Hi Shazza, you asked me about the pill. I stopped taking it in early August this year. I had my first bleed after stopping the pill about 5 days after I stopped, which sent me into panic mode as my AFs had been so regular (not just to the day, but to the hour!) I completely obsessed that I might be bleeding willy nilly with no control at all - but that hasn't happened at all. I think it must have been a withdrawal bleed.

Within about a week of that, my mojo really got working and I couldn't stop thinking about sex. It's been two months now and I'm still like a dog on heat! I got beeped at yesterday because the lights turned green and I was fanticising about the guitar player in the band I saw on Monday night Note to self not to grin at the man beeping his horn behind my car when I realise what I've done next time this happens! And I've had simply unrepeatable thoughts about colleagues popping into my head at all times!

I've had two completely normal 28 day cycles now - each of them bob on, isn't that weird? I was expecting it to be much more chaotic than this, but my body seems to have adapted quite well and DH loves the new interest in sex, although he is finding it a little bit hard to keep up with me. We've swapped roles in this respect, but it won't do him any harm to know what it's like to feel badgered for a while.

Anyway, I'm having so much fun since I came off the pill, that I informed DH last night I'm never going back off it. We'll take as long as it takes to have enough children (I don't really know how many "enough" is, I'm hoping I'll know when I get there) and then he's having the snip. So there.

Excitable · 12/10/2007 16:58

PS Shazza - it looks like you are experiencing the hormonal agony of the 2ww. It drives all of us crazy - it's not just you! Just know that your hormones are going to turn you into a mad woman for the next week or two and that your brain will return, it is not lost forever.

Tee hee - look at me on cycle 3 - I sound like an old pro!!

spookykitty · 12/10/2007 17:07

muppet - poor you man flu is no excuse, I have a stinking cold and am still up for it so to speak (((hugs)))

excitable - you so make me giggle, I was a bit like that after I came off the pill to start with must be all those new surges of hormones, 4 years and two babies later seems to have calmed things down a bit.

debinaustria · 12/10/2007 18:44

Ladylush - have you propped up the top of the bed so that he isn't sleeping really flat.

Just a thought

Excitable · 12/10/2007 20:03

Welcome SpookyDooooooooooooo (not sure if that's enough oooo's or too many!)

Thanks for the baby dust, we're going through a bit of a dry spell!

Are you new to this thread? How long have you been ttc? Do you have children already? Tell us about yourself! It's great here, you can talk freely about really intimate personal details and no-one gets grossed out! Have you been lurking or did you jump straight in?

Emmsy · 12/10/2007 20:34

Hi girls, AF arrived at 6.30pm so I am now on Day 1, can someone please update the list so I'm not at the top anymore! Do you have to type the whole lot out or is there a way of doing it? Thanks!

excitable My DH always seems to want lots of sex the week before my "O" is due and I thoroughly enjoy it, but when I tell him that we need to B/D the few days before "O" he has frequently been unable to ejaculate so the sex goes on and on and on and he tries lots of different positions and he drips lots and lots of sweat on top of me, I start getting distressed because I usually am knackered or need to be somewhere or one of the kids have woken up and we usually have to finish without the end product IYSWIM? If I don't tell him that it's time to B/D then we either miss it or I have to seduce him and then he "suspects" then we have to go through the same s**t again!

Thanks for all your advice girls, I have to go and wake DH up now so he can use the computer before he goes on nights. all try and have a nice weekend xxxxxx

Excitable · 12/10/2007 20:45

Sorry AF got you Emmsy You're taking it much better than I did!! That must be because you're in the running now - hopefully you'll be on for a November BFP.

The lady at work who has just announced that she is pg, had a miscarriage about 2 months before she got pg.

Forgot to say I managed to add some pictures of me and DH, if anyone fancies a look...

pigleychez · 12/10/2007 21:18

Hi everyone,

Hope your all well and life is treating you fine.

Just been looking at excitable's photos, So funny putting faces to names.

Chez

ladylush · 13/10/2007 00:12

excitable - love the pics. You look like a music festival goddess

Debs - I used to prop up the mattress when ds was a baby. Maybe I should try it again.

Hi everyone else Blissed out tonight following a visit to my health club (sauna, jacuzzi and swim)

fairysnuff · 13/10/2007 00:31

I am at home nursing my anger at DH (see 2ww thread)
I wanna go to a nice place with a sauna and a jacuzzi. Nearest one to me must be at least 40miles away and really it is just the swimming pool so DD would be with me, cos I love to take her swimming
Although DH did say that we would go next week.
I will have to take a hard line with him and make him look after DD whilst I have some R&R (is that waht they call it? What does it stand for?)
I am so bad though, I could just cuddle DD all day, no-one gets a look in, then I complain cos I don't get time to do things
silly fairysnuff

ladylush · 13/10/2007 00:39

Fairysnuff - had to ask the same thing. It stands for Rest and Recuperation. I am the same as you, but you must grab time for yourself when you can. Ds is 3 and a half and I've only started doing it during the past 2 months! Feel much better for doing it and ds doesn't seem to be suffering. In fact he likes it when I say I am going to exercise - he starts "break dancing" (cue throw himself on the floor and flip his legs up - he can't really break dance bless him)

ladylush · 13/10/2007 00:40

Fairysnuff - maybe you could go to a health spa with some mates. One weekend would have you feeling on cloud 9 for weeks

Excitable · 13/10/2007 08:26

Poor Fairy I don't know a man that hasn't needed this particular lecture - it seems like it's just a matter of time before we all have to have that conversation. Stick to your guns, love, cos you is more than a babysitter for his DD. Tell him that she woke up in the night and cried for him! Mwah ha ha... (sorry feeling a bit evil this morning . Going to see my Mum and Dad today and it always brings out the rebel in me. I only see them about once every three or four months, so they think I'm still a teenager and it makes me act like one!)

Glad you liked the pics - it took ages pick out the right ones. Why is this stuff so stressful? I'm sure you'd like/dislike me just as much if I was pig ugly and covered in zits, cos you're all really generous types, but even so, they have to be right and they have to be cool.

Wish I was a festival goddess, ladylush - that would be much better than my current job. I wonder what the money's like...

Was I different to how you imagined me Chez? What did you imagine?

07mumstheword · 13/10/2007 09:25

Muppet My DH has got man flu but I have persuaded him to BD twice. Yesterday I started sore throat/sneezing. I just hope I've caught more from him than just a cold!!

fairysnuff Left msg on 2WW thread. I really feel for you it sounds unfair. Hope he makes it up to you.

Exitable I looked at pics before wondering what you looked like so it's a bit like after the horse has bolted so to speak. You look as much fun as you sound though

I'm feeling rough today, sore throat blah blah blah but you know how if you've done a really good work out at the gym and you come out feeling good about it well that's how I feel about BD'ing last night. It was hilarious between sneezes (both me & DH) but I just can't let a chance to become PG slip away.

Emmsy · 13/10/2007 09:33

morning girls! hope your all doing fine today? I like your pics excitable, Your jacket is fab I thought you would be very very young, but your not! Don't worry though cos I'm alot older
Thanks for updating the list for me you still haven't told me if it just has to be re-typed?
If anyone has seen the other thread I'm on (the liking cake thread) any thoughts on my "group B" comments??

digitalgirl · 13/10/2007 09:47

Emmsy · 13/10/2007 09:50

fairy I would be very angry if my DH did that to me, is this a one off or does he do it most weekends? I like 07MTW have a very insecure streak. My previous husband never used to go out drinking, but he went out one xmas and met someone else, we ended our relationship and I was badly hurt by it, I was so pleased to find he only lasted a few months with the dirty hussy!
Anyway my current husband only goes out once a blue moon, and is due to go to a works party on the 24th November, and I am secretly wooried out of my mind. I trust him, but I'm so insecure. (it doesn't help knowing that he also was once unfaithful to his previous "dead" partner, apparently he only did it because she had to!)
I just couldn't cope with a partner who went out often, I would be a complete wreck!

Emmsy · 13/10/2007 09:51

sory you got a BFN digitalgirlxxxx

Emmsy · 13/10/2007 09:51

oops! I meant SORRY

spookykitty · 13/10/2007 10:58

Morning ladies I am feeling very poorly and sorry for myself my sinuses are playing up and it feels like someone has stood on my face, have sore throat and head and generally shivers but have taken loads of painkillers so they should sort me out. Horrible rainy day here so don't think we will be going anywhere.

Really don't feel like BDing but it's CD10 already

I'm currently researching new cars, I think we will end up with a Focus CMAX or a Megane Scenic hardly glam but needs must (3 car seats in the back) I am being hopeful.

DG - so sorry about your BFN

Emmsy - sorry about your AF arriving but at least you can start to move up the list now. Re updating the list you just click copy then paste it into a new message and change what you want, then post a message as normal, if I can do it it must be easy!

excitable - great pics, you remind me of a girl I went to uni with a long time ago x

big hellos to everyone else and hope you are having a great Saturday xx

lulu1414 · 13/10/2007 14:51

Hello ladies- AF arrived this week, so I am off the list. I think I am going to take a break. Its been a year since my MMC and I don't think I can take anymore disappointment. Good luck to all of you.

abbevillemum · 13/10/2007 16:42

Lulu1414 - really sorry it didn't work out for you this time. Sometimes I think taking a break is exactly what the mind/body needs.

Spink · 13/10/2007 16:49

lulu - just wanted to give you a squeeze and wish you lots of luck when you decide it is time again.xxxx
