@Vil10 I don't really have cramps as such they're more like an annoying uncomfortable sensitive/ sore feeling in that region. Not sure what's going on 😬x

@Newbie0818 now I need to know if you can give a BJ without horrendous gag reflex?!! Gosh can't believe I'm more adventurous than ppl I thought I'd not had that much stuff! I bet @Skip86 the sexy Aussie porn star can give a great blow job and do you see how she asked us the question about food but never put her most adventurous food?? I went to Australia but never ate crocodile or kangaroo! 🤔

oooo actually I've eaten frogs legs & snails. Urgh. Don't recommend it.

@Vil10 how's the biscuits and brew gone down? You aren't out lovely, we have high hopes (like your cervix 😝)

@BellsB1 heyyyyyy! You are back! Don't worry there's a warm seat for you, it may have a sticky wet patch on it though you might need to wiggle around. Some of us are still learning how not to leave wet patches. Soz 😋

@Juno231 OMG yes what colour is the sofa??

@lucyrp shit your nephew again? Is he ok?

@Newbie0818 good he's being seen to first! Once you start getting the tests done you feel instantly better cos you're closer to potential answers and also reassurance!
@Juno231 glad you had a good day 😘
@lucyrp oh no Lucy! Doesn't sound good at all. Hope he recovers soon!
@Vil10 yeah that's great. You got a good one there!

@Minster2012 yeah again, poor thing same thing happened again. Had his morning medicine. Went back to bed, then woke up to go to the loo and is really quiet so not to wake anyone obviously had a fit and split his head open on the toilet. They found him lay in the bathroom again but had crawled towards the stairs and shouted his nan not sure how long he'd been there. Few stitches and he was let out again. Problem is because of covid he's started some medication and he's just been given it. Not seen a doctor to talk to about it or anything. No idea what it's doing etc.

@notyetamumbuttrying thanks he's fine, tough cookie

@lucyrp hopefully it's a good sign!! Ohhh bless him!! I'm glad he's okay though!

@Minster2012 they were lovely, just finished them whilst watching the greatest showman but I'm crying at that now😂 but I love the film!! Hahahaha high like my cervix😂

@notyetamumbuttrying he's even washed up twice today!! Which is a rarity😂

@lucyrp I use the Apple Watch to track my RHR. I also use the health app on my iPhone. Make sure your clicking on......show all health data...... then scroll down to nearly the bottom, & you've got your resting heart rate.

@Vil10 you're chart looks really promising 🤞🏻

@Skip86 so sorry to hear what happened to you. It will happen soon for you 💕 my god you deserve it!

@Minster2012 absolutely fucking gutted for you for your BFN. Let's hope this last embryo is the one🥰 you are just amazing the strength you have after all the shit life has thrown at you.i bloody admire you. You're superwoman in my eyes! 💐 these buses just wouldn't be the same without you, & I know all these ladies on here would agree😉

Hi to all the new ladies👋🏼 enjoy the ride with us & share your stories about everything, beca nothing is off limits with this lot!🤣

@Minster2012 haha well I've never had a disaster in the bj dept to date so that's good! For me it's mainly texture and smell that sets it off and means I can't swallow, neither of which a bj affects for me luckily 😂😂

@notyetamumbuttrying definately! I'm at a stage now where I've lost hope of any natural conception and it's awful because you just feel restless and helpless. Hopefully the tests will start making me feel a bit more proactive 👍🏻

@Vil10 definately Sunday feeling, hate it!

@Minster2012 I love giving a good blowey! I'll even swallow for him so there's no mess🙈 #topgirlfriend 🤣🤣🤣 I gave him one last night. It's fertile week coming up soon so he won't be getting many BJ's then!!! I need to make sure they go in the right hole!!😉
My nickname was cloblows🙈🙉
You've definitely got to do the twisting action up & down with your hands while sucking, that's my OH's favourite! Jheez he'd bloody kill me if he knew I was writing this!

@Vil10 hopefully maybe 😂 yeah he's fine xx

@Chlo2701 ooo thanks been struggling for ages to find a proper graph just kept finding the stupid dash line ones 😂

That's interesting finding my rhr graph, here it is compared to my bbt one. Very similar ?!

@lucyrp this is what my RHR looks like this month from my Apple Watch. Does your screen look like this?

Would help if I attached the bloody pic🤦‍♀️

@Chlo2701 yess I've just attached mine below !

Yep you got it hun 😊 I notice that on the day I ovulate I dip down. To around 53bpm, then shoots up the next day.
I find it really interesting. The month I got my BFP it showed ovulation (also confirmed with CBD) then showed an implantation dip at 6&7DPO then it just carried on rising. When I started bleeding it then dropped right down into the 50's again, like it does when AF comes.
There is definitely a lot of similarities between RHR & BBT

@Chlo2701 I've got quite a high rhr anyway I must be un fit 🤣🤣 I had a dip at 4dpo and 7dpo but since then it's carried on rising 🤷🏼‍♀️🙈 I have no idea what's going on with my cycle

@lucyrp here's the month I got my BFP.
Orange is my ovulation
Green is implantation dip 6/7DPO
Purple is where I'm 9DPO & tested positive that day, then you can see my RHR carries on rising.

The 2nd pic is obviously the tests, but lines were so strong for 9DPO! So just goes to show just because I got a strong line unfortunately it doesn't mean a sticky bean🙄

@Chlo2701 what do you think to my chart ?? Yours looks so pretty! So sorry it didn't stick for you 😔

@lucyrp oooh dip at 7DPO & still rising, that's good. Let's hope it continues to rise for you hun & you get that longed for BFP🤞🏻😬 keep me posted! The first thing I used to do in the morning on my TWW was check my RHR🙈 it gets obsessive trust me🙉

For some reason I can't click in an out of replies so apologies in advance for everything I miss!

@Minster2012 thanks for reassurance on drinking! I've been thinking all along that I'd see how things go and if I feel TTC not working I'd cut out the wine to see but I feel I'm ok for now. Like you said, at the year mark we'll see how I feel!! You really have had to face the toughest conversations but your attitude is fantastic!

Mother dearest doesn't drink so always feel she's a bit disapproving of it. But I am 30, married since December and it would be her first grandchild which she's been begging for with years so I understand her frustrations!!

@Skip86 What a tough situation to be in. I do think that he is just nervous for you as much as anything. Obviously he's concerned for himself too but it is awful for men when they feel so powerless watching the ladies go through all the really tough crap. I would hope he'd be thrilled if you did get your BFP this month x

@Juno231 thank you! CD6 today and AF due 9th November I think! Sounds like you had a lovely day, both the shipping and the walk! Perfect balance!!

@Vil10 feeling so hopeful for you this month!! And your OH sounds so fab, what a dote!

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend (or as good as possible!) We're looking at more restrictions in Ireland being announced tomorrow but I've actually enjoyed all the time at home with DH during all of this!! He's been mostly WFH since March and used to be training 4/5 times a week but can't now so it's nice having him here and even helping more with housework!!

@Franklydear @minster2012 I won! Although weirdly by the time all the swatches came in OH whittled it down and selected the one I'd picked two weeks ago 🙄. Think a neutral linen type affair - so that I can go bold with the wall colours and soft furnishings instead!

@lucyrp it all looks promising to me! Fingers crossed 🤞

@Chlo2701 it's stayed high today so I'm hoping it does tomorrow too but I have cramps😩

@lucyrp your rhr is similar to mine!! Dip at ovulation then dip at 6/7dpo, hoping for both of us it's an implantation dip, then rising since!

@RecordPlayer Thankyou!! I'm in 2 minds! He is a star, little secret, before we got together he wasn't bothered about having children, but since meeting me he's changed his lifestyle and outlook massively, and now cannot wait to be a dad! He's a bit older so all his friends are either engaged, married or have more than 1 child, so I think he's definitely feeling left out!

Interpretation, please ladies, I have cramps but more like ovulation cramps than af cramps, am I going completely mad? Is this full circle?
@Juno231 I like that choice, so the colour theme can be changed, I can never stick with anything for long,

@Chlo2701 yaaay finally something looking right, I'm not even worried about a BFP just hoping my body is doing as its supposed to. A BFP would be amazing tho 😍🤞🏼 now I know where to find the chart il be checking all the time too !

@Juno231 ooo really 😁 thanks 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@Vil10 yessss plz let this be our month! 🥰

@lucyrp oh god poor thing, could they get a wrist pull alarm for him like older ppl have? For him to alert them maybe? So pleased he's ok ❤️

@Vil10 I bloody want biscuits now. small disagreement with DH leaves me feeling sorry for myself your OH sounds fab and totally with you on the TTC malarkey

Awwww @Chlo2701 thank you, I'm just hoping the last embryo is meant to be. I'm determined to stay positive & must not eat all the biscuits & drink all the wine 😬😝

Phew @Newbie0818 I bet your OH is pleased his BJ is Safe 😂, you gotta take @Chlo2701's advice with the twisting, does anyone spit nowadays? Is that still a thing? Urgh, I'm writing notes here from CloBlows so I can get back on good books 😝#anythinggoes

@RecordPlayer I think your approach all sounds very reasonable. There are so many ladies who have many different lifestyles, diets, are different sizes, shapes, addictions too that get pregnant so until it's an issue then I wouldn't worry. 🙌🏻god if that cross for clicking in and out of replies didn't work I'd be lost now!

@Juno231 love the sound of the sofa, we have a similar dark grey one are you feeling like a weight lifted now decisions made?

@Minster2012 that's what I suggested, one of those alarms you have around your neck or whatever. He is 11 but is ok the autistic spectrum so is still very young. He's been told he has to have someone with him ag all times when going to the loo too and when he wakes in the morning must wake someone else too. Bless him was just getting happy with waking up by himself and turning the tv on to watch cartoons
