TTC any which way DP CM BT OPK Grapefruit drinking ....

[C1NDY]

Hi All,

Hope you like our new home!

Hi All!!

Sorry for not being in contact. I was on hols.. but didn't think to tell you all as I assumed I would be able to log on at the hotel we were staying at. Well, I forgot my password to Mumsnet so couldn't be bothered to look it up on the laptop (which was at home!).

AF is due this Friday. Strange thing is that I have period pains last week for two days... very mild pains and have EWCM loads of it... but I think its just me wishing. Boobs feel bigger but they are not hurting. I may test today as it means I am within the 6 days of testing, might as well get myself out of my misery.

Glad you are well.

I have loads on at work... 82 emails to catch up on, so will pop back here later.

Take care
Love
Cindy

C1ndy - Great to see you back! The symptoms you have sound promising . Test test test, come back and let us know the result!

Did a first response, not pg... oh well roll on AF!

Sorry to hear that c1ndy, fingers crossed next month is your month...

Dalrymps Its strange, because I have little mild period pains and EWCM that thought may be I was pg... but did not test with first morning urine, so may do one again in the morning!! goush, am I addicted eh?! otherwise, it could be AF coming on as per normal as I was usually a 28 day cycle... so today would be the day I guess.

How are you? have the morning sickness (MS) kicked in yet?

Jools Howdy... how are you?

Hi Cindy - I hate those First Response tests as they are only effective up to six days before your period is ONE DAY LATE in a percentage of cases. It only takes conception to have been a little later than you thought for it all to be thrown off.

Early testing is the work of the devil If you are due on Friday, I'd test again on Wed with FMU - its not over yet

I'm fine thanks - still losing weight slowly and on tenterhooks after a "productive" weekend - 2WW starts now

Hi Ladies,

Just wanted to pop in and see how you're all doing! Congratulations to Dalryimps!

Quick update - 23 weeks today (time has just FLOWN!), still feeling nauseous from time to time, but seem to have actually started vomiting which is better than 24/7 nausea... I'm obviously not one of those people who bloom, but oh well... had the anomaly scan, all looks well and we found out it's a boy.

Still not feeling real, but I'm sure it will soon enough. Miss you all!

Babydust all around!

Jools I don't know why but I think I may be... but may be I am coming down with something?? What is FMU... fertility monitor unit.. sorry am quite dizzy at times!!

The 2WW, oh goush... what fun!! have you tested on the OPK sticks? I did that as last time it came back positive... I have no patience. Am loving being back to ttc again its a bummer when you are just waiting to start all over again!!

Had bad news my father-in-law had a mild heart attack yesterday, so am waiting for new today that he is okay. His in hospital and they are doing further tests.

Hope you are all well. Just a few of us left now, so lets see if we can clear the ttc table this month . Trust me Jools you won't be the last one turning the lights off!!!

There is still one place up for grabs, if I recall correctly?

Oh, and Cindy - have I still got the right to slap your fingers for testing early? If so, here it comes !

(Remember, I had a BFN on a Monday and a very faint BFP on the Wednesday that I was due!)

I brought the list over with only the ttc member on it, as the list is huge with BFP!! we will bring it over when the next person gets their bfp.

I updated mine for Friday -AF to arrive... Seems like its only 9 of us... I predict we will all be done by the end of July . Sending loads of lucky baby dust to all ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sorry about you Father in Law Cindy - I hope he is okay.

And cindy testing 6 days early is bad, you know it. that said I did the same today with a Boots test - and it was negative! I have bigger boobs but maybe I have put on weight. And am very wet down there. Nothing else though.

Hi broodzilla - great news.

And jools - hope you caught it this morning. Everything crossed for you.

Sorry to hear about you fil C1ndy, hope he's ok.

Well, if you feel pg then you very well might be! Don't rule it out yet, you did test rather early after all

Hope everyone else is ok.

Been to the docs to make my pg official today, she was an oppinionated old cow! Told me I was a 'glutten for punishment' and basically said it was a good job it took 7 months as they would have been too close together otherwise. Stupid woman, she kinda ruined it for me, oh well.

Hi all, have been in meetings all day and am going home shortly, so this is a quick one.

Have I think started to spot a little so think body is getting ready for AF ... I had a feeling that may be i was but hey it must have been my imagination. Any way I brought two first response tests from boots... they are on special offer... buy one get one free. They will be useful for next month. I am ready to go.. this will be my month.

Okay ladies will speak to you all soon tomorrow ...

Dalrymps Some doctors are never sensitive! take care
Cindy

Thanks for all the kind messages regarding my father-in-law he is still in hospital and they are doing more tests.

Well AF arrived, but I am so looking forward to ttc again this month... funny but I thought I might have hit the jackpot but hey another month and another chance.

I have decide to continue to bed from CD 10 onwards until after ovulation is confirmed from taking my temp and then to bd three days together (which I didn't do last time around) as I was bd and then missing a day and then bd and forgot to bd three days consecutively after OPK are positive... is anyone else doing the DP?

C1ndy - Sorry you got your AF but glad you seem optomistic for next month

I did the Deanna Plan one month, didn't work for me but may have done if i'd done it for more months... Heard it's quite good though, good luck with it!

Hi all.

I;m still trying to do DP Cindy.

My cycle is totally f*** up this month. Temp has dropped last two days but too early for af I think. Lots of creamy cm but had that before with no pregnancy and am blaming the weather and sweat (urgh!) for constantly being wet down there.

Hello all - how is it going?

I've been away on hols - just back to work this week!

cindy sorry AF arrived - but you do sound positive

yellow sorry cycle confused but hope this is your month

broodzilla so nice to hear from you! And time has def gone fast! Glad sickness bit better too. Def keep us updated!

jools fingers crossed for the 2ww - we should be testing around the same time!

Anyone heard from wasabi or funtime? I miss them...

Hi Ladies, just popping in to see how you all are. Good luck with TWW Jools sorry AF got you Cindy Hi Iggy and Yellow

Things OK with me, I am feeling sick constantly and really tired, but I am hoping this is a good sign

Dalrymps Okay, thanks. How are you... You must be at the 7 week mark? if you want to, you can go over to the GFJ site, where all our graduates go... they will welcome you with open arms. You can discuss everything with them. The website is: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/633845-GFJ-drinkers-anonymous?pg=32

Yellow Sorry that temp has dip lets hope it picks up soon... I am on a 32 cycle right now... but have moved back to a 29 this month. I use to be a 28 day cycle - oh well I am getting back to where I was. I have decided that I am going to sit my DH down and show him the days we must bd to get that bfp as I think he thinks that I make it all up and that I am too military in getting the job done. Can you give me some advice on what you are doing... are you going the whole hog... from say CD 8 on wards i.e. do a day, miss a day etc??

Oh, while I am on here, can someone advice me on when I ovulate... Okay, picture this my OPK stick turns pink... I bd that night/day and then two more bd consecutively after that. Does anyone miss another day and then bd again? or is that overkill?

Iggy Goush the 2WW, how are you getting on, any symptons? I thought I may have hit the spot last month - yes thats me being positive... was sure I had loads of EWCM. Any way its gonna be all our months this time around, I can feel it in my bones.

Pinky great news on feeling sick!! said in the most possible niceist way!! (is that how you spell it.. you know what I mean).

I am really looking forward to ttc again this month its gonna be fun! I have my OPK sticks all lined up and my FF calendar and my temperature at the ready (under the bed, otherwise DD swipes it!!). Have I missed anything ... oh yes, DH will be sat down over the weekend while I go over the mission with him Isn't he lucky being married to me .

My AF came - totally unexpected in spite of temp drop because I thought it was too early. Guess my nice pattern of 30 or 38 day cycles done as this was 33. We def bd'd the right time though (we did it so much this month) so just bad luck I guess.

DH is having sperm test this month.

Cindy - we do a lot of BDing but it causes issues - I feel it is always me asking for it and he gets annyed if I mention it too much and I get annoyed if he doesn;t acknowledge we need to do it and therefore makes me nag. About every two months I have a major cry and he promises to be better and then it's fine. But I find the whole thing is down to me - I have to constantly ensure we are BDing even though he knows we have to do it a lot. It makes me furious but I am trying to deal with it. That said, we do manage to do it an awful lot so I guess it works, but I wish I didn't have to be the one to nag and cajole.

Sorry for AF Yellow, but hopefully this means your cycle is shortening closer to the average 28 days - more opportunities to conceive As you know, I also have issues with BD and my DP. I don't think there is any simple solution

Cindy no advice for you on timing I'm afraid - I'm one of these really annoying people who manages to catch from 1 BD in the month, simply because I track EWCM and feel ov pains.

Feeling nauseous this morning
