Not bad lissie. Feeling very bloated so I don't know if it's PMS or just bloating. I do get bloated before my period. I have been looking up stuff on the internet and I've just seen something about vaginal bacteriosis so I'm now wondering if I might have that. I think I will ask the doctor to take a swab. Someone else on a ttc had that but I can't remember who it was. How are you?

lissielou · 11/05/2007 20:48

how are you doing plummy?

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 20:46

I mean angus (ooh is it Scottish - if so Mrs McJnr might have heard of it).

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 20:45

lissielou · 11/05/2007 19:40

Jacqei · 11/05/2007 19:31

We tried for a baby for 2 years with no success then a friend recommended we take a herb angus linctus and despite my doctor telling me my bloods had showed no ovulation again for that month i had a positive pregnancy test!! I now have a baby boy who was born 11 weeks early and he's perfect.

tigerschick · 11/05/2007 19:13

Not optimistic but not obsessing either - so better of 2 evils really.

scorpio1 · 11/05/2007 18:44

tigerschick · 11/05/2007 18:36

Oh poor you Scorpio. Is your dp still going away? Hope you are feeling well enough to enjoy your weekend.

My lower back is killing me today - was in my hips earlier but now moved to the middle of the small of my back Ah well. Maybe some bd-ing later will take my mind off it

Hope everyone has a great weekend - anyone else "Mile for Maude-ing"?

Hi all,

Hope you're all ok!

Congrats Mrsmcjnr

Oh dear, did I scare everyone away ? On to brighter matters what's everyone's cd - we need an update.

plummymummy · 11/05/2007 16:42

Thanks for all your kind words ladies. I am still hopeful but agree that I have misinterpreted the tests. I have booked an appt with a female GP next thurs so that if I'm not pg I can discuss my concern that it's taking so long and try and make a thing of my age to be more manipulative in my quest to get some tests done. I also wanted to discuss my smear result as though it was normal I still have to repeat in 6 mths and this happens nearly everytime I have a smear but noone has ever explained why (and frankly, after my last experience of a smear, 6 mths is way too soon!)Also - sorry if too gross but my cm has taken on a dark yellow (almost slightly green like snot) tinge as opposed to creamy colour. No pain or anything and can't be an STD as no one playing away

Lexie100 · 11/05/2007 16:31

Those from TTC April Hi and those of you May TTC sorry i haven't been around much this month. Just needed not to think about TTC for a while. Given this month a really good chance and now on TWW.

Glad all are well.

Just had e mail from access diagnostic and you can get 5% off their products with this code

"Spend over £5 on goods and use this coupon code SP5%". I use their OV sticks and early pg tests. Hope this is useful for some of you.

tigerschick · 11/05/2007 16:09

hi MrsMJ you OK?

MrsMcJnr · 11/05/2007 16:08

Thanks Karma

Meto thanks. So sorry about AF any chance of following DH on his trip? (then read he?s on exercise ? now imagining you in camouflage sneaking into his tent at the dead of night ) Lots of twins in my family, am hoping to have the next set!

Flosspot sending you all positive vibes!

PinkElephant ? absolutely! Terrified! Hope you are doing ok?

PlummyMummy ? can understand your scepticism but false positives are rare keep testing and keep us posted! Shouldn?t think there would be more than 2 possible lines on the test, maybe the picture is not accurate.

The internet cheapies I had which were BFN 9dpo & 11dpo are now showing a little faint positive, maybe they are not so crap after all!

Soph73 ? probably just horror stories that I have heard!

Hello Tigerschick

Wheely hugs x

Thank you Ambi

Cheechy ? were there any efforts last weekend before he went away? Anything over last weekend still has a chance!

sweetkitty · 11/05/2007 16:00

afternoon all had quite a hectic day here 5 under 4 most of the day = chaos and mess sometimes it's a pity those adorable newborns have to turn into toddlers!

plummymummy - will keep everything crossed for you, my experience of cheapie ebay tests were as follows, thought I was PG so ordered some which arrived Thurs, AF was due Friday so tested, nothing. Tested Saturday nothing, tested Monday a very very very faint line but still no AF and I felt something was amiss went out and bought a Clearblue digital and you guessed it pregnant! So you never know, is it Tuesday you AF is due, treat yourself to a posh test if AF hasn't arrived by then better to put yourself out of your misery so to speak.

wheely - so sorry to hear AF turned up

meto - lol @don't push now only a man could say that, that's sad about your DH being away at the crucial time as well

MrsMcJnr - whereabouts in Scotland are you and I'm very at you moving to somewhere warm it's freezing here today

soph - hiya cycle buddy CD4 already for us, do you know when you ovulate I have a pretty good idea it's after about CD16-17 so a wee while to go yet. I'm so sad have already worked out AF will be due Weds 6th June

cheechymunchy · 11/05/2007 15:15

My DH has moved to Munich during the week - thought ov time would be this weekend when he's back. Really frickin' annoyed to get a +ve OPK on Wednesday...too early! He's on his way back from the airport right now - I wonder if we can sneak in a quick BD when I get home before we miss this month's chance? That is, assuming I can distract DS with CBeebies for a few minutes while mum and dad nip upstairs? ...joking, I'll wait until the wee one has gone to bed.

plummy - sounds like a digital is needed which is what i'm now promising in future - no testing other than CB digital on the day of AF being due cos apparently (according to peeonastick.com) there's always a line (other than the control) which basically shows up as any fluids pass by it (it's actually true of the really cheapy one from ebay (I was sad and tried it with water jsut to prove a point! lol.) was hte only way I could explain the line I saw - it was there but underneath the top bit iycwim. good luck thou hope you have a pos on tues.
