My dp is tired as well. Mind you so am I. But we are going to start doiking tonight if it kills me......

I used preeseed last month and have two sachets left so saving them for when I get my I didn't get one at 3 today so will have a natural doink tonight i think just to get into the mood...

My dh is going to the pub tonight, so will either be sound asleep when he gets in, or it will be drunken shagging. Lovely. Beer fumes really turn me on. [boak]

How does the thing work with mid month POAS then? Do you put the stick in a monitor thing and it tells you to go for it or not?

Happy, think I might have got some ewcm this morning, but possibly result of last night's activities.

Jeez, this thread really does make you shed your inhibitions fast, huh?

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 15:32

you wee on a stick that is in a case and if LH then it gives you a smile.... you then go for it for the next 48 hours.

hi ladies - its CD19 of a (usually) 31 day cycle. I have been GOFing since Friday (actually no, since day after AF went!) but DH went away tuesday morning and won't be back til Friday and I have period type pain (I'm assuming OV) today. If I am OVing today, will friday be too late for BD? I hope not!

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 16:48

Ah, well couldn't seem to find a turkey baster! Guess we'll have to give the egg whites a miss then. Unless someone else has a good idea on how to get them up there! So much for any pride I used to have!

Diege · 28/05/2008 16:53

Have surmised in a quick glance through that we are back on the filth Excellent work girls . I can report that I have tried the old egg-white thing when ttc dd3, and is was soooo messy!!! seemed to stick to everything and I remember there being loads on the carpet (twas a downstairs gof, like most of ours tend to be). Ordered pre-seed for the following month, but was actually pregant so never got to use it (and gave it away to a fellow ttc-er). Will be interested in reading LL's review - was it as revolting as it sounds?

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 16:57

So the egg whites worked then?!??! I can deal with a little bit a whole lot of messy if it works!

and forgive me for asking (and don't answer if you don't want to!) but how did you get them up there

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 16:59

Diege what review?

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 17:06

I think she means the preseed, as she never got to use it and you said you had.

Diege · 28/05/2008 17:08

LOL LL, you know!! Your review of what the pre-seed is like to use???
LBOX, yes I suppose it did work!!! Hadn't connected the two, but it could well have been that that did the trick! OK, re getting it up there, don't try and smear it over dh/dp's 'bits' what ever you do...it's more a case of getting a good fistful then transferring to fingers (two preferably)and shoving it up as best you can. A reclined position helps (ie, cushion jobby) but you will have to keep to man on top trad style to keep it in there. It's then ready to assist transportation of swimmers. One other tip, make sure you do get the eggs out of the fridge if that's where you keep them for at least 10 minutes before hand (it's all in the prep), and also that there's no yolk left after separating. Oh and your fanjo will also smell a bit like merangues after...any more questions??

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 17:15

I used the preseed last month. It comes in a squirty bottle type thing that you squirt up there. It does come out again about 10 mins after GOF so you need to keep your legs up at this stage. Didn't get pg with it though . I am going to use it this month but only have two left so am waiting for the right time...

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 17:18

Thanks for the detail, Diege! I feel super close to you now!

I was actually looking for a turkey baster in the shops as I thought it'd be less messy to do it that way...and then I came across a funnel I didn't buy either, but you can imagine what was going through my mind!

Diege · 28/05/2008 17:18

Mmmm interesting...are the bottle reusable? Just thinking you could refill with egg white??

Diege · 28/05/2008 17:20

No problem LBOX (I did have a little laugh at your 'you don't have to say if you don't want to')Like that was ever going to happen..

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 17:25

Dont think you could get it in there diege it is very thin neck as that is what goes up and then you squeeze the bottom bit that is full of the preseed.

I had never used a lube before so it was a bit weard for me.... DP liked it though... Made GOF a tad noisy as well

Squack · 28/05/2008 17:30

what about a water pistol?

kayzisexpecting · 28/05/2008 17:32

Evening,

You girls have made my day. I have had an awful afternoon at work but you lot have really cheered me up!! Been laughing my head off at the posts!!!

Thanks!!

lastboxoftampons · 28/05/2008 17:35

Glad you're amused, Kay but this is serious business!!!!

Squack I think we might need a super soaker!

Squack · 28/05/2008 17:35

or maybe a tampon tube? pour it in, then Dh can shove it up to the top.

I would imagine you'd want a good bath about 2hours afterwards.

Ooh Ooh here

btw just as aside this woman's 'symptoms' from days 1-4dpo are exactly the same as mine.

Squack · 28/05/2008 17:37

I do love these threads!

pmsl at super soaker

I have an image of you akimbo with your Dh across the room aiming rofl.

Diege · 28/05/2008 17:37

PMSL at waterpistol Ooh, would be a tad sado-masochist, no? LL, TBOX, what about a plastic syringe??? Pop into any chemist and they'll give you a free one (say it's for medicine, which it is in a way). Should be quite easy to suck up the egg white.
Glad we cheered you up Kay

Diege · 28/05/2008 17:39

Love the link SQUACK ...funny how they don't actually elaborate either on gettingthe stuff in there . And you are SO pregnant....when d'you test then????

kayzisexpecting · 28/05/2008 17:42

I really needed cheering up!!!

I'll keepmy fingers crossed for everyone.

lardylumps · 28/05/2008 17:42

wow if I dont get pg this month I am going to try that next month then. Much cheaper than the preseed I bought.

Squack I didn't get today.... But its good as the thermometer didn't arrive either so am hoping that it comes tomorrow and I get my smile tomorrow.

Squack · 28/05/2008 17:46

Thanks everyone, glad we cheered you up Kayz how are you feeling? Not long until you're in the second trimester, things will be much easier then I'm sure

Diege I do hope so. I do feel different, but it could be wishful thinking.
We'll see....4dpo today so I think a week on Friday is the earliest.
