It was just a bit out of the blue wasn't it?

twinklestar2 · 04/02/2013 17:13

Very!

Doesn't she realise I'm bitter and twisted and hate people who get pregnant first month of trying?!

3 pregnancy related announcements today - one birth, one due and one miscarriage. Oh and a bump pic on FB. Can about one beat that?!

Funny story: went out on Sat night and OHs best friend was really sweet about the baby thing. He knows we are TTC. He told me to stop treating it like a science experiment and go right back to when we first met and couldn't keep our hands off each other and think about how we felt back then, etc.

Anyway it worked! We had a rather, ahem, vigorous dtd sesh yesterday! I actually broke my bracelet with all the passion going on Blush

Ooh lucky you winkle - sounds good!! Wink

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 04/02/2013 17:57

lll you should stay here. We are a lovely bunch (honest). Where are you on your cycle, is it dtd time or the dreaded 2ww.

Grin at winkles post.

red I think I will leave the sweeping desk stuff to winkle. My desk has a glass top which would be a bit nippy.

twinklestar2 · 04/02/2013 18:10

Hehe! If I get pregnant this cycle I'll have to name it Pandora after aforementioned bracelet!

I didn't even feel like responding to mrsb. Why do people do that? Join random threads and rub it in. Was tempted to post "good for you" my standard response to anyone in RL who tells me they fell in the first month.

Yay on the broken pandora bracelet winkle Spooky winkle but I had a similar chat with my mate today who told me the exact same thing. Don't use the sticks and temps as they take all the passion out of it.

So going to go for the just shagging thing this month with full on passion. Grin

The passion really can go. As we were march off to dtd upstairs (last week) I very nearly started chatting to dh, I was going to ask him how his mother was getting on looking after his doubly incontinent grandmother.

Thank god I realised what I was about to say and stopped myself.

fatasbutter · 04/02/2013 18:31

Pandora's a funny name for a boy tho... Grin

fatasbutter · 04/02/2013 18:32

Hi LLL welcome to the looney bin!! Wink

SunshineOutdoors · 04/02/2013 19:08

He he, was a bit like going on a dieting thread to announce that you're skinny!

Sorry, mrsb, don't mean to offend, congratulations to you and yes I would try the ante natal board.

We're not bitter on here at all! I got so pissed off at pregnancy announcements before I got bfp that even when dh told me about close friends of ours that I was happy for, my first response was to snap something like 'oh, them as well now' and was unable to hide my initial response. I think af had just come though so it's understandable.

I'm still being funny about 'announcing' my pregnancy. Just quietly telling people as and when I see them. I'm too aware that it's not always easy for others to hear.

SunshineOutdoors · 04/02/2013 19:10

Hi lll

I'm one of the thread graduates but we still keep coming back here as everyone's so nice. In fact, I think a lot of us are here more than the grads thread.

winkle as always am thinking about you and hoping for you this cycle.

SunshineOutdoors · 04/02/2013 19:19

fatas how are you?

fatasbutter · 04/02/2013 19:52

Hi sunshine I'm ok I guess. One minute really sad and the next hopeful before I remember that it's ridiculous to even be contemplating hope in this situation. Still another 6 days til the final scan then I can get booked in to have it all taken away and make a new start! Work was a bit of a struggle today too... Didn't want to take this week off as will prob be off most of next week if they can book me in ASAP for erpc Confused it fries your head just trying to think about it all.

Anyway! Enough me me me! Biscuit

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 04/02/2013 19:53

Another 6 days Sad hope it goes quickly for you.

fatasbutter · 04/02/2013 19:54

Eek! Mrsb has started a AIBU about us! Famous!! Shock

MrsBri · 04/02/2013 19:58

Ooh...de-lurks to say well done on the AIBU thread ladies! :-)

I'll wave pom poms with Kitten while I'm here!

I hope you get answers and can start to.move on quickly, fatas

fatasbutter · 04/02/2013 19:59

Hi nic - I'm sorry but now we are famous you can't just delurk willy nilly Wink
Just messing- thanks for the hugs

twinklestar2 · 04/02/2013 20:08

Can someone link to the AIBU thread?

weechops · 04/02/2013 20:11

Fatas just want to send you a big huge virtual hug. And I will gladly partake of your hot chocolate yum!

Sunshine I nearly spat my tea over the laptop reading your diet thread comment heehee :)

I've suddenly become loaded with the cold today and dh tried it on earlier. I said i feel shitty and can't get in the mood so he said I'll remind you of that if you have a cold when youre ovulating! Well obviously I would man up for that!

SunshineOutdoors · 04/02/2013 20:13

It's called 'to feel a little hurt'

I feel bad about what I wrote now, so I've put a little sorry on that AIBU. Although that place scares me, I'm worried about how I'll come across. I didn't want to make her feel bad but did feel like I wanted to discuss it with you guys as it was a bit of an out of the blue post. Maybe I should have pmed her instead of putting it on AIBU

twinklestar2 · 04/02/2013 20:16

I said sorry too!

I just read back - lol @ your story about Incontinent grans, when!

Aw fatas are you sure you shouldn't have a few days off to look after yourself?

SunshineOutdoors · 04/02/2013 20:24

Oh fatas that's really tough that you have more time before you know properly what's going on. Keep talking to us on here if you're feeling down. Are there people in rl who know what's going on who can support you? As well as your oh I mean? Sometimes a good chat in person with a friend and some cake can really help
