Hiya,

I put August as its a little late for July!

I'm TTC number 4(!)

Due to test on the 15th August but don't think we have much chance this month as its only our first and DH has been ill for a few days and now I've got the bug, so not much romance happening!

So just wonderded if anyone is just starting TTC and wanted to join me?

Sorry Liz forgot about your last digi experience. My doctors still don't want to see you to confirm (too lazy???) - I just had to register at the surgery for the midwife. I've got my booking in appointment for 7 December. I'm hoping she'll refer me for an early scan because of the bleed last week - but if she won't I might think about a private scan.

Klou keeping my fingers crossed for you for Tuesday!

KLou111 · 26/11/2010 19:41

God, just ready this back, meant to put, that's 3 of you, and Madkatz to get hers lol

KLou111 · 26/11/2010 19:18

Congratulations Liz see, you were preggars!!! That's 2 of you, just need mine to be BFP on Tuesday, and MadKatz to get th=ers and we're a full set!!

no i have fallen out with clearblue digital, it was that which told me i wasnt pregnant last week!

i had to take dd to the docs this aft, so made an appointment for the doctor to confirm it for wednesday. 5 years ago, they wouldnt do that, when i thought i was pg with dd they said 'oh we dont do that any more, home tests are so reliable, we trust their results'

obviousley changed their mndsGrin

GruffaloMama · 26/11/2010 14:39

Liz FANTASTIC news! So pleased for you!

The ClearBlue digi ones will tell you roughly when you conceived (you can add a fortnight on to it to then start to work out how preg you are). If you're really unsure of dates your midwife will prob arrange an earlier dating scan so that they can make sure than any screening tests are done at the right time. I think they can only really scan from about 8 weeks, though, so you might still have a bit of time to wait.

So chuffed!!!

lizandlulu · 26/11/2010 12:52

thank you badgerwife does this mean i have got to wait till a scan to find out how far gone i am? as you can probably tell, i am the type of person who needs to know now Grin

Badgerwife · 26/11/2010 12:24

lizandlulu, that's brilliant! Sometimes it's better not to ask questions. Maybe it's just that the hormones took a while to do their thing Confused

lizandlulu · 26/11/2010 10:45

well, i tested this morning on a test from wilko, and got a very very faint BFP. (so faint i needed a second opinion, but no one else was in apart from ddGrin so didnt ask her!) so when i dropped dd off i went to boots and got a first response (bogof!) and that was a much stronger BFP!!!!Shock Shock so got no idea when i got pg, if last sat i was not pregnant, then this friday i am?

KLou111 · 25/11/2010 10:29

lol, I posted the countdown one on the August bus, it's very addictive x

just incase there is some symptoms w didnt know aboutGrin

lizandlulu · 24/11/2010 20:17

have not done it and am going to hold off till friday

lizandlulu · 23/11/2010 20:55

i might hold off till fiday like you said klou, i only have one 'good' test left. i think i will wait till the ovulation tests come off the internet cause there is 5 free cheapie tests with them.

not sure tho, will make my mind up in the morningGrin

MadKatz · 23/11/2010 18:51

Congrats Badger

Good Luck with your test tomorrow Liz x

KLou111 · 23/11/2010 18:11

Congratulations badger!!! More happy news. Hoping for more tomorrow Liz :)

lizandlulu · 23/11/2010 17:05

congratulations badgerwife i hope you start to feel better soonSmile but relax and enjoy the early days!

maybe you should have waitind till after christmas to try? but something else would always come up, i feel the same about things like that. i am invited on a hen weekend in may and really want to go but if i do get pg before then (and i bloody better be) i will just have to not go!

Badgerwife · 23/11/2010 16:04

Is it wrong of me to be a bit gutted that I'm going to miss the free cocktails at the office Christmas party, and not be able to eat nice pate at Christmas?

Badgerwife · 23/11/2010 16:02

Wow, I haven't been on here in a couple of months because I was getting very depressed by my awful pregnancy-like withdrawal symptoms from the pill, and then my period being 3 days late, but I did a test this morning as I'm on Day 33 of my cycle and guess what, it's a BFP!!!!! It was no faint line either.
I should be delighted (which I am) but I'm also overwhelmingly paranoid that it is a fluke and my period is going to come on because of how I feel (really bloated and crampy). Will have to test again tomorrow morning before I start to take in the news.

KLou111 · 23/11/2010 12:53

Sod it, tomorrow morning then :)

lizandlulu · 22/11/2010 21:36
