mensa even... clearly I am a reject as well.

theboob · 08/01/2009 09:46

morning all

well i ordered some tests from ebay,but now i will have to learn to control myself

i have never charted while i ttc so I'm not even sure when my 2ww will be ,i just wait till i think is right then test lol

i still cant get back into my routine and getting to sleep at about 2.30am but still have to get up early I'm shattered

hope your all well and not to cold in this horrible weather

eeyore2 · 08/01/2009 11:35

Hi waiting, I don't know about the boy/girl thing but on your OPK question I prefer the digital ones (Clearblue) even though they are more expensive. Just because I prefer a clear display rather than squinting at two similar lines and driving yourself mad about whether it's positive or negative. It is definitely more expensive though.

MensaReject · 08/01/2009 13:57

Girlwithacurl - it's easy for me as i only have to squirt it in with the syringe whilst dp gets to enjoy himself for a few minutes actually to be fair to him, hes finding it quite difficult to perform on demand, especially as he struggles anyway. Its so frustrating when it doesn't happen, he blames himself and i try to reassure him but it just adds more pressure. He wants this so much (previous dc are my exhs) his sperm test came back normal so hopefully sometime soon we'll have a bfp

idreamofbeanie · 08/01/2009 17:24

Hi all and welcome to the newcomers,

moss - sorry AF arrived, fingers crossed this will be your month.

Well I have been trying out the ovulation sticks this month - got a faint positive test line, lighter than control on Mon-Wed (CD12 - 14) then a definite dark positive test line today. I think that means I should ovulate tomorrow, CD16 - is that right??? DP is working away tonight but we BD'd this morning and we will BD tomorrow night then its the rotten 2ww.

I also do the lying around in bed thing after we BD (DP thinks he is such a stud I need that long to recover ). I haven't gone as far as trying headstands afterwards but if this takes a few months who knows . I lay on my left side after so if I get lucky this month we can see if the beanie is a boy (a boy would also fit the orgasm theory - sorry TMI . Maybe DP is right about being a stud )

theboob · 08/01/2009 18:33

hi all

well today I am so bloated ,either that or a have put on loads of weight since xmas

hope you are all well,i must get off here to revise for my human phys exam in the morning,and try to fit in BD

take care

DevilsAdvocaat · 08/01/2009 20:21

what if you orgasm before and after he does?!

we bd yesterday and planning to tomorrow which will be day 8 i think.

tmi alert:

dh and i don't use any contraception usually so it was nice to have him, ahem, finish inside maybe will rethink the contraception thing after this one.

TrixieVix · 08/01/2009 20:49

Just wanted to quickly update you all - I WANNA BABY!!!!

Still nothing - no AF, no +ve. Grrr - what's going on?!

Have started to give temping a go....first day today - not quite sure what I should be doing or not doing, but I'll muddle on through

StealthPo09IsHere · 08/01/2009 20:54

hi everyone
didn't realise there were people as obsessed as me! Is nice to be among people who think about the same things

Mumto2littleangels · 08/01/2009 21:02

Ok. Well Hi to everyone on here. I think I am joining in the right thread!

We have literally just decided to ttc another baby. Am so not in tune with my body but according to fertility friend my possible fertile days were Sunday, Monday, Tuesday just gone and we only started bd'ing yesterday (sorry TMI!). Altho only using fertility friend as a guide so if we continuing bd'ing do we still have a chance this month.

Sorry am at what I just wrote but advice please.

Thank you everyone.

earlynite · 08/01/2009 21:19

Hi everyone, According to fertility friend i am at my most fertile right now! However, I doubt I will be BDing tonight coz my DS has thrownup all over his bed and is now sleeping peacefully in ours!

Mumto2littleangels · 08/01/2009 21:27

Oh earlynite, sorry to hear ure bed is occupied. Hope u manage to get some bd'ing in at some point. Grrr at children that appear in our beds. Our dd turns up in our bed in the early hours so dh and I have some time to ourselves when we first go to bed!!!

earlynite · 08/01/2009 21:37

mumto2 young children are a great contraceptive arent they?

Mumto2littleangels · 08/01/2009 21:42

Lol, I know. I haven't had any trouble concieving before and for some reason I am paranoid that this time, its not going to happen. Don't know why and shouldn't get myself hung up over it as we have only just started trying.

However, our dd is not helping, lol!

earlynite · 08/01/2009 21:47

We didn't TTC 1st time. DS was an accident He is 5.5 now and I reeeaaaalllly want another so all this date watching is new to me. 1st month of trying so trying not to get too obssessed.

Mumto2littleangels · 08/01/2009 21:49

Oh well, we can make sure that we both don't get too obsessed! Am off to bed now before I get kicked out by dd!

Will keep up eith thread and keep fingers crossed for all ttc.

RubyBuckleberry · 08/01/2009 21:57

Hi everyone, can I join - I had a very clear BFP last month after testing two days early - and then AF arrived bang on time boo!! We were so excited and then poof it was gone...

Anyway, trying again so

ttc#1 cycle 4 CD 14

We are not temping or anything just BDing lots

StealthPo09IsHere · 08/01/2009 22:06

sainsburty's own brand tests?

Good luck for this month

MensaReject · 08/01/2009 22:31

Does anyone know if we have less chance than 'normal' because we self inseminate? I always lie with my hips up afterwards but it can't really be as successful as the traditional method can it

theboob · 08/01/2009 23:46

i dont know about that myself MR but i have friends who are in a same sex marriage and she has just got her BFP first month after insemination with a doner.....so it does work

i have had cramps all evening dont know whats going on but its annoying,well BD again tonight as FF says so,but not temping just checking CM? and i dont know if thats right ,not really sure how long my cycle is as i really dont pay attension and implanon messed it all up anyway....do you think i would be best to test on CD 28? i really have no clue and know as soon as these tests arrive i will be a nightmare

take care all and happy ttc

PavlovtheCat · 09/01/2009 00:50

Thanks for adding me to the list bubble and hello to all! and good luck everyone ttc this month!

MensaReject · 09/01/2009 07:54

Thanks theboob thats good to hear, gives me a bit of hope I have so many questions - its not like you can ask them face to face to people lol, does anyone else find sex hurts during or just after ovulation? The last week or so has been tender inside just where my pubic bone would be (i think) and has generally been slightly uncomfortable. I've been trying to check cm but i don't seem to have much which is probably due to the Clomid. Hows everyone else doing?

bubblebell1 · 09/01/2009 08:23

morning all! feeling a bit annoyed with my body, had that weak line on ov test and then nothing since, can't tell if i've ovualted or not - think this month is going to be a bit of a lottery!!

BUT... am quite excited to see who graduates this month - so who's the first to test then? and when can we start crossing fingers for them??
