Welcome to Bumsnet-home of talking crap, speculating about Blairgowrie & hopefully a few BFPs!

[Nomio230]

Whether you have just started trying or been at it for years. Using IVF, AI, or just good old fashioned shagging, all are welcome.

Come join our crazy bus of laughter, tears and friendship on our way to BFP land.

Hi Spinning yes I'm using the same clinic this time but it will probably be the last time as if it doesn't work I have a consultation with Gennet in September. Have a lovely time in London. Do you remember gillywillywoo? I often wonder how she got on.

Thanks to everyone else for the good wishes. Eekk hope this is it! Will keep you posted.

Wishing you lots of luck lucie.

How exciting spinning. Hope you have a fab time.

That sounds like the ultimate romantic weekend eskimo. Enjoy every moment of it.

Mummy hope you have a great time at the zoo.

Hope everyone else has lovely weekends planned. Not quite sure what we will be up to just yet but hoping to get out to enjoy the outdoors!

Thanks everyone! Mummy our anniversary is 25th August, but we're going to Italy on the 23rd, so won't be here for it. We had to use the voucher on or before our anniversary, so got it booked in for this weekend (after a bit of date counting and calendar work from me )

Have a nice birthday weekend mummy!

I'm going to London with spinning to meet up with some TTC chums from the early days! Eeek scary!!

I've kept my pregnancy totally off Facebook you'll be pleased to know. No scan or bump pics. This was done in case there are friends out there struggling with ttc and I know how painful it is to see announcements.

It's a difficult one, isn't it chops? I can totally understand people wanting to announce it on there, especially if they have family / friends who don't live nearby, but I can't help but feel that sometimes there is an element of 'bragging' to it...

That's why I like the 'blocking' element of FB, as it lets you pick and choose what you see and what you don't see. I'm not sure what I'll do if/when we are lucky enough to conceive, but I definitely wouldn't want to hurt anyone and I know at least two couple in RL who are on FB and who are struggling. I suppose that there is an option to choose who can see your status, so it works the other way round too!

eskimo Snap, that's our anniversary too

Chops That is really considerate. I have a cousin who never wanted kids, the met the man of her dreams and within a year of them meeting she has a little boy. I'm really please that she is so happy, but I do resent how easy it happened for her.

Have a lovely anniversary break eskimo weekend away and Italy - perfect!!

Thanks everyone! I love a zoo

Lucie, I remember the name but haven't seen her for ages. Fx you won't need the other clinic and this is your time.

Mummy, enjoy your birthday zoo day. We went to the zoo last week, always a lovely day out.

Positive opk yesterday and today, I don't usually get 2 days positive. Plenty of dtd here

Ooh Eskimo you're off to Italy! How exciting, I love it there, so beautiful and the food is amazing. Where are you going?

Eskimo where abouts in Italy. My sister lives in Milan. She's travelling back as we speak to stay with us this weekend

Spinning, Italy is my favourite country We try and go at least once a year as one of my best friends is Italian, so we go to Rome to visit her. This time, we're going to Molveno, which is near to the Italian Lakes but up in the mountains. I asked my friend where we could go that wasn't as busy as Lake Garda (which I went to a few years ago) and she suggested there. I'm quite excited, but can't find any guide books on it whatsoever, so it's going to be a bit of a mystery tour!

Beautician My friend is actually from Milan, but moved to Rome after meeting her husband.

Had my doctors appointment about the painful periods this morning and she's referred me to a gynaecologist for a pelvic ultrasound scan and also for another smear test to rule anything out. My last smear was about 18months ago and was fine.

I'm just so happy to be seeing someone as I had the painful periods when I was a teenager which was why I went on the pill. As my mum had endo and my sister has had ovarian cysts I'm just glad that if something is wrong I can hopefully get it sorted.

Very happy I got my peak on cb o test this morning though after eight flashing faces. Just bought a pineapple - going to eat that core haha!

Eskimo have fun in Italy!

Good luck spinningirl

Totally forgot to poas today. Cd11 so not long now until I ovulate! Dh performed ok until now. I get a bit more cm so fx!

Hello ladies! I also wonder a bit about pregnacare vitamins - I was taking the Boots own ones which are exactly same ingredient wise and they made me feel pretty peculiar (more than usual), did a bit of reading and found people saying that they can also interfere with opks etc so I've switched to the Seven Seas ones which have a lot less things in (which I prefer as some of the Pregnacare/boots ingredients seemed a bit odd) so hopefully those will suit me better - I've seen a few ladies here mention them fx for all of you and hope you're gearing up for a good weekend x

It my 6th year wedding anniversary today and to celebrate AF has rocked up too

Oh rainy, so sorry for af.
Hope you can still enjoy a nice anniversary evening. Don't let the witch ruin it. Xx

Aww, Rainy, that is a bit poo. I hope you still manage to have a nice night.

Eskimo, your holiday sounds amazing. I have never been to Italy before, but do like pasta, so feel like I am practically a native!

Mummy, I hope you have a brilliant birthday weekend!

I really wish AF would hurry up & get here. I hate it when you know you are not pregnant, but are not bleeding yet. There is always that sneaky little bit of hope that the tests might be wrong.

I probably won't be around as much the next couple of weeks, as I am going to be working. I have done the odd day at my sister's place before & they need a temp, so asked me to fill in. I am starting tomorrow, then doing the next couple of weeks. I am looking forward to it, especially the getting paid bit, but am slightly nervous.

Saturday we are going to see my nephews, then stopping over in a nice hotel.

I forgot to say-good luck to you, Lucie. I really hope all goes well for you this time. I was wondering a couple of days ago how you were getting on.

Rainy how rubbish af showed up. Happy anniversary anyway.

Thanks nomio! I hope you can get cracking on your next cycle soon

Looks like AF has decided to show her face. On to the next cycle.

Thanks girls, I have dosed up on paraceptamol and we went out for a nice meal!!

Chops and Spinning hope you enjoy meeting up and have a lovely time!!

such a shame to read that Sparkly is still very poorly , think about her a lot and how she is!!

Lucie good luck with the injections , got my fingers crossed for you xx

DizzyNorthernbird thank you, i think you are right, i think the pills must be helping in some sort of way, i have also noticed that i am constipated since coming of off them, will def get back on them!!

rainy34, 35, TTC1, cycle 15, BFP due 31st August*

Nomio, sorry af got you too Xx

Sorry AF got you nomio and rainy.

Happy anniversary rainy. Glad you had a nice time.

Sorry for af rainy and nomio x
