    Afternoon all

    firstly sending out huge hugs to those who need them and I would certainly endorse any of the wonderful inventions mentioned earlier on in this thread.

    I'm having a bit of a good news/bad news moment but I am choosing to see it as a huge positive as I have been really worried that I am somehow "broken" from so may years on the pill. Stupid I know especially as I've only been off it for a month.

    Good News - I got a positive OPK for the first time hooray! Ovulation ahoy! (hopefully).

    Bad News - Hubby is working late this week so no chance to BD

    I'm so happy about that OPK though I almost don't mind if it's "wasted" this month, as it is only our first month of trying and I don't want to put too much pressure on OH.

    Also when should I be considered past ov? Still getting used to all this stuff!

    What CD are you on lily? Remember sperm can live up to 5 days in you, so even if you don't ov for a few more days you could still catch the egg.

    Also the sperm wont wash out of you just because you go for a wee :)

    I'm on CD15, and I have a 27-day cycle so just thought it would be here by now.

    Guess that sounded like a silly thing to say, but basically it always seems to stay on the outside of me if you see what I mean, not sure if DH takes it back out with him almost. :o

    On a different subject entirely, I love the sound of your prawn toasts! Will have to give them a go! :D

    Mission aborted for us :( It aint happening so I am probably out for this month. So gutted.

    Think I'm going to have to take a step back from here for my own sanity.

    I'll lurk and if things get better will hopefully join you again.

    Why is it when you're scheduled in for a well timed BD, your DH does something to make you really narky so you then get in a mood with him, which then sends him in a mood with you and even though you try to make up there's no way that he will want to DTD because he's still sulking!!!! :eek:

    Good vibes - glad the doc was nice and your OH is ok about doing the SA.
