Just reading through properly now as earlier I was rushing in whenever the mindees were being quiet for a bit. Now it's just ds I can think better

kirstygem - thanks, feel better now as felt it was odd I was so scared about it after wanting it so much! Oh....and no headstands or anything, didn't even do the business that much this time round and I never seem to have an EWCM but still managed it!!

MissusH - oh, i'd love my cycle buddy to join me......did you run to the chemist on your way home??

Shaz & Foghorn - thanks for the link/info. I suppose I'm best waiting til I've seen the Dr - I'm going to insist on a dating scan and hope they allow it as my cycles have made it difficult to guess and my periods have hardly been what I call proper periods!

Har - is it too early to start an anti-natal thread? Can't see any for summer next year?

Gosh....still can't believe it. The worst part is my tummy is already getting bigger and some trousers don't fasten What do I do? I don't want to show or anything until 3 months for obvious reasons but also because I'm not telling mindees parents until I'm 3 months, just in case!

Right, best clear this mess up (or shall I shove it all in the playroom and start earlier tomorrow?

BABY DUST to the rest of you!!!!

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 18:42

Meant to say......thanks to everyone else for your messages (I'm getting forgetful already!!!)

spookykitty · 16/10/2007 19:01

I have got LOADS of EWCM (I could bottle and sell it [vomit]

let the baby making commence

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 19:14
  • well I have no, just this evening, keep feeling very damp down there! I wasn't getting anything for OV though so hope that doesn't mean it won't stick
Screaminglips · 16/10/2007 19:29

can anyone help me here??

ive had my mirena coil taken out today..when do i start trying?? straight away or after my first AF?....as had no period since aug 05 - coil fitted in dec 04 - but had spottings about 3 times since. Thanks!

Screaminglips · 16/10/2007 19:30

not ...but

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 19:39

I personally would wait until you've had a period but I'm not sure what the proper advice is. Didn't they tell you?

artichokes · 16/10/2007 19:59

Congratulations to Looney and welcome Screaminglips (I am new too).

Can I ask TTC experts a question? I am ovulating today. I have pains and EWCM. DH is away. We did the deed on Sunday pm and will again tomorrow pm. Do we have a chance this month?

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 20:01

All I can say is there's no way I thought I'd be pregnant as deffo didn't do it when I presume I was OV. Never say never

Screaminglips · 16/10/2007 20:24

bllodsuckinglooney - yes youre right as i just racked my brains as im knackered today anyway..must be coming down with summat!....TTC after ya first period...

i usually get the signs of the periods which it falls on the first week of the month.

digitalgirl · 16/10/2007 21:08

artichokes you get EWCM and pains before you Ov. so if you've still got both symptoms tomorrow then tomorrow night should hit the spot! Also sperm can last at least 3 days in fertile conditions so you should still be okay if you're ov-ing today (don't let that stop you tomorrow though!)

well I had a panicky moment on the way home today, thought AF had started as got a 'wet' feeling whilst walking to the tube. don't you hate it when that happens...you can't check for ages so you just have all sorts of horrible thoughts going through your head about leaking and staining etc. anyway, as soon as I got to the loo I checked, it was just loads of CM. I usually get loads of cramps as AF starts...but not been too bad today. Here's hoping a swimmer found the egg in time and my uterus doesn't start packing all the party decorations away before it turns up.

artichokes · 16/10/2007 21:38

thanks digitalgirl - that is good news (it will give DH an incentive to hurry home ). i had no idea that pains came before ovulation - i assumed it was the pain of the egg being released.

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 21:47

DG - have you got a test......please test.......i've had the same wetness for a couple of days and this evening had a right load on my knickers - sign of pregnancy?!?!!!!

debinaustria · 16/10/2007 21:54

Looney, Congratulations, come and join us on due in june 2008 on the antenatal threads

Hi to everyone else - sound like some good symptoms - looking forward the next round of bfp's at the weekend

Deb

digitalgirl · 16/10/2007 21:58

looney lol I was really worried when I saw your message on the 2ww thread!! I thought, oh god, what have I done!

I know, damp knickers - gotta be another symptom to add to the ever increasing list. BUT I got a BFN last Saturday and too scared to see another one. I'm trying to calmly wait till Friday now when I've got a doc's appointment (was saturday).

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 22:01

Oh, is there a June 08 thread - i'll go look

DG - sorry to panic you and sorry if it sounded like i was nagging, I didn't know you'd already tested as not been reading much on here recently as was sort of having a break. Will come and check back though

MissusH · 16/10/2007 22:05

Welcome screaminglips

I had my mirena out in June and was told that I could start trying straight way if I wanted! I had a small bleed about 10 days after it was removed than a 10 day shocker of a period 2 weeks after that! Since then things have settled down with a 32 day & 30 day cycle and normal periods...

Evening looney I haven't tested yet and avoided the chemist on the way home (tbh dd was a whingebag and wanted to come straight home from school)

I have spent the evening at dd's karate class followed by some therapeutic baking (carrot cake - yum).

Still no sign of TEW so maybe I'll test tomorrow (if I get the chance)

digitalgirl · 16/10/2007 22:06

heehee - don't think you're a nag at all! Am loving that I'm having symptoms that a REAL pregnant lady is having. and I nearly did run upstairs and rip open my last CB digital test

however, am an obsessive cervix checker and last week my cervix was high soft and open up until friday when it started closing up and lowering. this morning it was much lower and harder. so I'm thinking Friday must have been the real O day. Think I've got a while before a BFP will turn up (if it does).

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 16/10/2007 22:09

MissusH - I will be checking on you!

DG - well you know I did that thread about cervix as was high, well last night it was low - how can it go from high to low within a few hours?

digitalgirl · 16/10/2007 22:19

high to low in the same day? erm...have heard 'fullness of bottom' can affect position...ahem.

I've been checking during my morning shower, as 'they' say to do it at the same time each day in order to compare how it's moving.

MissusH · 16/10/2007 22:25

would you believe it??? no sooner did I type "no sign of TEW" than niggly cramping and signs on the knicker-watch appear!!!

looks like she was lurking all along and AF is on it's way

On the plus side, dh has changed shifts so many more opportunities for bd'ing!!

MissusH · 17/10/2007 00:01

okay - I surrender....

I think I'm going mad! niggly cramp has gone (if it was ever there at all ) and I think I have had freaky cm rather than the start of af (just had a rummage around the undercarriage and no signs of blood, also my cervix seems to have vanished)

I'm stropping off to bed now - if no af tomorrow I'm testing [stampy foot emoticon]

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 00:05

Before you go.......I felt like TEW was on her way first too!! And yes, weird CM down there!!

Oh......fingers tightly crossed for you!!!

MissusH · 17/10/2007 00:17

a hopeful thought to go to bed on - ta

g'night...

bloodsuckingLOONEY · 17/10/2007 00:27

Night and keep us posted! xx
