Trying to concieve 11 thread for October!! For us Unlucky ones on 10

[cp3]

CD 5!!! Here we go again, not that im sure i want to after the day ive had with the kids.

sweetheart - I'm sorry but I only just read that thread and although my sensible half told me to leave it alone I just couldn't help myself and had to post. Nasty, spiteful, thoughtless. I was shocked at the casual way it turned into a little playground mocking session. Poor you. I too am shocked at certain mumsnetters. Right behind you girl!

Glad the party was a success BeckiF, heres hoping you are pg not coming down with flu!

my 40 OV tests from medisave turned up today. CD21 today so waiting for AF then start the testing (I know I'm not pg as lots of symptoms - as usual!)

God bless medisave!! ordered 20 pg test last thurs/fri and have arrived today (what a service) now all i need to do is get pg.. I should have bough the OV test but thats me jumping the gun again!!!
beckif, I was thinking of you today good to hear from you.. Have that flu and its not nice!!! sitting in work with alot of cloths on to keep warm.. O there all having a good laugh at me here now!!!! Hope you have a lovely time on hols .....

BeckyF - Try the beechams for flu tablets - I had that bug last week (sods law on my 2 days off!!!!) They did the trick for me.

Minnie1 - lol I'd love to see your bosses face if you made that suggestion to him. I dread to think what my boss would say if he only knew how much he pays me to chat on MN!!!! Also thanks for your kind words re the christmas thing.

That also goes to Mrsflowerpot and krocket. This morning I felt like leaving and not coming back but today has shown me what I'd be missing out on if I let them get to me so thank you all so very much.

Mudda - good luck tonight - perhaps you should go for a walk or something - to stop the test talking to you from the draw!!!

Mudda - GOOD LUCK!
Minnie - LOL at your boss lightening your work load!
Mrs Flowerpot - I too have got my token AF Zit - but i still tested!!!!!
Mrs Wednesday - glad i am not the only one
Lipstick - Welcome!!!
Everyone else - hope you are all ok
Sweetheart - dont ever think of not coming back because of those malicious comments - You have come out of this with your head held HIGH

Blimey this thread moves fast - 182 posts before I even see it! CD 6 here, and I can't find my thermometer so I haven't been keeping my TCOYF chart yet this month. We're away the next two weekends and I'm hoping that will give us plenty of chances for productive BD'ing. Good luck everyone on this thread.

Hi all; CD28. Have had AF syptoms on and off - back ache and tummy cramps but not here yet. Suspect it will be due in a day or two though. Still not sure yet. At least next month I will have a rought idea how long my cycle is!

Sweetheart - sorry to bring that thread back to your attention this morning; didn't mean for it to upset you. Just wanted you to know that most of you support you on MN; not everyone coomes onto have a go at people. Hope you are feeling better now.

Hi Lipstickmum and welcome to the TTc threads; good luck.

Glad to hear your party went well Becki

Sorry about BFN runtus

i've been lurking for quite some time on these TTC posts and have never really joined in, apart from odd random question here and there, but as AF appearded today on CD29 and i am feeling surprisingly sad, i guess it means that i have progressed from "if it happens it happens" to really wanting to get pregnant!
turned to opk kits first time this month - had positive lines for 3 days running, and egg white CM, but temp rise didn't happen for another 6 days. this doesn't seem right to me?
anyway after 11 months of unprotected sex i'm beginning to get a bit worried!
on to the next month!

Hi ValleyGirl, you've been lurking a bit like me It's nice to be 'out of the closet' though! Sorry to hear AF arrived today. I am ttc my second, in the early months still, trying to be hopeful and not obsess, easier said than done. Am CD19, so soon I shall be beginning that real waiting part of the month.

Wow, this thread is expanding rapidly, taken forever to catch up - you guys don't half talk ! Hope you're all well and {{{hugs}}} all round x

Cobweb, was wandering what had happened to you, glad the Dr was helpful, hope you're feeling a bit more relaxed - very excited for you - keep us posted x

Welcome to Jeddah and Lipstickmum +++++*+

Hey Miaou, hows things on Muck? Weather still hopeless here. Shame about the helicopter - could have been fun x

{{{hugs}}} Minnie1 and BeckiF, hope you both feel brighter soon - take it easy and go for Sweetheart's cure all of Chocolate cake . BeckiF, spill the goss on your party, I think most of us are hopeless romantics and are dying to know the chat - glad it was a great party!

Runtus, sorry about your BFN x

Sweetheart, only just seen the thread from yesterday - ouch ! - hope you are ok and don't even think about disappearing on us, we think you're fab!

Mudda, check out medisave for cheap tests - medisave

Pamina3, I've replied to you on the tcc after mc thread - af was ten days late in the end and it was all very annoying. The optimist in me has bounced back just fine and am hopeful as ever for this cycle. Hope it all works out for you and that af doesn't keep you waiting much longer - might be worth re-testing just in case. LOL {{{hugs}}} x

Sorry this is such a long post, catch ya later x

Hi valleygirl, sorry about af, all the best for this coming cycle ++++++

hi valleygirl - welcome.

another of my friends has just phoned to tell me she's pg - very pleased for her but you know too

Late ovulation. Hi does anyone know if late ovulation affects conception? Just found out that I ovulate late in my cycle. Up to 5 days before my period is due. Any advice welcome. Thanks

DJR can't help although i think i ovulate twice a month, have read the link sweetheart suggested though.

Hi ladies just a quick question more clutching at straws really, DH cycles to work every day could that be stopping our chances of concieving????

I have been told that cycling/ getting sweaty etc increases your chances of conceiving a girl because it reduces your sperm count - i wouldnt think it would totally cause loss of fertility though

I have a dd and would like a ds next time, we are BDing tonight and dp has just cycled to the gym to get all sweaty!! Ah well, boy or girl, I don't mind

mm don't know about that theroy dh was really unfit before and we had dd but glad to know that does damage him anyway, good luck lipstickmumxx

Deejayrus - I think late ovulation may have implications, because it means a short luteal phase. Can't remember the details now, or what you can do about it, but I'll look it up in my Toni Weschler bible and get back to you - unless some other mumsnetter gets there first!

G'day girls, Wow this thread moves fast.
Welcome all new lerkers. Hope you have success soon.
Sorry to those who got af.
Sweetheart hope your feeling better.
BeckiF glad to hear that your party went well.
Hope i havent missed anyone.
Well you guys know how i said yesterday that i was having pains and i had done a ov test and it was -ive well i did another test last night b4 bed and it came up +ive so i WAS having ov pains (and i was only on CD9) never really had them like that b4 hopefully that means that the herbs are working. We bd Monday night and last night and dh said that the bding was more loving and this really is the month for us its meant to be! how sweet. I will be gutted if it doesn't happen this month. This ov test has come in really handy i would have never guessed that i would ov on CD9 so maybe that is where we have been going wrong.

Sorry we bd on sunday night dh was away on monday night and i ov on Tuesday and bd last night. it is Wednesday morning here. sorry if i confuessed anyone

Here i was thinking that my ov test was positive and it was inconclusive. I rang the company to find out a few things and asked why i would get a -ive in the morning and a +ive in the evening its because i would have eaten within 3 hrs of doing the test in the evening and the sugar levels would create a +ive. But i am still getting the pains??? Does anyone know what this would be??? i have never really felt ov pains b4 so i dont know how long they last for and if you get it leading up to oving?? Please could someone pls help me with this question iam very confused.

I feel like such an idiot.

Morning ladies - up bright and early this morning!!!

krocket - so sorry about the pg friend. I know you want to be happy for them but I totally understand the . My SIL and best friend and assistant at work are all preg and then theres little old me!!!!

Twiga + Hulababy, thanks for your mesages of support. I'm feeling much better today and have put that whole thing behind me. (Some bitching to girlie friends worked a treat last night) I'm hoping the incident won't change the way I use MN (well not too much anyway)

Welcome to Valleygirl, great to have another ttcer to bounce mad ideas off of.

Tania2 - not sure about the positive results but this really does sound like a good month for you. And you were right the other day. If you fall this month there will be a huge increse in the chinese medicine market. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
