UnBongo I tried the whole AS thing too but much to my relief OH wasn't really into it! My book arrived yesterday so had a good read last night, to be fair i've picked up a few ideas and reminded myself about a few things but most of it made me feel totally inadequate, there were all these positions that looked impossible to me Am mortified, SWI is soul destroying enough but it's even worse now it seems that i'm rubbish at it

Anyway, fell asleep after all that but still only CD9 so plenty of time yet

Unbuffy · 04/03/2010 13:00

All ya need is stockings. No other fannying about with exciting (and therefore uncomfortable) underwear, positions and whatever, jut good ol' fashioned stockings and suspenders. And let him get a peep of 'em early in the evening so he has time to think about it.
ime, of course .

Considering wearing them over the entire ov period - could save hours of foreplay and getting in the mood. Then can just take everything else off and climb aboard (ew, nasty image of self there...)

TeaFan · 04/03/2010 14:08

Lol, thanks UnBuffy I feel better now When we first met we just went at it with passionate, uninhibited abandon but now we're stuck in a rut... I suppose if we were good at it once then we can be again! SWI is just the biggest passion killer ever...

Unbuffy · 04/03/2010 15:00

Know what you mean teafan. I'm sure it used to be fab, back in the good ole days (sigh). But somewhere along the way it's just not the exciting recreational pastime it used to be.

Loujalou · 05/03/2010 08:13

I remember those days when sex was fantastic. How do we bring them back. It still is sometimes - but on the whole its not spontaneous and I don't know. Its just hard (pun intended!).

TeaFan · 05/03/2010 18:01

I'm sorry you ladies are feeling the same but it's great to find out that i'm normal!

Unbuffy · 05/03/2010 19:11

Change of subject a little here. Does anybody else want to BITE if one more person asks you to do something for them? I feel I just want to focus on US for a bit, and we keep having to plan around other f**g people's problems. Grrrr. Rarg. and other ranty noises as well.

Unbuffy · 06/03/2010 09:59

Where did everybody go? (looks around at empty room, watches tumbleweed bouncing slowly past in eerie breeze. Saloon doors flap unneccesarily)

Loujalou · 06/03/2010 11:03

I am here and all ready for horrid witch to turn up. That means more SWI. AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Unbuffy · 06/03/2010 19:18

I am in the middle of a romping swi week/fortnight. Deea eleven in the Boofy Hoosehoold and we're busy busy busy. No signs of ov but then no guarantee that I haven't... some iffy tummy pains but that might just be toooooooooooo much shaggin'

oh well, worth a shot (pun intended wholeheartedly)

UnBuffy I am v jealous of your energy and enthusiasm - I should be SWI but I am in a crabby mood and am so tired I could sleep standing up. Not exactly a good way to start. TG just wants to avoid me stay out of my way and is playing stupid Wii games. Bah. I have a very strong suspicion that this is not going to be our winning month!

Hi everyone meant to be playing party bingo but can't be bothered!! Wish I could get pregnant without all the hassel of having sex.

Loujalou · 07/03/2010 08:03

Iced maybe we all need to get a bulk order of turkey basters. Sure our other halfs would be happy to get us a sample by themselves. Would make it simpler.

Am going to doctors on Monday but not sure what to say. My hypno who used to be a midwife said to say we have not used contraception since Adi was born (2 yrs) and underplay the BFing. I BF for 13 months as that might stand in the way of getting tests done. Any advice ladies or should that be bus whores?

Icedlemonmuffin · 07/03/2010 08:37

Lou I agree with hypno midwife lady. Doctors don't really listen unless you stretch the truth a little.

Can I have a turkey baster when the order comes in please, quicker cleaner less hassel

OP posts:

Fairygodmother1 · 07/03/2010 10:03

Lou you need to stretch the truth slightly! Especially as I went to the dr about 10 months after we started trying & said it had been over a year! Our first app with cons was actually when we'd been trying for 12 months but didn't actually get clomid till we'd been trying for 1 1/2 years - over 2 years since we started trying now & still not pg. Clomid didn't help so waiting on IVF. I have some hope that I might actually be pg by the time our 3 year starting to try anniversary comes up.

The turkey baster sounds good! lol. Also SWI on friday morning!!!!! Go me (or should I say us?) lol.

How's the weekend going?

Unbuffy · 07/03/2010 11:30

ps lou bf stopping pg is a BIG FAT MYTH don't let them tell you otherwise. it CAN SOMETIMES interfere with ttc but NOT ALWAYS (pissed off with drs constantly pushing this). my mum got pg with my brother when i was 7 months and my last pg (ended sadly in mc) was begun while i was stll bf dd. etc.

Hello it's very quiet tonight hope everyone is ok.

Lou good luck at doctors tommorow remember stretch the truth and shed a few tears .

Well defenitely going to play party bingo tonight , really hope lucky bingo dabber does it's thing

OP posts:

Loujalou · 08/03/2010 08:38

I am sure I can manage a few tears.

PollyPoo · 08/03/2010 10:12

Lou good luck at the doctors.

Well its CD12 today and so far we've managed to SWI only once, and I didn't even get the money shot iykwim! I'd definitely sign up for a turkey baster at this rate. Last month we were really on a roll, but I just cannot be arsed this month - maybe because we did try to so hard last month, all for nothing. Gah, this ttfc does your head in doesn't it...

Loujalou · 08/03/2010 10:25

Its definitely TTFC not TTC.

Am pissed off with my body now. Had spotting on Friday. Bright red and had the sludgy brown stuff but still no witch.

PollyPoo · 08/03/2010 10:45

What day are you on Lou?

Loujalou · 08/03/2010 10:47

Feel crampy now. So feel that I am about to come on.

PollyPoo · 08/03/2010 10:58

Oh bollox. Sorry about that Lou. What time is docs? Do I take it you won't have to be faking tears today?
