Hi wondered if any one else was aiming for an August baby and fancied joining me this month to pass the time. This will be our 3rd cycle of TTC now and im on CD1 but staying positive.

My details are

Gemma C, TTC#2, usual cycle length 28-32 days, cd1

Please feel free to add yourself to the list, I would love some company.

Congratulations babybump! so glad you went for that digital! Here's to a happy and healthy pg for you.

ANd to you to trying4tallulah - yuo'd better start practising the 'I'm on antibiotics' ine

Liahgen, so sorry, take care of yourself.

Well, while you lot were chatting last night, i was starting this month's bd marathon. Oh, and getting depressed after reading another thread about c-secs and fertility . anyone got some positive stories about ttc after a c-sec? NO one mentioned that to me after I'd had dd.(saying that, I wouldnt have had dd if I hadn't had a c-sec, we nearly lost her, so I am eternally grateful to those drs.)
sorry to dampen the mood.
lol at you lot and your tv - i'm jealous, i never get time! must go and do some work, dh has taken dd out so i can catch up and he'll kill me if he know's i'm on MN!

trying4tallulah · 30/11/2008 09:24

First response, it actually showed a very feint line yesterday (5 days before AF due) but I did not really believe it until this mornings which was a definate line!!

Have been pregnant twice before I had a feeling I was pregnant - I burst into tears on Friday for no reason at all! I knew there was something going on with my hormones!!

RipMacWinkle · 30/11/2008 09:20

Oh my goodness - that's brilliant trying4tallulah.

We're really racking up these BFPs now - will there be any babydust left for me Rip wails?!?

Just wondering - according to the list you're still early. Did you use a First Response or a usual test? Just wondering if it's worth getting one in today for next weekend....

trying4tallulah · 30/11/2008 09:11

I got my BFP this morning - very excited, a lovely ealry Christmas pressie. Now just need to think of lots of excuses as to why I wont be drinking in the next few weeks (most unlike me!!! Good luck to everyone still in the 2WW x x x

ellsbellzie · 30/11/2008 00:22

Liahgen I was posting when you were, just read your message! So sorry, hope your dh comes round!x

ellsbellzie · 30/11/2008 00:17

WOW!! Babybumps I bet your on cloud nine, I guess those digis are well worth buying, especially seeing that word PREGNANT! Which is now what your are Congrats!x

Good luck for those who are B-Ding as we speak, in laws and all!! I was suppose to be but sat looking at my man asleep on the sofa with his hand down his pants, snoring like a good un isnt too enticing, so decided to have a nosey on here instead! Good night and lucky baby dancing to you all!!XXXX

liahgen · 29/11/2008 23:44

af arrived for me 2 days early last weds, and dh tells me he doesn't want anymore so you can take me off the list please.

well done and huge congrats to all bfp's and good luck to everyone else. Being a mummy is like nothing else in the world. x

Issy42 · 29/11/2008 23:37

Excellent news BabyBump, so happy for you .

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 23:18

You're very welcome Night night, I'm off home now x

BabyBump2B · 29/11/2008 23:16

ripMacWinkle, Headfairy, Sunnydale - thank you so much.

And Sunnydale you do have a way with words! Good luck - I think this is a very lucky thread!

{Sprinkles sticky baby dust everywhere!}

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 23:07

sunnydale

Now this is definitely tmi, but hey... dh is always very quiet in the sack, even at his moment of "triumph". I was a bit nervous about mentioning it when we first got together but eventually he explained it's because after his mum and dad divorced he lived in a flat with his mum, her room was the other side of the wall to his bedroom and whenever he'd had whichever girlfriend of the day round, he'd had to be so quiet it had become habit. You'd better start practising the "your ILs are in the next room" method of bd'ing

RipMacWinkle · 29/11/2008 23:03

Sunnydale - LOL!! You have such a way with words. The visual image you've just created!!!!

Sunnydale · 29/11/2008 23:01

Babybump! So so happy for you! Your news has cheered me up after Ruth being voted off the X Factor! (to be superficial for a moment, heh heh). Time to update the list methinks - hope this will continue to be a lucky thread! Right, time to drag DH away from Match of the Day to do some BD-ing. Would love to try to seduce him, but bit tricky with father in law sitting with flies undone and mother in law asking for some Gaviscon. Who said romance was dead, eh?! Many congrats again, Babybump xxx

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 22:52

oh oh oh and..... (can you tell I'm excited?) it's all bringing back memories of when I got my first bfp, my hand was shaking so much when I showed dh the stick he couldn't read it, he had to hold my hand. I was sobbing like a baby

RipMacWinkle · 29/11/2008 22:51

Oh wow - just logged back in on an off chance. Let me be the first to congratulate you on such a definite BFP!! Fantastic news.

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 22:51

Oh and isn't that "pregnant" word on the stick the most satisfying thing you'll ever see?

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 22:50

Oh wow!!! Congratulations babybump2b (never a more appropriate name eh? )

Digital sticks are the way forward!

Yay yay and double yay! BFPs a go go!!!

BabyBump2B · 29/11/2008 22:48

Ok ladies - couldn't resist! Peed on a digital stick and... its BFP I burst into tears when I saw it. I'm absolutely blown away and will be peeing on some other sticks just to be sure before I see the Dr on Monday!

Eeeeeeeeeeek!!!!!

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 22:39

Thanks Issy, good to know I'm not the only paranoid hypochondriac When I was pg with ds I was so paranoid about ectopic pregnancy as I've had chlamydia before (despite the fact that I've had dye injected through my tubes to confirm they were clear - they were). I didn't stop worrying til I got to 10 weeks, by which time I thought I would have felt it. Then I started worrying about mmc! I never give myself a break!

Luckily I'm not on a full night shift, due to finish at midnight thirty, but I may get away before midnight

Issy42 · 29/11/2008 22:03

Thanks all.

Babybump - is the line blue/pink or grey? According to the peeonastick website if it's a coloured line it's a positive but if it's a grey one it could be an evaporation line. I'm sure it's a positive for you but as the others say check again tomorrow. Send that dh of yours to a 24-hour Tesco so you can use fmu .

Snap Sunnydale. Hope Diana doesn't go - she's so sweet. Don't feel you can't complain, I'm just of the rest of you . Not sure I really want to picture the image of your FIL though .

Headfairy totally with you on the obsessing. I had really sharp pains on one side a few days after treatment last time and was convinced it was an ectopic. Hope the night shift is moving quickly for you.

HeadFairy · 29/11/2008 21:50

aw thanks sunnydale... I'm at your glass of wine. I'm at work and on 2ww so no wine for me. I'm watching I'm a celeb waiting for the x factor results (busy night at work ) I'm trying very hard not to start symptom spotting after all my "wise" words to wishing, but it's perishing cold in my office and my nips are standing to attention, much like they do when I'm pg
