LOL, I might have to try that. The whole of his side of the bed is empty. It seems such a waste.

What lines Tink? Still have more to learn on temping, am only up to lesson 10 or something on their emails!

Hooray for the high temp though, it is looking pretty good

Right, got lunch and DS2 to sort out, still need to do my hair, DS1 has only had a shower and is still eating his cereal, typical Monday morning here!

LOL at you lot being squeamish.
You don't have to swallow, but you do have to let them come in, it's good etiquette

You lot would go mental if at the crucial point of GOF he pulled out and refused to come inside wouldn't you?

It's full of vitamins & minerals you know. NJ what do you mean by "bj duty"? I'm intrigued!

Sympathy for those with bad backs, not any fun is it?

Tink have replied on the temping thread. Take temp tomorrow as well, then give up i say.

Morning girls,

Just a quick post before I go to work. Thanks for the advice NJ re: AF. She arrived this morning! That is 12 days exactly since I saw the EWCM, so not sure if that is a good LP or not.....Anyhoo, I'm glad the 71 day cycle is at an end [even though it hurts now..]

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 08:28

hi cosmo glad that you have an answer
hope that pains go soon

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 08:29

Hi Cosmo,

I'm glad your AF has arrived. At least you know where you are now. Hopefully your next cycle wont be as long.

CosmogirlIsStillWaiting · 28/04/2008 08:29

Thanks Tink - have to say I am relieved that everything seems to be working as it should now.

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 08:29

not necessarily tink it would depend on your Dh's sperm quality. I had sex on a monday and O'd on a friday and got Dd, so perfectly feasible. Makes a girl more likely.

Argh!!! My cousin's girlfriend is expecting twins!! I had 1 friend have her twins last week and now someone else I know is having twins. So its back up to 4 people I know expecting twins.

I think I must attract twins or something, so beware Nat everyone!!

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 09:14

Oh I see Tink, I'd still keep up the GOF'ing for now, just incase.

LOL Squacky, I did let him once years ago, never again, it is quite possibly the worst thing I have ever had in my mouth. Besides I needed his sperm last night, so (OMG even I am blushing at this!) I gave him a BJ until the omnious tap on the shoulder happened, and then we GOF'ed...... 'tis getting warm in here!!! LOL BJ duty, it is one of the 'conditions' of the 'let's have another baby' contract, he want's a BJ every 3 months, I haven't told him that as soon as I am pregnant he can swing for it!! LOL And if you think I am bad, LL had a list of nearly 30 things to do for her DH! (Am shifting the blame nicely aren't I?!! )

Cosmo, really pleased your period has arrived, it means that next cycle, once you see the EWCM, you will know that period is due again in 12 days time (it may well be 11 or 13 days, but will be roughly the same) Obviously if you were TTC'ing that would be when you do the 1000th first test...!

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 09:16

Don't you want twins Nat?

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 09:16

Errrrrmmmmmmmm............................

NO

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 09:19

PMSL!!!

I would love twins but at the same time I wouldn't. My friend had hers naturally!!! They were 30 minutes apart. I don't know how she did it!! One of my other friends is only 27 weeks and has already booked an elective CS.

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 09:22

Oh yeah MIL has outdone herself this time. Look

NatalieJane · 28/04/2008 09:22

I think if I did get pregnant with twins I would try to go naturally, looking after two babies is more than enough with out recovery from surgery as well!

I really am going to stop talking to you now though, I already have a risk chance of having twins, without your bloody influence!

(I am in actual fact going to ring my mum!)

kayzisexpecting · 28/04/2008 09:26

Yeah I suppose so. I think I'd rather they were quite close together not like the twins I went to school with who where 18 hours apart.

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 09:27

i have ovulated nj glad i can relax now and gof whenever

excitedtinkerbell · 28/04/2008 09:34

sorry nj realised what you meant as it is good to gof few days after ovulation 2
