Hi ladies! I am 33 and have been trying to get preggars 6months now :( feels like forever. my partner has two children from prev relationship (marriage) and his ex fell pregnant straight away apparently, my younger sister-by 6 yrs is pregnant with her 2nd which happened 2 months into her relationship ! I have been really positive this month but my period is due wed and now i have brown spotting-meaning am out again. I guess i am just on a downer now... this sucks. I have a regular 28 day cycle and ovulate day 13 (opk) and have sex at least every other day! eating more healthily and tried fertilcm to help. I have worked with children for years and so long for my own. I am addicted to these threads and love how everyone is so supportive of one another! Fairy dust to us all!x

Good news Pallas! So when you tested before you went away it really was just too early.

SharyBobbins · 21/08/2015 19:42

Congratulations Pallas! Smile

Sunshinegirl2015 · 21/08/2015 22:06

Thanks everyone! How are you all getting along?

bananamonkey · 24/08/2015 09:59

After waiting all week AF arrived first night of our weekend away, typical! Oh well at least I could enjoy a cocktail and some wine seems to have disappeared now after 2 days Confused

Belgie · 24/08/2015 12:31

Hi there can I join? Smile

I'm in the same boat I think as many of you - 32 years old ttc for #1

Onto month 3 now of ttc but this month I am armed with Ovia and OPKs!

Who would have thought this can happen by accident!! Confused

Sizzle1981 · 25/08/2015 18:54

That sucks Banana! Hope you had a good weekend away regardless.
Welcome Belgie - yes it is so hard to believe people just accidentally get pregnant! All those yes of being so scared! Lol
I'm on cd 7 today and feeling very positive! This has to be the month! I turn 34 at the end of Sept (Shock) so really really want this BFP this cycle.

Hi how's everyone getting on? Congrats due to a couple of you! Not been on for ages. Did anyone get accepted onto the clearblue trial?

Sizzle1981 · 26/08/2015 19:59

My zero pack of the CB trial just arrived today Mrsstickll!
Are you on it?

mrsstickll · 27/08/2015 07:53

Sizzle1981, yes, stuff arriving on Tuesday hopefully

Sizzle1981 · 27/08/2015 21:19

The box is huge! OH laughed at how excited I was to get it!!

mrsstickll · 28/08/2015 08:50

I was hoping I might invoke the law of sod by signing up as I need to wait for next cycle, but then if I don't get a bfp at least I can console myself with free stuff lol

Sizzle1981 · 28/08/2015 17:59

My thoughts exactly!!!

Babycakes100 · 05/09/2015 20:15

Congrats Pallas! Sooo happy for you x
I haven't been on here in quite a while. How is everyone?

Sizzle1981 · 06/09/2015 17:39

AF is due next week for me. This cycle was skipped in the end so I'm anxious for it to come and go.
How about you Babycakes?

Sizzle1981 · 10/09/2015 18:22

How's the trial going Mrsstickll?

Usabrit · 10/09/2015 18:29

I am on month two of TTC think what added to stress last month was my so called friend told people ugh!

mrsstickll · 10/09/2015 19:43

It's ok I'm only on day 6, got to start testing tomorrow because my cycles are only 26 days, I've got used to having urine in my fridge I think lol, how about you? Have you started yet?

Sizzle1981 · 10/09/2015 22:41

I was half way through a cycle so they started me and a "zero" pack so I've just been collecting but no testing. AF is due Sat and my new pack arrives tomorrow so I'll be ready to go!!
I used to be a vet nurse so urine is not the worse thing I've seen in the fridge lol!
Fx for you!!!

Sizzle1981 · 10/09/2015 22:45

Also I've just spent the evening with my pregnant friend who is due on the 26th. Just had a my hand on her belly while the baby was moving all over. Just the most amazing feeling.
Fx we all get to feel it for ourselves very soon x

Belgie · 11/09/2015 07:20

1 day till Ovia says its test day but I don't have any symptoms and am convinced it hasn't worked again.

Did everything text book this month - including plotting everything with the OPKs

Tempted to leave it another week to test?! AF due Tuesday next week so I suppose you find out then anyway!!

Sizzle1981 · 12/09/2015 12:45

Oooo fx for you Belgie!!

Belgie · 12/09/2015 21:13

Sod's law - AF arrived today 3 days early urrgghhh it didn't work despite following the rules!

Month 4 coming up of ttc - let's see what else I can do?!
Sad to say I am becoming one of those people who looks at other people in the street and wonders how they cracked this?! Oh well where's the wine?!?!

Sizzle1981 · 13/09/2015 09:11

Flowers sorry Belgie xx Enjoy your wine for now. Fx for next month.
