Hi yum! My af is not due til 21st-ish April but with the amount of action I've seen this month I feel like I may as well join you already
However, I shall delay the just-about-inevitable and leave you to some real May-TTC-ers....hope you are not alone for long.....

yum03creameggs · 07/04/2007 20:51

Thanks fmn - don't think I will be alone for long, although it would be nice if everyone got bfps anyway!

hi, can't add my dates yet but i have been waiting for this thread to pop up!! I had a m/c at 5+2, 2 weeks ago today . I am waiting for my af to come, which if it works as i hope (ie my body treating the bleed as a period) I'm due on in about 2 weeks.

Desperate for af to come (first though i have to do a pg test on weds to check it's negative.... never have i wanted a neg test more!) so we can jump on that bandwagon again.

I hope it won't take too long once we get started... this pg was in the 4th cycle since statign ttc, and only 5 months since i came off depo, and my dd who is almost 4 was conceived unexpectedly (read honeymoon baby ) so i think I am kind of fertile. I just want one to stick now

Hespera · 07/04/2007 21:13

Hello, can I join this one?
Alittlebitshy so sorry to hear that - positive vibes for you this month.
I'm cd3 and af due around 1/5

goingfor3 · 08/04/2007 19:27

I'm not sure which board to be on as af is due end of april begining of may. I'll stick to both for now!

alittlebitshy - sorry to hear about what happened

Imawurzelcoveredinchocolate · 08/04/2007 19:38

Hi all.
May i join? Might not always be here, i pop in and out.
My AF is due on 19th April.
Week just gone was my fertile one (i think)
Came of pill Oct 06, and thinking they are now geting back to normal.
They have been 30 days(Jan) 26 days (Feb) 28 days (March).
Not sure on my cycle dates.
alittlebitshy to hear that. Fingers and toes crossed for you

pobletsmum · 08/04/2007 19:55

alitttlebitshy - sorry to hear that. I hope you get the -ve you're hoping for (seems bizarre to say that!).

Not sure that I'm 100% ready for another baby, but probably TTC this month - I don't think I'll ever be ready (sick throughout last pregnancy, horrible labour/birth), but I really really do want another baby.

spotting today, so expect proper cd1 tomorrow, next af (or not) mid-May. Hope that makes sense!

yum03creameggs · 08/04/2007 20:24

It is good to see I am not alone, will look forward to seeing us all with bfp's in a few weeks time. I am starting with a positive attitude and you can all remind me of it when we get to the horrible 2ww depression .

So have many of you got other children or are you ttc#1?

I am ttc#3

OP posts:
Imawurzelcoveredinchocolate · 08/04/2007 20:52

I am ttc#1.

pobletsmum · 09/04/2007 20:41

Will be TTC2. Have a scrumptious little boy aged 22 months who would love a brother or sister...

MrsMcJnr · 10/04/2007 16:01

Hey ladies Can I join you? I know some of you but not others and look forward to getting to know the rest of you too

It?s CD1 today ? and almost happy about it! Like alittlebitshy, I recently MC, 41 days ago to be precise, I was 10 weeks Anyway let?s hope this means I?ll get a normal cycle this one round and if I do, AF would be due 7/5.

Fingers crossed for you all ? let?s hope we see the New Year in just before we meet our new babies!

mumto3girls · 10/04/2007 16:07

I don't know when AF is due as I also had mc last month...I just took the pg test to make sure it was negative and it was..horrible to want a test to show negative!

Anyway I'd love to get pg asap and wish you all luck too!

MrsMcJnr · 10/04/2007 16:39

Know that feeling Mumto3girls, very odd! Everything crossed for you!

mum2sam · 10/04/2007 16:44

hiya can i join-im just finishing AF .Im preparing my body at the mo ive brought loadsa grapefruit juice this morning and vitamin B complex can anyone tell i really want to get pregnant this month

MrsMcJnr · 10/04/2007 16:58

Hello I just posted for you on your other thread ? I?m all loaded up to begin too, pregnacare, EPO, grapefruit juice, green tea, porridge and pre-seed plus a good supply of OPKs and HPTs! oh, and the will to get there of course!

mumto3girls · 10/04/2007 17:04

grapefruit juice??? what does that do?

mum2sam · 10/04/2007 17:27

ita ment to rpoduce a better environment for the sperm i think must order that pre-seed will look it up in a bit

PinkElephant · 10/04/2007 17:28

Hi all ...... Oh I'm such a saddo as I'm so so so excited to be on here at last. Its been a long 3month wait after my ectopic at christmas but here I am all ready to TTC again. Ovulation is this friday .....hooray!!! I'd forgotten about the grapfruit juice, I'm eating a grapefriut most days coz I love them for breakfast, surley this will have the same effect? I must admit as for all the other multivitamins and EPO etc I haven't started with these yet, just settled for folic acid. I may just see how I go and then start good old vitamin cocktails in the next few months if nothing happens

Good luck to us all this month ladies Its so strange to see us both back here MrsMcJr...hopefully lots of happiness will be soon to follow

Woodmouse · 10/04/2007 18:24

Hi everyone, may I join you too? AF is due around 23/04, so not wholly in May. is that ok? I'll be popping in and out too. We're TTC#1. I've seen a few names before and a few I don't recognise. Good luck everyone

I'm so sorry to hear about your mc's MrsMcJnr and alittlebitshy. You'll have lots of support here.

Thanks for the tips re grapefruit and everything else. DH works away a lot, so I'm sure to be around on the TTC June and TTC July threads eventually, if he is not at home at the right times!

mum2sam · 10/04/2007 20:08

snap woodmouse hence why im getting desperate and trying loads of things

mum03 · 10/04/2007 20:14

My dh is away most of each week too, so perhaps we should start a thread about ttc with dh away!!! might make interesting reading.

Good to see we are all starting off in a positive pro-active frame of mind, I am just taking multivit with folic acid, not into grapefruit juice myself.

I have reverted to my non-easter name (from yum03creameggs) as easter is now finished. Now instead of easter eggs we need to focus on our own eggs and getting them sorted out!

suss · 10/04/2007 20:57

Hi trying to conceive number two and without husband! Its our last IVF attempt, my DH has fertility problems and so we are using donor sperm. This is our last attempt as after this we have no more sperm. I did conceive last attempt but had a chemical pregnancy, ie positive test and then af a few days later. I will be dipping in and out too but I think my cycle will start beginning of may.

Imawurzel · 10/04/2007 20:57

I'm trying to not think 'must make baby - must make baby'
Just gonna go with the flow at the mo.
I'm only on Folic Acid tablets. Boots own.
Don't really like grapefruit juice, but may get a little carton and drink it through the day, how much are you supposed to drink then??
When it gets to July or so if we have not been successful then a trip to the doc's it will be.
Just in case.

mum2sam · 11/04/2007 11:22

ive just ordered pre-seed last night hoping it will get here before the wkend. Im not sure what else i should be doing-apart from trying to relax . Cant remeber doing all this last time

meto · 11/04/2007 11:37
