Hey All!
Im currently on CD 20 so around 8-10 days until the AF arrives or I can test :D Just thought there may be some others that are waiting and driving themselves crazy! Thought we could hopefully share our BFP within the next few weeks, and keep each other sane! :D

I've been feeling v emotional too. Watching OBEM is dangerous I always end up blubbing through the whole thing.

Then yesterday ds wouldn't go to bed and I felt so angry, irrationally so. I could easily have punched the wall but I didn't.

Really hope my hormones arent going to be this bad the whole time!

Southsearocks · 11/02/2012 08:56

Snowbeetle and Beeblebear that's fabulous news! Many congratulations Thanks Smile

bettybat · 11/02/2012 09:06

JamRagRolyPoly · 11/02/2012 09:25

Hi, I'm Jam, can I join you on board the hideousness that is the tww?

I'm 25yo DP is 32. We were relaxed ttc for 18 months since I came off the depo injection, but decided to start actively ttc as nothing was happening.

I think I'm 1dpo today

pippilongsmurfing · 11/02/2012 09:35

Morning Ladies, Congrats to the BFPers!!!

I'm 12 dpo, so gonna test again on Monday, can't wait, although will probably be a very unexciting BFN :(

Snowbeetle · 11/02/2012 09:58

Thanks everyone for the congrats and being generally lovely. Bettybat I don't feel like I want to leave - it has made such a big difference having all of you to laugh with and moan at so thanks again. Hopefully I'll see you around on mn, and I fully intend popping in to see how you are all doing. Keeping everything crossed for everyone.

Welcome to the newbies - it is a lucky thread just now so defo the right place to be!! Wink

CountMB and DH21 - hope you are both feeling much happier today. It is pants with knobs on when you are in the grip of those emotions.

Hope you all have a great weekend and valentines if you're planning in doing anything. Thanks

bettybat · 11/02/2012 10:25

Snowbeetle OF COURSE you're always welcome, you're part of this whole THING Grin And - hahahaha! - I'm somehow making it sound like it is but it's not a goodbye! But I would love to see you go and enjoy yourself over in Pregnancy....awwww, it's like a graduation, a rite of passage. I'll probably be in there myself, living vicariously through all those threads Wink

I'm sure we'll all see you over there soon xxxx

Snowbeetle · 11/02/2012 11:07

awwwww Bettybat I'm all choked up now

LauraM20 · 11/02/2012 11:17

Wow!!' so much has happened in such a short space of time!! I'm so happy for everyone that got there BFP this month, let's hope this luck is spreading!! Congratulations all!

I have been doing really well over the past few weeks not stressing but today I feel majorly depressed, think it's knowing AF is probably going to arrive by the end of next week, I have a stinking cold, feel really sick and would quite happily lie in my bed all day :(

Rant over!! Have a sunshiney day everyone! :)

Just wanted to echo what Snowbeetle said. It's been so lovely to have you ladies to moan/ symptom spot/ rant with, especially as none of our friends and family knew we were ttc. Thank you so much for all the support. TTC really takes its toll emotionally and this thread has been a great source of strength :)

TartyMcFarty · 11/02/2012 13:04

Well, CD32 for me (no idea about DPO), but tested BFN. Don't know what's going on with my cycles - this happened a few months back Sad

DH doesn't seem remotely interested either.

TartyMcFarty · 11/02/2012 13:06

Oh, but congratulations to snowbeetle, beeblebear and twolittlemonkeys Smile

misslaughalot · 11/02/2012 13:30

Hi all, just a quickie from me as I'm working on my MA assignment today and trying not to get distracted!

CD34 here, no AF yet. Haven't POAS since my Thursday BFN and am now convinced I'll have another 40 day cycle and AF will appear next weekend.

Might POAS Tuesday though...valentine's and all that, would be good news to have...

Hope all our BFP graduates are feeling rosy today Grin!

Countmyblessings · 11/02/2012 14:05

ahhhhhhhhh
elles - no i never mentioned it to DH, i feel so foolish! thankfully no word had to be muttered he just forgot about it and blabbed on about something else!!!!
DH21 i avoid all those baby programs can't bear watching them right now feeling like a fraud pretending all is well! and not!!!!
bbat- I'm on cd26 and not feeling hopeful at all no more cramps today but i think Af will be rolling up in her pimped up broom to take away my baby hopes for another month!!!!! (yes we can cyber hugs to you!)
pip depending on your cycle length it could be good to hold off for a bit!
SB- i wish i could say pants to my emotions i feel so erratic!!!!!!!!!wish i could blame it on pregnant,baby hormones!!!!!!!!
BFP crew - please don't leave unless you want to - i really want you guys to share this with us!!!!!

Beeblebear · 11/02/2012 15:46

Good morning everyone and thanks for all the congratulations!

I really wanted to wait for v day to tell my dh but my brain was in such a fog yesterday and i knew that i wouldn't be able to sleep if i didnt tell him.

So i went to a craft store and bought a blank t shirt and an irin on that says baby bump with an arrow pointing down.
Told my dh i got a new shirt and asked if he wanted to see. Of couse he said yes.. so i showed him and he was like ok......... and i kept staring at him when thirty seconds later he blurts out YOURE PREGNANT!! like we had been playing a difficult game of charades. It was hilarious. Then he gave me a big long kiss. After that he went on to talking abought what we will need to do to baby prooif the house. Gotta love men and their practical thought

speculationisrife · 11/02/2012 18:10

beeblebear - Grin at baby-proofing. Did you tell your DH that they don't come out crawling/walking? What a brilliant way to break the news, though - super-creative!

countmyblessings - sorry to hear how tough it is for you right now. I know how the months go by very slowly in a constant state of expectation - it's very hard. Same to Laura and Tarty - it's such a bloody rollercoaster, and the games our bodies play with us when we're ttc - stupid cycle-lengths and not knowing what's going on. It's maddening!

For me this is the best bit of the month - CD10 - when I know I'll just have to do everything I can over the next week - it's better than just sitting back and waiting at least. Although the pressure to DTD isn't always great, at least I feel like I'm doing something!

Bimbledorf · 11/02/2012 18:13

Aw that is such a lovely way to tell you DH Beeblebear, really excited for you and all of you who have your BFN....me, AF came today out of the blue..5 days late and a million BFN later. Oh well there's always next month.

Bimbledorf · 11/02/2012 18:13

sorry that should OF COURSE read all of you who have your bfP!!

DesperateHousewife21 · 11/02/2012 20:01

Sorry bimble that sucks :(

AF has finally gone so dh and I are back to dtd!

ellesabe · 11/02/2012 21:51

dh21 that was quick! Af usually lasts 5-6 days for me but this month seems unusually light so we'll be back to work soon too! Grin

DesperateHousewife21 · 11/02/2012 22:10

I know even I was surprised! It was really heavy on thurs and still uncomfy yesterday when dh wanted to dtd so I said wait til today. Was worried it would still be there but it wasn't at all.

I've just got a period tracker app, it's really good you can put in your AF start date and it tells you when you're fertile days are and when you are likely to OV and you can put in your moods or if you have backache or sore breasts etc. and what days you've been 'intimate' I like having things clearly written in front of me so it'll def help to keep on track of it all.

Beeblebear · 12/02/2012 04:30

Dh21. I used an app too called ovu view. It was great for keeping track of everything And I guess it was fairly close in predicting ov too!

I think it's way to easy to overwork yourself with rhe things that could possibly go wrong. I was so worried about dh and his super hot daily baths, and having the heated seats in his car on all the tine, and my previous late term abortion, and not timing swi on the day my app said etc. but it all workrd out fine ;)

Still can.t believe it. Poas on a cheapie again today (why not they are there) and was definately darker than yesterday!

Dh was too excied to keep it secret and did tell his friend today, so we have each tolf one friemd.

Think we are going to wait a couple weeks to tell our folks though.

Beeblebear · 12/02/2012 04:31

Sorry for the poor spelling. On mobile and the correction does not work very well.

wifey6 · 12/02/2012 08:21

Good morning ladies! I am on my 2ww now so I am officially on the waiting game. I feel more relaxed about it all this month & am just pleased that my body is finally functioning normally again! Got a very busy 2 weeks planned with my birthday etc so will be occupied!
