littlechristmaself · 13/12/2005 09:29

Coriander73 keep trying i do good luck everyone

Coriander73 · 13/12/2005 17:45

In some respects, if not all, I wish I'd fall again without realising it! DD (now 15 months) was conceived using the withdrawal method...it really does happen then we said when we found out I was pregnant!!

This time around we are actively trying which I've found to be a little odd..."right DH, tonight is the night...oh & again on Sunday"!! It's slightly taken the fun away...any ideas on how not to think about "I want to get pregnant" when doing the deed?!!

littlechristmaself · 13/12/2005 18:23

Coriander73 no sorry had first three mistakes good one though, and now trying and getting nowhere

Coriander73 · 13/12/2005 18:35

Do you mean 3 mistakes & 3 children?!

littlechristmaself · 13/12/2005 19:04

three mistakes became three kids

littlechristmaself · 13/12/2005 19:05

hi all........cheers everyone who helped with the thermometer thing, im gonna get one from Boots tomorro. Am v. excited, i just need af to happen this month now! then i know i can start counting and we can go for it dh thinks it highly amusing to let me know that whenever i "dont fancy it" now, will come back to haunt me once official babydancing season starts! ive told him in no uncertain terms, he will feel like it, we will be doing it nearly every day, and no we cant stop if he gets fed up!! btw, I didnt realise there was another thread, (fall for fall) i hope everyone feels welcome enough to pop in and out as they choose, to this one and the other.
Spod.....sorry your dh had a change of mind, hugs to you xx Good luck everyone, get ready for countdown! btw, anyone seen decafgirl?

Cori, what you said about trying not to think about getting pregnant when actually doing it.......unless you're acutally at the moment of "arriving" shall we say (!) i think this is impossible to do!!

Coriander73 · 13/12/2005 20:22

I guess not pussycat!!!! It's bad enough trying to fantasise....let alone thinking "come on you little buggars!!"....oh the romance of it all....

i know.....we become far too conversant with the complexities of it all dont we! my mother was telling me today about a girl who still lives in her village whom i went to school with, shes got 2 sets of twins and has just had another!! and heres me and my sister stuggling for 1 between us! it cant be that difficult for some folks can it?

hi girls,

I'm new to this thread. Am 30 next month, DH is 31, both working abroad (in former Soviet Union).

Are any others of you trying for mid Jan?

And anyone else get completely obsessed with this whole topic, e.g. we only did it once within the 'fertile period' once last month, and not really trying seriously till Jan, yet was CONVINCED was pregnant, imagined symptoms that were just good old Auntie F...

Coriander73 · 14/12/2005 07:46

It's probably just stress wouldn't you say? Stress at work, stress of day to day living...stress of so wanting to conceive that all you do is think about it when we should just try & chill a little...easier said than done I know.... maybe girl in the village is just very very fertile...& doesn't have the same stresses?! Keep going pussycat...

thanks cori....... you do have to tell yourself that dont you, that its just one of those things and that there is nothing "wrong"...it is difficult though, my sister has had complications and ivf is the only way she will be able to concieve now. She has had one attempt so far, but had a traumatic ectopic So even though i feel massively guilty if i ever do get pregnant, i so cant put our own baby plans on hold much longer iyswim......its a minefield isnt it.
Gem...big hugs and welcome to our little gathering. Hope we can all encourage each other and create some baby magic to be wafted back and forth through (cyber) space!

I know what you mean pussycat. My Sister had a baby boy born at 28 weeks 5 years ago now. He had a blot cot & died 36 hours later. She's never got over it & doesn't have much to do with my Daughter. She's very much an absent Aunt, which whilst I can understand how hard it must be for her (now that I'm myself a Mother & also I was there with her when he died), I do get immensely frustrated as it's not DDs fault. Yes, I went through a phase of feeling incredibly guilty when I fell pregnant & then through for the first few months of DD life but then I stopped. You cannot carry that guilt around as it's completely self destructive. It doesn't do anyone any good........why should anyone feel quilty that they've been able to bring a little one into the world?

Welcome to you Gemittygem....If you've read the threads you'll have seen that I was convinced I was pg this month...had all the symptoms, or so I thought! Still on & up & much shagging this month...(sorry to be crude!)

Coriander73 · 14/12/2005 09:08

BTW...AF arrived last Friday...

After much denial (!!) realised how lucky I am with DD & that if it's happened first time it will, we hope, happen again at some point in the not too distant future. Actually (& I can't believe I'm saying this), we had sex last night...DH said "so if you've just finished AF...is this a practise run then cos surely you can't get pg quite yet?!!" Made me laugh...

IsawPussycatmommakissingsanta · 14/12/2005 09:20

oh cori, so sorry to hear about your sister too. I find that nieces and nephews on my dh side are a great comfort to me, but then we are just ttc, we have not been through anything as traumatic (thank God) Hey you never know about ccving just after your af....if your cycle is all over the place?!

OP posts:

Gemmitygem · 14/12/2005 10:37

thanks for kind welcome corrie and pussycat..

Can't wait to try in Jan (can't in December because unfortunately the fertile days are right over Christmas when DH and I will each be with our parents who live in different countries!

Can't exactly say 'sorry Mum and Dad, must pop off 200 miles for a shag!' So decided to leave it till Jan..

I can see us all preggo by end Feb, then we can go through all the nice later symptoms together too!

Coriander73 · 14/12/2005 11:44

I reckon you should have plenty sex before & after then...just in case you are ov. earlier or later than you think? Get in the practise ...you need nice heathly sperm!!

Well they say no two pgs are the same..I bloody hope not as I wasn't good for the first 18 weeks with DD so whilst I'm desp. hoping I'll be pg by the Spring, not actually looking forward to the pg until the same 18 week period is over,....if it's as bad again....!!! Joy oh Joy...

going4potty · 14/12/2005 12:15

hi, new to this thread, I feel for you and your sis corri, just had an ectopic myself, and sis in law is pregnant. Everyone deals with things differently i s uppose. Personally cant wait for my new niece nephew and give them loads of muchies and cuddles. But it is hard, how long ago did all this happen?

beansontoast · 14/12/2005 12:47

wow get that baby dust...almost like th ereal thing

im not officially ttc..so im a big fat fraud really .
however i AM pathologically broody.

there is NO way we can fit in another baby...and have me finish uni,buy a house etc .IT WOULD BE JUST TOO NAUGHTY [thats my outer voice)

my inner voice [the strong silent type]has raised the idea with dp ,of a 'one night only' (though realistically a 'one morning only') christmas day russian roulette stylee sesh,iykwim. it appeals to his sentimental side as ds was conceived in much the same way.

yes a nice september baby in time for th estart of my final year research project,no mat pay or benefits of any kind..thats sounds like a carefully constructed superplan bound not to fail

it just doesnt feel like good sense to wait..it feels like a gamble

back in the real world...good luck to you guys...i just had to have my little illicit rant

xxx
ps i love that baby dust

going4potty · 14/12/2005 13:16

ps im not officially ttc yet either, still on sick leave! dh and i have decided were just gonna practice till were ready

DissLocated · 14/12/2005 13:23

Wow, so many of us with the same idea! I haven't seen this thread for a few days as we've been in hospital with poor dd who had tonsilitis and pneumonia. She's OK now though, just trying to get her sleeping back on track.

I'm so shattered at the moment, it's taken me right back to the newborn days ... what am I letting myself in for???
