iloveberries Age 31, DH 32, DS 2 yrs. Been TTC #2 for a year, 1 m/c, 1 ectopic, 1 tube removed. Will be starting TTC again after my next AF.

Still following the ladies on my original TTC thread but most of them are now pregnant so whilst I'm delighted for them I wanted to start a new place for those who have been TTC for a while and are still awaiting a healthy, sticky bean in the right place.

All welcome..... nothing if off limits, nothing is TMI, no 'babydust' though please

Well I am happy to say I have definately found 'my' forum. I had posted my question on 3 other threads but on 1 was completly ignored, not even a hello, the 2nd I was told to go away (charming) and the 3rd I got a hello but wasnt accepted into 'the group'. I am happy that I have found you ladies, even without the knowledge of my conditions you have made me feel welcome and supported, so I am giving you all a BIG THANK YOU Blush
I also want to pass on my good luck wishes to you all, that we achieve our goal of getting pregnant (now that does sound strange coming from me, not the well wishes but wanting to get preggers). I feel like a giddy teenager again, and although I cannot ttc until my Triptorellin has worn off in October, it hasnt stopped me from practicing lol, getting my fiance used to the command 'I want your sperm'!!!! Its actually been fun.
I am looking forward to sharing my journey with you, and hopefully hearing from you all that the patter of tiny feet will be joining you soon.

Hi everyone! Tas that is not a good thing to have to deal with but agree with the others. Yes Els quite agree could be pg or pmt but suspect it's the latter as I have the usual backache and there's no boob involvment! And cramps so bad they woke me up last night! Still no AF though on CD 31! Hello Kitty you do make me laugh! Have been meaning to ask how you're getting on with the herbals! Might be worth a try on the Clomid. We all know it's magic! Very lovely words Lyns but I quite agree, although I don't like the sound of those other threads. Can't understand why people would be like that on here!

MunchinMango · 31/08/2012 09:49

Sorry tas your having a tough time. It will always be hard for you. Hopefully soon you will be expecting your own bubba.

Mrs how are you? What hour were you up at? They must have been bad cramps. Have you not been tempted to poas? big slap for putting idea in your head

Kitty I was reading back through posts and I think I missed your post about your pg on your dd. that sounded very scary for you. She is truly a miracle. But hey you have proved the medics wrong!!!

Lynz sorry you were treated so badly on other threads. I can't believe someone told you to leave. But your welcome here anytime.

Elsabel hope all is ok with you.

TGIF!!!! Even though I'm cd 25 and no sign of ov I plan to dtd anyway over weekend jic!!!

Sorry if I've missed anyone as on my phone.

mrsnec · 31/08/2012 16:44

Hi all! Just checking in! Munch, good idea to crack on anyway! Cramps woke me up a 2am. Not had any more all day. Still got the feeling that AF arrived on many occassions but was something else. Still feel like it's about to at any minute. Not testing still too early & feel far to emotionaly fragile to deal with bfn. Given self slap for being just about to launch into symptoms list! Have a great weekend all!

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 31/08/2012 19:09

Hi guys woohoo to that Friday feeling Grin
Well I am excited my dp is 30 soon and I have organised surprise party and it's only one more sleep and I am so excited I may take double my herbal aqua beads in celebration! ESP as that means he is then in his thirtys like me and I may get less of the old girl jokes Wink
Munch- truly a miracle and I realise how lucky I am daily I never complain about how tough parenting can be even when I was a lone parent as I am blessed she is just gorgeous! I agree get going with the baby dancing as sometimes sticks can be wrong just like gp's!Smile
Mrs- my lord I hate pain so sounds hideous! You ok now? Fx it was a bean burying in for next 9 months !
Hi else how you doing?
Berries if you looking big hi hope your feeling ok!
Lynz I cannot believe them ladies it's a tough time for you and everyone and even a hello support would have been nicer! I could rant about selfish rude people but not going to stress us all out with nasty people thoughts, but you are 100% welcome here!
Hi anyone I missed hope everyone is chin up and wine glass down Wink however do as I say not as I do as plan on a sneaky few at tomorrow's party Grin
Happy weekend x

elsabel · 31/08/2012 19:42

hey everyone! Firstly, Lynz thats really bad about those other threads, i must say though this is the most friendly thread ive been on too thats why ive stuck with this one!

Mrs you have willpower if i was you id be poas constantly by now, I was expecting AF today and if i wasnt at work I would be! Are your cycles usually pretty regular? Know what you mean about feeling too fragile for the bfn, I dont think I could emotionally handle the few seconds wait for the line/2lines to appear! Hope your cramps get better though.

Hope you enjoy your weekend hellokitty, sounds like youve got a good one!

Munch i like your thinking, i gave up with the opk's this month and just dtd everyday through the main week! Go for it! Hi to everyone else I havent mentioned and enjoy your weekends Smile

MunchinMango · 31/08/2012 20:41

Just wanted to say cheers to you all we deserve a glass Wine!!!!

Kitty can we come to the party lol!! Sounds like good fun. Enjoy.

Mrs you are do restraint not poas. And elsabel did you yest when you got home?

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 31/08/2012 22:39

mrsnec · 01/09/2012 06:23

Count me in too although I still don't know what to put in my glass! No AF yet. My last cycle was 31 days but before that they were always 28 or 29 cos of my age I even wondered if the start of longer cycles means I'm closer to the change lol! Els what's happening with you we're on same days I think? It's a month today I got that bfn and af arrived same day so still leaving it a bit not willpower am big wuss! Enjoy the doo Hellokitty happy saturday all!

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 02/09/2012 13:59

Hangover Blush fab party and no more alcohol til my birthday in november Grin
Day 19 now! How's all you on day 31 now? X

mrsnec · 02/09/2012 14:15

Hi All! Hope it's not a bad one Hellokitty but glad you all had a nice time! Got AF yesterday. Am fine about it went into town with a friend and consumed buckets of iced coffee & a waffle as big as my head carbs definately help! DH seems worse this time! He was supposed to be at his Hogwarts reunion this weekend. He didn't go cos of the price of flights so he was keeping up online but they've turned it into a family ocassion now & I think he feels a bit left out he's also starting to have the same problem with his friends that I do. Both accept we need to try harder now! Hope the next few days go quick! Think you can make it to Nov with no booze?

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 02/09/2012 14:52

Mrs- that's rubbish news for you both! Poor dh must be really sad I hate it when that happens! Flights are so expensive. Ttc takes so so so much effort and you become tired and loose focus sometimes! Make this af the start of your improved ttc plan x x

mrsnec · 02/09/2012 15:35

It's cos the place is used for PGL type holidays now so all the parents demanded to have to do on the last weekend of the holidays for somethig cheap to do with the kids! I think it's a bit selfish of them really. Even if I had them wouldn't drag them to something like that! Anyway, at least he wont be nagging about dtd too much and in a shallow way I can enjoy myself this month as I still have the spa day to look forward too with DM and can now enjoy sushi and cocktails while we're there too! Have to look on the bright side! Hope the next few days pass quick for you too! Think you've done more than enough to get yours this month!

MunchinMango · 03/09/2012 01:38

So sorry mrs that af showed up and not bfp. But you have to keep trying. And sorry your dh is down but as you say he knows now yous have to dtd more. If its any consolation I feel af is on way for me too as I had crampy pain and sore boobs today. I know it's not bfp as I poas on sat and got a bfn.

Glad you had a great time at party hello kitty. Good woman for being so resolute to stay off alcohol. I felt a bit ropey today after too much vino myself.

We had ds birthday party today in a play place. These things always stress me out and glad its over. Had a thumping headache all evening and now can't sleep!!! I'll be wrecked come morning :(

mrsnec · 05/09/2012 12:59

Hi All just checking in! Munch any news? X

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 05/09/2012 13:16

Any news munch ? Hey everyone!!! X

MunchinMango · 05/09/2012 15:03

Hiya mrs and Hellokitty.

All I can report is I'm on cd 30, still no AF, so I poas on opk this morning and got a smiley face. I did it because yest I had alot of crampy pains. I have had them today also and still tender boobs. So I guess we will have to find some energy to dtd tonight.

How are you both doing? It's very quiet around here.

hellokittydrivesmenuts · 05/09/2012 18:00

It has gone very quiet! All good this end on day 22 of a normal 28 cycle so keeping everything crossed but took a test on Monday which was bfn but that's just got loads of 10ml cheapies to use up ! Mission done And I have no more so wont buy any til am due Wink well that's what I like to think Grin x

rachie12 · 05/09/2012 18:15
