I thought I'd start a thread for all those who will be starting out TTC this month, I'd be interested to see how other people get on, tips, moral support etc. We'll be starting TTC at the weekend!!
Please join me!

Currently feeling like my AF is on its way so not too hopeful right now. I think the nausea sounds promising Cupcake!

looking4rainbow · 24/04/2014 20:47

It's sounding good cupcake! What test are you using tomorrow?

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 20:38

Just had chicken for dinner normally my favourite I've just literally forced myself to eat it as it was making me want to throw up. Eugh thinking about it is making me feel so queasy.
Really hope this means a bfp for me

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 20:04

Thanks everyone :)
Hi bugaboom good luck testing this weekend!

Ducky23 · 24/04/2014 20:02

Hi boom! Were due a few BFP's this weekend, if your a poas addict you'll fit in perfectly here!

I would have left it off going docs for a while but I have to have aspirin ASAP so had to do it soon. Bum! Every twitch I panic! Confused

looking4rainbow · 24/04/2014 19:56

Fx for tomorrow cupcake
Ducky I know how you feel. I wanted the bfp so much now Im wishing the next 8 wks away. Contemplating not even going doctor's for a few weeks. Try to relax though
Good luck to all those testing this weeked

I'm a bit late to this thread but have started ttc number 2 this month. Due to poas on Saturday but tried one on Tuesday (no idea why- bought a FR test on my way to work and got bfn). Can't remember doing one early the last time so don't know why I am less rational this time round! Keeping my fingers crossed for you all

lillamyy1 · 24/04/2014 17:47

Fingers xd cupcake! I'm not going to try again until sat... or so I'm telling myself Wink

I'm sure you'll be ok Ducky Thanks

I think I've got that metallic taste people talk about... could very well be making it up though!
Have also just had a massive nap and feel like body is made out of lead...

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 17:17

Easier said than done but try to forget about it and just use this time to relax and put ur feet up :)

Ducky23 · 24/04/2014 17:15

Fingers crossed for you cupcake!

I'm bloody terrified of this first scan, really worried they're guna say something bad and I'm stressing myself out Hmm

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 17:10

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 16:26

I hate gloss paint with a passion! I found out that there is something in gloss which makes it always turn yellow over time. So this house I have eggshell paint which doesn't and washes/wipes off things as water based :) sorry completely off the ttc subject but thought it was a useful tip (we are still doing up our new house and renovated one previously - hence why I have a hatred for gloss paint!!)

Lil - hope u get ur bfp before travelling! How long are you going for?

In other news, for some unknown and mad reason I poas last night. I have literally no idea why as it is far far far too early. It was just there and it beckoned me over to it!!

I'm off this afternoon as we buried my grandma's ashes at lunchtime :( too get pregnant this month would almost seem like a blessing from her in some way. I know she would have been overjoyed to have a great grandchild. Fingers crossed she's using her magic powers from up there!!

God, if I have to wait until I'm more than 12 DPO I'll be in Spain when I test!! Won't even be with anyone I know, going on a Spanish/English teacher exchange thing Shock

lillamyy1 · 24/04/2014 14:53

Thanks Cupcake Smile

Ducky23 · 24/04/2014 14:30

It's like toucher!!! And to make things better, one of the dogs has trod in a big blob of paint and climbed all over the black leather chairs Blush by the time I noticed it had dried and now I can't get it off!!!

Cupcake92 · 24/04/2014 14:16

Lillamyy with DS I was 17 DPO before I got a bfp and I got a negative at 14 DPO so don't give up hope!

And Ducky omg we did that! Doors radiators, skirting boards and windows it's awful lol!

lillamyy1 · 24/04/2014 14:10

That sounds really annoying Confused

Ducky23 · 24/04/2014 14:04

All the doors and skirting boards Hmm when we moved in the person must have been a heavy smoker cus everything was a horrible yellow and we just glossed over it without thinking but now every few months the yellow comes back through Confused apparently it will always do that now, we should hae cleaned it with vinigar first to get rid of the staining. Doh!

lillamyy1 · 24/04/2014 13:57

Ducky - what are you glossing?
