Congratulations Colin's mom - what a lovely Christmas present

And thank you sooo much for all the babydust Twiga - keep it comin'!!

Thanks girls.

Ernest, that is exactly how my "period" happened this month. AF was due on Wed. before Christmas. Got really light spotting Thurs-Sat. Negative tests on Fri + Sat before Christmas. Then just gave up hope, and was really sad, because I felt so pregnant.

MuppetM-Congratulations to you.

Twiga- According to due date calculator on the internet, I'm due Aug 17th. I hope it comes then or before then, because Colin's birthday is Aug 18th. I want them both to have their own special day.

I was on one of the other threads with all of you and found out 2 days before Christmas that I am pregnant - still have to do daily tests to actually believe it is true and still keep thinking it's going to be taken away from me like my last one (mc)

Great to hear that so many others of you got what you wanted for Christmas.

I'm so pleased for all of you.

Christmas Happiness to you all and lets hope the New Year brings success to the rest of you.

congratulations cilinsmummy 7 twiga, nice to have a couple of gradates & fab Christmas pressie.
sorry you're having a rotten time, tania, hope you're feeling better soon.

sorry for all you squeemish ones, but my last af was so light. it wass only 2 very light days and 2 days of spotting. it was so light I wondered if it was poss was pg after all, but tested again. not surprised to get another bfn, but can't stop thinking about this af. Does this mean anything, does anyone know? Start of menpause or something? Sorry, don't mena to be a drama queen, but you of ten hear people complaining of heavy periods and reasons for this, but not of lighter ones & wondered if it meant anything? Starting persona tomorrow.

Good morning! Congratulations Colinsmommy! When are you due?

Thank you for all your good wishes! Also a huge thank you for putting up with my waffle for the last few months. I've really appreciated all the support I've been given, particularly when things have been difficult and sad due to my mc. Wishing you all the very best in this coming year and hope that it won't belong before each one of you graduates off this board +++++++++++++*++++++

{{{{{{{big hugs}}}}}}} Tania, do you have a date to start ivf yet? Don't worry about your dh's reaction, he sounds very normal to me "that's nice" seems to be a fairly standard response to most things for a guy. I think your dh is every bit as bothered as you and that it's just a gender thing, also he is probably trying to be supportive by being strong for both of you. Much love to you today x

Wow colinsmummy congratulations what a great suprise for you. Dont worry iam not upset when i read that anyone on here is pg really really happy for anyone on here to be pg cause i have traveled the journey of heartache with you.

Been at MIL all day today as dh's auntie and family were down from darwin. Auntie hasnt meet ds b4 and said (not knowing) better get number 2 on the way so ds has a sibling that he can be close to as he is 2 already. Well i start crying while dh and her joke about practising. Noone saw me cry except i think MIL may have and she quickly changed the subject. But other than that we had a really nice day.

Will be calling the ivf clinic on Wednesday to make our first appointment with the shrink. Have to get this all happening b4 i do my head in.

CONGRATS COlinsmummy! So happy for you.

Am on cd24 and have had a couple of BFNs this week... to early probably anyway but going mad.

Twiga-- Great news for you. What a great christmas present.

Thanks, Kate.

Tania, so sorry. Was crying too much to read your message. Feeling kind of selfish right now.

Wow Colinsmummy - i guess Santa has been busy - brilliant news xxx

Wow! Merry Christmas to you, Colin's Mom. (You're going to have to change your name in a few months. )

OMG OMG OMG. Just took a pregnancy test for no reason. Its a BFP!!!!!!!! No reason to take it, way off in cycle. I guess my bleeding before was implantation bleed or something.

Hi girls really sad today just had a call from a friend who is ttc she was nearly in tears when telling me she is pg all she could say was i would understand if you hate me. I would never hate someone for getting pg. I had to do the same to her when i fell pg with ds she had lost her baby at 25 weeks and was ttc for her now dd i cryed when i had to tell her so she knows how i feel. I stayed strong and said that i am always happy for people that fall pg and she would understand that i would be thinking to myself WHY NOT ME???? told dh and he just said thats nice why cant he feel the same as me. also i was told on xmas day that my BIL cousin whom already has a son from a one night stand and handballs him of to her sister all the time is now pg again from a one night stand. that makes me sooooo mad why does god bless a woman like that with children and all of us have so much trouble.

Evening everyone. Just popping in to say that we had a great Christ annd Boxing Day, hope everyone else has too?

(I finished breastfeeding full time at 9 ish months)

CONGRATS TO TWIGA!! What a fantastic christmas present!! Hope you stick around for a while to sprinkle your dust on us

cockenzie, might be butting in here a bit... not read all the messages, but I was told that breastfeeding can mess up things for months and months, even when you've finished producing milk - someone else said it but yes you can merrily go on and menstruate without ovulating - it took me pretty much one month of trying to get my first baby, we've been bding with no protection since he was born and pretty often at that! He's now 10 months old, I think I actually ovulated for the first time this month as I had completely forgotten what it felt like! Don't give up hope hun, it can take a while for your eggs to be released again hugs

been now ttc for 5 months.and am beginning to question if i am ov.going to make appt with doc and ask him to look into it

thanks girls for advice. that really makes me think.i have used the ov kit from clearblue and line showed up for horm LH and bedded but nothing happens.i think i am going to see doc and enquire.i am doing everything to get pg but mayb b/feeding suppresses ov (i read somewhere that it does suppress)especially at night.

any more testers?

TWIGA!!!!! so chuffed for you !!!!!

Cockenzie yes you can have af and not ov! sorry about af

Canadian.....sorry about af!

Hester....glad you are having a happy and healing time, i do think of you often!

cd16 for me today and not ov yet.........will be about cd19-20 think it was cd21 last cycle. I keep watching persona.

I am off to my elder sisters tomorrow for 2 day (lives near Wigan) so I hope I will not ov until I get back. I will be there on cd17 and cd18 so I should be ok as I usually get very sore boobs before ov and that hasn't even started yet!...so wish me luck.

Hope all of you are happy and well!

hello all - just had the most splendid lie in and feeling very full of life now. Also (rather bizarrely) more relaxed now that AF has arrived (this morning). I was beginning to think she never would and there was something horribly wrong so actually quite relieved to see her - though obviously disappointed at the same time.

DH has been an angel and is very committed to giving us the best possible opportunity this month (not that it isn't in his interests iykwim ) and I am feeling very positive about the whole thing. So roll on those October babies!!! My DS is an October baby and he is fab! Oh, and so am I! (an October baby that is!!)

We have snow here so off to take DS for his first walk in it!! Will no doubt be v. sad and take pictures of his footprints but it will make me happy.

Lots of love to you all.

mornin all, hope you all had a good day. and santa brough u all what u wanted

Congrats Twiga try to relax, I know it's hard hon, but we're all here for you, and can support you as well as ur DH/P.

Rudy - Congrats on your little boys steps, u must be briming with the pride.

Cockenzie - (((((((hugs)))))))) sorry about that hon, AF, how long have u been tryin for? hopefully we'll have a better month next cycle. That is an on going idea i've been havin, (can u have AF but OV/not) I only say that cos the past 7/8 cycles (can't remeber now) i've not had the smiley face on Clear blue, but thought i had the two line pos. then one month of Persona and had the 'O' followed by a smiley on clearblue, so I was wondering myself. (might explain a few things) the pills can take time for your ssytem to be completely normal again.

Does any one know thta question - can u AF without OV? - hester, Jedds any ideas? hope you two r ok. day 3 here, nothin happenin, apart from i'm doing a chrimstas diary for DH! lol, he called me sad when I told him (it's most haunted style!) lol.

Yeah Twiga! I am so pleased for you! We are all here to help you through the next 36 weeks and beyond.

AF arrived with a vengeance yesterday. Figures! Oh well, at least I know where I stand in that regard now.

Merry Christmas to all.

Good morning everyone had a great xmas day yesterday ds got spoilt rotten just need to find spots for all his toys now. got a beautiful jewlery box from dh and ds.
