Kerry your post made me laugh Grin fingers x for you

weechops · 29/03/2013 07:32

Red same here just sore boobs. And had my usual hormonal melt down the week before AF, so pretty sure I'm out.

And I need to sit through Sunday lunch looking at my sil scan PIC. (Which she happily plastered all over fb yesterday) urgh :(

RedRobin1 · 29/03/2013 05:12

Apart from the usual sore boobs no other 2ww symptoms! I just know she's going to arrive again.

Quick delurk to say hi.

Sorry winkle

resipsa don't feel bad ttc completely takes over your life, I've never been more self absorbed in my life.

fatas I struggle with the new name too Grin

Thingymajigs · 28/03/2013 20:14

Sorry to hear that winkle. Sad
I hope your mum gets out of hospital soon res.

twinklestar2 · 28/03/2013 19:18

Oh res I really hope you ger lucky and don't need the loan.

resipsa · 28/03/2013 18:45

Hi Red. How're you doing?

RedRobin1 · 28/03/2013 17:44

Hugs res it's totally understandable to feel that way and ttc does take over everything Sad

First month lucky announcements are hard to take especially when we've been on this mill for what seems like forever. Hope you don't need that loan and get your happy announcement this month.

resipsa · 28/03/2013 17:05

winkle

resipsa · 28/03/2013 16:59

Oh joy - another pregnancy announcement at work. It'll be her third and, yes, you guessed, it was "first month lucky". Grrr. Really lovely person but, still, grrr!
Managed unexpected DTD this morning before work (only I was surprised on that one, it seems!).
In a bit of state here (particularly after the announcement) - was going to ask DM for a loan for IVF this weekend as her rates are better than the bank (!) but she's just been admitted to hospital (side effects of chemo) so I can't but we have to say yes or no next week. God, TTC makes you so self-absorbed. There she is in an infection controlled unit and all I can think of is me, me, me!

RedRobin1 · 28/03/2013 16:40

Sad winkle

twinklestar2 · 28/03/2013 14:47

Cd1 again as predicted

Thingymajigs · 28/03/2013 14:10

I tried the low key approach too then decided to go back to OPK's and temping. No doubt I'll change again in a few months.
I've got to admit that I never felt the annoyance at pregnant women that a lot of TTC'ers express. I assumed this was because I was lucky enough to have two children already but last week I got jealous of Gloria on Modern Family when she fell pregnant by accident and she isn't even real! Confused So I guess I've reached that point now. Huge sympathies for everyone who has to deal with pregnant friends and family everyday it must be so frustrating. I had no idea.
Good luck red. Hope this is your month.

RedRobin1 · 28/03/2013 13:18

Hi res glad you found us Smile fx you don't need the ivf and have a lovely 'surprise' this month. Tbh any bfp would be a surprise now because I don't feel pregnant yet again. Expecting AF sometime next weekend. Bored of ttc.

Meeting my pregnant friend for lunch tomorrow for the first time since she announced her 'surprise' pregnancy. Not looking forward to seeing her bump. Hope Easter lunch goes quick for you wee why do we have to suffer these women Hmm

Can't get used to the name either fatas ads

Adsum · 28/03/2013 10:35

Ah that sounds like a plan!

No I don't monitor it - I did it a couple of times and got the smiley on day 13 so I always assume its around then! Also I am so anxious anyway that its just another thing to stress about - am trying to be a bit lower key if poss - took 10 months last time so no rush!!Wink

Thingymajigs · 28/03/2013 09:43

I won't. Smile There's no reason why we can't conceive so there is always a chance. DP is on a mission this month. He thinks that we should carry on every other day after O too so we are in with a very good chance. Hopefully the soy made a difference too.
Have you ovulated yet or do you not monitor it? Once is definitely all you need though so good luck to the both of you. x

Adsum · 28/03/2013 09:18

And thingy don't lose hope x

Adsum · 28/03/2013 09:17

Hi all, fatas here again! Can't get used to me new name Wink

Hi res! Oh wee I remember you telling us about your horrid sil... Angry to her!

Am currently cd14 and dtd yesterday but not before so am thinking prob not this cycle! Am beginning to wonder if its even a good idea to get pg again as I'm so certain ill just end up mc-ing again...Hmm

Fx for all those in the 2ww and winkle sorry to hear you're feeling she's on her way...

Thingymajigs · 28/03/2013 09:03

Glad to hear the results came back ok res. Hopefully you wont need that IVF appointment.
I'm 5 dpo now too wee so you are a day ahead of me. I'm trying to distract myself as much as possible.
We watched The Syndicate last night which features a fictional couple who have problems TTC and had IVF. DP mentioned that it was a good job that we have the NHS so we could have IVF but I had to say we wouldn't receive it as I had had children already, it doesn't matter that he hasn't. I said we'd just reach a stage where we stopped actively trying and just get on with our lives. He just went quiet so no idea what he thought about that eventuality. I've told him about the limited fertility options before but it never stuck obviously.

resipsa · 28/03/2013 07:30

No, you sound normal whereas she clearly thinks of no one but herself, wee.

Talking of others' pregnancies, one more from my baby group for DD announced last week that a 2nd is on the way. And it was a "surprise", she says which I guess is the same as an accident. My guess is that my friend planned it though and the only one truly "surprised" was her DH!

twinklestar2 · 27/03/2013 22:08

No u don't, it's understandable. X

weechops · 27/03/2013 21:54

Ah winkle :(

Res you didn't kill it :)

I'm 5dpo and had sore boobs for 2 days now but probably nothing. I keep saying I won't symptom spot but I can't help it.

Hoping I don't have to spend Easter Sunday with my toxic sil. Usually I do Easter lunch and the egg hunt, but dh is away just now and supposedly fil was away visiting his partners family, and I didn't want to host sil on my own with no one to dilute :) but I find out today fil will be here and he invited me over on Sunday after I told him I wasn't doing lunch. Selfish I know but I hope sil and bil don't go too. Dont know how I'll manage to talk about her pregnancy without dh for support. I sound pathetic don't I?

twinklestar2 · 27/03/2013 21:34

It's ok you haven't killed the thread. I don't post much anymore. There's only so many ways you can say 'I've dtd at the right times' and then 'AF is here' 2 weeks later. Same shit, different month.

twinklestar2 · 27/03/2013 21:32

Hi res, glad you found us :)

Pink when I wipe. She'll be here tomorrow morning. Don't know I still bother.
