    Hi All,

    I'm new to the tread - been lurking a while, a bit nervous to post in case anyone rumbles me in real life! Anyhow, details as follows...

    VickyV (34) TTC#3 since 6/14. CD22, 4dpo

    Think that's everything!

    Doubt I'll have caught this month as DH had 'performance issues' (i.e. managed the act but couldn't get to the final scene, so to speak) on the two most fertile days. :-( TMI? This has never happened before, has anyone on here had the same thing while TTC. It's my first month temping and using OPKs so that may have something to do with it!

    Hope you feel better soon Lulu.

    Hi Vicky and welcome. I try not to mention timing etc so didn't tell him when we got positive opk just try and do it every other day throughout so he doesn't notice.

    thanks wendz - need to go on my lunch soon but feel so sick! only had a yoghurt this morning.

    Welcome Vicky - hope you're not here for long! My OH doesn't get timings so I don't tell him. Bit miffed that I feel so ill as I would be DTD later to keep with the every other day lark - he still thinks that's too often!

    Thanks wendz and lulu (hope you feel better soon!). Mine thinks every other day is too much - and I thought that men couldn't get enough! :rotfl: I think I'll stick to every other day, I was until I did the opk and panicked! Tried to bd 2 days in a row and no go! Oh well, you live and learn. :(

    I know, it is wierd isnt it! I read the tip when i was reading SMEP, and thought i would try it for our second month of TTC. I was actually amazed at how much difference it made to my CM, and clearly given the BFP, it didn't do any harm!:D

    I have some!! Bought it last month but was a bit inconsistent using it so I'll wait til my smilies then get downing the stuff :) Thanks for letting us know it worked, I don't feel like such a weirdo now taking it!

    Sounds so familiar ! the pressure does not help them and I thought it was only us. so glad to hear it's not. I thought I had no chance this month due to similar issues but apparently once & a bit early does count (sometimes). Back off to the less than 12 weeks thread now !
