TTC Thread 14 ... Santa knows what we want for Christmas

Hi all, I haven't been on much as I'm going through an enormously low patch (could be a bit of depression, you never know). My temps have started going up and down so I'm of the opinion that temping is not for me. Have decided to get into the IVF clinic as soon as poss after the New Year.

Hi all, and a special welcome to the thread for Joshy, Magkel and Marinda ++++++++++

Huge congratulations to Bella on the BFP !

Oh Moschops, poor dp , what a lovely man, hope the dinner thing goes ok tonight x

I'm another one of us that needs a kick up the backside on an excercise front, would dearly like to lose about a stone - put on since married, too much good cooking and side effect from pill. Was really good a few months back about going to the gym but since mc haven't really bothered. Why don't we all keep a check on eachother and see if we can't be one of the fittest ttc threads ever, with of course the added bonus that it might just help the whole process ?!

Poor Moschops - sorry to hear about DH getting upset and making you cry. It must be reasuring though to know that he is going through this time with you. Small consolation I know but he sounds one in a million!

Day 23 here and really want to test although don't think there is any chance this month as I feel totally normal. Trying to be controlled but am completely WEAK and am bound to rush out and buy a test later on. Love to all especially BELLA!

congats Bella...hope some more of us can join you on the due in agust thread.

Moschops- I fell pg last time after doing an intense training month for a local charity run...so I think it can help!

Morning girls....

Congrats Bella

well i had a text chat with dp this morning and he made me cry. we are going for dinner with friends tonight and one of the couples are expecting in Jan. dp told me he's been dreading it because he's insanely jealous of them! i thought it was just us women who got emotional about all this. he said it hurts him because he REALLY wants it to be us.........i couldn't help but cry.....didn't realise it was affecting him so much.

while we're talking about exercise has anyone else found it has helped? i'm desperate to get my cycles regulated and wondered if getting on my exercise bike every day might help. i should use it anyway but need motivation

well off i go to do some housework.......

Congratulations bella That's great news!

Congratulations Bella now i will be starting walking again need to do it anyway as i am putting on weight and iam not even pg.

Fantastic news Bella - take good care of yourself . The rest of us are all, of course a teensy weensy bit envious!!!

Hi
Pleased to join this thread as TCC for 6 months now and am older woman (38). Conceived DS1 easily but am becoming heart-broken with not conceiveing and am worried about time running out ? Anyone out there who has had some fertility treatment and can give me some advice ? Heard there is a "pill" you can take that increases your chances.

bella - congratulations :O :O hope you have a nice 9 months, u lucky thing!

hiya joshy and Magkel hope ur stay isn't long (in the nicest possible way)!

hope every one else has a good day, after all it's friday which means the next two days for u guys of non stop bd! (u lucky thigns u!) he he

Thanks so much. I know it is early days so trying not to scream from the roof tops!
I shall keep logging on to hear all your progress - this is indeed a lucky thread!

Babydust to you all !!
Succumbed to a test this morning and YE HA ...a BFP!!
I was so convinced I had all AF signs that it is a real shock !

The main thing I did differently this month was to excercise. I had read on one of your threads that it was good to kick start the body therefore I started biking. Another thing I did was to go on this site which I am sure has brought me good luck so I am passing it on to you all !!

I hope it is you turn next and shall be sending all good thoughts to you all !

Jeddah and Hester my friend just told me today that her neighbour just had a baby at 45 see people are doing it later it does happen.

Hi joshy - I'm pregnant with ds2 age 37 - took 3 months same as with ds1 - what worked for me was monitoring my cervical mucus and going at it like the proverbial for a few days when it changed. Have you had a go at this method? Good luck - it can be done!

Magkel - thanks for your support. How long did it actually take to conceive son 2 ? Did you use an ovulator predictor ?

Hi just joined tonight. Do not give up. We had our first son at the age of 35. The next 3 years saw 3 miscarraiges. It then took over 2 years to concieve son 2 and at the grand age of 44 I delivered our 3rd son who was a little pleasant suprise. I felt more healthy being pregnant at 44 than I did at 40. All you 30 something year olds may have more time than you think.

joined this link on advive of munzeib (probably spelt wrong1) - would like any advice on thos 38+ (Hope i'm not only one!) on getting pregnant at 38. Done the ovulator tests etc.. Would like to know what clomid is and if its helpful etc... Any advice would be useful. Had first child at 35 - conceived almost immediately. Keep worrying about fertility etc...

munnzieb!......like the joke!

Tania CAT me when you have your ds pickies!

Love to see it all!

Girls....so glad to be around you all
ernest.....can just see those 2 lines..........WE WILL DO IT!!!!!!!

i've found a pregnancy joke for us all to have a giggle to it goes...

Q.My brother tells me that since my husband has a big nose, and genes for big noses are dominant, my baby will have a big nose as well. Is this true?

A. The odds are greater that your brother will have a fat lip.
