Softcups

[Nessicle]

well my sofcups arrived today just opened then and they look huge lol

Is there different sizes i really did not hink it would be so big.

now to work out what to do with it.

aww bless they're not that big hun! Squeeze it between your forefinger and thumb together and that is how it is inserted! Best thing to do is go on the softcups official website there is a demonstration video there.

It's like inserting a tampon you will be surprised how well they fit!

Thanks vannessa off to try video now.

 

[Nessicle]

You're welcome! I would recommend getting a few practices in before you start the seriuos softcupping

Still sick with the damned sinus infection! Grrrr! Annnnd I have been getting some on again off again AF cramps in my left side! She's on her way I am sure. She's due in 4 days! Maybe with me exercising more now, she may come early! Grrr!

How is everyone?

Yomo... And everyone else.. have you seen this?

The great sperm race.. Its an awesome documentary and has about 6 parts to it.. But one of the things they specifically said was that waiting too long to ejaculate does not=super sperm.. In fact it can be bad because it will let out older/weaker sperm into you.. Every day/multiple times a day isnt great either because it doesnt give the testes time to make new strong sperm.. They say every other day/every 2 days is best..

Hope this helps! Maybe you should relieve your poor OH LOL

Hey kita i watched that last year when i fell pregnant with kaden, it is amazing, and when u think about the journey the sperm have to make, its a wonder how they reach the goal, with all the obsticles that are put in there way...

Hey ladies how are we all? i didnt come on yesterday the weather was beautifull!!! Ross is convinced that his "men" have done the trick and i wont see my period, i try to tell him that i ovulated like 2 weeks ago lol bless his cottons!

Were having trouble with kians bum and his pooh, ever since he was a baby he has suffered with constipation but the last few months have been dreadful, we were at A&E with him other night because he cant pass his stools and he screaming and crying on the toilet, hes got cuts inside his bum and it stings him to pooh and it bleeds, so hes had laxative and now he got the squits! i hate seeing him like this, its been going on for ages now, they said to smother with sudacrem and if it dont get better he has to see a specialist im worried about him.

Hello ladies,
I hope you dont mind I am still lurking about!
M2K- to Kian. I hope it gets better. Have they said anything more than going to a specialist? perhaps try changing or adding to his diet? bless him

Kita- that documentary was awesome- I recall watching it with DH and when he saw all those people dressed in white as sperm he was like "oh look they have women too" I guess the dimwit thought only male sperm existed as males made them. DOH!

T4N2- my sinuses are went to pot this time too. I think it is one of my preggo symptoms. I used to get it real bad and had to be on steriod stuff but after my ectopic I stopped it all and it got better when I changed my diet. However, this cycle it has got noticeably worse.. I hope it is a good sign for you. As are the cramps. Keeping my fxd.

Ness- how are you honey! I hope you are well..

Seems pretty quiet on here at the moment. I am kinda in limbo as I dont want to go to any other preggo sections as I dont want to jinx anything. so I hope you dont mind if I hang around. I do of course understand if you want me to take a hike LOL

Morning Ladies

Hope you are all well, Well had our first try with the softcups last night and so far so good.

Bank holiday here today so we are all off, typical could have had a long lie but i have been wide awake since 7am.

Would love to go out for a nice lunch or something today however OH has announced he is off to play golf so think i will get stuck into the housework and we will get a takeaway in tonight and have an early night.

Hope you all have a good day and Happy St Patricks day to you all.

Perhaps we will have the luck of the irish on our side this month.

Takecare x x

Morning girls!!

Sorry I've not been posting much, theres never anything fun to report waiting for ov lol

M2k - aww poor Kian, my friend's little girl had that too when she was about 2 1/2 she was in agony, it resulted in my friend having to help her out by pulling it down poor little thing! Can you add that Fibresure thing to his diet or would he be too young? I'm not sure what the age is when you can have that but they sell it in chemists and supermarkets and it's odourless and tasteless.

Min - course you can stay here! I'd be disappointed if you didnt how are you feeling?

Hope Bella and Eve are ok, not heard much from them lately!

Julie, hope the sinus infection and cramps are a good sign! I get sinus infections quite a lot in winter so know how painful they can be!

Afm.....well CD5 already!! Just gearing myself up for ov, need to go and get some more opk's beginning of next week, think I'm due to ov around 26 March so will start opks around Monday 22nd. Me and OH had a quick 'sesh' last night - we hadnt had sex since last Tuesday just cos I felt exhausted all week and then obviously AF came - there were so many swimmers shame there can't be that much every time you around ovulation lol

xx

 

[Helly]

Morning all!

Kita - thanks, Ive not seen that before!

M2K - my cousin is going through the same thing with her 5 year old, it makes me feel sick to think of young kids in pain like that , hopefully the squits will get him level again and let his bum recover a bit, I'd imagine 5 days or so of that would allow the cuts to heal over. Poor little love.

Hope everyone is OK, I should get crosshairs tomorrow so 2 dpo today, time for the torture that is the 2WW.

 

[Nessicle]

Oooh Helly GL for the 2ww!! I don't envy you lol - the good thing about waiting for ov is that you don't have anything to worry about, you can have a drink and eat sushi without worrying whether it will do any damage lol

I'm dreading the 2ww this cycle

 

[Minimin]

Helly- fxd for you for the coming days!
Ness- thanks CD5 already! I think your plan to every other day is good. Are you ok otherwise? I will keep you company on your 2ww!

I'm good- still resting and waiting for my second set of blood results to come this afternoon. still pretty tired but boobs not as sore anymore

Planting all my seedlings this week- in the hope I can have vegetables this year! Thats about as exciting as my day goes- I am resting tons atm.

M2K- hope K feels better honey!

 

[tryforbaby2]

Thanks Ness and Minimin, it would be lovely if I was/am pregnant this cycle. I am dreading ttc more and more as I approach the next cycle.
I had a dream last night I poas (like I always dream about, poas) and, of course, it was positive but the test screamed/alarmed me that the positive result is invalid!!! LOL Oh geez!
M2K, I hope Kian is feeling better!
Minimin, I dont know about everyone else but I would surely love your company still! I am sending you lots of sticky baby dust!
Ness, every other day sounds perfect!!!
Kita, thanks for that video, I have never seen it!
Helly, the 2ww huh? lol Try to keep busy!!!!

CD29 11DPO and I still have my sinus infection, some af cramps, boobs are getting a tiny bit achey and my CM is watery and CP is high and soft. Same story every month! Lmao, well beside the sinus infection anyway!

Off to the and off to the gym, then housework and grocery store. I feel like grilling tonight, what should I make?

Enjoy your morning/afternoon ladies!!!

 

[Nessicle]

Thanks Min babe! Yeah I'm good bit stuffy so thinking a lovely cold is on it's way! For some reason at the moment I'm missing Mark like crazy while I'm at work lol I see him every night! Other than that, gonna go for a swim tomorrow night and thena nice meal!

Good girl for resting, you need to do that as much as poss! How's DH been with you today? xx

 

[Nessicle]

aww Julie I know what you mean about dreading next cycle and I'm only on cycle 3! God help if it takes me longer lol!

Yeah every other day this cycle, we've tried the every day thing and that obviously didnt work so will try the every other day!

 

[laura6914]

Cat i hope K starts to get better soon. Bless his heart. i cant imagine how much pain he is in, not nice.

Hey Ness, Every other day will definitly improve your chances. Missing mark! I know how your feeling. Im having one of thoise days to. Really missing Phil but im not going to see him until friday now as he is away with the army on guard in London.

Hope your feeling ok Min and you should definitly be relaxing.

[Nessicle]

Thanks honey! Hoping it will help! We've alredy tried the 'at it like rabbits' test which failed us so hopefully this will work!

Aww bless you I bet you miss him loads! I'm lucky I see Mark every night - if anything I should be sick of him

Not heard a sausage off Eve hope she's ok!xx

 

[laura6914]

[Minimin]

I hope eve is ok too.
How are you Laura?
DH came with me for bloods this morning. I asked him if he wanted to and said it was only a blood draw and would be ok if he didnt want to. He came and is being ok since. The first we have spoken since Sunday night. I did tell him he cant be stressing me out like that and he started the "yeah but..." route and I had to shut him down immediately.

Awww Ness- I bet you miss Mark- your hormones might be kicking in our bodies are amazing things!

T4B2- grilling- nice- I'm a veggie so I would say lots of veg and I looooovveeee corn on the cob! Yumm!

Dunno what we are going to do for dinner- may try home-made pizza as I have tons of ingredients to use up- but that requires me getting off my but and making some dough downstairs LMAO!!!

Ness- did you say you are also out to eat tonight?
Mid week fun I say!
