TTC#2 - very exciting!! anyone want to join??!

Thank you all for the lovely messages. Due date will be 4 October but trying not to get too set on it just in case!

Sounds promising Livened... not long til you can test more accurately if you use a first response 6 days before test! Will keep finges crossed...

Huge congrats to all with a BFP!!!

Can someone please slap me - I did a test today and it was negative - but it's 7 days before AF is due... I'm a complete idiot.

I have sore boobs, my tummy feels 'different' and I have heartburn for the first time since giving birth a year ago (I was keeping gaviscon in business I think those 9 months!).

I have one more test and I'm going to definitely wait until next Thursday/Friday to test. Hoping I don't go insane before then (although today's events indicate I already am...).

Hi a big congrats francesca oooh hope it all stays ok fingers crossed. Xxx

Hi Bridget lol i no I don't have a clue about the del monte a
Advert Lool.

And hello fridge I have no idea what they are doing with me yet I'm back tomoz or tues I think have to double check but what I can say I woke up twice through the night in pain and took paracetamol I won't lie I am in agony but I'm doing everything in my will power to not let them rule my life Ive stopped driving though as I tried to and felt that disy, I had to stop def not safe. X

Hi pentagon I'm not really better but learning to cope. Xx

But on the other hand ladies I brought my rock today and an so happy rings are out the way. Xxxx

Oh Francesca that's lovely, lovely news

I'm touching wood, picking four-leaf clover and crossing everything for us both.

If all goes well, I'd be expecting a mewing red-faced little bundle around 9th October (daren't even think that far ahead though) How about you?

Thank you Fridge! Am so happy and excited but a little worried that something may be wrong due to the disappearing and reappearing positive test so will have to keep fingers crossed!!

How are you? Any decision on when to TTC? I seem to remember you were waiting.

I am in the 'old hag' category and remembered it. These young whipper-snappers, eh?

Francesca Congratulations! Good day on this thread for BFPs! Fingers crossed it all becomes clear from here on.

Thank you for the good wishes everyone - very weird to be back in this position so soon (just hope, hope, hope, it has a happier outcome)

Very strange feeling. Don't know if this is the start of something wonderful or the beginning of more heartache.

It seems my attempt at a joke fell a bit flat! kbaby you're probably not an old hag like me that remembers "the man from Del Monte" advert.

I maybe a bit quiet (or on and off) over the next week or so. I think I may have to ban myself from the Internet for my own sanity. I need to stay away from Dr Google

London fingers crossed for you. Fridge is right, I completely missed my ovulation day according to the OPKs.

Congratulations Bridget what amazing news!! So pleased for you! When will be your EDD?

Thanks to all who asked how I was doing earlier on the thread. I went rather quiet this week as after my BFN but no period was feeling really low. But... have been doing Internet cheap tests all week and getting faint lines so decided to do a clear blue digital this morning and BFP!!!!!!

Still rather cautious just in case but vv happy!

Bridget WOO HOO! Stoked for you. I know it's not the end of the anxiety but I have everything crossed.

London IIRC Bridget didn't think she'd hit the right time either..but there is always February.

Popped in quickly but had to post when I saw Bridget's news. Was laid out all of Friday with a hideous migraine and am still feeling a bit shaky. DH has been a star and has taken DS out and about yesterday and today to give me a rest.

kbaby my DH has chronic migraine and had to go to a specialist clinic for diagnosis. Is this being considered for your headaches? They started out of nowhere for him and were crippling.

Bridget congratulations!! Great news!
kbaby are you feeling any better? I hope the doppler arrives soon. Never used one -I'd obsess - but I know people who have and found them reassuring
London good luck with the house project. It sounds like a lot of work! DH and I did the same thing 4-5 yrs ago and it was hard but all worth it in the end.Sounds like we'll both be trying in Feb - let's hope it's our month!

Lol I followed your lead ;-) aww london there is always feb which is just round the corner :-) its def time to put your A game on let's make feb your month don't go down with out a fight that's how I fell in November, I was just so persistant. Xxxx

Kbaby, from reading Bridget's post I just assumed that its a BFP. I hope that I'm right in my thinking! I wonder who'll be next? It certainly isn't going to be me as we didn't DTD at the right time

Oh so it does mean what I thought a huge congrats in so happy for you woop. That's fab news. I bet your over the moon xxxx

Congratulations Bridget!! Fab news :)

Hello to everyone else and the new comers. I'm posting in middle of my housework. I'll be back later on and catch up properly on this thread x

Does it mean a positive test?

Oooh I can feel my self getting excited

What does that mean Bridget have I missed something or am I acting blonde lol xxxz

The man from First Response, he say...........................

........."Yes!"

Thanks for the welcome all. I'm counting down the days until I can test - silly I know (and I should know better as its second time around) but I really hope for baby no.2 soon.

I second the dopplers as I used me when I was pregnant with DS and it just put my mind at rest on his quieter days. It was the same make as the one the midwife used, and I also used the gel which apparently made it clearer.

Wishing you all positive thoughts for the coming weeks of getting busy, and have a great weekend.

X

Thanks Bridget xxxx
And I no I'm trying not to I just wanted a simple pregnancy lol I don't think there is a such thing. Had a talk with my dp and bf and I'm not going to get my self in to a rut end of. I will continue using the cool pads and parecetomol but im going to try fresh air a walk n some exercise maybe lying down
is making them worse, dd has two parts tomoz morning afternoon I intend to take her as I can't continue feeling like total shite. But glad you feel my pain as many people are like it's a headache it will go, they don't understand the full extent to how they can run your life it founds pathetic but it's how I feel lol xxx

Bloody hell! kbaby - I think it's great the doctor wants to know the cause but how long do they expect you to stay in pain? I really hope they start moving faster on this..

I know it doesn't help at all but you really have my deepest sympathies - I've had some killer migraines in my time and they just render you incapable of doing anything. There is something horribly oppressive about head pain.

Pregnancy symptoms can fluctuate, please don't worry

Huge unmumsnetty hugs x

(mini B had eggs and bacon in the end, at least she has school dinners so I know she had some veggies today)

And to add ladies first my gp diagnosed me with tension headaches, surely if that's what they are
She should prescribe me something, as I'm sure there must be something abit stronger I can have.

And today I was slightly worried and confused as she said she didn't want to prescribe me nothing until she new the cause. So what am I to think

Hi all and hello pentagon xx

Well doc took bloods and prescribed me nothing lol as she wants to no the cause yet she can understand and see I'm in agony, but I'm just fed up lol to make it worse I now have a sty in my eye woooo it just keeps getting betted Ive been relaxing most of the day.
And now am feeling really weird lightheaded, been in the house is sending me mad and this snow don't help I'm making my self paranoid Im maki g my self Beleive something is wrong and I don't feel pregnant the nausea has stopped today and no breast soreness am I going mental the Doppler hasn't arrived yet either :-(

And Bridget my fridge looks the same lol after this week I feel like a invalid, so I'm afraid dd and dp are going to have to have takeaway tonight, as I want to go sit in a dark room lol and feel sorry for my self. Pissed of is not the word I just want to waks up in 9 months and pop this baby out lol.

Just wanted to say a quick hello to Pentagon, hopefully I'll be back to post properly later on tonight.

I really need to get on with cooking DD's tea - haven't a clue what she'll have though . The fridge is looking worryingly bare...

Hi everyone! Like resipsa and Livened, I'm new to this thread, if you don't mind me joining you! I have a DD who will be 2 next month, started trying for #2 when she was 17 months, got pregnant straight away but unfortunately had a MMC (discovered at 12 week scan) and ERPC in September. Have been TTC since November with no luck so far - hoping it doesn't take too long but already freaking out as I have been pregnant 3 times (MMC, DD, MMC) and all 3 times it happened straight away. So, I wouldn?t say excited, more like scared and desperate at the moment! But nice to "meet" you all! Bridget I'm pretty sure I've just had a CP as well - hadn't tested but had all the symptoms that I had during the 2WW with all 3 previous pregnancies so was secretly very hopeful... and then AF got me - about a day late - which was a total shock. Anyway...Kbaby good luck today, I hope they offer you something that will help!

Kbaby - hope it goes well at the doctors for you today.
