Happy birthday jennie and happy International Women's day to everyone

Welcome MrsJo

Kellz I've still got my fx for you.

I got the birthday present I wanted, a BFP. Excited but also cautious as there are a few things that are worrying me. The line is not very strong, I still haven't had many symptoms and when I had my CP it happened on CD34 and I'm only on CD32 now so there is still time.

Trying to put these worries aside for now and just be happy. What will be will be I suppose.

Kellz92 · 07/03/2016 23:09

Tomorrow will be cd1, after spotting today she's arriving. A lot lighter and pain free than usual but she's coming, temp will drop tomorrow probably. Not using opks this month but think I'll still temp. Only good thing is I'll get to drink on holiday next week lol X

MrsJoJo · 07/03/2016 21:46

Hi ladies, I've been following/ lurking on this thread for ages and think it's about time I introduced myself!

My DS is 8 and I always wanted him to have a sibling. His dad, my ex had other ideas but I now have a lovely DP (with two DS) and we are keen (mad enough) to add to our brood of boys!

I am 37 on cycle 5, CD13... It took 11 cycles to conceive last time and I don't expect anything to happen quickly. DP works away just now so we sometimes miss our window. Venting because I think we have now missed our chance this cycle which coincided with this weekend when he was home. I felt sick, we had all our DC at home and a stressful situation with his ex meant we didn't feel like getting busy! I track my cycle with Ovia but don't use ov sticks because I want to give it six months first... I don't poas unless af is a few days late but have such regular 25 day cycles that this hasn't happened yet.

Usually really relaxed about all this but having a wobble today and could do with some encouragement!

Peyia · 07/03/2016 18:44

Ah sorry I missed AF got you mimi and others (can't remember everyone's name!)

Good luck for next cycle. Will continue lurking and hoping for you all.

CocklesandMussels · 07/03/2016 18:14

Hello myfriends! Lovely scan picture peiya, congratulations.vfc for you theants and kellz over the next couple of days. And good luck this cycle to mimi and abc. Jennie have a great birthday tomorrow and hope you get plenty of babymaking done!
I'm ok, nervous as anything. Trying to keep myself calm and tell myself that the chances are good for a happy outcome. My husband hasn't uncrossed his fingers since Thursday. He's getting quite bad cramp now!
[waves] to everyone else x

theAntsareMyFriends · 07/03/2016 16:10

peyia thats a lovely picture. A big head means lots of brains!

I love the myfriends thing. Its such a good way to address everyone. Real life strangers who are an amazing network of support to each other.

cockles and pulled hope all is going well with you

jennie good luck with the baby making.

mimi and abc sorry AF got you. Fingers crossed for this cycle.

kellz any news?

AF 2 days late but getting cramps like she will arrive v soon. Got some spotting on Sunday and thought I'd started. Told DP and was surprised to see him burst into tears. We had a big cry about it but then no more spotting and no proper AF.

Last poas on Friday and BFN so decided that that was that and not going to keep torturing myself. If I'm not PG I'll find out soon enough when AF arrives and if I am (unlikely) then a few days waiting won't make any difference.

Trying to be realistic but its so hard not to get your hopes up.

Gx91 · 07/03/2016 16:06

Hey ladies hope u all had a great Mother's Day Flowers X

Great scan pic peyia ! Glad alls well with the lil ( big ) guy lol X
I'm stopping the birth plan aswell as last time was chaos ! Very tempted just go go for an ECS this time as that's what happened in the end of the last labour , was very long and exhausting ! X
Mimi how r u him ? AF showing signs of leaving ? X
Shame about AF abc fx for u this cycle X
Kellz keen to hear how ur doing hope AF stayed away and ur temps stayed high ! Let us know how u get on X
Jen good luck dtd over the next week or so ( sending BFP vibes )! X
Pulled and cockles hope u had a nice wkend how have u been feeling ? Tired much ? Lol x

( waves ) to everyone X

Not much to report here apart from looking for a decent price gender scan , curiosity is getting the better of me ! X

Peyia · 07/03/2016 15:42

Hi everyone!

Hope the weekend was good for all.

No birth plan yet mimi, not sure I'll bother actually. I find that having expectations lead to dissappontment. I'll just see how I get on and hopefully it's quick and pain free (mostly)like last time.

Had my scan today, all fine. It's so nerve racking when they check the major organs etc. The sonographer mentioned he's not a small baby, his head barely fits the scan pic Shock

Anyone ttc baby #2 continued?

abcdemma · 06/03/2016 09:24

Happy Mother's Day all!
AF has made her first appearance since my coil removal at Christmas! Which means I'm not broken after all and we can start trying in earnest once she leaves! Hooray!
Hope everyone has a lovely day with their little ones GrinFlowers

CocklesandMussels · 06/03/2016 09:12

Happy Mother's Day #myfriends! Hoping for a whole gang of baby #2s for next Mother's Day Flowers

Kellz92 · 06/03/2016 08:51

Happy mothers day. :)

Just tested no sign of second line, and not pregnant. When does temp drop for AF, mine went up but I feel like AF could arrive. Had a bit of pinky cm through the night but today its gone was a slight hint of brown but not much. No cramps nothing so its unusual. May arrive tomorrow xx

jennielm · 06/03/2016 08:43

Happy mothers day #myfriends. Flowers

Xx

Kellz92 · 05/03/2016 16:11

Loki I had read that too, but just becaus the ones I've done before have n vet had a second line and this one does, doesn't mean it's positive :) I'll just keep testing since I have loads of them sticks and I. Not using the monitor again :)

Gx with DD I tested when AF was a few days late and got a faint line so I. Not expecting much in next few days. Just got my fx :) xx

Gx91 · 05/03/2016 13:06

Kellz I would say that sounds about right , holding out hope that u get a BFP soon , I see a faint line on ur dig I hope it gets stronger ! R u testing tomorrow ? I got a positive at 13 dpo and it was still super faint , good luck ! X
Welcome wanabamum - I wouldn't rule anything out until ur sure it's AF as it very well could b implantation , it's hard to tell , mibi try waiting ( I know it's hard ) a few more days and test if it's not AF , good luck ! X

wannabeamum91 · 05/03/2016 11:08

Hey guys, I'm new.

So I'm another TTC who has been on the tww train!!! Agh. Bfn so far and I expected it cause it's like way early but I was reading everyone's posts, so I felt hope.

Lastnight/early hours I turned 11DPO and up to then I had all these symptoms from nausea, sore and achy bbs! Then about 2am today I (tmi) wiped and there was pink blood, it was on and off all night, then this morning it was like a brown. Should I give up and just put my hands up to AF again? Angry

Loki17 · 05/03/2016 10:41

That's interesting! Fingers crossed for you x

Kellz92 · 05/03/2016 10:35

Just going to wait and see, if AF arrives, she arrives I just start again xx

Kellz92 · 05/03/2016 10:27

Yeah it is, That's why I'm not really counting it. But all the times I've done them before I've never had a second line so thought it was different from normal xx

Loki17 · 05/03/2016 10:06

Is that from a digital? I read on here that they always have faint second lines on them. I don't know for sure. Try a frer?

Kellz92 · 05/03/2016 09:47

Gx I normally ov on cd17 but this month was 19 so you reckon it will be an extra 2 days?
Loki thank you :)
cockles I'm really hoping so
mimi since I have loads of pregnancy test sticks for my monitor I did one, the test said not pregnant but the test had a faint second line? Not sure what that means

Xxx

Anyone ttc baby #2 continued?
Gx91 · 05/03/2016 09:11
