No more Pill!! This is it!! Starting a JULY-AUG 2012 bus...

[PipIsOutNow]

Hey guys!! Have taken the big step of coming of the Pill to TTC another DC. This will be DC number 2 - already have DS who is 15 months old and a DSD who is 7 years. We have spoken about another baby for a while now but it has now become more of a reality now that we have decided to stop using any contraception!! I am so so excited but know all too well about this horrible waiting game of patience which seems to get worse even after a BFP as then it's the painful wait for a 12 week scan!! (although this time I may pay for a private scan) I have had a MC before DS was born so am also aware of not getting to ahead of myself...but I'm so excited nonetheless!! I bought my friend a little present for her brand new (with tags on) baby girl and was so so broody. Cant wait for my turn now!!

Sorry for the long warbling post. This is such a hard time, the pre TTC, the waiting for BFP or BFN etc etc...I am the most impatient person in the world as it is...and to not to be able to tell anyone in RL makes it even harder!!

Hope there will be some ladies in the same boat as me!! Look forward to meeting u and sharing journeys!!

Lots of love, Pip xx

Me too Secret :) It's nice to talk openly!

Oh, wanna I hadn't realized you still had yet to hear from DH. I'm sure he's okay, probably just knackered from all your SWI you bowled him over with recently [hgrin]

Brill news on your bleed - now you can start obsessing counting properly.

I'm also playing the name game in my head - and feel lucky in this respect that I have no partner to quibble with and potentially have to compromise on a name I less than love! [hgrin]

Names will definitely be a tough one as I'm from Wales originally and love all the welsh names. It's kind of mean to call a german boy Iolo or Ieuan though as there's no way anyone will be able to pronounce it!

I'm big time regretting last night - can't sleep as drank too much wine and as for the cigarettes, well I feel revolting

In other news, I got proposed to last night! DP tottered in completely drunk with a ring made from foil, fell onto the bed, proposed and then had to go to the bathroom to throw up . I have to say, it was about as romantic as it sounds and I've no idea if it actually counts or not! I think i'll wait and see if he remembers in the morning.....

Aww congratulations cauldron! That is how my mum and dad got engaged and 25 years and 4 kids later they r still going strong

Well Cauldron...CONGRATULATIONS!! What did he say in the morning? Did he remember?!

Fish, saw you on the AIBU thread, thanks. Still no word so I am just guessing he is very drunk having phone problems!

TGIF...off to work and really CBA. AF is in full swing and I feel like shit a bit rubbish. My boss isn't in so I will probably log on during the day.

Urgh...can't wait for some wine tonight...mmm

Huge congratulations Cauldron! Im sure he meant it :)... Please don't worry about the wine and fags. I certainly indulged in some yummy wine last night! Tomorrow DH wants to go for a couple of drinks when I finish work and have an indian take away afterwards. Seriously not healthy but you have to live!
Ive had two children (and two MC) and I still have no effing clue! I remember with DS my boobs hurt and I had awful lower back pain, but this was at the time AF was due... TBH I think it's my body getting back to normal.

fish, poor you not having hotel chocolat :( That is my favourite place! May have to treat myself

wannabe I hope you hear from your DH soon! Enjoy your wine tonight!!

Fishpants, thanks for the new list. Yes I'm almost at the end, no symptoms or anything though

Cauldron, congratulations! DH was very drunk when he proposed to me too, he didnt get down on 1 knee or anything

Where do I find the Facebook group? Is it invite only or can anyone join?

Just pm us your Facebook details tequila and we'll find you!!

I feel like total crap this morning and DP is still comatose. I'm not going to mention the "proposal" and I bet he doesn't remember... There's a tin foil ring on the bedside table which might jog his memory though!

Wannabe sorry to hear your dh not been in contact - give it to him all guns blazing when he calls!!!

Oh I've just had an idea - can we add which number dc we're ttc onto our list?

Thanks cauldron, I'll pm you when I get onto the laptop (on phone at the min)

I like the idea of putting the DC number, I am TTC %232

Hope you're feeling better soon, and I think you should definitely remind DH - maybe little hints all day

What happened there? I'm not TTC DC 232 just DC 2!

Awww ok I've cheered right up - he rolled over in bed and put the tin foil ring back on my finger.....

I'm engaged!!!

Right so, what happens next?

Pmsl @ dc 232 btw....

YAY CAULDRON! Let's all have some bevvies tonight to celebrate?!! x

congrats again Cauldron!

Now you need to take him out to the shops and choose a nice sparkly ring! The tin foil one is very sweet but may turn your finger green after a few days wear

Ok...Re-done list. Add and update ladies.

Tequila, PM me your name and I will FB add you. We really should create a secret group on FB so we can talk properly on there. You are all adidng me but I am forgetting who is who :( So confusing!!!

DH still AWOL. He is due back at 6pm...suprisingly not pissed off though! Gonna suggest a takeaway (Ta for the inspiration Vino) and wine :) I managed to get the afternoon off work so I will clean the house and do wifely things...maybe even bake!!!

I think ring shopping could be problematic... He's in the restaurant 6 days a week and as his day off is Monday I'm working then!

Slightly annoying as we could have gone this week - that's what happens when such an important task is left to dp: planning and organisation go out the window!

Considering making a list on my phone of who is who MN name = Real Name

Congratulations again Cauldron. How's he feeling this morning?

Actually he's well chuffed and we've had a good chat about it all. He will go preliminary ring shopping (when he has saved up!) and pick out a few then I can come after work and choose one...

We did say we would tell family but not friends but already I'm not so sure!

He mustn't be feeling too hungover as he's singing to the dog....

Oh btw please don't put anything on fb yet as I'm out of the uk it'll take me a while to tell everyone....

Goodness you girls can talk! Only been away for a few days!

POAS this morning (and yesterday morning and the morning before ) but BFN
But am not due AF till Tuesday 1st so am still holding out hope
Am feeling pregnant, tummy feels funny like AF due, sore boobs, more tired then usual and a bit of nausea. This of course could be wishful thinking.
As my last pregnancy back in Aug was an ectopic I feel I need to know ASAP if I'm pregnant or not

Will probably wait till Tuesday if AF doesn't arrive to test again as its really disheartening to keep getting BFN

Cauldron congrats on your engagement I thought the whole tin foil ring is actually very sweet
