Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for and haven’t added the naughty girls at the back but you know who you are 😉

@Minster2012 he would just say "what are you doing you weirdo" 🙄😂

Ohhhh just mine that thinks that's the ultimate turn on then 😝

I'm just hanging round here, waiting for day 21now then I start taking northisterone again & have zoom call with IVF clinic...however I did receive my paperwork today...with costings & the first invoice for over £1600 to be paid in 5 working days. So the fun begins. They have included "surrogacy transfers/cycles" in their costing sheet now which is nice, I know we were their first but there's been 2 others go through there so guess it helps to sort costing

I'll just be trying to unmelt my credit card over here 🤦🏼‍♀️

I bloody love 'em and don't feel guilty eating them either! @LaceyMermaid
@Quercus3 yum aren't they! And lol to the Brazil nuts, so grim when not covered in chocolate!
@blodyn91 yeah they're quite lightweight for chocolate aren't they. I saw them on offer for a dual pack. Have managed to limit myself to 3 so far...
@lucyrp oh Lucy that's annoying for you. Mines like that sometimes too and I want to thump him 😂 just don't say you want it and he'll come crawling to you. Prance around in some skimpy clothes and then leave the room. Bend over in front of him etc but be all nonchalant about it. He'll prob know what you're trying to do but just pretend like you don't 😏

Hello,

I had taken a little break from here. Things have still been really difficult here and we are now on another short deployment.

We managed to dtd once, which according to my bbt tracking was either day after or day of ovulation.

Since last night I've had cramping and last night kept feeling wet, but there was nothing there. Today both before lunch and dinner, I was really hungry to the point of feeling sick. Which isn't like me, I can go days with not eating and not even a slight hunger feeing.

Today is 10dpo. AF is due on Friday. Currently gate crashing my parents holiday, so not even able to do a test until Saturday morning.

Oh wow @KateColx you are doing fantastic! Well done. Looking after yourself and less stress definitely can't do ttc any harm either 😉
@lucyrp it's irrational and unfair but I take it personally too if I get turned down yet I wouldn't expect OH to be offended 😬 glad the results are normal. How did you get on @notyetamumbuttrying? @SmileyT my thighs are already killing me from this mornings squats so that'll halt me a while anyway 😂

For anyone who is interested pic attached of onestep opks vs easy@home opks same urine sample 😲 i have been using onestep but wasn't happy with them so ordered easy@home but they didn't arrive on time so have been using onestep so far this cycle, cd14

@Minster2012 Oooh what's the latest with you lovely?! Have things started with the IVF treatment now? Sorry I've missed a lot! Xx

@lucyrp ah I feel for you! I'm the same and always take it personally when OH doesn't fancy it 😩 has he ever been like this before? Is he working more hours at work or anything? Sometimes OH is just shattered at night. X

Just to add there is a very faint line on the onestep, it doesn't seem to show in the photo

@katecolx go u, what diet u doing, I've just changed from slimming world to calorie counting and my fitness pal. I find too long on sw and it slows way down. So hoping the change will help.

@Katao thanks lovely 🥰 yes I think so! We're also not going to track ovulation on the next cycle to keep it more chilled, so hoping the relaxed approach helps. Wow that's a huge difference in the two tests?! Are you going to keep using both to see how they compare? I'd never even thought about there being a difference between those types x

I will definitely be finding out the sex of the baby we did last time with DS booked a gender scan at 16 weeks then also asked them at the 20 week scan to tell us (pretending we didn't already know) just to confirm 🤣 although tbf from ds scans at 16 weeks it was undeniable that he was a boy! X

In terms of names we have quite a few that we like for girls but finding boys names harder although I think we may have one we agree on x

@lucyrp glad your tests all came back okay 🎉 men are just stupid sometimes.....no other word for them (except maybe @Minster2012 favourite word occasionally) but most of the time....stupid 😩 x

@KateColx well done on losing 5lb that's great! X

@Minster2012 oooh exciting to get the ball rolling can't wait to hear when you get your BFP soon x

@Minster2012 he thinks it's so weird when I watch porn or play with myself 😂🤣 I also rang the doctors today to organise my cycle day 21 bloods for this cycle.

@notyetamumbuttrying mines never like this so it's very odd like he's always called "Mr fantastic fucking" 🙄 I've tried the whole skimpy knickers and matching bra but that wasn't a vibe and neither was bending over in front of him apparently. I have given up and I'm now so angry I don't even want it myself 😂

@Katao thank you, yeah so annoying. These bloody men eh

@2alreadywantanother thanks hun! I'm actually doing slimming world ☺️I know what you mean though, it does take a little longer but I enjoy the meals etc and I know it inside out now. My friend calorie counts and does so well! I think I just like the pasta and rice too much 🤪 x

@JustMouse sounds promising, and pretty good if you can't test anyway 🤞🏻🤞🏻all the luck. It def only takes once

@KateColx see below, we are now "on boarded" with IVF which means I'm waiting for day 21 to start northisterone again then get dates for scanning of womb lining and stuff then. Oh, and I just opened the first bill for £1635 😬😳

@Katao that's crazy 😳

@KateColx not that I can remember but maybe he has, and he's not working anhmore hours or anything so very odd x

@Cocoblue22 thank you although I'm hoping it's a good thing because they came back normal as if there is something wrong they're less likely to do anhmore tests for me. Men are idiots x

Oh @lucyrp it's ok to cry, I've gone to sleep loads before having a bit of a cry because feel rejected if he doesn't want sex. I think sometimes because I never reject his advances I feel more upset when he rejects mine!

Well I seem to be having a long cycle again so expecting ov around cd26. Said to DH that we weren't doing too well at the regular sex thing and he said he would rather just have a quickie before lunch 🤣 so we've roughly agreed for pre-lunch quickies Mon,wed,Fri each week lol, who cares about romance for a while 🤷🏼‍♀️

And @Juno231 we won't be finding out the sex, prefer a surprise!

@KateColx you can have rice and pasta when calorie counting!

@2alreadywantanother I'm on mfp as well! Lost 8lbs in April/May but it has stood still since then as I lost motivation again. Definitely works when I do it properly!

Oh god @lucyrp I best shut up then if you think watching porn & playing with yourself is weird...it's more for him than me but I quite like it. I'll just slink away over here 😬

Day 21 for us isn't for the bloods they gonna shut my ovaries down again so it's like I'm going backwards 😣

@Minster2012 oh no I like it! But he doesn't 🤣

@juno231 my problem is the few drinks lol 🍷🍷🍺🍺
I'm like yea I'll have one cause if I get preggers there will be no more lol

@JustMouse prob good you can't test early, be more conclusive on Saturday. Good luck!
@Katao booked in for first set of bloods mid aug and still waiting for my scan date. Hubs has gotta call himself for the SA so let's see how long that takes him! 🙄
OMG that difference in strips 😱
@lucyrp give it a couple days, he'll come round. Then you can really tease him by not giving in easily!
@Minster2012 very excited that you've started now! Wishing you so much luck! Hope you have Amex, get those avios points and air miles! 😏

@2alreadywantanother me toooo - we've gone through 5 bottles of wine since Thurs 🙊

@juno231 😂😂

Sorry ladies had a big catch up today! Can't believe so many of you are resting soon..eeek how exciting lots of bfps hopefully xxx

@lucyrp he's deffo on his period then isn't he!!

@Minster2012 first bill 😳 how many bills are there? Dont think its fair when its your own body that it costs so much!
@SarahTTC2020 we went for lots of quickies this cycle, in a weird way it felt less awkward. I knew when OH came home from work at 3, I had to seduce him then because he would be too tired at night as he was up at 4am. I acctually really enjoyed them, felt 21 again.

@lucyrp glad bloods are all good. I have also cried many times, hate rejection, and boys don't even realise it. Surely he cant say no to a BJ? Thats always my go to
