Thanks girls! im keepin my fingers crossed but like i said i think AF is lurking.

Kaylo · 29/07/2009 19:24

whitty I have got my fingers crossed for you and bubble - hoping that you both graduate to 'ante-natal' soon. (not that i wanna get rid of you tho!)

seanybosmummy · 29/07/2009 16:50

whittywantababy6 · 29/07/2009 13:02

Hey ladies were sounding a little more positive these days...bubble I knew you would ovulate and sore boobs and tired are a symptom...

My BDathon was great preseed is actually nice as for symptoms I just sleep and my boobs hurt but I'm like bubble Im not going to get my hopes up and be down.

kaylo 3 weeks and 1 day will go by quick as we all know...just relax dont stress yourself...

seany how are you dear

Im excited for everyone hope everyone is well these days.

Kisses lol

Kaylo · 29/07/2009 09:55

just worked it out....it's 3 weeks and 1 day!!! Even sooner than I thought as we're starting on 20th Aug a few days before ovulation to get best first chance at it!!!!

I'm even more excited now - might pop tp mothercare and pick up a catalogue to celebrate
or maybe I'll go to work and act normal so people at work don't guess I'm TTC soon. Bah - thats not as much fun tho is it really????

BUBBLE I'm soooooo soooooo pleased and excited and nervous for you! I so hope this is your month as you've really been through it TTC this time.
When are you testing hun? I'm gonna do my BFP chanty dance for you

Whitty.....any symptoms??

Love and hugs to all but I'm gonna have to go now methinks or managers at work will be upset like I care really when theres just 3 weeks and 1 day left before I can start (hopefully) looking forward to maternity leave

Bubblebell1 · 29/07/2009 09:22

no seany not normally. i am nervous and excited and trying to control myself so i dont set myself up for a huge fall

seanybosmummy · 29/07/2009 09:16

brilliant bubble im sooooooooooo happy for you hun!!!!!! Symptoms sound good -do you usually get sore boobs?

Welcome nattie and good luck! Good for you being so organised! Wish i could take a leaf out of your book

whitty that is great news-hope you got lucky on your last bdathon

How is everyone else doing? Is it 3 weeks 6 days now kaylo?

OP posts:
Bubblebell1 · 29/07/2009 08:41

morning girls!

how is everyone?

nat i hope you enjoyed your bareback ride

whitty i hope you struck it lucky

WELL..... the results are in!!!

I did ovulate!!!! my progesterone level was 50!!! so i guess i will be hanging around for another few days to see if i got lucky this month!

if im honest i think af is lurking. i have really sore boobs and am dog tired. bit emotional too i think i will go get a preg test to put me out of my misery!

nattiecake · 28/07/2009 18:22

oops, SOME special underwear!

nattiecake · 28/07/2009 18:21

lol, i have no choice, there is no way i can afford min repayments and a baby, esp once im off on maternity!! it either has to be sorted now or i can fake my own death and my children can be born in cuba......

hmm...........

pill ends tomorrow, so tonight i celebrate my last bareback ride for 3 months... i feel so special underwear is in order

Kaylo · 28/07/2009 09:21

whitty thats fantastic news....I hope it worked for you - will be waiting with baited breath for an update...

April I get mine from eBay - they look flimsy but work fine. You need a medal for still dancing when feel poop.

bubble am hoping good news comes to you today

4 weeks left for me before TTC!!! I'm sooooo excited!!!

April80 · 28/07/2009 08:54

Hi everyone!!

Rtuff Congratulations!!!!! What fab news!

Joy Lovely to hear about your scan

Nattie Welcome! Organised or what!! Dont remind me about credit cards!!

Whitty Enjoy your wedding planning! I got married this June just gone, enjoy every minute it goes so fast!

Hi and good luck everyone else, sorry running out of time as DS is running wild!!!

My quick update:
BDathon going well, have come out with a cold so not really up for it but still dancing! No idea when I ov but it must be this week?! CD 13. May have to get some ov sticks if no BFP this month! Would ebay be the best place for them?

xx

Bubblebell1 · 27/07/2009 12:45

whittywantababy6 · 27/07/2009 12:44

Ok ladies hey....nattie welcome wish I was that organized but Im going to start your my new inspiration....anywho ladies update on me last nite after I posted I convinced my dear love to stop being a scaredy wuss and ttc...

well he went for it and I used the preseed we caught ovulation just in time my actual ovulation date is tomorrow so we shall see if the preseed works because I sure enough was not taking my temperature

Kaylo · 26/07/2009 22:13

hiya - welcome to the thread nattie - you do certainly sound organised - best I could do was look into consolidation for my credit cards or balance t/f - got a great deal with abbey who's offering 0% so went with them!! Happy days.

whitty I'm sorry ur having to wait until Dec before TTC - at least you've got your wedding plans to plunge yourself into! Exciting times that we live in these days!
Hope to still see u on here from time to time - will be looking for u,

Just cooking enchiladas - dh and me both fancied a little snack and this was the only thing we wanted - bloody messy to make tho!

xxx

nattiecake · 26/07/2009 20:36

hello, im new!! can i join in?

im not ttc yet, my last pill is this week and then we start the adventure. well kind of, i want to be very careful and very well planned so i'm gonna wait the full recommended three months before actually starting to try... in that time i'm gonna carry on losing weight and getting healthy, start on the folic acid and pay off my credit cards

im sure my family will be supportive and all, but i want them to see i have fully thought everything through and whatever...

whittywantababy6 · 26/07/2009 15:52

seanybosmummy · 26/07/2009 15:15

oh dear don't know what happened there,seem to have pressed a few buttons twice oops

OP posts:
seanybosmummy · 26/07/2009 15:10

Oh bubble i am hoping and praying that this is your month,i will miss you if you go but i completely understand your decision. Thank you for that info,i was completely unaware that you can get a +ve opk and not ov- i did get a very faint +ve this morning so thats my bubble well and truly burst

kaylo i knew it!!!! poor you, hhorrible dh making you get up with the kkids!!! Hope you perk up soon and manage to gget some sneaky naps

OP posts:
Kaylo · 26/07/2009 09:28

Seany - Thats exactly what I'm doing!!! In my diary I've written how many days weeks/days until the 20th Aug!! 3 weeks and 4 days!!!! Oh and the managers don't car a hoot about me @ work - they're currently trying to discipline me for taking so much time off work and trying to guilt-trip me because it's been dead busy and I could helped my team/colleagues by answering some calls.....fed of them all to be quite honest, can see me melting down before their eyes again - probably after a negative pg test in a month or so... bugger em!

oh bubble - I really really hope this cycle is the one for you I honestly do. It's good that you've made a decision and I can understand why - all the same you will be missed if you have to leave!! Hoping good news comes your way soon hun - whatever happens, take care!

Ant A break has been the magic solution for quite a few people on here so maybe it's the way forward - you too bubble! Fingers crossed for positive results from all - and I don't mean on the OPK's!!!

I went out last night for my friends hen night - to a casino in Leeds - it was sooooo fab! Couldn't drink tho as was driving so it was j2o's for me - good practice I guess Such an amazing night but the men there were a bit OTT!! And more than a little sleazy. Anyway, I didn't get in til half 3 and have been up since half 7 cos DH refused to let me sleep in so I had to get up with kids. I'm sooo sleepy - it's gonna be a playhouse disney day today methinks, easy entertainment just for today

Gonna go now as I have a headache from tiredness and laptop screen not helping!
seeya later everyone

bubble Hope tomorrow goes well for you - will you come back to tell us? Good Luck hun

Bubblebell1 · 25/07/2009 11:15

Hi all...

Congratulations rtuff thats brilliant

so so pleased for you..

seany just wanted to say that opks are not the way to find out if your ovualting. they detect a LH surge and u dont always ovulate after 1.

see if you can find attilla. she will explain it properly... she was the 1 who explained to me that opks are useless to ppl with irregular cycles.

like last month... i got a + opk but the blood test confirmed i didnt ovualte.. it may cause more heartache

its day 20 and have had a funny pain down on my left side. not holding out much hope, got my day 21 test on day 22 (monday) so will know by wed wether the 100 mg of clomid worked..

i do have some news tho.

Im leaving after this cycle... i cant be bothered with the emotional rollercoaster that is TTC. but i will be thinking of you all and wishing you the best of luck in getting pregnant and being pregnant.

I have 2 gorgeous boys and ive decided if this month doesnt work then im gonna just stick with what ive got

seanybosmummy · 25/07/2009 08:28

morning everyone

Welcome to newbies-love your name broody

rtuff i honestly am so pleased for you. I am feeling very hopeful as i am on cycle 15, and your good news, along with joys lovely update on her scan, has given me some hope, so thanks girls

kaylo you'd think your managers would give you a break seeing as your only back. Numpties or what grrr
Glad your first week went ok though and hope next week is better.
I have visions of you sitting with a little calander and x-ing off the days til you start ttc with a big red marker . Countdown with kaylo

As for the clomid, i am trying opks this month and then i will go back to doc and ask for some if they show i have def not ov'd.

joy as i said above your last post was lovely. Im sure you are both over the moon, and i am so happy to hear that everything went well for you.

bubble how are you hun?

ant im sorry i left you out yesterday-i hope your break does you good xx

trying sorry af arrived,fingers crossed for next month

april enjoy your bdathon-ours commenced yest so we will both be busy over the next weeks

whitty how are you doing? Did you go to see HP?

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend

OP posts:
Kaylo · 24/07/2009 23:53

Hi everyone - welcome to all the newbies.

I can't believe how long it's been since I last posted!!

Massive Congrats RTuff Joy That was a very inspiring post - feel like I'm raring to go now - just a few more weeks then it's BD'ing R Us!! Decided to bring TTC forward so it co-incides nicely with the very important part of my cycle.

Broody I will definitely be joining you with the TTC obsession once I get started - I'm obsessed already to about starting TTC!!!

Seany Would your doc prescribe clomid to you to help your ovulation? Or have you had that (sorry - head a shed at the mo with stress from work grrrrr)

April good luck with BD'athon - you'll be testing when I'll be starting

Whitty Hope the crying fairy has left and the smile has returned Did you enjoy the movie??

Trying Has AF arrived? Heres hoping she takes nice long break (for everyone else as well ) Being huge and pregnant is no fun whatsoever!!! I always get massive when I'm preggers and it's bloody uncomfortable enough! (but would still welcome it with open arms really)

Thats it from me anyhow - first week back at work went well-ish. Not hitting my targets so managers are ganging up on me! Roll on maternity leave

xxxxxxx

Take care everyone - wishing you all a happy weekend.

xxxxxxx
