    Good luck Cara and Gillby! :D

    I'm going to test on Monday 21st, I think, if AF doesn't turn up by then.

    Having a very sex-free month this month, seeing as DH is away. At least we did it on CD10, 12, 13, 15, and 17, though, so hopefully we hit the bullseye at some point! He's home on what should in theory be about CD9 next cycle, so if we didn't get lucky this time, there's always next month! :)

    Woke up this morning with very sharp twinges in my lower abdomen, thought maybe it was AF pains but they went away by the time I got out of bed, and haven't felt anything since.

    Don't you just wish you could press a button and then 9 months later, out pops a baby?! (not that I don't enjoy all the sex, obviously!) :rotfl:

  • Evening all!

    Well I dunked the digi yesterday morning and it said 'Pregnant 1-2'!!!
    I think it's official now :D

    OH grinned like a Cheshire Cat when I showed him and then his face fell and he went white. He asked nervously, 'What does the 1-2 mean?'

    Turns out he thought it referred to the number of babies so he thought it meant twins! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I haven't posted very often but I've been reading every day for several months and I've found the support and advice invaluable :)

    Good luck to everyone - I'll be lurking to see when you all get your BFPs :j

  • Awww nice one Waitingtopost!!

    Fingers crossed for you Gillby.

    I am determined to not test until next Sunday, 20th, trouble is I have no will power and I get so disheartened if it has a BFN on it. Feeling a little different this month though but am trying really hard not to SS.

    Evening ladies!

    :j:jBFP! BFP! BFP! Congrats waitingforpost:j:j
    Loved your story about OH and the digi test! I literally laughed out loud and then had to tell hubby!!
    BB1984 hope you caught ov!!
    countrybum I've just recently started temping too. Is your chart on fertility friend?
    Gilby & Cara - good luck girls!!!
    deborah ((hugs))

    CD8(22) and Nothing to report here. I started temping today although I know I'm a bit late to start, just wanted to get used to doing it at the same time every morning. Hubby went to work and, as he got up, said - make sure you do your temperature (bless him) - i'd already done it two hours earlier :cool:

    Been doing lots of DIY today! Trying to get my double spare room done. It's been going on since before Christmas - only the cupboard to finish! Woohoo! The single room (aka nursery to be) is finished which is good and then it will be the master bedroom after......

    Hope everyone has had a good weekend!

  • Hi all

    Congrats on the new BFPs :j:j waitinforpost your oh comment made me chuckle, bless!

    Update on redundancy - have interview for the new position on offer on 22nd feb and will know my fate 24th, really feels like they are dragging it out but all i can do is wait and see i guess. Just want to get back to ttc!

    We still bd and not taking 'proper' precautions just avoiding the times we bd before, i said to oh we should be careful but he said if its meant to be it will be, we will deal with whatever happens! i got a bit emotional then.
    calamityclare :p:hello:
  • Waiting for post: just been in fits of giggles at your DH and the 1 - 2 :) congratulations.

    Well ladies, OH is due back on Thursday, i seem to be on a 39 day cycle (have been for the last 3) and am on CD13, according to fertility friend im ment to be ovulating around the 22nd, so BD asap when OH is back so when should i test? do i wait till after CD39 or can i test beforehand? Ive got tesco pregnancy tests in the cupboard waiting to be used, but i dont want to test to early but i dont want to find out to late either.

    Thanks

    Thanks Cara!:D

    No idea where i got the willpower from, but have decided to wait until tomorrow morning to test. Will be CD34 (usually roughly 31). No sign at all of AF, but this cycle could be longer than usual anyway as i only came off the pill in early Jan. Really trying not to get my hopes up!:o

    Fingers crossed for two TLP/BFPs tomorrow! Good luck to everyone else, too.
