Hippychic79 · 11/04/2017 12:55

So we are rolling on to thread #five –
We are not giving up, our PMA is still alive.

Put pure and simply,
We want to have babies,
God, please help everyone of these lovely ladies.

We support each other,
We are funny and kind,
And we will not be giving up,
Until we see that thick BFP line.

PMA went awol as my grandad died suddenly, and friend announced she was pregnant the day before the anniversary of my ectopic and is due the same time I would have been, and it was an accident!

But back now, think I might ovulate today, so hopefully I've done what I can!

Seems I missed a bfp too? Congrats Soph!

Thanks moo I'm not sure whether it's perseverance or fear to be honest ... I'm cd27 today so this is the earliest bfp due date but my cycle is between 26-30 days so the next few days are a #mindfuck ...
I cant really test in front of dp so I'll do it Saturday morning as he's at work.
Eeeeeeeek #excitedvsnervous

magpie thank you, I've got more pineapple today, fortunately their tasting pretty good at the moment, even the core.

anna nail on the head Hun, everyone is on a different path and more often than not to the same destination (house, marriage, kids)... some people will take the short cut and others will take the long way round .... I guess all we can do is enjoy the view along the way :)))

amanda one of my friends is 42, skipped a few pills and is now pregnant .... it goes to show really that although we can help the situation ultimately it is down to the universe and the trusting the timings of our life ....

Sorry I have to keep repeating the trusting the timings thing as it really does help keep me grounded at 11 dpo 😝

Fmu wasted again / didn't test

Xxx

AmandaP86x · 03/05/2017 23:12

Also I feel a bit ratty today! Maybe tiredness from the nightshift but feels like PMT 😭

AmandaP86x · 03/05/2017 22:57

I kno the girl who done my eyebrows is pregnant and I was like aw where u trying she's like omg no I don't even want kids I must have just missed a pill or something!!!

breathe breathe* lol 😭😭😭

Anna2006 · 03/05/2017 21:11

Yes very true ladies. I do the same. Why them and not me scenario. But realised them getting a pregnancy and a baby isn't stopping me from getting mine so it shouldn't really concern me. It was obviously there time and their path.

Deffo agree Magpie. Other people are not our concern. We have to look after number one don't we!

MissMagpie · 03/05/2017 21:03

Good pineapple action Hippy.

MissMagpie · 03/05/2017 21:02

I have the same thoughts. There was a very overweight pregnant woman smoking outside the GP surgery the other day and it does make you think why them and why not me, when I am trying to do everything you should.

But I have decided that negative thoughts about others need to be turned into PMA for myself so I try and stamp them out immediately (not easy for someone with a tendency to criticise others a bit unfairly sometimes!). Who cares about them at the end of the day? They aren't my concern.

Thanks archies ... I know my friend didn't mean to be rude but it was just mega insensitive.... and I'm not gonna lie .... doing all these proactive things does make me feel like I'm doing something but then on the other hand it gets frustrating when you hear of other people who just fall and they're like 'what do you mean pineapple aids implantation' !!!! I'm surprised I don't look like a pineapple this wk 🤣🤣🤣

ArchiesMamaBird · 03/05/2017 20:49

Oh Hippy, I definitely would have smacked her!! I have a friend who got pregnant on her first month of trying and when she was 6 months gone a group of us went for dinner and she was bragging about how it happened straight away so they must be a super fertile couple. Whilst I was sat there opposite her after I'd been trying for 5 months and she knew about it Hmm although tbf we didn't try for DS and it just happened so I couldn't be too angry with her. It is so annoying though!!

Yeah one my friends gets wrecked a lot and she said to me the other day 'oh there's you trying so hard and it happened to me by accident lol' ... she had an abortion... I understand why cuz she didn't like the fella but I swear ... friend or not ... she nearly got a #throatpunch 🤣

CakesALot · 03/05/2017 19:37

You spend all those years on contraception being told you mustn't miss a pill because you'll get pregnant. That you need to take all these extra precautions as though getting pregnant were the easiest thing on the planet. Hmmm!!

AmandaP86x · 03/05/2017 19:34

Yay defo hoping for sometime BFP

Was talking about stuff to DP today and just how people take vitamins, stop drinking, use preseed, drink teas etc etc and still can't fall preg and then there's people out there who are drug addicts and don't look after themselves fall preg very easily. Seems unfair isn't it

Yeh we still live in a society where we want everything 'now' and never want to have to wait.

But cest la vie.

Let hope for some good news and few more BFPs over the next week

Cakes Steal away :) lol #sharingiscaring as Bella says :)

I just think its mental how we're all so worried about time - and it's not necessarily age related.... I guess we're all just accustomed to the instant society that we're living in....

@Hippychic79 I didn't either but dhs mum reckons he slept through at 3 weeks!! And we got a good sleeper. Worried for the next one! She still likes her middle of the night parties sometimes too though @ArchiesMamaBird so I feel your pain!!!

Love that affirmation @Hippychic79. Stealing. It will happen when it happens xx
