    Since then I've had CM every day, usually quite creamy, but varying in amounts, but none watery/EW.
    I know I ov'd because of the huge temp rise and abrupt end to cm.
  • QQuaver thanks for that :T Spent ages looking and got lost :whistle:

    Done all my work so joining the ranks of those who are bored :cool:

    Off to the lake district this weekend. Any one ever been before? Really looking forward to the break and just hope the weather stays dry

    Superdrug had their own brand at bogof £8 (4 sticks altogether). I'm not getting any even though it was tempting:D

    No AF yet? Any signs?

    Daft question of the day (possibly!)..does anyone know if around ov time it is best to BD every day like the clappers, or do it every other day?

    The reason I'm asking is that I really should be BD'ing this evening, but I'm so full of cold and OH texted me earlier to tell me what a horrible stressy day he is having at work..I cant imagine that either of us are going to feel like it, and I'd rather not 'force' it so to speak.

    But..really dont want to waste precious ov days....anyone got any advice?

  • MV - the experts advise to bd every 2 or 3 days. I try to follow this, dont think I could manage everyday even around Ov just make more of an effort to bd every other day. As much as i want my BFP i dont want to force bd just to get it IYKWIM. Sure I read somewhere that the swimmers quality needed time to build up to but that may be wrong.

    My personal advise would be to bd when you feel you want to. Otherwise you could risk upsetting a healthy bedroom life (does that make sense?)

    Sorry if i make no sense. Very tired today so what I think and what I say or type seems to be two different things at the mo. :cool:

    Thanks GTS...that sounds very sensible. We did DTD yesterday so I reckon tomorrow may be better anyway. :D

    And welcome Frankie :)

    MV DH & I tend to be everyother day & each day during OV! I know they say that every other day is fine as sperm can last on it's journey for several days :D

    At the end of the day it is how you both feel. Like you said you don't want to force things......

    DH keeps saying that he wants conception to be remembered as a happy occasion rather then a quick I am OVing make a deposit job done kind of thing!!!! :rotfl::p

    I have been busy on MMC working out my OV days!!!!!! It does feel good & scary as hell to be on this path again.:(

    We have decided not to tell anyone in the real world when we do get PG again as telling people we had lost out last bean was horrible & I don't want to do that again. Fingers & everything crossed next time it will be a sticky one xoxo
    If you can think it........it will happen
