hello old buddies

i have been away for a while so just wanted to pop in and say hello to everyone!

congratulations mum03 i have put a message for you on ttc gradueates.

ready and rah nice to see you back

i wont harp on because i can tell from reading a few posts the mood on this thread is at a low at this point i wish the bfp panda would wake up from hibernation and throw one everyones way!

i had a scan at 8.5 weeks and baby is doing fab - this is the furthest i have got without any complications im very happy and hope it continues.

love to all xx

Hiya, Im new to temping, ive been messing around with it but not taking it first thing in the morning so not doing it properly. I have just ordered a proper thermometor and some of those strip things and im going to start properly when af arrives in a couple of weeks. Im hoping itll make things a bit more obvious as i hate not know ing if ive ovd or not and this month i feel like i have about 3 times!!!

Spugs - welcome lets hope that your stay here is short. I've just started temping properly this month and hope that I get more of an idea when I am ovualting (or if I am at all!) Feel free to add yourself to list when you can

Nappy, Minxi and duchesse - hope your managing to get in as much bding as possible.

Thinking and rattling - looks like we may be coming up to the cruical bding time together, fingers crossed for us all.

I'm trying to be alot more positive since my last depressing post - very hard to be cheerful with all this rain but trying my best. Hope your all having a good weekend

Gracie14 · 30/06/2007 16:19

Ready - sorry didn't mean to forget you, how are you, feeling any more positive?

Ready · 30/06/2007 16:20

Fettle - Lovely to "see" you. Things are still up in the air with DH's job, pretty scary thinking about it all. But hey ho. House is on the market, and had a few viewings so far. One couple keen, but have more properties to view, but considering an offer, and a couple that came this morning are coming back for a second viewing next week. Fingers crossed.
3rd trimester huh! Where does the time go? I am so thrilled for you - but also a little sad that I still haven't joined you on the graduates thread. Pop in and see us again won't you!

Minxi My EW usually dries up right after my temp shoots up, so I would imagine that while it's there it's time to get down to it

NappyValley - You are right, of course, 2009 will be worth the wait if it has to be that way. I shouldn't be so mopey. It's just after FTC all this time, it starts to get me down.

Spugs - Welcome to the thread. Hope you enjoy temping! Good luck

Iwillbe - Lovely to hear your news, glad all is well. Take care of yourself

Hope everyone is just grand.

Ready · 30/06/2007 16:22

Gracie - I like you trying to be more positive. I wish I could summon some optimism at the moment! I'm still not my usual positive self to be honest.

RahRah1 · 30/06/2007 19:39

Hi Girlies.....

It's Rah the lurker!

BIG {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
to all...... But it is definitely the rain!

I feel like crap as well and have been really pee'd off with life recently but I think the weather is really playing a hand in it!

Plus (I know TMI) but my husband has pissed me off...I have been trying to leave it longer into our fertile period before we have sex, so his sperm is more potent... but just found out he has bloodly pleasured himself... lol.... GRRRRRRRR I give up! I have been playing it really casual this month, no temps or pee'ing on stick yet... but lost it today....I'm just a control freak! How dare he!

Plus our fertility appointment is on Tuesday... so everyone fingers crossed for us!

Signing off a nervous but annoyed rah XX

greedygreedyguzzler · 30/06/2007 21:55

Gracie14, Thanks for mentioning me in your list...makes me feel part of the group Fingers crossed here too

greedygreedyguzzler, Thanks for posting.I would never of guessed that it would of been possible to get pregnant with so much gap between babydancing and ovulation....Big congratulationsto you and your DH.

You have inspired me to give it a go this month, even though it is very unlikely to be a BFP month...so thankyou

nomoremagnolia · 01/07/2007 12:30

Hi girls, if it's ok can I join you too? I'm going to try temping again so I can have some 'evidence' of my cycles to show specialist. GP blood tests show I didn't ov, but I think I ov at cd19/20 and have 10 day lp (blood tests were on day21). GP insists lp is 14 days , didn't bother arguing with her but want to with specialist (who might actually know what he's talking about)
I temped a couple of months (jan/feb 07) but found it really stressful. Hopefully you guys might help me through? Sorry I haven't had the time to read the whole thread (or any of the preceeding ones), I hope you'll let me join 'as is'
ps today is cd1

NappyValley · 01/07/2007 12:52

hi nomoremagnolia (good name!!) You are very very welcome. I will add you to the list once I ahve caught up on what has happened over the last few days, as I have to post my temp for today.
Try not to get stressed about temping. If you forget one day it does not matter. It is an aid really, as well as you say providing health proffesionals with some useful research/evidence. I find it helpful to track OV, but also have found my LP dropped to 9 days in march,apr,may . It used to be 14!! Anyway back in a mo!!

graduates thank you so much for popping in with all your positivity and news on how those bumps are growing. It has really cheered me up. it is nice to know we are not forgotten. I have ordered a truck load of bamboo to decorate the drive to lure the Pregnancy Panda down to the south coast. I was hoping she(?) was going to travel along the coast from seaside but it appears she got lost!

rah Feel your pain hun. But let us be realisitic here they just can't keep there hands off!

ready oh house sales are so so stressy feel for you and hope it goes well.

thinking GO FOR IT. You might as well have fun before he goes anyway.

greedy that is an amazing tale and pregnancy.

minxi keep at it until you see that temp rise some more.

spugs/nomoremagnolia welcome welcome we neeed some new recruits

As for us we are taking operation shag very seriously this month, so much so that DH let me have a lovely lie in this morning til 7.30 no less (yes those trying for no 1 that IS a lie in) so had to march him back upstairs while DS having his nap. Poor thing! needs must.

Good morning girls...I have hardly taken my temperature this month at all so have no idea when or what is happening....think I must have ovulated over the weekend but fertility friend hasn't even put me down as fertile as no information!

Hope all is well and despite feeling fed up last week there is no point getting stressed about it so here I am today with lots of PMA for all here is to a good month!!
