    Welcome Dizsiebubba!

    And what a week Scottishchick and it's not over just yet! Congratulations!

    I watched OBEM last night, didn't find it as good, but than it's hard to compare after last week's highly emotional episode! Jess just annoyed me but the other lady was just so chilled.

    OH is feeling rough today, I ordered him to stay on sofa watching telly all day, he really needs to recover asap. I ended up sleeping in the sitting room as he couldn't breathe through his nose and he was just tossing and turning. Felt quite guilty especially as he called me 'traitor' for leaving him on his own but than I'm at work today and I really needed my sleep.

    Still high on CBFM, when will I get a bl..y peak???

    We called out Pest Control and he came yesterday but down Bait & traps. We heard movement for about an hour last night then it stopped. My neighbour came in this morning to say that she had lots of movement in the early hours :eek: She has the same pest control person so he is working on both out spaces.. :o Fingers crossed they are soon dead as they are freaking me out.
    We've had the council put bait down, and OH has 10 traps in the attic. We've given up. It's fighting a losing battle. We cleared the attic, threw/steralised everything and shut the door! We're in a terrace and the problem is if you can't stop the source then you stand no chance. And we and the pest man think our attic is a run through for them as there's no nest, no food or water or holes into our house. So they're coming though a hole in the attic from the neighbours :(

    Wow Scottishchick, no wonder you're jumping up and down! A fab week so far! What have you got planned for the PPI money? :)

    Hope the rats get sorted soon Tink, how nasty! I love the film Ratatouille but even that hasn't made me feel any better about rats! _pale_

    I've paid off my credit card and booked a fortnights holiday in Bulgaria. Hopefully it'll be our last holiday as a family of three :p.

    More good news though, my best mate had a baby girl this morning so I'll get to hold a newborn baby :T and Ive got my positive on my OPK :D hopefully OH is fit for round two tonight :rotfl:

    Team lowe, what about temping so you can see when you've ov'd?

    Scottish chick, what a great week! All donations to the zippy fund all gratefully received! :D;)

    Hope the rat issues get resolved quickly ladies, I couldn't cope, I don't think, and would seriously be considering sleeping elsewhere til they were gone:o

    Dizsie, welcome :wave:

    So this morning I'm still "open", have a lot of ewcm (never seen it like this before!:o:j) - I forgot to do the sink or swim water test, cos it could be "left overs", but with the volume I doubt it :o I'll try and squeeze out a drop more of fmu for an opk before I start drinking (water!:p) for england. I really want it to be our cycle:o I've never been so sure about ov before, just had a feeling, but I think the knowing makes you more hopeful, and while I'm happy to have seen such clear signs, I also know I can't deal with much more disappointment :o

    I'm also in two minds about telling dh, I told him yesterday and he started freaking about having enough time for seeing mil, going the gym, having tea, chilling for a moment, bd and sleeping. He had good reason to, we only got back from visiting mil at 9 :p but tonight he's going straight from work to see her, so I might try sneaky seduction when he comes home, then the rest of the night he can do as he likes! :p;)

    Hello,

    Can I join you ladies please?

    I am TTC #2 (altho it is my husbands #1 - my little girl is nearly 6 now). I came off the pill for my 30th birthday at the start of november :o) But no luck so far. :o

    This will be our 3rd cycle. AF is due on saturday/sunday and I am hating this waiting period the most.

    Lasy cycle I really thought I was pregnant and got my hopes up, so I am trying not to make the same mistake. :o

    Must say I am feeling quite down with it all which I know is silly becuase its only been a couple of months etc. But I kind of feel like I have waited so long already for a sibling for my little girl. I know my previous relationship breaking down obviously delayed matters there tho!

    Anyways, hopefully it will be nice to chat to other people in the same position as me, as my poor hubby and best friend must be fed up of my constant baby conversations at the mo! :rotfl:

    I didn't even know the CBFM existed til I started reading this thread. Are people finding it helps? I aren't using ovulation sticks or anything yet. My AF is regular at 31/32 days so far, so I have been going by an ovulation calendar and hoping for the best. Maybe I should invest in one if I don't get a positive result this month?
    :love: Married my lobster in July 2011 :love:

    TTC # 2 since Oct 2011 - good things come to those who wait :o

    :dance: 2013 is going to be our lucky year :dance:

    How long did you try for your 1st baby?

    Remember one can ov 10-16 days before AF. If you could cover those dates (every other day?) and few days extra on each side, then you shouldn't need an OPK, but it's up to you:p
