MARCH BUZZ..Come and get thy babbies!

[PurdeyBirdie]

STATS LIST

Are you fed up of your glittering career? Do you want to destroy your sexual relationship with your uvver 'alf? Do you like to imagine the impossible, like conceiving on your first cycle? Do you like ferretting around in your cervix, hoping to find something resembling a bellend covered in snot? Are you, like, so over being slim and having pert tits? Then come and join us in trying to make a baby.

Glittery, that only makes you 9-11DPO, which is still pretty early. It definitely sounds like you have some symptoms of being PG, but as we all know, mother nature like to play with us sometimes.

I would say to keep testing. Do you temp at all? If so, are they still high?

FX for you!

Sounds like positive symptoms glittery fingers crossed for u. I especially like the veins on boobs one.

I actually prefer the idea of continuing a thread with us lot on, rather than a month by month one. I've moved onto April but if course I want to see what's going on until the end of March!

Marking place!

TTC#2, cycle2, BFP due 27/3

Very new to this, DS1 came without us even trying (sorry!).

Trying to use Ov sticks but they're confusing me.

I started temping but I had a heavy weekend so didn't bother Saturday/sunday and since.... I know I should've started again from Monday.

Thanks girls for replying. It's such a head fuck. Not even sure if the veins on the tits were there before either. gahhh

Hi JugglingMonkey!

what brand of OPK sticks are you using? Are your AF's regular?

don't be sorry about not trying for DS! x

Welcome dizzymerry

Southey, no it doesn't hurt, bit of a strange sensation but no pain

Purdey, yay, knew they'd love you. Think it's gonna be perfect for you.

Sparkly, sorry to hear about your Mum, hope she's feeling better soon xx

Ooh Glittery, good symptoms, keeping fx for you

Merry that's tough lovely. But a great outcome for you. And you clearly have such a strong relationship. I'm so glad you feel hopeful and that the cyst was gone. I have every faith you will get this BFP!

Pikz lucky 15 for you!!! Yes!!!

Nomio you know me.. I like to be optimistic.. I would be very excited about such a drop.. And hope for a rise Tomor! It's def possible for 5dpo implantation, I've heard that can happen. Fingers crossed lovely

Oh Purdey I'm overjoyed for you. So glad it went so well! You shall def not be bored it sounds great. Is the dh getting a night off from AI then?! Ha. Oh little Npants bday too! How exciting! I love that she already has the boys running after her, obviously... Joseph is such a lovely name, I like it a lot! Mamma bear is pretty bad still. She has antibiotics and to monitor things until back to the gp. It's hard going as I'm so drained myself but trying my best.

looks like I have found my new calculator!

Glittery great symptoms. I hope so much you get a BFP this cycle! I know it's so frustrating and it's hard to tell what's going on. Keep strong! Don't poas too early..try anyway!! Sending positive thoughts!!

My update is day 23, 7 dpo says FF. Not much in way of symptoms at all. Higher temps, really tired and lots of cm still. That's it! Always difficult for me as I feel so unwell a Lot of the time the fatigue could be easily related to that. I feel as the TWW is speeding up and I'm in the home stretch I'm getting more keen to Just know!! Ha. I must stay positive and stop doubting so much due to lack of symptoms!! Wotsits where's this device!! I'm not allowing sick leave ...!!

I am so tired I feel like I've been run over by a tractor and I feel sick. I want whatever the bloody hell this virus-thing is to show itself and/or stop mimicking pregnancy symptoms!

currently around 9dpo so can't test yet backs away from pee sticks

Yes glittery positive symptoms there. I had the blue veins. So exciting and I really hope you get your bpf. That goes for all you lovely ladies.

That must be difficult for you sparkly. I hope your mum gets well soon. My mum is currently in Canada visiting her parents as granddad is not too well. Fortunately they are a big family so manage between them but I can imagine how exhausted you must be. You are doing amazingly well

thanks sparkly, thank you gals. I cant wait to get home to bed.

really rooting for all of us - I really want a Christmas baby! that would be my dream xmas present. cor, got all teary then! x

Hello!

Just using the boots ones. Had two days of faint lines, now nothing. Ovia thought I'd ovulate around 8/9th but no clear positive result for ovulation.

AF is pretty regular, 27/38 day cycle.

Congrats purds all sounds very positive!

One week in my new job and I actually want to go in everyday. And sooo much less stress, hoping that helps with ttc :)

*27/28!

That sounds great, MrsB. Can you say what you do?

Knit/Glittery, those symptoms are sounding hopeful. I would so love it if lots of us got our BFPs this month & all had Christmas babies!

Although from a practical point of view, it would be a nightmare for us. We already have 3 family birthdays in Dec, plus Christmas.

juggling how long have you been using Ovia for? I used it for a few months but found its predictions to be way out! Had to start using opk's as soon as my cm became more fertile and kept testing until I got a positive or my cm dried up. If I'd relied on ovia alone i would have totally missed the boat. Opks can be tricky and take a couple of cycles to get used to!

Symptoms sound promising glittery, fx and for you too sparkly and knit!

Just managed to skim read this thread, I start reading then by the time ive finally caught up I see there is a new one!

Was due to meet my best friend tonight but she's cancelled and told me she's expecting #2 and feels rotten. Of course im pleased for her but I feel massively jealous and I hate feeling like this. She got pregnant first try for first and probably same again this time.

I know it's awful but I feel im withdrawing from my friends because I can't bear to hear baby news or be asked when im going to have one. Feel like it's restricting my life a little, dh has packed in smoking, ive pretty much given up alcohol and caffeine and cut down exercise just in case that's hindering our chances.

I dont know whether to tell my friend how shit im feeling or just continue to play along like everything is just fine

Sorry I feel like I only moan when I post, just don't know who else to talk to apart from dh and you lovely ladies know exactly how it feels.

5dpo for me, hoping but doubtful a bfp is coming my way

Oh beansprout I know how you feel. I've given up so many things I love (coffee, wine) and have put my marriage under a fair bit of strain. I love my friends but struggle that so many seem to get pregnant so easily. I could weep most days. If empathy us any help I have it in buckets. I've not told anyone we are ttc. I think only you can know if you tell your friend or not. Big hug.

Bean don't apologise to us for feeling like that, it's really tough when someone close to you gets exactly what you're longing for.

With regard to telling your friend, it's totally up to you. I have chosen not to tell my friend as I didn't want her to feel bad for talking about her pregnancy... However I now find myself avoiding her, so perhaps I should have just been honest with her. Xx

Awww bean :( it's so hard, and difficult to not pull away from friends. Really hope it's your month x

nomio I'm doing admin in a GP surgery. I'm only temp though, so do worry about what happens when I get a bfp, but they seem to want me to go perm, so fingers crossed. Its not exciting work at all, but they offer training and the people are nice. Compared to my other job, where I was having panic attacks about going to work, this is great. Helps pay the bills!

Ovia is crap about predicting ov, but I use it to keep track of my cycle. I'm going by OPKs and CM now.
