LOL handbag - heres some choc for you too - hope it gets the juices flowing, creative or otherwise

well as you can all see i didnt make it to the gym - it was glass of wine and settle down for grand designs and desperate housewives that won the battle! oh what a tough decision that was

talking of battles, mr.rom is the same - wants me to be a raging nymphomaniac all year around - until suddenly on "0" day (or "uh-oh" day as i now call it) he gets all suspicious of me and feels like "a piece of meat".

Debbsy · 19/05/2005 08:06

well still in seperate rooms not talkingat all now hes making out hes the victim im ready to walk out the door and never evre come back .

charleepeters · 19/05/2005 08:14

Morning all. Sorry to say dp and i didnt commit to any bding last night, he found a 'lump' down below so im just off to the drs, i swear if its not one thing with me its another, so now im again worried sick but will let you know what they say. so anyway it doesnt look like its my month this month as i was ovulating yesterday and we didnt do it. what are my chances of falling pg if we did it the day before and the day after ov? anyway hope your all well and i will keep you updated.

sparkly · 19/05/2005 08:30

Hi all ... I'm back! That said, I don't recognise many names on here so maybe everyone else has graduated?? I had a m/c in February so am we're now back trying. Awaiting AF who should be due anytime now really ... not that optimistic we were lucky last month as barely saw DP! Just counted and realised I'm on CD37 since last AF but since m/c everything been a bit out of whack. If no AF by this time next week, I may test but after testing early last time then miscarrying just days later, I'm a bit reluctant ... sigh.

Good luck to everyone x

Frizbe · 19/05/2005 09:08

Hi Sparkly! nice to meet you as it were

Hi to everyone else as well

Handbag what's happening with you? I'm going to test on Tue 24th if no AF, as that'll be day 32, and last month was a 32 cycle....

Charleepeters hope its nothing serious {{Hugs}}

Have a good day everyone, we're off to brave the Debenhams sale at Meadowhell.

Bella23 · 19/05/2005 09:30

Munz Hiya, sorry was out last night or would have replied, thanks for persona info. I am on CD16 and no O symbol and no more testing so looks like it won't show this month.
After thinking about yours and my situation I have come to the conclusion that we have ovulated slightly later this month and therefore persona has run out of tests by the time it has come around. I think me doing the cleablue shows that theory don't you?!

Rom - ashamed to say that the grapefruit juice is still sat in the fridge unopened - how crap is that!!

Debbsy - arh, sorry you are not speaking to DH, bless. I hope he is making an effort for your forgiveness {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

Sparkly - welcome back, hope your stay is short xxx

Charleepters - what kind of lump? Is it small and kind of pea shaped? If so I have had this before and it is just a swollen gland from a bit of friction from bding. Let us know how you get on xxxx

Well hope everybody is ok today.......

CD16.....still going to bd for the next couple of days and then relax onto the 2 week wait.......relax? Yeh right!!!!!!!!

george32 · 19/05/2005 09:32

Just thought I'd drop in to say hi. Still just about keeping up with all the antics over here!
Rom, I do hope you get some more help from your GPs. Obviously that is second to a BFP!! I'm sure you are right about G&B chocolate, definitely an aid to fertility (better than grapefruit juice anyway)
Bella, hope everythings going well with your gardner . How are you getting on with job hunting? Any joy yet?
Wendy, I hope you are OK. I guess your injection phase starts soon so I wish you all the luck in the world.
Lilsmum, I'm so sorry
Lots of luck to everyone this month & I thought I'd add some babydust for you all

Bella23 · 19/05/2005 09:44

George - great to hear from you, hope all is well with you and that you are getting nice and fat (in a good way)
Still job hunting and hoping for a BFP so that I don't care about a job!!
xx

charleepeters · 19/05/2005 11:41

thans for worrying about me yet agaain lol, it just an infeted cist nothing to worry about so does anyone know what my chances are of concieving is i bd day before and day after ov since i missed actuall day yesterday ? hope your all well, charlee xxx oh yeah i got my folic acid today

romilly · 19/05/2005 11:49

debbsy god i am so sorry he is being so unsupportive. the victim thing sounds particularly annoying - cant he see what you are going through? i think ttc puts an awful lot of stress on relationships and you both need to sort this out rather than just not talking - which is only going to make things harder for both of you. please try and sit down and talk and listen to each other tonight, even if you dont feel like it.

charlee - eeeeek, get him to the docs pronto. there are many harmless types of lumps, but don't delay in getting it checked out. you know my history with mr. rom - so i am paranoid about any this stuff - but, do put your minds at rest.

george - soooooo nice to hear from you when is your next scan? is your d/h still doing the marathon? how are you feeling, knackered or great?! we miss you guys

bella and munzie - i agree with bella, reckon you are later this month bella - dont forget our bodies do not run like clockwork, LOL - there are no hard and fast rules and even these clever little gadgets might find it hard to keep up with whats going on! you have to drink the juice by the way, not just look at it!

romilly · 19/05/2005 11:51

sorry forgot to say hello and welcome back to the mad world of ttc sparkly

Bella23 · 19/05/2005 12:02

Charleepters - glad all ok at the doctors, that is a relief.
Rom - good advice there to Debbsy. Oh I have to drink the juice as well......mmmm....

Well am off now for the afternoon as have a couple of meetings etc. Will check in tonight....have a nice afternoon

romilly · 19/05/2005 12:06

debbsy - kegels are pelvic floor exercises!!!! you were asking! they are recommended by Toni Weschler when you are checking for EWCM but are getting confused with semen (sorry, but she did ask!)- they get rid of residual unnecessary semen, so you can see your CM properly. but i hasten to add, should not be done directly after bd'ing coz you must give swimmers a bit of time to do their lengths

Chuffed · 19/05/2005 12:14

debbsy so sorry about everything that has happened but agree with rom you guys really need to talk about it.
charleepeters do you definately know you ovulated or is it just that the scan showed there was one due to pop, it could have taken more than the one day to pop open so keep going...
bella did you keep going with the pressure point stuff? - it was you wasn't it...
I feel fine - still no real signs apart from being permanently 'wet' (tmi but dh not complaining

charleepeters · 19/05/2005 12:25

Rom - i went to the docs and she said it was just an infected cist so i have cream and it should be gone in the next couple of days.
chuffed - i dont know for sure but my ov claender said yesterday and cm indicates it was yestedday but i have beed bding for the couple of days before that and im planning to tonight is there still a chance i could concieve??? its not to bad if i dont i can always try next month.

HandbagAddiction · 19/05/2005 12:49

Just a quick hello from me again! Hope everyone is OK and Debbsy - so sorry that your DH is still being so horrible - hang in there girl!

So where am I? CD27 and DPO11 I think. Like Frizbe, had a 32 day cycle last month....so on that basis I think Monday is AF day. I have no test sticks in the house (on purpose I might add) and I have no opportunity to get to a chemist or supermarket for a few days...so I have nothing available to tempt me to test until next week. Honest!!

Reckon I might test on Tuesday if AF doesn't arrive on time...but I have my suspicions that it will (more's the pity). Ho-Hum....looking forward to next month already.....

george32 · 19/05/2005 12:57

Miss you guys too.
I'm feeling pretty ropey at the moment. Really tired and sick feeling (ducks as the whole TTC thread throws tins at my head for moaning!!)
I'm sure it is a good sign but I'm looking forward to my next scan, in 2 or 3 weeks time, when hopefully I can relax a bit.

Willing you guys over to an ante-natal thread soon. I think these BFPs are like buses, you don't get one for a while & then loads come past at once.

piffle · 19/05/2005 14:17

OMG A gal is offline for two days and comes back to a thread a mile long already!!!
Debbsy so sorry about all you have gone through and I hope that DH of yours is playing nicely again now.
Me am not temping charting this month like Hula said I am finding it too intense.
AF has just finished
So here we go again...................
Good luck everyone else on the roundabout
I am on cd 7 of an expected 31 day cycle, usually ovd is cd16
Hmmm we'll see
TTC no 3 for almost 2 yrs
dd 2.6
ds 11yo
ectopic Nov 04 losing one tube, but have been told that ovaries and remaining tube are "beautiful"
Ha! I'll take their word for it.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

teuch · 19/05/2005 15:55

hullo...just checking in. On CD29 although feck knows when O'd, if indeed my ovaries bothered this month. Last month was 33 days which makes AF due about Monday too (although I had marked wednesday in the diary???)

Strange days, got lots of creamy CM again couple of days ago so BD just in case really late O...unfortunately I think it was just the oestrogen surge that comes before AF.

I am soooooo pre-menstrual and two glasses of wine last night did not help one little bit .

HandbagAddiction · 19/05/2005 16:02

So - it looks like it's me, Frizbe and Teuch on for some early testing next week then ??!!

Tabs · 19/05/2005 16:11

Hello ladies. Not checked in yet today as in a bad/sad mood and didn't want to inflict myself on you all!!

Will catch up with you all properly later.

So, anyone in the 2ww got any possible signs yet? Sounds like there'll be lots of testing happening next week, but who will be our first graduate?????

milosmum · 19/05/2005 16:28

hi ladies im having a down day today..... even though my temp went back up (good sign) and my cm has still not dried uo after ov (another good sign)..i just really cant bare the thought of another BFN . Cant do a preg test until saturday at the earliest but have convinced myself it is not gonna make me smile.....

charleepeters · 19/05/2005 17:41

Hopefully i can test wek after next but that will be an early test so i probably wont, not that im gonna be pg since i couldnt bd on my ovulation day doh! but day before and day after so will keep hopefull anyway, hope your all well sory to here your feeling down milosmum hope your feeling better soon hugs to you all

romilly · 19/05/2005 17:50

hi piffle wondered where you'd got to

sorry milosmum and tabs that you are having the dreaded ttc blues . only just managed to drag myself out of them, now i'm nearly at end of AF. i never used to have a problem with getting moody or weepy at AF time, but now its a nightmare!

george - sorry you are feeling a bit ropey, but ropey is good not long 'til you are in the second trimester, which is supposed to be better (?) LOL at BFPs being like buses, so true. ok, munzie lets have a whole batch of BFP's for the next testers then.

dust galore to handbag, teuch and frizbe and tabs...

where is wendy today? wendy i showed your v. useful info to mr.rom - i think he is a bit spooked by IVF (but tells me he would consider it) so i have to tread v. carefully.

romilly · 19/05/2005 17:52

thankyou for the dust chuffed

debbsy - where've you got to hon? come and tell us that you are ok
