Hi ladies

Hope its OK for me to join the thread. Have been lurking for a while but not posted as not "officially" TTC. I've been incredibly broody for years but DP wants to wait. However we had a slight "accident" a couple of weeks ago and now I'm sympton spotting like crazy.

Stats are
(Sort of!)TTC#1 UCL 32 CD36

Have been really naughty and been testing since about CD28 but all BFN. I'm sure AF will turn up eventually - can't think I'd be lucky enough to get pregnant on the first go!

Good luck to everyone else this month

Go littlesilver! I know ladies that have only ever had faint lines (and as I keep saying it's almost impossible to get a "false" positive) so I would say congratulations are in order...

Kaylo - TWINS!! Imagine it...

Ant - thanks for your ongoing good wishes. I'm actually feeling fine at the moment (apart from sore boobs the size of small continents) and had my first "proper" appointment at the doctor this morning! DP and I are deperately trying not to get our hopes up but it's hard...

How is everyone else doing?

Hello everyone,

Congrats Little Silver! It seems like this has been a good week for this thread!! Here is hoping for more of the same next month...

I've got my 5 month preggers friend coming over for pizze and chick flicks tonight (haven't told DH yet.. ) so I can quiz her on her pg until she is bored senseless.

Antdamm · 20/11/2009 09:38

Kaylo!!!!!!!! So sorry I missed your announcement. Congrats!!

My internet is still playing up.

Little Silver - Like Kaylo says, a line is a line! Congrats!!

Jumble - I still have my fingers crossed for you. I hope everything goes well on the 24th and you get the news you want

Welcome - MrsZac!

As for me. Last month I had a period that lasted a few days exactly two weeks after my 'real' period - And now I think I have the same again. Am considering going to the doctors about it, but was thinking of waiting a bit to see if the trend continues next month. As usual, I have no idea what is going on...
I read somewhere about ovulation bleeding - but not really wanting to google it. Anyone heard of this??

How is everyone else today?

KayloFireworks · 19/11/2009 21:55

Thanks everyone - Still slightly reeling today about it all cos technically I tested so early that a positive result shouldn't have even registered - so now I'm paranoid thinking..... dun dun duuuuuh.....twins?
A already feeling very very sick, and exhausted to the point of needing pro plus just to get through my working day.

But hey ho...am still smiling ear to ear

CONGRATS to Little Silver - a line is a line hun - test again in couple of days if you want reassurance - I'm still peeing on sticks Just to make sure you know?

Whitty Any news?

Hope everyone is smiling and well xxxx

LittleSilver · 19/11/2009 20:39

Well, don't really want to write BFP, more of a very faint +ive this morning. Now weebling about doing another; don't want to shatter hopes IYSWIM?

jumblequeen · 19/11/2009 20:15

mrsZaC - It took my body a month to get back to normal after coming off the pill. On the other hand you might be the most fertile woman in the world and it'll all happen for you instantly!

legallyblond · 19/11/2009 14:02

Fingers crossed mrsZaC... any pre-af symptoms? Here's hoping she doesn't show up!

mrsZaC · 19/11/2009 13:14

oops ment BFN not BPN, man this stuff is confusing!

mrsZaC · 19/11/2009 13:14

thanks

stats... TTC#1 cycle 1 UCL? CD29

Tested BPN this morning, but AF hasn't arrived.... only came off the pill a month ago so things probably haven't quite slotted into place...

how are all you ladies doing? see there are a few congrats in order!! fab

jumblequeen · 19/11/2009 12:31

Aw thanks sparechange x x

mrsZaC - of course! All welcome...

mrsZaC · 19/11/2009 12:02

hey ladies, can I hop on?

sparechange · 19/11/2009 11:54

Keeping my fingers crossed for you jumble
xx

jumblequeen · 19/11/2009 11:25

Hello All,

First and foremost - Kaylo - congratulations! I'm so pleased for you. And whitty I can't believe you haven't POAS yet! You have more restraint than me, lady...

Sorry to hear AF got some of you this month. But never fear, we will all get a BFP... nobody gets left behind on this thread!

No more news from me I'm afraid. I haven't had any more one-sided pain or spotting so I'm trying to stay positive without investing too much. I have another scan on the 24th and fingers crossed they'll be able to see where the pregnancy is although it's still very early days....

legallyblond · 19/11/2009 09:41

Whitty... TEST!! So exciting!

I googled the Deanna's thing.. I think I will go for a relaxed approach to begin with, but the main thing from the whole sperm mets egg thing seems to be: sex every other day in the immediate run up to ovulation, then every day when you ovulate, with not too big gaps between sex at other times... I figure I can kinda do that with out testing for ovulation as I can guess from how my body feels/discharge looks etc etc (TMI, I know!) when I ovulate within a day or so... well, I'll try that and then get more precise/obsessional(!) if it doesn't work!

Kaylo... how are you feeling?!

whittywantababy6 · 18/11/2009 12:50

Hey ladies here is an update...I'm officially 7 days late...and I'm still trying to hold out silly I know but I'm nervous might wait til the weekend. kaylo Im so happy for you...and ladies I wish us all the best of luck

Bubblebell1 · 18/11/2009 10:44

spare sorry the witch got u... good luck with this month.

sparechange · 18/11/2009 10:13

SCREAM Kaylo!
That is such fantastic news. You must be over the moon!

In other news, the witch got me last night. I was this close to doing another hpt, but DH was out, so I thought I'd wait until the morning. Went to the loo and there it was.
Onwards and upwards though. I've already marked in my ov dates for Dec and told DH to clear his diary for those days as he has a job to do...

Bubblebell1 · 18/11/2009 09:35

legally if you google 'sperm meets egg plan' or 'deannas plan' it explains everything. it is just a plan that can help you concieve... not everyones cuppa t tho... is a bit full on and some ppl prefer the more relaxed approach.

legallyblond · 18/11/2009 08:58

kaylo - CONGRATULATIONS! So happy... I am crossing everything for the next three months!

jumble - it all sounds so confusing and scary..... How are they sure its not normal? Maybe, just maybe..?

bubble - I am so dense and new to this... what is the "deannas" plan/approach to ttc?

I went to the doctors yesterday to discuss ttc - he basically said he didn't need to test anything in advance of me actually being pregant. He said my weight was just right (bmi 22) and we talked through my cycles... he said that, as everything seems to run like clockwork at the moment, best to just try for a few months and see what happens. He said to take folic acid and, if I am actively ttc and suspect I may be pg, not to drink alcohol. but other than that, he just said go ahead!

Have a good day everyone, x

Bubblebell1 · 18/11/2009 07:57

Antdamm · 16/11/2009 14:16

My family tree is getting on well - have gone back really far. I have been at it since about March I reckon. I love doing it. Have been doing DPs family tree also - have got really far with that and his side i like better because some of his people grew up in the same city as I used to live in and I recognise places they lived,got married etc. We are giving his mum her family tree in a book thing for Xmas, which she will love.

I do love Xmas shopping, but not in this weather!! I have done a lot online this year, so that I can get it delivered to Scotland to save me dragging it back over there when we go at Xmas.

seanybosmummysfedupwaiting · 16/11/2009 13:35
