Congratulations on all of the BFP!!

not much to report, on the boring part at the moment cd7 waiting to ovulate, I turn 35 tomorrow I read somewhere that our bodies change every seven years, so my thinking is that my body should change tomorrow and gives me more of a chance of conceiving this month, right??!!!

Yokyil · 08/04/2015 21:39

Ta juggling last night of eating 'normal' food/drink before it's back onto the TTC food/decaf tea etc --Easter egg and a cuppa for supper! Can't beat it Grin
How're you feeling missmrs?

Woolly84 · 08/04/2015 21:58

Yes rainy this is totally prime time for you - now go grab that BFP! Grin and happy birthday for tomorrow! Anything nice planned?

yokyil your supper sounds awesome! Hope the headache gets better soon

Yokyil · 08/04/2015 21:59

Doubt chocolate will help wolly but don't give a stuff Wink yes happy b'day rainy have a great day Wine

Woolly84 · 08/04/2015 22:02

Chocolate never does any harm though yokyil Wink

MistletoeBUTNOwine · 08/04/2015 22:10

Evening all.
Congrats to bfps Smile
Anyone due to test soon? I am on Friday (after my silly early bfn on Sunday Blush)
Been trying not to symptom spot, but:
I cried today
Strange rash on back
Runny nose

Could all be due to a crappy cold I've had for last 10 days but I'm being wildly optimistic!!

Anyone else got any weird symptoms?

MissMrsMummy · 08/04/2015 22:24

rainy I like your thinking! There is something in that, though - I had a skin condition for 7 years then it disappeared!

yokyil I'm ok thank you Smile feeling positive. Hope you're ok too?

mistletoe like the symptoms! When I had my bfp I had a scratchy sore throat!

Yokyil · 08/04/2015 22:36

Yep missmrs not too bad...can't wait to kick start this cycle and do everything we can Wink and hopefully get some good news the start of May!fx
Good luck mistletoe hopefully that's some promising signs

Southy84 · 08/04/2015 22:49

abi fantastic news on your bfp in so pleased for you! And really nice to hear a bfn story that turned into a bfp :) really made me smile, congratulations.

Congrats tallulah on your bfp too, you lucky thing :)

Edinburgh is so lovely, felt like a summers day! wooley I definitely recommend visiting.

juney tripping over a cup of sperm that made me smile

I may have bought some morrisons pregnancy tests in case I don't get AF... I will test again Friday morning I've decided. If AF arrives before then the tests go into the cupboard until next time!

Sparkly123 · 09/04/2015 00:41

Argh I missed all four pages of today!

Congrats to BFPs! Abi and Tallula right?

Mary glad to hear from you lovely. Sending Flowers to you

Missmrs brill to hear you are recovering and that you are back in the saddle! Good girl. Sending lots of positive thoughts your way Star

Rainy happy birthday to ya! happy birthday to ya! Happy birthddddaaaaayyyy! Yes! 35. It's the one. Go for it! This is your lucky year for sure ! Have a great day Cake obviously update us all on your cake of choice.. You know we love a slice of whole cake over here!

Yokyill ha ha love your supper! Good luck on the TTC diet from tomorrow here's hoping you don't come across another egg that has to be used up first hope headache gets better Flowers put the chocolate down step away from the chocolate

Mistletoe fingers crossed for you! I'm Saturday I think so we are kinda cycle buddies! Although I'm spotting so mine would be a miracle BFP I expect a miracle

Glad you are enjoying Edinburgh Southy ! Do you like Thai food? My favourite Thai restaurant is there! We go all the time Grin

Sparkly123 · 09/04/2015 01:08

Woolly thanks for such kind words. I keep telling myself that.. Spotting with BFP over and over! but, I'm still kinda downhearted and ready to move to next cycle already. I swing between looking at the positives and that I'm another month closer etc etc to eh just pure disappointment! But I think that's natural and I'll be fine. Thank you so much for being lovely! Flowers hope your headache is better now!!

Juney love, miss your banter! Are you feeling less stressed the boys ain't in the hands of the dreaded DHL this cycle ?!

Dizzymerry hi lovely. Hope you get blood results Tomor. Fingers crossed!!!

mumof1 upduffing hol sounds good .. So all of us, together with our dh right?! Ha ha Grin

Boris so sorry you sound so deflated lovely. You are so much closer now.. You have come so far..you are obviously determined to be a mumma. Yes the months have passed, and I know every month feels like an eternity when you want something so much. But you are almost there. You will absolutely get there. I understand the waiting is hellish. I also can't for the life of me get my head round not thinking about TTC. It's pretty much impossible. Yes you can be distracted by other areas in your life from time to time, other things happen in the day, good or bad, but it is always there in the background. Always. And I think you are, like the rest of us doing the absolute best you can.relax and it will happen- that's not really an option is it? Even after a month of trying you are not relaxed. You want it and you want it now. Don't feel bad for that. Just keep focused on the end point. It will come. You will get your BFP and it will be oh so glorioussss!! Please don't give yourself a hard time, I'm sure you are an amazing friend, wife and look- if you were doing a shit job, your boss would fire you right? You are feeling so low because of this hole.. Which will be filled. It's so draining but I know you won't give up and your BFP is coming, you are going to be the one giving us your stats soon! Stay strong. Star

coffeenut · 09/04/2015 02:29

Congrats on the line tallula Smile. Im glad it was easy for you this time, I hope you have a healthy pregnancy Flowers

Yes "former" malibu, but like you say, will always live with the headfuck.

boris sorry youre feeling low, I hope youre okay & sparkly is right (& said it so much better than i could Flowers)

the upduff holiday is starting to sound a little like one of those swedish midnight sauna parties that Ive < ahem > heard about Grin

aux you make me laugh

Havent read back properly, have just skimmed but will catch up later x

Illiria · 09/04/2015 04:40

Tallulah congrats on your bfp

Southy - we lived in the 'burgh prior to moving here. Oddly I miss the har

Woolly - I am fine boobs still hurt and I got what I think is an evap this morning. Nothing this morning but when I came back from work line was there.

On a positive note my clinic have ordered day 21 blood test for me so I can do that next cycle, though if they hadn't taken a week to get back to me earlier I could have done it this cycle. No day 3 test, is that odd?

nightandthelight · 09/04/2015 06:41

Happy birthday Rainy! Cake

MalibuDaisy · 09/04/2015 07:48

Coffee that's it exactly. Some everyday stuff that is easy and doesn't require any thought for the rest of the populace is always going to be that bit harder for those of us who've had an ED, but we keep buggering on :)

Tallulah I think your BFP is lovely news, don't worry if people feel they can't be 100% supportive - everyone is fighting their own battles on here. I always like to come on and read about a BFP, regardless of whose it is - that said, if I found out that a close friend or family member got pregnant my first reaction would probably be a sharp intake of breath and the thought that "Oh God they beat me to it, that should be me! Argh!!" Completely illogical, I know. But as I say, we're all different.

It's a lovely sunny day so I do hope that everyone who was feeling low yesterday (me included!) has a better day.

Just a quick q - where is the best place to buy a thermometer for the whole temping lark? As DH is away for most of next week I thought I might try to break it in without him thinking it's weird (so that I'm an old hand at it for the following month!) x

nightandthelight · 09/04/2015 08:01

Babymad from Amazon appears to be the fave Malibu!

MalibuDaisy · 09/04/2015 08:33

Awesome, thanks night :) Off to order one! x

nightandthelight · 09/04/2015 08:35

Mine arrived the next day! Fx it helps :)

Southy84 · 09/04/2015 08:49

AF is starting, knew I shouldn't have bought those tests grrr.

I've just read a story about a young girl who died from cervical cancer, literally sat crying to myself, life is cruel. Today I will be grateful for what I have, I won't be able to stop thinking about my much longer for baby but I will however see the other positives in my life.

sending Flowers and hugs to those of you who are also having tough times.

illiria have you had day 3 bloods before? I'm sure a few years ago when I went through blood tests I had to have a couple of gos at the day 21 bloods because it didn't pick up what it should have on the first cycle, but did on the second go.

Southy84 · 09/04/2015 08:50

longed for stupid predictive txt...

DizzyNorthernBird · 09/04/2015 08:51

night just remembered I have new stats for you!

###35, ttc#1, cycle 5, bfp due 10th May###

nightandthelight · 09/04/2015 08:55

Thanks Dizzy will update this evening :)

So sorry for AF Southy Flowers Desperately sad about the young girl, we are the lucky ones just to be alive!

Southy84 · 09/04/2015 09:14

We are night, it doesn't make the journey easier but when reading things like that makes me think at least our journey will lead to a happy outcome, and if not naturally I think we will adopt.
