Too many to chose from...,

Yeah it is each month and seeing ohs face when he sees the tampons come out, he's got it in his head it's him that's the problem just cause my blood results came back ok but they won't do a sperm analysis yet I've said it doesn't mean it's him just Cos those bloods came back that I was ovulating xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

So no how you feel. Even though I knew we weren't trying we were still disappointed when AF arrived every month like even if I was a day late he would be like you could be pregnant, & it's so exciting :/
I know you can get those sperm test kits from boots but I'm unsure on how accurate they even are.
If your both actively trying every month I guess all you can do is wait.

How long would you have to wait before they would take a sample of sperm?

 

[holli]

I'm not actually sure if I'm honest, we've tried dtd every day and every other day and still not caught yet, I had a positive test a few months ago but then I started my period a few days after which was very frustrating, we both don't eat junk or smoke or drink (I can't any ways as I'm Celiac and have issues with my liver) and oh is very fitness mad it's annoying when druggies get caught in an instance xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

Oh really how confusing.
It really is, so many unplanned pregnancies these days & it's unfair on couples that actually want to start a family.
See my partner does smoke , but he has cut down from a pack a day to around 5 a day now so I can't really argue with that he's trying bless him.
I take vitamins but not sure how much they actually do tbh. Have you tried anything recently vitamin wise?

Both me and oh was on the pregnacare conception his and her pack and apart from making our wee bright yellow they did. Nothing and they was like horse tranquilisors to swallow - massive is not the word lol! I'm on folic acid which I've been on since trying, I've starting eating kiwi and I drink pineapple juice, im not very good at swallowing tablets at best of time- should see me trying to swallow paracetamol oh just wets himself as it's such a performance lol, I can even put them on spoon of yogurt I swallow the yogurt and the tablet is still in me mouth I'm like a child lol! Quite a few ladies on here take 75mg of aspirin but I'm not allowed it or ibuprofen as I'm illergic to quite a lot of things, i have to have special gloves for work (I'm a carer) as I'm illergic to the vinyl and latex ones it's fun being me some times lol xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

I take those ones too the pre conception ones! Ha ha I get what you mean, pee is illuminous yellow!! They taste awful aswel..the things we do to ourselves ay?!
Yeah I've heard the aspirin thing too only recently though might try it next cycle & see what happens. Can't harm to ty I suppose.
Ah bless you Hun ha ha it's not all bad surely. It's good that you eat healthy fruit & veg are what the body needs. Good for your mind & soul ..apparently ..don't quote me on that though
Xx

 

[holli]

Yes I do not miss the taste it lasted a while was really rank, I eat more veg than oh but he's more into his carbs to bulk so he has a lot of pasta and chicken for his protein, how old are you if you don't mind me asking? Xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

Yeah that's not a bad thing though , I am 26 & my partner is 28. What about yourself?
Well af due tomorrow or Sunday.
Don't feel pregnant at all..urgh just no it's gonna get me x

 

[holli]

Im 31 so getting older
How you feeling now? Fx she will keep away
I'm sooo tired didn't sleep much due to period pains tonight's shift is guna be interesting I feel sooo tired xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

Ah that's not old at all. Is this your first you child are trying to Conceive?
I've had a nap after finishing work this afternoon, woke up & my boobs are even sorer I know she's coming. Well 99% sure even though that 1% chance I've still got to cling on to.
How are you doing? First few days are always rank aren't they, you just want to curl up in a ball all day. Ha ha bless you I hope it's not too much of a slow shift for you.

I use the cheap OneStep ones off of Amazon. I usually start around CD10 as I've been known to ovulate early. I tend to do in the evening after work (about 6pm) and then add in a morning one once the evening one is almost positive just to give me an idea of the surge. I find mine tend to stay positive for about 12-16 hours. I've also found that my period will come 14 days after an OPK. Sort of helps me prepare for it as I will know if I'm late. Sadly this has never happened yet but it's the main reason I still bother to do them.

 

[holli]

The patients are certainly keeping me on my toes tonight that's for sure I feel like pulling my hair out roll on 8am! But then I'm back tomorrow at 8pm not what I want when I'm on me blob I really do suffer first few days oh always says he wishes he could take it away or him have it bless him, yeah it will be our first baby we are ttc doesn't help that I'm not the only family member to not be pregnant or have children and I'm sick of the same question "when you having kids?" I wana head butt them half of time lol but I just grit me teeth and smile
I hope it happens soon for you moomingirl, how long you been trying? Xx

 

[BeckyBoo6747]

Yeah I can imagine it's pretty hard work, my sister is a carer too she does enjoy it though despite the hard work it must be worth it.
It's not nice being a female at times, I'm dreading it because the first day is always the worst for me, have to sit at my desk with a hot water bottle at work. Ha ha! I know exactly how you feel. I have 3 other siblings, none of us have had any children & 3 of us are all in long term relationships. Hope I'll be the first to bring the first grandchild into the family.
