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

Great news Awen. Keep us posted!

Goingfor3 - Fantastic! Bet you're over the moon!

Scorpio - We're pretty good here ta. How's things at your end?

Awen - all I can say is that I think at that stage of development all you would expect to see would be the gestational sac so that's fine in 2 weeks you might see the fetal pole and HB things change so much in the early weeks. Keep us posted!

goingfor3!

cd12 here today and getting down to business very much dp says he isnt feeling as under pressure this month either, with is really good

Pinkslippers-im fine thankyou sweetie, hows you??maybe we can be pg buddies and ttc buddies too!

Everyone else ok? tiger?

Yay goingfor3 - i did my 4th test this morning just to be sure

had scan. Def gestational sac present but very early 4-5 weeks. Embryo was inconclusive.. she couldnt confirm she could see and said am very early days. Re-scan in 2 weeks. Anyone else had this?

Ohh and my left ovary deserves congratualtions

Flumpytiger ? I know exactly what you mean, the internet is the biggest time drain ever and I spend so much of my time on here especially when I am meant to be working!

Goingfor3 ? you and your beanie are going to be fine, I feel it try not to even think about the worst case scenario, just enjoy the sheer excitement of it all!!

Thanks for all your kind messages everyone. I did a digital test this morning and I am definatley pregnant. I feel relieved more than anything else. Even if I do have a miscarriage I at least know that I can conceive.

Good luck to you all!

Hello!! (Flump waves like a deranged mad woman at everyone)

Sound's like we're all in full swing with lots of plans a-foot and lots of bd'ing going on..

I'm on CD 12 today and we started getting in plenty of practice on CD 8 onwards! I'm trying not to wear DH out though, so I'm sticking to my every other day rule

Please please please let it be a lucky month for us all....

Brilliant news goingfor3 and awen, I'm so but so happy for you both!

Urgh I wish I could stop thinking of babies and getting pregnant for just 5 minutes. I'm on MN when I should be working and I find myself drifting off into daydream mode when I'm meant to be concentrating. It's so bad I keep thinking about getting pregnant this month & at this rate it ain't going to happen, unless I stop putting so much pressure on myself!
I was even wondering if the boys were still scooting around inside me this morning from Sunday's attempt - I'm a crazy obessed woman!

Help!

rant over for now...

Sorry!

Fingers crossed for BFP's for us all!
xx

Fantastic news goingfor3 and awen!

Congratulations Awen, and any other May BFP's, I'm so pleased and at the same time! When will it be me??!!
CD4 for me, AF on her way out, so time to start BDing asap! Don't want to wear DH out too early though.... I seemed to ov late last month, so will be starting later on the OPK's.
Had a look at that 2ww website, i think i had most of the obsessions on there, especially the one where after all the BDing, not doing much exercise in case the "baby" un implants itself!! I was wondering about that, running around the gym i was trying to land lighter! I have found that i now do not want to exercise at all except for walking, and have put on at least 4 pounds! For no reason at all! Anyway, will catch up with you all in a few days, find I become too obsessed if I come on here every day!

Lets hear of some more BFP's soon!

Just a quick message to say a big congrats to goingfor3 - fantastic news!! Take care of yourself, hope all goes well.

CD 18 af due from 9/05 to 13/05 i think.

Congratulations on bfp girls!! Hopefully afew more should come this month.

Thanks for all the kind words too.

Scorpio how are things going with you??

I doubting i will be this month, i think i've missed the boat so to speak. My kids are saying that they'd really like a baby brother or sister. lol.

Anyway good luck all lol i cna't remember my cycle day. um....

lol. no actually DS is a feb baby (but I did pop over I think! lol) i'm normally found with the beanies but as some RL folks know me on here I've name changed so they won't spot me out as I don't like them knowing my sex life lol.

so far i've not ben taking any tabelts or anything - I guess I should get some actually.

(ooh and the beanies thread are the girls I was TTC with with DS fabby bunch of girls, our thread alwasy had a beanie in some description in the title - and it annoyed people every time lol.)

Now I am really intrigued meto, now it can't be the Due in Aug 04 thread cos that was a long while ago so it must be the Due in Jan 06 thread now I know a few girls from there are already pregnant so I'm wondering who you are?

Also don't be telling any of this lot what a horrible miserable cow I was when DD2 was overdue last time they won't allow me on the antenatal thread

I'm on the folic acid already but apart from that I really not organised part of me just wants to see what happens, I have a Persona but have never used it. Both DDs have been the one BD for the month (long story) so I know one was conceived around CD11 and one CD19 so I don't know whats going on.

I think we've been on a anti natal thread b4 - but i'm under disguise! lol.

hiya floss - what dog have you got? (i've got 2 my self - don't envy you thou with pups.)

awen - good luck for tomorrow chick, don't forget to stop in and let us know how you go.

bobby - sorry to hear about yourt FIL. agree with mrsmj - Drinking/fottie comes first for my DH (hence no bd'ing sat night )

mrsmcj - we managed a measly one bit gutted not v hopeful but we shall see. I have a feeling this month I might well have a 32 day cycle - when I ov'ed on days 12/13 my lp was alwasy 14 days regardless so hoping to have the same again with a late OV.

bambino - erm yes well DH has said i'm not to get obsessed and plan our sex life around my little white persona moniter! lol. so it's bd'ing all month round for us- just more at OV time I think.

anyhow hope everyone's doing OK, currently 2DPO now I think (OV 18/19 now 20) so roll on 9th may when i'll know one way or the other - hopefully!

outlaws down from weds so might not be about as much. (MIL is asking about a no 2 again so no pressure there then! lol. (shame they weren't down this w/e after all - could ahve used 2 days alone with DH anyhow! lol)

wheeley - hiya chick, yep 2 ww for us chick - i'm thinking of starting knitting again - will give me something to do instead of peeing on a tenner! lol.

Hi sweetkitty and flosspot.Good luck to you both this month.

Flosspot, I'm interested in the fact that you are on Clomid for PCOS. I'm waiting to hear about a scan to see if that is my problem. Do you mind me asking how you were diagnosed and how long it took before you started treatment? I already have 1 dd of 13 months but she took over 3 years to conceive 'naturally' so we are seeking a little help with ttc#2.

Boobydazzler ? I?m impressed! And footie comes before TTC with my DH

Awen ? so exciting!! Let us know how you get on at the scan!

Hi Wheely

Welcome Flosspot ? sorry it is taking so long I really hope it happens for you soon. I am on cycle 10 of TTC (though got BFP on Cycle 8 but MC at 10 weeks) puppy must be gorgeous

Hello SweetKitty hope the PSD stays at bay this time or at least is better! Good luck for May!

hiya wow what a large thread sorry haven't had time to read it all but thought I would add myself to the list

AF due around 9th May so we are TTC after that.

Already have:
DD1 2.9y (conceived after 9 months of TTC)
DD2 1.3y (conceived very first unprotected BD after DD1 was born)

AFs are back to clockwork after finishing BFing DD2 at 13 months.

So here we are again number 3 seems very scary but I don't want to have 2 close together then 1 a few years later, planning to have them all close together, have a breakdown then recover. No seriously the DDs are the best but we still feel their is another little person missing from around the table. I suffer from SPD in pregnancy so will be the most miserbable pregnant women ever but it will be worth it (my mantra).

Best of luck to everyone ttc this month and hopefully we will all be graduating to the Due in Fed thread x

Hello everyone-

new to the site, so bear with me. Still trying to work out the acronyms.

TTC for 19 months, which feels like a lifetime, but am sure is much shorter than others. Have DH and recently acquired puppy, Nugget, who provides a reasonable amount of distraction when frustrated with cycles, consultants and temperature charts, but not so hot on advice and support.

Have PCOS and on Clomid (2nd cycle. CD 10 so going to be busy for the next few days.

Ah lovely awen - let us know how the scan goes tomorrow. Am v. pleased for you !

Well done too Goingfor3 ! Are we on a roll now (she says hopefully) ???

Meto - hello cycle buddy. Glad you OV in the end - a couple of days after me I think. Good luck !

Plummymummy - glad your ds is almost 3 (thats not late though is it - especially for boys), makes me feel better ! Funnily enough dd has shown a bit of interest over the weekend so who knows ?!

Hi pinkslipper - hope the 'trying not to obsess' works for you this month !

Glad your weekend was ok Scorpio.

yay goingfor3!! wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy

Thank you lovely ladies for your messages, I hope you all are lucky this month xxxx

I have dating scan tomorrow morning so wil know for sure if due Dec or Jan 11am... cant wait. Didnt sleep much last night, tossing and turning again. Am far too excited

Afternoon all

Just wanted to say thanks to those who posted messages of sympathy re my lovely FIL. We were lucky because DS got to spend the first 2 years of his little life with him and I realise that many people lose loved ones before they have their own DC.

CD 16 for me. DH was supposed to be having a night out watching his footie team on Friday and getting pxxxxd. He had the night out but had to abstain from the booze so he could drive back to do his duty with me! Hope it is worth it! at least his footie team won so all is not lost if we have another BFN this month!

Congrats to Awen and Going for 3, first of many BFP's on this thread to come hopefully.

My husband also says well at least we have one and I know it is true but doesn't stop the yearning. Good friends of ours are visiting at end of May who are about to embark on IVF to try for their first child. We know another couple who are due to have their first baby through IVF and yet another who have just had their first son by IVF. Unfortunately Mum had a third degree tear and had to go to theatre. Seems unfair that they had alot of trouble conceiving and now she has to cope with the consequences of the tear. So yes I do think myself very lucky really to have one lovely heathly DS and to have been able to enjoy him from the very moment he was delivered .

Buy for now x

Hello ladies 4dpo today, not feeling very hopeful though, have to say.

AWEN - FABULOUS well done you!!! Delighted for you & Mr Awen. Wishing you a very happy, healthy pregnancy!

Let Awen lead the pack ? come on ladies!!

Hello Goingfor3 that?s great news!!! I really hope the line gets much stronger over the next few days!

Meto Yipeee!! Hope you managed to fit a timely BD in. 10 days is fine. I think the average LP is actually 12 but it can vary from 9-16 days and still be fine.

PlummyMummy ? sounds fine then

Scorpio1 ? sorry about the headlice (scratching my head just thinking about it!)

Pinkslippers ? it?s good to voice it all! Fingers crossed for you.

Hello again Waitingforbambino sorry April wasn?t your month. Sounds like the opportunites for success in May are looking good Some cycles, we just can?t be bothered but others we seem to get a taste for it!

Hey Karma ? very sensible philosophy, I try to aim for 2-3 times/week apart from AF time when I?ve read it is best to let your body relax totally but I do try to convince DH to go for it more often when I think I am fertile!

Bbabymamma ? hope all is going well with you!

Hello Tigerschick Boss absent so he?s fine OVd Thurs so pressure was off this weekend. How are you? Sounds like the weekend was fun!
