Hi ladies! I am 33 and have been trying to get preggars 6months now :( feels like forever. my partner has two children from prev relationship (marriage) and his ex fell pregnant straight away apparently, my younger sister-by 6 yrs is pregnant with her 2nd which happened 2 months into her relationship ! I have been really positive this month but my period is due wed and now i have brown spotting-meaning am out again. I guess i am just on a downer now... this sucks. I have a regular 28 day cycle and ovulate day 13 (opk) and have sex at least every other day! eating more healthily and tried fertilcm to help. I have worked with children for years and so long for my own. I am addicted to these threads and love how everyone is so supportive of one another! Fairy dust to us all!x

How's the trial going Mrsstickll?

Sizzle1981 · 06/09/2015 17:39

AF is due next week for me. This cycle was skipped in the end so I'm anxious for it to come and go.
How about you Babycakes?

Babycakes100 · 05/09/2015 20:15

Congrats Pallas! Sooo happy for you x
I haven't been on here in quite a while. How is everyone?

Sizzle1981 · 28/08/2015 17:59

My thoughts exactly!!!

mrsstickll · 28/08/2015 08:50

I was hoping I might invoke the law of sod by signing up as I need to wait for next cycle, but then if I don't get a bfp at least I can console myself with free stuff lol

Sizzle1981 · 27/08/2015 21:19

The box is huge! OH laughed at how excited I was to get it!!

mrsstickll · 27/08/2015 07:53

Sizzle1981, yes, stuff arriving on Tuesday hopefully

Sizzle1981 · 26/08/2015 19:59

My zero pack of the CB trial just arrived today Mrsstickll!
Are you on it?

mrsstickll · 26/08/2015 19:42

Hi how's everyone getting on? Congrats due to a couple of you! Not been on for ages. Did anyone get accepted onto the clearblue trial?

Sizzle1981 · 25/08/2015 18:54

That sucks Banana! Hope you had a good weekend away regardless.
Welcome Belgie - yes it is so hard to believe people just accidentally get pregnant! All those yes of being so scared! Lol
I'm on cd 7 today and feeling very positive! This has to be the month! I turn 34 at the end of Sept (Shock) so really really want this BFP this cycle.

Belgie · 24/08/2015 12:31

Hi there can I join? Smile

I'm in the same boat I think as many of you - 32 years old ttc for #1

Onto month 3 now of ttc but this month I am armed with Ovia and OPKs!

Who would have thought this can happen by accident!! Confused

bananamonkey · 24/08/2015 09:59

After waiting all week AF arrived first night of our weekend away, typical! Oh well at least I could enjoy a cocktail and some wine seems to have disappeared now after 2 days Confused

PallasCat · 23/08/2015 21:12

Thanks everyone! How are you all getting along?

bananamonkey · 23/08/2015 13:06

Congratulations!

Sunshinegirl2015 · 21/08/2015 22:06

Congrats Pallas!

SharyBobbins · 21/08/2015 19:42

Congratulations Pallas! Smile

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 21/08/2015 18:26

Good news Pallas! So when you tested before you went away it really was just too early.

Sizzle1981 · 21/08/2015 18:20

Aww congrats Pallas!!! x

PallasCat · 21/08/2015 17:42

I'm good thank you sunshine Smile
Getting occasional aches/cramps, a bit of tiredness, but otherwise fine. I actually fell over a couple of times last week, luckily both times on very soft surfaces - didn't think I was feeling dizzy exactly, but can only thing it's connected, as it's not normal for me! Anyway, being a bit careful now about moving around carefully!

How's everyone else?

sunshinegirl12 · 21/08/2015 16:54

Wow, congrats Pallas, that's lovely news! How are you feeling? xx

PallasCat · 21/08/2015 16:08

Checking back in after a while away to report... BFP Shock

Did an IC last Friday (at 3 days after AF due) with a very faint line, confirmed with FR and a faint but stronger line last Saturday. I've done a couple more ICs since, including this morning, which are now strong.

Completely surprised, though nothing like as shocked as DH - lucky he was lying down when I told him, or I think he would've fallen over!

Congrats to you too, Alpha!

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 19/08/2015 19:08

Hi ladies - just to say I am the poster directly above: I've decided to dereg and re-reg as a result of all this hacking stuff that's been going on. I'll still be here though!

CinderToffee · 19/08/2015 15:25

Indeed sunshine - I ovulated a bit late last month but I didn't realise, and when AF was "late" I was sure I'd be pregnant!

sunshinegirl12 · 19/08/2015 14:03

Thanks Cinder, atleast I won't be getting my hopes up too much that AF is late for another reason.

Banana, think thats probably just while your hormones settle down and should all go back to normal soon. Hopefully you'll know either way by friday, we are away this weekend too for husbands birthday so I'm going to have a couple of glasses with him.
