    Good morning all!! Well it looks like the weather is back to its normal rainy self here in Manchester... our summer lasted longer than the 1 day I anticipated! :o

    Huge congrats to Mincepiemonster, well done on your BFP - a valentines baby - cute! :j

    Congrats to TL for getting an offer accepted on a new home... we are looking to move at some point too and are saving like mad!

    chelseablue - it took almost 60 days for my 1st period to come back after taking the last pill. I wasnt testing for ov but never noticed any EWCM. As others have said, you have to wait unfortunately x

    AFM - CD27 here... still got 2 weeks before I test, GOD its boring this 2WW... I've had the most awful upset tummy for the past few days, and (sorry TMI) went for a no2 about a 100 times yesterday... fed up of being poorly!

    Thanks to Becca for doing the lists

    Gops x

    ETA Good luck abis for you appointment today xx

    Congratulations Mincepiemonster - I have a good feeling about May :) Hoping for lots more announcements. Im just waiting for ovulation (or that's what it feels like).
    Have never told DH when its the 'right' time - do the rest of you have tactics? Do you tell or just surprise him? I cant decide.....I think he would know what I was up to anyway if I was after him every day!

    Congratulations Mincepie! :j

    Big higs Part Mouse. Hope things are better by Friday. :o

    Hope the tracking scan shows good stuff today Becca. Hope your PMA has come back today too! Big hugs! :)

    Hope your finger is OK Kalama! That's the kind of thing I do! :o I have a wonderful knack for cutting myself shaving my legs and leaving a trail of blood all over the bathroom and bedroom before noticing, OH freaks out because it looks like I've killed someone! :p Hugs/yay for CD1. :)

    Oh I missed out on making my prediction for May! 6 BFPs for me please! :)

    :j Congrats Mincepie!!! :j
    Hope some of the luck rubs off. This is also my first month of using OPKs.

    Sophiasmum - My tactic is to tell DH I think I'm ovulating and then he's more than happy to do his duty. Last night CD10 I just wanted it for closeness but he said I'm really tired are you ov? Dunno, probably not I said so that was that :( I start using the OPKs today.

    TCOD - Hope your IVF appt goes well :)

    Abis - huge hugs, hope everything is perfect at your scan.

    TeamLowe - It's so exciting getting a house :D

    firefly - enjoy your hols!!

    Big hugs to PartMouse and everyone else who needs them xx

    Congratulations Mincepie :). All the best for the next nine months

    and TL on the house

    Oh I so wish we wouldn't have been away this weekend as we did the BD 3 time before OV but I know it was too early (last time Thu morning, i.e. 3-4 days before) and then were away. Just already getting down about another month wasted. I've tried to read my chart differently but even if I OVed on Saturday it was too early. Heyho.....I guess it's my fault as even though we've been together 10 years, engaged and have DS i'm still shy about making the first move never mind telling him to DTD because I'm OV :o

    mincepie - opk's huh? I already temp but I've never done opk's, do I just pee on one each morning, and then when I get a positive, I'm likely to OV within 24 hours? I'm sure I have some cheap Amazon ones at home, but I don't want to be obsessing poas every few hours each day :rotfl:

    kalama - The more epic posts, the better :D I'm really pleased with the 4 stone achievement. I have my SIL's wedding in October and would love at least another 2 stone by then, so I can buy a lovely new dress to wear. And a new hat of course. I love hats!
    Hope your finger is ok too…… Yay for CD1!. That's the one and only time we'll yay for CD1. Welcome to the journey ;)

    abis - Best wishes again for today….. X

    goppers - doesn't the 2ww just drag! I hope you start feeling better soon and that you don't have cheapie toilet paper :rotfl: ;) I couldn't resist….

    sophiasmum - I tell OH when OV is likely etc so he knows as much as I know and when we'll be BD'ing. It's almost booked in for the right days a week in advance, lol. Both of us being pandas, I think it helps that we know that we have a week of DTD (well, every other day), and then we can relax again once my OV is confirmed by FF :rotfl:

    firefly - Have a wonderful time. Remember to bring back some clogs! Doesn't everyone who goes to Holland buy them?! :rotfl:

    Wishing everyone a great sunny day! :)
