Thats gr8 news LT and Spink thats soooo funny I love it when we make our men suffer also!
Forgot to say welcome to sweetbean so Hello!

On totally non TTC note I just really need to have a little rant, My computer hasnt been working since 2pm today, boardband down arrgh!!! so have spent hours on the phone to be told there was a fault,just beofre 9 tonight this man sent me to my garage to get screw drivers to undo the front of my BT box and call me back in 10mins - ok so go to the garage get the screwdrivers down on my hands and knees just about to unscrew the bloodming box and low and behold what do I notice my puppy has got under the table in the corner and bitten through my connection cable thingie lucky I found another and DH phoned which held the phone line up till after 9pm when the man had gone home so wont call me and make me feel a complete fooooool
ok rant over thank you.

Waiting2Exhale · 05/09/2007 02:01

Quick catch up as have been away for a while.

Wow...Bramblina thats fantastic news....arrh am soooo happy for you. Great to see one of us finally getting a BFP.

SK... I, like everyone else hope things start to perk up for you over the next few days if they havn't done already.

Hi Sweetbean and Pigleychez.... welcome. I hope you don't have to be on this thread too long before getting a BFP soon (hopefully this month... :-)..).

Myself, am waiting for that big fat egg to leave the hatch so one of my DH's little boys can have a crack at her...hehheee

My DH, like many men no doubt believes he has the best swimmers Ireland has to offer and for some time had me convinced that there was a medal winning swimmer named JoJo in Ireland whom he named his little boys after.

Go JoJo is his luck chant during BD which makes us both laugh and lightens the how baby making mood.....just thought I'd share that with you'all

TheMuppetMuggle · 05/09/2007 08:33

LT - Glad you had good news yesterday.
Welcome SB

I still feel shattered, and its doing my head in!! It wouldn't be so bad if i'd had the BFP, but we'll see.

Not planning on doing alot today, just run through the house quickly, and then make my Pie!!

sweetkitty · 05/09/2007 09:29

Morning ladies I think I have made my decision, sod the money, career, sleep, stress levels, bigger house, bigger car etc I WANT A BABY AND I WANT ONE NOW!!!!!!!!!

Have yet to tell DP but I think he will be glad as last week I was telling him I was seriously considering leaving him. There is a certain aspect of his behaviour well let's face it addiction that he battles with and doesn't always win but 99% of the time he's one of the god guys and I'm certainly far from perfect.

Now to get that baby last twice I have got knocked up first month of trying in fact DD2 was once that month as DP was working away. Funny how we can use all th opks, charting, EWCM spotting going and yet it only takes the once.

W2E - pmsl at your swimmers story, with DD1 it too us 9 months to conceive I was of course blaming DP as I said above once with DD2 and one month of trying with DB3 now he thinks he's got supersperm!

josey - thats funny about the cable

pigley - best of luck yes this ttc drives s mad

big hello to everyone else, anyone abut to test?????

QueenofBleach · 05/09/2007 10:07

May I join in, we decided last month to go for number 2 we have a 20 month DD, it tokk us 6 months to conceive her and we would like a late Autumn, winter early speing baby for selfish reasons as we run a B&B and summer is our busiest time so we are on cycle number 1 have done a few months of recording AF and looked at ovulation charts so here goes. Good luck to everyone else

TheMuppetMuggle · 05/09/2007 10:09

QoB - welcome and lets hope sept is a good month for you to!!

looneytune · 05/09/2007 10:28

Just a quicky whilst I have 5 mins. Thanks to everyone who sent nice messages about my test results Also really pleased that I got a 2nd line on my Persona Test Stick yesterday so hoping the monitor will show ovulation soon. No EWCM since around CD9, that was just a one off and I'm confused as to how I'd get that if wasn't ovulating?? Anyway, that's another thread!! Dh is out tonight with work (never goes out) so he's under strict instructions to come straight to bed when he gets back and I'll be there waiting with legs open ready for him! ( TMI)

goingfor3 - I had an ERPC after my MC and was told 3 different things.....1) best to wait 3 months for body to get back to normal, 2) Wait til had first period, 3) No need to wait. I was so messed up after the MC (had wanted a baby for 13 years and was so pleased to get a BFP straight away but then that happened) that I couldn't cope with the idea of that happening again so we decided to go for the longest wait to be on the safe side. I don't think it actually mattered tbh.

pixie04 - soooooooooo pleased it finally arrived, at least you know now! Fingers crossed for a normal sized cycle and a BFP very soon!

Must go and put baby's bottle on so sorry if I've missed anyone and welcome to any newbies.

looneytune · 05/09/2007 10:29

Oh...I noticed the list has yesterday's CD's on so will try and come back later to correct

Soph73 · 05/09/2007 10:44

Don't know if thats the right CDs for everyone have moved Pixie down as KD and myself aren't moving just now just lurking at the top waiting for AF to arrive.

SK waves hiya to Soph I like to see graduates of the ttc coming back gives us hope would be so depressing if the list just kept getting bigger and bigger.

I think I have got EWCM today, definately got more this morning and the right consistency. Now DP and I haven't even had a cuddle since we fell out Friday so he will know somethings up if I jump on him. Might just be honest and say you bed now and you better not enjoy it!

TheMuppetMuggle · 05/09/2007 10:58

SK - I like that term Bed now and you better not enjoy it lol

I wish i had a reason to feel so tired, can't really blame all on Darcie even tho shes being a rite little madam grrr

looneytune · 05/09/2007 11:11

Dashing out to school but just noticed Pixie updated it correctly so just copied hers. So sorry if anyone else needs adding on but I really have to dash, just copy THIS list and add yourselves if needed ...

TheMuppetMuggle · 05/09/2007 11:47

How long is a normal cycle?

digitalgirl · 05/09/2007 11:57

Average is 28 days, but that is an average - and who's average?

I'm usually 30-31 days. But my last one was 37 days. I have now beaten my record, which annoyingly has coincided with my first cycle ttc! Obviously I'm hoping to be PG, but 5 bfns say otherwise...

sweetkitty · 05/09/2007 12:10

digitalgirl - don't know what to say is it stress keeping AF away I don't know how long you are supposed to leave it before seeing GP. My longest cycle has been 29 days so I have no idea.

muppet - I'm OK just working through a few things in my head I think that if I don't have a third baby it will always prey on my mind I believe I am meant to have 3 I feel that DD2 isn't my last and theres someone missing from around the table still. I know things aren't ideal for a new baby but when are they going to be? If a had a newborn in my arms would I ever regret it (now a stroppy toddlers a different matter )

Better go DDs are wrecking the house and my Dad is coming up today to sort my oven yea can't wait haven't had an oven for about 3 weeks and it's been hell.

TheMuppetMuggle · 05/09/2007 12:27

DG - i'm certainly not average

SK - glad your feeling a little better and thinking things through

goingfor3 · 05/09/2007 12:43

Bloomin clear digital opk is not working properly so I need to call them, looking at the stick on it's own I would say it's a positive though. My body does seem to be screaming out to me that I'm going to ov soon so hopefully I will be screaming I've got a bfp in a couple of weeks time!

goingfor3 · 05/09/2007 12:45

My cycle is usually between 23 and 26 days, I did used to be the average 28 days though.

josey · 05/09/2007 13:23

Pixi that is gr8 news you must feel alot better about things now.

DG could a long cycle be cause by you stopping contraception? I would make an appointment with the doc, AF bound to show up if she is hiding round the corner as soon as you put the phone down to the surgery!

SW know what you mean about #3

Welcome QB

Im a bit calmer today and told a little fib to the BT man when he called again this morning
Though DD has to go to hospital tomorrow for a small op on her mouth, DH was supposed to be home today and he has been delayed till Friday, bit nervous at taking her on my own.
Nevermind the longer Dh away just now the more likely he will be at home for when I need him lol!
