p.s. I'm 29

p.p.s Congratulations Lollypop bear! relax and enjoy! xxx

Can I come aboard too? Hoping the christmas cheer will help to get us BFP! Got on my favourite bright red santa dressing gown on which I'll switch for sexy lingerie if I could only just figure out when I've ovulating!

I'm on day 49 of CD, got a BFN on day 46 and day 39. Since I came off the pill in June I've had very changeable cycles, one 42 day, one 45 day, one 38 day and now this 49 day. Thinking of seeing my gyno when I get next AF and hoping there's no problem with my ovulation... Had a mmc in Aug 2009 after an accident that got me PG in cycle #1 so not sure what's changed now we're planning it! does anyone else have experience of such irregular AFs? Any recommendations?

So here we go Jencd TTC #1, cycle number 4, AF a constant mystery....

Here's to us all creating babies for our mangers!

Zara1984 · 01/12/2011 15:29

Hello everybody, can I come aboard? At the back of the carriage for me because I'm starting TTC#1 after AF arrives on 8/9 Dec. Long cycle, ovulating over Xmas time so if I got ridiculously lucky on my first go it'd be EDD of early September...

My next AF would be due 13 Jan or slightly before methinks...

Best of luck everyone!!

Oops, cross-posted, had this page open for a while as I am BFing DS1 and trying to MN at the same time!
Yes, we are doing the tree today, Whysoserious, - we have a fake one, have got the box out from under the bed, just waiting for DH to get home from work and then we'll decorate it together. I'd love five two trees one day, so many decorating themes, once a year is just not enough!

OptiMumPrime · 01/12/2011 14:54

Well done, Flamingo, thanks for doing the list.

Whysoserious · 01/12/2011 14:38

Congratulations lollopybear!!

Hopefully this is the first of many BFPs!

So - who's putting their tree up today? I am! Well one of them, we're going to be OTT this year and have one in the dining room and one in the lounge. Dining room one is fake which I'm putting up tonight (spent a fortune on marks and sparks decs for it yesterday) and we'll get a real one for the lounge in Saturday.

Also had a huge clear out of my clothes yesterday and went to the gym so feel very proud of myself today Grin

Dame I will have a glass pleaseSmile

Really feel like we have not done enough this month and only just realised today that I am now in the 2ww.

dameflamingo · 30/11/2011 19:50

winkly - sorry I left you off update. I think mushy peas make the whole meal a healthy option...they're green after all Wink

This evening DH is preparing moules frites - taking advantage of AF..we sure know how to live life on the edge. He has just waved a glass of wine in front of the laptop ...bad man

83BumbleBee · 30/11/2011 19:44

Hey all, can i hop aboard? Very excited waving to everyone.

Im 28, TTC #1, cycle 1, AF came today so not due again until 31st Dec which is fine by me as means i should be ovulating mid December.

Fingers crossed for everyone. x

Winkly · 30/11/2011 18:58

(sulks at being left off the lists)
dameflamingo AF due on Saturday and no PMT signs yet so I'll skip the prosecco for now, but had battered sausage and chips last night for dinner - yum - so can't claim to be that healthy. Do mushy peas make it OK?

Chuckaluck · 30/11/2011 18:00

Really - I am addicted to diet coke - what does it do?
