Hoping for a positive November!

AF arrived this morning, CD34. Probably won't be a +ive november for me either as DH is going away for 2 months sometime later this month, so he probably won't be here for my fertile window, but ya never know (in the army the dates for things change all the time, so gotta keep hoping). Will keep using my Persona this month just in case we can fit one or two BDs in at the right time.

Hey Everyone. Good luck with the testing, bding and 2ww.

d2b so pleased you are back xxx Sorry about your earlier miscarriage. Having never been in your place I can only imaginge how very tough that must be. Sorry to hear things have been difficult but it sounds like you spent some good quality time together and I am so pleased you were able to talk and move towards getting back on track. I put my dh under pressure for bd and that really backfired It must be hard to have a due date hugs Hope everything is going to work out ok xxx

Hi RachelRose I am sorry for your loss I have no experience so can't really find the words but big hug xxx
Anywhere north of the M25 is a bit cold for me but I love kids so will make the most of Mull! Mrs MC I am terrible with Whisky but used to work for Diageo installing IT in the distilleries so am a Whisky expert. We get the ferry from Oban and it's an adventure for us townies. I am a gold tequilla bunny. One of the only people I know who is only good on tequilla!

Hi Firstar. I am with you on reducing the OPKs. I

just wanted to see if I got the LH surge. A fact

finding mission. Mentioned the positive tests to

dh and became a bit of a ttc monster which was

very counter productive. I regret telling him,

won't bother testing next month and will opt for the spontaneity of it all.

Ready and MrsMC I am lucky in the PIL dept in that they are all too busy. However am slighty regretting telling too many mates we might be ttc as now we get comments all the time... you just got married so when are you thinking of trying... blah... blah and its hard not to lie, not be honest and not to avoid!

Hey greedy I agree its good to be positive. Soon we will have lots of festive fluff to keep us busy in between.

We have been away for the weekend and missed

chatting. I went a dinner dance with not one but 2

of my pregnant mates and once I had goten over the

feelings of wishing to be in their place I really

enjoyed myself. I mentioned before that my friend

having her 4th pregnancy is suffering from a v. diff pregnancy with antenatal depression and is only just telling us after 20 weeks. She is getting help and it is rare so it was nice to help out and chat with her.

Happy Sunday everyone

PS: Has anyone tried to e-mail MN before? I am up for a festive icon petition

Oops PC crashed too much clicking sorry

RachelRose · 13/11/2006 08:19

Hi ladies! Greedy, how was you night of BD passion?

Hi Cityangel, Good to hear you enjoyed the dinner dance - Sounds fab!! Sorry to hear about your mate with the depression - that must be awful. I hope she starts to feel better soon. Is she more like to suffer from post-natal depression?

No AF yet and I have a feeling I may be PG - wierd sensations in (.)(.) and slight pains in my stomach - not like AF cramps though. Also temp is at an all time high today (37 degrees). I could be completely wrong, but may test later today to know either way. AF was a week late last time, so it may just be late again.

bubble78 · 13/11/2006 09:29

well still no AF this morning

but i am getting funny tummy pains a bit like AF cramps cant remember if i got them when pregnant with ryan did anyone else still get the cramps when AF was due but then was actually pregnant?

Bodkin · 13/11/2006 09:56

Bodkin lurking with baited breath to hear news on Rachelrose and Bubble!!! Hoping hoping hoping it is good news for both of you.

Hi to everyone else - hope you all had good weekends.

Greedyguzzler - can I just say your posts crack me up! Very entertaining indeed.

Extra portions of baby dust all round xxx

RachelRose · 13/11/2006 10:26

Hey Bodkin, how is your pregnancy going? Are you still feeling good? Really really hope so!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 12:11

oohh so exciting - hope you give us all a bit of joy with BFPs RachelRose and Bubble. RachelRose - if you get your BFP, I'll need to meet you for coffee at least 3 times a week to try and catch your vibe!

Greedy - PMSL at your DH sprucing up! Hope you got lucky. DH was too tried, began but give up - do you think I just leave that off my chart all together due to "no cigar"!?

Cityangel - tequilla - eeeeeeeeughhh!

Babydust to all ................................

RachelRose · 13/11/2006 12:18

Hi, I tested (couldn't resist), and used a cheapy superdrug one. Got the smallest, tiniest, feigntest blue line in the pregant window - but am not convinced. I almost need a second opinion but as I'm at work I dont think thats appropriate

I'm just going to have to wait another couple of days and try again (unless AF arrives)...

RachelRose · 13/11/2006 12:21

MrsMc - at the 'no cigar' comment. I know the actual subject is not amusing but your desciption made me giggle!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 12:35

oh Rachel - if I was in town, I'd run up and analyse with you but I'm at home! You know what they say though, a line's a line, everything crossed for you. It would be so wonderful for you to be pregnant, you so deserve it

Bodkin · 13/11/2006 12:40

Bodkin lets out muffled and barely contained squeak of excitement for Rachelrose...

Thanks for asking - am feeling fine! No sickness so far (didn't suffer last time either, so maybe I am one of the lucky ones) and don't feel too tired yet. that will probably kick in in a couple of weeks I expect.

at "no cigar" MrsMcJnr. Hope things are going well for you. I read about your poor DH's back. Hope that doesn't put the kybosh on things for you for too long, or maybe you'll get BFP before anyway!

Bubble - can recommend the cheap ebay tests. Next day delivery too!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 12:42

Hi Bodkin, glad you are doing well! I'm trying to be really positive about things because a BFP would do us wonders this cycle but hey ho, it's down to fate, 6/12 is my next testing date providing AF does not turn up before that.

sideways · 13/11/2006 12:46

ooh rachel - sounds very positive, fingers crossed for your next test

bubble - hope af stays away for you too

ready4motherhood · 13/11/2006 14:05

RachelRose - At the risk of giving a suggestion against my rule of not testing before a week after AF due ... since you got a faint line, perhaps you should test first thing in the morning??? The fact that your temp is high is a really good sign. My temp dropped big time a couple of days before AF arrived!! Ooooh, so excited and eager to hear from you. Sorry

MrsMc - LOL at your pre emptive request at meeting for lunch to bathe in baby hormones how far is Manchester to Edinburgh??

Hope AF stays away for you too Bubble!!

Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting!!!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 14:17

Firststar - hope you get your BFP on Friday! Fingers crossed!

greedyguzzler · 13/11/2006 14:49

OMG OMG OMG!!!!! its all happening on here isnt it!!!!! not 1, but 2 'almost, maybe, could be, possible' BFPs. AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH! i love all this i am almost as excited as if it were me! just test again you 2!!!!! i would!

and only till fri to wait for you firststar.....exciting too!

bodkin.....i had a little read of the 'due in july' thread, wishing i was on there, and it made me cry!!!!! how sad am i hey! i only cried cos it is so lovely to have all these excited pg women chatting together with little babies in their tums! congrats again! it makes me want it even more!

my BDing was a success! not v. romantic (down to me i think!) cos my first comment when i got into the bedroom and saw my DH waiting on the bed was 'god, im full of farts today!' but i was! and they do say 'honesty is the best policy!' anyway, i might have ruined the moment a bit, but he still performed, so thats all that matters! still no +ve opk though so could all be wasted!

RachelRose · 13/11/2006 15:00

Hee hee - Greedy!!! Being full of farts is not particularly romantic in its own right but talking about is even worse!!! - At least he was fore-warned in case something sneaked out in all the BD excitement. At least the deed was done - What CD are you on?

I'm going to buy another test and will do it tomorrow morning I may even splash out and go digital.

greedyguzzler · 13/11/2006 15:18

you are very restrained RR - i would have tested about a million times by now! good luck!
i am on CD 16 and i THINK i normally ov around cd17 or 18(i did last month anyway). im not getting much CM though, although DH did tell me i was 'nice and slimy!' last night, so i guess there must be some! sorry....that was really a bit too graphic wasnt it!
how long have you been ttc this time? how about you bubble....how long have you been ttc? not that its a competition or anything!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 15:23

Rachel - yup, go digital! I am in town from 8.15 if you need a coffee (or caffiene free herbal tea!)

Greedy - you have got me laughing out loud again I can't read the ante-natal threads. I have told myself it is forbidden fruit and much as I'd like to chat and hear all about my friends from here who have crossed to where the grass is greener, I know that it would be very bad for me to go there.

So all you ladies who leave for pastures new with a BFP PLEASE come back and visit and tell us how you are getting on, we do want to hear!!

MrsMcJnr · 13/11/2006 15:24

Greedy - ending myself again here you and your DH are so romantic!!!

ready4motherhood · 13/11/2006 15:45

pmsl at greedyguzzler and the graphic descriptions... farts et al!! You've made my day!!
