OPK's, SWI, SS, BFP's, AF's and other acronyms screaming your name? Hide in our wonderfully random and general TTC double decker bus - every stage welcome!

Definitely guilty of C! Wasted 3 sticks last month dammit! Have just purchased a Clearblue monitor - start using it tomorrow, quite excited actually! :D HOPING it really works and tells us when it's a good time.

Captain...
I hear on the conscience thing. My fingers r crossedfor u. For a while before ttc I stopped visiting so much with my friends with little ones cause ki wanted one so bad. And not a lot to talk about when they relate in everything to their children. Oh well.

Ok, bringing this over from another thread I posted o on.

Ok, please let me know I'm normal. Put your hand up if you have done the following..
A. Turned sideways and looked In the mirror and arched your back, sticking your tummy out to see what you might look like a little bit pregnant.
B. Bought or acquired some baby things already and have them stashed away for"some day"
C. POAS even though you know it's probablyo early too early to tell anyways , or were using contraception bet were sure that you had conceived anyway somehow, only to get a BFN
D. ALL OF THE ABOVE

hi guys. I went away for a while as I was getting a bit obsessive - SO convinced last month that I was pregs, but no. Now I'm back on the 2ww and feeling seriously emotional - have been weeping all day, feeling absolutely dreadful. This may well be more to do with the building site I call home tho..

Had two friends announce pregnancies over the festive period, which made me feel even more strongly that I want to join the club. Really happy for both of them, especially as one lost her first a month before the due date. I kind of felt like I shouldn't get pregnant before she conceived again after that, so now I can SWI with a clear conscience, if you get me.

How are you all doing? Congrats and welcome and commiserations accordingly! Fingers crossed for lots of ++++++++++ this month.

ahhh of course..i see! Oh. Well in that case, I'm 9 DPO. I've decided tho if we don't manage to get a + this month, I'm going to invest in one of those ovulation machine things. I'm defo going to wait tho now til my AF is due, going to tough, already wasted a few sticks!

thanks dubai and secretsparkle..
Sorry you've had a false positive, that's just ugh...:(What's this about blue dye tests, do they not work as well then? Gosh all these things to learn!
What does DPO mean? xx

Should not have spoke too soon...started bleeding heavily last night, it's not stopped as to now

Hi kite welcome. So sorry about your mmc. Wishing you loads of luck and baby dust!

I can budge up and make a little space on this bus - bfp yesterday! Very happy bit also terrified of giving birth again.

Good luck everyone, and thanks for your support xxx

New to this thread and just need some positive vibes coming my way! :-) Been ttc since last May when we had a mmc with our first at 17 wks. Getting desperate now, and don't have girlfriends to talk to, because they all have 2-3 kids and just give advice like 'stop stressing it will happen!"!! (because it was that easy for them) aggh! I'm 37. Feel like time is running out, and hate feeling obsessed with days of my cycle and test kits! None of them understand how I felt about losing the baby either, and still do, feel like I'm in some alien world. Just done a pg test and got a bfn. Boobs feel enormous tho. How early is too early to test! ?

Day 34 and two clear blue tests which initially looked negative but when I checked again an hour later both have feint crosses. Anyone else had this? I've read about evaporation lines...

32 days secret! Not been doing anything at all as last time around TTC became so stressful, then when we were liertally just about to start IVF I fell pregnant. So this time we thought we'd just go contraception free for a few months, not think about it at all yeah right and see what happens. I just can't bear the thought of starting with charts, temps possible IVF at wot not at the moment, it just reminds me of that long time of thinking it all might never happen.

Thank you! Day 33 and still no signs of AF... Thing is I have had such irregular cycles for ages I want to test don't want to test IYSWIM? I ve also got a stinking cold and I think that a) if it was BFP I d be to tired and poorly to really enjoy the momenet and b) if it was BFN I d just feel all the more crap! So just waiting and mn-ing in bed for a while longer :) good luck to all x

Ooo good luck dubai!

Dubai,fingers crossed for you! Are u you going to test our k just wait and see? ( please exist my typing, darn mobile phone) *excuse not exist ... Grumble

Hey ladies!

Hope all had a happy xmas and new year! BIG CONGRATS to you ladies that got their bfp's! How exciting.

Spent xmas day at my M/FIL'S house listening to SIL's baby plans. She is due in March and I am really happy for them both but I can't help but want to cry! (I'm a horrible person I know!) We mustve started SWI about the time they did. Still no joy, AF arrived 17 Dec!

Think I may try charting. Has anyone any experience/ advice? Also any advice to stop me losing the plot?

Any of you gals plauged with PCOS too?

Hello all, this is Nivea, new name...

Pony congrats! What a lovely day to find out on :) difficulttimes, great news for you too

Cycle has been all over for a while now but I am now on day 32 and no signs of AF. Ooh la la! Would make my age gap 23mths, which to me is pretty perfect.

Secret I'm not planning on going back to contraception, if that's what you mean, just avoiding fertile days for a couple of months rather than targeting them!

I'm still monitoring my cycle etc, and I'll still be checking in here and on Fb on a regular basis....

Bought my dress yesterday - I'll upload a pic when I get back on the laptop rather than the iPod - I'm so excited now!!

Thanks everyone!

Good luck to you all with the baby making and the wedding planning! :)
