TTC#1 - The difficult fifth thread: the one where we all get BFP!

[DulcetMoans]

Time to move over ladies. Would love to start this thread by announcing my BFP but unfortunately I can't because we all talk too much to get to test date!

All going for gold medals in baby-making and bound to get there soon, aren't we???

Thanks for updating list Lisa. Glad someone can sort us out.
Nic hope u ok hun.
Sorry for other bad news around as well.
I've not had af still. Not sure... Too scared to poas !

Nicola I read the news online this afternoon. My heart goes out to all your family. Can't imagine what you're all going through, especially his parents Xx

Thank you. Xx

Sorry about the weird cycles we have around here recently. Seems our bodies are all out to try us in one way or another. :-/

That is awful nicola. Such a shock even, impossible to prepare yourself for. Hope you are all ok.

Hey, I've not been online in a few days and WOW there's been a lot of posts! So sorry to hear that Nicola - I hope you're all okay, or as okay as you can be in the circumstances.

Well, still no AF (was due to come on 15th Aug, well, maybe the 13th) and got a BFN this morning. Trying not to stress. Much. Trying anyway!
I'm a teacher so we've been back at work this last week (I'm in Scotland) so that's kinda kept my mind occupied and off this TTC lark. I'm kinda wishing for AF to come now so that I know one way or the other. Was chatting to my friend who is a nurse and has one child and she was asking if I 'felt' any different? And I couldn't honestly answer her. I think I maybe do feel different, but maybe that's just my mind playing tricks on me. She also suggested maybe I ovulate later than the norm, so I could be pregnant but just not as far along as a test would pick up. Trying not to get my hope up, this being cycle 1 and all.

How's everyone else feeling?

Hi Nicola sorry to hear your sad news, my heart goes out to you and your family and Lisa no I don't think I'll poas tomorrow I think I'll do it Wednesday if AF isn't here by then, Hi to all the new people

Oh nicola how sad. My thoughts goes out to you and your family at this tragic time

Let's not kill the thread with my bad news.

Thank you for your kind words though.

Anyone else POAS in the near future?

Trying to decide when to start using the OPKs this month after last month's weirdness. Any thoughts?

Nicola I thought you was taking part in the cb trial? They say to start poas from day 6 (on the packet anyway)

Well it is my birthday and I feel a bit down about it really. Doesn't help that I'm still at work!

I think i started CD6 last time nicola, which is tomorrow for me so I'm back to POAS again!

Happy birthday Dulcet!

Ah, not read the instructions properly yet. Tomorrow it is then!

Hi I posted in another thread, but this one seems to be where you are all hiding!
I'm going to start TTC in the next few days! I go through fazes of being so excited then start thinking omg what am I doing! - is this normal? hopefully I will be poas with you lot soon!!!! - PS just read the rest of the thread and sorry for your news Nicola.

Happy birthday dulcet. Dont feel down
I'm getting into your crazy place last week nic. Bfn and no af. This wtf cycle is doing my head in already.

Hi Blockette

Welcome, and thank you.

Ahhh...nightmare Lol. Last week was hell for me. Fx you get an answer one way or another soon.

I get to do more POAS action from tomorrow :-) At least I should remember my sample if I'm also POAS. Remembering generally, for no reason, is just very hard.

happy birthday dulcet

WTF cycles all round this month! cd2 cycle 6 for me!

Thanks ladies. Happier now I am home. Going to put a nice dress on and go out!

Hi blockette, sorry if we escaped you. We got kicked off the other thread as it got full!

Happy birthday dulcet,

Hi all sorry I haven't been around much, have I missed anything any BFP

Nicola...soooo sorry to hear about your cousins little boy, that is awful news. How are you any way, how is your cycle going

Newbie has yours regulated its self

You've missed nothing, Roxy!

Not sure about my cycle, only on CD5, so we shall see. Get to use OPKs from tomorrow.

In other news, we just booked our honeymoon hotel in Reykjavik. We had booked another, but this was 300 quid cheaper, which is always a bonus.

Hi everyone. Naughty AFs all round still?
Happy birthday Dulcet , hope you have a lovely dinner.
Lisa, Would you mind updating me on the list please. I'm now cycle 5, BFP due circa 15th September. Fx I ov at a reasonable time this month!
X

Nicola great news on the honeymoon. More money to treat yourselves whilst you're away!
flutterbye I had that prob last month but it came in the end! Fx for you! Xx

Hi all :-)
Poas this morning and got Bfn and immediately as I wiped got AF :( most painful it's been in a long time as well but maybe that's not a bad thing because that's how it used to always be until I started getting the injection do it seems my cycle is getting back to normal a bit now, just needs to get a bit longer as been stuck in 25 days am I'm worried that's not long enough, hope you are all doing well.

25 should be OK if your luteal phase is long enough. Good you seem to be returning to normality.

Do you know when you ovulate?

Sorry for BFN.

love will update the list when I get on a computer as I can't do it from my phone.

Sorry for the bfn scarlet

Anyone seen newbie?

Nicola, that is horrific news, really awful. I can't even imagine how terrible your family must be feeling.

I'm off this month's list now - now on cycle 4 and going for a BFP around 16th September.

I feel a bit bad about posting this, but since finding out about my friend's pregnancy, I've started to panic a bit about TTC again. It took me a long time to decide to TTC in the first place (the idea of having children has always scared me a bit), but seeing my friend talking about her pregnancy and realising that she's going to have a real live baby has freaked me out a bit. When she announced it, her DP made a comment about the time being right, because they couldn't imagine living the life they are living now for the next 30 years, and now I just keep thinking, OMG, I don't feel that way AT ALL, my life is great now, if I lived it for the next 30 years I'd be very blessed...

I'm so confused. In some ways I was scared I would become TTC-obsessed when I came off the pill, but I'm not sure this is better. I don't think I deserve a BFP with thoughts like this :(

Lol, Newbie returned from a business trip into her new house yesterday...probably unpacking!

Purple, that is only natural. I regularly feel indecisive about it. But deep down I know we really want it.
