Hi Imawurzel! I totally know what you mean playing the waiting game. I'm hoping for you! Love Gem.xXx

Imawurzel · 20/04/2007 07:02

Well, AF didn't visit yeaterday,knowing my luck it'll be today.
Gemtubbs, hope it all goes smoothly over the next 2weeks.
What time of day are you getting married?
We were at 2pm,so quite a relaxed morning, our friends got married at 12, and that was a bit of an early morning start.
I was up at 6.30 on our day to go get my hair done curly ish. Took ages.
Where are you off to on honeymoon?

wheelybug · 20/04/2007 08:30

Hi All

Gemtubbs - very exciting about your wedding coming up. It all sounds lovely. You sound pretty relaxed about it too which is great !

Imawurzel (are you a wurzel's fan ?)- strange about AF !!! When you going to test ?

goingfor3 sorry to hear AF is looming

Tigerschick - sorry you've come to join us from April. Hope your scan comes through quickly - did they say how long you'd have to wait ? I had one this month and only had to wait a few weeks. Are yuo having blood tests too ?

Hello everyone else.

I keep forgetting whereabouts I am - Can't remember if I always do this early in my cycle or if I have just suddenly relaxed about it all (I REALLY do not think the latter is the case as I have been an obssessive desperate person for the last 9 months !!). So time for a roll call, just to help me out ...

Wheelybug CD 10 OV end next week

tigerschick · 20/04/2007 09:32

Morning Everyone

Wheelybug - the doc said it'd be about 4 weeks and that was just over 2 weeks ago. Not sure if he meant I'd hear in 4 weeks or the scan would be in 4 weeks tho!

Hope everyone else is OK. Is Awen here?

scorpio1 · 20/04/2007 11:11

Hello, can i join please?

CD1 here after a very confusing last cycle!

i 'know' alot of you here anyway and hi to the ones ive yet to 'meet'

goingfor3 · 20/04/2007 11:19

It's a shame you had to come and join us scorpio but it's good to know where you are in your cycle. Antibiotics and being ill semmed to do the reverse to me, I started spotting early and I have never spotted before. Hopefully you will get a bfp in May.

scorpio1 · 20/04/2007 11:28

oh dont worry im not

just slighty relieved its all working.plus when i get pg now,my due date will be after my youngest starts pre-school,so even better!

Ready · 20/04/2007 12:16

Scorpio - Sorry to see you are CD1 - fingers crossed for you this month!

Shantih · 20/04/2007 12:50

Hey there Scorpio. CD1 was a relief for me too. I was just feeling plain bad prior and hoping it wasn't going to be a BAD pregnancy. Now at CD4 I'm feeling awesome.

Awen how are you feeling? Any sign of AF? Tiger, you still searching for AF too?

I know it's not perfect that we had to jump threads but it's nice to be among friends.

Hespera · 20/04/2007 13:20

Hello everyone
I am rubbish at coming back in here, aren't I!? It's been a busy old week and with the gorgeous weather and everything! I have missed a couple of BDing opportunies (not sure DH likes bonking to order!) and we're still in the early phases of TTC really so we'll just take it as it goes.
Hope you're all looking forward to fab weekends.
Hespera xx

plummymummy · 20/04/2007 14:56

Hi all. CD1 (I think). Got hopeful about a possible early pg (faint line on an ultra sensitive test), then started spotting shortly after. Hope May is a lucky month for us

tigerschick · 20/04/2007 15:10

Afternoon.

Sorry for rushed post this morning, Wheelybug. I've had blood taken which my doc said should be back by the time I've had the scan so will talk about them both at the same time. Was your scan conclusive? Do you mind me asking what it was for?

Hi Plummy and Scorpio Sorry to see you've both moved over here - there's hardly anyone left on the April thread!
I know what you mean, Scorpio, I think I'd be happy to see AF tbh. It's nearly 5 months since she was round this way!

Imawurzel · 20/04/2007 18:43

Wheelybug, no i'm not a wurzels fan (are they a group?)
I am from Dorset so depending on who i am talking to i can be rather Dorset/Wurzel like.
Well, on the testing front i am not entirely sure i was due yesterday, just guessed as the last 2 months have been 27/28 days, so if it doesn't come by monday then i will test. Or tommorrow.
I do really wanna know, but i'm probably not.
You lot here are gonna be the 2nd to know either way.
I don't have many friends in rl,only colleagues that could be called friends but they're not. Make sense?

wheelybug · 20/04/2007 19:07

Just a quickie as my computer has a prob with the power cable and won't use the mains so battery powered at mo and will run out soon so may be off for a few days (do me good)

Imawurzel - the Wurzels !!!! . Am pleased to hear you are not a fan. DH and a friend go on about them all the time. I like to think he's not a fan though.

Tigerschick - I'm not entirely sure I'm ovulating since m/c so the scan was to see if I had PCOS. I don't have PCOS but queried a hormonal problem which might mean the follicles are collapsing before releasing an egg. Only blood tests will show this. I've had 1 set of blood tests (day 2-5) and waiting for day 21 tests. Haven't got results of the first, am waiting to have the second set so they'll hav ea complete picture.

Sorry to those who've come to join us from April.

Good luck everyone - hope its not too long till I'm bakc on !

mum03 · 20/04/2007 19:37

Imawerzel - how could you not know the wurzels??? "I got a brand new combine 'arvester and I'll give you the key" is the tune that plays in my head everytime I read your name!!! But I guess that I must be showing my age by remembering it!!! Whoops!

plummymummy · 20/04/2007 20:57

Ooh I remember that song, but I didn't know who sang it. I love the west country accent. Incidentally the bejan (barbadian)accent is very similar

plummymummy · 20/04/2007 20:58

Enjoy the pub Scorpio. I'm on the wine tonight (yes wine, not whine)

goingfor3 · 20/04/2007 22:18

mum03- seems we are destined to be cycle buddies. I thought that I had ov'd early and missed it I did an OPK this evening and it's positive so it's seems I am ovualting around now. It's very late for me as I'm already on CD18 and I thought the sore boobs were af symptoms! I guess the two weeks wait starts tommorow and I'm not already a week into it like I thought!

Imawurzel · 21/04/2007 09:17

Oh i remember the song, didn't twig it was them that sung it.
i used to have a green diesel car and my work mates would laugh and sing the song and ask when i was upgrading to the new john deere!! So nice.

AF still hasn't shown.
Did a test this morn,(one of them e-bay cheapo's) but it was negative.

mum2sam · 21/04/2007 12:32

hiya everyone, hope you are doing well-this lovely sunny weather must be doing our eggs good! Ive bee trying those ovulation tests all week from ebay wasnt very confident about them and then decided to test again last night before binning them and finally 2 lines come up me and dh were getting all excited jumping around just over the fact i was due to ovulate ! Well i can sleep soundly now knowing that ive done all i could this month to get pregnant so fingers crossed. We both been taking our vitamins, eating healthy and i used pre-seed for the first time last night i really hope it has worked.

Gemtubbs · 21/04/2007 14:29

Hi Imawurzel! We're getting married at 3pm. We're going to Spain for honeymoon so should be nice. 2 weeks to go exactly today and tonight is DF's stag night. Hi Wheelybug, I'm not really nervous at the moment, but I might well be as the day gets closer...

Imawurzel, I hope AF stays away for you and you get a BFP soon!

Hope everyone's ok today and all the best!

Love Gem.xXx

Kaleidoscope · 21/04/2007 16:31

could i possibly join in??

ive been ttc since jan, was sure i was pregnant last month, had symptoms, af was late..but then af arrived, next af is due on or around 1st may, im not very regular.

Imawurzel · 21/04/2007 16:34

Ooh spain, never been there.
First time i went on a plane was 3 years ago when DH (then DF) suprised me with a trip to paris.
Then venice then italy. wonder where next
I hope the weather stays gorgeous for you (ours was a stonking hot day)
If i remember i will start a thread and send wishes and happiness your way. (not near calendar but 1st weekend in may yeah?)
Will put a note on my calendar to send happiness your way then.

mum03 · 21/04/2007 19:14

Phew - I am so glad that I am not the only one here that remembers the combine harvester song by the werzels, I was beginning to think I was old.

Gemtubs - how exciting to be so close to wedding day.

Kaleidoscope - hi and welcome.

goingfor3 - now this is getting spooky, our cycles are so similar it is weird. We went only 2 days out of sync, now we are back the same again!!! It is almost like we were living together and our pherimones (sp?) affecting each other LOL. Now I know that we will have to be preg buddies together too. Let us hope it is this month.

Lexie100 · 21/04/2007 20:28

Hi all that i know from April and hi to those of you i don't know. Going to crash i'm afraid as only me left on April and it's really rather lonely .

Still waiting for AF 4 days late. Did test this am but BFN. Will test again on Tuesday (i have ordered tests from internet). DPO short so think it's just too soon to pick HCG up?!?

Scorpio - how was last night?
