thanks 2 af jumpin of the febuary bus and hopping on to the march bus

Sorry to hear that AF got you, Impatient, but glad to see you're still on this bus.

Totallyfloaty, that absolutely sucks! SWI on Sunday followed by ov on Tuesday puts you in the running, though. Has he given any reasons for changing his mind? Perhaps he's over-thinking it? So sorry, you must be feeling miserable and absolutely furious. I hope you're able to have a good talk about it when he gets back from his trip.

Rockbird, I thought you were POAS on Friday???

Well I had another BFN this morning, 3 days early (I know, I know!) but I think a pg test would pick it up this early as it's an internet cheapie 10miu test. And I absolutely don't feel pg at all.

Morning,

Bloody, Boody DH has changed his mind again i want to beat him to death with a blunt spoon
Im ovulating today and we only had SWI on Sunday morning.
Im never going to get pregnant at this rate.He left the flippin country again too...hows that for contraception!
Sorry for my rant. Congrats Delilah on your Bfp.Pleased that some positives are appearing here now

I know what you mean re: support, my family all live in different countries!
I also know what you mean about needing a challenge and something to do for yourself. I think it will be a long time before i can do anything like that, and so if i'm having 3, i should get on with it, and then get a little bit of my own life/ challenges/ career back when the last one goes to school!

There are plenty of pro's & con's for every age gap. Atleast you will have plenty of quality time with your #3 and your DD's will adore DC3!

Might take your advice mad
So...
ttc #3 cycle 1 ucl 28 (?) cd 7

Aw bless - that is comforting to know that my DH isnt the only one. Like you I really want him to show lots of enthusiasm this time but I think I will just have to put up with the usual apathy!! We have waited this long because I found having two so close together very hard work especially as DH also works long hours so I did a lot on my own and my family are a long way away so I had very little support. I have been wanting another baby for some time and might have started trying last year but then I got a place in the London Marathon and went for that instead. At the time I sort of said is was something for me to do myself and the children were old enough for me to train while they were at school and nursery. I am so glad I did it as that is my personal achievement but as soon as it was over my mind turned to baby this and baby that!!

If you want to go for it now, go for it. Tbh most of my friends with three dc all say that the change from 2 to 3 is not that huge compared to 1 to 2. If it feels right, it feels right, and who knows how long it might take, not be be negative but it could take 6months or so. I think your gaps will be fine, I worry about having a big gap for a third now as my dd's are so close as friends. I wish you all the best and hope that you can hop on board the bus soon xx

mad you have made my day! This sounds exactly like my DH! We wouldn't have even had #1 either... infact, we wouldn't have even been engaged/married.. - i have to 'suggest' everything!
Up until now, that has been fine (i have managed really well on my own 7 days a week, as he is a workaholic!).. but there are SO many reasons, why this time, (since it will be our last), i just want him to show some enthusiasm! And i need him to be in on it, because i ended up having a c-sec last time, and am worried if this happens again, he will actually have to help/ take time off/ do a night feed here or there!
Mine are only 3 next week & 17 months.. i don't understand how i could feel like this - it must be because everyone around me is pregnant / has a newborn.
My only concern, is, should i wait until DS1 goes to school & DD1 preschool, so i can have some time with just #3. But i don't think i can wait that long.
Like you said, my DH knows that we aren't using contraception!
Sorry for turning the bus into should i go fo #3
Still dreaming of hopping on!

Hi sillybillymummy my DH is exactly the same he thinks life is easier now (our youngest dd will be 4 in Sept and her sister is 5). And tbh if I left it to him to make a decision then we would probably still be trying for no 1!! He's always known I want three children and I tried to have the grown up conversation with him about now is the time before I get to old and he always answered "do we have to talk about this now?" which is so him! He didn't say a def no, so I took the decision, but then he is intelligent enough to know that sex minus contraception might equal a baby. He drives me nuts but then he has always been like this, never really coming out and committing verbally to anything much!!! I do know that he will be over the moon if we have another, especially if its a boy , but I just can't get him to say it

Mad sorry i only just read your latest one. It sounds like you are! All of that cannot be in your head!
Please can you tell me the ages of you 2DC are? Hopefully, then i won't feel quite so insane!

Prinpo I have never been SO SO broody or 'yearned' this much... but maybe thats because i haven't had to beg DH before, its just happened so quickly. Also maybe its because i know how much happy happy amazing-ness a baby brings to our house/lives!

Mad & Prinpo It will be our #3 too! I think this seems to be the scariest decision yet!

Mad How casual is your DH?

Prinpo I just said to him, someone suggests i get you drunk, and he said.. ok, but only after i've watched the football?! (which he knows irritates me.. because he hasn't really decided!)
So Mad i guess what i'm asking is... is your DH this casual? Mine just thinks everything is just getting really nice and we're starting to really enjoy our 2DC, and he doesn't want to ruin it all..

Delilah Congratulations! Hang around, you have much more right to be on this bus than me! I am more hanging on to the bumper, wishing i could get on..

lol Rockbird I know what you have been up to (sorry about your BFN) Friday's not that far away so we must resist!

Hi Prinpo oooh yes I am so yearning for number 3. Our first two were really close so I felt rather busy for quite a while, but now I am so so ready for another

You wanted a list of symptoms - here goes (I will look such a fool if this is all in my mind !!)

Metallic taste, cramps, sore boobs, grumpiness, tiredness, thirstiness, weeing lots, dry mouth, breathlessness, feeling slightly fluey, nausea, no desire to drink wine and dizziness. And a new one today is bloatedness. Not bad for someone determined not to symptom spot, I think I need help

I'm keeping everything crossed that we get a few more BFPs from this thread.

Only 4 more sleeps mad Prinpo and Rockbird, you can do it!

I've been having lots of fun online trying to calculate my EDD. Looks like 28/2/11 or 1/3/11.
Too scared to start a thread in Ante-natal, so I am going to hang round here for a bit long if that's OK.

I'm POAS on Friday as well. I'll slap you if I see you sneaking in an early one

Hello Mad, we're trying for number 3 too. Do you find yourself yearning for this one just as much as for the others?

What symptoms do you have? I'm imagining every symptom under the sun... excuse me while I go and eat some coal and then faint....

Hello all, I have been lurking for a while but thought I really ought to hop aboard. This is the first month of casually ttc no 3 (she says trying to convince herself, DH is certainly more casual than me!) I was determined not to symptom spot but I have a huge list which is probably all in my head. So my stats are ttc 3 cycle 1 UCL 27-28 CD 24.

Its so lovely to see some BFP on here so congrats to BUnderBonnet and Delilahbelle

Please help me not to POAS til Friday

ah, go on then B just tell me where to post

Keeping everything crossed for you Prinpo

Congrats Delilah! Shall we start the graduates thread? I'm assuming there isn't one already....

delilah, wahaaaaaaaaaaaay! Fantastic news. This bus has officially moved off the country lanes and is speeding down the motorway. Did you tell anyone at work? It's such hard news to keep to yourself .

Welcome, mylittlebubble. Sorry to hear about your mc. Hope you have a happier result very soon.

OK, desperate symptom spotting: been feeling very pregnant this month, driving erratically and just a bit vacant. Also, had some stomach aches (way too early for AF) and heartburn. Realised this morning that the pollen is very high so that could explain most if not all of the symptoms. Perhaps I'll wallow in the fantasy of being pregnant for a few more days and then start getting realistic to prepare myself for AF arriving .

ImpatientHove

Hot flushes after OV until CD23 ish (thought I was menopausal)
Spotting and cramps around CD22 (thought AF was arriving early)
V dry mouth/thirsty/weeing like a racehorse since CD28

That's it for symptoms... I honestly thought this month was a bust. I even spent £50 on a crate of wine from Virgin wine club - guess DH will be drinking that alone.

Here's hoping a load more get that BFP - anyone due to test soon?

Congratulations BUnderTheBonnet and delilah any very noticeable symptoms???

I have been quietly lurking for most of this month - trying not to obsess - yeah right! Anyway, not looking good for me this month. Didn't get a positive OPK (again) and am now on 29 and no af. have tested to day, BFN

Just wanting af to hurry up now so can try again next month. It was so easy with my dd! First month... but I guess I am 6 years older now and I was no spring chicken when I had dd!

PS Welcome to the bus mylittlebubble, plenty of room!

Congratulations delilahbelle

Still no news on OV here (drumming fingers emoticon)

Hi Girls

Can I join the bus too
I didn't want to add myself on the list as don't want to mess it up! My stats are:

TTC #2 cyc 1 UCL 31 CD 12

We fell pregnant quickly in Feb but unfortunatly miss-carrried so hoping we fall pregnant again quickly with a happier ending!

Congrats to the BFP's

Congrats Delilahbelle!!! looks like things are looking up on the bus!!!Yipeeee, 2 BFP already!!!.

Don't think I'm going to catch this bus this month though...still no AF after last months MC...and no positive preg tests...have no idea now where I am cycle wise???.

Hoping for some more BFP on here! gives me hope x
