hi babyin a corner I have two more days to test!! I am afraid to get the BFN! Since I still have no AF nor TTC symptoms! I am sure your weekend of passion will tie in nicely with ovulation!!! haha

bigbrofan how exciting to hear that the fortuneteller was so accurate!!! You never know, she might really see the future! (you should ask her about your ciber friends too)

babyinacorner · 09/07/2009 08:16

bigbrofan -went a week apart, so twice (pre ovulation) will do so again next cycle if no luck. Can't really afford to do it more than twice a month.

Shame you are so far away - would have really liked to see that fortuneteller!

bigbrofan · 09/07/2009 17:42

cool - i am going again in a few weeks too - so fingers crossed.... i think twice a month is plenty...you dont want to over stimulate yourself....

bigbrofan · 09/07/2009 17:45

cyncan good luck for testing - xxx

NewMember · 09/07/2009 19:27

Evening Ladies!

Ok so today is cycle day 23 for me - I have been praying so much that this would be my lucky month! The last 3 days I have had a slight brownish discharge and some twinges in my lower tummy - so, is this AF on way?

So disappointed but i will NOT get down about it - I will just look forward to trying again! This TTC has def brought us closer - which is lovely

Hope u r all ok

cyncan · 09/07/2009 20:46

Hi ladies!! What a day.. I have been so busy with work.... need a vacation!
bigbrofan thanks!! I will be testing on Saturday!!!! I am a bit nervous!!

But as newmember says, this has also brought me and my dh closer!!

newmember brownish discharge could be due to implantation.. have you tested!??!

hey ladies, just checking in. been out on a girls night out and just about to go to sleep (snoring hubbie next to me!).
hope a bean's been implanting newmember, and you cyncan - might you have a dual testing day so we can all have a group finger/toe-cross for you?
bigbro and baby - loving the sound of this reflexology. might have to look into that myself....
how are you engel? ok?
no af here yet, but is surely on its way. will probably be day 35 like last mth which is ridiculous when i usually have a 28-29 day cycle. what exactly does my body think it's doing?! it's most inconvenient!!

Trixel · 10/07/2009 00:02

oooh, i'll do today's update as it's midnight now!
hope you're all sleeping well - cept you cyncan, you're probably just having your tea!!

Good morning ladies!! You are all probably about to wake up! It is midnight here now. So I just wanted to pop in and wish all of you a great morning.

I have started to become very moody today...so I think AF is almost here I will still test on Saturday... so trixel please do cross your toes/fingers for newmember and myself!

xoxox!

engelbart · 10/07/2009 09:27

Hello everyone

Day 10 for me and got a high. DH will be getting some action tonight! Still off alcohol and caffeine so hoping this will improve my chances! The reflexology does sound good though I can't find anyone where I live that does it . Has anyone tried Zita West's pre-conception multivitamins. Apparently they really help. Lots of people on here say they took them and got a bfp really quick. May investigate further and post a link to her site....

Trixel- lets hope you're not having a longer than usual cycle, how annoying for you. Though you still sound very upbeat! Are you not tempted to to do another test?

Cyncan- only 1 more day until you test. Have everything crossed for you. Hopefully AF isn't on her way...

Newmember - how are you? Hope AF stays away for you too!

bigbro - has the monitor asked you for a stick yet? Keep meaning to ask, are you a big brother fan? (hence your nickname?) and are you watching it?

baby- have you got a high yet?

engelbart · 10/07/2009 09:30

Certainly not cheap...

cyncan · 10/07/2009 13:02

engel very about your high!! hope you have a great evening!

the m on my monitor started blinking today... no AF yet!

xoxox

cyncan · 10/07/2009 13:04

just a quick check... are you all already taking multivitamins w/ folic acid?

engelbart · 10/07/2009 16:14

I'm taking folic acid, nothing else though. May get the Zita West vitamins if haven't got the bfp in a couple of months...

NewMember · 10/07/2009 18:25

Hi Ladies ...

What a stunning day we have here in Scotland

I am doing ok today - still no AF for me - I keep thinking i have taken AF and run to the toilet - then nothing! Ouch!

I did do a test last night and it was a BFN so I will see what happens over the next few days - although I do believe this is not my lucky month!

Not letting myself get down about it tho

engelbart · 11/07/2009 08:44

Morning ladies! Have been up since the crack of dawn today- feel like I've been up for hours!

Have updated the list. Another high day for me. I seem to have a textbook cycle at the morning, ovulation on day 14 and af on day 28/29. Machine isn't really telling me anything new though I suppose its confirming that I am ovulating etc.

Cyncan- have you tested yet hope its a bfp if you have.
And what about you trixel?

textbook cycle at the moment not morning. Knew I was up too early!

Trixel · 11/07/2009 11:28

morning girls! af got me with a vengeance yesterday - don't know why my cycle's become so erratic and my period so heavy and painful. ah well, onwards and upwards!
got to dash, manic day - just wanted to report in. cyncan, any news?? engel, hope the high days are going well for you , [newmember], how's it going? any af, or another test? baby are you peaking?! and bigbro, have you poas yet? a few days til the bding starts in earnest?!

cyncan · 11/07/2009 13:37

BFN

engelbart · 11/07/2009 14:47

oh cyncan Has AF started or did you do a test?

Trixel- was really hoping this would be your month too.

Last month DH and I were 'at it' on every high day. That obviously didn't work so have decided to do every other day on high days to give the swimmers a chance to 're-populate'. So a quiet night in front of the telly tonight!

cyncan · 11/07/2009 16:12

did the test engel... no AF yet. I am sure it will get here any day now...

enjoy your quiet night! let those swimmers charge!! ;)

xoxo

NewMember · 11/07/2009 18:57

Sorry to hear about your BFN

I am still waiting for AF to arrive, still getting this brownish discharge (5/6 days now) AF should be here any min for me!

Trixel · 11/07/2009 20:52

oh cyncan, sorry about the bfn. are you getting period pains? might still be too early...
that discharge sounds interesting still newmember (is that the right word...hmmmmm...?) i'm hoping it might still be implantation. that's a long time to have it without af coming.
quiet night sounds good engel, then go at it with renewed vigour tomorrow!
we're just about to settle down with a takeaway and a bottle of wine (not doing the no alcohol thing in our house as yet!). have just finished decorating my mum's wedding cake - first time i've made a fruit cake let alone a wedding cake, but i'm quite pleased with myself. it actually looks good !

babyinacorner · 11/07/2009 22:08

Hi girls -back from my anniversary night away - managed to bd twice but still on a high on day 11 - damn was hoping it would have been a peak!

oh well- have a rest today then back in the saddle tomorrow

New member - that discharge sounds promising to me -I had 4 days of it presuming i had my period then it stopped - did a preg test and it was bfp! (not now - my last pregnancy)

cyncan - sorry bout the bfn

engelbart - im liking your thinking on the every other day on high days - it's the only way to give myself the energy to carry on let alone his swimmers!

trixel -sorry to hear af got you, what a witch

NewMember · 11/07/2009 22:12

Ouch I am praying and hoping I get a BFP in a few days - I really think AF will get me tho!

Time will tell Ladies ... I will NOT get down about it tho
