Positive July Please!

Okay...

I came off the pill 9 months ago and started having a regular 28 day cycle immediately and we weren't actively 'trying' but weren't preventing it either. This was the first month that I had decided to keep an eye on ovulation to make sure we were doing it at roughly the right time. So we BDed on CDs 9, 11, 12, 13 and 15. I ovulate on CD12

Baby (Baby!) was conceived on July 1st (90th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme). We were at my parents' house and they were at work, we were home alone and it reminded us of being teenagers many moons ago when we first met. So my first db was conceived on my parents' sofa in the heat of the moment. I was kind of lying back and DH was kneeling on the floor. It was the first and only time I have ever lain on the floor afterwards with my legs akimbo, trying to aid nature. And, hey presto, it worked!

This is our first baby, due on March 27th according to t'internet and I am bloomin' over the moon.

I've even taken a picture of the pregnancy test incase I think it's all a dream tomorrow.

I wish you all lots of love and luck for lots of BFPS!

Yes, we want way tmi! As much as you can give!!

Oh and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!

As the proud owner of the latest BFP I think you should predict who will be next....

CONGRATULATIONS SOH! Been thinking of you all day!!!!
Here's to a happy and healthy pregnancy xxx

yes fill us in. We want all the details, and a quick reminder how long you been trying etc.

thanks

Wow congratulations SOH yes we want all the details and tips for BFP's!

Well I cycled like a loon to make it to Boots on time and the queue was enormous. I felt like screaming about how unnecessary suntan lotion purchases and advantage card queries were when I needed to buy something that could change my life.

Eventually got home and discovered that I couldn't 'go'. So 90minutes later I've managed it and....

BFP!!!!!!

Told DH immediately who burst into tears, said wow repeatedly and then said 'get on Mumsnet'.

So here I am.... pregnant.

Does anybody want details about conception? Happy to share if you want!

piffle, xcuse me asking.. what cd did u ov.. on?do u think that is why you got a faint line 8 days post ov?

is a lovely thought
b

SOh, I had very faint tests on el cheapos from ebay at 7dpo, thought they were evaps
Tested again next morning with CB (not digital) and faint blue line straight away
So did what any normal lass would do, went out and bought a first response and bang nice pink line!
CB line was with late afternoon wee...

Bobblehead, I love you for your enthusiasm and positivity - thank you! I am really not holding out hope though, but am willing to be proven wrong!! Enjoy the book when it arrives - you'll probaby fall preggers before it does!!
SOH, I am sooooo excited for you. xx

Right, I finish work at 5pm, if I cycle really fast I can get to my local Boots before it closes, but is there any point when I'm not pregnant? At all. Not a bit.

(Who am I kidding, we all know I'm going straight from work to get a Clearblue digital anyway).

Thanks for the congrats, just hope they're well placed!

Will be back this evening with an update or should I wait till tomorrow morning when AF is actually due. Sod it, I'll get a 2 pack and do both if needs be...

Sounds great SOH!

Still think it sounds good for you too SOL. I am on cd27 of 35 (i expect) day cycle so a while to wait for me. I have absolutely no hope whatsoever this month though. I'm expecting my Toni Welcher book to arrive any day though so can become even more obsessed looking for signs of ov when I've read that!

paws crossed showofhands.. sounds v positive; faint lines are lines usually aren't they :-)

Sounds to me like a big congrats is in order

GO and buy a digital one now. x

Ooh I will let you know SOL!

SOH, that sounds very promising. I had no symptoms with my dd - I just failed to have af on the day it was due, did a test and nearly fell over. And, a line is a line as they say. How exciting!!! Let us know!!!

Afternoon all!

I've been waiting for my colleague to buzz off all day so that I could come on and see how everybody is/tell you what's happening with me.

Firstly, wannabump, that's GREAT news!

I'm on CD26 today (of 27) and as I posted a few days ago, have never had a single symptom in the 9 months of ttc. Well, for the last two days I have had cramping, just like I get on the first day of AF, but with no bleeding. So, yesterday afternoon I did my very first hpt ever and there was a very faint line. I did another this morning first thing and it was another faint line, but slightly stronger than yesterday. Both lines appeared after about two minutes. BUT, I am not getting my hopes up yet. They were el cheapo tests from ebay so I'm going to stay on this thread, wait a few days and test again. I've all but convinced myself that they were evaporation lines, but there's a glimmer of hope (you should hear my head right now: "but you don't have any symptoms, but I got two faint lines, but you don't have any symptoms, but a line's a line, right? but you're just not that lucky, but but but etc etc")

So, I am mildly hopeful but semi-convinced it's not true.

It's all very confusing! Please keep your fingers crossed for me and I'll do the same for all of you that are still waiting to test!

Bobblehead, af is due properly on Wed/Thurs this week, so if it doesn't turn up then, I will test again. I am pretty clockwork when it comes to the old af.
What stage are you at now? x

SOL I think it would take a couple days after implantation for a pregnancy test to show positive so maybe try again if that was what bleed was?

Coggy's AF arrived over the weekend i think, no new from me. x

Sorry about af SOL (if that's what it is) and congratulations to wannabump!

Everyone else ok today?

Any news coggy or Natty?

Morning all, pmsl Bobblehead about you spitting on people when pg! Hilarious!!! Me and dh lived in Montreal for 18 months, so know all about the dreadful winters!!
I am on CD28 today, or is it CD1??? Thought af was starting yesterday morning as had proper blood - sorry tmi, but then nothing all day yesterday or today. Crampy feeling though, and early detection pg test showed bfn. So, pretty sure af on her way, and I have jumped ship to the August thread.
Good luck to all.

I'm on CD19 and I OV'd on CD13 I shouldn't really test but just desperate too, I think most of my symptons are more to do with a cold than anything but you know what it's like you look for them don't you!

pink ranger I got my m/s at 7w+1 day came as total shock. Hopefully you avoid it though

nicki I have a 31 day cycle and got my bfp 8 days past ovulation on cd 26 clearblue test (faintline thought it was evaporation line) then darker bfp on a very early test I got off ebay brand was Acon
what cd are you on?
