SHAG HIM NOW!!!!!! Kookykid

FMU is really only for HPT's and fertility monitors.

About 3pm is the optimal time for straightforward OPK's. If you got a this morning you may well be Ovulating today, Good Luck!

(lol at wise one, I wish!)

Squack · 28/05/2008 12:45

Enjoy NJ!

Mine are asking me to guess what they want for lunch
Cheeky sods imps!
I'll wait until Dd comes and ask me where her dinner is and then say oh I guessed you didn't want anything. Have fed the baby already so don't feel a bit guilty.

I will of course feed then regardless if they hold out til 2pm lol.

kookykid · 28/05/2008 12:45

We need an acronym list just for ttc threads! Sorry (bit dense) could you explain FMU and HPT?? Worked out GOF as I was doing it....!!
You ARE a wise one - everyone refers to you, you have lots of knowledge about all the stuff we need to know !

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 12:46

oh kooky how is dd now poor thing. I am very much like that with my dd.

Squack · 28/05/2008 12:47

GOF is obv good old fuck
HPT is home pregnancy test
OPK is ovulation preditor kit
FMU is first morning urine

I've often thought there should be a list just for the wagon!

is wagon code for sex

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 12:49

Squack I now see you in a white clock with a long white beard like geldoff in lord of the rings.... I bow down to the wise one.... he he he he.

Squack · 28/05/2008 12:49

Oh and we don't say BD (baby dance)
hun( short for honey)
or {{{{hug}}}} unless in extreme cases

Lastly there is no such thing as TMI (too much info), though you may have gathered that by now lol

Squack · 28/05/2008 12:50

Stay away from my ring!!

kookykid · 28/05/2008 12:52

Thanks for that squack! I figured the from your earlier thread !!!!!
This might be a bit tmi but d'you reckon olive oil is sperm friendly?????

LL, dd is fine - fast asleep upstairs. I don't think I would've minded so much if she'd been in the way/being a pain in the bum, but she was just standing there grinning away at him! Oh well, she's over it, so I guess I should be too!

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 12:53

PMSL.....

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 12:53

got to go and sort dd out but will be back later... buy for now...

kookykid · 28/05/2008 12:53

LOL squack!

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 12:54

xpost i wasn't laughing at your dd kooky but rather at squacks ring...

0898.......

Squack · 28/05/2008 13:02

I don't think it is sperm friendly KK, baby oil is a bit better, but a lot of TTc'ers seem to use Preseed.

My post further down has a link to UK stockists.

kookykid · 28/05/2008 13:08

Saw your link for Preseed, but not sure I can get it soon enough as smiley face appeared this morning!

Squack · 28/05/2008 13:14

Good point!

Have doggy sex, deeper penetration, and keep your bum in the air for a while.

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 13:14

KK I'm in same boat - little EWCM this month and about to ovulate! I did read that olive oil was sperm friendly. I mentioned raw egg whites here and on another thread, but people seem to think I have ten heads. I know it's gross, but don't know about you but gross went out the window for me a long time ago!

I ordered preseed last night and hoping it arrives in time for predicted ovulation tomorrow. Do you only get one day of smiley with OPKs? They do first class delivery and mine's already shipped, so fingers crossed it arrives tomorrow. Good luck!

Squack · 28/05/2008 13:17

Found this

Obv I haven't critically appraised it, but it makes for interesting reading.

Why aren't you two shagging?

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 13:22

Thanks for that Squack Am sitting here giggling at the fact that a lubricant-based infertility study was done by two people named Semmens and Semmens

We GOF'd unassisted last night and will do again tonight and tomorrow night - hopefully with some sort of preseed or possibley something from the fridge . My boss might get annoyed if we were right now

Squack · 28/05/2008 13:26

Just use the egg white, I would! Might wanna warm it up a bit though, straight out of the fridge could cryogenically freeze the poor guys

kookykid · 28/05/2008 13:31

I noticed that too, lastbox!
OK, baby oil it is then, as that seems least damaging to the little swimmers! Need something...! All this GOFing playing havoc with me fanjo! It hasn't seen so much action for ages (sorry TMI!).
Right you and me then lastbox... race ya!

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 13:39

Okay! Off to buy a turkey baster ! Thing is, I mentioned egg whites to DH last night and he didn't seem bothered at all? Just said 'you mean you can stick them up there??' But then kind of shrugged with his 'if that's what it takes' face on, which I have grown to love when applied to the subject of TTC!

KK Feeling very guineau pig like here! We'll have to report back for the good of the thread! Then forever more we'll be known as those two girls who stuck food up themselves and got BFPs!!!!!

Squack · 28/05/2008 13:48

People stick food up there for all sorts of reasons, yours is for one of the better ones imo

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 13:51

LOL! You're right Squack Hopefully it will be worth it.

happynappies · 28/05/2008 14:38

Afternoon everyone - still raining here! Dd asleep so just about to go and start cooking - fruit and veg box arrived this am, and need to work out what to do with fresh apricots!

Am CD7 today, no signs of CM let alone EWCM. My temperature has risen slightly (so fascinated by my fledgling FF chart) - no GOFing yet for me. DH is really tired/stressed from work, and is supposedly conserving his energy for the weekend. Anyone else have a tired dh/dp? Right - will get my pinny on and get cooking. Will check in later, hope everyone is ok!
