Join The First Time Frolickers, trying to conceive their first child. Plenty of moral support, fun, dietary advice and most importantly, BFPs!!

Thats fab news Highheels - 6 months already!!!!

Well Jan I'll be jumping back on the health wagon & hoping our chances have upped!!!!

Hi raspberry and nice to see you over here fairy, thanks for making me feel welcome to drop back in! We're fine, enjoying every second, Rose will be 6 months at the beginning of January, can't quite believe it. She'll be having her first taste of solid food at Christmas dinner. Wish she'd sleep more than 2 hours at a time at night but she's mostly happy, contented and giggly . Hope you're both doing okay. I do try and keep an eye on everyone here and keep track of how yo're all getting on.

Hello Frolickers! Loving all the newbies...welcome to you all, and I'm sure we'll all be discussing our newborns this time next year (yes you guessed it, I'm putting on a brave face! Haha!). We're not seeing any family this Crimbo as its our first one in Bonny Scotland so think the lack of baby is going to hit me hard this year.
Not been on here for a few weeks but not much to report. My mum came to visit which was lovely, had lots of snow which was lovely and lots of wind which was not so lovely! Had a power cut for a few days (not fun when you have an electric shower and electric cooker!) and 2 weeks without mobile phone signal..the joys of living in the middle of nowhere.
Raspberry I'm sorry to say this but I am so glad you have fallen off the healthy wagon! I fell off and was run over by the bloody thing! Feeling pretty crappy about it but bugger it, its Christmas. Will start again after Hogmanay! And happy birthday, hope you had good one. I have to say I am very impressed by your hubby's present buying skills. I'll be 29 next month....scary stuff, nearly 30!
Blimey this is turning into a long post...sorry guys!

I got the results, everything normal except slight kink in left tube - not impossible to get pg but slightly harder!

Sometimes a take away in is as good as going out!!! Glad you had a good night

Loup you are most def not alone.

All went well with lap & dye, sore but happy

Happy b'day for yesterday raspberry That present sounds soooo cool. Where'd he get it done or did he put it together himself!

Welcome Laura Yes I totally understand those feelings. I hope your rollercoaster ride doesn't take too long!

Highheels Long time no see - how the devil are you?

Happy birthday raspberry sounds like you're having some lovely celebrations :)

Waves to anyone else who might remember me

Hi everyone! Please can I join, been ttc for 7 months now finding it all abit difficult if im honest didn't realise what an emotional rollercoaster it was going to be! Doesnt help that alot of my friends are expecting babies, obviously I'm really happy for then but I'm also immensly jelous and I feel awful for that! Anyway glad to be joining this thread and hopefully there will be some BFP for us this month! X

Ah ha, found you all. Got to hug a friends baby this week :)
Nothing else exciting here.....

Hope everyone has a great bonk-filled Christmas!

Thank you for the welcome.

It will be nice to have people to talk to. I don't feel I can really share how desperate I am to the outside world about this TTC lark,........ every time I talk about it people say 'just RELAX and it'll happen'.

When you've been trying for 2 years you don't really want to keep hearing that!!

Welcome LouP19, good luck for 2012!

I've been in quite a lot of pain with period cramp since I got home but I was expecting that (good excuse for some tlc from DH )

I'm going to take advantage of the possible increased fertility following the HSG and JS like rabbits

Hello, can I please join?

Am 35, hubbie is 37, been TTC for 2 years. Fell pregnant last Christmas but miscarried at 9 weeks. We had a bit of a break afterwards, but we've been just been tested again and then we're looking at a referral to the hospital in the New Year. Whilst I put a pragmatic/brave face on to the outside world, inside I am utterly desperate to conceive or to find out what's going wrong.

Am currently on day 33 of my cycle and have just done a negative test. Was praying that we'd get some good news before Christmas. As it is we'll be spending it with the in-laws and our baby nephew, who as much as I try I just can't bond with at the moment because it depresses me so much.

Let's just hope 2012 brings a new way forward for all of us,........

Glad it all went well josie. That's one more thing ticked off now- reall proud of you for going to the doctors and getting sorted. Sounds like your cakes are really taking off too!

Hi raspberry go you on your healthy eating and weightloss routine! I'm sure you were gorgeous anyway with all of that pole dancing! Hope married life is treating you well.

Hello to cave hope you're raring to go with all your Christmas shag-a-thon!

Welcome to the newbies (waves)

Thanks for the good luck wishes, it was fine! Both tubes are open and it was just a bit uncomfortable, despite me being absolutely terrified and shaking like a leaf beforehand (and nearly crying if I'm honest )! The staff were fantastic, they really made me feel like I could do it and that it wouldn't be too bad and I managed to have a chat with them (usually when I'm really nervous I get quiet but snappy) so generally it was a positive experience! I have a tilted uterus, which was actually upside down today but they said that wouldn't have any impact on getting pregnant. So now all I have to do is sort out my dodgy ovaries

Hi raspberry Indeedie I was :). Fingers crossed for you all that you will get your gorgeous babies,sleepless nights and stinky nappies very soon lol

[waves at Alien]

Good luck today Josie. All appendages crossed for you

Hi to all newbies!

Hi ratata & welcome. You must be very frustrated. Hope Jan/Feb brings you some way forward.

Thanks raspberry got my blood test today. Things went very well ast night, avoided a few convos & walked away feeling I had really good night.

Hi everyone :) just wanted to say hello and hope u are all well. I was on this thread a year or so ago and have now been blessed with a gorgeous daughter.she is 3 months old and currently laying on my chest going all funky movements lol

Keep positive ladies as there is light at the end of the tunnel :-)

Hello all, may I join? We were trying to start TTC but unfortunately things haven't been going so well. I've not been well and we are still trying to get to the bottom of what is wrong. Currently on Valium for pain and sex is difficult. Only managed to have sex twice in the last 2 weeks. Quite disheartening as this isn't how it was meant to be. Wedding had a shadow over it too because of my pains. Had X-ray, ultrasound and gyaene exam but nothing found. More tests in January/February.

Niece/nephew due in March so at least very much looking forward to that!

That woman woud have got a smack from me if I'd been there Raspberry!!!!
I really can't stand people like that. My cousin has moaned all the way through her pregnancy about being pregnant & now I get hourly newsfeeds on fb about her baby! Drives me insane! But FB is a whole different issue!

I have a 'Do' with a few mates tonight & I'm sure a certain few of the people will be discussing the babies as they are about the same age! I just feel like I'll never be part of that exclusive club!!!

Aww Josie thats horrible news. I'm taking Roya Jelly as it's supposed to increase egg quality (I think I'm getting desperate for anything to work!). Yeah they should have spoken to you first, not put it in a letter. make sure you get all your questions together that you wnat to ask by then.
