Hold on, here we go again!

Hum,
Buzz,
Click click
Hum

Monitor blinks, glows
Processor thrums happily

Fingers fly across the keyboard
"Hi how are you?"
"I'm fine been waiting for you"
Smile spreads wide across my face

Her words appear slowly
Full of humor and warmth
A cyber smile, a virtual laugh
Silent yet I hear

Realizing it's time to go,
a somatic sensation warms me

"I hope to chat again soon"
"Till then good bye"

Click click
Buzz
Silence

I found this and thought of us!......

Heehee you wish! Thanks for doing that Barbie.

Curlywurleelittlepants · 06/05/2009 18:23

I'm out too. Stupid AF is here. Jools and gg smelling their wee has cheered me right up tho. We really need to get up the duff again before we totally lose the plot

Still posting from phone so will keep it brief. Lots of love to everyone xxx

MummyLovesSadie · 06/05/2009 18:38

Curlywurlee agree with you 110%, if I don't get a bfp soon I think I might end up stealing a baby from the Mother & Toddler group I go to with dd! Sorry the wicked witch got you, bloody old bitch.

Neeko · 06/05/2009 21:27

Hello. Yay. The thread is getting back to normal! MLS is swearing and Barbie knows what everyone is up to. Phew! Yo had me worried there girls!
Seriously barbie I'm really sorry you're having such a crappy time and hope it gets better for you soon. The tampon story made me smile.
MLS your website and art work looks great you talented lady. Thanks for the tips on how to stalk you in future! Hee hee.

Curley sorry you're out for this month but glad there's another one to obsess with now! Within 4 weeks there's going to be a bumper crop of BFPs on here - all conceived on kate's honeymoon.
I started my opks today as it's day 8 (as gracie knows with her excellent list ) and I don't want to miss it. Not leaving anything to chance this month.

MummyLovesSadie · 06/05/2009 21:39

Neeko opk's how exciting, I'm starting mine tomorrow..... and so the cycle of madness begins once again!

Neeko · 06/05/2009 21:46

It's actually quite exciting for me as this is me doing it for real this time. I dare say if I don't manage this month it won't be exciting next month. DH is away from wed-fri next week (CD 15-17)but could possibly manage to BD before he leaves on Wed and when he comes back on Fri so I'm hoping it will be enough. God I can't bloody think about anything else!!

MummyLovesSadie · 06/05/2009 21:58

Tell me about it, I feel like an alien has replaced the contents of my brain with everything I've ever Googled regarding ttc & believe me that's a whole lotta facts & fiction flying around in my head!

How long was your cycle before? On average most woman ov on day 14 so you should be ok.

Neeko · 06/05/2009 22:19

I was 28 days on the dot but who knows now. Thank goodness for temping and opks! Off to bed now. Really good to have you back

Kick up an rumpus, don't lost the compass...
And get Kate to the church...... Get Kate to the church.....
For Gawd's sake get Kate to the church on time!!!!!!!!

Neeko · 07/05/2009 08:41

Morning!
Gracie My you're really on the ball today. Well done. Hope you have a wonderful time at Kate's wedding and don't get a hangover from her DH's drinks!

Barbie That's a long day. Hope the gym helps. Chin up!

Catch you all later.

Joolsiam · 07/05/2009 08:49

gaaaaahhh - am in a stonkingly bad mood Mission seduction worked last night, but DP failed to perform as required and I had SUCH a hard time not getting obsessive and sulky and putting pressure on !

Got a conference call in ten mins so back soon. Your singing was better than mine would be Gracie - I never knew all the words to that one anyway !!!

MummyLovesSadie · 07/05/2009 09:15

Jools are we married to the same man? It's my dh's turn later & I'm hoping that all his parts will be in good working order!

Nice singing GG, that song will be in my head all day now!

Neeko have you had a + opk yet? What time of day do you do them as apparently you get a more accurate result if you do them around lunchtime. Have visions of you doing them in mini cubicles at school!

MummyLovesSadie · 07/05/2009 09:16

Jools come to think of it my dh was home VERY late last night...

GracieGirl · 07/05/2009 09:38

Jools obviously you couldn't hear my singing loud enough through your posh phone thingy, it was pretty dire!!!

Neeko I do the OPK's between 1 and 4pm usually depending on what I'm doing and fitting round work. Though I got a positive at 8am after a night shift too.

MLS how clever, that could be why your DH is always too knackered, he's running round the country being DH to all of us too!!

VJaybigpants · 07/05/2009 09:48

What a lovely way to start the day with gracies song for kate, I'll now be singing that all day!
Tried to catch up but you lot talk to much, I've been too tired to join in sorry, I did lurk a bit yesterday. Sorry you're having a tough time barbie but it's early days hun, and I bet by the end of next week you'll have settled in lovely and bding like mad cos it'll be the middle of your cycle, plus isn't your anniversary around that time too?
kate have an absolutley fabulous day tomorrow, don't worry about a thing, just enjoy every single moment
jools sorry you're in a bad mood, but for what it's worth I think you're ace, you've had a stumble, got up and dusted yourself down and got on with it, well done to you.
MLS love te website, the artwork is gorgeous
Big waves to you all, I'm off to study now.....

mermaidspurse · 07/05/2009 09:52

opk test 1-2ish and try not to drink too much vodka water for a little while before hand. mermaid desperately trying to wrench white coat out of jools clutches but after the wee autopsy yesterday I think I have lost

kate have a lovely pre wedding day, its made me all nostalgic.

curly I expect you are leaping on a plane/train but sorry af arrived. Not bloody easy is it.

jools our dhs are running for the hills! Maybe we need to set them up in a camp somewhere and we can get in our wagons and circle them cracking our whips

barbie hope you have a bit of a better day

4ever I admire your work ethic this week well I hope you are working and not feeling poorly after the injection? hopefully all the nuns are working their holy miracles.xx

I have managed to pick myself up off the floor after working out how much a new one will cost so had better go and do some work so I can have one. I have floor envy I can only admit it here

Neeko · 07/05/2009 10:44

Mermaid You are so funny! Hope you get your new floor soon.

Jools I'm sorry about your DH. Hope you have more success today. surely not too late

Vjay You seems to be working very hard this week. Well done! Hope you're getting plenty of little kicks to keep you going.

MLS I do my opks as soon as I get home from work (between 4.30 and 5pm). I can't do them at work because of the silly-baby-mad-wait-for-your-pee-to-reach-room-temp stuff I try not to drink for a few hours 1st though. Do you think that's ok or should I buy the expensive immediate ones that I can use immediately so I can pee to my heart's content at work? P.S. It's quite hard to drink all that water for EWCM and to wait a few hours between pees for opks. What do they think we are?

cupcakefairy · 07/05/2009 10:51

Morning everyone

Barbie no need to apologise at all! I know you are not always like that (cos I'm an ex-lurker ) and plus we all have our wobbles.

You ladies have made me laugh this morning though... our poor DHs and the pressure they must feel!

MummyLovesSadie · 07/05/2009 11:12

Neeko did you buy the midstream tests or the dip tests? I used to buy the dip tests (they are cheaper) but I found that the midstream ones seemed to give a more definite result plus they are more 'user friendly'! I still get them from Babymad, I didn't see anything about waiting for your wee to get to room temp but I'm probably too eager ripping off the packet to notice!

Perhaps they think we are camels with an endless capacity to drink & store water?

I've been drinking loads of grapefruit juice (bbleeeuuugghhh)& have definitely noticed more ewcm. It's quite deceiving though as how are you supposed to know whether you are actually in your fertile phase or if its the juice thats making you juicy??!

Joolsiam · 07/05/2009 11:23

Mermaid - I'll have you know that my wee still smells sweet I deffo have that enhanced sense of smell thing going on and boobs are inflating - no BD action since MC though and BFN this week, so I know it is OV hormones !!

Operation Seduction will resume this evening - it is so hard being nice when inside you want to scream at him for spending all evening in the pub though !!

GracieGirl · 07/05/2009 11:43

Neeko I use the dip tests from Babymad and I soon got bored with waiting for wee to get to room temperature. They work for me at normal wee temperature!

MummyLovesSadie · 07/05/2009 12:26

Jools I feel your pain - on the outside a picture of calm & serenity - on the inside, a screaming harridan!

Neeko · 07/05/2009 12:53

Right off to Superdrug to buy their expensive ones! Will stock up on Babymad ones if this months operation doesn't work.

kate030284 · 07/05/2009 13:12
