    Definitely, congrats QQ - its's better than a + or a sts! I haven't dared to get on the scales yet, but when I do, I will be weighing myself in lbs only, because my brain can't compute that!

    has anybody been watching Claire from Steps on living, re her battle with food. I swear she is my TWIN!

    One last quick question - if my temp is still low in the morning, or shall I be taking it throughout the morning too (or will it not read it properly because I've been moving about etc?)
    Once you wake up, the temp climbs so you can't do that:o

    Oooooo - and I just remembered something. Normally around ovulation I feel a pain (mittleschmerz or however you spell it!) - is this the eggy making it's way down the tube? Im trying to work out also, if I feel this, if it's not work trying.....
    Mittleschmerz can happen before, during and/or after ov, so it's not accurate. I had a serious mittleschmerz once, and thought my follicles has definitely burst, but found out on the scan next day that they were still in tact:o Seems I get them before ov.

    If you are feeling this way, why not book the insemination?

    I'm trying to remember if it happens exactly around ovulation, I'll keep an eye out for it and monitor it more closely - I think I can feel something now, but now I'm wondering if its in my head/I'm thinking about it too much right now!

    Still waiting to hear back from the Donor about when he can do on Sunday. Thank you for your help QQ and Kaemi. Fingers crossed!

    Until we started TTC, I had no idea what they were - they were just pains roughly around the middle of my cycle! :D:D

    I did a stupid thing and accepted lots of baby stuff from my sister as little man is over a year old now. The spare rooms looks like a nursery already ... all we need is the baby!

    Hi everyone,

    Hope all ok!!

    Thanks again QQ!! I am thinking of going out for a nice meal somewhere and then telling him but when I don't know, am still thinking to myself its not real so not sure i'm ready to actually say it yet! I bet that makes me sound awful!! I felt like 18 months was forever but its really not that long at all!! Mr friend from work tried for over 5 years and then at second attempt at IVF fell pg with twins. I just know that you will get yours soon!! Well done on 1lb!! You only wanted to lose 5lb if i remember rightly so thats really good!! Thanks for saying I can post on here!!

    I've had some spotting today so am really glad that i can post here as i can't talk to anyone in real life. I'm a little bit worried because I did quite a bit of exercise last week (having started diet etc!) and having thought i was out was really going for it!! Also (TMI alert) we BD'd this morning, OH will be shocked when he finds out it was for fun and not because it was the right time!! :rotfl:

    Thank you all for all your lovely messages yesterday and today!!

    So sorry Moneysaver12 and Claire16c for AF, huge hugs!!

    So sorry to hear your AF messing you around still Flee!! Don't give up!!

    Tinkwings your not at all a bad person for feeling upset, I must have had 15+ people / friends announce their pg whilst i was trying, like it was so easy!! People can be so insensitive!!

    Hope you can get your donor to come early 2ba3c!! I've got everything crossed for you!!

    Hope you have a lovely holiday Trixietoes!!

    Congratulations Fannyanna - 3lbs in one week is amazing!!

    I've got my fingers and everything else crossed for you Rebekah!!

    Hope everyone enjoying the weekend and SBDTA xx
  • 2ttb3 - youve done so well to keep it in so far and not tell your OH - I dont think I'd last 2 mins without blurting something out!!

    I have done 2 ov tests today and I have had the faintest line on both of them - I was sooo excited when I saw the first one so I hope its correct. If it is its a bit weird that it all seems a bit too textbook - very strange - never thought I'd be like that!

    I came off the pill a few months ago and ever since my cycle has been really regular (every 30 days pretty much exactly).

    According to all the online diaries OV date is either tomorrow or Monday so to see a faint line appear today is pretty much spot on!!!

    BD booked in for later and tomorrow!!! OH is very happy!!! :rotfl:
