    Congrats M-I-3 :j:j:j

    Wishing you a healthy and happy pg :)



    Stupid me forgot to tell CBFM that today is CD1, and now its too late for today. Will I have to factory reset tomorrow? If so how do I do it as I don't know where the manual is. Thanks.

    Sammy Girl - if you press the M button on the CBFM and keep it pressed down it will scroll through from 1 to 2 in the top right hand corner and so you can set it to CD2 without any problem :)

    Congratulations MI3 - wishing you a very happy and healthy 9 months :D

    I think AF may be on her way now - this has been the weirdest cycle ever for me. I was wondering if the Evening Primrose Oil I had been taking to try and increase my CM had an effect on my cycle last month and made it shorter.

    A bit of Googling showed that EPO can reduce the length of a cycle by a few days which would fit with what happened to me. I have decided to ditch the EPO as I found it didn't make any difference to my CM as I still didn't get any EWCM anyway and I would prefer to have a 27 - 29 day cycle and just use Conceieve Plus to cover that side of things.

    Looks like we will be having some new CBFM recruits soon then :)

    I have decided that I am rejoining my gym/leisure centre at the weekend and am going to start trying harder on losing weight and exercising more. You lot put me to shame! I've also added a kind of couch to 5k application to hubbys iphone now I just need to get a decent sports bra and some trainers so I can get started.

    Fairy - I have today downloaded the couch to 5k podcasts to my ipod! Not sure when I am going to start it yet, may wait until the weekend.

    Congratulations MI3 on BPB:T

    Well done.
    Don't worry Giz, I don't appear to be going anywhere so you'll have me even though I have the CBFM...it just appears to be a gloating reminder that I am not in the position to dictate when we DTD.

    CD10 for me, poas day 2 for CBFM and low. Think it will go 2 bars tomorrow and then who knows??

    I wish for the day or you gals (and Simon) say congrats FF on your BFP...at the mo I just try to get the odd conversation with BFF who has 2 week old baby. I am going up to see her soon and think I'm going to go for the day for fear of staying overnight putting DH off the sleepless nights as she's on the boob. Is that bad of me? I know it's different when it's your own but lets face it, we all want our own and not praise somebody else. I really wanted to be PG by now so it would stop the wanting. I feel so selfish feeling like this but I remember her telling me at 7 weeks the news (she wasn't wanting).
    Here I am and not that I don't think (well I do think) we aren't able to have kids, just we never get the flipping bonking sorted at the right time. Roll on CBFM tomorrow morning. I can feel myself getting worked up already.
    I try to make it not a big deal but as I start to work on DH it feels like he's starting to pull back and thinks "must be that time again". It's not like we don't enjoy it, it's just it feels like an effort when it's for a purpose.

    Wallow and self pity over. Thanks for listening. x

    Well it's been 12 months and 15 cycles, but we finally have a bean!

    I'll probably lurk here for a while, but looking forward to graduating to the 'less than 12 weeks' thread. Hope to see you all there soon.

    MV - as you are collecting the CBFM stats we were the opposite to you DTD on peak day 2 but not 1. Looking forward to being your preggy buddy. How are you doing?

    Happy to answer any questions but only symptom so far is nervous excitement.

    CONGRATS MI3!!!!!

    Sticky Baby dust to all others, fingers crossed we get 4 BFP this month!!!!

    Hi girls - hugs to waterbaby - I feel jealous when someone is pg and we only started trying this morning - can't imagine how you feel.

    CD 19 for me today - I'm not that up on the science of what's happening to me right now - I guess if we conceived, it's clinging onto uterus for dear life, and if not, just deterioating ready for AF. Anywho, we will see next Thurs/Fri when I'm due..... fingers crossed..... :)

    Yup.
    I got this from the nhs site...
    If you bottle feed your baby, or combine bottle feeding with breastfeeding, your first period could start as soon as 5-6 weeks after you give birth.

    Well.... i did an opk earlier and i got the faintest of faint lines.
    All the others i've been doing have come up completly negative.

    That good yes? :D
  • I guess thats good, but you're reading what you want to read. It says "as soon as" thats to warn people who don't want to get pg again to remember contraception.

    How many weeks old is the lovely baby?

    Ahhh :o:o Fair enough.

    She's 10 weeks old now, we want her and #2 to be close in age. Hopefully :)
