    Morning all. Finally managed to post as have been beyond busy the last wee while.

    Skintchick, many hugs to you, I have been lurking and had everything crossed for you!

    Bezzyk - congratulations! lovely to see another BFP! :jThere are many others I've missed as well - Aida I think - congrats!! :jI may not be able to post too often but I do read! Whoever else i missed I'm sorry but congratulations too and I'm sorry i can't remember your name.

    Lilymay - I second the Colin Firth attractiveness appreciation - I think I started that appreciation when he was in Pride and Prejudice even before the wet shirt scene!!! :D

    Wooo - MV!!! Good to see you! And LL! So many names I recognise from before.

    Well i'm currently day 26 (thanks QQ - i get my days mixed up) and no idea when OV was. I had a positive OPK at day 14 so presumably some time round then. Have had some light bleeding since then (TMI alert - only when I wipe, not enough to go on a pad) but its bright red so thinking AF is on her way. Sigh - AF has been totally mixed up since mc - wish it would go back to the way it was - at least it was predictable!

    Am I right in thinking CD1 will only be when I hit a heavier flow? Hoping so otherwise my LP has dropped from 14 days. For those with much more knowledge than me - how short does the luteal phase have to be before it becomes an issue?

    Nephthys - think that as long as lp is 10 or more you are ok and yes don't count cd1 until red flow.

    Skintchick - huge hugs honey

    Tealover - our bodies do like to keep us guessing which is ****** annoying! Hugs and I hope af stays away.

    Afm - cd9 today and high on cbfm and sometime for regular bding :D

    Skintchick - big ((hugs)) Really hope next month will be yours.

    We are aiming for every other day BD this week, last night DH couldn't 'complete' - this happens every month at least once or twice and I end out being really upset about the whole thing, even though I know it's not his fault. I feel like I am trying lots of ways to not put pressure on DH or to make it fun and not just baby making s e x.... but.... sigh.... it still doesn't happen!

    Anyway, no sign of impending OV so I don't think it was a crucial opportunity missed.

    :mad: I just want to go and pick up a pregnancy in Tesco and put it in the trolley. (and I'd pay the extra for Tesco finest..... you know, worry-free, problem-free, healthy, and with no stretch marks.... )

    Hugs, skintchick. I'm so sorry things didn't turn out the way you wanted :(

    Congrats Bezzyk!

    I think I may have missed ov when I was bleeding last week as my temp was quite high then and has been right down for the last few days. Oh well.

    Oooo, Colin Firth :) DH knows the only man I would ever leave him for is Colin Firth :rotfl: Defintely try to see Pride & Prejudice if you've not already lilymay. I have sat through all 6 hours of it on several occasions (I think it was on Watch or some such channel recently so maybe worth looking out for when they show it again)

    Well, I have an awful dilemma this morning. I've had a text during the night from someone telling me they've lost their baby :( But I don't know who as the number isn't in my contacts and they didn't say in the text. I know 4 or 5 people who are pregnant at the moment and all are past the first trimester :( I don't know how I can tactfully ask who they are.

    BigBird - That's awful :(

    Skint - big hugs. New Cycle, new hope :) We are all here for you.

    Tea Lover - fingers crossed.

    Lots of cramping for me today, almost certain AF is round the corner

    Sorry to hear your news skintchick I was sure you'd be posting a BFP soon..

    Congrats Bezzyk and welcome to newies!

    I seem to have delayed ov this month, maybe due to taking EPO. Im a bit annoyed by this, as we have had some well timed BD for what would have been my usual ov date, and I feel like Im coming down with something now so don't know if Ill have energy for more BD in the next few days.... :( Will keep using OPK and see if I ov tomorrow FX

    BigBird thats an unlucky dilemma! Let us know how you figure it out

    That's really sad news BigBird, why not call the number and try to work out by their voice who it is, they'll probably appreciate a quick call to say you're thinking of them right now anyway.

    I've lost count of the number of times I've watched the whole Pride and Prejudice series, I love it! And I love Colin. And his wet shirt. :p The man at the top of my 'I'd happily leave my OH for' list is Hugh Jackman though... :o

    I'd love to pick up a pregnancy in Tesco, especially if they did double clubcard points with them! ;) My old manager used to ask why she couldn't just order a baby in a hamper from Fortnum and Mason, they seem to sell everything else! :rotfl:

    ETA: I keep forgetting to say that I love everything you're making Tink! :D
