Definitely not too early! Throw cake and learn amazing facts about semen and mucus on the 2nd December bus!

[spidookly]

I started another bus! I can't believe we got full so soon :o

From the last thread:
"He has said - 'no gym, no sex' - that'll do it!"

:o

OMG I love your DH, he sounds hilarious :)

:( micky I agree just letting her know you are there if she needs you you will be there will be enough.

If you are pg this month you don't have to tell her, when the time comes to let her know it will hurt a bit but she will still be pleased for you. :)

Her phone is switched off so sent her a text.

Wrote 'Tried to call but obviously your phone is off. XXX(DH) haas just told me your sad news. Really hope you and xxxx are as ok as can be. I am so sorry. Thoughts are with you. If there is anything I cn do please let me know xxx'

I think that is perfect. xxx

Don't know what happened but she had a 6 hour flight on Tuesday.. maybe tht triggered it

That text is lovely Micky.

At least I told her last month we were going to TTc and she was really excited about it, gave me some pregnncy tests nd folic acid. so ıt wouldn't be a shock to her but still would feel like I am kicking her when she was down :(

You aren't, she knows you are ttc and that we don't really have as much control as we think we do over getting pg.

If the tables were turned you wouldn't want her to feel guilty, not enjoy the pg or be different around you.

when we were at school why didn't they tell us being a grown up was so complicated.

Micky that is so sad :( that poor, poor woman.

Your text was perfect.

Nell I know what you mean about a "battle" between AF and pregnancy, but I don't think it works like that. You just get cramps at the start of pregnancy that feel like AF pains.

I think you're just pregnant :)

Let us know when we're allowed to be excited :o

(congratulations)

She would of been 19 weeks now I've worked it out. So she must of needed an operation at that point I imagine. Hope she wouldn't have had to give birth to the baby.. or maybe seeing the baby would give her more comfort, I don't know.

Welcome Dolly and treacle.
Sounds promising Nell.
Sorry you about your gran Molly and that you so stressed. Glad she doing better though. Here have a and a chocolate brownie, hope you a little less stressed.
Poppy- heightened sense of smell is a good sign. I had it with all mine. Infact you have just reminded me in all my pregnancies (5) the first sign was that I couldnt stand the smell of black bin bags and they would make me wretch. Note to self forget ebay cheapie tests and stock up on black bin bags and occassionally smell them
Oh mickey Im so sorry about sil, thats awful. Your text sounds perfect. As others have said not alot you can say you just need to be there and be supportive

I think at 19 weeks you have to give birth . The support group I used to go to, one of the girls there she lost hers at 19 weeks and she had to give birth

I'm so sorry to hear about your SIL micky I thunk the main thibg isbthat she knows you are there for her when she is ready to talk; your text was perfect.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you nell

But like you said it did give her some comfort to be able to spend time with the baby. The midwifes took photos and footprints for her. Oh gosh Im getting all upset now. She did go on to have a healthy little girl.

i apologise for my inability to type the last message. The joy of touchscreens

:( mickey that's so sad. Your text sounds perfect. You can't hold off ttc yourself indefinitely though. If you are successful just be careful how you tell her. I know I never begrudged anyone else falling pregnant. It did make me sad obviously but it only seemed bad on the other persons behalf if they rubbed it in my face by going on about why I didn't have a baby (I have lost 3 btw). Hope your SIL is as well as can be expected.

Welcome vegas :)

sorry about your mc :(

come on down the back here with the other menstruating marys :o

CD2 for me. All crampy and sore :(

Add your stats to the big stats if you get a chance. I'm on iPod or I'd do it.

I got lost somewhere along the way
My stats:
sillybillymummy TTC #3 cycle 11 UCL 28 AF due 23rd april

WELL....
Don't know if anyone can throw any light on my situation..?

I have been really regular.. so every 4 weeks, on a weds, i get the bi@tch AF rock up in my obsessive ttc world.
But yesterday NO AF, she usually turns up when i go for my first morning wee. so this morning, i was expecting her. But no... then i went to toilet at 9am ish.. and i had a little (tmi alert) bit of brownish smearing..
I immediately thought, there's the bi@tch. The kids were throwing their rice krispies around the ktichen, so i stuck a tampon up there and carried on with my non-pregnant life.
Then a few hours later, after doing a food shop, and deciding i was going to eat the whole of it today, to make myself feel better... i take the tampon out, and ???? there was a little bit of blood on it... but nothing since?
Usually she is heavy.. straight away.
What are your thoughts? I have 'period pains', but have had for about 4 days now.
I did POAS last week, as i had such stabbing pains, i thought something was going on. But probably too early as it was BFN.
Whats the chances of being pg?

sorry stats say april, but i meant march!

Hi sillybilly, with 2 of my pregnancies I started bleeding when af was due. Got upset that I was'nt pregnant. But when it did'nt develop into normal af I did a test and got bfp. Might be an idea to do another test if this is not a normal pattern for you. Of course sometimes when we are ttc our bodies are mean and does werid things. Although spidookly might say wait a coupe of days and if no af test. Depends how impatient you are.

Thanks for replying orangehead. I am feeling a bit like mother nature is probably playing a nasty little mind trick on me.
It is so different to normal. Usually AF is full on heavy from the start.
Glad i haven't got any tests in the house, as the earliest i will test now is saturday morning. By then surely if it was Af, it would have developed.
I do keep getting stabby type pains. I really hope this is my month, i just don't know how many more times i can get my hopes up!

So theeee question, what is the earliest you girlies have tested and had BFP!|??

(weimy shuffles nervously ..... incase spidookly overhears us)

fx sillybilly.
Rew - Years ago I got bfp 4 days early. But just knew I was pregnant. Had done my black bin bag test.

hi girls,... mickey im so sorry thats awfully sad,but at least she knows youre ttc already. i hav a friend who's had 5 mc,and i dread getting pg and telling her,but i think bcos she knows im trying-for 13mths now too!!- im sure she will b happy for me; and lets b honest there are no guarantees for any of us,even when we do get a bfp,so dont worry about that i say... ur txt is perfect,bless her and her family X
Nell- a line is a line!! it may not get any darker anyway,but its a bfp in my book!! thanks to all who replied to me,i may start temping tomorrow,but is cd10 too late to start as ive no idea what my temp is on other days?? maybe just carry on with the 'plan' and try it nxt mth if need be... fx not!! loving the symptom spotting btw!!
