Hey Molly, Holly and I visited a park with ducks, this is what those ducklings in your sink will become...

 

[HollyMonkey]

Ooh look at that fancy new avatar Kit_cat. I think you need a government health warning with it though "The abuse of alcohol can damage your feline's health"

, you WILL NOT be only cheering us this cycle
You are one of us - POAS and symptom spotting

 

[HollyMonkey]

Ooohhh Exciting developments from The Lab this morning... It's going to take me a mo to get the results processed and published, bear with me....

 

[HollyMonkey]

I hope you all like a bit of TMI my dears...
So, this morning I did my saliva test- there was some ferning but still some pebbling too.Then a bit later I went to the loo and discovered a mystery CM...was it residual ? Or was it EWCM? It seemed very stretchy for sperm Only one way to find out- UTM! So Under The Microscope it went!
A part of it was undefined matter-possibly sperm or a patch of hostile CM. But most of it was enormous fertile ferns, see pics below! That last non-fern pic is the "sperm/other" part of the sample...My body is preparing...

 

[HollyMonkey]

And while I'm at it, here are today's saliva results...What were you saying Moominmumma about men thinking we turn baby making into a science rather than a chance for more nookie?! I can't believe I studied Art and English, I think I missed my vocation there. I should have gone into Fertility Research studies

Wow...that's really interesting but I do think you are a frustrated lab technician!! Those are some mega ferns as well......that 3rd brick is inches away now.....

Hello ladies!

I'm still alive, did you think the KGB had got me? Yesterday I had a lovely surprise, OH met me from work and walked home together and spent the evening cooking russian meat pastries, one of which looks like the Virgin Mary! We DTD, and I've had some mittleschmerz last night and today. Unless I get a positive OPK we'll give tonight a miss and then go for Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun and maybe Monday if I'm not really sore!

I love the duckie photo Hollichka, does Holly 'get' feeding the ducks? Alex loves it, he says BAP BAP BAP all the way to the river, which means quack quack quack.

Right now I'm browsing eBay for a cheapish Playstation 3 for OH's Christmas present.

 

[Sarachka]

You've taught me so much, Holly. I had no idea about ferning, or that children's microscopes were so good!

 

[HollyMonkey]

You sound like you've been having a lovely time with OH Sarachka, sounds well timed too
Oh yes I love my stepson's toy microscope- he's always asking me what I'm looking at; when it's saliva I tell the truth, but I think if I told him it was fanny juice and he told his mum that then she'd get the French child protection agency straight round to come and arrest me. It would be the window of opportunity she's been waiting for for years. So I say it's rabbit hair, or rain, or whatever comes to mind
If you look at fresh you can see live tadpoles darting around.oh well it's better than French television.

I did wonder about the KGB...The Cystitis Corps of the KGB at least.
No Hollichka (love it!) doesn't 'get' feeding the ducks yet. She observes with great interest and laughs when I do duck impressions and tries to eat the bread herself, but I'm sure the same things would happen if we were standing by an athletics track or a roundabout rather than a duck pond!

I agree Sarachka, I had no idea ....
Well done Holly and don't worry, we don't mind TMI as we all are a bit .
for both of you

 

[x-ginge-x]

Teehee no they don't use CBFMs and OPKs i watched to make sure and holly thats some fantastic ferning you got there, retrieved my saliva microscope from behind the drawers last night and started temping too! I am determined to make a baby this cycle! Even if it means OH is not allowed to touch me on a morning until i've done my science stuff! is here properly today TMI...i'm actually leaking now do I count today as day 1 or yesterday...was only pink twice when I wiped yesterday so do I count todays red flow as first day of my cycle?!

 

[xMissxZoiex]

Thanks for the brilliant laugh!!!
Well, we bd twice yesterday and I'm priming dh for another go tonight...sure I'll really have to twist his rubber arm No smiley today so hopefully we'll catch the girl sperms in the 12 hour-post-o window

So I'm officially in the symptom-spotting-2-week-madness, so here're my symptoms:
sore boobs (been sore since yesterday so they don't really count but I'm determined to keep you all entertained this month)
sore body (too much athletic bding)
irrational paranoia that the chemicals that I mixed for the gardener to spray on my sick orchids are still on my hands and will stop conception (look like a crazy woman constantly sniffing my hands!!!)

...now where did I put my lovely huggy white jackets...

 

[TrinityMom]

So its confirmed i have an Angel

So sorry
If it's any consolation, I conceived my oldest son the cycle after my mc
