  • afternoon all :)

    MrsJ definitely give knitting a go, i find it quite relaxing as it takes most of your focus (or all in the case of me) not to drop stitches by accident, hehe, oopsie! so you totally zone out from everything thats going on.
    Ive gto a cross stitch in progress at the minute, so i might do a bit more of that tonight.

    Ive decided...when TTC there are several things which should be banned...MC being the main (hugs to all that have experienced, i cant even imagine what it must be like :()
    the 2ww - surely by now they should be able to invent some sort of test which can tell you right away
    AF - maybe we should just keep OVing until it sticks :)
    non performing OHs - they should have a pill for that.........o....they do :)

    I honestly think that before we started ttc I thought you could test the morning after you'd done the deed and know if you were pregnant or not :rotfl:

    I couldn't agree more about the things that should be banned! Mind you at least the way our cycles work we get a break from all the BDing from time to time!!!

    Not interesting but I have yet MORE ewcm today! This is the fifth day of ewcm... we have bd'd yesterday, the day before, AND the day before, and two days before that.... I really don't think I'll be abl to convince DH to go again tonight! Am going to do another OV test and hope it's negative today (i.e. that I have actually ovulated!)

    Hello ladies :hello:

    DH went away on a charity walk at the weekend and took [STRIKE]my[/STRIKE] the laptop with him! Felt like my right arm had been chopped off cos I missed [STRIKE]the laptop[/STRIKE] him so much :rotfl:

    Have been reading along but forgotten most of it now tho - will try and remember what I can :o

    Congratulations to Niknok :j:j Have a happy and healthy 9 months :D

    QQ is a complete and utter legend. I would defo give her my last rolo :D Its a pain that ov isn't coming early enough for you tho :( I still think we need to sort out this colour indicated wee thing tho.

    MV - Hugs for what you have been through this month. I hope you are doing ok. The world truly does suck sometimes :( Hope it is your turn for a forever baby soon.

    Courgette - Hugs for you too. Its so hard TTC after losses and problems :o I'm not coping ever so well this time round and I've gotten my hopes well and truly up for the end of this month so I can't imagine how far I will have to fall if its not successful :o

    MrsJ - I don't think I have ever had / noticed ov pains before. I also have no idea where my ovary is meant to be :o You have had a load of EWCM this month - I haven't had very much :( Hope you managed to catch the eggy :D

    Trina - Definately agree with all the things on your list :cool:

    Am with all you ladies with monday sneaking up on us :mad:

    I've started doing lots of Christmas things. I'm gonna try and sell some crafty type bits on facebook / ebay / craft fayres etc. I'm really enjoying it all so far. Made loads of felt and fabric decortions over the weekend. Am gonna be like Tinkwings and try and take my mind off the 2ww with crafting!!

    Have been a bit up and down this month with the ol TTC lark. One minute I have loads of PMA, but then the next I am terrified of it taking ages to catch on again. I went shopping with my mum at the weekend and burst in to tears as I went past mothercare as it should have been such a different shopping trip (would be nearly 7 months gone in an alternative universe :o)

    I did however book an amazing christmas weekend away with DH and DD for my due date (2/12) so that will hopefully be something to look forward to now instead of dread it.
    :love: Married my lobster in July 2011 :love:

    TTC # 2 since Oct 2011 - good things come to those who wait :o

    :dance: 2013 is going to be our lucky year :dance:

    Hello everyone:wave:
    Last day to BD before DH goes away, but no sign of ov, never mind:o

    TeamLowe, I used to knit when I was pre-teen. Would love to re-start that:o
    Elsie, glad you are feeling better now, good luck for ov:j
    an9i77, no, we don't want adoption (DH is against it). It's ours or nothing. We did think about it, but decided it's not worth the hassle.
    Fluffnutter, there doesn't seem to be much wrong with my eggs, and I seem to have plenty of it. It fertilises OK, divides OK, and sometimes becomes blasto, but there may be something wrong with DH's sperm. We may try IMF where they check the sperm more carefully.

    My sister has offered me her eggs if I decide to go that route:cool:
    I think I need the whole package, her eggs and her DH's sperm:D
    Courgette, massive hugs:(
    smiley_hug.gif
    Let me know when you want to come back on again.
    Squirrel, good luck with your DH's SMT:)
    Have a nice time at the south coast:wave:
    Birdie, do you think you caught ov?
    mrsj28, yay for ov and back to ttc!:j:j:j
    Which CD are you today?
    TeamLowe, :rotfl: at 1-2 child support:D
    Don't worry about the lumps while on 2ww, check again when it's over:)
    Trina, as for the pill, DH won't go near it:o
    My FS did offer to prescribe it, but no:o
    abis, any piccy of the Christmas decorations?
    Where are you going this Christmas?:)

    Hi QQ - I'm CD23 if you count the first day of miscarriage bleeding as CD1. I think it's easiest that way for me because then FF understands!!

    Thanks for putting me back on the list. Really hope today is 0DPO and I don't get another positive OPK today!

    We're taking this month off so there'll be no catching OV for us! If we did actually get to BD this week we'd be using protection... wish OH would get a date for sample drop-off already, I'm glad we're taking the month off or I'd be furious! :p

    I'm not ignoring the kind offers of OPKs & HPTs but I've got such a stash that I really don't need any more! :)

    Good luck for no more +ve OPKs MrsJ, hope the next +ve test you get tells you that you're Pregnant! :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

  • Hello everyone :wave:

    I hope you all had a good weekend.

    Saturday was lovely and yesterday not so great (may have been a little :( after the wedding the night before....!)

    Well I see from the list I am now on CD17 and have no idea where I am! We are BD every 2/3 days and I think EWCM may have been (leftovers)....

    Am off on holiday wednesday for a couple of weeks so just hope AF stays away until I get back (or preferably never show at all ;)) but who knows.

    xx
