    :beer:BIG Congrats Mincepie! :j:j

    Please rub some baby dust off on me please! :)

    poas last night.... no bfp for me. although my cycles range from 26-29 days and it was only cd27 yday. just couldn't help myself.
    told oh that we cant test till Friday, cause he gets impatient and then go and test myself too early! ooops! :naughty:
    So, I'm on knicker watch today.....

    sophiasmum - my oh likes to know in general if we're in the right "zone" but if he knows when ive just OV then he says its too much pressure!

    firefly - have a fab holiday

    twinpig - today is not sunny her in the midlands :( At least im at work though, and not at home

    Teamlowe - Congrats on the house news. All you can do now is get everything lined up for your solicitor and just wait it out. Keeping fingers crossed that itll be a smooth and small chain for you!

    Kalama - ouch! how did you not notice that?!

    Good morning ladies!

    Congratulations Mincepie, great news!!

    Congruatulations on getting your offer accepted TL - exciting times ahead.

    Cd17 and 4dpo here as i got a peak on my fabulous cbfm on cd12 so have assumed i acutally ovulated cd13. Am quite hopeful this month as we dtd cd7, 11, 12, 13 and 15 so fingers crossed for a bfp on 18th May.

    I've been feeling a bit guilty recently as a couple of cycles ago I decided to act as normally as possible during the 2ww to stop me obsessing and getting so upset on cd1 and annoyed that i'd gone without things for 2 weeks and still wasn't pregnant etc but i have been drinking quite a lot of alcohol recently.

    We went away for the weekend last weekend and also had a couple of dinner parties. It's my birthday this week and we are going out quite a bit etc so i have been drinking perhaps even more than a "normal" week but i am in the 2ww. Does anyone else drink alcohol during the 2ww? I believe the egg doesn't actually implant/take any nourishment from me until 10dpo +, is that true? Obviously i will stop drinking the moment i find out i'm pregnant but i don't want to not have any drinks over my birthday celebrations and then find out i'm still not pregnant as i would then start really resenting the whole process :undecided

    I have stopped going on the flabelos machine again (which I love and was helping me lose weight and feel better)

    My husband is as keen as me for a baby so is tracking my cycle too. We discuss my cbfm results and the sperm meets egg plan etc and dtd at the right times as much as possible (even if that's not necessarily the most romantic time) and he asks when we will find out etc. He's even been looking things up on the internet which is good. I really feel for you ladies with less co-operative partners who struggle to dtd at the right times, it must be very frustrating!

    Hugs to all of those that are struggling at the moment and let's hope May turns out to be a good month for us all.

    ps Oooh fingers crossed for you sjlou!

    What day do you normally think you ovulate on?

    Hey Claire
    Just not sure - came off the pill and had period almost as normal.. Few days of high bit no peak on cbfm.. 2 nd cycle - just lows.. Then period 9 days early!!!!

    This cycle (3rd) - lows upto today!!! Got two bars today!!! Yippee

    So will try to encourage hubbie to dtd later :-)

    Think I was just getting over worried

    Hugs to all who are feeling down,

    Sorry to read results not great becca xx

    Babymad - Don't get stressed out! I tried to not drink in my 2ww for the first few cycles, but it wasn't always convenient, and tbh I don't want people to notice and be on baby watch when we're only trying and not actually pg yet.
    So, I've kind of relaxed, I'm not getting drunk but letting myself have a glass of wine if we're out for dinner or a couple of pimm's in the sun on bank hol monday!
