Aiming for August 2012 BFP!!

Can you add me in? I can't seem to do iron my phone.

MightBeMad - cycle 1 - BFP due 15 August

Rule number one when trying for a baby - NEVER tell anyone you're trying for a baby!!

Went out last night with some girlie mates, mentioned my missed period to them (nearly wrote pissed period then!!) to see if it had ever happened to them and one of then started going on about relaxing and maybe I was stressed. I said I'm fine, I'm treating it like it came and went and starting again. Then she started saying but you might be stressed and not know about it so stop thinking about having a baby. I said how am I supposed to do that?! I repeated about 100 times that I wasn't stressed and i was fine but she kept going in and on saying you are stressed I can tell! I said I'm getting stressed at YOU not the baby thing!

Aarrrggghhhhh!

Hi everyone - i would love to get a bfp in August. I think this might be wishful thinking as I've just had a mc. This will be dc1. I have no idea when a possible bfp could happen in August, if indeed it could. But I have read that some people fall pg again before af arrives so hoping that might happen for me.

Zeux I have no idea when I OV! Will just have to keep dtd every 2-3 days as long as I can!

Quick question- does anyone else get light headed/dizzy spells at time of O? Had a +ive OPK yesterday and today, and the past couple of days i keep randomly going light headed.
Anyone else? Or does anyone know what causes it?

ribs that sounds dreadful - I'm so sorry you had to go through all that

winkle do you have any idea when you're ovulating?

Is this where you all are....

RIBS that sounds horrible! Its as if dealing with a mc is not enough that you have had to go through the horror of all that.

winkle hope you get some answers soon mate! I hope those bloody doctors pull their act together and get the tests done for you.

Hello all!

whenshewas - nope, no sign of AF!

Am out this evening and tomorrow night so will start DTD from saturday i think!

God ribs that sounds horrendous!!!
I was ' lucky' I guess in that it was natural and the scan showed it had all gone, unlucky in that it happened without warning on my dd naming day infront of a room full of people, they didn't know but I was on hooks and just wanted to go home, the bitch at a & e was also the icing on the cake!!
Thankyou for sharing your stories, I guess it just really is pot luck how long it takes but I cant believe I spent years as a teenager worried about getting of if we has a split condom or missed pill when I've spent the last 4 yrs using nothing and been pg only twice!

Well rep, to cut a long story sort - the hospital made me have medical management. I was in hospital for 2 days while they have me pills to make me abort the "tissue". Passed huge blood clots (so much that I had overnight stays as they said id bleed to death before I could get back to hospital) They then used the enormous tongs twice to pull the tissue out of my cervix, the pain was excrutiating. It didnt work either day! I told them from the start it wouldnt work and i wanted an ERPC - they wouldnt give me one as they were determined this would work. So 10 days after the finding out id been carrying a dead foetus they gave me an ERPC. 2 days before xmas! Bled for nearly a month after. Dont you just love the NHS. No period until March.

Zeux Facial was lovely. Iv started the acupuncture a few weeks ago. Only had one session, im off again on Wednesday. Ill try anything me!! I dont think it can do any harm. The guy who does it is crazy but couldnt care less if it works.

Ooh a facial. Now that's what you need. Something lovely, relaxing and pampering.

I've been thinking about doing acupuncture as supposed to be very good for TTC, has anyone else tried it?

Oh God RIBS what happened? Did you have ERPC? I had mine the day after Mother's Day and bled until mid-April . Every now and then (usually when I am trying to get to sleep) I have irrational thoughts that the surgery has somehow ruined my uterus forever. Were your complications recognised promptly?

kitty MMC discovered in December. Still trying to get up diffed. I was told by every woman and her dog. Ooohh you'l catch back on straight away. Big Fat Liars. Some people do, its the luck of the draw. Others arent so lucky.

I think ive been so unsucessful because I was literally butchered after the MMC. I dont think my insides have recovered properly. Im kind of hoping the the chemical preg is a sign that its nearly there and maybe next month it'l be made of velcro and my innerds will be fuzzy enough for it to grab on and bloody well stay there.

Of course day one is 1st day of period, I couldnt get my head round it - what an idiot, its not like im new to this. It'l be 20 months of excessive nookie. Back on the clomid tomorrow then. Dizzy spells here we come. Im starting to get used to them its like being permanently pissed.

Bollocks to work I say. Iv just booked myself in for a lovely facial.

aufaniae No major reason for no sugar, just think that I eat far far far far far too much of it. also cut down on dairy although not calcium the dairy coz it was making me feel nauseous. I'm also eating more fruit non TTC I usually avoid it
I do feel healthier though so all is good.

Hi Kitty I think that's why I was so upset this month, too. The "superfertile" 3 months post-m/c have come and gone . It's probably a load of rubbish anyway and haven't I read somewhere that eggs take 3 months to mature fully so you need to be at month 4 after m/c (at least) to ensure that the eggs weren't under any stress from the outset...I suspect this theory has many, many holes but please let me believe it for now, peeps!

Ow just checked in diary and if af hurries up, my next bfp due date will be or around my 6th wedding anaversary and my dads bday, wouldn't that be nice

• not gona mention the other outcome, positive mental thinking etc

Newbie a friend getting pregnant at your wedding is just plain rude!

Hello familiar faces
Still stuck in the half way house that is cod but trying to use ribs as an example, David beckham isn't in here so I don't want to stay for long, considering pulling away from mn to keep me more sane this month but as doing cb trial I will be thinking about it everyday anyway!
Girls who have had a mc ( ) how long has it taken you after one to conceive again or how long have people been trying, this was my second month which I know us no time at all but I guess I did buy into the more fertile myth and really hoped it would just click right into place

Best of luck might

newbie am pretty sure dh's swimmers are ok because I had two chemical pregnancies the past two months. It means we did conceive (sperm fused with egg) but for some reason it didn't implant properly or died soon after implanting.

Am trying to be positive and just focus on making a nice healthy uterus for August (and Sept & Oct depending on how long this takes). I wouldn't worry too much about the sugar thing, it's just a theory it might help so I thought I would try it.

frustratedpants please may I ask, why are you avoiding sugar?

No intentional sugar here. And trying to eat healthy. Is seriously hard work considering I'm usually stuffing my face eating cakes and chocolate and generally unhealthy snacking.

Resipsa - sorry about your loss. I had one before dc1 as well, that's one of the reasons for starting now. Fingers crossed for you this month.
