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

Have you used an OPK yet? DH is wanting to just roll with it and not use that sort of thing yet. I am happy with that but warned him there would be lots of swi to compensate!!! He didn't mind

No not yet. My DH thinks the same, and I'm happy to roll with it too. At least for a few more months. If still no joy then I'll probably start using them tbh

Morning ladies! Got my BFP this morning

OMG Clandy, congratulations!!

I'm over the moon for you, well done! x

Thanks tequila I'm still shaking I can't quite believe it gonna be jumping off the walls all day!!!

I bet you will

Do you know how far along you are then? Was it you who came off the pill end of June and hadn't seen AF since? Or was that somebody else?

I didnt get a chance to go to Boots yesterday for a First Response but will hopefully get there today for 1!

Yeah that was me had af end of august and tested since but nothing now bfp!!! Think I am around 4-8 weeks so not a clue

Glad o got the right person.

Verrrrrrry excited for you!

Big huge congratulations Clandy Whoop whoop xx

*Clandy congratulations

Well ss like crazy at the moment last night i was convinced my boobs were leaking (i have had this in all of my pg) only then to discover that the bottom of my glass of water was dripping.

CONGRATULATIONS CLANDY WOO WOOOP!!! :o

Yay Clandy!! Our first graduate! How exciting! I'm done with SS, none at all so just waiting for AF to come next week and probably will get a basal thermometer for next month.

Tequila how are you not running to get more pg tests?! Let us know the moment you POAS please

Vino how are you my lovely?

Hiya!

Well Im new to this so please bear with me....

We're ttc though - was on the pill for around 12 years but came off it back in May when I got married and now we REALLY want a baby!!

Been trying since then with mixed results so far - month 1 nothing; month 2 positive pregnancy test but had a very early miscarriage (wouldnt have even known if I hadnt have got the Clearblue kit so soon! Was prob only about 3 weeks gone if that...); month 3 showed some symptoms like tiredness and peeig more but this only lasted about a week so I think we conceived but again it didnt turn into anything (mustnt have implanted etc.)
Now in month 4 - period would be due end of next week so we're actively trying and will see what happens!! Fingers & toes crossed!!

I know we've only been trying 4 months but I can feel the obsession and it taking over - hard to think of anything else!!
Wish us luck!! :-)

Massive congratulations again Clandy :) It's so nice to read that!

Welcome 3. It's such a rollercoaster, TTC, isn't it! Im so sorry to hear about your MC. It's an offer thing to happen :( We're only on our first month of TTC #3 and Im more obsessed now then I ever was! Good luck to you.

Im good thank you Fish. Have just finished work and looking forward to a day off tomorrow :)

Guess who is the new owner of 60 Ovulation sticks!?!?! :) They should hopefully last a while!!

Hope everyone has had a good day!

Fish, firstly I can't really afford to POAS every day (as much as I'm dying to!), and secondly I'm hoping if I just do it every few days, I'll hopefully get a firmer positive. Does that even make sense? I know what I mean anyway lol

Welcome 3, and good luck

Vino, 60? Wow! That'll keep you busy

Offer??? meant awful.

Sorry tequila meant no offense.

It certainly will :) It says NOT to use FMU. All this month I made sure it was FMU and thought I was doing the right thing. It also says to make sure it's at room temp, ideally left for 20 mins. Not sure this will work seeing as I start work at 7.30 on a sat morning and the earliest I finish is 3 or 4, sometimes it's 8.30 at night! How on earth will I work that one. They advise doing it between 10am and 8pm... No wonder I never bothered before. It seems a bit technical .

I will do it thought, because I am obsessed!!

What is FMU? And what is SS? P.s. Hello everyone :)

wanna where have you been all my life?!

FMU = First morning urine

SS = Symptom spotting

My God what is going on with my typos???? Think i'll give up using the ipad!!!

Oooh, thanks Fish. I wasn't too sure what SS meant.
