Trying for a Baby part 5....

Metranil_Vavin

Evening ladies...just got back from my reflexology, and feeling a bit dopey.

Dont think I'm going to be able to afford to go too often - £50 a session..:eek:not very MSE I know!:o

But I feel relaxed so that's good.

Fairy - I dont know what to say because I know what I'm like!! I'd probably be POAS myself, but remember it is early to test..but up to you...and if you do please can you let us know the result!!!!

Tiger - sorry you had a painful BD...sometimes I get a bit..ahem..dry. That preseed stuff does sound good. May get some.

Giz - I think the reflexology does help in some way with libido, and quite often I cant be bothered. Maybe it's just the relaxation side of things.

Sammy-girl - me too! Got vouchers to do our photobook, but just can't decide what photos to include.

Sleepytiger - is it a problem with things drying up? If so, I definately recommend pre-seed - it's a great lubricant and not only that is supposed to help his swimmers find their way to the right place

Might get some of that when we start properly trying again, but it wasn't a dryness issue. Not sure what causes it, but entry was difficult iykwim and then it just felt abrasive.

Should i test or should i not??? HELP!!!!!!!!

No. 4 days is too early, but if you really, really, really need to (and we've all been there) wait til tomorrow and use FMU because you'll get a more accurate result.

Good luck. Will cross my fingers and toes for you

Hi QQuaver! No i haven't started yet!! im really not sure what to do! im finishing this packet of dianette, which is finished next tues, the doc said it can take up to 3 months to leave my system! as im not wanting to fall pregnant til Aug/Sep im not sure when i need to start takin folic acid / vitamins! maybe someone will know? sure is exciting and thats only thinking about it! cant get down to the practical yet!! lol

Deffo start taking folic acid now. However if you are adamant that you don't want to get PG before august then don't come off the pill. I have had too many friends who have followed the 3 months to get out of your system rule only to get PG straight away. :eek: However, if you would be happy whenever it happens then get to it lol .

Ive spent what spare time Ive had this afternoon reading up on all the info I could find on the net.
My cycle is a bit irregular - can be anywhere between 22 & 27 days and my research tells me I should have been dancing all week !!
DH works away through the week but the good news is that as is its bank hol on Fri he will be home tomorrow - a day early !!
Im gonna drag him upstairs the minute he walks through the door and hope its not too late !!

There's a few of us here who don't get the chance to BD often, that's why trying to work out when to Ov is a good idea. have you considered OPK's? I've used them for a couple of months but never got a +ve result which sent me running to the docs. However, some on here have had good results from the ClearBlue Fertility Monitor. It's costly though so I wouldn't rush out to buy it until you've had a good few cycles.

Tiger - hugs, not to be too personal but is there plenty of build up (iykwim). I know when we are TTC I sometime miss all the foreplay to head straight to the action but it isn't always comfortable as I haven't been warmed up first ..xx

MV - £50 wow, money well spent though if it does the job

Fairy - tut tut .
Although i'm sure I would've done exactly the same, lol. are you going to try again in the morning. honestly, I think you should wait til saturday but i know it is more easily said than done.

Sammy - thanks for holiday mention. We are going to look at booking New York/miami when we get back from Egypt in June. something to take our minds of TTC anyway.

Right, i'm off to dip a dairy milk, fresh from the fridge into a steaming hot cup of tea.

Nite nite...xx

I hope that this works, if you want a laugh at the state of my chart feel free to have a look

@Lemon Tree - that worked. Hmmm, I can see why FF doesn't want to put in a line. That does look quite erratic.

Are you taking temps the same time every morning? Not getting up in the night, not drinking before etc etc? If I remember rightly FF suggests to either try a new thermometer (maybe its faulty), or to take readings vaginally.

But not everyone is the same, so maybe this is normal for you. Hopefully you will see some obvious temp shift soon.

//Edit - @Lemon Tree. I just had a nosey at the Chart Gallery on FF. You can search for "Erratic BBT" in the options and there seem to be lots of charts with similar erratic-ness as yours and some don't have the ov line or cover line. And some do. Just be patient for now and BD as much as poss and see how the chart pans out.

@Tiger - I have vaginismus (http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/vaginismus/Pages/Introduction.aspx). Could it be that your muscles are tightening for some reason and that's causing the pain? Even if it's not dryness, lubricant might help. We used preseed last month. But when not around fertile times I use liquid silk which is the best (my consultant gave me some) http://www.liquidsilk.com/

@dusty - I dip chocolate in my tea too!! I thought I was the only one who did it! People at work think I'm weird. Galaxy and toblerone are both lovely dipped in tea

@Fairy - don't give up hope. It is still early. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
