Onwards and upwards. I've added the stats!!

Thanks for updating list littlemiss! Its going to be a great few weeks with lots of BFP's hopefully!!

As for me I'm sure the witch is knocking on the door! Feeling a few rumblings and a bit of brown spotting today . Its just so annoying that its my first time late ever and was hoping like mad! I have 11 friends PG at the moment and half of them were not even trying to get PG. Fingers crossed but feeling very doubtful right now

littlemissmischief · 14/09/2008 17:36

Hi all - Welcome VickyJane

Have had a very nice relaxing day with my boys and am now cooking a roast - Yummy!

Just did my Ov test for today and it was a darker line again, but still a negative but hoping it will be a positive soon but we have been BD loads just in case, hoping my 2ww can start soon though cos im getting bored! Gonna update the list now.x

VickyJane77 · 14/09/2008 15:20

Hi all,
Can I join? I'm currently CD17 on a 31 day cycle, TTC#2. I had a MC back in June and were going to wait 3 months before trying agian, but we feel ready now, so lots of BDing this weekend, though I think we may have missed it this month, but will find out in a couple of weeks.
Here's hoping for June babies!

Waiting2Exhale · 14/09/2008 00:02

Hi All....

MrsMcJnr Wow...oats hey...when should I have started that or does it not matter. Will try anything me . Good thing is I actually love oats so would be a pleasure to add this to my diet on a more regular basis . Really feel you on the IL tip. Their my worse nightmare and the only real reason me and DP really argue . Currently in the middle of one of those arguments now...however the good thing is, am on the 2ww (knew I'd find something good about this time)so at least I don't need DP for anything at the mo to make me have to concede at this point.

LovelyMonster Hang in there....this could be the one....only a couple more days to go before I would test as your bound to get a BFP if the witch hasn't arrived by then .

dinkyboysmum its so very early you don't really have to count it as an early test ehehehhe...this still be your month.

Minshu massive welcome. Its great to see new members joining and their darling new partners on board to baby making.

Me calendar day 22 of 29 and still very bored with this 2ww. Current syptoms include a pulling low down near my groin which could be implantation but unlike. Nothing else to report really. Hope all is well with everyone else..nite nite...

Minshu · 13/09/2008 23:07

MrsMcJnr - I'm assuming there can be only one? I was on mn when you were ttc#1 - but left due to dh becoming xh... So pleased to hear that you are now ttc#2, but sorry to hear about the hassle you are getting.

I now have a bright shiny new dp and we've been ttc for 6 or 7 months. Just joined another thread, but had to post when I saw your name - you were always a voice of reassurance and reason on the old thread...

MrsMcJnr · 13/09/2008 22:40

Twoplease ? do you know how long the pre ovulatory (follicular) phase of your cycle is? If that?s the short bit and you have a 10 day LP or more, there?s nothing to worry about even if it is the luteal phase that is short, there are lots of things you can do to prolong it

Littlemissmischief ? all sounding good with you, hope it?s your month!

Lovelymonster ? interesting! Try and hang on a few more days!

Dinkyboysmum ? sorry the test was BFN hon oats apparently help regulate hormones

Ggggggggggggggrrrrrrrrr ? 4 family members (all male I might add) have asked me if I am pg again yet because DS would like a sister, FGS, he?s 7 months old. My FIL is the biggest pain, every week after my MC before we got pg with DS he asked me if I was pg again can?t believe he?s started harassing me already.

dinkyboysmum · 13/09/2008 20:43

i'd test if i were you...but then i just did a test on CD7! well, it wasnt really my fault you see...
I went for reflexology, all very relaxing a nice. from just my feet she said she could feel lots of tension in my neck (true - v. stessed at work at the mo), she said she could feel tension in my knee (true - badly inflamed knee joint at the moment), she said she could feel congestion (true - recovering from cold), then she asked 'when was the last time you did a pg test?' to which i said last week & AF has arrived since...she said i should go do another as i was quite 'tender' around my ovaries. she said it could be pg, or could be O approaching, but definitly a centre of energy at the moment. well, that wa sred flag to a bull, dashed off to boots...BFN of course.... dragging dh off in a mo
total cost for the whole experience £55!!! yes, i have booked in for next week...i think there's something in this reflexology lark.

why oats MrsMcJnr?

LovelyMonster · 13/09/2008 15:53

Hi everyone!!!

Well I am back from my holiday and had a fantastic time! Lovely and hot and sunny!

CD30 today! Have taken a couple of tests while away but BFN (cheap test?). Just a bit strange though cause I'm never ever late. My shortest cycle is 22 days and longest 28. Not sure if the holiday has put me out of sync or what? Wondering if I should test with the good CB test? Advice please! Im starting to feel nervous....

littlemissmischief · 13/09/2008 09:18

Morning all, just off to work but thought id say hi since you were all back, Ive been very lonely the last couple of days!

JLo2 - that is defo fate make the most of him before Monday

Dinkyboysmum - Good luck with the reflexology - sounds great!

MrsMcJnr - sorry you got a BFN hun, It does seem strange? I hope the old red witch doesnt arrive!

Mintchocaddict - Glad you can start the fun bit now, fingers crossed for you this month!!

Twoplease - so sorry AF got you today, the plus side of having shorter cycles is that you get more chances and you dont have such a long agonising wait, but might be worth looking into the ovulation side, good luck!

Well im on CD21 and as I said earlier in the thread, I got a faint line on the OV sticks yesterday and the day before im hoping this is leading to a positive but me and dp having been doing lots of BDing just incase anyway Im feeling positive this month for us girlies x

twoplease · 13/09/2008 08:10

Hi all,

been a bit absent as hubby and i are self-employed and it has been a v busy week!

Thanks for all the hints and tips, am gonna need them as (and sorry to drag the board down after Mints positive vibe) AF got me this morning on CDbloody23!!

am now starting to worry that with such short cycles, there's not enough time after ovulation to implant - need to research!!

as i have such short cycles, am still on for a June one so will come back when I'm not so darn cross!!

wishing better luck on everyone else!!

MintChocAddict · 13/09/2008 01:00

Hi All,

Just checking in to say hi. AF has finally left the building for this month so let the fun n games begin!
Lots of positive thoughts and vibes for everyone. Here's to BFP's all round

MrsMcJnr · 13/09/2008 00:08

That?s odd Yellowflowers eating oats and taking evening primrose oil in the first part of your cycle is meant to help too!

Hello Jools1 hang in there!

Alfiemama ? good luck when you decide to hon!

Waitingtoexhale ? we had some almighty storms after my rain comments but I kind of like them we are in Malaga province.

Twoplease ? friends I know swear by legs in the air after BDing to increase your chances!!

Well my software says today is CD522! I?ve been having really sore cramps and tenderness plus nausea etc so did a test, it was BFN but OPK was positive but I really don?t feel in the mood with these cramps?.

dinkyboysmum · 12/09/2008 20:22

woohoo...it's the weekend!!!

i'm cd6 and have my first reflexology session tomorrow

JLo2 · 12/09/2008 20:04

I think fate has had a hand in my month. My husband was supposed to go to France (for work)yesterday for a week just when I'm ovulating BUT he got stuck at Ashford on Eurostar due to the Channel Tunnel fire and then on the M20 trying to get a ferry and eventually gave up and came home (8 hours later) This means that he has had to postpone the trip and will be home until Monday at least
Is that fate or what???

MamaMimi · 12/09/2008 18:46

thanks 1littleprincess for updating me (along with everyone else)on the list.

I haven't been around for a bit, just been quite busy/tired. Hope everyone is doing okay and sticking to the mission. I will pop back when I have had chance to catch up on the thread and on what's happened since I was here last.

1LittlePrincess · 12/09/2008 00:46

Yellow flowers i'll keep my fingers crossed for next week.....More to the point, how are YOU doing with symptom spotting

Alfiemama So sorry that the witch got you. Enjoy your time with your DS's, and wish your lots of luck when you do TTC again

littlemissmischief Sorry I would love to beable to answer your question, but......I know nothing! Hope you get you answer though and Yay!!! You finally got a line on the OPK. Whoop!

Still no signs of Ov for me

Hey ladies, can I ask your advice... I just did my Ov test and it had a faint 2nd line (first time since using them) I know this is a negative but does it just get darker now till I ovulate or can you get this anytime through your cycle or will I ovulate soon? Hope one of you can help, I have no idea

littlemissmischief · 11/09/2008 14:42

Oh Alfiemama sorry hun! Love your positve attitude though and sure you little boy will love having you all to himself!

Welcome Abstractmouse - Hope you got the timing right and you join the many of us on this thread that are due for BFP's this month (positive thinking!)

Still no positvie Ov yet but not done todays yey although i feel pretty sure it eill be a negative!! Just want to Ovulate os I know where I am and then can atleast start the long wait, this month feels like forever!! Cant even start symptom spotting yet, wheres the fun in that

Hope all you other ladies are having more fun x

alfiemama · 11/09/2008 11:36

Hi everyone

She got me, grrrrr

Oh well decided not the right time for us, with Alfie starting school my other little one Archie deserves some time with mummy on his own and after my pregnancy with him, we nearly lost as born with heart back to front, makes me appreciate what I have, so we are goig to put on the backburner for a while.

Good luck to you all hope you get lots of sticky beans.

Alfie/archiemama
