Hey guys!! Have taken the big step of coming of the Pill to TTC another DC. This will be DC number 2 - already have DS who is 15 months old and a DSD who is 7 years. We have spoken about another baby for a while now but it has now become more of a reality now that we have decided to stop using any contraception!! I am so so excited but know all too well about this horrible waiting game of patience which seems to get worse even after a BFP as then it's the painful wait for a 12 week scan!! (although this time I may pay for a private scan) I have had a MC before DS was born so am also aware of not getting to ahead of myself...but I'm so excited nonetheless!! I bought my friend a little present for her brand new (with tags on) baby girl and was so so broody. Cant wait for my turn now!!

Sorry for the long warbling post. This is such a hard time, the pre TTC, the waiting for BFP or BFN etc etc...I am the most impatient person in the world as it is...and to not to be able to tell anyone in RL makes it even harder!!

Hope there will be some ladies in the same boat as me!! Look forward to meeting u and sharing journeys!!

Lots of love, Pip xx

Oh Fish you are a div!

Of COURSE we want you to stay!! We'd miss you if you went :(

Fishpond · 07/11/2011 15:03

Still hasn't sunk in, not sure how long it will take before I really realize this is it! I'm sooooo tired though and now realize not just from everything going on.

I checked out a couple pg threads but if it's ok with you guys I'd like to hang out here with the gang Grin seems more friendly but I understand if not!

YorkshireTeaAddict · 07/11/2011 14:41

Secret, that's a good idea! Fingers crossed!!

Argh...I just SO want to be pregant :(

YorkshireTeaAddict · 07/11/2011 14:31

Oh my gosh, I put each day!! I meant every other day!! It's on my mind...and tonight's the night Wink

YorkshireTeaAddict · 07/11/2011 14:30

Welcome MakeTea!! Yes, it is very possible :) I came off my pill 3 Sundays ago to TTC #1 and I had my withdrawal bleed on the Friday! I'm not doing any OPKs yet, but will be interested to see how things go this month.

Hi Secret ! Yup yup, lots of SWI each day just to make sure we do our best to catch a golden egg if one is released! It's fun Grin How are you? x

MakeTeaNotWar · 07/11/2011 14:20

kirrinIsland · 07/11/2011 10:15

Congrats to the graduates!! :-)

AF is not due for me until Friday - would I notice any symtpoms at this early stage? Keep thinking I feel a bit sick but maybe Im just making myself feel so by obsessing so much about whether Im preggers or not??!! How early could you tell???!?!

Im so impatient!!!!!

kirrinIsland · 07/11/2011 09:23

Ha ha - you are now officially addicted to poas. I did 7 tests with DD :)

Fishpond · 07/11/2011 09:14

X post kirrin!

This is 4-5 days early so I'm still a bit in shock about getting a positive so early. Looking forward to retesting next few days Grin

Fishpond · 07/11/2011 09:13

Thanks both and welcome Disney!
Still a little early for me to take it as gospel, but a line is a line right?

I just hope this is a sticky one!

kirrinIsland · 07/11/2011 09:12

fish oh my goodness - that's fantastic, I'm so pleased for you Grin
How many days early was that?

Perhaps we should all do it your way, it seems to work :)

Disney welcome! Baby number 8? you've got your hands full! Bet it's lots of fun though. How old are DCs 1-7?

I can't believe how many graduates we have already - this must be a very lucky bus!

Vinolover · 07/11/2011 09:07

Welcome Disney! Wow, 8! I really admire you... Im worried about how im going to cope with 3. Lol.

Congratulations again Fish. So happy for you :) X

disneystar1 · 07/11/2011 07:17

Fishpond · 07/11/2011 06:43

It's not very big or fat, but it's a positive!!!! :D

I had a dream last night that I woke up and it was a BFP Smile

Now I'm even more nervous than before! Sooooo happy I could burst Grin

kirrinIsland · 07/11/2011 06:23

Oohh fish got my fingers crossed for you. Wouldn't it be fab to get a bfp so early!

Keep us posted....

Fishpond · 06/11/2011 23:51

Kirrin! I wondered where you disappeared off to Smile

Well I'm bloody knackered tonight, not even 6pm and I'm about to go to bed as soon as I finish this post. 3am wake up + 10 hour workday + grandma in hospital + thinking about TTC / SS has me fatigued.

POAS round 2 in the morning, it's a First Response 6 days sooner but there's still a possibility egg hasn't even implanted yet (will be 9 dpo tomorrow) so fingers crossed. Night ladies xx
