Hiya,

I put August as its a little late for July!

I'm TTC number 4(!)

Due to test on the 15th August but don't think we have much chance this month as its only our first and DH has been ill for a few days and now I've got the bug, so not much romance happening!

So just wonderded if anyone is just starting TTC and wanted to join me?

Sorry Gruffalon menat to say good luck for you scan tomorrow, do let us know how it goes

lizandlulu · 13/01/2011 12:44

all sounds promising eaglewings

gruffalomama hope it all goes well with your scan, bet you are so excited. do you have twins in the family? dh kept teasing me this it was twins, but luckily it isnt! but its strange how all these things go through your head isnt it!

GruffaloMama · 13/01/2011 12:51

yeah - my maternal grandmother and grandfather both had a few sets of twins as siblings. (They were one of 13 and one of 14 respectively - good Irish stock...)

KLou111 · 13/01/2011 13:00

nice to hear from you Gruffalo and Eaglewings.

Fingers crossed for a BFP Eaglewings sounding promising!

Hope all goes well with your scan Gruffalo, I would love twins. We've got them both sides, but only one heartbeat on my scan that sono lady could see, however she did say may be too early to tell!! (Not me with the thrush BTW :) been lucky so far)

MadKatz · 13/01/2011 17:58

EWCM has arrived! Fingers crossed it might be our month!!

Good luck for a BFP Eaglewings

and for your scan Gruffalo

xx

KLou111 · 13/01/2011 18:02

Happy shagging MadKatz!! Get those bloody spermies swimming MadKatz's DP/DH!!!

lizandlulu · 13/01/2011 21:25

ok ok it is me with the bloody thrushGrin got some cream today but doesnt seem to be doing anything so far, might need more though, i only put a tiny tiny bit on as i dont particularily like using it (not that anyone ever does!)

yes madkatz getting doing it like you have never dont it beforeGrin

tell me to mind my own business, but do you wipe after the deed? for the first 4 months i waited 15 mins then wiped, after reading what other people did, but in the 5th month when we was sucessful, i left it in there and didnt wipe at all. i dont know if its just coincidence or what but i did it even though i hated the feeling of being so sloppy down there, but i got desperate!

just a thought?

GruffaloMama · 13/01/2011 22:50

Hi. Sorry for getting confused. Told you I was tired (and blonde)... too nervous to go to bed... off to eat ANOTHER choice biccie.

MadKatz · 14/01/2011 06:51

Liz I wait half an hour before I go to the loo and wipe, tend to just raise my hips slightly on a towel covered pillow and rest. Its quite nice as DH and I can have a good cuddle Smile

eaglewings · 14/01/2011 10:32

Liz I hope you are putting more cream on and improving.

Mad you are obviously better at forward planning than me, I have to wash the pillow after Blush Sometimes I am very lazy and just put pants on and go to sleep, but having had a UTI a couple of months back i do now go to the loo after half an hour or so.

I'm still feeling sick, its day 30 today, so if I've not got AF by the morning will be POAS. Swing from thinking I'll have a baby 'when I go to London in November' etc to thinking its another dud month Confused

KLou111 · 14/01/2011 12:11

LMAO Liz what you like!! Re the wiping thing, I just lay there for 10 minutes then ran to the loo with paper held between my legs, and pushed the rest out Grin and Blush

GruffaloMama · 14/01/2011 20:19

hi all - scan today went really well. Only one baby (hurray!) and good strong heartbeat etc. I've been moved back to 12+6 (instead of 13+2) but I knew that anyway as I knew when I ov'ed. V much relieved after the early bleeding I had.

Madkatz REALLY keeping my fingers crossed for you tomorrow morning.

lizandlulu · 14/01/2011 21:46

glad it all went well gruffalo, its lovely to see isnt it!

eaglewings if you are poas tomorrow morning let us know asap wont you!

MadKatz · 15/01/2011 06:57

glad it went ok gruffalo

eaglewings · 15/01/2011 10:41

Wonderful news Gruffalo, glad the scan went well and you saw a singleton (strange word!)

I got a BFN this morning, also spotted slightly yesterday, this could be the longest month ever :(

Yesterday I was in Costa and saw 3 babies under a month old, that was lovely. I was also unable to drink my coffee as I was feeling so sick... I wish I knew what my body was up to. Maybe its being 42

Oh well Confused

lizandlulu · 15/01/2011 21:20

Sad for you eaglewings i wish things were different for youSad Sad Sad

but things cant be so bad that you wasted costa coffee!!!!Shock only joking, i am the same, i used to have medio latte, but just cant face it now, i could drink coffee till it came out of my ears, but really cant stomach it nowSad

GruffaloMama · 15/01/2011 22:59

Eaglewings don't give up hope just yet. I got a BFN and spotted the first month that I was preg with this bean. Was convinced I wasn't preg and nearly threw the second test in the bin as the result was sooo faint. Thinking of you.

MadKatz · 16/01/2011 16:33

sorry about your BFN eaglewings

eaglewings · 17/01/2011 17:37

Thank you, sadly AF arrived yesterday afternoon 3 days late and is making up for lost time.

Oh well, it meant I could have a drink and I knew what was happening.

On to the next cycle....

Not wanting to be greedy or anything but twins would be good, there is an 8 year gap already so it would be nice to have 2 to be friends and I don't think I could go through all this again if I managed to conceive

GruffaloMama · 18/01/2011 07:42

Oh sorry Eaglewings. Big hugs.

MadKatz · 18/01/2011 08:49

sorry eaglewings x

Iwish · 18/01/2011 19:15

Liz, klou and gruffalo. Hope you are ok and have plenty of symptoms.

MadKatz · 19/01/2011 18:14

Hi Iwish how are you?

Yes, I've ov'd and waiting now.

Iwish · 19/01/2011 18:43

Hi madkatz yeh I'm good thanks. Think I ov'd 3 days ago (unless fertility friend changes it's mind). What dpo are you now then?
:)

MadKatz · 20/01/2011 07:01
