to want to tell someone I might be pregnant?

I don't want to tell anyone in RL. I don't want a baby now but we would be fine.

I just wanted to say it out loud. Which I didn't. But typing is okay too. :)

...that's it, basically.

Ok :)

May I offer tentative congratulations (Just because you said about not wanting a baby right now)? Or is that not appropriate?

Oh, CheerfulYank! I didn't expect your name when I clicked on this.

Have you tested yet?

We're here for congratulations or hand-handholding. Thanks

No it's fine. If indeed it turns out I am, I will be happy :) But I'd rather not be, to be totally honest.

I have a seven year old and a 16 month old. Even though I didn't it feels like I just had a baby, you know?

We did/do want more, but I was thinking of trying in the winter or early spring. Trying to shift this weight.

Hey you, long time no chat - it's an old friend in a new (temp) coat :)

Pregnant huh... sounds good to me. I'd love newborn snuggles so feel free to FedEx the baby over to me - I'll send photos back Grin Flowers

Of course you'll be OK if you are - you can always tell B Dog to watch Peter Pan and put him on Nanny duties Grin

Hi letter! I haven't tested yet, I will if o don't get my period in the next few days.

I certainly don't feel pregnant but I don't feel like I have PMS either. Confused Usually one day month I feel like life is terrible and DH and I are headed for divorce Blush and then I get my period the next day or so and think "ohhhh..."

I don't know. By my reckoning I'm about five days late. When would I have conceived? I don't understand how it all works which might explain a pregnancy

Woohoo!!

I will raise a glass for you if it turns out to be true, Cheerful Wine

You would have conceived 12 to 16 plus perhaps three days ago, plus the five days you are late, unless I have completely forgotten everything about these matters, which is entirely possible.

Congratulations! I fancied getting pregnant in the winter/spring due to my weight...fell first bonk!

DH is over the moon, I'm a bit more apprehensive!

Hope you get the result you want Grin

Still no sign of AF.

Shit. You guys...shit.

Still, I don't think it's possible given the time frame. Confused

I feel terrible but think I'm.just coming down with something.

PAOS. Only way to know for sure.

Tentative congratulations from me.

Another tentative congrats. At least another baby is on your future plan - sometimes the blighters just like to pop along a bit earlier than we expect is all.

Fingers crossed whatever the outcome you are a cheerful Yank.

DD's birth was rather brutal and still fresh in my mind. :(

DH has the audacity to be thrilled at the thought.

I'm terrible with my dates but we went on holiday last month at this time so I know for sure that I'd just finished my period this time last month.

Sigh. I feel very strange and ill right now. I'll just keep babbling nonsense at you all :)

I'd love a baby. But...I feel like I'm going to be fat forever if I don't take a stand now.

Thanks for the tentative congratulations :o On one hand I think, I'm so silly, I can't be pregnant and AF will come tomorrow and I'll feel ridicilous.

On the other hand I feel v late and strange.

It's not as though you don't want more lovely, snuggly, new born babies! It's just a little sooner than you planned, a little sooner, that's all! It's a good thing. 2 years between DD & the next one would be lovely wouldn't it?

There's plenty of time after this one (if it's even one!) to lose some weight if that's what you want. You can still eat well, not cram too much Cake in or whatever & keep exercising

Hi Tired! How're you and those gorgeous boys?

I think DH and I want different answers at this point! :). Oh well, what will be will be and all. Thinking of running to the drugstore for a test after the school run...so about four hours. Sigh...
