Aww kitkat, that would have been scary. So glad your husband is alright now. I'm not sure what the recovery time frame would be for something like that.
Lavienrose, yay for Af arriving :D
Fingers crossed for you Rosie.
Daisymoo, I did have to use the temp corrector yesterday due to needing sleep from nightshift the night before last. But, I had a temp drop and it went back up again this morning :) I didn't answer all your questions from last time. Yes, my temp going up is a good thing. Hopefully my temp did dip yesterday which is a potentially positive sign. Hopefully my temp stays up now.
As I mentioned to Daisymoo, so far my temps are staying above the coverline. I had a temp dip yesterday. I'm hoping it was an actual temp dip as I had to use the corrector. Temp went back up this morning, 7dpo. This is day 4 of sticky and eggwhite cm. Supps or not, I'm usually dry at this point.

Hey ladies. For anyone craving cake, I made some yummy things last time round using either grated courgette/zucchini, carrot or applesauce instead of any fat. I also put in slightly less sugar than the recipes stated and they were yummy. Really kept the cravings at bay!
Loving the cake chat and thanks for the tip weezie!!
Boysway hope those temps stay up what a great sign!
Kitkat you deserved that treat hope your DH will be ok.
Lavie yay for AF!! So funny that we have all been celebrating its arrival lol!!
I am having a great time and am very relaxed just wish I could fully let go and not think about getting PG/ dieting all the time. OPKs are getting darker and I can feel activity going on in that area so that's something. My body is getting loads of vitamin D and I'm not exercising and eating more than I have been. Every now and again I worry about it which is stupid, I'm on holiday! Anyway I have a massage booked tomorrow morning so it all helps I guess. Very confident I will definitely ovulate this week.
Just dug this out from last sway:
Just made some yummy chocolate chip muffins that work out to be 115 cals, 3.75g protein and 1.95g fat per muffin. Really good if you're craving a cake I think! So recipe:
1 cup/240ml soy yoghurt (or a low fat yog)
2 medium eggs
0.75cups/175g sugar
2cups shredded courgette
2.5cups/300g flour (I used half wholegrain spelt, half buckwheat due to food intolerances)
0.5cups/130ml soy milk (or any low fat milk)
30g/4tbsp cocoa
30g dark choc chips
1tsp vanilla
1tsp baking powder
1tsp baking soda
0.5tsp salt
0.5tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350F or 175C and line muffin tins. Beat first three ingredients well together and then add everything else. Cook for about 20 mins and try and wait a little until they've cooled before eating them! Enjoy!
Yipeeeee stephk super relaxed equals pink ....
Thanks weezie I am soooo craving sweets must be my body craving fat and sugar.
My poor dh is still unwell his appendix did rupture and he has an infection..... I was so worried about him today. Crazy !! But I am drinking pepp tea to delay ovulation figured it can't hurt. Main thing is his health and to get him home recovered then I can jump him hehe xx

So sorry to hear of your DH kitkat. I hope he feels better soon. He could take quite a bit of time to recover with the appendix that ruptured but hopefully you guys can get back on track soon enough!
Kitkat I am so sorry to hear about your dh, I hope he feels better soon.
Dr. confirmed yesterday that it is real and I am not crazy! :) First "real" appt May 16th at 6 weeks. *EEEPPP* <3

Hello everyone,
May I join you all in your ttc journey's :) cd1 for me today.
Hey Kitkat I am so sorry to hear about your dh. My dh had his appendix removed when he was in his early teens. He tells me about his tragic story about his appendix rupturing and his wound had to remain open for cleaning and healing. I cannot imagine what you hunny is going through but I really hope he heals with the least pain possible and has a fast recovery. I hope you are hanging in there too because I know us women tend to worry more than they do. I hope all is well with you and you are able to get your attempts in. I don't know why but my dh tend to get kinky when one of us is disabled. I think the thought of not being able to do it under certain circumstances turns him on lol.
Sending you lots of hugs and kisses :))

Boysway,
Sorry :( dang auto correct. Meant BFP lol.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
Thanks yogi;!! You made me smile ;) sorry you are out this month....it really is a rollercoaster ride this ttc DG
I have been quite stressed these past few days as his wound was infected and they thought he might need another op , good news antibiotics seem to be working his blood count is up!
Really been doing some soul searching the last few days I don't think we will be able to attempt this month thinking I should take a little break and come back refreshed !! Its really hard as I don't want to give up on 'trying' for my DG but I don't want to keep going for a year and still hear 'boy' any thoughts? Suggestions? Its been three attempts and 19 weeks on diet Xxxxxxx

Sorry you're out yogi Fingers crossed for this new cycle for you Hope you get your bfp
Aw kitkat it can be so hard month after month can't it? You've been on the diet so long at this stage that I reckon if you take a little break for a while that it will definitely still stand to you when you resume ttc. How could you not possibly get a little pink bundle after all that hard work!! You could always relax the diet for a while but still remain vegetarian, which will still sway pink. Plus taking a month or two out from hardcore swaying might help you to be more relaxed which definitely sways pink too. Best of luck with whatever you choose to do. And hope your dh is doing ok. :)

Kitkat a bit of relaxation might do you and your DH the world of good. You have to put yourselves first, after all you could do everything for a long time and still hear boy. I totally agree with what daisymoo says (actually I often find myself totally agreeing with daisymoo!) I really do hope your DH has a swift recovery and you make a decision you guys are happy with. You could always have a blowout cheat weekend then go veggie until trying again?
I have now started to worry about the holiday eating which is really dumb. Well it's more the lack of exercise that worries me, for the first time ever I look amazing in a bikini and now I'm not exercising and eating loads!!!! Been trying to stick to pure carb for breakfast (had lots of delicious bread and Nutella this morning!) so hoping that helps but I haven't felt hungry much so god knows how high my blood sugar must be!!! I need a proverbial slap lol. Not as relaxed as usual because DS is being an absolute nightmare - had a Thai massage yesterday tho which was amazing. Still no pos OPK but they are getting darker.
Hey Stephk Enjoy that sun girlie It's bucketing down rain here in Ireland Fab weather for May! Please do not worry about eating etc on holiday. Enjoy every bit of it. It sounds wonderful and being so relaxed will sway pink anyway. Funny that I just had a load of white toast with nutella for lunch too!! Mmmmmmmmm White toast is the one good thing about le diet! Hope that opk goes positive for you soon. I gave up testing on cd21. Had been testing for 12 days and have no more tests left and never got a positive. Will start again next cycle. I'm on cd24 now which I'm happy about as got my af cd21 last month. Stopping supps and relaxing diet has made my cycle a bit more normal (I think!!) ;)

Sorry daisy, what a bummer. I was hoping you would get a +
Boysway I hope you get your BFP this month I have hope for you!
Yogi what a bummer you are out, I heard that May is an awesome month to get pregnant though!!
AFM--I took a cheapie test and it was negative but I also took an frer and I am pretty sure I see a line. It is very faint though. I am on day three of a headache and I feel sick so I wouldn't be surprised if it is a BFP! I am cautiously super excited. I was just telling my DH I wasn't going to ttc anymore if this month was negative. I didn't want to deal with the dieting over the summer and possibly buying a house. I am going to the store and buying some meat!!
As I just said in the other forum sounds like a big congrats is in order Rosie! So happy for you hon!!! I knew it was your month! That stool sure did a good job! :)
Sent from my GT-S5369 using Tapatalk 2
Oh congratulations x
Slightly concerned it's just a false positive since it's a target brand test, I guess they have had issues with them?? Oh rats. Hoping it is really a positive! I bought a digital one at the store but it's still target brand. Wonder if i should try the second urine to test or just wait until tomorrow??
Congrats and hopefully your lines darken tomorrow. I'd wait until tomorrow on the digi, if the FRER was light today with FMU.
Rosie♡,
I hope this is your month. If it's a frer I would say give it a day or so. The tests I did this month were accu clear from target and they were horrible. The box had two and both gave me false positives. I think you are OK as long as it's not that brand. Good luck and I hope your BFP is only a few hours away :))♡
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk
It was not that brand, it is the early results target one. I also took one yesterday it was as negative as could be. No evap line ever showed either so I feel pretty good about it.
So sorry about the false positives yogi, what a bummer. Things should just work, especially when they deal with matters of the heart like a baby!
Thanks daisymoo and stephk! You are right daisymoo always has fab advice!! I think taking a little break might help my sway make me a little less swaycessive!! Good luck all I really hope we hear lots of BFP's for May. I will come back in and check on you all.
Hey Rosie sounds good!! Good luck xxx
Sent from my Windows Phone 8S by HTC using Tapatalk
Thanks Kitkat Not sure about always having good advice but I try to help out as much as I can! Do keep in touch You're great for a chat And I bet when you come back to ttc in a month or so I'll still be here!! ;)
Sent from my GT-S5369 using Tapatalk 2
Daisymoo, grrr to no + Hopefully you can get on with your new cycle soon xxx
Thanks Rosie :) Me too. Hubby as well, lol. He asks me every morning if I have any signs. I told him I think he will be more disappointed if I don't get a bfp, lol.

For those who have already read this, sorry I cheated and just copied my other post.
OMG! Add swear word here! Btw, no bfp before I continue. I took the manual override off FF and it put my ovulation as the same day I thought it was which is the day of my +OPK. WOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!! So, now I am 11 DPO :) and in for a MUCH higher chance :D :D :D
Oh wow Boysway! That's fantastic news girlie I have a feeling this is your month too! Fingers crossed!!
Sent from my GT-S5369 using Tapatalk 2
Yay Rosie and Boysway!!! Everything crossed for BFP news from you both very soon!!
Daisymoo you are very helpful and always have fab advice, thank you! Sorry you haven't had your positive yet.
