Hi everybody hope everybody is well, i really thought i was pregnant this month i was 2 days late than af came.

Good luck divamummy, hope you get a BFP.

I can understand the temptation.

Really good CHEAP ones on e-bay but not sure how long they would take to arrive...could be next day though!!!

Yep due (I think depending on my messed up cycle ) that I should be due on the 11th or 12th so hopefully only 5 days to go!! God I can't wait trying to think about other things and not the AF feelings that I've got in my tummy at the mo?!!

Went to see the nurse today as I've got TERRIBLE thrush.. she said it could be that I am pregnant and that i've got thrush due to hormone changes.
I am still keeping my fingers crossed.

Nearly bought a load of early bird pregnancy kits off e-bay yesterday so that I could start testing on Saturday.. but talked myself out of it as I already have 2 kits at home.

Only 5 days and counting.....

lol

Bubble78 i live near chigwell in essex, where about are you????.

bubble78 · 03/10/2006 23:10

how are you finding the early bird we did the hanen programme was quite usefull. he has help at play school now which we are finding to be very good. hestarts school next sept and is going to main streem school.

i hoping second child will be here before he goes dont want to much upset at once.
can i ask where in uk you are? musa

OP posts:
MUSA · 03/10/2006 21:08

He has just turned 3 and has started to use a few words, i have just started the early bird course which i find very useful, im sure when you have your secind baby you will never look back, be worth it you would'nt change them for the world. I was also in two minds last year, but the way i see it is you know more the second time round.

bubble78 · 03/10/2006 19:59

he is 3 and a half still non verbal but making progress all the time how about yours???? will this be your first after your autistic son? its a big decision but i hope it will be worth it

OP posts:
MUSA · 03/10/2006 19:29

Bubble78 i wish you all the luck, i know how you feel. My son is also autistic and i also felt that i was not gonna have any more.

Me and dh also changed our minds to, i have also started ttc, how old is your son?.

bubble78 · 03/10/2006 15:28

took my last pill in july then waited till i had had septembers AF then started BD like mad ..

OOh I hope you are taht would be fab!!

I came off my pill mid packet had taken 10 days worth of pills and this subsequently messed up my cycle for August ended up having 2 AFs. One I think was not AF just bleed after finishing pills.Not sure really??? Then had AF after 27 days and I had been like a clock every 28 days bang on 7am.So I'm praying that I worked out my OV dates correctly but i'm not temping or anything else yet as it still seems like early days.

What about everyone else?

I did read on another thread about Red Clover? I think helping fertlity. Does anyone know??

Anyway keeping fingers crossed for everyone still.
(Not quite sure how the little faces work as I can only work the smiley one as i'm new to this and all the abbreviations.)

lovelylou · 03/10/2006 13:31

how long have you been trying. I have just started trying for my second and also very excited

divamummy · 03/10/2006 13:17

yes, defo impatient ttc club
i havent checked since last satruday. and promised i will be good girl and not testing till AF day or after.
sound silly, but im 99%sure im pg
so roll on week

saf1 · 03/10/2006 12:42

dON'T KNOW IF THIS HELPS BUT WITH MY DD2 i had a test via gp and it came back negative so waited til 2 days past AF and had a positive on a home test kit. I think there are certain hormones that only show up to make a positive pregnancy test later on.
So I would try and hold on until next Tuesday or Wednesday if you can.
I'm defo trying to ..she says trying to convince herself it'll be worth the wait.
Have had slight AF feelings today though NOT what I want to be feeling at all.
So don't do any more testing as you'll just get disappointed and it'll work out cheaper in the long run just waiting as you won't have to keep buying loads of kits.
LOL

bubble78 · 03/10/2006 11:36
