Coggy's Catch Up........

803 replies

coggy · 12/01/2007 19:38

It seems FOREVER ago that I was properly on MN and obssessively ttc!
Only 2 1/2 months ago but alot has happened in that time I expect (no.....sadly no bfp from me yet!!!)
I guess that Debbsy has had her Bibsy and maybe Peachy too......BooBoo next month.....lots of other BFPs??????
Natty, MrsMc and Trace have kept me with some of the news on here.

Here's a quick catch-up with me and what is happening.....
I am CD25 of a usual 26/27 day cycle with all the classic AF signs.....cramps, tiredness, wind etc. etc. (It's nice to be back!! )
I am starting IUI this next cycle so I am only a couple of days away from that and VERY excited and VERY nervous about jabbing myself too!
I figured as well as catching up with my old ttc buddies I could also moan and groan merrily away about it all on this thread and (hopefully) get a little bit of (much needed) sympathy at the same time!!!

I am SUCH a wimp really!!!!
Roll on CD1......

coggy good luck i really hope this works for you

coggy · 28/02/2007 16:50

That has made me feel LOADS better BooBoo....on both counts!

DH is really enjoying the Fairy Biscuits....I don't think he's actually noticed that they aren't supposed to be flat!
Either that or he is a darling and is just pretending!

He asked me this afternoon if I was pg yet.
Do they have NO understanding of how it all works?????!!!!!!
Bless him......it's going to be a long wait for him isn't it??!

coggy · 01/03/2007 09:33

I didn't realise that you were near the end Pusscat!
CD30....the thing is we always hope don't we?
You never know...stranger things have happened.

If not...then roll on the 15th for us both hey.

Do you use self-raising flour then oh bun-queen guru?
Is that where I went wrong??!!!

Debbsyandson · 01/03/2007 13:23

Coggy hows wannabe doing hun? not seen her around just been looking on loads of threads but ive drawn a blank now

coggy · 01/03/2007 16:01

I think she's pretty much staying away from the ttc threads and trying not to think about it too much.....she's been on quite alot of other ones though....chat and stuff.
Not a lot of help am I?!

(And correct me if I'm wrong of course wannaBe!!! )

How's Kai doing?
I bet you can't imagine what it was like before him now.
Have you sorted it all out with your dp as well?

OP posts:
Debbsyandson · 01/03/2007 17:11

Kai is fab thanks he is 11 weeks old on sunday he is the absolute love of my life,he such a gorgeous and funny little boy and yes dh has been alot more of a help thank goodness.Im willing the 15th to come quickly for you,and i sincerely wish you the best of luck and really hope this is it for you.If you click on my proflie ill grant you access to look at some piccies.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Deb xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

pussycatmomma · 01/03/2007 19:33

yes , self raising flour is the key!!! mine come up like mountains and none of that arty farty rubbish either, must be white icing with a red cherry on the top. Hundreds and thousands permissable if cooking with children.
But hell, all artistic integrity goes out the window with my niece and nephew, its every man for himself!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Gosh its going to be a bloody long while till the 15th!!
How are you feeling anyway Coggs?
and how lovely to hear debbs talking about her child, i remember the threads about deb wanting her bean, then getting her bean, then debbys and "bibsy" was it? now here he is. Hope to us all.
xxxxxxx

peachygirl · 01/03/2007 19:40

have been lurking a bit Coggy fingers crossed for you and lots of positive thoughts being sent all over the country (as I'm not sure where you live to direct it)
Hi to everyone else!!

coggy · 01/03/2007 19:54

How are you Peachy....lovely to hear from you...enjoying life no doubt??

I'm down in the West Country...so please send it all down this way......well......leave a little for PCM of course!!!

Pusscat....I have eaten SO many that I'm glad I didn't put any icing or cherries on them!!
Not very Weight Watcher friendly really!

If I get my bfp I will make HUNDREDS of them with self raising flour AND icing and scoff the lot cos I won't be needing WW anymore will I??!!

Debbsy....as you haven't got a little yellow envelope.....how can I access your profile?
Am I really dim??
Or is this the beginning of pg brain????

Oh I'm so hopeful that it's sad!!!!!!

coggy · 01/03/2007 19:56

wannaBeWhateverIWannaBe · 07/03/2007 11:17

just a week to go now cogs - how's it all going? Am keeping everything crossed for you in fact have been telling my dh that you're due to test next week and am hoping you're going to get your bfp.

I'm on cd25 and have no simptoms of impending af, no sore boobs, no early spotting as is so often the case with me, nothing. after my thread about no simptoms of pregnancy, do I dare to be a little hopeful? lol af will probably be late thus forcing me to spend cash I haven't got, on a test I don't need to do, . but hey clearblue must need my money as I've been neglecting them recently lol.

coggy · 07/03/2007 11:57

LOL at wannaBe.....I think Clearblue do very well out of us ttc girls don't they??!

Well.....I have the old familiar AF type of cramps......not quite sure if this is possible as I only had the hcg jab on Saturaday so my body is still supposed to think I'm pg.....

Keep trying to convince myself that actually I just need to go to the loo!!

However......was just short-tempered on the phone...so is this the start of the old AF I wonder??

I am CD24 and 9dpo and going for my usual end of cycle status of manic hopefullness altenating with depressingly realisticness!!!
If only it was possible to just forget......to not notice every little cramp and twinch and sick feeling and ....and....and........AAARRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

OP posts:
coggy · 07/03/2007 11:58

I think that grin was an insane one BTW!!!

OP posts:
Booboobedoo · 07/03/2007 19:22

Wannabe: don't let Clearblue go bust! They're such a poor, struggling company. Good luck...

Coggy: I had major PMT when I got PG. It was one of the first clues: think it started around CD 19 (27 day cycle).

Cross fingers for you both.

40+4 today. Gah.
