    If that's normal signs of Ov, then that's me today!


    Trying to hint to other half about having a nice relaxing bath together, it's not working.

    See this is your mistake. I got so fed up of not dtd because DH was "tired" or wanted to play computer games or whatever and not picking up on my gigantic hints that I used to just say "I'm ovulating. Do me then you can go back to sleeping/playing football manager". Or something to that effect. It was all very romantic.

    And, yes, I get grouchy, and spotty and a bit tearful. So not very sexy.

    Ha except I tried that as well. His answer..... ermmm well its your scan next Friday so we can't do anything this month. What on earth has an ultrasound scan in a weeks time got to do with dtd? So I tell him that he's mistaken (not in those words though). and that I may be ov today. His response then. oh well we'll have to make sure we dtd early next week then
    He's obviously being completely dumb tonight and making me even madder. He knows all of this, he has been told all week where I thought I was in my cycle (going on normal months). Seems like he is ignoring me now.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    Mrs d I'm no dr but its great you have a daughter, just must be very frustrating to be having trouble ov this time around.

    In a strange way I'm used to the bleeding, well to some degree atleast. It's pretty much always been a prob for me.never ov and a womb lining that grows far to quick,even to quick for the injections to keep up with.

    Code, that's just like our conversations.

    Me: think I might be ovulating, crack on so I can do something else
    OH: can give you 5 mins then I'm watching the football.

    Last time we DTD the cat was asleep on my feet the whole time, shows how much effort we put in!

    And they say romance is dead.

    Ha. Well he's gone for a nice bubble bath, when I asked if I can join him, got the answer 'you can have the water after me' oh how romantic, his grubby bath water.


    I don't think I could do it infront of one of the ferrets, they have a habit of starring at the best of times, plus the one that runs around the house doesn't like me and gets all protective of hubby.

    I think I scared the waiting to ttcers. They were talking about being scared of getting their implant out so I told them in great detail about the HSG. Including the lovely mesh pants they gave me. :rotfl:

    I think you have been very informative about it Code, well on here at least, I don't tend to venture on the waiting to ttc, or ttc threads.
    The FS said that it is most likely that a HSG will be my next step after the Ultrasound.
    I always thought the first time I had an ultrasound would be to see a baby, and instead my second one is to see why I am not having a baby, (first one was to see what was going on with my liver a couple of years back, which resulting in floods of tears for the same reason)
