Thanks SOL

Already constipated Jen - one of my first symptoms. Hooray! Who'd have thought I'd have ever welcomed constipation with such joy?

Got hold of my Mum. 'sit down', 'don't do too much', 'eat something'.

Ahhh. Her first grandchild!

Jenswish · 27/06/2006 13:15

Hopecat · 27/06/2006 13:21

It's called 'Trueline' - my local pharmacy stock it.

Sexonlegs · 27/06/2006 13:22

Oh Hopecat, LOL. Get drinking the old prune juice - that will sort you out!

bobblehead · 27/06/2006 13:22

Congratulations Hopecat!!!

MrsMcJnr · 27/06/2006 14:33

Hello! I'll join you for luck even though I have not got a clue what is happening with me! Before I went on the pill 18 years ago, I was never regular so it'll take me some time to work out my cycle but who knows, nature might find a way and I'll soak up some of your tips! Last pill was taken on 16/6 so may be a while until AF appears! Good luck to you all!

Natty1806 · 27/06/2006 14:44

How strange does that sound Hopecat - a mummy. LOL

I know as we are all ttc it should not sound weird but it does.

All the best to you.

Give us all the gossip then, how oftern did you bd, any special position? Legs in the air afterwards?

Diet???

At least you can leave the 100 days to be a twiglet thread, however if you want to stay on it to make sure the weight does not pile on, feel free we will keep an eye on you. x

Only joking, bet you have already left for the due in March thread.

Is this our first BFP in July??

Hopecat · 27/06/2006 14:59

lol Natty.

We Bded on: CD6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 & 18 (I think). Meant to keep going until CD22, but DH was poorly.

I have about 8 units of alcohol a week, and DH has about 12.

Loads of green leafy veg for me & loads of oysters and red meat for DH.

Not sure if it was due to any of this, but you asked! Also, BDed in the morning when we could face it.

As for weight, nausea's setting in already, so don't think that's be a problem for a while. Not nice, but a sign of a good strong pregnancy - I hope!

Hopecat · 27/06/2006 15:00

Oh, and doggy, legs in the air, pillow under the hips (afterwards) and lots of leg-wiggling which made DH laugh.

Hopecat · 27/06/2006 15:02

Got to go to work now. How will I concentrate?

Natty1806 · 27/06/2006 15:06

LOL

Will have to try to hip wiggle.

Thanks for being honest.

I best get on with some work too.

ShowOfHands · 27/06/2006 15:19

Very many congratulations to you Hopecat! That's fantastic news.

Decafgirl- it does seem like an age since those planning ahead threads. I think, like you, I naively thought that it would be a lot easier than it has been. I haven't bothered with temping or opks as I am still determined that I will not get that obsessive about it (who am I kidding?), at least not until 1yr of trying has passed. I think we have similar problems with lack of time/energy too. DH and I, him in particular, work ridiculous hours and any attempt at conception seems to be pushed far down the list of priorities after eating, sleeping and sitting down for five minutes together. Goodness knows how we intend to fit a child into all of this. Anyway, I'll hopefully be 'seeing' you around. Let's hope Hopecat's luck rubs off on us.

And hello and welcome MrsMcJnr! Get stuck in and best of luck!

coggy · 27/06/2006 15:25

Hopecat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Am uterly thrilled for you
I'm going to submit to the postive july thread as I am off to see the fert clinic next week ttc#3
This month am doing so many ridiculous things and obsessing about cm so figure a jolly thread is what I need!

peachygirl · 27/06/2006 16:25

WOW Hopecat what wonderful news, lots of luck for the next 9 months

wright4845 · 27/06/2006 16:28

well done you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's so exciting

pinkranger · 27/06/2006 16:39

{grin] to you hopecat.....

I am so pleased for you, you are not the 1st positve july - You should still be on the June thread!!!

I wish you both a happy and healthy 9 months xxx Its the most wonderful thing!

Now, i need the rest of you to tell me to stop obsessing and that i am not PG - (makes the blow softer when AF arrives) - I have 7-8 days until AF comes and i have had really bad stomach cramps, which does feel like period pain but it is very unusal for it to happen this early, Also have lower back pain/ache, had for a few days, this was my only sympton when i was preg with DS as i thought to start with that i had a kidney infection.... I have gone from really calm to madness in 48s , Even did a OV test yesterday to rule out the possibility of OV pains!!!!!! Dont want to get worked up about it so tell me to Sought myself out!!!

Also did it dogey on CD 17 Hc (TMI - Sorry )

Congratulations Hopecat!!!!!

Hello all - I am fairly new to MN but really wanted to join this thread. I had a miscarriage 2 months ago, at 8 weeks, and just got my AF on Sunday so am on CD2. (In fact it was after the mc that MN, and that particulr thread was recommended to me and I found it a real help to talk to other people in similar situations). I'm trying to not obsess too much about it all, both for normal reasons but also so I can better cope with dealing with the loss and pain of the mc. So I wasnt sure whether it was sensible to post, given how obsessed I can become about these things, but I also find myself looking at this thread lots and lots, so thought I might as well join you all on our journeys. So fingers (but not legs!) crossed for July, and for all of you too. Good luck to everyone, and congratulations again to Hopecat!!!

Beccy1974 · 27/06/2006 17:51
