Fanta, I'm 30 and have been on the pill since I was 15 - so 15 years on the pill for me too. We're all in quite similar positions, although I'm lucky to have hubby here nearly every night.

I have a really really embarrassing question to ask (due to my lack of DTD knowledge). When we BD, I lie down (after climaxing to help the sperms get further up!) for half an hour, but when I go to the loo after, loads of stuff comes out - I have no idea if it's the lube, or the sperm Is this normal? Will the sperm have already had a chance to make their way? :o:o:o:o

I'm no expert but I would say the strong ones have already made their way beyond the gunk that comes out. I was CD20 today but AF has deffo arrived. All 5mls of it.

The cbft monitors 2 hormones...similar to the POAS LH and another one. Mine's read high now even tho I've come on so not sure what that's all about.

No point in DTD but going to have some extra curricular activity to keep it real and normal here.

fanta you've just defined my story, though i'm 37 (at the mo) so my time is definately running out. Don't think i'm gonna test this month cos FF say we DTD too late. At least we're practicing ready for next month.

lilian i'm jealous, i loved getting married and wish i could do it again, to OH of course!

hey all! only my third post. had a catch-up. congrats daleigha! yay!

gizmodo i have been wondering the exact same thing! i'm glad you were brave and asked

bit miffed as i am on cd21 and no ov pains yet... since i have been tracking, i consistently ov between cd 19 and cd 21 and get ov pains for 2 days (on alternate sides each cycle and everything!). but nothing yet this month. hmmmm. must try to stop worrying, i'm sure it's not helping

after a couple of times being convinced i MUST be pg after mad symptom spotting, but to no avail, i don't like testing. i think i will stay off the testing list if that's ok... well, i say that now but let's see what i'm like when i get to cd 34 or so!

off back to lurking now. just needed a mini-rant.

i have been away for a while but thought i would update you.last week i got a BFP.

Good luck to those of you still trying and congratulations to those of you who have your BFP

Holy c**p!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Got a BFP 5 minutes ago. Am shaking like a leaf!

Although I haven't posted much it has been a priviledge to share all your ups and downs on this thread - you are a very special bunch of girls. I will continue to lurk and keep my fingers crossed that each of you gets your BFP very very soon.

Off to check test again and make sure I didn't imagine it! xxxxxxxxx

Perdi

Ooo a rash of BFPs!

Congratualtions ladies

There's something in the water!
Don't worry about your age Lemon Tree, my BFF is 39 and 7 months PG and has had fybroid problems and constant problems with AF forever. There is hope.

I know this probably isn't with the grain by my MIL says she got pregnant 2 days before AF (not planned) so it's worth maintaining the lurve-making every week for the "you just never know" factor. Chance would be a fine thing for me. He's away another night. Fingers crossed for Wed or Thursday.

Congrats Balj & Sim!:)

mmmmm not sure :think: I try to stay put until following morning but a right wriggler and 9 times out of ten need to get up to go to the loo so understand what you are saying.

I said this to DH a while a go and he replied "well remember the scene in maybe baby [the film based on ben eltons book inconceivable] and after they dtd she went on her moped to the docs so he could see what was going on, so they must be ok" :rotfl: and then replied "the speed i'm shooting them out they are bound to hit the back of the net" :rotfl: :eek:

And then :eek: after another 5 mins said "well it works for the one night stands who have a quicky on the way home from the pub and then carry on walking home" :eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Gotta love him he he!!!! :T

Morning guys, congrats to both slm and balijay on their BFPs!!! So pleased for both of you.
CD5 for me and as soon as witch leaves going to BD as much as poss this month! Poor OH won't know what's hit him!
Whilst I feel a teeny bit jealous of others BFP the pma way to look at it is to give hope that soon it could be you posting news of you BFP.
Only working half day as taking my mum to see Ronan Keating this evening - so excited as we both love him ! X
