Podmog I only have a very faint line too, and now I have a 14 month old dd!! Congratulations

Oh what a wonderful thread!!

[CountessDracula]

Sorry M2T here I am. Just worked out that should be BD'ing next weekend when am at wedding of good friend who is fine wine merchant grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

When I got pg with dd I had no idea, had our annual xmas drinks party two days before I found out, at which needless to say I drank plenty. I'm with M2T, I think as long as you cut down (ie don't get legless) after you have BD'd then should be fine. I drank nothing from the day I found out I was pg until about 4 months. Then 2 glasses of wine 2 or 3 times a week.

I think it's ok to be a bit more relaxed too. I still have 2 units a week while pg and I will not feel bad about that. Apparantly with alcoholic mothers (not suggesting any of us are btw )they put them on a reduced alcohol intake but continue to have a fair bit because they beleive the stress to the mother would do more damage to the baby.

Dino - a link for you
here

[quackers]

Woops,
It won't do it, sorry!

Hey girls...silly question,but...exactly when do you ovulate?? I have heard 10-12 days after the first day of your period, then I have also heard 14?? I need to know to be more precise. I only ovulated last week....roughly ttc all week so my fingers are crossed.

[hana]

Dinosaur, our dd was conceived over the Christmas period 3 years ago and I didn't find out I was pregnant until about 6 weeks or so (early Jan)From mid Dec up until just after New Year's I indulged rather a lot! She is a sparkie toddler now, no problems. The books all seem to say (and everyone else on this thread) that it doesn't seem to matter, it's only after you find out that you are expecting to make necessary changes. I guess you should go with what you feel comfortable in doing.....
So, there are 7 of us?? Until Podmog does another test and leaves us for the July thread!

[CountessDracula]

melliek depends how long your cycle is. if 28 days then I believe day 14/15

It's funny here without Jemma7 isn't it? Must go and check on the anyone due thread and see how she's getting on..

[CountessDracula]

And meeeeeeeeeeee Hana!

[fisil]

Shouldn't the Countess be on that list too, or did I miss something?

[fisil]

Ooops, posts crossed.

[littlerach]

Can I join you all?! We have decided that dd - 2.7 needs a baby to look after, so we have been BD ing every other day for 2.5 weeks!!! Dh thinks he is in heaven!! I came off the pill last month, so it's a long shot to think it could happen this month, but you never know!!

[fisil]

Hi Littlerach. You must be exhausted!

[hana]

oops to the Countess
big bow down to the ground with my humble apologies!!!!! This is already v v busy!

[futurity]

I have an eye on this thread as I will be ttc over Xmas. I have a 22 month ds who is such a handful so why I am going for another one I don't know!

[sibble]

I'll be doing the same. if not pg this month will have christmas and new year off and start again next year. It has been a long year with minimum alcohol, a christmas let my hair down session is in order (unless pg off course) fingers crossed. Not looking too good this month though day 14 today and have 2 late nights (meetings) and a DH with his usual mid-cycle headache!! Dh is cracking under teh pressue of bd'ing every other day from day 7 even with the steak and oysters to keep him going!!

[eyelash]

Congrats to all the graduates - thinking of you all.

Please add me to the list. TTC no 3 (following 2 miscarriages June/Sept and one in between ds1 and ds2). Using persona and due to ovulate in next couple of days but off to training course in morning for 3 days so taking a chance tonight!

Happy trying to everyone and will log in again at the weekend to catch up.

[cazzybabs]

And me - please add me to this list - although still waiting for AF to come. And have a very sore tit, although sadly I think it was where DD bit me by mistake and is now bleeding. UMM blood and breastmilk - poor dd. Still dp says I must give up bf as he puts it down as a soul reason why still ttc!

[M2T]

This thread is busy already!

I have a major problem in my midst!! I have booked a smear (well overdue) for 27th Nov. However.... IF I conceived over the weekend then I can't have it. But AF isn't due until 30th Nov..... will the 27th be too soon to test??

I certainly can't have a smear if I'm pg! Then again could the Nurse be able to tell by feeling my cervix if it's too soon to test?

There is a small chance I am pg already... very small though.

HELP, what do I do??

[quackers]

I think it's a litttle early to get a 'reliable' result. There are not that many positives picked up 3/4 days before a period. I read about 10%. Could you maybe rearrange it?? Fingers corssed for you!! - (I think)???
