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.

So sorry Wishing

wishing i am gutted for you. You are having a rough time. i hope you get the answers you need. x

HeadFairy · 12/12/2008 19:22

So sorry to hear that wishing, I hope you get some answers from the doc on monday. Do please keep in touch when you can bear to come back. I totally understand how hard it is, it took me 18 months to get ds and it felt like there were pregnant people everywhere! Try and think about taking a break and enjoying Christmas, have a few drinks and do all the things you can't really do when you're ttc. Take care xxxx

olivo · 12/12/2008 18:09

oh wishing, so sorry to hear this. please take care of yourself and come back when you're ready.

VeryKeenForABean · 12/12/2008 18:05

Sorry wishing x-posted there.

So sorry to hear you didn't get any resolution. How disappointing. Thank goodness the dr is paying attention and listening to you on this.

Take care of yourself and let us know how you are, thinking of you ((((hugs))))

VeryKeenForABean · 12/12/2008 18:02

Thinking of you wishing, let us know how it goes.

Good luck for tomorrow ilike - how exciting!!

I decided to drink at the work xmas party - the first I've had in ages, but feel that not constantly thinking I might be about to conceive is the best way to not get too obsessed. Kind of hoping sod's law would mean then I do manage it, like my friend who booked a really expensive ski holiday after months trying and then fell pg straight away!! Just hope I don't regret it - it's so difficult to know which way to go isn't it

I don't think I've ov'd yet but carrying out our plan of bding as much as poss over this w/e - fingers crossed .

Access diagnostics have got a code for 10% off this weekend AD3DAY if anyone wants to use it.

well there is no bean but the dr has no idea what is going on, to say i was so chilled im now gutted!! i am so nfed up with this, where has af gone, why is my body doing this?? im fed up of seeing 16 year old girls running round with baby bumps and prams!! its so unfair a baby is all i want and yet another girl announced her pregnancy at work today it feels like my time is never going to come, its been 12 months now and we havent gotten a bean - dr is having me back monday as they didnt take enough blood and he wants to run more test - he also wants a swab of cm since there is so much of it!! im just scared now that this is going to get even harder!!

i will keep an eye on the boards but i dont think i will be around for a while girlies, please take me off the list, i cant face being on it right now!! I wish you all luck and hopw your wishes come true!! Mine certainly dont seem to be!!

I will around but dont worry if you dont see me for long periods!!

Thank you so much for your support

olivo · 12/12/2008 17:45

oh, wishing, how confusing. i hope the dr has answers for you, please let us know.
girlwithacurl, glad you finally got that temp rise; your poor DH can have a rest now!. i am lucky that at Christmas i will be driving anyway, although i haven't drunnk for a while, except for a large glass of wine the day AF last visited me!
suzi, I would do another test, and then, is it worth seeing your GP?
sleeves, how was your scan?

I am fine; really busy at work so not too much time to think about things. also DD not well AGAIN so time passing!
I will not symptom spot, I will not symptom spot........

BabyBump2B · 12/12/2008 16:40

Wishing poor you! I hate waiting!!!! Fingers crossed for 6pm for you!

HeadFairy · 12/12/2008 16:14

Oh wishing, what a nightmare! I hope it's good news at 6pm. If you feel up to it come and tell us what the result is, I've got the champers on standby (cos I can drink now af is here hahahahahahahaha!)

Wishing · 12/12/2008 15:06

ok girlies, a bfn greeted me this morning and dh nearly lost the plot, insisted i call the drs who was also puzzled and this time very helpful!! saw me at 11 am and did lots of tests and blood tests, he is calling me at around 6pm tonight with the results. so Im waiting!! why does 3 hours seem like such a long time when the last 6 weeks has FLOWN!!! I arent very hopeful though as surely it would show on HPT - dr didnt seem to want to rule it out though he said he had had a lot of patients who had not got a bfp on a hpt till late on and some never!! im still not feeling anything though - except tierd

love to all and thanks for checking on me!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

SuziBhoy · 12/12/2008 10:50

hi olivo i tested last thursday and still no bfp, ive convinced myself im on a new cycle, but i think i might test again just in case then if i get a bfn i will just take that as my answer and continue trying. how are you?

girlwithacurl · 12/12/2008 10:24

Wishing good luck if you do decide to test. I can't believe how patient you are being, I would be going crazy by now!

Olivo finally got a temp rise today... on CD27!! DP is VERY reieved so I am now with you on the wait! frustrated as this spans Christmas and if I don't know then I will not be drinking, but AF could turn up boxing day!

Wishing everyone christmas baby dust/sticking/successful BD'ing

ilikeyoursleeves · 11/12/2008 21:14

Yes it's still a BFP lol, and no I don't think it's sunk it at all yet. I don't have any symptoms really so that's why I've been worried but then I didn't get any symptoms with DS either! Although I have been eating loads of crips and fruit sweeties....

I think I am 7 weeks today if my dates are correct so if all is well there should be a heartbeat tomorrow (please please please please).

Congrats Pippy too! There have been quite a few BFPs from this thread eh? Wishing here's wishing you're next x

Wishing · 11/12/2008 21:09

hahaha what are you like!! take it was a BFP!!!

ilikeyoursleeves · 11/12/2008 21:04

Oh I have a good feeling for you! Good luck if you do decide to pee on a stick tomorrow

I'm good thanks, I managed to get an early scan booked via my GP due to my infertility history etc so that's tomorrow morning! Can't wait although I am nervous in case there's nothing there, I even did another HPT yesterday!
