magpie it is hard to keep up the PMA on a daily basis I think we all struggle with it from time to time. I've had a fair few baby bombs recently too which are getting increasingly harder to smile at .... don't get me wrong .... I wouldn't wish this month to month tTC lark on anyone but its when people say 'oh we weren't even trying' ... how does this work!!??? Xxx

Good morning you busy ttc people! Wow, things happen quick on this thread! Fx for those of you waiting for your bfp the coming days. But let us also again remind each other that even if it takes time, it does not mean that anything is wrong! More than 80 percent will be pregnant within the first year of trying, and even if it takes longer, 50 percent of those not pregnant within a year will be during the second year. So while I totally share the impatience (eh, re my user name) I also think it's important to not stress about it too early. But it's very much allowed to be sad and angry if af turns up obviously.

On a less pma note: my cbfm (clearblue fertility monitor) showed high fertility this morning. This most likely imply that I'll ov during the weekend. When dp is away, argh!

Morning ladies, hope you all have a happy hump day! Me and dh are both new year babies (only one day in the middle) and always joking we would end up having a little one on that day. I also thought I didn't want a new year baby but now i just want one any day haha!!

Bella it's amazing how quickly it all consumes you isn't it? I think us woman are used to going and getting what we want!

Hippy more than half way through for you!! Be here before you know it!

Rainbow sorry you're having a hard time. Hope you get a good rest and the routine falls on to place soon.

Salem how are you today? Hope your spotting has stopped!

Moo* love your golf baby grow! And I totally love Eileen for the Egg haha.

Well I made it to CD28 for the first time in a while. However I always always come on two weeks to the day of my positive OPK so definitely due today I think. Boobs still really sore and blue but had some twinges in my back this morning which is normally a sign of her coming!

BellaMoon · 08/03/2017 07:40

@Charley2016 how are you chic? i'm hoping that BFN turning into a BFP and you'd just tested too early?? #BFPduedate

BellaMoon · 08/03/2017 07:37

thanks @Hippychic79 & @Moo31 - were always second guessing tests, online research etc. have woken this morn with v tender bazongas so i feel my egg (or the holy grail as my DH calls it) is on her merry way!

i'm still surprised at how much i'm TTC... i came aboard this bus with the "if it happens it happens" attitude... now i'm like "goddammit work ffs" attitude, have seen a major change in myself, all for the better i add.

also, i couldn't care less when my future baby is born. i'm a new year bday but it's done me no harm (in actual fact it adds to the celebrations) xx

Moo31 · 08/03/2017 07:29

Morning ladies! :) Happy hump day - especially to those in fw!! ;) xo

Hippychic79 · 08/03/2017 07:20

sarahb I'm sure your dh has relieved himself ... or is this another myth we've been lead to believe 😂

bella my opks did the same as yours ... do not stress .... says the nutter who poas x7 in one day

A Christmas baby isn't too bad. My lb was due Christmas Eve and that was fine. He actually came as a new year baby. My friend had hers Christmas Day. We have a separate birthday on the 22nd march for our lb. x

Hippychic79 · 08/03/2017 07:00

rose I know what you mean about a Xmas baby I used to think the same .... but now I just want it to happen, so I'll accept any month 😜

dolly sorry to hear you've been sick - I've been told by my nutritionist that morning sickness is caused by drop in blood sugar so the lack of food could explain it xxx

I'm struggling with a routine change for a toddler and I'm telling him the truth that it hurts me more than him! My ttc mindset is ok except at this moment in time I'm happy with only one!

Moo31 · 07/03/2017 22:23

Jeepers that's confusing @bella - I'm glad you got the answer you were looking for as I was about to try and Google it for you since I only use ICs so i don't know how the cb ones work.

@Salem fx it's not af and hope your dh appointment goes well tomorrow

@rainbow we're all allowed to cry kick and scream at some point on this ttc journey but tomorrow is another day and that means you are 1 day closer to your bfp so tomorrow pick yourself up and jump back on the pma bus!!!

@helly you should only drink it between cd1 and ov so I guess it doesn't matter (unless you're cutting out caffeine while ttc) although I would assume it's caffeine free anyway as I think most herbal / fruit teas are :)

hellybellyjellybean · 07/03/2017 21:45

Hope you're okay  @Rainbowsockstoday Flowers

Rainbowsockstoday · 07/03/2017 21:08

I'm currently crying into my pillow so answering your question @hellybellyjellybean is a welcome distraction.

BellaMoon · 07/03/2017 21:07

hi @SalemTheTeenageWitch i was just about to ask after you, are you now 12dpo? officially AF is late? oh i do hope it's not AF, hopefully your DH will get good news at GP too 🤞🏼FX

so re: my OV meltdown (which i just had in private you'll be glad i spared you the tantrum) apparently you can't use the actual pissy sticks from the digital readers, per their own instructions, not just good old google - PHEW!

hellybellyjellybean · 07/03/2017 21:03

Cheers @Moo31 and @Rainbowsockstoday (this @ thing is a revelation!)

Hope af stays away @SalemTheTeenageWitch,wine and chocolate if not!

Rainbowsockstoday · 07/03/2017 21:00

@hellybellyjellybean it's the right one. It's the one my mw suggested when I was approaching my due date and she wanted me ready (still went over and had to be induced) and it's caffeine free, or as much as it naturally can be, so fine to drink.

BellaMoon · 07/03/2017 20:45

CD12 ladies and POAS OPKs at 6pm, got big circle meaning low fertility, but was mega crampy so did another just now, still got the big circle meaning low fertility but check out the actual pissy sticks - anyone else think iv missed OV at some point today?

DH has googled it and he's saying the wonderful world wide web says the pissy sticks from the digital CB OPKs are irrelevant but they must mean something surely?

compared to last cycle, if i have OV'd already then it's happened 2/3 days early - damn you mother nature! shakes fist whyyy i ottaaa 👊🏼🤛🏼🤜🏼

SalemTheTeenageWitch · 07/03/2017 20:43

Hi guys, hope all of you are ok. Just a quick update from me this evening. I don't know if AF has arrived or not - brown spotting. Presume it is AF. The past 2 months I have spotted 2 days before AF. DH is off to docs tomorrow.
PMA to all xxx

hellybellyjellybean · 07/03/2017 20:39

This might sound stupid but is it caffeinated? Does that not go against the not drinking caffeine?!

Moo31 · 07/03/2017 20:22

Jeepers you lot have been busy today! Finally caught up! So glad to hear that oul witch hasn't shown up for anyone - great news!! To the few that got bfns today - please please don't loose hope. Stay positive!

To those who have returned - welcome back!

helly - that's the one I was looking for but couldn't get in tesco! Start drinking!! - 2/3 cups a day from now to ov Grin

Ernie the egg - fab suggestion, it's got a ring to it!!

EMHW I firstly showed him the pee stick to confirm I wasn't seeing things, he made me to a "proper" test (ie frer) and then I remembered I had this in the drawer so told him to forgot what he'd seen and gave him this! We're still in disbelief lol got my 1st midwife app for 21st March. I'm so apprehensive that something will go wrong but I'm trying not to think about it and just enjoy being pregnant!

dolly so sorry to hear about your morning sickness hopefully a one off and it doesn't continue for the next 7 weeks :(

Anna and Amanda I am so sorry for your losses, your time will come soon! I have every faith and everything crossed for you.

Ps oh has suggested Eileen for the Egg #comeondoreen #comeoneileen haha!!

Flipping heck just wrote a long message and it deleted it, argh! Anyways! Been off here for two days and it's been crazy busy, loving keeping up with the pma, after a bit of a low couple of days regarding af am back with full abandon ready to jump my DH! It's cd8 tomorrow and starting with smep, DH doesn't know just going to let him think I want sex that much!! I've got some of the tea I think, is this right?? Does anyone know how long you should take it for in your cycle?

EMHW123 · 07/03/2017 20:09

Ha! I suggest Ernie, Doreen and Ernie make a great couple 😂
