    I'm all for tempting fate! The month I concieved DS, I was convinced we'd not BDd at the right time and so bought myself a CBFM. I was all set with my sticks to pee on for my next cycle and then AF never showed... ;)

    I'm hoping I'm tempting fate by starting TTC now instead of waiting til the end of the year - hopefully if we start now I'll catch fairly quickly, whereas if I waited it'd take a while. This makes sense in my little world, anyway :p

    Maybe the acupressure has got things moving Tink? So everything is ready when the time comes.

    Egg collection is done:cool:
    They collected one mature, one almost mature and 7 immature ones. I just need ONE!!!

    DH is here until Sunday, but I'm following him on Monday:cool: No BD until next AF (infection), but I suppose we could do something (with protection) in the weekend:shhh:

    If any eggs makes it to blastocyst (just before implantation), then they'll freeze it for later cyclesfingerscrossed.gif

    I'll tempt fate and return with DH before I get the blastocyst results:cool: I'll have to come back in a week with a new airline ticket if I want to get the eggs back in me next cycle:p

    colli, amazing news! Congratulations!!!:j:j:j
    Codemoneky, Morocha and Twigglet massive hugs for AF:(
    smiley_hug.gif
    Hope you'll find your gym bag codemonkey:o
    TTC40, that acupuncture sounds good:)
    As for the list on the first page, I'll leave them all there as they sometimes comes back to report their BFPs and I like to see their details:o
    Tinkwings, lovely bunting, I love that pattern:T
    vesper, so sorry for your loss:(
    ChocolateIsLife, you don't have to do OPKs twice a day, only do it when it starts to show some line:)
    Aida, that's a definite +OPK:cool: Get BDing!:j
    As for testing twice a day, I tend to have negative at 4pm but positive at 11:45pm:D

    Here's one where I did many at different times, +OPK at 11:45pm on the 17th:
    155rqma.jpg

    If I did an OPK at 4pm on 17th and 18th, I might have thought I didn't get a +OPK:cool:
    Kitten_pie, hello there:wave: Lovely to hear you and your baby is doing well:)
    mishkanorman, how are you?:wave:
    Squirrles, I know, once you tell someone you are having trouble conceiving you'll get endless suggestions. Mum keeps giving me tips as well, put a sea-horse under my pillow, don't think the clinic we are going to is good, I should go to a clinic where so and so got pg 30 years ago...zzzzzzz And that was last week.
    Nicki,
    I thought your post was well put, I haven't read Moneypenny's posts as it's deleted now.
    After years of TTC, I don't get offended by newbies getting pg on their 1st TTC these days:o
    Tea Lover, I think FF is basing your fertile days from your past charts? Could we have a look at your chart please?:)
    tattoo, I keep my feet up for about 30 mins after BD:cool:
    emsbet, glad you are well too!:wave:
    lilymay, good luck for you job, hope your DH catches your ov:o
    *BigBird* welcome back:wave:
    Tinkwings, (((hugs))) re acupressure:o
    fannyanna, any pic of the baby clothes?:)

    That all sounded technical and confusing but I have everything crossed for you.

    I've just been looking online to see if there's a picture of the sleepsuit I got. The only one I can find is one that someone has taken to sell theirs online.....

    http://compare.ebay.co.uk/like/320866284305?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar&cbt=y

    I got it because I thought it was so cute and my heart kinda broke a little (yes, very corny). It's supposed to be unisex but I think it's more suitable for a girl then a boy. But I'm not fussy about gender. I'll take whatever I can get - in a non baby stealing way ;)

    I also tempted fate and invested in the VIP Fertility friend and as soon as I did that I got a BFP that month. Would recommend it just for the tempting fate.

    Ditto. I actually went even further than that; I paid for VIP FF membership, bought a Mooncup at £22, and I got 30 OPKs from Amazon.

    I have used about 15 OPKs. I have an unused mooncup in my bathroom (which I'm very much hoping will be 'too small' to use in the future), and I can't work out how to make FF into a pregnancy tracker (I think it may be a big con), so I've got that ticking away in the background too.

    Still, I got my BFP :)

    I didn't think it was because of infection. I was always told no sex between EC and date of testing just in case there were uncollected eggs that by chance fertilised. Whilst this sounds fantastic, you might end up with multiple pregnancies you certainly weren't expecting :eek:

    If you can guarantee your contraception is 100% I reckon you could squeeze in a bit of sexy-time :D

    This is my first chart - that's why I'm confused about how it's chosen the fertile time... but then most of life confuses me these days :o

    Am going to attempt to post a link... *tries hard to be computer literate*

    http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3c11ea

    Grr - I've managed to put the link but it doesn't look the same as when I look! On the calendar bit where you enter data it's got a light green square around this coming thurs, fri & sat, and a different green square around sunday.

    ETA - now it doesn't work at all! I give up lol.

    Sorry about that, I tried my best to make it plain English:p

    Maybe I should tempt fate by buying something for the possible baby:think:

    Condoms have tendency to fall off in our case:think:
    There are other ways to have a bit of sexy-time too:p
