Trying for a Baby Part 8

I'll have a chat with DH about using them. He's starting to get a bit impatient too I think and he knows a new pregnancy would really help heal my broken heart. I know he doesn't like the idea of being 'used' though which is why I'd only buy them with the understanding he'd definitely shag me senseless for a couple of days once I'd had a smiley!

We've got to the stage where we know a few days a month OH is going to be a sperm provider! I's not se xy, but then as my sister put it, nothing ttc really is!

Morning ladies,

Aww there is alot of sadness at the mo... thinking of you all.

Afm, still no sign of AF (5 days late now) i'm feeling really bloated and just generally gross though so it's not far off. My longest cycle EVER ! Maybe we are catching each others weird cycles ?? I think i heard somewhere that women that spend alot of time together can synch cycles. The last week i've been spending 12 hours a day, everyday with the same women, so maybe it's that ?

We'll see anyway, if nothing by tuesday (7 days late) i'll get another test just to be sure. No ic's left though (i chucked them out in a fit of rage last weekend after a BFN at 11DPO, ttc has turned me slightly insane ! ) and pharmacy tests are expensive, the one i took yesterday was 11€ just to stare at a massive white space, ouch!

Quick temping question-
Does alcohol make it rise and lack of sleep make it fall? Had a glass of wine and went to sleep about twelve and my temp has dipped really low. Too scared to dare to hope its Ov lol x x

Pomme I'm beginning to wonder if its winter's effect, like the lunaception theory? Like thing works well over summer then takes a bit skew wiff in autumn whilst we get used to the lack of light x

Hi everyone,

Just delurking to give an update. I get an update email every morning so i'm keeping up to speed with everyone! Sorry to hear so many people are having such a hard month, I do think November is quite a gloomy time of year, hopefully next month with be better and we'll get some Christmas BFPs! *hugs* to anyone who needs them especially QQ, hope you are doing ok.

I havent been temping but have been trying to keep an eye on CM, its my first month doing that though so there has been lots of "Is this EWCM?" going on! So based on that and my FF app i'm going to guess at CD19 3dpo.

Unfortunately myself and OH have both been a bit poorly this month so BDing has been thin on the ground! Think we managed to DTD once at the right time so fingers crossed that will be enough!

Oh and it's not really useful for those who have been TTC for a while but for newbies who are just starting out and are confused by all the acronyms and tracking methods, I just got a book called 'The Impatient Woman's Guide to Getting Pregnant' and it is quite a useful and amusing guide to TTC! Well worth a look.

Jovie x

Morning All,

Hope you all get to enjoy a leisurely Sunday.:A

Teamlowe - Lack of sleep always gives me higher temps. Your body needs to be completely at rest for several hours to get an accurate bbt temp. I don't know about alcohol as I don't drink.:p

Pomme - Do you temp? Are you sure you Ov'd when you think you did? I hope its just a shy BFP.

Still no O for me but my temps are steadily declining so hopefully it won't be very late this month.

Can we please have a bfp soon?! Seems ages since our last xx

PommeVerte

Firefly - no i don't temp. But i have ewcm and ov pain on CD13 pretty much every month. Who knows ?!? Maybe i didn't ov then. I had quite alot of stress a couple of days before CD13 which i thought might have an effect, but then i had the usual symptoms on the right day.

Do shy bfp's actually happen in real life ??

Thankyou for the support ladies

Here here becca!

Definitely CD1 for me today.

Relieved actually that my cycle was only 29 days this month, so not too out from my usual 28.

Already plugged details into FF to work out when we need to get busy again.

Joy.
