Hi girls

Arrived on my hols yesterday - I am in the US.

About lunch time today af arrived - early, couldn't believe it, didn't even get a chance to test. Was all set to test tonight. BOO HOO.

I am feeling a bit sad. Will go and have a drink now!

Jeddah hope you had a great time.

Sorry have been at work all day and just got back in... seems like lots of BFP.... brilliant !!! I am sure plenty of celebrations in many houses!!

Can I ask a question .... I am on CD 57 or something (starting to loose count - sems like AF will never come back! I know I am not pg, did a test a few days ago).... but did an ovulation test tonight as I felt I had more cervical fluid (though not egg white)... the test was positive... should I BD tonight ? Are these tests failry reliable ? It was my first time trying these tests... thanks !

Geordie · 23/10/2004 20:13

Hi all

HUGE CONGRATS TO ALL THE BFP'S!!!!!!!! WOW WHAT A LUCKY THREAD!! HOPE 12 IS LUCKY FOR ME!! AND EVERYONE ELSE LEFT WAITING FOR BFP'S TOO!!

well cd 17 here and lots of ewcm and looking very fertile so bd bd bd bd!!!

Hula- how's things....cd 18 right?? have you had your temp rise yet?

Twiga- count proper bleeding as cd 1- spotting doesn't count as it can be old blood (esp if brown etc).

well off to watch the passion (mel gibsons film bout Jesus) ....not v romantic but dh and i both want to see it!!

Just caught up with all the chat.
Cobweb, fantastic news, so pleased it's worked out for you x
Tessiebear, CONGRATULATIONS !!!
Welcome to MunnzieB, don't forget to move over to ttc12 when Tania2 starts it off monday.
BeckiF [hugs]
Tania, think it's a great idea that you start us off for the next one - you're normally the first one to post due to time difference so will be good to have you take the lead here too!

Still not sure of my situation here, still spotting, slightly heavier but still brownish stuuf (sorry TMI) - am fairly sure that i'm probably not pg and don't know if I'll worry about testing now after all - how do I count my days, do I do it from when the spotting started or do I wait for proper af bleeding? Think I'm CD33.........just wish af would hurray up, so fed up that things still aren't working properly 3 months on . Still am collecting my 17 month old neice tomorrow so get to play "mum" for a week while ds and hubby are away x

golds · 23/10/2004 17:24

Well I don't know really, other than the fact that lately I have been so tired, I just want to sleep during the afternoon, I got heartburn the other day and I have felt a bit sicky. (Obviously my imagination) also we BD right on cue this month and I felt different.

Confusing, I will test in a couple of days if nothing returns.

MommyD · 23/10/2004 17:05

... i'll re-phrase that (I can't read).... why do YOU think you are pg?

MommyD · 23/10/2004 16:59

golds - a friend of mine had a shortish period when she was pg with both her children. It is possible that you had a bleed and are also pg. Why not do a test in a couple of days? That's what I would do. Other than that I am not sure. Why does your dh think you are pg?

golds · 23/10/2004 15:58

I think I am going mad - please advise someone.

As you know first month off pill, AF arrived Thursday evening on CD31 (normally 28-30) so a day later than usual.

AF arrived in her normal fashion, I went out yesterday and forgot to take any tampons with me (TMI I know) and by the time I got back felt the need to sort myself out, changed and carried on as normal, after this went to change again a few hours later and AF had completely stopped, lasting a total of 24 hours ?????? (not usual)

What could this be, is she going to arrive again, or is this 'normal' for first month off pill - I really can't remember whats happended to me before.

Its funny cause whilsts I was out yesterday, I turned to dh and said, if it wasn't for the fact that I'd come on I'm convinced I'm PG - I really feel it.

moschops · 23/10/2004 12:07

well i finally got AF today after an 85 day cycle!!!

i know normally on here AF is the enemy but i am glad to see her(just this once!)! and as this is the first time i've had sore boobs before af i'm hoping it's a sign that my hormones have finally kickstarted after being on the pill.

lets hope this next cycle is the lucky one for the rest of us!!

onamnbreakbut · 23/10/2004 11:39

Im rooting for you too Beckief and always have. Ill be so pleased for you when you fall. Chin up and good luck to you.

My spotting has now stopped, i just wish af would just start and then i can get on with just knowing im not pregnant.

Feel bad feeling bad as im so lucky to have three already when some of you are ttcing fot the first time. I really understand how you feel, wether its ttc 1 or ttc 4 its still bloody depressing each month. But alot harder for the ttc ones i know. Maybe ttc 12 is the month for you, especially you Beckief. Baby dust in its tenfold for you. *** (thats my baby dust by the way)

LipstickMum · 23/10/2004 11:16

Morning girls!

Tania, I also think you should be the one to start the new thread, good luck to you for next month xxx

BeckiF, I'm really sorry to hear you were on one of the very first ttc threads. It's very hard to know what to say, having not been trying for half as long as you. However, I do know what it's like to want a baby very badly and what I have felt over the last 3 months must be a mere snapshot compared to what you are going through. I'm thinking of you and big (((hugs)))

No time to chat now, have to have a big bacon sarnie

Tania2 · 23/10/2004 11:12

Oh BeckiF dont do that to yourself i know its hard you have been ttc for so long and i know how it can really get you down. How long has it been now. I have been ttc for nearly 11 months but ds was years so i can kinda understand how you feel and with everyone around you graduating it gets even harder. it will be our turn soon. I just keep reminding myself that iam making some really good friends on here that are very suportive and understanding and i really would be feeling alot worse if i didnt have you guys. hang in there Becki it will happen. My natrapath told me "that little soul up there is looking down waiting for that perfect moment to make us complete"
I think i started on thread 5 as a lurker and came out on 6.

Yes Tania - you must definately start the new thread!!!

Tania2 · 23/10/2004 10:08

Thanks girls you guys let me know when to start it because of the time difference i dont want to leave anyone behind testing, cause my monday morning starts when you are all asleep on sunday night. Hope that will bring us all luck. Who is left to test what is the stats so far?

MommyD · 23/10/2004 10:04

I second Tania to start the LUCKY NUMBER 12 Thread!! A thread started on the other side of the world might make a change. MIGHT be EVEN luckier!
Agree??

onamnbreakbut · 23/10/2004 10:02

Go on Tania, i started this one. Wait till mon though as some are testing tomorrow. Good Luck

Tania2 · 23/10/2004 09:32
