G'day girls hope everyone is feeling positive today. looks like there will be plenty of you testing soon Good luck.
Just found something on another chat room hope this works

here goes.....

MommyD · 15/10/2004 12:10

spykid - that's why I didn't think I could be pg this month. We stopped bd 2-3 days before ov (cos dh went away) I will be totally gobsmacked if I am pg...... Sorry about af
Will be hard pushed not to sneak an early response test in on Sunday - dh goes away again next week and would like to test together.....

spykid · 15/10/2004 12:01

Just checking in...keeping fingers crossed for all due to test!! Some really promising symptoms!
TBear, paralell universe i think!! I too caught first time with ds's, and thought my luck would continue. I think that it might be the fact that we also gave the girl swimmers a chance and stopped bd pre ov. Hope you have better luck than me(Auntie Flo settled in for a long visit).

On a positive note ds1 is 6 tomorrow, and i am having a 'full on' Harry Potter party at home .must be mad, bud i can't wait...just putting finishing touches to my costume, he he!

This weekend is going to feel soooooo long for some people

Sounds like next week may see the end of this thread in a big way - fingers crossed for all you 'waiters'.

Could start marketing mn as a dieting aid - simply subscribe to broadband, keep computer upstairs, post on mn, keep running up and down stairs to check for news........

..........but only as part of a calorie controlled diet!

Twiga · 15/10/2004 11:45

Yep, think your theory is spot on - CD days seem to be mentioned more the higher the number. Doing the same re: broadband - should be doing the dishes, getting lunch together etc but keeping nipping up just to see x Am figuring that even if not pg this month, have got my neices visit to look fwd to - shes just 17months old and we'll be looking after her for a week from next weekend - really excited, lots of trips to the park and stuff organised!

MommyD · 15/10/2004 11:38

I feel the same - I have a Broadband session open on my PC at home and just keep walking past every so often and checking for good news from you all.
I am sure we all post more after ov too!!!!

Twiga · 15/10/2004 11:32

MummyD, I know and I keep thinking I should take a couple of days off posting on here but just can't stay away - too excited about possible forth coming BFPs. Your symptoms sound good though x

MommyD · 15/10/2004 11:28

...it's hard not to think about it Twiga. When you decide you want one that's it! I am only on the first month of trying and look like I am completely obsessed already! I'm not though - I just feel pg! They're not the same are they?

Twiga · 15/10/2004 11:27

Bagpuss and Tessiebear, must be something in the water - can you bottle and send some out please?

Twiga · 15/10/2004 11:25

Morning all, lots of us testing this coming week then. CD25 here, earliest will test - tuesday 19th, but may well try and hang on util at least Saturday 23rd. No major symptoms either way here, which I think for me is good as it means cycle may be back to normal (here's hoping) or I may well be pg - was first pg when mc and didn't really pay much attention to symptoms until after got a positive test - just remember feeling like af was constantly around the corner and was suprised by test at time. So hoping it's this month, all our friends are pg or have just had first so feeling like getting left behind. Keep feeling really nervous when thinking about getting to end of cycle and the whole am I/aren't I thing..........must stop thinking about it!

MommyD · 15/10/2004 11:20

...so you and Tessiebear are aiming for a hat-trick!!! Good Luck and roll on next week

Bagpuss30 · 15/10/2004 11:18

Yup

MommyD · 15/10/2004 11:15

eh bagpuss - are you saying you fell pg first month of trying with BOTH your other kids?

Bagpuss30 · 15/10/2004 11:12

Morning all

TB I am also testing a week today so this time next week there will be sychronised weeing on sticks lol. I am getting a bit fed up already with this waiting though. I keep imagining symptoms too. Made myself a cup of tea this morning and couldn't stand the taste also last night I had a diet coke which tasted funny too. Boobs are sore but then that's nothing new at this time of the month anyway so I'm totally confused, although pretty sure it won't happen first time like the other two.

MommyD · 15/10/2004 11:08

Wow TB - what a record! Are you going to make it hat-trick!!?
I came off the mini-pill in Nov00, started trying in Jan01. Fell pg month one, but had a m/c at 4 weeks and 4 days. (If I hadn't tested, I wouldn't have known) Started trying again in April01 and fell pg 3 months later. As said ds2 was conceived when ds1 was 7 month and I said to my dh that there was no way we would fall pg as it was the wrong time of the month, still b/f, had c-section and so on. He didn't believe me, but we took that one 'risk' anyway. OOOpps Found out I was pg on Christmas Eve - he just grinned and said 'Happy Christmas. I told you so!' I was !

Tessiebear · 15/10/2004 10:59

MommyD - first month off the combined pill we conceived DS1. DH and i only BDed once that month due to work commitments. After DS1 was born i didnt go back on the pill we just used condoms ... i charted my OV for a few months whilst still using condoms then the month we started trying i worked out when i oved and we Bded once that month and was PG!!!!!

MINNIE1 · 15/10/2004 10:56

hester,
Thank you, i am now going to do some work.. (not)Think i will go for choc cake at lunch, just to cheer me up.. (any excuse)

MommyD ,
O finger's crossed you are...

MommyD · 15/10/2004 10:56

posts crossed. I fell pg with ds2 after just one 'risk'.

MommyD · 15/10/2004 10:54

TB - did you fall pg quickly with the other two?

Tessiebear · 15/10/2004 10:52

I really think you could still be in with a chance mommyd. We actually TRIED to BD up to four days before OV and then not on OV because we wanted to give the girl swimmers a chance! This was when i was sure i oved on about CD14 so we stopped on CD10...... then i sat back thinking all the work was done for the month and on CD22 i got the Eggwhite CM!! BDed on CD23 ... dont know exactly when i Oved .. am pressuming sometime around then!?! So the fact that i BD only once around OV doesnt put me in with a great chance this month ... but thats all it took with DS 1 & 2!!!!!

Tessiebear · 15/10/2004 10:47

I know what you mean MommyD - part of me just "feels" like i could be and my Boobs do feel a bit weird - sometimes tingly and sometimes almost burning. I asked DH this morning if they looked any bigger because i am sure they feel it - he said "no exactly the same size" ... sure its all in my head - this time next week i will have tested - horray ..

MommyD · 15/10/2004 10:46

cd23. AF due next weds. O'd on day 13, or possibly 14 (tell-tall ov pains on LHS this time)
Only bd cd10&11 as dh went away on cd12 for a week. First month of trying. Thought there was no way I would get pg this month. May still not be...
I said I was trying not to think about it - but here I am again, talking about it!!!

hester · 15/10/2004 10:44

Aw Minnie, here have some happy vibes ~~~!!*!!~~~

Failing that, I'll get you some white chocolate Maltesers at lunchtime.

Tessiebear · 15/10/2004 10:43
