Thought I'd start a new thread for those of us who are out for May. Love to see some of my old friends here as well as maybe some new ones

funkybumps - Put down the pg test and go and make a cup of tea/mow the lawn/go shopping... Anything but test
Seriously, I know how hard it is, but it really is best to wait until you're due. Keep busy and stay away from the bathroom

Can I join this one? A June baby would be lovely. I already have one of those, and I like him a lot! TTC#2, CD18

lillypie · 29/08/2008 14:58

STEP AWAY FROM THE TEST!!!!!

funkybumps · 29/08/2008 14:20

hi girls, is it too early to test with an ebay cheapie on CD24 ?? I am due on Tuesday. Please help, I'm ready to cave in !!

Linwin · 29/08/2008 13:29

Hello tyaca, wasabipeanut and bamboostalks !

Waiting2exhale I don't know what the saliva microscope thing is you mention but I most definitely need one. Tell more...

bamboostalks · 29/08/2008 13:15

Hey can I join too? Was on the other thread but now a sad refugee here! cd 6 for me which (tragically) I have already worked out would mean a due date of 31st May.

Jools1 · 29/08/2008 09:21

wasabipeanut · 29/08/2008 09:18

Hey can I join? CD8 today.

Hello Jools waves

sammysam · 29/08/2008 08:56

Thank you! Linwin-i know it prob is quite normal it just makes you feel like a complete bitch though ,especially when i know if it was my sister i WOULD be happy-but that is another story!

Forgot to say congratulations mrsleroyjetrogibbs-lets hope it rubs off on everyone else!

My cycle has been quite long (33-36 days)since dd so a little while til I ovulate (hopefully), i'm a little worried i might not be or more likely might be ovulating too late as i'm still breastfeeding. Last month i started having acupuncture to help-I hope

Waiting2Exhale · 29/08/2008 02:52

Hi ladies, has anyone tried one of those saliva microscope things...thinking of getting one, not sure which one or even if they are worth getting....any answers/suggestings would be greatly appreciated...

mrsleroyjethrogibbs BFP,

Massive congrats to mrsleroyjetrogibbs...great start to this thread so early on. What due date would that make you...think you might have just made it into May... .

Tyaca...CD = calendar day,i.e. the day you are, in your cycle, day one being the first day of AF.

JLo2...nice to see the stats up again. Makes it so much easier to know where everyone are. Thanks for doing that. Will try to help keep it up to date. Have done today [friday] already as I have been up late colouring my hair in the event that this won't be possible if I get a BFP this/next month

Welcome Sammysam and Clairey80 (Claire is this your first child your ttc?)

tyaca · 28/08/2008 23:48

can i join?? will you overlook my ignorance with the acronymns? i know TTC but thats it .

am trying to TTC # 2. have a 6mo dd, desparate to have another sooner rather than later but dd still in our room and the TTC'ing isnt really happening . plus i have this silly hang up about wanting a baby born between april and june cause dh teaches and want him around for the tough first bit during his summer holidays. silly, i know.

what does CD mean? according to those online conception calculators i am ovulating from today. have in laws up this weekend so no spare room even. and now dh late back from being on the piss so am sulking. ah well - sorry to have started with a moan. i will focus all my attention on vibe-sending for you guys.

congrats mrs leroy!

sammysam welcome and thanks for the positive thoughts!

Don't be down on yourself about being jealous of other PG people, t'is perfectly natural and I think doubly worse when its close friends and relatives. My sis is due in 4 weeks and got PG very quickly. As long as I keep my thoughts to myself and MN I reckon I'll do okay!

sammysam · 28/08/2008 21:24

Can i tentively join? I'm trying to avoid thinking about it too much this month-but i know i'll have days where i'll cave and be sure that i am and will need to offload symptoms
We're TTC #2, have an amazing DD who is 25months so i'm feeling the pressure as there is only a couple of months before there will be a 4yr school yr gap iyswim? This will be our 6th month i think. Also extra depressed as BIL's baby is due next fri-it can be hard to be happy sometimes-god i'm nasty
Had wierd period pains AFTER my period finished this month so that worried me as was very stange....fingers crossed its nothing nasty.

I haven't tested at all yet (haven't really needed to as have vowed that i def won't test til after AF due-but I now have 2 tests waiting and i'm sure this month i'll give in

Thinking positive thoughts for everyone!

Jools1 · 28/08/2008 16:41

Not entirely sure about my cycle ! The last three have been 29, 26 and 27 days and I wasn't really paying attention before then, but I do know they changed drastically after I had a really really bad bout of gastroenteritis in March - I used to have a 35 day cycle that ran like clockwork till then !

yellowflowers · 28/08/2008 15:08

Hi Jools1 (and lillypie)

Great to be in synch though my cycle about 30 days. What about you two? We're on holiday next week (cd 14-19 so am hoping for some action every day).

littlemissmischief · 28/08/2008 12:08

Hi girls, not sure whether I should join this or the May thread ( but noticed you included the end of May also lol )

TTC#2 Cycle 2 - CD 23 of a 28 day cycle.

Think I missed my ov day this month though so am guessing I'll be out shortly, although I am feeling sick all of the time.

Linwin · 28/08/2008 09:15

Oh dear tink sorry to hear that, it sounds like you were in a similar boat to me - I was so sure as well it was my month.

mrsleroy I can't get access to the links as work has restricted those sites whatever they are.

Here are my stats -

Linwin TTC #1 Cycle 3 - CD2

tink08 · 28/08/2008 08:57
