Yes please sneak, I'll miss ya.

As for them being for eating... it depends. I can't take credit for the receipt, Tishymouse developed it in her laboratories but as I understand it, one could have to resort to slurping too.

Journal update: Haven't secured a CBFM so I'll get on it later in the month and get it for next month when maybe I won't need it anymore

is all but almost gone and I've been popping us both full of vitamins.

As a side experiment I've decided we'll try go to sleep at 22:00 for a week to see what no sleep deprivation feels like.(Well to bed at 9, to sleep at 10 to be more exact.) I've seen a 60 minutes (not the sort of thing I usually watch on account of being far too leftist for my taste but still) report on chronic sleep deprivation and apparently anything under 8 or 9 hours a night is that. We usually get some 6 or even 5 or sometimes 4 hours a night and apparently that can lead to all sorts of nasties from weight gain to difficulty in conceiving. We'll try and see if it's even doable.

The expected O day that I will double check with temping and triple check with OPKs is the 10th (I think, can't recall on top of my head) so we're going to start rabbiting on the 3rd and keep on keeping on till the 17th. That's the plan now.

And that my dear, sounds like an excellent plan.

With my shift work sometimes I get shocking sleep hours. Could explain the 10 kilograms I still need to lose..hmm? Think it will work if I blame that anyway? And not the chocolate icecream concealed under a bag of beans in the freezer?

Good luck for this month!!
I'm wattttttttcccchhhiiiingggg you!

In fact, according to this study, the reason WHY you're packing a piece (of ice cream) is because sleep deprivation inhibits leptine production and as a result you are hungry more often.

Thanks for the GL wish but to be fair I am far more relaxed this month. I don't want it to the point that I'd attack someone with a plastic gun right at the moment to get it. I guess it will change once I enter the TWW but typically this has been the case with anything I've ever wanted like crazy. (From houses to career moves to men ) Teeth clenching determination the second I set my mind to do it followed by "F this!" and then "oh okay, it would be very bloody nice but we'll see" and it's not till I stop thinking of the water gun that it happens. So we'll see

hiya, sounds like you've been having a right laugh in here the last couple of days. I also have '!' OCD!!! Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Maybe you shouldn't have uttered the words count, sperm and low while he was driving - they tend to get quite sensitive about that little phrase! They don't worry if its our eggs, but question the slightest possibility that it might be their sperm and whoa camel, prepare for a war!! I gently suggest to my OH that he might not want to have the laptop on his lap and I think I'm getting through! Slowly!

Enjoy your BD'ing, it sounds like quite a plan this month!

Ah sleep deprivation! The bane of my life. I have no idea why we do it, it's not like we HAVE to stay up!!
Take last night for instance, we went to bed around 3.30am and got up at 7am. As a result i have been a total biatch today. I'm going to make sure i'm tucked up in bed by 11pm tonight Stuff the bd, i can't be bothered

Thanks ladies.

Journal wise: almost one with the UTI antibiotics, tomorrow morning is the last. I hope this too will help. After all having an infection and making a baby don't quite go together. Hopefully it's all clear after.

How do you like my new ticker? It's there to keep me AWAY from sticks. Think it has any chances of working?

No chances of BDing before the necessary date and in as far as he knows there may well not be any on the schedule either (he messed up and volunteered for some neighborhood association without consulting me so now he thinks he's on probation.) It's a bitter-sweet but fun new carrot to dangle "Yanno honey, after all my work I'd love to proceed as scheduled but we can't well be trying for a lil'un while you're acting like a baby and are not yet a responsible adult..."

I did stuff him full of vitamins though so I'm afraid he's relaxed a tad. So no BD tonight.

Little does he know that if women were to ever wait for men to fully grow up it would have ended with Adam and Eve.

WOOT!

Got a gyn appointment! Next Friday at 9 a.m. Pretty fast for the Swedish medical system. They claim she speaks English and she's nice.

It was an awkward conversation to book it though:

Okay so what's the problem?
- Ummm none?
No, really, do you have irregular cycles?
- Nope
An infection?
-No...
Are you pregnant?
- I wish
A-ha! So it's a fertility appointment!
- If you want to call it that... more like a stamp of approval plus TTC chat appointment please.

And yet a third update today:

Looks like being cross with the mister helps TTCing! He just found and bought a CBFM and tests to be delivered tomorrow and sent me an email with the receipt and "I love you so much" as the only text!

WOOT again.

I hope no one is still reading this. For your eyes' sake! LOL
