Good morning folks:wave:

Gemmzie, how is your DH?:(
TeamLowe, your goal for 26 sounds brilliant:T
atton, people tends to get erect nipples before AF due to water retention:o Could still be pg ss, but no SSing
Birdie, sounds like your eggs are ready to pop soon, good luck:j
Elsie, your temps doesn't indicate ov, perhaps it is about to?
teaandcupcakes, not everyone gets ewcm, but it can help the spermies swim. Are you drinking lots of decaffeinated drinks? One needs fluid to produce fluid (same goes for men).
Glass of grapefruit juice can thin cm, as with cough syrups without decongestant.
Squirrels, (((hugs))). Men can be like that. They don't seem to get that one needs to BD in the 3 day window, or no baby results. DH gets disappointed when AF arrives, even when he didn't BD when I had Peak CBFM (tired, can we do it next week?):mad:

squ1rrel5 - totally! I think there's a few of us on here who can completely empathise with what you've said there. It drives me mad sometimes that I'm always at the drs having some stranger rummage in my foofoo, taking all sorts of pills that make me feel sick and dizzy, haven't had a proper drink for months, haven't even had a proper cup of tea for weeks and he can't even be @rsed to deliver the goods at the right time.

I'm starting to think I'm going to have to literally draw him a picture of the menstrual cycle - no matter how many times I (and the FS) explain things to him he just doesn't get it.

QQ - just noticed you have me at 4DPO. That's what I thought too! Glad you agree with me as FF doesn't seem to believe me lol.

Morning ladies, just had a catch up on here and I was thinking the same about Ewcm and then realised I drink hardly anything!!!

I've put my last 2 AF into 2 different calculators... 1 said I OVed yesterday, which made sense because from Sunday to Monday I had a twinge in my lower left back and could not sleep for anything last night!

But the second one says I won't OV for another 11 days!! Don't kn

Had a 'heart to heart' with the OH last night - it's been bugging me how little we get to BD and seeing as we are officially ttc it just doesnt feel like it!!
I sometimes feel like a fraud when I go to the doctors about my PCOS because, yes there's a problem but perhaps I'd actually be pg by now if we actually BD'd enough!!!

I'd been trying for the last few days to instigate but no joy, so I broke down last night and let out all my pent emotions. He talks more than me about how much he wants a baby but I still dont think he gets just how 'big' this is and the hard work that it will take. I was annoyed that I was the one going through the struggle of losing weight, becoming healthier, popping pills, weeing on sticks, missing work for docs appointments, being poked and prodded when I got there, and having numerous blood tests as well as trying to make the effort to BD! He doesnt have to think about anything else except BD'ing yet he seems to find it too much effort to do that sometimes!!!
I seemed to have go my point across without both of us getting too upset but we'll see what changes in the next few days/weeks.
TBH, we do have a lot to think about in the weeks up to our wedding and that is priority at the moment but I wanted to change his mind set before we go so can we try for a honeymoon baby at least!!!!! :-)

Sorry for the long post - just wanted to get it off my chest this morning as it was quite emotional last night!!!

squirrel - I had this chat with DH a few times (usually when I am having a good cry because AF has arrived!). I agree with the above that we def do most of the ttc stuff ourselves and our OHs have little else to do but BD, but one thing we realised was that DH needed more of a heads up than 'Im ovulating today or tomorrow, lets get on with it'. He actually asked me to mark it on a calendar so that he knew to get mentally ready I guess

Anyway, like msrj28, from this month im taking a more relaxed approach - temping was useful in that I know I ovulate CD13/14 most months so now we just aim to BD every 2/3 days and more freq if possible the week pre ov. I go by EWCM too though thats a bit hit and miss as it varies so much month to month..

anyway, at least you are communicating, worse would be to keep it all in and be stewing on the inside.. :rotfl:

Gemmzie

QQ - He's not good, poor guy doesn't get ill often so comes down hard and turns into a big child. He's still insisted on going to work though as he refuses to call in sick, so he'll be in a heap again tonight. FF has me down as ovulating today - typical!

TeamLowe

QQ can you change my age on the front page... X x

I've done that many times, but he still doesn't get it:mad:

What does your body tell you?

I usually tell him in the morning to get ready for tonight.
I can't give him earlier notice than that:o
