Hey All!
Im currently on CD 20 so around 8-10 days until the AF arrives or I can test :D Just thought there may be some others that are waiting and driving themselves crazy! Thought we could hopefully share our BFP within the next few weeks, and keep each other sane! :D

Elle. Aww thanks... Now that i'm oldar and wiser it's hard to see how stupid I was.

However i'm not my high school friend that has 7 kids with 5 different men either.

Just about to leave my 20s too unfortunately.

Ahhh bless you beeble! That's a long time ago and I don't think any of us are the same people as we were back then. I don't want to tell you to have no regrets, but try not to punish yourself for it by thinking that any difficulties you may have in the future are your fault.

My mum had my brother when she was 25 and tried for 7 years and had 3 mc before I came about when she was 32....
So I don't hold my breath at this being easy.

My confession

I got pregnant and had a termination when I was 17.

Biggest regret of my life but I know I wouldn't be where I am now otherwise. I just hope it does not lead to any issues this time around.

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 20:52

Only just? As in just in or about to leave?

ellesabe · 07/02/2012 20:51

Moonwatch!

ellesabe · 07/02/2012 20:36

Don't worry dh21, I'm in my 20s too only just though Wink

misslaughalot · 07/02/2012 20:27

I'm 35 and a half and still ttc #1, we can do it at our age beeblebear!

aaaaaarrrrrroooooquack!

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 20:18

Grin everyone's an old gimmer to me, jokes!!

I always wanted to have kids young so I'd still be relatively young when they eventually bugger off and leave home!
My mum was 31 when she had me which isn't old at all but I wanted to be a young cool mum to my children (although I'll prob embarrass them to death when they're teens!)

ellesabe · 07/02/2012 20:11

Guffaw!

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 19:54

Mind you Beeblebear don't get tooooo cheerful cos compared to Desp you are an old gimmer! Grin

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 19:53

p.s Beeblebear I had my first at 34, so, I'm not putting down your wish to be a mum already (at all - we all have our dreams) but don't want you to think going over 30 is any problem from a preggers point of view. I was cycling 30 miles a week at 7 months despite being an old fart and like to think I keep up with the young 'uns! Wink... that joke is probably only funny to me cos I think I am a young 'un. Desp probably thinks I'm serious. Grin

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 19:50

My birthday on 24th and hoping to be up the duff - that'd be a great pressy - though hopefully without the serious nausea. :)

Was nauseus 24/7 for entire trimester with ds and no sympathy as no-one knew, 'cept dh of course! OK so maybe a dash of sympathy from him. Wink

Wierd to think I'd give anything to be nauseus (for that reason) now! Grin

OOOooo the mooon

Aaarrhoooo-tca-tca-tca (how do you type the noise a rabbit makes???)

ellesabe · 07/02/2012 19:37

Oooooooo...look at the moooooon! Grin

Beeblebear · 07/02/2012 18:32

Wishing praying hoping for sure!

Ya lugging a lo around could definately do it.

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 18:26

Oh of course you already told us that, sorry! Well doubly fingers crossed then!

I've got extremely bad backache which I get when AF is due even though I've had it slightly for a month or so. Don't know if it's AF or just lugging ds around.

Beeblebear · 07/02/2012 18:22

On the 26 th!

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 18:19

When's your birthday beeble? Fingers crossed for us being preg on our birthdays! (obv hope it happens alot sooner though)

Beeblebear · 07/02/2012 18:11

I have planned a ski trip for my birthday!

though I keep hopefully thinking that i'll have to call it off on account of being preggo

The big 30 and just trying for #1 :(

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 17:36

Lol yeah I'll be 22 this year, ds was 9 months last year on my 21st and still breastfed so couldn't really do anything spectacular. In fact I can't remember what I did Confused

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 17:32

Oh no - sill me. You are already 21.

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 17:32

Does that mean it's your 21st in April? OOooooo you got anything exciting planned?

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 17:28

Ill wait this week out and if nothing changes by next mon I'll go to the docs.

I keep thinking what if I don't get preg for months and months. I always had it in my head that I'll have my second at 22 so that gives me....til July at the latest to be born before April 2013

Snowbeetle · 07/02/2012 17:20

Amazing Beeblebear keep it up and inspire us!!! All this poas is not healthy for ones sanity!! Wink

Put the sticks somewhere 'safe' ... you'll never find them again then - or not till you get the crimbo decs out or something anyway!! Grin

Beeblebear · 07/02/2012 17:12

Awoooo-ooo-ooo were monkey checking in here

Resisted the urge this morning. Only cd 26 out of a potential 27 to 32 day cycle

.H.ad sff this am now am feelihng a bit crampy like af on her way.

Dh21. They won't be comcerned but that doesn't mean they won't send you for a blood preg test to check.

4 more days until I told myself I will test. Someone hide my sticks please!

DesperateHousewife21 · 07/02/2012 15:59

Well I've been reading and it seems that docs won't necessarily be concerned til you've missed THREE AFs and getting bfn. That would be...march. God I can't wait that long!
