TTC :-)
My hubby to be has agreed to start ttc from now! After about 5 months of his deliberation and me biting my tongue not to nag him he said we could start trying now! woo! wedding due to be next june but will prob move it to late winter early spring if we are lucky enough to fall quickly. *fingers crossed* And we are moving back down to a two bed from three!
My cycles have been 40-45 days which is pants so dont know when im due to OV on CD 9 now.
Any tips from those who have ttc successfully? (Im not entering ttc yet...dotn want to jinx it!)

I also had a tip from my mum - after the 'deed', lay on the bed with your legs in the air but against a wall for about 20 mins. This helps them to swim in the right direction!
It worked for me cos I caught in the first month of trying!
Good luck!

thanks marathon bar... i do want to stay as relaxed as poss... i dunno if OH would be freaked by me with legs in the air like thast lol!
How long did it take for you to concieve Jake?

Im the opposite, I've told the oh to wait until the new yr. Saying that, i log the dates of af in my head and its a rough guide. If nothing by 1st then Im technically late - im in 2 minds.
Anyway back to you. Stay relax, if you dont get a bfp the first month, dont get yourself all worked up. Maybe you should just have sex (tmi) on your back, legs up with oh on top. Then he wont know any difference! We went for the if it happens it happens attitude to stay relaxed.
In regards to sex everyn toehr day. Not sure the truth in this. Sry for tmi, We were away and I guess had sex about at least 1 a day and concieved in teh first month.
I say relax and enjoy yourself

Cool ill get some tomorrow.... im loving pay day this month cos we are moving into a rent free place for a few months so that frees up about ??500 per month! woo!
Erm to conceive jake...one day... we werent trying. Had only been together 6 months, both eighteen. Rubbishy condoms, moring after pill...the moring after and nine months and three days later out popped jake...
But I have only had three AFs in eleven months and the cycles have been 40-45 days... I really want to fall quickly cos then my plans would work re the wedding, being due in summer holidays for college etc...
not asking too much im sure! nice age gap too 21 months.
So next question c section or vbac?! lol!
aww bet your lo would make a great big sis! xxx
apparently most women ov about 14 days before AF but of course it still varies!
Good Luck!

I dont really have any tips, I've always fallen pregnant still using contraception!

I'm very, very anti abortion (except in exceptional circumstances) because two of my children have been concived at "not the right time" and I've gone ahead with both pregnancies and love them more than anything but I understand that not everyone could go ahead with it.

I think unplanned babies are a very happy surprise, in most cases, less stressful plannign round, weddings, time of year, house move etc...when you are already preg you just deal with it!
Poor little thing..is she ok?

If you do it every day the sperm is slightly weaker as not as much is produced. Apparently.
But as we all know it only takes ONE sperm in ONE month out of billions!!! So just go for it and legs in the air!
lol at your oh's face if you do that!
i agree with the legs in the air while at it option!
lol

Good luck to you xxx
Carly, I dont know chick. Havnt spoken to her, and I dunno if its something that we should just forget about now unless she brings it up, wants to talk.
Marathon bar, every other day are you kidding! where do you find time?! ha ha no its all good, i explained about the whole ovulation thing to him... he was convinced your fertile time was the week after af...
They say you should also being having sex 3-5days before your ovulation due date in case your cycle is different and several days after.

Unfortuantely, you cant expect to fall pregnant over a couple of sex sessions a month! If you want to fall pregnant within the next 2 months you need to get busy miss!! lol! Thats what they evenings are for...or w/e lie ins!!! :P
thanks for the link hun ill have a look now...
With lots going on I suggest you just relax and enjopy yourselfs and go with teh thoguths. It if happens it happens. That way you wont have any extra stress on top of that which you may get with the events ahead of you.
