Trying for a Baby Part 7

RazWaz

Hi everyone, do you mind if I join you? I've been wanting to start TTC for a couple of years now but I've been sick for a long time, I had surgery last month which (to my surprise) actually worked and I'm now cured! So I'm really looking forward to diving in and getting started.

I think I'm about 4-5 DPO at the moment but not 100% sure as that is only based on EWCM, does anyone know where the cheapest place to get OPKs is?

More EWCM this morning, no BD last night and off on a business trip now, back late tomorrow.

Sigh. He'd better be up for it tomorrow night!

When we started ttc I knew there are all sorts of reasons why it can take a long time but never imagined that lack of BD would be the issue.

Please can I now request delayed ovulation vibes instead of conception vibes?!! I will be locking DH in the house over the weekend if necessary!!!!

I get mine from Wilkos - can't for the life of me remember exactly how much they are, but they are super-cheap for a pack of 5 and have had no prob picking up LH surge for me.
Lots of people buy in bulk from Amazon though, that seems to be the cheapest way.

Good luck!

Morning all! Lol mrsj28 - sending delayed ov vibes your way _party_ (supposed to be a wizard)..

Hope you catch it, this month id been using my new cb digi opks and checking my cm, and the ONE day i would have got a peak and the one day I get EWCM, we have a proper barney and there was no chance of BDing ( Did manage to get one in after but looking at cm I think it was a couple of hours after the fact

Oh well, if we do get preggers it will be a girl as we BDed 2 days before ov..why does it have to be such a small time window and how on EARTH does anyone ever get pregnant!

Welcome razwaz, I used to get my opks from eBay, very cheap, but am now using clearblue digital opks as the cheapies didnt work for me..

Thanks for the vibes and I love the wizard! I am with you on that one - how on earth does anyone ever get pregnant?! Seriously, it is a total mystery to me!!

TMI alert: I have the most EWCM I have ever had. I just had to share that

Hi RazWaz, welcome! :wave: I buy OPKs from Amazon, the brand is 'Home Health'. I haven't found them always easy to read so this month I am trying out Clear Blue digital OPKs which I got on ebay, but they are much more expensive.

Congratulations Maire!! :j

Welcome Niknok and Razwaz - ooh they're fun names to say! :wave:

Going to start sleeping without my eye mask tonight but don't really know if it'll make a difference as it fell off again last night. Grrr.

I was lucky to get a kiss last night, never mind BD! OH seems to forget that it is possible to have a kiss and a cuddle without it turning into anything more, and it's like he's so scared of having to BD that he refuses to come anywhere near me in case I jump him!

Morning ladies.

Another high temp this morning so I think I'm 2DPO but I'll hold off saying for definite until FF gives me crosshairs - so fingers crossed for tomorrow.

Will be glad to get into the 2ww just so I don't have to bother trying to get OH to BD for a bit. He annoyed me so much last night I don't even want to speak to him, let alone get busy.

Hello to all the newbies.... promise I'll try and remember names soon lol.

TTC40 - Hugs hope you are feeling ok this morning

Welcome newbies wishing you a short stay

Needles day for me today I hate cd1 & cd2 just feels like climbing the hill all over again.

dH looks like elephant man the whole side of his face is swollen & he can't open his mouth to bite food.

Busy day sewing today as I have a fair on Saturday

Have a good day xxxxx

((tinks)) yuk needles!

I'm so glad it's not just me struggling to get OH to BD! Sunday was the first time in a week and I was amazed when he was up for it again last night!!!! Shame it's not at the right time. I didn't realise it was so common.

This cycle is now hugely long... AF vibes my way please. Don't think I'll ever be so pleased to see it!
