This is the place to be for all those wanting to TTC after miscarriage, or have plans on TTC in the relatively near future. This thread is full of support from people who have been there and no how you are feeling so jump on board and share the Wine and chocolate (or water and celery for those of you off alcohol and caffeine Wink)

The thread moves fast so bob in and out as you please. Ask any questions that have been niggling you or that you are concerned about, perhaps someone here has experienced the same in the past.

If you want to join the stats, just add yourself to the list:

WTTC = waiting to TTC
UCL = usual cycle length

Good luck to all - here's hoping for lots of healthy, sticky BFPs by the end of the thread

This is the old thread ref:

ooh blackkat never been pm'd before sounds rude. Grin i just got childishly excited about it as well. and that's just greedy you know you can't have your cake and eat it as well, only 1 list.

collie if i'd been thinking i'd probably have realised what you meant, i just get worried with suggesing to many changes to "the list" that i'll upset people, if you know what i mean. Thankyou but it's not just me, you lot do one hell of a lot as well. even now you listen to my being stupid when you guys have got so much on your plates as well. i meant what i said last week, you are like family to me, i'm on here more than facebook, infact i hardly ever post on fb anymore.

olis i'm keeping fx for you hon, how are you managing to stay strong till friday??

mel i liked the one about the broken door, she went and posted it on dadsnet as well was quite funny reading the blokes perspective.

chloe how's the ds? is his bump better?

hope everyone else is ok. sorry if i missed anyone. i left my bath running too long and no doubt i'll flood the bathroom when i get in now. (and it's probably cold. will talk when i get out.

Iggly · 02/03/2011 19:59

Have a nice bath cep! Grin hope you didn't flood the place.

MumTumWanted · 02/03/2011 20:18

Hey to all, yet again i cant keep up whilst covert mning..... but he indoors has a friend round to play he he so i can tap away andlurk without too much fuss.

collie glad you feel you are getting there after last week

blackkat this moving up the list thing i agree just realised im 5 from the top ... little wonder i keep peeing on a stick !

chloe the fish slapping is defo warranted ( should i at this point admit to having tested this morning too??? was a BFN though so not pleased...

cep im Envy ive not been pmd Grin

oils sore boobs Grin fx for you

as for me well.... i have creamy cm now is this a good thing??? boobs not sore ( except from where i keep poking them to check....) white pants still very much white (TMI??) my temps have been going up but for the life of mne i cant work out how to share my chart with you all on ff ... but id love some thoughts on it... oh and i did have rather a saucy dream last night which i got last time i was heavily pregnant....

think i need a Wine ( and hoping that internet cheapy pg dipsticks turn up in the post tomorrow as ive now run out, as a result of testing every other day since DPO 6 !!) Blush

cep · 02/03/2011 20:30

iggly only when i got out i forgot. Confused until it splashed over the side a little ooops.

mumtum chart sharing on ff

  1. go to my home page
  2. home page settings 3)go down page till it shows published charts, select the chart you want to show, and press add chart.
  3. should take you back up the page, where it shows the http: stuff highlight all that then copy paste on here with the on either side and should provide proper link......hopefully. i didn't get a bfp until cd 26.
    speaking of which cb digi scared the life out of me tonight, bloody thing, took 1 min to show pg but took the rest of the 3 mins to show how far along. i was thinking omg it's gonna change it's mind and apologise or something. eventually showed 2-3 so yay up to the next stage. ah i'll try and send a pm, i've never done it before.
cep · 02/03/2011 20:35

ok mumtum i tried did you get one???

MumTumWanted · 02/03/2011 20:40

www.fertilityfriend.com/home/33b8dc

thanks for the info cep ive tried... fx its worked...

loving the scared emoticon and all chuffed that i might get a PM Grin

cep · 02/03/2011 20:44

did you get it??? chart looks good, is good temp is still going up see what happens in a few days.

MumTumWanted · 02/03/2011 20:48

pm worked thank you !

im so impatient with this 2ww....Glad the temps look good to someone i have no idea what they are meant to be doing but i am religliously taking my temp in the hope that FF will magically tell me updiffed without even poas Blush Grin

im turning into a woman possessed to think when i had decided to TTC again id thught i would be calm and chilled about it all...Blush

cep · 02/03/2011 20:48

cor you could get carried away doing that. Grin

cep · 02/03/2011 20:50

if your new to ff it takes 18 dpo of high temps to tell you if your pg. a bit pointless by my pov as by then af should have started and you'd have guessed anyway. fx it stays up.

olismum23 · 02/03/2011 20:52

Im not calm or chilled as much i am trying too know its prob way too early but i have given in and sent DH out for more PG tests.............GOD I AM GOING MAD!!!Grin

MumTumWanted · 02/03/2011 20:55

Grin at thought of oils DH dashing to the tesco metro to grab the last clearblue off the shelf .... wondering if mine would do the same... prob not as his friend is here (who doesnt know we are TTC!!)

cep · 02/03/2011 20:55

bless that he wet oli my dh would have told me where to go. fx for you.

cep · 02/03/2011 20:56

*went not wet Blush

MumTumWanted · 02/03/2011 20:59

oops Blush cep quite right went not wet ... must have cm on the brain !

ff not very helpful then really silly people dont they realise they have mad obsessed crazy interested ladies on the ir site that have to KNOW NOW !!! Grin..

olismum23 · 02/03/2011 21:01

Aww i used the puppy dog eyes although i do think i am going mad it has only been just over 3 weeks since i started to m/c have tested loads but i really do feel pregnant.........honestly going mad!!!! Blush

olismum23 · 02/03/2011 21:03

LOL MumTumWanted

meliesmummy · 02/03/2011 21:07

Oooohhhh im jealous, never had a pm!

olis let us know, fx! I sent my dh out tests once when I got a v faint positive (chem pg), it was a Sunday evening and I'd specified cb digital or fr, tesco metro only had their own brand so bless him I think he checked every shop in Swansea! (unsuccessfully)

cep · 02/03/2011 21:08

Grin mumtum i think when you have a couple of cycles on there so you and it knows your normal cycle pattern then it's quicker, it's because it's your first cycle on there. mine started counting down (i put cm details in a few days ahead so it would show the dates, i hated not having the full cycles dates on there and it started couting down the extra 5 days.)

oli remind me, sorry if you've already answered this i can't remember, did you test and have a -ve?? post mc?

cep · 02/03/2011 21:14

ok sent you one as well mel Grin

mousebacon · 02/03/2011 21:15

Hi ladies, just popping in to say the service went as well as could be expected and am ready to go for fanjo cam tomorrow.

olismum23 · 02/03/2011 21:20

I got a negative very quickly, i only bled for five days and got a negative the day my bleeding stopped but my Hcg was low only ever reached 786 and bless the wee soul she even managed to get a strong heartbeat with that little hormone. I had a scan 4 days before my m/c started and she was there beating away 5.5 weeks oh well hoping if i do get preg again it sticks :(

Collie2 · 02/03/2011 21:22

Ohhhh I'm gone for a couple of hours and it gets interesting!!!!!

cep I think this thread is a god send, and everyone on it is so lovely. I know what you mean about fb I've barely been on since my mc (apart from when I am torchering myself and stalking my pg neighbour) Grin i much prefer talking to you lovely ladies! Grin

meliesmummy · 02/03/2011 21:27

Thanks cep! My dh thinks I'm a complete nut for getting excited over that!

mouse good luck for tomorrow x

This thread has been fab, I've never joined anything like this before, I only joined fb in Jan, but so glad I did, thank you all x (it would have been nice to get to 'meet' you all in happier circumstances tho!

Ninunina · 02/03/2011 21:38

Blackkat & Chloe I'm sorry you've both had such a rough time TTC before mc. I'm keeping my Fx that it will be quicker and more successful this time round. It is a lucky thread after all Wink

Vegas welcome- looks like you're already being well taken care of. These ladies are fantastic support. It helps to know there are so many people going through similar things.

Collie thanks for the asprin link. I went out and bought some baby asprin over the weekend, but I'm not too happy taking it, so I won't take it again after reading that article.

Oli its getting exciting. Let us know as soon as you take that test (but maybe wait for FMU)

Have you noticed how many similar lettered nicknames we have on this thread. Collie, Chloe, Cep, Lily, Lili....I'm glad I didn't put my actual nickname on this, since it would be another Lily- now that would be confusing Smile
