Brilliant news Sizzle - hope the treatment isn't too awkward either.

Glad I'm not alone in my crackersness! I have to let it out here or it'll start leaking out into real life. more than it is already

DTD 3 days in a row now (and think I had +ve yest as line has gone today). DH however thinks the past couple of times that (may be tmi, sorry) not much has come out - and I have to agree it feels less damp than usual...not sure what this means!!

birchygoo · 09/07/2015 22:28

Sizzle great news - I'm sure you're glad to have home home.

Indom - I think we all do the exact same. I've had headaches since before ovulation but to me this means something is diff so this might be the month .... Crazy thinking and I cant even begin to explain how I would link those!

Just trying to catch up!! Welcome newcomers! Fx for those due to test soon and for a darker line for Carrot.

OH is coming home from hospital tomorrow!!! We've been told - he had a virus at some point that has damaged his bone marrow. Now his marrow is either not making enough red blood cells or is just making crap ones. He will have to have weekly blood tests and transfusions (if results are low) until we get the results of other tests. OH brought up ttc (as we were sitting outside the labour ward last night lol) and we are both still on the same page about still trying but will obviously wait until he is feeling much stronger/know a bit more)

Ooh, exciting Carrot!

Hi new folks.

You may wish to skip the ramblings of this crazy person...

I'm up to 7DPO (I think), and the latest can't-be-symptoms-cos-it's-too-early are waking up with trapped wind (every single day with DS - probably had it since but conveniently forgotten), and post-work sofa-naps (think I've had a couple now, probably just tired). And headaches - I don't often get them, but remember I did with DS.

The rational part of my brain knows this is nonsense and likely to be psychosomatic and/or confirmation bias. But the irrational part is whispering away... Hmm and tbh I'm enjoying indulging it right now. (I'm sure that'll change in a few months).

...told you it was nuts. As you were.

PallasCat · 09/07/2015 19:17

Busy day on here!
Crunchy that's rubbish. Sad
Welcome Cear and fruitsalad.

Hi Cears! When is af next due? Have you ovulated this month? Fx it's a sort bus ride for you

I had tummy cramps since teatime yesterday and had sore boobs since Tuesday! Even more sensitive today and feel huge Confused

Really hoping these are good signs but also know they are af signs too!
Had a cheeky test today-bfn but only 10dpo will try again tomorrow Smile

cearstaidh · 09/07/2015 16:53

I'm 26 TTC#1 First month of trying... What else do you want to know?? I'm quite excited!!!

Sorry flat brain like a sieve. When's the surgery?

OP posts:
FlatWhiteToGo · 09/07/2015 15:43

Carrot - no testing for me this month as I'm not allowed to get pregnant due to surgery. It's actually been quite nice NOT obsessing about TTC for a few weeks. I'll definitely be jumping on the August bus with you all and it will be great to have a proper catch up with you all! Although from the looks of things I tentatively hope you won't be on the August bus, ha ha! Although many people choose to stay on so will be great to have you Smile

3Princes99 · 09/07/2015 13:40

Thanks Carrot! Hoping to see some bfp Grin

Happy Birthday anyway Raluca I hope it improves. That's so annoying about the transport issue. Can the fracture clinic not arrange it if the GP is being a problem?

OP posts:
Itsme247 · 09/07/2015 12:57

carrot it's the 16th July. Bloods for me and a SA for hubby - he's really not looking forward to it! I'm not sure what is really involved or what the next steps are if I'm honest !

RalucaMorena · 09/07/2015 12:53

Carrot he stepped on a risen piece of pavement in the dark. Currently at knives with gp who won't ask for transportation to get him to fracture clinic because the system hasn't updated since last night and she is not aware of his broken foot. All other services said no problem if gp calls. Oh! And today is my bday! I'm having a good one. .. am I not? !
