sorry...is it ok to call you kitty?....sent the post without thinking

Waiting2Exhale · 28/08/2007 21:06

that would be sooooo cool kitty....lol

sweetkitty · 28/08/2007 21:02

I can't even be on the stats yet as I need to have an AF before I can start a cycle proper although since I am completely mad with this ttc business already that I was thinking well mc was 2 weeks ago so in 3 weeks time I will buy some CBD's argh I'm starting already. I bet you it takes ages this time. Theres no way I'll fall quick again it's sods law.

Sorry to those just joining us with AF's and those testing BFN wouldn't it be a first if everyone on the thread got a BFP in September and we were all on the antenatal thread together

Waiting2Exhale · 28/08/2007 20:56

Hi all, thought I'd join in as AF came to visit yesterday.boo hoo.....

CD2 of cycle 3 and already concerned its taking too long. I know some of you have been trying for a while also, but am really not getting any younger and would love my DS to have a companion while he is still young enough to consider the new arrival a companion.

Oh well, bring on ovulation...and a week of love making....hehehehe.... much better than BD.

I saw the dr and he was very nice. All my tests came back normal, no infection, the baby was normal everything was as it should have been for gestation so it was mealses that caused the mc. He told me to wait three months to try again and he is arranging an ultrasound of my cervix around the same time. It took a few months to conceive last time so we are not going to use any contraception and see what happens, I'm sure I will turn in to a ttc maniac within a few days!

Hello girls

Well I cracked this morning and did a test more because DH kept teasing me had I pee'd on my stick yet
Anyway as expected BFN although have the jelly brain, cramps and feel as though about the throw any second, I dont have the boobs, with pervious I turned into Dolly Parton over night I also know that these are symptoms of ridding all the pill from your system so not too worried ask me in December and I will have a big face.

To answer the ? are any of us still doing it for fun, then yes for sure, though I do still remind DH to make the most of it as when I do get a BFP I will go through weeks of going to bed at the same time as the kids and chucking up in the morning so there will be no chance of him getting near me

TheMuppetMuggle · 28/08/2007 15:18

TTM - HI how are you?? i'm good apart from i think i have chest infection
And yes Dec does sound interesting although not keen on carrying twins, i was the size of a house with Darcie so carrying 2 will be a nightmare!!

Goingfor3: Best wishes at the Drs today. Keep us posted.

All this BDing banter. Is anyone doing it for fun?? Forget the dates, the cycle, the OV...Remember one day you'll want to look back on this. Is a sore twang and legs in the air the memory you want? lol

Glad to see AF hasn't come for anyone at the end of our list. Looking forward to hearing BFP all around soon.

digitalgirl · 28/08/2007 13:26

Hi MM - yep, am cd31 today. My last cycle was 36 days, but I think I'm usually about 30 or 31. Got BFNs on Friday and Sunday, but am hoping that it was just too early. Until AF turns up (which could be as late as Monday) I'm staying optimistic.
Good luck this month!

Bucky2007 · 28/08/2007 13:14

Hi Pixie

I am trying to recruit petitioners over here .

moodymoo · 28/08/2007 13:11

Digitalgirl - my dh didn't have to read my mind last month - he just knew that I expected him to perform everynight without fail - was leaving nothing to chance - and on the 2 occasions he said no - he knew he was in for trouble. Just can't face that again - I am now the nice normal person that he married a year ago . In fact I turned him down at stupid o'clock this morning [shcok].Won't be feeling so smug about that at end of month with a BFN am sure but right now it feels very good.When ar eyou going to test? If I am reading the charts right you are CD31 - are you expecting a long cycle?

digitalgirl · 28/08/2007 13:02

oops meant to say moodymoo and bellie re: opk's

abroller do you think the little twinge you've got is an ovulation cramp? any chance you'll be able to go for it tonight?

digitalgirl · 28/08/2007 12:59

Hi ladies [waves to pixie] !!!

Moodymoo & Abroller - let me know how the opk's go, I'm thinking of using them next cycle for the same reason. Take the pressure off DH from having to read my mind and know that I want some BD'ing

Thanks for the update GF3, good luck at the doc's...

Still no AF for me , am on knicker watch from now till Monday. Am also waiting for my cheapo ebay hpt's to turn up and if it looks likely then I've bought a twinpack of Clearblue digital to confirm.

moodymoo · 28/08/2007 11:23

Hi Bellie - Yes I am still around but have been so busy I haven't had chance or the energy to get on here. DH was starting to complain that I was on here too much as well. I bought my clearblue monitor sticks in boots - cost £20 for 20 sticks - will probably get them off ebay though in future as they are definatly cheaper. How is it going for you? am now CD10 and still on low -got a feeling won't ov for a few more days. Definatly think it has taken all the stress out of ttc though and put fun back into sex for us both. Looking forward to it showing something other than low though - slight worry about what if it never shows peak or high, but am not going to go down that road of thought just yet!
Hi to everyone else - I seem to have lost track of whos who - for all those who have bfp's and for those who haven't.

pixie04 · 28/08/2007 11:09

Hello, Can I join you ladies? I've met some of you on the 2week wait thread.

I'm CD64 so far only BFN but saw doc this morning and she thinks coz I'm irregular that I may have tested too early and not to test now for a week or two. That will take me into September so fingers crossed for that BFP.

AbRoller · 28/08/2007 10:30

Hi ladies, I'm only just getting back here after a few crazy days! Thanks for adding me to the roll call

CD 15 today and no BDing last night (assuming that because my cycle is regular I should have OV'd yesterday) so a bit upset today. Think I might have pushed DP a bit and now he feels crap because, well we couldn't last night (so sorry if TMI) I don't blame him because I know I have turned into a crazy TTCer of late! I guess unless the previous BDing worked I have missed the boat (sad)

I can't remember ever being this consumed by only one thing before in my life!

On the hopeful side I have been observing some differences in my body that I don't remember feeling every month (but maybe only noticing now because I'm focusing?)Have a strange twinge in my lower left side this morning for instance and don't know what that's about? Well, I'll just have to wait and see.

Just to acknowledge that I have read the thread though I couldn't possibly message all of you individually - sorry to hear that some of you have had very sad news. Best wishes and good luck to all of you here.

Bellie · 28/08/2007 08:46

no idea how it posted twice - sorry

Bellie · 28/08/2007 08:45

thanks goingfor3 - I was just about to do it when I saw your post!!
Good luck at the gynae today - I am sure that they won't say don't ttc - my experience has been that they say try when you are ready.
Hopefully you will get a smiley face soon - it is a great feeling when you do - at least you know that everything is happening as it should (iyswim)

I am now using the fertility monitor as I am on cycle 9 and seeing if that helps - v expensive tho!

Morning ladies, I updated the roll call out of boredom!
I'm going to see the gynae dr today for my mc follow up. Hopefully he won't tell me not to ttc as dp will probably do what he says.
I've started taking my temps though I'm not really sure what I'm looking for, this early im the cycle nothing I suppose, I will also use clearblue digital opks hopefully I will get a smiley face this month!
Good luck to all of those waiting to test.

Twilight you should be on the other 'symptoms' thread we have already have a petition to campaign against all the 'faulty' pregnancy tests that are giving us BFNs when quite obviously all our symptoms are quite clearly telling us we are BFPs!!

I however, had to withdraw my complaint when the AF (now commonly known as TEW The Evil Witch) turned up ....

I am sitting here with the TV on in the background and that 'its all gone, its all gone' toilet roll product kid is almost a contraceptive...uh sooo annoying...

TwilightSurfer · 27/08/2007 22:24

What a DAY!!! DH is away on business and I feel like I've lost my mind. DD fussed all afternoon...obviously misses HAD. (New acronym His/Her Amazing Dad)...(oooh might not be a good idea though since HAM would be ME!!!) LOL LOL I'm obviously tired.

Three days till test day. Somehow I wish tests were under lock. All the chatter about false positives and bogus test makes me wonder if tests aren't a conspiracy. Someone's getting rich off of our need to know early.

Till tomorrow...................or sooner if having another restless night.
