TTC MAY-be, maybe not.... lets try again with the May thread

Thanks sweetkitty and plummy. I think I´ll test after work (as can´t get to a chemist until then). Sweetkitty, I also work full-time but the added adavantage is that me, DH and DS are all at the same place (we work in the school that DS goes to). Fortunately I also had 3 years maternity leave, which you´re entitled to here, unpaid of course and then DS started school and I went back to work part time initially and then full time.

I know today is just going to drag on and on because I desperately want to test now - I´m giving myself butterflies just thinking about it - aaarggghhh!

Also, I can´t tell anyone here because DH and I agreed that we wouldn´t let anyone know that we are even trying. I think I might flip out before the day ends!! Watch out all students

Oh bugger - I meant impatient. Must have been a freudian slip - got work on the brain. Off sick today with a viral infection.

Take a day off mine as I had already added Soph - like sweetkitty I am inpatient so would test also. Sweetkitty if it's any consolation I work full-time and on a daily basis I wish I could stay at home. I think it is difficult either way. Part-time work must surely be the best solution though the work has to be well-paid to justify the childcare costs.

morning ladies I'm still trying to keep up with everyone

soph - I would test just to put my mind at rest but that's me and I am the most impatient person in the world.

Not much happening here am a bit glum today think it might be AF working her evil ways or I just feel a bit mmm about my lack of career today I don't know why I chose to give it up and I'm planning on having another baby but sometimes I just feel SO bored. Sorry for the whinge it's raining on and off here so cannot even take the DDs to the park, am off to buy some paint in a bit that's the excitement of my day!

Morning all! MrsMcJnr how do you manage to keep track of everyone - amazing. Well it´s a bit of a strange day for me as AF seems to have disappeared and my boobs have turned rock solid - should I test or wait? Anyone have any advice? Kaleidoscope - I was commiserating with crisps and wine when I realised Also I have strange stomach ache, not like period pains though - weird. Of course that could be the crisps and wine I devoured last night

Scorpio - thanks for that info and hope the assignment´s going OK

my cd is right, thankyou

boobylicious - no advice really, maybe take some paracetemol?im sure it hurt this time because its the first one you have had for a while iykwim?at least you know where you are now!

stay positive all those who think af is coming-its not over yet!

im feeling quite if it happens it happens at the mo, which i am pleased about! no stressing for me, lol!

i am off to do a law assignment now, so smack me if you see me posting!!

Morning All - CD29 here, expecting AF either tomorrow or friday. Having been quite hopeful (again !) over the last few days as have been feeling constantly nauseous awoke this morning feeling distinctly pre-periody. So probably off to June before the week is out.

Sorry to everyone getting bfn or visits from the painted lady but enjoy the wine without any guilt Mrs McJ, hope thurs brings good news hon.

this thread does move fast phew! sorry I think I was misunderstood last month we were still using condoms so am not surprised AF is here, this will be our first month of trying. Both times I've got pregnant we BD'd CD11 and CD19 (both times the only time that month - long stories) so it just shows you gals to keep up with the BDing. Months where we BD'ed every 2 days and used OPKs nothing, these little beanies will keep us guessing for sure.

McDreamy - hi welcome to the thread, another one going for number 3 what do you have already? also are you Scottish by any chance?

Hi all! I know I come and go a bit (in fact, was last here on 18th April!) but I do still try and check in to see how others are going.
I am now on CD18, so have the fun of the 2ww stretching before me! Although I started a thread a little earlier about OPK's and, depending on what happens with them tomorrow and Thurs there is a possibility I haven't actually ov'd yet, so might not have started 2ww yet after all!!
Anyway, sorry to hear about those BFN's

MrsMcJnr - it's amazing how you give everyone a mention! I've added a day back onto my CD on the roll-call:

Hello ladies I tested yesterday, 11dpo and got a BFN so I like the fact that only 51% get a BFP then. I plan to try again on Thurs at which point I?ll be 14dpo and 74% get their BFP then. We?ll see only got past 12dpo once before and I was pg but who knows what happening in this post MC body of mine getting some sharp pains in either side now so I guess it could be the lining dissolving

Pobletsmum ? how horrible about those bites!! That?s really nasty. I really hope you are ok.

Meto ? might be a bit early hon, fingers crossed you get the answer you want later in the week hope it was a line set to get much darker! sorry about the BFN today

Plummymummy ? fingers crossed for you too!

Hey Wheely hang in there!! My spotting never materialized.

Scorpio ? hope all that hard work pays off

Lissie you plan sounds fun!

Boobylicious ? always a good plan to have a test run just to get rid of any dead wood have fun!!

Soph73 ? I?m sorry hon, it?s always such a disappointment! Sending you hugs and hopes for this new cycle

Anniemac ? know how that feels, been there! Hope you get your miracle

Kaliedoscope ? I?m sorry, at least she saved you some money though. I really hope that this cycle is your lucky one

Sweetkitty ? all the very best for this cycle!

Hello Tigerschick

Never say never Flumpy!

Welcome McDreamy best of luck to you.

Sorry about af soph73, sweetkitty & kaleidoscope, and for BFN meto. I had another BFN this morning, but still spotting very lightly (3rd day), which has never happened before. Completely confused by my body! Still half-hoping af arrives soon cos of antibiotics (as I said before). Have been feeling shivery & nauseous all day today - more due to the lymphngitis than possible pregnancy, I think. This is so weird!

Hi McDreamy & welcome. Good luck

Ok I think I now qualify to join this thread. Had my mirena coil removed today - and that's it - off we go for number 3 !!!

I know this is another silly question but please bear with me! If my cycle is about 33 days long when would the best time to start serious bding?

No sign of OV for me though, so I have tried to cover all bases. Although DH has been useless this weekend, so I'll streak round my garden naked if I am pg because the odd's are seriously stacked against me this month!

good luck to all of you nearing af, fingers crossed for BFP's and here's to lots of bd'ing and BFP's for all those at CD1..

xx
