Lookin for NTNP buddy. Just need to CHAT!

[fairyy]

Yah that's true, I get up at like 6am anyway every morning. So temping may not be that bad for me. How does the OPK thing work! Is that a POAS thing... Gotta use FMU???
What is SMEP?? And why form September? Just trying to figure out ur body still??

Ya OPK is a POAS. U have to test in between 12pm to 3pm. That's when LH surge starts in the body. SMEP is :

Start BDing from day8/10 every other day till u get positive OPK.
Once u get positive OPK, BD that same day plus additional two days in a row. Then skip a day and do last session of BD.

Then your TWW starts. If your AF doesn't arrive on 15th day starting from the day of positive opk, take a pregnancy test.

In case u don't get positive OPK at all then u have to BD every other from day 8/10 to day till day 35

I am giving DH some time to get ready fully, that's why from September.

Wow you ladies have been busy!

The best way to go about TTc is to DTD every other day, that's all we can really do!

Been the dentists today for a filling then had my friend round for a good chat first time too! She lost her baby full term last year, so horribly sad, understandably she's struggled to be around babies since loosing Freddie xxx

That's really sad for her. I wish these sort of things never happen to anyone.

 

[fairyy]

ive still got this pinkish really light bleeding only when I wipe tho no idea what it is x

Hey where are you noodles ?

Oh no.... That is horrible.... poor woman... I hope she is okay as she can be.


As far as DTD every other day... Got that down... And then some!! Lol I got me a good hubby
For me, knowing when I ovulate is more about being able to say, okay maybe not this month, lets avoid it (cuz hubby is so back and forth about it). Or just so I know when my 2ww starts and what certain pains/sensations are down there. Like i said- I don't like not knowing certain things. It's like a fear of the unknown. Lol

And yeah, where is noodles??

 

[fairyy]

See u all again on Monday. Have a nice weekend.

 

[Laura2806]

I know it really was awful for her, she was saying they think the placenta failed but can't be sure and they already have an action plan for her next pregnancy.

Glad you got the sexy time sorted ;-) yh it makes sense hun, one minute I'm like let's just have sex and let our bodies do the rest the next I'm like 'hmmm do I start temping to be sure?!' A bit confused ATM! Lol last nights OPK was about the same as the others! Yay! I'll do another later then I have one left for Sunday and that's it, I'm out of them so will let it be for now..... Haha

Noodles!!!!!!! Where are you?

Xxx

 

[noodles13]

here I am!!!!!!!!!! hahah did you all miss my incessant chatter

hows everyone doing......... I think I have decided to wait a year or so till I have the next baby my youngest wont be going to nursery till sept 2014 now as they wont let her start early aka this sept........
I was looking what bc I should use that has no hormones in and all I found is the copper coil only thing is the thought of it makes me cringe!!! and it says can cause bad bleeding and cramps ....... hmmmmmmm I cant decided maybe we should just use condoms anyone else think they are safe enough?? and the depo may of stopped my fertility anyway

I am all undecided

We did miss you!! And isn't incessant chatter what we all do on these things anyway?? That's how I get it out of my system!!! Glad I didn't scare u away!!
I actually stopped taking bc cuz of all the things it can do to you. Ur body need to just regulate itself. That's why God created us with a time that is fertile/infertile. Natural family planning. Chart and temp or whatever and find out when u r fertile and avoid BD during that time. I know it's not completely fault-free but if u use condoms too that should be a great, natural way of prevention. That's what I plan to do after we have our first. Right now we are just NTNP. So we don't use anything... Plus hubby refuses condoms anyway. Lol but each couple is different, do what is best for you. Those are just my thoughts.
I hope everything gets back to normal for you!! Glad to see u back in the thread, noodles!

 

[Laura2806]

Hey noodles!

Copper coil - hmmm, personally a no, I don't like the thought of having anything like that in my body, same with the implant, doesn't seem normal to me! And also I wouldn't go back on any pills as like mrs corny said they really mess your body up.

Condoms - no fun in my eyes! You have to stop to put them on and take half the fun away, plus you can't just snuggle and go to sleep after unless you wanna wake with it stuck to your leg!

Pull out method along with charting might be better, like mrs corny said you will find out your fertile times and pull out during, just before and just after, or pull out altogether.

After having Oscar we used condoms for a few weeks, the second time we had sex, 4wks PP, the condom caught where I had been cut and torn (no stitches) and although I was healed it pulled it back open and bled like a bitch! Not to mention it bloody hurt!

We used them for a bit after but decided to not bother and use pull out method, then we got bored and *TMI Alert* I need him to finish in me it's one of my fave bits! Lol we decided to be careful to start with then spoke about why Simon wanted to wait a while for our second, turns out it was only because he was worried I would be upset if we conceived and my wedding dress was no longer suitable, he has no idea what it's like, I reassure him being pregnant wouldn't affect my dress, he then said how much he really wants to have another baby and would love a princess, thus we started NTNP but are now pretty much TTC stress free!

Natural birth control is best IMO, plus you don't know how long it will take you to conceive number 2/3/4 etc, can take years! Xxx

 

[MrsCorny]

Laura, so glad I'm not the only one that feels that way about birth control. I actually think its a beautiful thing that natural family planning is an option.
TMI alert here: And as far as finishing, when I first stopped the pill he pulled out EVERY time. I couldn't take it and finally sat him down and was like listen- i am not fertile during this time period and fertile these days. Pull out these days. Lol it was driving me insane, to be separate during the most intimate part sucks!
I'm only 2dpo right now (if i am reading my body correctly) but I am already anxious for June 30 so I can test. This month was the first time we didn't use withdrawal every time and he finished during a fertile day, and later that night I felt what may have been O pain: quick sharp pains in lower right pelvic area, and my cervix was high and soft so this month, there is actually a shot at a BFP!! Get ready for big time symptom spotting next week ladies! Hahaha!

 

[ica235]

Just read the whole of this thread and now feel like I know you ladies haha!
Hope you don't mind me gate crashing, but in very similar situation to you mrscorny, first month ntnp sometimes pulling out sometimes leaving it in pretty sure fiancé would rather wait as our little boy is only 6 and a half months old and i can sense the panic when he has left it in lol but we hate condoms and with a sore episiotomy scar and being stitched up too tight sex is uncomfortable enough as it is! So letting nature do its job we've always said we want a short gap between them cause him and his brothers are so close and only have 2 years between each of them, whereas me and my brothers and sister have 20 odd years between us, we barely talk, needless to say I was an oopsie haha!

When are you all testing?
I'm planning to test of 25th which will be day 28 of my cycle.. Just bought some extra early test strips from amazon haha

 

[RedButterfly]

Welcome ica235

Yoh don't live that far from me. I won't be testing for a while yet. Still waiting to ovulate I think.

Get ready for big time symptom spotting next week ladies! Hahaha!

Before TTC BC was the only option for me as I didn't realise how it messes with your body, the minute I met Simon, I didn't want it anymore! Haha

Lol I'm with you there! Need that last bit! I hate it when Simon pulls out even after he's finished fingers crossed we get at least one BFP on this thread! When TtC Oscar, I started a thread and met some lovely ladies who I now still talk to, I got my BFP 3montha later, 2wks after me one of the other girls got hers and 2wks after her another got hers! Let hope this thread follows suit apart from the 3month bit!! Xxx
