You aren't out until AF appears 2b!
Just waiting for my fertile days. Time is dragging in that respect but not in others. Need something else to occupy my mind I think.0 -
Ps Freddie I've been thinking about making pizzas all week after your pics!
Less work involved tonight, just boil in the bag fish in butter sauce, with baby potatoes and greens.
We've started BDing for this cycle. CD 13. Most fertile days being end of this week. It's amazing once that window arrives how quickly it goes so you're just left waiting again for ages.

Hi all.
Fingers crossed for all the testers here.
Not much to report here. My internet test strips and opk's have arrived
Husband seems to be suffering with a bit of performance anxiety. He still has it in his head that we can just do it whenever and it will happen. He doesn't get that, actually, the window each month is very short. I've tried to explain but he doesn't want to know so much detail. So am just trying to stay relaxed so that it still feels nice and relaxed etc. Hopefully that will help.
Homemade spag bol for us tonight

Euronorris, my hubby was like that, didn't have a clue you can't get pregnant at anytime of the month despite being repeatedly told.0

Having lost nearly 5 stone, I stupidly thought this time might be a bit easier. My cycles are definitely more regular than they were, but with one go a month, it feels very 'needle in a haystack' like.
Lots of cramps and period pains this evening, I am absolutely positive we are out - and I will come on tonight. Oh well, time to email the donor and hope that he is still OK to help us - he muttered something about taking a break the last time we met. Cross fingers and toes please all!
Happy BDing to all BDing down and to all those waiting in the 2ww - hope it goes r-e-a-l-l-y quickly for you all!

He has this romantic notion that it'll just happen after one evening of being all lovey dovey and then having sex and that's that. I'm like 'lovely as that sounds, if it's not the right time it will NOT happen.'. Sigh.
Hugs 2b - I hope AF doesn't show and you get a bfp instead xFebruary wins: Theatre tickets0 -
Hi All, my husband is the same, thought it could happen anytime and was shocked to realise the window is so small!
9DPO and not feeling as excited... bit of brown cm on cervix and feels low and soft... temp still up and feeling nausea and sore boobs/under arms.... but starting to feel AF-like... I really wish I hadn't had the potential IB on 7DPO now as I feel I've given myself false hope... but you never know. Will still test if no AF by Saturday.

Hi everyone,
Would it be ok if I joined? We have been TTC now for 5 months, just heading into month 6. I'm 32 and dh is 42, this would be the first for both of us.
I was on the pill for years before coming off late last year. Cycles seem to have settled down to 29/30 days apart from one weird long one when we were away on holiday! I use opk' s and get positives on about day 16/17 so hoping that's positive! I tried temping but found it tricky because I sleep quite lightly and wake up a fair bit.
Fingers crossed for all those in the tww, this TTC lark is tougher than you think it's going to be!0
