Day 29 for me. Another month of ttc2... AF anywhere between day27 and 31. Hate these few days each month of hoping, hoping that this month is the one. Anyone else out there sitting on the waiting sofa right now? I've just made a cuppa if you fancy one!!!!!

Well hello blue Biscuit
I'm at day 26 now. Last few months i've managed to spot symptoms that haven't existed so trying to be laid back. Am nonchalantly whistling on the outside while playing the constant track, do i feel sick, does my womb feel funny, are my boobs sore, ......well, i can tell you that if you poke your nipples enough to see if they are sore they become sore, who knew!!
i used to be very good staying off booze for 2ww but now a very weak gin and lemonade is a fine companion and find the lows aren't so bad if i'm not too hopeful. having said that, i hope we stumble on a mountain of baby dust! For the last few months i've been giving myself a treat that can only be done non-pregnant when AF b*tch slaps me, including learning to motorbike and been road and mountain biking a fair bit. hope your wait on the sofa isn't too painful....

Moved along the sofa and offering you a cushion... Laughed at your 'if you poke your nipples enough' comment, sooooo true. I have no true symptoms. Have had fantasy ones last few months which was probably indigestion and too many late nights. They say as soon as you stop worrying/thinking bowt it, it'll happen. Its been 8mnths now. Ho hum. Nice to meet you anyway. Enjoy your weak g n l drink. I've got a nice red wine ready for the weekend. All the best.

Thank you for the plumped cushion! that'll do nicely!
It certainly is a time that plays tricks with your mind!! We're about the same for trying time. I was furious tidying out our bathroom cupboard and i must have pee'd on £100 of early detection tests and ovulation sticks!! have said no more but might go the ovulation stick route again just to see if all is going as it should!! i keep thinking 'no-one said it would be easy...'
keep in touch and let me know how you go. I feel like an angry dragon right now so sure AF is hunting me down.

Morning. I've got tummy cramps and AF slowly starting. Day 30 so it is due. this IS SOOOOO HARD. Hubby gone off to work, gave me a cuddle and said we'll just keep trying. And so the long month starts again.
How long have you been trying? We have dd who is nearly 4. She keeps begging for a sister (which is hard for me to keep hearing.) I also m/c in January.
I hope it is a lucky month for you. Let me know.
Enjoy the sunshine.

oh sorry to hear {hug}
Are you absolutely sure AF here? That's good of DH, my husband smiles and says all cheerily that we need more practice! I had sanitary towel on today as crampy, due tomorrow. Get that list of things you like you shouldn't have pregnant, pate, soft cheese and lots of lush red wine!!
We started trying in July last year, early miscarriage in august and later miscarriage in december which was awful, got the all clear in feb to start trying again. Sure it must pull on the heart strings when your daughter says that, maybe get her a fish or a rabbit to distract her?!!! or tell her girls are made in 2013 to buy you some time and if she rushes you she might get a brother uurghh!! Generally i find once i come to terms with AF i feel quite enthused as you get into the shagfest quite quickly Grin
Thank you for your very kind luck, especially when you are feeling low, here to support if you want to get any thoughts in the open. xx
