Thought I'd start another thread as the last one was SO successful but is starting to take a while to load and I keep losing my place in it!

A quick update on my stats - on CD39 of third cycle since getting AF back after DS was born in April 2004 (10.5 months old).

Have endometriosis and PCOS so have decided to let nature take its course over the next few months and if I fall pg naturally, then so be it. If I don't, then we'll try clomid again (worked first time for us with DS).

Am still breastfeeding, so have erratic cycles - they were always long (so far have had AF visit twice and had 50 and 42-day cycles).

No idea when I ov - may try OPK's next month if no success this month (and don't think I am pg atm).

Think that's it!

Lots and lots of babydust to all the ttcers and lots and lots of babyglue to those who've just had BFPs (and more congrats!). xxx

Baby dust to all!!

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 11:06

cwmtydu - Thanks!! Hope you get pg soon. I don't know how to do baby dust but lots of it to you!!

Cwmtydu · 02/03/2005 10:57

Hi popadopalis! Thanks for the welcome. TTC #1 Day 12 today of a 28-30 day cycle, I'm 27 and so is DH.
I've been reading mn for a lot longer than I've been posting and conversation at home is usually based around what I've found out from mn today. DH just laughs at me .
good luck this month, hope af doesn't come

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 10:48

cwmtydu - Hello! Of course you can join in. I've only been here for a couple of days and I'm already addicted. I don't know whether to thank my friend or kill her for introducing me to this!! My Dh is beginning to worry!!

I'm the same as you, I have no one in RL to talk to either except the friend who introduced me to this but she lives at the opposite end of the country to me!

What's your stats? I'm 26, Dh is 29, we've been TTC#1 for five months now. I'm CD28 of 33-35 day cycle and getting depressed at the thought of Af in a week. Maybe I'll be pg but I don't feel too positive about it.

Cwmtydu · 02/03/2005 10:40

Hallo everyone I'm wondering if I can join this thread please? I'm now, after fantastic mumsnet encouragement, actively TTC although this is only the first month of trying really (had a brief go last month but I think it was after ov). Day 12 today so really going to go for it with the bd. I'm so excited about the whole thing but very apprehensive, and I've got nobody in real life to talk to about this at all, none of my friends seem to be at the same broody stage and I'm quite a private person and don't really want to broadcast it at work.

My DH bought some boxer shorts the other day, without being asked. I think that's the most wonderful thing he's ever done!

I'm so addicted to mumsnet! will take me a bit of time to get used to this way of talking and I'm a bit worried about seeming selfish and not acknowledging people. But hallo everyone anyway, I'll try!

COngratulations laylasmum

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 10:13

Laylasmum - CONGRATULATIONS!!! Hope you have a fab pg and not too much sickness and stuff.

expatinscotland · 02/03/2005 10:11

Congrats, Laylasmum! Happy and healthy 9 months to you!

Laylasmum · 02/03/2005 10:09

...Last posted on 22nd Feb since then no AF...yesterday tested x2 and got.......2 BFP!!!! really strong positives!!!! Still early days I know but heres hoping!!!

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 09:53

Thankfully Dh went to work at 5.30am so didn't have to witness me looking so fabulous when I woke up!!! Anyway, he loves him no matter what........right?!!

cp3 · 02/03/2005 09:51

Attractive Pop. Are you sure your still in honeymoon stage

Have a good day everyone, take care.

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 09:41

Starting to think I shouldn't have told you that!!

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 09:40

cp3 - Oh that's so sweet! I hope our honeymoon lasts that long. My Dh is a sweetie so should be okay.

Okay don't know why I'm telling you all this but I thought it was really funny and there's no one here to share it with as Dh has gone to work and I have no friends!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, last night I dreamt about loads of wierd things but part of it was that I was brushing my teeth. I kept re-brushing them because the toothpaste wouldn't come out of my mouth and I kept trying to apit it in the sink. When I woke up I found I was in a pile of drool!! I must have actually been spitting in my sleep!! How pleasant!!

expatinscotland · 02/03/2005 09:36

Things I hate most about the week before AF: sore boobs, bloating and NAUSEA! ARRGGGGHHH!

cp3 · 02/03/2005 09:32

Pop been with my partner 7 years and we are still in our honey moon stage. Lost it for a bit once after the kids but def back on form now.

I pigged out on chocolate yesterday but apart from that no other af signs yet!

expatinscotland · 02/03/2005 09:32

I'm not even deluding myself that I'm pregnant. OPKs didn't detect any O so can't be. But yeah, I'm all topped up on e/thing I need for AF and I'm just thinking, 'Bring it on, you witch! I'll get the best of you one day!'

fresco · 02/03/2005 09:31

sparkly, big huggies for you, and mayb still a chance for you to be pg? lots of thoughts for you.

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 09:30

Hey munzie!! We used to be at it everyday but it got to the stage where poor Dh was so knackered by the time that I was ov that he was backing away!!! I was like a head mistress with a whip, "You will do it because I said so".

P.S. There was no actual whip involved

katierocket · 02/03/2005 09:27

thanks expat, I have to say that I am very intrigued by it all.

I HATE the week before AF when you have cramps etc - you just want it to come so you can move on but at the same time you think well maybe...

expatinscotland · 02/03/2005 09:26

Katie
Glad to hear your accupuncture appointment went well! It really works.

Waiting for AF to show up next Tuesday and am getting all the usual feelings I get the week before AF. Am anxious for her to appear so as to move onto the next cycle. But sort of miffed b/c my sister will be here to visit on Sunday - hate to be bothered by AF. So I've stocked up on ibuprofen to be ready for the cramps.

popadopalis · 02/03/2005 09:25

cp3 - Only been married for about 8 months so I'll get to that stage soon! Still in the honeymoon-ish stage! Plus Dh quite sensitive and it's not worth the days of moping!!!!

So is anyone ready to test soon? I'm CD28 of 33-35ish day cycle. Feeling a bit sicky this morning but most probably due to the large quantity of chocolate I consumed late last night in an attempt to console myself!!
