    Claudette- I find all the OPK's tempinf, maybe baby, checkinf for changes in CM etc, all a bit bamboozling. Mind you, if someone told me that a slide rule and a bag of M&M's were the trick, I'd probably try that too! lol

    Kel & Mez- I'm really glad someone brought that topic up! We were DTD every day for a about 10 days each cycle, but it was too much pressure and it was painful for both of us. I guess becasue we all feel like it's a task we have to do to get pregnant, the enjoyment and passion goes out of it after a few days! I might just pop out and find that book, Mez, we're coming up for o sometime over easter...

    Julia- I wonder why the iodised salt? I'm going to google that. DH and I also use my predicted o times, and my own obs, before we start DTD ever night. We've pretty much got it narrowed down to 3 nights now, and that's more manageable for us! GL this cycle, looks like you, me and Keli will be TWWing together again!

    Bye for now!

    Hey Julia, Thanks for the info on Maybe Baby, yeah think I will just stick with what I am doing as that “seems” to be working most of the time. As for DH having performance issue, thanks for sharing, it’s really good to know we’re not alone in all of this. I was really dreading sending my first post of the day this morning and I have had such a great response from you all that I am now feeling soooo much better and feel that I can tell you ladies anything. So thank you. Also thanks for the info on the iodised salt, do tell more when you know more but in the mean time I will look into it myself. And yes I too have been looking at Menevit for DH, not sure how he’d feel about it but if they think it works we might have to give it a go.


    Hey Bec, thank you to you too for sharing your thoughts about the issues with our DH’s. Poor things, I think the pressure really gets to them sometimes, more than we think too. I really appreciate your honesty and input into this topic, I am feeling much better about it just knowing we are not along. GL over Easter.

    AFM: Well have done another OPK today and finally I have a +ive, so I’m thinking that I haven’t O’d yet but will do over the next few days, back to DTD then, woo hoo.

    GL to everyone coming into O time, yes Julia & Bec I think we are going to be 2WWing buddies this month.

    I check out the iodised salt thing, and I'll I found out about it is that it can help with thyriod problems when pregnant and is often used to ensure that women don't become iodine deficient when pregnant.
    Never heard that one before. Guess I'll try it along with my slide rule and M&M's...lol

    Night girls!

    Hey Ladies,

    OK so I think I finally O’d last night. Got a +OPK yesterday and then had really bad O pains last night. We DTD (successfully) last night, yippee! So with any luck this will be our month, but we will DTD again tonight and maybe tomorrow night just to make sure, as my temp hasn’t gone up yet but that happened last month too, temp didn’t go up for 1 day or so. Anyway, fingers crossed.

    Hey question, when you get O pain does that mean you are O’ing or that you are about to O? Does anyone know?

    GL to everyone coming up to O time!

    Hi Keli

    Yay for Oing!! My FX for you.

    I have no idea about O pains. I used to get them for about 3 days so I'm not sure if it meant that I was O or I was about to or I had just finished lol.
