Much more slob night than last night. Watching Sport relief dance thing! Pretty good!

Loujalou · 27/02/2010 20:07

Arsenal won and Chelski lost. Woo hoo!! May even have SFF tonight.

UmBongo · 27/02/2010 22:36

Hi all, just checking in. Not sore, as have not dtd at all yet this month. Dh took his sample to the hosp. this week and seems reluctant to come to bed since.

I think we are on cycle 21 ish, tho, so we do qualify for the long haul aspect of this bus!

I have managed to stop dh from laptopping on his knee tho, but the pot of zinc tablets has not gone down for a long time. Just have to wait for the test results now.

Hi UmBongo

Having polished off my indian (nice one OH) and watched Dorian Gray (creepy) I am currently being subjected to Match of The Day Think I might take a cup of tea to bed

Enjoying being stress free...a few more days and I will have to start forcing convincing OH to SWI

Fairygodmother1 · 28/02/2010 09:47

Morning all, SWI began last night so no sore bits just yet - give me a week or so!

Teafan Glad Indian went down well - I really want to see Dorian Grey.

Umbongo is DH using just zinc or is it a multivitamin as I had DH on the santogen Male version of our pro natal but I could get mine cheaper so put DH on men's multi-vit! I've also banned laptop anywhere from his lap!

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/02/2010 16:33

Well my sorebits have a break until Friday and then it's legs apart and do the okey pokey!!

For the past few days an advert off the tv and radio has been following me around and if I see or hear it again I'm going to go mad!

It's about contraception and how I need it and all the ways I can get it. Sat there last night watching tv , minding my own business and it comes on I was like a women possesed I started shouting ' I don't want and I don't need I want to be pregnant' . Dh went 'at least your not shouting at me!'

What ad is that? It's preg test ads I keep seeing or always 5 in 1!!!

Icedlemonmuffin · 28/02/2010 19:06

Fairy I think it's a department of health one and it's got speech bubbles in it not people it's annoying I'm glad it's not stalking you as well !!

I hate the pregnancy ones too, that bloody women on the cb one I just want to hit her ( with a muffin of course nothing heavy).

Is every one hitting the wine tonight? I can't is hairwash and bath night tonight ( checking for nits) god I'm wild

Fairygodmother1 · 28/02/2010 19:20

Oh I know the one - well bloody annoying. I don't remember ever sitting on the sofa with my mum discussing whether a TV character had discussed contraception!!!!

yep the Clear blue 1-2 weeks pg!!! If only i could get that bloody result!!!

I can't either as I'm a teacher!

Loujalou · 01/03/2010 08:13

I have a week til the horrid witch is due.

Not sure if I mentioned it on this thread but if I do win a baby this month it is due on TH birthday. Well as both TH and DS were six weeks early not too worried - plus I am not going to be pregnant anyways.

On the plus side I have a hypno appointment tomorrow and next week acupuncture which I am strangely excited by!

stuffedmk · 01/03/2010 09:36

Well, I did the apologising thing and got DH back on side so the bits are defo sore, just have to keep going for couple more days then they can have a well earned rest lol.

Have worked out that AF will be due around mothers day (unless I ov much later than expected) surely that has to be a sign!!

Folic acid makes me feel sick!!! Blargh!

I am only on cycle 5 but have waited 8 years for DH to agree to DC#2 and spent most of that time praying for an accident lol. So I am very impatient I try to relax about it but am failing miserably!!

I have found the charting sort of helps in the 2ww. My cycles are not terrible in comparison to some peoples but are not as regular as they could be so knowing when AF is due at least stops me thinking I must be pg when it is a long cycle. I do still go a bit mental in the 2ww but at least it is a 2ww not a 3ww and I know when to start POAS

Unbuffy · 01/03/2010 10:16

Morning girls!

Well it looks like af has gone now (came, went, came back??? Sure it ain't actually male?) so am preparing for swiwav (with a vengeance). Keeping fingers crossed for another Christmas baby (groans all round, not FAIR, done that once and you can't EAT anything or DRINK at all but just want a baby don't care when end of rant...)

Apparently 'took advantage of' dh yesterday while half asleep (him not me!) after night shift. His words. But don't think he minded really so that should get the party started for this month. So much for romance...

Iced, do you have a good recipe for your name? Have a fancy for baking!

Bestest sticky wishes to all (sticky must be better than dry for sore bits too...)

stuffedmk · 01/03/2010 10:16

Hmmm, I think that post could have done with a bit more punctuation.

stuffedmk · 01/03/2010 10:17

Mine not Unbuffys lol

Louja I had hypnosis and loved it...it was for something else though and I kind of developed a secret crush on the therapist!

Lucy we have been trying for a year now but it is actually only 7 cycles if you don't count months where i couldn't get OH to SWI with illnesses/bad backs etc. I was really glad when Iced started this thread because it's a good place to talk about TTC generally but not get hung up in the stats! POAS is Pee On A Stick by the way you might find this website interesting - the woman that runs it is definitely weird a nutter dedicated!
