Well, I thouht I'd better start this thread as I am CD1 of my 6th cycle of trying for our very precious first baby. This is going to be a lucky and positive thread, I can feel it so I'm laying down the babydust now so that as you join me, you can collect your dose .

For those who join me, what are you doing differently this cycle?

I think BoJingles is my cycle buddy 1n2s

Hope everyone is well today.

BoJingles · 04/12/2006 10:03

Yes it's me Greedy! Oh poor you, I do exactly the same if I've got any PT in the house I resist... resist.... and then got to use it!!! I used to get a free one in the first response pack and its just too tempting

Sounds like you had a very busy weekend Angel. Ours was hectice and I'm sure I've drunk the next 2wks worth of wine over a weekend, really must try and cut down again but I'll leave that for the detox in Jan

brandybutterapple · 04/12/2006 10:17

Hi Guys,

well a lot has happened this weekend... took me ages catching up. to all those with AF, but big to 3 weeks till Christmas!

Going to start big time BDing this week. DP banned from the bath.

Lovelybird hope that line is still there.
Have you done another test yet?

Loving the festive emoticons.

Impatience · 04/12/2006 10:35

Morning all, congrats again to the BFPers - I've lost track of everything including my own congratulating!

That was definately AF, despite all the umming and ahhing. Feeling rather miserable about it, so might be sulking in a corner rather than chatting away and taking the piss out of greedyforallthepies x Shall be popping in to see how it all unfolds though. Good luck all.

Beccarolloveragain · 04/12/2006 10:55

Im really scared to test - I dont feel instinctively lik I am where with the last 2 I just KNEW.

Im now on day 27 of a cycle which is normally 24 days so not ruling out that AF could actually still be around the corner

Dont know what to do

I think my wee smells stron
I have retched a few times
I feel hot

snowydays · 04/12/2006 11:09

Becca
If it is bad news you will get bucket loads of support from all of us.

If it is good news we'll be delighted for you.

Good luck!

RudolphsREADY · 04/12/2006 11:50

Morning ladies! I am soooooo festive and bouncy it is unreal. I don't know what is up with me!! But I much prefer this feeling to the latter part of last week!!

Sorry to all you lovely ladies that got AF - hugs for you all, but the good news is that you can still get that BFP in December!!

How many BFPs have we got then? I think I must have missed some, Impatience said BFPers... and now I feel RUDE for missing it (or forgetting, which is even WORSE!) Lovelybird and who???

Is it ungrateful of me to wish there was a christmas tree icon ?? Probably. But I do love these santa hatted smileys!! I have asked for a tree, as politely as I possibly could.

xcharlotte - how about xMASSYcharlotte ?? or if the x is supposed to signify a 'kiss' it could be xcharlotteUNDERtheMistletoe ??

FestivelyFrostyFloss - Frenzy? Me?? Yes, you are quite right!! How are you doing cycle buddy? All your symptoms sound promising!! Fingers crossed. When will you test?? I am going to wait 5 days if I can/need to.

FestiveFettle I am so sorry that I told you off for testing I have got such a bad reputation now! Loved baublyfettle too, both tres cool!!

Merry71 is brilliant!! Good luck with the test results today, thinking of you flower!!

Lovely story about your friend, Greedyformincepies! I am sorry for sounding like a broken record when it comes to testing early. I'm just thinking of you all! But I won't say it anymore

Sparklytreeangel - I was thinking OnceInRoyalDavid'sCITYAngel... tee hee. Just kidding. I love sparklytreeangel

Happy Birtday Becca - Have you tested yet?? You are overdue so I say go for it!! Finger crossed x

Well enough of my festive ramble [xmastree]

HUG (with a santa hat) Greedy. Oh darling, try not to get angry!

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 12:13

too late rudolph!!!!! my hormones are taking me over!!!!

RudolphsREADY · 04/12/2006 12:22

Well in that case, here is a punch bag - get it out of your system!!! Feel better soon honey!

Mirry71 · 04/12/2006 12:52

Oh Greedy poor you know exactly how you feel! Honestly - when I think of all those teachers in school who intimated that if you held hands with a boy you'd be up the duff then how do I find myself years on and not a BFP in sight.....!

Anyway went to docs. The tests came out fine for both of us so there is nothing obvious wrong. But she is referring us to the nearest infertility clinic as it has been so many months and nada. Curiously I feel more upbeat today as it means that at least we are doing something. (And of course I hope that miracles will happen before we get the referral which will prob not happen til the new year)

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 13:06

merry71 - so glad to hear nothing is wrong with either of you! you hear of so many people that relax once they have an appt booked at the fertility clinic and then fall pg before they even get to go! so good luck!

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 13:07

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 13:08

that last post was from my little boy. he is sitting on my lap and wanted to do a scarey face!

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 13:10

greedyformincepies · 04/12/2006 13:11

ok....he is getting the hang of this a bit too much. we have to go !!!!!

MrsMcClaus · 04/12/2006 13:25

Ladies, hello and happy 3 weeks until Christmas Day! I?m not too low, just a bit disappointed. I am catching up (slowly!) so I?ll do my responses in two bit so it?s not too long!

XCharlotte ? spotting is an odd thing, some cycles I get none, others I get it the day before AF, others still 2 days before AF ? no rhyme or reason! Glad you are feeling perky. One more chance this year for us

MrsHolly ? will give it another go. How are things has the old witch stayed away? Fingers crossed for you. I know exactly how you and Geek feel about daydreaming about telling your parents. I had it all planned Xmas Sad If I get my BFP on 31/12 , I?ll be at home with my folks and my grandparents will be there too (my parents live abroad). Might just have to tell them if I do. It?ll be 4th great grandchild and 3rd grandchild so I think it is ok to tell them too early, that said, it would be DPIL?s first so I?d wait until DFILs B?day at the end of Jan to be sure all is ok. Oh dreams, dreams

Liking the name FestiveFettle How?s the new house? Settling in well? Do you have a Drs appointment? but would you get a BFP in labour?! I did the tree last night and made my Christmas cake. It?s a Creole one so you soak the fruit in 5 types of booze before you cook it so there?s no need to feed it more afterwards. The outside decorations are on hold until the wind dies down or else mine might end up on Cityangel?s balcony! Though I start my new job on Monday, I am off from 22/12 to 9/1 I so need a holiday!

Mirry 71 ? Hello ? I like Merry for you! I was going to wish you luck but you beat me to it. So glad there is nothing wrong, great news, now you can concentrate on lifestyle and attitude. Hope your appointment comes in soon. Sending big hugs. As Greedy says, once is all it takes ? or so my Mum used to tell me!

Hello Greedy ? thanks for the happy story, how lovely for your friend, bet the little ones are adorable!! In some ways, it is good that AF was delayed a few days because that means action time is later than it would have been and my poor DH has suffered a set back, he is in terrible pain poor boy and can hardly move so we definitely won?t be BDing again for a while. My cat is limping today too, I?m trying to keep all my wounded in one room but the cat won?t play ball (understandably with a sore paw ) Now, where?s your positive attitude for yourself Greedy!! I really do believe you?ll be announcing a BFP in a few days. Hang on to all remaining tests! Fingers crossed. Like the Festive name!

Thanks Firststar, Babymad and Chooster, how are you all doing? Tell us, tell us!

BoJingles- I just couldn?t work it out! Clever disguise!

Sparklytreeangel ? liking the name! Glad the party went well!

MrsMcClaus · 04/12/2006 13:26

Hello FestiveFloss ? it did seem a bit of a bumper BFN weekend didn?t it? Xmas Sad is that just the almighty giving us Christmas to get a little sozzled before granting our wish do you think?! I saw in my calendar (a Spanish one) that 8/12 is the Immaculate Conception ? gosh, Mary didn?t have much time to prepare herself for the birth did she?!

Welcome Owlet ? nice to have you with us. Everything crossed for you. 13 is a lucky number in my family by the way! Have you been trying for a long time? Tell us all about you!

Happy Birthday Becca hope you get the best pressie of all today! We?ll be holding your hand when you test (the free one that is!)

Hello Uki ? long time no see, how are you? What?s new? I know what you mean, when we have our babies the time it took will seem like nothing at all but it feels like forever when you don?t know when they will arrive! I like your motto, mine would include, ?just so long as they do arrive?!

Hello Sparklybits ? like it ? ! I know how you feel, I depleted half my supply of pg tests yesterday! PMSL at life after 30 comment, certainly feels like it!

Hi Pinkranger ? glad to hear of DH?s commitment to the cause!

A Brandy Butter Apple sounds tasty! LOVE brandy butter though! Hope DH is allowed a shower after his BDing efforts!?

Hello Impatience ? oh hun, don?t stay away, we need you here and you need us too. I know exactly how you are feeling, truly I do

Hiya Rudolph?sReady ? keep that happy vibe all week and into next ok, don?t let is slip!!

pinkranger · 04/12/2006 13:36

Greedy - Sorry you feel so Frustrated at the moment - xx

Just quickly as at work ? Greedy, my twin don?t feel down ? it will happen

I?m whispering very quietly, but I think my temp has been up since Friday, with a very low dip on Wednesday, so fingers-crossed it stays up now, but now I?ve told you, it will no doubt dip again tomorrow, but I can hope! Boobs still sore and large ? what is that all about? Maybe it is being over 30!!

I?ll try and catch up with everyone properly this evening, if DH doesn?t complain too much!!

Take care all

pinkranger · 04/12/2006 14:07

ticklemepinkwithtinsel is GReat

Off to change it now!!

Thank you Sparklytreeangel xx
