PMA Express to BFP Thread #5

961 replies

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.

Yay bfps!!!! Congrats guys!

How far are all the grads now?

8 weeks 6 days here. First mw apt next week at 9+5

At least it'll seem like a shorter wait until the scan. Speaking of which... someone says hi! Apologies if I've posted that before!

Those still due a BFP, honestly I can't recommend a relaxed month enough, and I'm sure I'm not the only one!

and YES feels like Dolly and Moo should be thinking about schools already xxx

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:14

haha @ArchiesMamaBird brilliant that you've made up. don't get me wrong, sometimes a good wee fight is good for the soul but making up is even better!! #megapumpage #loveyour3things

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:13

thanks @Moo31 a BFP should come with an instruction manual shouldnt it? do this first, that later etc! i have friends and family with children but i think they'll be frightened to tell me too much as i'm quite the independent type BUT i don't feel that just now at all, i'm feeling very needy actually #weirdhormones x

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 10:11

ohhh @Hippychic79 how exciting, an engagement on the horizon! is he planning it for when you're away your hols? how romantic is that? #loveisintheair #megapumpagethatnight 💍

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 10:05

Also, does anyone feel like it's been ages since Moo and Dolly got BFP's?

It's crazy, feels like it was months ago and you should be halfway through your pregnancies by now! Where is this year going?

ArchiesMamaBird · 19/04/2017 10:04

Morning Ladies. Loving the positive vibes Bella

Here's my list:

  1. I have the most gorgeous DS who is an absolute angel and I can't wait to pick him up from nursery tonight
  2. Me and DH made up last night and had fab spontaneous make up sex Wink
  3. Today is my Friday (I only work 3 days a week) so I'm looking forward to 4 days of fun with DS

Flash sorry that AF arrived, but you are now one cycle closer to your BFP Flowers

Moo31 · 19/04/2017 09:34

Eek June is almost "next month" @hippy Grin

@Flash so sorry she arrived. Bitch. Flowers

@Bella I saw a midwife at my gp surgery first but should have seen gp first apparently to get a referral to the hospital so I did things arse about face! Just meant I had to wait longer to get a date for 12 week scan. So it is great you are getting the ball rolling! I used to take a daily antihistamine, not a strong one though just an over the counter one but i haven't actually noticed a difference. Hopefully they can sort you out with something! Maybe something natural you could try?

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 09:32

aw sorry @Flashinthepan doing 3 things today on cd1 is bloody hard so well done chic. i think cd1-4 we should all be allowed a holiday, to somewhere sunny without people around, i'm sure crime rates would go down if we were on a beautiful deserted island for those 4 days #lovely3things xx

Flowers flash sorry to hear af arrived ... completely understand how pma destroying she can be .... love your 3 things though ... I always think the same as your #3 .... grateful that I have a dp that loves me and looking forward to when he proposes to me in June .... I hate writing my dp on here ... I am a great believer in marriage ... sadly my first one didn't work out but it's made me realise how much better my relationship is with my dh to be 😝

So af arrived, and PMA is in short supply but three good things are:

  1. It's sunny again!
  2. Having a lovely steak salad for dinner tonight.
  3. My DH is great and we have a lovely life even without babies in it.
BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 08:51

love the 3 things posts ladies, love love love it #happyvibes. on a side note, what the fuck has happened to pharrell williams? he looks the exact same as he did 20 years ago! #goodgenes

@Moo31 i have a GP appt on friday afternoon just to get the ball rolling. iv heard from friends that i don't need a GP appt i should have just called the MW but i also take a strong antihistamine, usually daily, that i know i can't now so ill need to discuss this with the GP too. god knows how i am going to get through a summer without it but needs must.

so glad to hear your sickness is better, that's fab news xxx

Sorry I missed a load of posts just now ....

Morning moo

My 3 things are -

  1. I had a good gym session this morning
  2. Dp got all horny with me in the middle of the night, I'll spare you the details but we didn't have sex (he does this in his sleep occasionally and has no recollection of it when he wakes up)
  3. Peggy is on route

cakes sorry to hear af may be on her way ... sadly we can't all get our bfps at the same time. So yes welcoming af is sometimes all you can do and view each month as another month that your getting stronger and closer to conceiving. We will all get there.

rose I was truly hoping you wouldn't need the hycosy but am pleased to hear you've got your appointment- I've heard it makes you more fertile for 3 cycles so it can't be bad.

amanda soz to hear your full of cold ... I've heard that some cold and flu meds aren't good for ttc ... can't remember where I read it or even if I read it but would suggest good old lemon and honey as an alternative or gargling salt water .... that seems to kill off the germs ... a good old tip from my late nana that one :))

bella hope your okay today chic ... still high on the bfp vibe 😘

Well I'm cd 12 today and another blank circle on the cb opk and faint line on the boots opk... I'm using both opks as I'm hoping to get a bit of warning before the lh surge so I can sow the sex seed with dp in good time ... hopefully dp will be up for some good loving at the weekend ....

@Cakes - fx for you and everyone else dueto test soon! :)

@Bella and @Phase have either of you made gp / mw apps yet? Keep us posted of your key dates etc!

  2. My cousin asked me to be godmother to her baby girl at the weekend eek!
  3. I did a shop yesterday and have some lovely tasty meals planned out which I am excited for especially as my nausea and sickness have subsided (we've got v lazy with dinners recently)

I don't have any tests in. Wasted my last cheapie on Monday. So waiting it. Don't think I'll even pass a shop today!

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 06:49

ohh those are fab @CakesALot i can imagine that shower was amazing!

are you for testing or just waiting it out? #goodluck #fingerscrossed #SWforlife

CakesALot · 19/04/2017 06:46

Amazing on the 4.5lb loss too! I ❤️ SW.

CakesALot · 19/04/2017 06:45

(Af us also due today so I'm on obsessive knicker watch but I'll overlook that for now!!)

CakesALot · 19/04/2017 06:44

Great game @BellaMoon!

  1. DD is still asleep meaning I've just showered and got dressed in total peace
  2. DH is back at work today so I can stop feeling jealous about him getting an extra day off
  3. I have no meetings booked in at work today so can actually get something done!

Very easy to find the small things if you actually think about it!

BellaMoon · 19/04/2017 06:17

morning sexy ladies (said Fat Bastard voice from Austin Powers)

despite waking up in a panic from a crazy ass dream about breast feeding (too crazy to actually tell you the content as you'd have me locked up) i am feeling pretty happy. here's 3 reasons why:-

1- i got the best snuggles off wee bella this morning without a single nibble or scratch (progress)
2- i was late home last night and walked in just as DH was serving dinner (belter)
3- iv been fab on my slimming world healthy eating plan and have lost 4.5lbs (no sushi & champs clearly helped)

all trivial but sometimes is the small things we should take more notice of isn't ☺️

soooo, anyone else wanna share 3 things that are making them happy right about now?

AmandaP86x · 18/04/2017 22:27

Thanks @Bella the gunk I'm bringing up is giving
Me the dry boke!!!!

However the left sided pain now has me googling all kinds of shit ahhaha

BellaMoon · 18/04/2017 22:23

@AmandaP86x i'm just getting back to normal from the lurgy. it was hellish, could hardly breath then when i did manage a good inhail, i coughed my lungs up! pure dead rotten so it was #manflutimesamillion #getwellsoon

my colleagues were all talking about that show today. will need to tune in. i'm addicted to The Good Wife and Designated Survivor just now #netflixjunkie

AmandaP86x · 18/04/2017 21:35

Evening girls. I am loaded with cold/flu. Woke up today in tears at the pain all over my body it was awful 😱 Annoying cough at sore bones literally just made it into a bath after some toast and Nutella. Due back to work tomorrow night so praying I'm better tomorrow.

Love the PMA on this thread i defo think the BFP recently is defo helping we will all get there eventually. I really do believe what's meant to be will be ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm CD 8 and for the past few hours iv had such sore left sided pain 🙁 Could I be ovulating this early? I have kinda watery CM but I dunno if it's to do with all the decongestant stuff 😰 Help

I am also absolutely hooked on 13 reasons why it's on Netflix a good distraction from TTC chat (well for me anyway could spend hours on forums etc)

Xx

CakesALot · 18/04/2017 20:32

Great news @Roseandbee! Hope it goes well and you et the bonus boost!

Feeling grumpy and crampy this evening. Trying to hold on to the positivity I was feeling yesterday but afraid af is on her merry way. I'll take your approach @BellaMoon and give her a warm welcome!
