    The baby on the conceive plus is the most off-putting thing ever. I know I want one, but don't want a baby staring at me while we're doing what we need to do to conceive one. Hardly discrete. I binned that as soon as it arrived.

    Yeah I binned that too. Honestly what were they thinking?

    Time to Deal - so pleased you've had some positive news. I've only just joined this thread but had been reading for *ages* so have been keeping my fingers crossed for you.
    AFM - no news. Still no + on OPK - not sure if Saturday's was as it was fairly dark but only thin and not as dark as the control line. Also didn't darken quickly... I'm on the CBFM trial so maybe that will help me to decide when I'm ovulating!

    Hugs for those who the witch have caught or who just need one (())


    AFM CD 33 and I flaming knew it- I got a +ve on my CB OPK & my DH went away this morning & isn't home until Friday!!! :mad: We DTD last night and I'll obviously be pouncing on him as soon as he walks in the door but very peed off that we wont have any other chances this cycle. Trying to look on the bright side that at least I only got to CD 33 rather than too much longer as was going mad waiting for *something* to happen! I am trying not to worry too much that this will happen every cycle as he's only just started this job in February & if it continually interferes with our Baby making plans I will be a very unhappy lady!! (Am now wondering where he'll be tomorrow -he's a HGV driver- as maybe I could meet him?!) ;)

    P.s. does this mean tomorrow I'll be 1DPO?

    Thanks ladies, don't know what I would do if I couldn't talk about this stuff here- friends & family in RL just don't understand how I feel :(

    If you got your opk positive today chances are you'll ovulate today or tomorrow so doing it last night is your best bet, but if you can meet him somewhere I'd go for it! Maybe you can find a £29 premier inn lol?!

    Ladies I love you all, don't know what I'd have done without you all this time x x

    Had a great night watching Finch perform the album What It Is To Burn, which was released ten years ago so part of the soundtrack to my teenage years with my dearest friends. But straight in front of me was a lady who had the casual punky but stunning look down perfectly so was jealous of her and then she turned to the side- perfect little baby bump. Couldn't stop staring

    Also had my very first jagerbomb. Not pleasant x

    I've had a jagerbomb too. But only ever the one because it was disgusting.

    Becca can I be updated to 1 dpo please when you do the lists. Never thought I'd say that again :D We didn't BD last night because I just couldn't be bothered but we did the two nights previous.

    Thanks for your reply Claire I'm hoping we're still in with a chance :o Will call him in a bit & see what the chances are of meeting him tonight ;)

    Had a very emotional night and have been feeling tearful- this is the month last year that I got pregnant (didn't find out until the April though), keep thinking what "should have been" and how unfair it all is. Don't want to whinge as I know there are lovely ladies on here & in RL who have been through similar or much worse but sometimes it gets too much to bear. What if it never happens again for me?! I know I have to stay positive; hoping this emotional rollercoaster is just made worse this cycle by hormones which may I add, if I wasn't tracking my cycle I'd be thinking I was pregnant as feel sick, needing the loo more etc!! Damn body & hormones!!! Off to watch some funny videos on youtube to cheer me up!!

    Oh & please help ladies- I have an obsession with phone apps regarding my cycle- think I have at least 5 & of course they all tell me different things but I still look at them out of interest! I think I'm going to start a journal/diary thing alongside my OPK and then I can whinge in there to my hearts content and stop wasting my time with apps that are only based on "average" cycles?!

    Hope you all have a lovely day xx

    Emylou rather large hugs, sometimes I worry that my mc is going to turn out to be the only time I get pregnant :( but it's not been anywhere near long enough for me to give up hope yet

    You could use FF- you don't have to track your temperature with it and you can use it to track symptoms throughout your cycle which may be helpful for you to see patterns and maybe see if there are any pre ov symptoms you get x

    I echo everything TL said! I feel the same too. I'm putting myself under massive pressure to get pregnant before the due date in July comes round I just can't help it. I keep thinking this isn't right, why an I trying to get pregnant & going through the frustration of waiting for ov etc when I'm supposed to be 6 months pregnant now?? I feel like I'm in a board game where I was close to winning and then got sent back to the start.

    Get rid of all the apps except FF. You can ignore the predictions but its useful for keeping a record.

    Big hugs to Firefly for CD1 :(

    Welcome ejecoms! :wave: I'm not a fan of these hard-to-remember names, got to think hard about what I'm writing! :p As for the CBFM, the second month I used it I had highs for ages and got a peak on the 8th/9th stick just as I was about to give up! I get my peak around CD17-18, CD12 is still early so I wouldn't worry, what are your cycle lengths like? :)

    Sorry you're stuck with an awful long cycle Sapphire. When I came off the pill I had some mega cycles and felt like giving up. I did lunaception for a few cycles which halved the time, it may be worth a try? :)

    Well done on all the BD squirrel! Hope you did OV and it caught! :)

    Sorry to hear about your bad timing emylou, so frustrating when you have to miss a month due to work! :mad:

    AFM, AF due tomorrow/Friday I reckon. :o Not overly bothered TBH. :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
