Congratulations calm :)

Thank you everyone for your congratz and if you.dont.mind.i.might just.hover around to see how your all getting on :)

You have all been lovely, i hope.the people over at the pg threads are just as welcoming :)

Fx for you all

Hai1988 · 01/11/2012 08:23

sparkle dont feel bad its to easy to get obssessed with ttc, trust me weve all done it at some point.

Dh attually said after the.inital shock of the bfp "woo hoo presure free sex atlast" and i.didnt think i was putting pressure on.him, so its easily done, just try not to worry to much :)

MadeInChinaBaby · 01/11/2012 08:24

Congratulations to all those getting BFPs! Thanks FX for smooth pregnancies for you all.

So, yesterday was the due date for the pregnancy I lost back in June, and this morning I got a -ive. Sad It's just not my month. I'm feeling pretty low and DH is in bed with a 'headache' (public holiday here). TBH I feel like giving up - we have one very special DS already and he's truly the light of my life. I don't want to get depressed every month - he deserves better than than.

Calmisthemantra · 01/11/2012 08:37

Sorry to hear the madein I know it's easy to say but what about trying to forget about ttc and going with the flow. Fx crossed for you soon.

I'll also be keeping an eye on this thread but heading over to July 2013 antenatal club. Hope to see you all there

chookford · 01/11/2012 08:43

calm congrats that is great news!!!

China so sorry to hear that, give yourself some time to grieve for your lost bubba and maybe take a break for a month and see how you feel after that.... Wish you lots of luck in what ever you decide x

littlepinkfizz · 01/11/2012 08:47

So sorry china < hugs> know how you feel having had 3 mc. Don't give up yet. Give yourself time and you will see things as they are.

Congrats to calm! This is a great month already! Planning to test on Wednesday. AF due fri but not hopeful as this is 4 th cycle post mc and I just get more pessimistic as time goes on. Never had any symptoms other than sore boobs with any pregnancy but since last mc have had tender boobs on and off all through my cycle...

Happy November fellow passengers! Grin

deliasmithy · 01/11/2012 08:58

rock TTC our first. I doubt there is any upduffedness abut my situ, which I'm ok with, just keen to get an AF and use every method going, yep, I'm going for the full on crazy behaviour!

It's very sad to hear some other posters journeys, no one seems to talk as much about the ups and downs of TTC in RL. I think I was a bit naive...

chocolateteabag · 01/11/2012 09:19

Happy November everyone!

Delia - I found that after I told everyone I was pg with DS, more people spoke about their own experiences. It's so strange that most women want children but we don't talk openly about ttc.

I'm 8DPO and have had to get DP to hide the tests as so tempted to waste use one

TakingTheStairs · 01/11/2012 09:41

Sanyu and DeliaSmithy* welcome to the bus.

Congrats calm! I also suffered badly from spd, still have problems with left hip and ds is 16 months old. Worry about coping with him as we dont have much family close by for help. Hoping knowing more about managing it will keep me more mobile...

Angie607 · 01/11/2012 11:18

Morning all, heads pounding thismorning so I'm laid on the sofa feeling a bit sorry for myself but hoping its a good sign as got a lot of migraines when pg with dd.

weechops · 01/11/2012 11:24

< waves madly back at taking >

I have nooo clue what's going on with my body! On cd31 and no af and bfn. Well, 2 days ago it was bfn and I didn't test yesterday as I felt as if af was coming. (and had no tests anyway)

I didn't get a smiley on the opk this month so assumed I didn't ov, but a few girls have said the surge is easy to miss, so who knows?

If I really want to torture myself - my boobs are a bit sore when I prod them.

Gah! What now? I bought a cheapy asda test this morning but (really not like me) I don't want to test! Don't really want another bfn, just want af to show up and then bugger off again so we can try in November.

Anyway, enough of the poor me, how is taking?

And congrats to the first lot of November bfp's :)

chookford · 01/11/2012 11:39

taking boooooo hissssssssss!!!! So sorry my lovely I will make you the cake of your choice today to make you feel a tiny bit better?! And you do still have a chance of a late Nov bfp I am sending positive vibes your way!! X

TakingTheStairs · 01/11/2012 12:09

Boo weechops, your body is being mean to you. Hold on to that test and if no sign of AF by tomorrow morning, then I think you should test again. It would be nice if your body would let you know one way or the other so at least you can get on with things.
I am fine thanks, apart from AF arriving this morning. Feeling a bit down but in a way, the fact that it still might happen in Nov makes it not so hard to swallow iykwim. Doesn't feel as long to wait (even though it's the same amount of time as normal!) But would loved to have been able to announce almost 12 wk pregnancy at Christmas to the family .. ah well.

Thanks chookford, you're a pet. Can I please have some banana and walnut bread if you have the ingredients in? I'll make the tea.

So sorry Taking have some of our extra halloween chocolates and tablet to make you feel better

Hello wee chops hope you get an answer soon to whats happening, I got weird cycles and once went 9 months without AF or a BFP so know how frustrating the not knowing can be.

I am about 1 dpo and for the first time ever (I think) I have post ovulation cramps is there even such a thing as post ovulation cramps? Putting it down to my Soy experiment only time will tell if its a good thing or not. So for now I am off to lurk in the middle of the bus with the kids haloween goodies, chocolate slugs for anybody??

TakingTheStairs · 01/11/2012 12:23

Thanks JellyCurls, I will have some chocolate and tablet too Grin

MadeInChinaBaby · 01/11/2012 13:02

Thanks Thanks for all your kind words Thanks

Taking, sorry it wasn't your month either.

I just want to have a good ol' cry about it all. Probably will once DS is in bed this evening. Feeling pretty premenstrual, actually. Pass the chocolates, would you?

weechops · 01/11/2012 13:15

taking sorry I must have missed part of your post. So sorry you got bfn :( But yay for the end of november!

madein so sorry for you too. Cuddling your little man will help you feel better sooner. Fx you get your bfp soon.

Morien · 01/11/2012 14:18

China, so sorry. Can't say I know how you feel as I haven't got there yet, but I lost a pregnancy in August and can't imagine how I'm going to feel on the due date (I'm hopeless at remembering dates normally, but that one I just can't seem to forget).

Taking - fx that November is your month after all.

I've been surprised too at how little ttc is talked about. It's too easy to assume that everything goes swimmingly for everyone else out there, and I don't think that's the case at all.

MadeInChinaBaby · 01/11/2012 15:17

Just been baking with DS. The kitchen is a total state as DS also 'washed' the pots and wiped down the surfaces ... we've retreated to the living room with big slabs of warm cake and mugs of cocoa... I've decided to leave the kitchen for DH. Grin

It's true that ttc and everything that goes with it are barely spoken about in RL. MN was a fantastic source of support for me at the time of the miscarriage.

Morien, the due date's been tough, and there was no way of me forgetting it with it being 31st Oct. I've felt like kicking down Halloween displays in the supermarket this year (but I didn't!). I guess in a week or two I'll start to feel a bit better again, and take it from there. FX you'll have another one on its way by the time yours comes around, or soon after.

Good luck to all of you testing soon. Xxx.

33PinkLadyApple · 01/11/2012 17:07

Congrats hai and calm

Birthday tomorrow. Should I test 2 days early? Got a pub session planned for saturday?!!! [eeek]
