes one time!! ❣️

@crossfitgirl Yes! You get that egg! Would be amazing if you caught it this month in your new house with a totally fresh new start

@mrsof20118 CONGRATULATIONS! That is fantastic news!! So happy for you!!

@Crossfitgirl Well done on the house move, and I love that you have christened the house already. Sets the right tone! Really hope that it does the job as that would be perfect if you conceived on your first night in the house!

@DayDreamer1707 we tried but DH couldn't finish, too much pressure plus the having to keep quiet thing didn't help. They have just left so he is off to have a shower and I might give it another go when he is out.
So frustrating though when I really wanted to make sure we cover all bases this cycle. If not hopefully yesterday's bd will do the job.

My temp has gone up to 36.41 when my cover line is 36.30. Normally post ov temps are around 36.50 so I am not sure whether it is too late now? What do you reckon?

@mrsof20118 congrats!!! Try not to worry yourself (I know it's easier said than done) try and enjoy every second of it xxx

Omg @Crossfitgirl I can imagine you too 😂😂 I don't think you're crazy at all, and perfect timing if you're ov! Fx x

@FlapJackered 0.1 degrees isn't that big of a difference, could be ovulation, could simply be something else like less sleep, and the egg lives up to 24 hours. So BD!

@Crossfitgirl great to hear everything went well with the move. Conceiving with the the first BD in the new house would be quite a story to tell your child 😏

@mrsof20118 congratulations!

Hi ladies, I would like to join the thread please! I have been the reading the threads on and off, but never posted, too shy haha!
I was lucky enough to fall pregnant in September after three cycles of trying, but unfortunately found out 2 weeks ago I had a MMC. I had medical management last monday and trying my best to stay postitive about the future. We won’t be waiting for my next period, we are just going to go straight for it and hoping my body won’t take too long to get back to normal.
I had regular cycles before getting pregnant so hoping for the same again! We’re so desperate for a baby, but will try not to put too much pressure on ourselves!
You all seem like such a lovely bunch, looking forward to joining you all on our journeys 😃

Welcome @PurrMaid sorry about your mc, fingers crossed your cycle gets back to normal straight away.

@Crossfitgirl congrats on the move and christening the new house 😂 great start to your new chapter together!

I’m around 9dpo now, still no sore boobs which is weird, usually they’re hurting from around 6 or 7dpo to af starting.
How is everyone doing today?

@crossfitgirl, I love it! Fingers crossed the legs in air tactic has worked :) And so glad to hear the move went well :) Do you have a designated Christmas tree spot yet?!

@mrsof20118, congratulations to you hun :) Sending positive vibes your way! Xx

@Purrmaid, welcome to the most hectic thread on here! There's no such thing as tmi on here and some of these ladies are absolute fountains of knowledge! It's ace :)

We're having a quiet day as dh is a TAD delicate after his night on the town! He got on the wrong train home and had to get a taxi So he's on red dead redemption... good job I'm in the tww not my fw. It really sucks him in... He's bonding with his horse as I type!! I said 'oooo it's like being there!' and got a funny look!

@KatBeCool I took your advice and we Dtd! Also had a frank conversation about both of us needing to make more effort to make sure sex is less clinical at ov time.
Hoping I get my temp rise tomorrow morning as not sure I can face another day of sex! Soooo tiredddd! 😩

@PurrMaid Welcome! Sorry to hear about your MC. Good luck with the next cycle 🤞🏻this is a great place for advice and to have a rant when needed.

Thanks @sullywifey, @sophiepie @flapjackered @cupcakesandglitter @katbecool yes it would just be perfect!
@stormtrooperjulian when are you due AF? Different symptoms sounds promising!
@fivexfive we do have a designated spot!! And on the 1st December it's going up!! Haha hoping the legs in the air worked too! When's yours going up? (The tree not your legs!)
@flapjackered how did the conversation go? How do you plan to make it less clinical? It's hard isn't it when it's planned.
Congratulations @mrsof20118 that's fab news!! Hoping it's a sticky bean for you, crossing all my fingers and toes :-) xxx

DH and I have had an argument now, he's being a right arsehole 😡 can't bloody wait for him to fuck off to work away next week! Glad DTD is over as that's all he will be getting now this cycle anyway!

@crossfitgirl, oh no! Sorry to hear you've had a row, at least you had your way with him beforehand though!

And yes, our tree is also going up on 1st in a designated spot :) So excited!

So far we've decided NOT to do a test in the week. Instead I'll just assume af will come while I'm away at the weekend and if not we can test when I get home Mon night. Obviously there's the possibility I'll crack before Fri but hopefully not!

On a lighter note, while dh has been on the PlayStation (for sodding HOURS!!) I have been amusing myself...

Just be clear, amusing myself by taking ridiculous pics of our cat :)

@fivexfive 😂😂😂 thanks for the clarification there! Haha!
Xxx

@FivexFive love this!!!! Xxx

@FivexFive 😂 😂

@Crossfitgirl sorry you had an argument with your DH, what was it about? Good news it's not fertile week as I hate it when that happens and you need to have sex but can't stand the thought of it!
We just spoke about trying to be better at warming each other up, like today we did naked massages with oil. The sex was actually sooo much better too, I would recommend it!

Hey am I ovulating ? Is the test positive cd 10 today first cycle after provera to try kickstart my cycle

@flapjackered he wanted to leave his 3 huge cases of tools in the middle of the living room for the sole reason to remind him to sort through them... despite the fact he is working away all next week so won't even be here to do it until the weekend! I asked him to put them in the spare room til the weekend and he refused, he told me to move them myself, but they are too heavy for me to carry up. I even said I'd remind him to do it next weekend if he just put them away! It's more annoying as for the past year (or more!), they've sat in the hallway in the way, and he knows how much I hated it and was so looking forward to NOT having to look at them all the bloody time now we have a bigger house! Anyway I got over it, then later he was talking to me and he decided I must still be in a mood because of my "tone of voice" when I replied... which is total rubbish as I wasn't even in a mood any more and my tone was totally normal!! Anyway. It's totally petty but he's just being really difficult now and doing stuff he knows will annoy me and arguing about where to put everything else. Stupid men!!

When he's redeemed himself, I will def try the naked massage though! That sounds amazing! Didn't you get oil all over though when you went on to DTD? Haha!

Hi robync19 yes that's definitely a positive, so you'll be ovulating in the next 24-48 hours. Xx

@Flapjackered, naked massages are the way forward! Although, yes @crossfitgirl, we went a little ott with the oil first time. Twas messy! Ah well :) Your dh sounds similar to mine in terms of putting stuff away. Each time we've moved (3) the FIRST thing he did was set up the stereo... Priorities

@Delilah7, how you doing hun?? Xx

@FivexFive hey girl! I'm ok. Having some more blood to check HCG levels are increasing so bloody nervous! Then scan not this week, the week after as well as midwife appointment. Feels weird though as haven't taken a test since the first one when I found out, yet still worry am I still pregnant?! X

@delilah7, it's understandable hun xx Sounds like things are moving along nicely and they're keeping an eye on you both which is good. Glad you're still on here, wouldn't feel the same without you :)

@FivexFive I have to be apart of this! I feel weird not writing a lot but I don't know what to say! Xxx

@FivexFive love the cat pic 😂

@Crossfitgirlmy husbands tools are the Bain or my life. Literally want to move just so I don't have to look at them anymore. The amount of arguments we have had over them 😂 so I feel ya!

I came down with horrible cough/flu last night and had to entertain the parents for dinner today, safe to say I'm tired!! Having a hot bath, then watching I'm a Celeb I'm bed!!

@PurrMaid welcome sweets xx

Hope you all had lovely weekend xx
