Have been slowly coming off antidepressants and stopped taking the pill (using condoms) to get body back to normal ready to try for no.2 in June, also started taking pregnacare. I know its early to start posting but got my first proper period today so just been on site to check fertile dates for months again and think we're going to go for it in June - ooooooooooooo, very excited. Just wondered if there was anyone else out there planning way ahead cos i wouldn't talk to anyone in RL life about it so far ahead, other than dh!

Hi Tiger (and everyone). I am good today, starting to relax a bit more. Still nipple tweaking . Just need to sort out my problem with cream cake addiction and everything will be fab!

Scorpio - enjoy your Bud and your hotpants (I have never been able to wear hotpants) , make the most of it while you can.

Lissie - will be checking back here tomorrow to see how you get on with the specialist (and if you do another test before you go).

Thelittlesoldiersmummy · 03/06/2007 19:53

Hi all hope you all had a feb weekend I managed to burn my shoulders yesterday in my mum and dads garden

Scorpio you kind of new af was coming but a bummer that it has more bding for you then bet dh is happy!!

My dh has put it off as he has been working really hard and coming home late but I have told him for the next week he has not choice

Good luck tomorrow Lissie

Tiger your holiday sounds fab i keep trying to make my dh go but because he works for himself he says he cant go on holiday at the moment then hopefully I will be to big and pg to want to go in the winter!

manamana · 03/06/2007 21:26

woweeeeeeee, i'm offline for one weekend and there's loads of chat! Had my parents to stay which is always a bit stressful, made more so by the fact that the go to bed really early, insist on sleeping on sofa in living room rather than take up our offer of our bed and so we are stuck in our bedroom being really quiet (its a small flat and they don't like sleeping with the door shut so can hear every noise 9good job it wasn't fertile time!).
Scorpio, sorry to hear that period has arived but LOVING your wedding venue. We live by the sea and got married in a little hotel nearby but had our wedding photos on the prom, some with pier in the background, cheesey
anyway, onto the important business. I'm on day 22 - feeling pretty constipated which is how i felt whn pg with ds but have also been taking my pregnacare which has iron and also makes me a bit 'bunged up!!!' so who knows...
Feeling v lucky that I'm on a standardish 28day cycle, you 40ish day ladies have to have a LOT of patience.

manamana · 03/06/2007 21:44

meant add lissie - love your wedding tale, i too passed out well before the end of the party - laid out on one of the setas in the bar , that was after nagging dh for the previous 3months about the fact that he shouldn't drink too much!!! I blame the bar men, they were practising for a cocktail copmpytetion the next day and I am an utter lightweight

tigerschick · 04/06/2007 08:33

Really good luck at your specialist lissie Will be thinking of you.

Manamana - hope you had a good weekend with your parents. We were only so chatty coz we haven't got real lives

plummymummy · 04/06/2007 08:39

Good morning all. Scorpio - pants about your period but glad you are upbeat. about the clubbing and hotpants - like tiger the last time they fitted me was when I was 19-23. Good luck for July - lots of summer lovin'

Lissie - you must be really going through it with the "am I, aren't I" scenario. Hope it's positive. What time is your appt? Best of luck

Off for my scan soon so will give you an update after. Bye for now.

scorpio1 · 04/06/2007 09:01

plummy and lissie - best of luck at your appointments today thinking of you both.

UpsyDaisy · 04/06/2007 09:14

Hi All!
I have been working all weekend...haven't you all been chatty! I never seem to have the time to stay on for long must try and prioritise a bit more!
Good luck all with scans and appointments today.

Soph73 · 04/06/2007 09:33

Morning all - you have been busy over the weekend. Plummy & Lissie good luck for your appointments today. Well, period was due on Saturday and no sign of it yet. Spoke to dh about buying a test and he told me to wait (easier said than done). The thing is I´m going on a girlie night out on Saturday, which will involve a fair amount of wine so really need to know whether I am or aren´t pg.

Don´t think I ever owned a pair of hotpants, although don´t think they were in fashion when I was young enough & slim enough to carry them off

Loved the wedding venues. We got married over here (Gran Canaria) at the end of July and it was baking. Quite a few of our friends and family came and the hotel where we had our reception was fantasticwww.euro-hotels.com/hotelinfo/Escuela_Hotel_Santa_Brigida/, we got to try the food and drink before we made our final choice for free - even better

tigerschick · 04/06/2007 11:29

Soph - that's a beautiful setting - as if I wasn't enough already!!

Plummy and lissie - any news yet? Hope everything went OK.

Upsydaisy - like I said earlier - we were only chatting on here coz we haven't got real lives I was multi-tasking, tho the ironing took about 3 times longer than usual as it's difficult to iron and post at the same time!

Hope everyone is well today.

tryingtokeepmychinup · 04/06/2007 11:40

Hi can I join you? I only discovered this site yesterday. Felt quite alone until yesterday. I have been ttc since November 06 and still nothing. I am 30, and I was on the pill for 10 years. Has anyone been trying for as long as me?

Although I have only just invested in ovulation sticks so fingers crossed they will help.

Is it true that brazil nuts can help my DH swimmers? because of thier selenium content.

My best friend has just got pregnant after coming off the pill 4 weeks ago, feeling quite down although very pleased for my friend.

Soph73 · 04/06/2007 11:52

Welcome tryingtokeepmychinup. We´ve been ttc since November as well (although this will be our second) so you´re not alone Haven´t invested in ovulation sticks yet though. Don´t know about brazil nuts

tigerschick - it was lovely and those piccies don´t really do it justice

UpsyDaisy · 04/06/2007 12:25

Hello tryingtokeepmychinup.
We haven't been trying that long, but a friend of mine took nearly a year to concieve, and she has a beautiful baby girl now......enjoy the trying I'm sure it will happen soon!
I have been looking thro all the lovely wedding venue pics......my wedding was very small but perfectly formed...apart from dh getting so drunk at the pub in the eve he was no good to man nor beast! IYSWIM !

Hope everyone got the news they wanted today.

I've just had a romany gypsy round selling lace and I have no money, so couldn't buy any, am I going to be cursed now? Oh no.....I should have raided the copper jar......bugger...

spugs · 04/06/2007 12:35

hiya , good luck to everyone having tests today and those hoping for a bfp. Im going slowly mad and am symptom spotting like crazy - my sister thinks it is all in my head and that its possible to wish yourself into having nausea,and cramps! need this week to fly past so i can either get bloody af or have a bfp, though my gut feeling in varying wildly between the 2!

Soph73 · 04/06/2007 13:10

spugs - I know exactly what you mean, let´s go slightly mad together

tigerschick · 04/06/2007 14:30

Hi tryingtokeepmychinup - I told you we were nice

Hope you are feeling a bit brighter knowing that you are not alone. We are all on here because we want the same things and some of us have been here quite a while... but the ante-natal threads are booming too, so it does happen, I guess it's just a matter of waiting our turns. I know what you mean about other people getting pg, 2 of my friends from ante-natal with dd are expecting their 2nd ones in November. One lot weren't even trying properly, they just thought they'd see what happened! Ah well, dead pleased for them, like you are for your friend

Any news yet Plummy? Lissie?

scorpio1 · 04/06/2007 14:34

Hi tryingtokeepmychinup - we are nice!! i have been ttc since Feb this year.selenium is helpful, as is avoiding overheating his man bits he too should minimise alcohol content and stop smoking, if he is.
