Still here and now hoping for a OCTOBER baby!!! Everyone welcome please join me :)

Hello everyone

I've been lurking but thought I'd finally join in. Had an MC about a year ago, only just summoned up the courage to start trying again.

I'm on CD22, so a week to go before I can start testing. I had ov pains last weekend and so went for it, but I doubt very much whether I'll get a BFP this month as surely it won't happen this soon. Can't believe what a mare ttc is, I'm already turning into a crazy woman, symptom spotting like mad!

Been feeling lots of 'activity' in my lower abdomen lately and I feel very queasy, but this could easily be PMT. After the MC I had acupuncture, and the therapist said that very early conception and PMT can often feel the same due to similar hormonal surges.

Anyway, here's lots of love and luck to everyone, and big congrats to the graduates!

Welcome halfmum

Can I join you ladies?

HMHB ttc #2 cycle (not sure what this means? number of periods since started trying???? If so 0) CD 14

Unfortunately DH has just gone away with work for a week so that could scupper our chances!

Had a MC at end of September (was 5 wks pg).

hi early sorry to hear about AF, do stay with us!

I think I will stay to see how the rest of you get on. DS stayed at GP last night so I am still in bed and I intend to stay here for a while. DH downstairs making b'fast in bed
baby dust to everyone xxxxx

Thanks bubble but AF arrived during the night. Do you think I hould start a November thread???

Morning ladies, I hope everyone is well. I plan to test when dh get's back from the UK which is another 13 days away (if af hasn't arrived by then)that way I'll hopefully be on cd39.
My friend came round last night so we were up talking until after 1am, ds got me up really early and he's now watching Alvin and the Chipmunks for the second time because he likes to dance to the music, but it gives me a chance to catch up on mn .

Angel I will not test !! & don't try & tempt me you evil lady. Just got back from shopping trip after staring at tests in Boots but came back with some Clarins goodies instead - how's that for self control? Going to try to hold out until Wed. Glad to hear you are enjoying a little retail therapy.

Homeinthesun glad you have someone to confide in. Are you going to test in a few days too or hold out until AF fails to arrive?

early sorry you got BFN but fingers crossed AF stays away. It's not over until the wicked witch flies in !!

missie so sorry you got AF. I'm sure your emotions must be all over the place but take Angels advice & indulge yourself but only stuff that won't make you feel too crap afterwards.

I've just made some sweet potato soup as my friend (39) has just conceived #4 after eating loads of it. Apparently sweet potato is a natural clomid. Probably a load of bulls**t but it will make me feel better next month TTC if it hasn't worked this time.

Hello ladies... Hurrah! It's the weekend!!

I'm sat in Costa breaking my way out of yet another latte, yum!
After my shopping trip yesterday, I have decided that I font need the dress, rights or bathrobe rail (!! Ha!!) Isn't it amazing to see the zones we go into when we're shopping?! I kept the rest though ;o))

Fifi... Test! You know you wanna! Go on! Test! Ha ha... Sorry, couldn't help myself. Good luck for WEDNESDAY chick x

Missie... I'm sorry that AF arrived. But hey, cone and enjoy the coffee with me! The shopping helps too, especially after you realise that sh1t food doesn't! Hugs x

Bubble... How you feeling today? Is your dh better yet?

Hello everyone else to all x

No sign of AF but tested today and got BFN

MissieMoos, really sorry to hear your news.

Hi Fifiok Ds and I are doing ok, he's been sleeping alot recently which is unlike him but he's not showing signs that he's coming down with anything. I, on the other hand have been staying up late watching crap on tv because I hate going to bed on my own, quite sad really I should be used to it by now.
The only person around me that knows we're ttc is my friend next door, her dh is also away at the moment so she's coming round later. How are things for you, wishing you all the best.

Hi everyone..

Bubble i don't know. I am very tempted every day now - the test in the bathroom is beckoning, but there is really no point. A BFP doesn't mean you are home and dry at this early stage anyway... I might as well wait a few days, if not a week to see if AF arrives. I will see if any symptoms materialise over the next few days - at the moment I have very very mild cramps and i can cry quite easily but this could be AF arriving... If I'm honest, I have had the oddest taste in my mouth the last few mornings and I almost stacked it on Thursday morning cos I felt so dizzy and faint and maybe a bit nauseaus? - i had to hold onto the table to steady myself! I am also salivating like a dog! But these are all things that I could be imagining or it could be another CP - I would really rather not get the BFP and then have AF arrive. It is too much of a rollercoaster.

Sometimes I really think it is AF arriving but then the feeling goes away and nothing happens. Obviously, despite trying not to think about it I am scrutinising my every waking breath. But I am going to have to be patient and wait... While convincing myself the AF is on her way...

Thanks for all the babydust and goodvibes everyone . Good luck to all those people (posting or not posting) that are waiting waiting waiting .

Have been up for ages with a snuffly DS.

Just wanted to nip on here and wish you lots and lots and lots of luck for testing earlynite

Hey there!

AF started this afternoon . Guess I was right to be concerned about the lack of grottiness, so now I'm back on the ttc treadmill. Not sure what will happen now wrt my cycle so I'll just see what occurs.

Hello everyone - not been on since Tuesday so lots of catching up.
Angel so sorry, enjoy the coffee & maybe follow up with a wine & chocolate chaser. Will you be able to treat yourself to something at the weekend ?
aideesmum sorry for you too.
Hominthesun How you doing with DH away? Must be hard waiting without him around to talk to all the time. Hope you have some support nearby - if not we're all here for you.
Girl I feel guilty for moaning about my 2WW with what you have to put up with. Hang on in there.
Eeyore hope you get a good result on Monday.dancingqueen early good luck tomorrow ! Sending you all lots of blue lines _ (ok so you have to imagine they're blue).There are at least two each there plus a few extra for twins or anyone else testing
