Everyone makes such a thing about morning sickness and I never had it really. I felt a bit queasy with DS2 whenever I smelt mint but I dont know if that counts.

Kayzr · 19/09/2011 09:53

Morning,

babybrain3 · 20/09/2011 09:08

Have had some spotting this morning...AF isn't due til Sunday, so hopefully it's implantation bleed... Watch this space!!!!

MammaInTheMaking · 20/09/2011 11:07

Oohhh baby I hope that's what it is!

I'm currently symptom spotting! Confused

babybrain3 · 20/09/2011 12:12

Its still just spotting I'm hoping it is too!! Fx for you too mumma

Carlitawantsababy · 21/09/2011 08:30

Hi all! Hope you are all well? It's pretty quiet on here these days, I had to look through page 2 to find the thread!
Grin yay! Congratulations bats and Ellie come and join the grad thread when you're ready!
wouldbe I haven't had any sickness or nausea and am very happy about it. Just hope it's a sign of a pleasant pregnancy!
Ooh, FX babybrain! mamma what symptoms have you got so far? Smile

Carlitawantsababy · 21/09/2011 08:34

By the way, foolserrand needs to be moved from the list into graduates next tune someone does an update; she's been there for a while. Smile

babybrain3 · 21/09/2011 08:37

Hicarlita nice to hear from you again!!! Don't think my optimism has paid off this month....AF is here this morning :(

Carlitawantsababy · 21/09/2011 08:43

Oh Sad sorry babybrain

MammaInTheMaking · 21/09/2011 09:54

ah babybrain that's so annoying. Ah well, just got to get rid of her, take a deep breath and believe that it's all about next cycle. Wishing you luck.

Carlita that's so sweet of you to have popped over. Well with the pregnancy that miscarried in August i was feeling some nausea in the lead up to AF's due date plus a lot of burping/food repeating on me (how ladylike!). Have had a couple of episodes of nausea and am a bit gassy Blush . Would be utterly amazing if i could get pg straight away following the mc. We've def dtd a fair few times over the few days the opk was showing the lines and in all fairness we've done it a hell of a lot more this time than last time which lead to the BFP. So i am hopeful and no where near as stressy and anxious as last time. AF is due 30th Sept if i'm going by my ov date. I want to come and join you back on the Grad thread!!

Carlitawantsababy · 21/09/2011 10:24

And we want you back mamma! I know you had symptoms before but it doesn't have to be that way is all I'm saying, so stay positive, every pregnancy is different so they say! Smile

Tw1nkle · 21/09/2011 15:47

Hiya everyone....sorry AF got you babybrain3.

Good luck MammaInTheMaking!!!

babybrain3 · 21/09/2011 18:13

Am drowning my sorrows with a Wine or 3. I hate this whole thing atm :(

Levana · 21/09/2011 22:44

Sorry about AF babybrain3, I know how gutting it is when AF turns up.

It was last year in September that I decided to ttc number 1, and today I have just got a BFP!! I'm a bit stunned and don't believe it but the ClearBlue is saying 'Pregnant 2-3' so I am tentatively believeing it! Jesus.

I gave up on the buses in about April as felt too fed up with the BFNs so I'm not sure if anyone knows who I am anymore but will update the stats to graduate.

Amazing Levana!!! Congratulations x x

wouldbemumandotherstuff · 22/09/2011 10:51

Congratulations Levana - wonderful news!! Smile and thanks for coming back to tell us - I do remember you from before (I seem to have been here a while...) but I do find it encouraging that we have such a nice long graduates list (and a lovely graduates thread to, er, graduate to!) Smile

lovely to have you visiting carlita and so so pleased that you are loving being pregnant - that is just wonderful! do keep dropping by! Smile

FX for you mamma!

sorry to hear about AF babybrain Sad. I know how you feel. We seem to have been trying for ages now. I find I need a major self-pitying rant from time to time (I just do that in my head usually Blush) so if it helps to spill, then we're here to listen!! enjoy the Wine in the meantime!!

CD27 here and starting that all too familiar yo-yo between thinking this might be our month and being despondent that it will ever happen. so, I have slightly sore boobs - they were the same last month and that meant nothing. do they seem larger? - you're not a sylph, girl, they always look like that and your bra still fits. am I a bit tired and dizzy at times? would love to think so, but I'm on holiday in SE Asia - it is indolence and heat!
didn't pack any tests, so can't waste my money POAS until we get home at the weekend, and going to try to wait until Mon/Tues. I think from my CM that I ov'd on CD16, so I'm expecting AF Sun or Mon - but my body sings to its own sweet tune and rarely informs me, so who knows! Hmm (whenever poor DH asks what 'the signs' are like, generic for all things CM, spotting, cramping etc etc and my interpretation, the answer is nearly always 'baffling' - I'd do as well trying to read it in my Brew!)

eurochick · 22/09/2011 12:37

Congratulations levana wonderful news!

toddle · 22/09/2011 20:00

Sorry to hear about at catching you babybrain. I'm sure I'll be joining you in a day or two Sad.

On a brighter note dp got me a dog to cheer me up a bit. Apparently I can practice being his mummy until one of our own shows up. he even said he didn't expect things to take this long which made me well up a tad. He said if by next year still haven't had no joy he is of to give the doctors some of his swimmers to check. That rather made me giggle his one of those that would wait until a leg was falling of before he decided to do something.

Huge contrats levana I defiantly remember you and glad you came to share your good news. You must both be really excited Smile

toddle · 22/09/2011 20:02

And euro chick too sorry my phone seemed to delete your name :s.

BatsInTheSnowglobe · 22/09/2011 22:32

Thanks for all the congrats... good luck to everyone else, hope you all get your BFP soon too.
Thanks Carlita I'll come find the grad board!

Kayzr · 23/09/2011 06:04

Congratulations Levena!!! GrinGrin

Levana · 23/09/2011 09:50

Thank you all for your congratulations. I really hope to see you all soon on the grad list.

I conceived cycle 13 so hang in there!

I've been round the houses with supplements, acupuncture etc and won't bore you with the details because I know you are all doing it one way or another but I do think it all helped as my cycle is quite different from what it was in Sep 2010 when I started ttc.

If you are into the acupuncture / TCM then Randine Lewis has a really good book called the Infertilty Cure which I find great. Anyway best wishes for the BFP's.

wouldbemumandotherstuff · 23/09/2011 11:02

thanks for the tips, Levana - I looked the book up on Amazon, does look good. so pleased about your BFP. it is really encouraging that it does happen even if it takes a while. hadn't thought about acupuncture seriously, but that sounds interesting.

babybrain - re-read my last post and have been fretting that you might have thought that I meant you were being self-pitying - so so sorry if you read it that way - not meant at all. I have a tendency to go off the deep end when I let myself dwell on it all, so really try not to, as I know I just wind myself up. hope the Wine helped and that you're feeling more cheery. Smile
