Flight BFP2012 - passport ready it's our time!

[Countmyblessings]

Hi Ladies - this flight is going on Auto - pilot !
Feeling good things for all still wanting to stay aboard our Flight BFP2012- Welcome one and all!
As we share this journey!

Well done Jam I quit smoking 6 years ago after smoking for almost 10!! It was tough but I can tell you it does get easier.

I haven't really given up anything, just have reduced things like caffeine, alcohol etc and have increased exercise, folic acid and generally eating healthier (not just for TTC but for general health improvement).

I really should be working

Hello ladies!

Just a v quick update from me. Will go through and respond to everyone properly tomorrow morning.

Moo you noticed that my AF is due about now. Sadly did a test this morning and was a v definite BFN!

Still no sign of AF but shes not technically late yet just due. Really not looking forward to her and the horribly painful cramps and awful pms she brings (am main lining chocolate today). So disappointing. :-(

Really want to get on the case next month and swi every opportunity! Think will try temping.

Also what are you talking about when you say you used preseed?

Moo glad things seem to be looking up and ov is happening!

Fingers crossed it will happen this month for us all! :-)

Oh and have given up caffeine and cut way back on alcohol!

Plus folic acid!

hi everyone, just popping in to say hi. Been checking in on all your news, moo sounds like ov is happening more regularly now :)

maisie - congrats to you - think we started the CBFM thread together didn't we?

I am in ANOTHER 2ww now. Been being really positive about everything the last few weeks in the hope that it helps me conceive.... The way i see it as the months go on statistically i am more likely to get preggars!!

wave to everyone else! x

Flour sorry about the BFN but far from over yet!!!

Berries hello stranger! How's tricks??

Well I have just had to leave work because I feel so ill. Have retched a few times but not been sick.....yet. Hope I'm not getting that stomach bug that seems to be going around. Just feel weird. Something is not right :(

Moo that sounds like whatever crappy bug I had. Hope you feel better soon.

Did anyone see One Born Every Minute this week? Feel like I may have changed my mind about this TTC lark!!

Thanks Winkly had some food - seemed to do the trick :)

Don't watch OBEM; it makes me cry because birth is such an amazing beautiful thing and plus I don't want to be put off

Hi Berries, nice to see you again!! Yes we did start on the cbfm thread at the same time, I definitely think it helped me as some cycles I ov'd cd14 others not til cd24!! So if I hadn't had it I would have had no clue. Also used preseed this last cycle when I conceived so that could have helped, who knows!! Hope you're well anyway, check in every now and then.

Hi flour, preseed is a ahem lubricant specially formulated to be sperm friendly as some lubes contain spermicide. It's meant to mimic ewcm and provide safe passage for the sperm!! Bit embarrassing but as is most of ttc!!

Glad you're feeling better moo being nauseous and hungry is definitely a pregnancy symptom got my fingers crossed for you!

I've been craving a cig so bad today, but I havent given in and I won't. Well done for quitting!

Good luck on your tww berries I hope it goes fast for you and you end it with a bfp!

flour sorry about the bfn, but you're not out yet!

Oh Jam I do hope so but have to try and remain pessimistic especially as I was convinced that last month was it for me (although still think I may have had a chemical!).

Went for a Friday night beverage in our local(ish) and have been bombarded by pregnant women. I SWEAR THEY ARE FOLLOWING ME!!!

Ok Ladies, i do not know what to think. As you may, or may not, be aware, my boobies have been very sore over the last 2-3 days (making me think even more that I have ov'd :)) However, tonight, something most strange occurred as I was getting changed into my jim jams.

DH, who was also getting into his jim jams, made a comment about my boobies. And this comment was " your boobies look bigger". I was shocked and quite taken aback. I have asked several times (and shown him my boobies ) is he sure, because i have made my boobies present to him in the past and he has said nothing. In fact, in 6 years, this is the first time he has actually mentioned that they look bigger.

I have heard that bigger boobies can be a sign (oh yes, SSing is in overdrive at the moment) but as I mentioned, I have to remain pessimistic because of potential false alarms in the past.

But they hurt..........they really hurt. And they are burning slightly as well.

Sorry for the self indulgent post, but any thoughts, advice, slap back to reality, would be very very welcome

Oh my goodness! What cd are you again moo?!

Even if it's just a sign of ov, it's still bloody great!

I'm certain I've had 2 chemicals too, as the periods were horrendous and heavy and I was having what felt like contractions!

Just wrote a massive long messge and my Ipad crashed :(

Anyway, I was saying Jam that with my supposed chemical, I had 3 BFP's. The first one was visible to the naked eye (although the picture I posted was too small, stupid Iphone :)) but the next 2 were very very faint. I bled (if you can call it that) but it was only when I wiped or when I went to examine my cervical position. After many many more BFNs i made an executive decision to use the temp drop on day 2 of spotting to move onto this cycle. My boobies eventually became less sore and everything seemed to go back to normal.

My experience was completely different to what you had, which sounds horrendous.

I am currently on CD20 and 7DPO. It can't be ov because I temp and FF has put ov at CD13, plus I had another negative OPK this afternoon (my last positive was on CD12). I just feel really weird and my udders do feel like they are burning, a most unusual feeling. Not sure what to think; only a temp increase tomorrow and an eventual positive pee stick will convince me

You're pregnant!! I bet you are! I really hope so x

Sorry about your chemical, sounds horrible I never tested before as I wasn't watching my cycle, but something was very different.

Any other symptoms? Using loo more? Tired?

Oh Jam I do hope you are right.......but DH had been drinking, so it might have just been his imagination (I will be asking him when he has not had a beer or 2 though!).

I can't say that I definite had a chemical - something weird happened, but it might just have been a weird period. I definitely feel much more different now then I did at this point last month.

I'll be honest, the only symptoms I have are the sorely (and possibly bigger) udders and the tirednes. I am very tired - but I can't be sure that I am not always this tired. Not using the loo any more then I normally do. Have just been feeling odd lately. Only time will tell i suppose.

Oooh and I meant to say, you should try giving DH Zinc supplements, apparently they do wonders for increasing men's mojo. Might be worth looking into.........:)

Don't forget nausea! Some women say they had morning sickness from conception! Eeek getting excited for you! So you're up 3 symptoms there.

DP is on h&b 'ultra man' (tee hee) and zinc supplements, he gets fed them after dinner like a good boy haha. It contains selenium which is meant to be good too.

He's still out with workmates doesn't he realise he's still on duty?! Going to call him now

excellent news!!!! Glad you are feeding him something

you get him back home, before he's drank too much to be any use!

I'm off for a nice sleep now! Catch up tomorrow!!!! :)

Just messages him: don't forget you're on duty tonight, even if in a drunken stupor, it's happening!

Have a nice evening moo
