I get knocked down, but I'll get knocked up again, cos you're never gonna keep me down... The big fat posifrickintivity thread for people TTC after MC.

[SaggyOldClothCatPuss]

I thought I'd start the new thread and earn some brownie points with the posifrickintivity Gods...

Dearlydepartedmrsfinch, I am also on day 30 of the WTF cycle, and also driving myself demented. We have dtd precisely once since MC, so it's extremely unlikely that I'm pregnant... But of course I can't help hoping. Too nervous to POAS as would be gutted if it was a BFN and terrified if it was a BFP. Yep, I really need a slap!

We have decided to remember our baby by sponsoring a child through Plan. I think it's going to give me a lot of comfort.

Off on a night away tomorrow which I'm really looking forward to. Though won't be terribly romantic as we will have a small ginger room mate in the form of DS .

Plan is a good idea, Bunty. I have no hope of BFP this cycle as DH and I are currently at a bit of a stalemate over TTC. He wants to wait. I don't. It's crap. So, I am taking off the pressure completely until the first AF is out of the way before stating my case seducing him.

Your small ginger room mate made me chuckle

Um, late Friday offering here... BFP!!

I am beyond shocked. Over the moon, a bit terrified, really sorry for jumping the queue, and shocked.

DearlyDepartedMrsFinch, I am so sorry about your stalemate and am keeping everything crossed for you at your DH just needs a bit of time (a very little bit!)

Congratulations Bakingbunty! It's about time we had some good news on this thread.

Congrats bunty!

Bfn here this morning just so rubbish!!

bakingbunty. Congrats on your BFP. Great news

dearlydeparted Hope your stalemate ends soon. DP sounds like he just needs some time.

flowerot June is the big month for BFP on this thread so keep positive.

Yay!! Congrats bakingbunty! Just what this thread needed a good BFP

Congrats Baking

I too have a BFP although its not looking good...I only came off my period yesterday Ive posted a thread about it. Have any of you ladies experienced this?

x

overanxious just had a look at other thread. I would give the gp a call and get some guidance. Probably a chemical - I do know an obs consultants who cancelled her own scan because she had such a heavy bleed early on that pregnancy is now walking about. Best to get some bloods done and see what's happening. Good luck to you.

Afternoon folks.

Congratulations Bunty - fab news. And it does give the thread a much-needed boost to hear.

Overanxious - no advice to give at all but hope you get things sorted soon.

DDMF - I also love house hunting. We're not really quite ready to buy yet as ours isn't even on the market and we've stuff to do to it before we could put it on. Plus we both need to get jobs where we're relocating to so its kind of a medium-term plan (we're moving back 'home' so we're near our parents for if when we actually manage to start a family). I'm kind of dreading the whole thing to be honest - but at least nosing around other people's homes is always fun! I saw one yesterday we probably would be happy buying, and it was within our price range, so that was fairly positive so early on. I find being a grown up a bit of a headache still despite being 31.

Sorry about the BFN Floweroct*. How many dpo are you?

Rainbow you are not alone on the less sane side. I'm right there with you. Am symptom spotting like a crazy lady. Interpreting everything as 'something'; I even had the thought at approx 4:30pm on Friday off 'ooooo, I'm tired and craving chocolate, could it be...' before realising thats just me every Friday. Also had a random 'I just really want a baby' sob in the car yesterday. Totally came out of nowhere in an otherwise nice day so I fear it is a sign of impending AF. Is anyone else at their most susceptible to a proper full-on sob while driving?

Also thinking of you tins. Hope you're being looked after. xxx

Congratulations bakingbunty really fab news.
Guff are you going to poas? Fingers crossed for a second BFP.
Hope you're coping bakingtins it must still feel very raw.
Hope everyone enjoying the bank hol.
I'm cd 15 & got +ve opk today so soon to start the dreaded 2ww. Have got quite a lot of nice things going on so hopefully it will go fast & maybe I can add an extra BFP to the June tally...

Thanks all for the congrats. Hasn't really sunk in yet and I am terrified. But very happy and grateful, and wishing you all BFPs very soon.

Wow, bunty

Congrats bunty!

Congrats bunty fab news

Been away a bit been driving over to France - arrived this afternoon - lovely to get away but dd is not well so taking her to doctor tomorrow

Anyway question for you all - obviously I was dtd when OV this month - I'm also as fat as a cat after 2 mc and comfort eating .... I want to go for a run while I'm in the countryside .... Haven't run for ages ... Would running for a 20 mins a day affect possibility of pregnancy? Am I being very obsessed?

FYI ill be awaiting AF next Monday .... Anyone else POAS next Friday/weekend? Xxx

Emki I doubt running will make any difference, will prob make you feel relaxed and healthy! I don't think it's very easy to dislodge a healthy pregnancy (fingers crossed).

No AF here yet, but my cycle is probably still all over the place so don't think that means much. Going to hold out POAS as long as possible, luckily our local chemists will be shut here tomorrow so that forces me to wait at least another day. So silly I just feel so scared to find out.

Thank you guff I know you are right x

Good luck to you - hope you have a good bank holiday and thanks for the advice - ill go out in the morning xxxx

Thanks for the good luck. Think I definitely need it! I'm just stuck in limbo land.

I bought CB digitals earlier as I just had to see and it came up pregnant straight away, 2-3 weeks. I was expecting 1-2 to be honest. I don't know what to think, waiting until Tues am when I can book in at Drs! I was thinking it's a chemical pregnancy but everything I've read on them refers to 'faint positive before period that disappears' cant find much on 'strongish bfp AFTER period'.

Have spent most of the day googling!

Sending lots of luck to everybody else.

I think implantation bleeding can be fairly heavy lovely, fingers crossed its something like that!

I had a chemical pg about 2 years ago and I had a digi come up as 1-2 weeks, then later the same day came up as not pg. I then started bleeding that night.

However, to look on the negative side, if you we're a couple of weeks along, the hormones may be in your system for a bit longer. I reckon only blood work will give you a definitive answer... Xxx

Over you need to do another CB in a week or so. If the numbers go down its not good. I reckon it's just implantation. I have a good feeling about you!

over really hope it was implantation bleeding. I once read that it can happen in up to a third of pregnancies.
guff maybe we'll have some gd news from you. I also have little resistance to testing when there are hpts in the house (I have a similar problem with chocolate [smile)

Thanks for the positivity everyone. Will keep you updated. x

Morning all, hope you're all looking forward to a nice bank holiday

guff I think that being fit and healthy when you get pregnant can only be a good thing. I ran loads before and during my pregnancy with DS, it helped keep me sane and also had the advantage of meaning I could eat more ice cream (I like it so much that I pretended it was a full on craving for 9 months )

over I'm keeping everything crossed for you. Hope you have a good GP? Or do you have any friends who are doctors, nurses, midwives that you could speak to?

Bakingbunting congratulations! Great to see some good news. Hope you're keeping well.

Overanxious hope you get some clarity soon.

DDMF hopefully your DH just needs some time. The wind chime in the apple tree sounds lovely.

CamomileHoneyVanilla we moved to Grownupsville a couple of years ago. I still miss the days of not having to be ashamed of weeds in the garden, but being near family is lovely for DS. House-hunting is fun. Crazy symptom spotting is less fun but good to know others are a little crazy too!

I think I'd be testing every day until AF arrives if i had anymore HPTs!

Guff fingers crossed for you.

Hope its a sunny bank holiday for everyone.

Sorry for misspelling BakingBunty.
