  • Well thanks facebook. I just had an ad pop up on facebook telling me that 'it's never to early to plan your hospital bag with everything you and your new baby will need'

    I'm pretty freakin sure that it's too early to plan my hospital bag right now.

    I have been getting so many pregnancy adverts on Facebook, and adverts for young kids!! It's like, RELAX FACEBOOK I'M TRYING!!!
  • Congrats Sunshine!

    Despite thinking I had it all sussed, I'm absolutely baffled this month! I'm CD16 but not seen any ewcm yet and I have no idea what's going on, so annoyed cos I've not been doing OPKs, thinking (based on prev months) that my body would let me know, grrr. :o

    Not done much BDing this last week anyway, but am planning a romantic night tonight, fingers crossed it works out (the romance, have no other expectations this month!).

    Sorry about your reaction Dotty, I had something similar a couple of months ago and it was horrid!

    I'd really appreciate any advice about OV pains/movements, I think I may have felt something, but have no idea if it's actually that or if I just have trapped gas!

    LMAO snowball, I always have the same thought. All I can say is when I feel ov pains it is really obviously to one side or the other, idk if that helps at all!

    CD16 today. And I'm going to say I'm 1DPO. Bit of a guess, and I might be two days after, but don't want to get all excited thinking my AF is late when it's actually just due later.

    I have a feeling the next 13 days are going to drag by. I feel like we gave it a good shot this first month, though there are some things I'll change next month if AF comes.

    Snowball my ov pains are really obviously to one side (been right side both months interestingly!) and can feel like a pinching feeling if that make sense, sometimes a bit of very light AF like cramp too. I get bad gas at ovulation too (tmi sorry!), a much higher sex drive and I feel a bit agitated if that makes sense.

    I was shocked at how noticeable the difference was the first month I came off the pill. I get stronger ovulation symptoms than AF ones (my AF is relatively pain free these days).

    dottymrsp that Facebook thing made me laugh! Mine's the same! And commiserations on your allergic reaction - sounds horrible!

  • Thanks Dotty & Bluegreen! Definitely had all of those symptom, when you say pinching, do you mean sort of short, sharp twinges?

    I was sooooo bloated the other day, surprised no-one offered me their seat on the bus!

    Oh well, looks like I've missed it this month, doubt we've BD'd enough, lesson learned though, I'll make use of the big bag of opks next time.

    Happy Valentine's Day everyone! x

    Finally updated the list! And I actually got BD today!!

    Discussing ovulation pain with OH atm, as I've been casually mentioning "this pain I keep getting" so I think he understands that the pain = we should be BDing!

    My friend had her baby on Thursday. It hit me very hard.

    Hope people are testing or BDing tonight! As for me, I'm off to the shop for more booze!

    Well no valentines BFP for me. Witch showed up on Friday 13th. So currently CD2 and lying down clutching a hot water bottle. Glad we didn't have any romantic plans as I just feel rubbish.
    Congrats to marmite and sunshine.
    Hope the rest of you get plenty of bd'ing in!!
