Oh you could be our second set of twins on the thread. I would say one of them was a false + though as there is a big gap between them....

glaskham · 30/06/2008 17:47

oh and i'm kinda worried i did OV twice and if both eggs get fertilised and stick then it'll be twins- no way i can have 4 kids but dont wanna risk not getting pg if the first + was a false!! though i'd rather be pg with twins than never have another!!

glaskham · 30/06/2008 17:45

thats kinda my plan LB, GOFed ever day since day 8 of cycle... DH isn't complaining and luckily i'm still up for it even if i am ill!!

DH kinda protested GOFing with an ill wife last night but i told him to just shut up and get on with it!! haha!! haven't kissed him properly in nearly 6 days now because of my tonsilitis though!!

lardybump · 30/06/2008 17:34

Oh no it is worth it but just wish I would be sick instead of just feeling sick iykwim.

I think that you may have had a false reading one of the times on the opk but keep doinking just incase...

glaskham · 30/06/2008 17:17

aww- sorry your getting sickness!! i swear i dont know why we do it.... maybe i should try and stop now before i get pg and am sick too!!!

lardybump · 30/06/2008 17:05

Just wish I could be sick maybe I would feel better?? Tink nice belly bet mine will beat it at that stage it is well on its way now.... I am 6 weeks today....

glaskham · 30/06/2008 17:02

oh and tink- i can beat that tummy without being pregnant!! i can still look very pregnant if i breath right out!!!......

where is everyone today???

glaskham · 30/06/2008 16:34

wow tink, bump is big for 11wks!! but nice and tidy!!

I tried paracetamol the first day but didn't feel any relief, and ibuprofen seem to ease it a bit!!

GYo- well i'm a little confused right now as to wether my 2ww is up on the 10th or the 14th!

Here you go girls decifer (sp?) this one for me, tested on day 10 and got +opk, got a faint pos on day 11 too, then day 12 was nothing, kept testing as i have never OV'd as early as day 11 before.... got another positive opk today, day 14.... will that mean i have OV'd twice or just have extremely cheap opk's?

tinkspregnantwithnumber2 · 30/06/2008 16:02

have a pic of my tummy on profile
can anyone beat mine lol

calsworld · 30/06/2008 13:34

Hey all, been manically busy - currently on CD20 and not managed to GOF for a few days as both DH and I have had tummy upsets. We're not that determined!

Glaskham, you should take paracetamol not ibuprofen - not sure why though gentler on tummy...

KK seems like quite late in cycle but am thinking I might be same as you and if that is the case, may well have missed the boat this month due to illnesses.

Its been so long now that I don't feel excited or disappointed by TTC and not being on here so much has really helped calm things down a bit, definitely less obsessed . I saw a pregnant lady whilst I was out in germany last week and remembered that we're trying!!

I'd best scoot as i'm supposed to be in a meeting,

Take care all,
Cal

GYo · 30/06/2008 12:32

Hi Glaskham

When is your 2WW up?

Im reaching end of 2WW on 9th/10th July.

GYo.

glaskham · 30/06/2008 10:47

Morning, sorry for you loss 2BG, missed that yesterday. Your nan sounds like she's going to be looked after well!!

Sorry about the headaches too Kayz and Tink, its awful when you just cant do anythign about it isn't it!!

I'm worried about taking meds atm as i honestly think i'm in my 2ww at the moment, and got awful tonsilitis and banging migrane together!! So been coping on 2 ibuprofens a day my thinking being if i get a +hpt in a couple of weeks i'll feel better that i barely took anything, and if i get a -hpt then i know i took them 2 a day to relieve a bit of my pain!!

kayzisexpecting · 30/06/2008 10:16

I'm 16 weeks Aunty. I'm going to try that 4head stuff you can get. Hopefully it might do something.

kookykid · 30/06/2008 09:39

Morning everyone,

Sorry to hear you're not feeling great, Kay and Tink. Hope you feel better soon and your DCs are nice to you! Can imagine 2nd pregnancy must be so different from the first having a lo to look after.
I was so tempted to find out the sex when pg with DD but DH persuaded me not too. Glad in the end as it gave me something to focus on when in labour! Not sure I'd be able to hold out a second time though!

Gruffalo sounds like your bday celebrations were fun... know what you mean about thinking about babies all the time - it's hard to switch off when ttc. Think loads of us will be testing at around the same time. It's been a bit quiet on the BFP front recently!

Well, I finally got a strong positive with my cheapy OPK and a smiley face with Clearblue. Think CD21 is quite late to OV in a 30-31 day cycle, but feeling a little more hopeful than a couple of days ago. DH and I GOFing rather feebly as both feel rubbish with this cold. We feel like the least romantic couple in the world as GOF and then sleep in seperate rooms!

Have a good day everyone.

auntyspan · 30/06/2008 09:19

Sorry to hear about your headaches - how far gone are you now - I started to use lavender oil with DD and it completely cleared up the headaches. I got the holistic stuff from boots, comes in a gel form so you don't need carrier oil.

I'm seeing doc on Friday and want to ask about being referred for a nuchal fold scan - I should ask as early as poss yes? Also going to push for an early scan as I had a mc a couple of years ago.

Good luck with the gender spotting!!

GruffaloSoldier · 30/06/2008 09:12

Sorry to hear about the headaches kayz and tinks!

Fingers crossed that you will both find out gender!

I am trying my hardest not to symptom spot at the moment but it is so difficult not to let myself get carried away!

tinkspregnantwithnumber2 · 30/06/2008 08:22

kayzisexpecting · 30/06/2008 07:00

Hello!

Sorry about your Grandad 2bg.

I have spend almost all weekend in bed. Still getting awful headaches and I'm not sleeping. Drinking enough water to mean I should be classed as a fish!! NHS direct and the doctors just say "drink more water and get some rest" Yeah because DS knows what letting Mummy have some sleep means

Hope everyone is ok. I'm going on holiday soon and I can't bloody wait!! Then a few days after we get home its my 20 week scan. I have decided if they can't tell me the sex I am going to have a private scan to find out.

GruffaloSoldier · 29/06/2008 21:36

Hello everyone

Sorry for your loss 2bg.

It was my birthday last wednesday and I have been trying to drag out the celebrations for as long as possible! Friday went out for a meal with friends and today DH did a roast (I helped) for us two and 4 of my closest friends (two couples). It was great!

Had a really busy week but have managed to GOF at least every other night! I think I ovulated around Thursday so will be testing in about two weeks! I'm having trouble thinking about anything other than babies! Which is a problem as I have three weeks to complete first draft of dissertation

tinkspregnantwithnumber2 · 29/06/2008 21:21

hi ladies

so sorry 2bgs take care
what is that nj that is a ridicolous price isnt it
good luck ses with house and @ epu

we went to bournemouth had a look in ocenarium and had lunch @ a harry ramsdens restaurant yummy. my hubby and dd1 went on a carousel and she paddled in the sea had a great time. weather was sunny but very windy by the sea

glaskham · 29/06/2008 20:38

evening all... nice to have you back NJ!!

DH and I went to see wanted at the pics today, and going to watch Hancock on weds too... then i cooked a massive roast to feed 9 at my mums afterwards... dont know why i voulenteered really!! but i enjoyed the food.

still unsure if i OV'd on day 10 or not.... been GOFing everyday still anyway, sometimes twice for fun still... OPK's haven't picked up a positive since.... so thinking i could now be in my 2ww, which means i'll be due to test around the 10th july, but will leave testing till the 11th as its 6years to the day since we got together then, so may be nice to have a date to remember it with!!

Ses15 · 29/06/2008 19:39

Hi all!

2bg - really sorry to hear about your grandad. I know we all expect to lose our grandparents at some point but it doesn't make it any easier. I know when my Nana died a few years back I found it really tough. Good that your nan's off to spend time with your aunt and I hope you manage to come to terms with your loss. Thinking of you...

BBQ was nice and we've still got plenty of food left over if anyone wants to pop round???!! Rain stayed away! Anyway, football should kick off soon!

Diege · 29/06/2008 13:48

Afternoon! Just back from Pizza Express with dh and dds and it's only just stopped raining. Staying in for the rest of the day I think, watching videos with dds .
Kooky, lol at Nadal . Had to keep a really serious, 'isn't the tennis great' face on when watching it with dh, when indise I was just screaming phwoar!!!! .
2bg, sorry to hear about your grandad . Sounds like your nan is doing the right thing in surrounding herself with family, and no doubt you will be keeping yourself busy with that party . Just think how great it'll feel when everyone has left .
Hi to everyone else and speak later (football pending...I will be supporting Spain in honour of Nadal )

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 29/06/2008 11:15

Ooooh sorry 2BG, should have read up the thread Good luck with the party

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 29/06/2008 11:14
