Eoverybody seems to be ttc no.1 and 3!! Anybody here for the joy of a second one? xx

Hello all-just popping in to make sure you are all ok and doing lots of BDing

TTC still on hold here- wedding in 9 months- so am very watching you all getting excited and hopeful!!

Hi Ammy, nice to see you Hope you're busy with wedding plans and getting excited for your big day. Is your DD going to be a bridesmaid? When are you going to start ttc again?

My third month now ttc and still trying to stay relaxed but can feel myself starting to fail miserably at the whlole relaxed thing. Want to pg now

good luck insy with the drs

thanks for all nice mess .. take it bd means baby dust?

Read the every 48 hours to replensih after bding legs in teh air for about half an hour or so after - trying to give the little tadpoles a sense of direction!! dp just laughed at me ... he reckons he is well up for 17 days.. he is loving it! (i am too )

His results came back as 100 mil good motitility.. is that good or average.. how do i find out

Sorry mum2sam for AF xx never know we could both end up on the Dec thread.

We have been trying for a while but this our first month of clomid.. kinda of scared in case it doesnt work.. but being posoitve - positive keen vibes to body..

from what i can remember from my limited investigations last time i think sperm count over 20 mil is considered good... dh never had his check though as we only got to having my blood tests done

Hi All!

Not much TTC happening here i'm afraid! Too much to think about at the mo.

Mum has had tests done. The results of the biopsy will be back on thursday (mum and dads wedding anniversary!. Looks like it is cancer. Obviously we are hoping it isn't.

Mum's really poorly at the minute and is living on complan and lucozade.

Oh it's so heart breaking to see her like this. We just want thursday to be here so we know what we are dealing with. At least then she can have treatment and we hope upon hope she will get better.

Sorry for lowering the tone.

Hope everyone's ok and having plenty of rumpy pumpy!!

jhyesmum - I am so sorry you are going through this and sorry for the rest of your family as well. It is horrible not knowing and at least once you have the results as you say, you will know what you are dealing with. I do obviously hope the results of her tests come back and show that she doesn't haven't cancer.

I hope you are feeling as well as possible and don't be sorry for 'lowering the tone', I like to think this thread is to give each other support and not just with TTC (((hugs)))

Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all ok

hi jhyesmum, think furry said it all - thinking of you all and hope Thursday comes really quickly for you x

Thanks Girls - so appreciated. And I really mean that.

I'm having this really hard exterior at the moment, trying to keep everything together. My daddy is going through hell and my sis is really fragile, so i feel that at least if i can keep strong, when it comes to the results, one of us is going to deal with it.

However, inside i am falling apart. I refuse to let myself go though because i'm scared i won't be able to pull myself together. I'm not that sort of person. I'm all funny, happy go lucky type of gal, but i have got to admit that this is breaking me down quite a bit.

My DH bless his heart is saying 'look, we don't know she's got it yet' but just looking at mummy at the minute is breaking my heart.

Sorry for rambling. That's my feelings at the minute and it's the first time i have said it, so thanks for listening!

All my thoughts will be with you over the next few days.

jhyesmum - i've written this post about 3 times and i just can't find the right words, can only say theres a virtual coffee and chat here whenever you need it, just keep talking about it x

hi girls - anyone done charting? in an attempt to take control i'm going to start plotting my temp but not sure how where do you take it? if af arrives also have opks too to see what they tell me - arriving from ebay very soon!

insy - I only know the basics but basically I think you have to take your temp at the same time each day, in the morning I think and before you get out of bed, you need to have at least 3 hours unbroken sleep as well. Think you just take your temp from your mouth. However I'm not 100% sure as I have never done it myself. There are far more people on here that know a lot more about temping than me.

You may have noticed a thread in 'conception' called 'temping buddies'. They're a group of girls that take their temps each day etc, if you pop in there I'm sure one of them will be able to fill you in a lot more than me

thanks furry - jumped onto other thread for advice

hurrah! af arrived last night that explains why i was so emotional this week, does mean i had a 55 day cycle lets hope it gets shorter... so charting and opks then this month to see if i can work out whats going on - figured if it doesn't show me anything at least its data to show doc

very today and dh says sod waiting till i start work lets try anyway and if it happens it happens feel like we may have a chance now, fingers crossed for the best christmas present ever!

Hi all.
Glad to hear your news insey - you must be so relieved!
I'm feeling really stressed today. I'm on cd 14 today and my cycles are normally 25 - 29 days long. I've been doing the op tests and had nothing but bfn's all week. On thurs and fri I was sure I'd get a positive as I'd had the egg white cm (sorry for tmi)but still nothing. Although I'm worried that the cm might have been remnants of bd-ing 8 hours earlier. Now am really scared incase I'm not ovulating and wishing i'd been taking temps as I would then know for sure. My af's are always the same so surely I am ovulating? Sorry to have a moan but i need to get this off my chest...

Ov sticks might be wrong. If your urine is too weak it may not show up.

I'm taking my temp and using ov sticks plus looking for biological signs!!!!! Got to get some sign soon - cd10 and 9 days left in my fertile window. Still lots of BD to do .

Well another negative on the ov sticks - god knows whats going on. All my biological signs seem right... Think i'll start taking my temp next month not sure the stress of the ov sticks is really worth it. Oh well I'll continue with the bd and just keep my fingers crossed.
Good luck lexie

relieved but af from hell! hoping they get closer and lighter! (jhyesmum - think i'm having an af like your last one!)

buttercup - no advice as my cycle is rubbish but whatever the sticks say keep at it every 2 days temps next cycle may give you some reassurance, also what time do you take ov test? someone told me that was important...

Morning everyone.

Oooooooh insy I hope AF isn't too much like mine! I was so relieved when she'd buggered off! I had never missed a period in my life (lie, only when i was pg with DS), and I really paid for it!!

I had shares in Kotex night time pads!

I have no experience of OV stuff i'm afraid, so i can't give any advice.

I know when AF is coming because I bite DH head off for a week! But, I don't know when i'm OVing.

What are you all up to today? DH has gone out on his motorbike (his mistress!!!) so I think it's a washing day! Looks like a good drying day today.

I love nice fresh washing, does anyone else go along the line and smell their wahing while it's drying or is it just me!!!

oh yesmum, im so sorry i will be thinking and praying for you all xx

Thanks mumtosam. Never thought this would happen to me, you always think that your parents are indestuctable!

Ohhhh washing, did 3 loads today and yes i know what you mean about the smell. Came down with a cold last night and missed the BD so will have to make up for it tonight (3 nights without). Hopefully OV sticks right and that i'm not ovulating CD11. Just can't cope with a cold at the moment. DD been vomiting all week!

Just wanted to send you a {{{HUG}}} Jhyesmum. My Great-Aunt has recently died from cancer, although she surpassed all expectations (6 months max from diagnosis) by a year. I think when in limbo, waiting for the outcome of tests, it's difficult to move forward without already starting to grieve. I hope the tests are better than you are hoping, but if they do confirm your worst fears, then we are here to listen and offer our shoulders to you. Being Superwoman and holding it all together may be practical things that you can do, but please look after you and your emotions too. Sending you lots of luck...

Yesmum - I also wanted to send you my best wishes for this week and just to say that we are all here for you.

jhyesmum - if you now have shares in Kotex night pads I'd be making sure you were bring in a fortune! hoping it gets lighter today, wanted to take ds swimming

hows was your day yesterday? we got a baby seat for my bike and took ds for 5 mile ride, he loved it really felt like summer was on its way (and I smell the washing too )

hello to everyone else too - hope you all had good weekend
