Lol imagine that, you all must have been thinking "how greedy is she" lol. 1 would be magical for me right now.

Mumof1sofar · 19/05/2015 19:38

Congrats teenie

Southy84 · 19/05/2015 19:28

Congratulations teenie!

brooke I have a friend who had awful period type cramps, she didn't think she was pregnant as they were so awful, she then found out she was pregnant and everything was ok. I know it probably won't make you feel better, but sometimes the pains are ok. I'm thinking of you though, and I would probably hassle the Dr to be honest just for peace of mind x

Welcome kleine

rachel your post did make me Shock when I saw it, ttc #10 would be pretty amazing Grin good luck on your journey and welcome to the bus

Pogmella · 19/05/2015 19:25

That's Ok! Was intimidated by the wonder woman with 9 kids! X

Rachelc82 · 19/05/2015 19:21

Sorry. New to this

Rachelc82 · 19/05/2015 19:21

Ohh think I miss understood stats a bit. I'll try again lol. Age 33. TTC #1 cycle 10. OTD 2/6/15

Pogmella · 19/05/2015 19:06

I asked when I had my implanon out 88 and the nurse weighed me told me my bmi was ok and to take Folic acid and that was it- she said unless I had a risky factor like being a heavy smoker etc it wasn't neccesary.

KleineDracheKokosnuss · 19/05/2015 18:47

Ahhh. That makes sense. Can someone add me to the stats please? Age 32, cycle 1, ttc #2, OTD 10 June.

I've not been to the GP. I generally avoid GPs, and there'd be no way to get an appointment anyhow...!

Rachelc82 · 19/05/2015 18:29

Sorry to hear your pain Brooke, I hope it turns out ok x

Brooke113 · 19/05/2015 18:27

I don't even think there's anything the doc can do yet, I just want confirmation that the pregnancy is OK, as these cramps are killing me, paracetamol isn't touching the pain and they're there all day :(

Rachelc82 · 19/05/2015 18:26

Hello everyone. Can I get on the bus. Me and DP TTC #10. Start of the tww today. Anxious but been here so many times before Hmm. AF due 2 June.

Brooke113 · 19/05/2015 18:11

88 I did go to my gp before we started trying, mainly so it was down in my notes so they can see for themselves how long we've been ttc.

teenie huge Congratulations to you!

I am having awful cramps again :( I'm so fed up, think I may phone the doctors tomorrow, as these are really getting to me, I really don't think things are good :(

88blueshoes · 19/05/2015 18:06

Congratulations teenie! This really does seem to be a lucky bus.

Welcome kleine! I assumed that OTD meant official test date, not sure though.

So I've just been reading the mumsnet TTC pages and was alarmed to see that they recommend a visit to your GP before you start trying. I have not done this. I have been taking folic acid, trying to eat healthier etc but it didn't even occur to me to go and see my GP before I'm pregnant. It's always so hard to get appointments that I'm amazed they even do pre-conception checks.

Have others been to see their GP?

KleineDracheKokosnuss · 19/05/2015 17:46

Congratulations Teenie

So ladies - I am joining you this month as I'm finally biting the bullet and going for number 2. Which is slightly scary.

Question on the stats though - what is OTD (it's been a while...)?

TeenieDeenie · 19/05/2015 17:40

Oh my god. I've just taken a FRER and the test line is darker than the control... I am shaking... BFP!!!!

Thisisbonkers · 19/05/2015 15:58

Hi birchy, I don't, no. I ran out of the pee stick things over the bank holiday weekend so that's just over two weeks ago (they didn't show a 'go go go!' signal).

So basically I have to be patient. I'm not very good at that! Grin

wishiwaspregnant · 19/05/2015 15:53

Congrats pulpi so exciting! You obviously impressed at interview! Is the new job within the same company? As how will mat pay work?
Brooke hang in there you will be fine!
Lots of love and luck to everyone on dtd and POAS! Xx

birchygoo · 19/05/2015 15:45

Hi thisisbonkers do you know when you ovulated?

I have up to 37 day cycles but my af nearly always comes on around 14 days post ovulation

Thisisbonkers · 19/05/2015 14:19

Gah. This is all so frustrating, as I have an irregular cycle it's impossible to know when I'm due on. It can be from anywhere from 28 days to 35, but has been as late as 41 (when not ttc so you can imagine the panic!).
Today is day 31. A test on Saturday (28) and this morning came back negative (BFN? Still trying to learn the jargon!). I'm not feeling particularly close to period starting, although I have gone spotty (I swear my face was clearer as a teenager Angry) and my trousers are snug (I was away with work last week so..!).

Could/should I expect a faint line on a test by now if I AM pregnant? Or am I having a long cycle and just have to wait it out? I swore I wasn't going to get obsessive about this Hmm

Brooke113 · 19/05/2015 14:03

Congratulations on the job pulpi

Fingers crossed those two days were the lucky days trixie

nightandthelight · 19/05/2015 13:07

TrixieRay · 19/05/2015 12:58

Congrats Pulpi, hopefully you will get more good news soon Smile

I know Night- had our pre IVF check up yesterday so all feeling very real. All getting put back two weeks though as the clinic only do egg collection/transfer as certain points in the month so have to take medication to delay AF - will still do a test when I would be due though just in case!

birchygoo · 19/05/2015 12:56

yehh pulpi things happen in 3's so lets hope a BFP is one of those 3 :-)

Pogmella · 19/05/2015 12:49

Yay! Go pulpi!

nightandthelight · 19/05/2015 12:33

Whoop whoop pulpi! Major congrats :)

You are still in with a chance Trixie and if it doesn't work you will be starting IVF, so exciting!
