This thread moves so quickly. I'm only away for a few days and I can't catch up!

pulled I'm so sorry to hear of your problems. I hope it become clearer soon and that you get good news.

hope so pleased for you and good luck ahead. Its so true that the BFP is just the start of the journey but good luck with it.

songs welcome. My DS is 2 and I'm on cycle 8 trying for no2. I'm also feeling desperate for a sibling for DS and don't want the gap to grow too much bigger.

it was DS birthday yesterday. Had a lovely day but when I'd imagined celebrating his second birthday I'd always imagined I'd have a baby bump. I'm trying to not think too hard about the future any more as it get me down when it doesn't happen. I feel like I'm always picturing that moment in the future but with a baby and it may not happen. I planned on being PG by Christmas but that didn't happen, then by DS birthday and that hasn't happened and now I'm secretly hoping it'll happen before my birthday (March) but it probably won't. Its so hard to stay hopeful.

kellz and cockles we a pretty much all in sync. I'm on CD11. DTD every night until March!

Hi! Please can I join? We've just started TTC #2. Our DD has just turned 2. AF is due tomorrow and I am pretty sure that the witch is on her way, booooo. How long have you all been trying for #2. DD took 6 months but that was actually 4 cycles and 2 v early mc along the way. I'm trying to be more relaxed this time around but I am desperate to give DD a sibling. Xx

Kellz92 · 15/02/2016 19:25

Oh goodness bet you got a freight . Glad there's no damage xx

Gx91 · 15/02/2016 14:30

Kellz that sounded like a great bonus ! Glad u had a good night X
We got DD looked after on Friday night and ate out so I suppose that was our treat , all though was woken up with the police at the door at midnight saying our car had rolled into the back of another ! Think our handbreak needs tightening as it was on a small hill
Weirdly there was no damage to either cars so it must have rolled very slowly X

Kellz92 · 15/02/2016 14:00

Hi Gx! Im currently CD 10, so getting closer. Temping this cycle again so hoping i see a pattern as last cycle i temped on i didnt have a pattern.

For valentines day we went to the cinema to see Deadpool as DD was with my mum. On our way home mum phoned to say DD wanted a sleepover so we got to go for tea. Was nice :)

Congrats hope, we're all on the same journey so I don't think anyone would mind you saying you got your bfp. Deffs lurk away.

When I had my bfp with DD I didn't worry at all about mc, but I'm already worried about getting a bfp after losing a baby last year so your worrying time isn't over. But I wish you a very happy and healthy 9 months. :)

Xxx

Hopelass · 14/02/2016 10:04

Thank you Jennie Thanks

Hoping all goes well for your mil and fx for testing this month for you! Not long now!! X

jennielm · 14/02/2016 09:46

Congratulations hope!! Flowers I'm sure that no-one here resents you your BFP, just hope to join you very soon!! Also, from what I've seen, they'll be rooting for your 1st scan to go well and letting us know gender (if you find out) so i reckon lurk away!! (i'm obviously one of the ones wanting to know too!!) congratulations again.

Hope everyone elses Sunday is relaxing!!

MIL is home but has confirmed tumours just above left ear; a tiny cluster of 5 1mm ones. One burst, causing stroke, and they are having a meeting on Tuesday to decide next moves...operation etc...she is forgetting the odd word but is otherwise in good health so fingers crossed it gets resolved safely soon.

It's 3 days dpo for me and I'm symptom spotting terribly...have sore boobs, feel sick, peeing alot and constantly thirsty...probably just wishful thinking and trying not to get my hopes up too much. Confused

Hopelass · 14/02/2016 08:20

Well the faint line I posted on Friday turned into a bfp and I feel quite guilty saying so but didn't just want to slope off. I'm so sorry for those feeling down about ttc and I know what a rollercoaster it is. Even getting a bfp doesn't stop the worrying and thinking will it last etc...
Best of luck to all of you, I hope the journey is kind to you and you get your bfp's very soon. I'll continue to lurk if I may. Thanks

Kellz92 · 13/02/2016 20:15

Jennie that's very true, it will happen when time is right X

jennielm · 13/02/2016 11:22

Oh pulled, that's so awful for you. I know that life can be so unfair sometimes but i honestly believe that what will be, will be. I am praying for you that this is your month and that it is just later than you thought. Keep us posted.

Fuzzy, cockles and kellz i know it's hard but try to keep positive and not lose focus of what is important; your other halves, your child and you are already a family...another baby will obviously add to that immensely but don't let it rip you apart. That's what I'm having to keep reminding myself, and again, what will be, will be...but i won't lose what i have now in pursuit of it. I'm sorry, i don't mean to sound preachy, high and mighty or anything like that, i just know that it can tear you apart and besides, dtd should always be fun.Wink

Hugs to all of you along with FlowersCakeWineChocolate
Xxxxxxx

Kellz92 · 13/02/2016 11:00

Thinking of you pulled hope everything goes well.

Fuzzy* it's horrible but I'm sure it will be my turn soon

Xx

Pulledapart2015 · 13/02/2016 10:23

thank you hopelass xxx

Pulledapart2015 · 13/02/2016 10:22

thanks fuzzy and cockles means a lot hearing comforting words.

fuzzy I should be around 7 weeks but they think it's only 4-5 weeks so I must have ovulated late I think. im hoping the blood tests show something positive.

TTC is real rollacoaster and then once you get ur BFP the ride continues. praying all of us get an easier time ahead xxx

Hopelass · 13/02/2016 10:16

Thinking of you pulled hugs Thanks what a rollercoster for you xx

CocklesandMussels · 13/02/2016 10:06

pulled I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through at the moment. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it all works out for you

FuzzyOwl · 13/02/2016 09:42

It is horrible, isn't it Kellz but you aren't failing at all.

I hope we all get there too Cockles. Quite often DTD has lost being fun here. I think it is inevitable when you ttc for a long time. Hope you are having a good weekend too.

Oh Pulled. Big hugs. I had a mmc a couple of years ago and still remember the devastation but one thing I did take from it is that even sonographers who do these scans all the time really can't tell at the first scan whether or not you have miscarried or whether you implanted late and everything is absolutely fine. How many weeks should you be? I think an ectopic can be seen from really early on as I know someone who was diagnosed during a scan at 5 weeks. Glad you are having blood tests done as that is a good way to check things in between scans. Thinking of you.
