Hello hello hello! Thought it was about time I boarded this vehicle; I'm still lurking about on the May bus, even though it's June all the way now!

For those of you who weren't subject to my witterings on the May bus - Hello! I'm festiemum - 38 - Mum of 3, though this would be my first child with my husband - we got married recently.

I had a chemical pregnancy last month, so am all geared up to do it properly this month!

Doing OPKs this month too to try and get a vague idea of when I'm OVing. (Just looked at me fanny batter last month, but don't know how accurate that was!!!)

So, I'll leave this packet of chocolate hob-nobs here, shall I? Happy SWI to all! :o

louloubellamozzarella · 05/09/2011 20:37

In it to win it! :)

Did a cheeky SWI before yoga earlier Blush - hopefully the headstand did the trick - might have to implement that all the time!

prunella - when did you come off the pill - could it be a withdrawal bleed?? I had one, thought it was period but lighter and shorter...

feeling excited that im "in to win BFP" this month no playing!!!!!!!

Prunella79 · 05/09/2011 17:43

utterly lost cyclewise after coming off the pill, thought it would be straight forward but no way.
chalked myself up as a new cycle after what i presumed to be early AF CD21 last month but it disappeared after 2 days, now i'm left wondering what that was all about...could it be a)a miniscule period b) ovulation bleed c) implantation bleed d) none of the above. did two tests - one on CD24 and one CD30 BFN both times.
Anyone been through similar/no what might be made of this?

mrsmellow · 05/09/2011 16:03

Thanks louloubellamozzarella! DH and I continue to have plenty of SWI - we're off on holidays camping for 2 weeks at the end of the week, I'm not taking any pregnancy tests with us and I will test on my return (26th September) if no AF (so fingers crossed there!). I have very low expectations, have nearly convinced myself I'm barren and am making extravagant holiday plans for 2012....although I nearly fainted at work today (I have low blood pressure, but it is unusual all the same) and almost left for home to POAS even though I am at best ovulating or a few days PO.... I foresee several weeks of phantom symptom spotting ahead. Will check back in later in the month.

Hi all

Been a while since I've checked in. I'm nearing ov time so gearing self up for operation LAWABEN (loulou wants a baby erm now) for the next couple a weeks - hm catchy...

Have put myself in the list in AF order to please mama5 Grin so if there's no AF date for you in there, I've shifted to the bottom - no offence meant - if you know when you're due please whack yourself in the right place so we can all keep an eye on obsess over and try to pacify some of the 2WW/POAS madness.

However im thinking more about the future and how, when/if it comes to grandchildren, I will always be the mother in law. Maybe this is just something I'll have to get over, can't go on forever I suppose! Thinking I should be copying and pasting, so here goes!

More 35 year olds!!

Jmjam - wecome! I have two boys too and they are the best fun :) Three boys would be even more fun Grin so I'll just have to wait and see... There are threads about tips for conceiving girls but don't know if there is anything which will actually work. Maybe someone else on here will know.

Taytotayto - Welcome! Fwiw, I had tons of symptoms with ds2 but nothing this time and had to do a few tests to get a positive, so each pregnancy is different. DH doesn't mention the 2ww but he does have an air or excitement about him usually, and tries reading meaning in to anything I mention, like being tired or not hungry!

taytotayto · 01/09/2011 21:33

taytotayto (35) ttc #3 af due september 11/12 (really irregular but been ok last few months).

you would think having had two babies that id know the signs to look for. with first baby i was 6 weeks pregnat and didnt know!!!!!! with second baby i was just like i am now. dying to test test test. taking ever ache and pain as a sign. i swear to god i could convince myself im having twins no less. i spend hours looking for signs. how i get the time i dont know. dh hasnt mentoned the tww. do your partners ever mention it?

jmjam · 01/09/2011 20:52

Hi all, can I join too please?
Newbie boarder here so please be gentle with me. Still trying to get my head round all the jargon so forgive me if I get anything wrong! I am 35 and we are ttc#3 after 2 boys, ages 4 and 2. Just started my period today and on a pretty strict 28 day cycle. Husband in the forces and conceived both boys on his return from detachment, sadly he's not due away again until November!
Any tips on conceiving a girl?!

DialMforMummy · 01/09/2011 20:52

Sweettb I have a friend who had 2 boys and had pcos. So hand in there!
LOL Wellies my due date is 3rd May! Are we going to be booted out? Wink
