Hi everyone!

Just wondering if anyone is trying for baby number 2?

I've been 'sort of' trying for two months, but this month am really determined! I think i'm supposed to ovulate this wednesday, so BD'd today, yesterday... etc!!

I have a 15 month old DD....

Congrats to all the BFPs!! GrinGrinGrin

I'll be waiting for you on the due October thread! That's great soooooo exciting!!

I'm crossing my fingers for all those waiting to test!

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 04/02/2012 21:29

turnwest - and you are on 13th. :)

Yes I'm only going on to the pregnancy board after 14dpo. I feel superstitious going now...like I'm tempting fate or something.

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 04/02/2012 21:28

JumpingFrog -I must have sent my msg before you posted your BFP.

That's fantastic!!! Congratulations. And we have same due date :)

backwardLFDTpossom · 04/02/2012 20:44

Woohoo to the BFPS! Hope both of your pregnancies are happy and healthy x

AF has arrived here, but this is a good thing as now I know what my cycle is doing post coil and I can start SWI in about 9/10 days Wink

JumpingFrog · 04/02/2012 20:28

Thanks turnwest! Congrats to you too! XSmile

turnwest · 04/02/2012 19:34

many congrats jumpingfrog, we can all go up to pregnancy forums together!!

Richard and judy my due date would be approx 13 October, so only a few days different!!

JumpingFrog · 04/02/2012 17:45

Thanks all!
Richardandjudy my due date would be the same as you! I'm in the same boat, fingers crossed x

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 04/02/2012 17:06

Thanks everyone :) I really really hope that you all get your BFPs very very soon.

JumpingFrog Let us know how you get on...

turnwest Hurrah! Congrats to you and your family. Do you have an idea of your due date? I would be Oct 16th (I think). Not going over to the pregnancy boards yet though as I haven't missed period. Will wait until next week to make sure...

madaboutmadmen · 04/02/2012 17:02

Congrats Frog!! Great news

JumpingFrog · 04/02/2012 16:32

So I caved in and did a test.. BFP!! Grin Can't believe it, totally thought it would be negative.. Early days though, early days.. Good luck everyone who is testing soon x

HelloBear · 04/02/2012 13:06

Oooo congrats to turnwest also:)

HelloBear · 04/02/2012 13:04

Hi ladies, can I join you? I'm 33 and have just decided to start ttc for #2. I had wanted to wait till my DD was 3 but did a u-turn last night Wink (i bliam the 3 vodka and cokes). She is only 20months but my DH has been desperate to start for second dc for ages. I've changed my mind as I want to leave my job but figure that I might as well use my mat pay and then leave. So I've made the scary decision to crack on! I am ultra broody but really nervous about how hard it will be to look after 2 DC. Anyone else feel like this?

Anyway - congrats to Richardandjudy, fingers crossed for a happy and healthy pregnancy.

And good luck to all others.

Chunkychicken · 04/02/2012 13:00

Congrats ladies - lots of BFPs :)

Still got a wk or more to wait until I can test, so trying to keep busy & keep hopes low!!

turnwest · 04/02/2012 12:52

Should say Richard and judy, not just, silly iphone

turnwest · 04/02/2012 12:51

Big congrats Richard and just and guess what? I could nt wait for tommorrow, done a test and yes a BFP!!I can't believe it, my periodd have become so irregular as I ve got older and I ve had no pregnancy symptoms at all but clear blue says 1 -2 weeks. Just hoping nothing goes wrong as I m in same boat as Richard and judy, it's very early but I m so excited..

JumpingFrog · 04/02/2012 11:43

Congrats richardandjudy! What great news, that's brill. Grin
Fighting off massive urge to test myself.. Have had only very slight cramps, but been very tired, so much so I fell asleep on the sofa last night about 9.30 which I haven't done since last pregnancy. Really don't know what to think, don't want to get my hopes up. Think I will try and hold off a bit longer!

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 04/02/2012 11:22

As per my usual impatient self, I wasn't happy/convinced with the result of the 25miu internet cheapie test so I did an OPK which tested +.

I couldn't take it so rushed out to Boots to get a First Response 6 days early jobbie and I got a nice, unmistakable BFP :)

I'm only 10dpo so it is very early. Fingers crossed for a little sticky one.

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 04/02/2012 09:44

So I did another test this morning and got a very slight shadow line. OH said he could kind of see it. I still don't quite believe it tbh. Will keep testing every day and hopefully it will get darker everyday.

I have a stuffy nose this morning that is all bloody when I blow (yuck - sorry) and bleeding gums. I have a terrible headache and feel a bit rotten.

Need to keep positive. Good luck to everyone testing this weekend :)

RichardAndJudysButtPlug · 03/02/2012 10:34

Hi everyone. Sorry about the BFNs. Rubbish.

bettergetamoveon - sorry about your FIL. :(

I am 9dpo - gave in and tested this morning. Thought I could see (based on me squinting/going cross-eyed/holding test up to light) a faint hint of a teeny darkened line. I pointed it out to OH 'look it's there look, it's there, can you see it?' and he was like 'what? where?' but then kind of saw it. Think he was just agreeing with me to shut me up.

So I dunno...will test in the morning and see how we get on.

I feel quite good today considering I have been up really early with DS. This is odd as I usually cannot function without a good 7-8hrs sleep and I have had about 4!!! Maybe this is a symptom??

turnwest · 03/02/2012 07:37

Hi everyone, sorry for the bfns, I m on cd 27 so just waiting now probably could do a test but have had no pregnancy symptoms at all so don't think it's my month this month either! On the bright side I ve booked a holiday for may so at im excited about that. If nothing happens by Sunday I'll test, my cycles go from cd 25 to cd 37 so I could have a while to wait yet!

bettergetamoveon · 02/02/2012 23:44

thanks for the thoughts girls, fil in hospital until tuesday getting radiotherapy and blood transfusions. dh said he was tired but cheery tonight and we'll all see him on saturday. I'm hoping I'm still not out this month, just hope my fertile window will coincide with dh being home!

I know only too well how depressing it is when af arrives girls. I went through this for 8 months and for a couple of minutes every month I thought it was the end of the world. Don't disregard your feelings...the disappointment is crushing. We will have babies soon:)

JumpingFrog · 02/02/2012 22:40

Hey everyone who has had BFNs, sorry to hear.. Let's keep fingers crossed, we've got to have some good news soon... The wait to POAS is just draaaaaaaaggging tho!!

backwardLFDTpossom · 02/02/2012 22:31

Sorry to hear, CWest

CWest30 · 02/02/2012 21:14

I'm out for this month too, af came this morning, but am pleased to say, no more heavy or painful than usual. Maybe next time, onwards and up as they say xxx

stabiliser15 · 02/02/2012 10:58

AF has finally been and gone for me so now waiting until ovulation, which is going to coincide with a lovely week away with DH and DD... and DSD and her mum! Trying a joint holiday for first time (just a few days away really), and we do all get on well, but am not sure it will be the most, ahem, romantic of atmospheres in which to TTC!

Come on some BFPs to encourage us all!
