Just rejoining my cycle buddy 07MTW now that I have stopped having a tantrum about TEW getting me.

glastochick · 18/01/2008 13:47

Hi sam. So sorry about your uncle. Sending you virtual hugs

mibbes · 18/01/2008 13:53

Sorry about your uncle sam
Welcome back Bucky, you are perfectly entitled to a wee foot stamping moment when TEW arrives
Looks like I'll be on the top of the list soon as started spotting today.

fruitloop79 · 18/01/2008 14:04

Ah Sam so sorry about your uncle

Thanks for signing the petition. It's all down to my lovely friend. She got it all going. I'm just helping her to collect a few more signatures!

Well, I think DP's having a change of heart about TTC. He did mention it while we were away at Christmas but I got so upset that he said we'll carry on. Now he's making excuses like he's too tired to BD
I'm so upset. He's got my hopes up since August. He says it's not a good time When is a good time???

Our DS will be 3 in June and I think even that's too big of an age gap

My problem is my worry about having difficulties TTC. With these mega cycles and zero signs of anything happening.
What if, when he decides he's ready, it takes a couple of years? I've always wanted a big family, I'm only 28 and I know I should be grateful for my DS as some people can't have any children but it's all I think about.

I don't know what to do to convince him apart from mad hysterics. I know he's just going along with it because I'm so desperate.
He doesn't want to get involved with all the TTC business and roles his eyes whenever I bring it up.

Help!!!!!

SydneyB · 18/01/2008 14:33

Sam, so sorry to hear about your uncle, you've def had a bit of a rough time recently.

Fruitloop how frustrating about your DH! I have to pretend to mine that we're just 'seeing what happens' rather than frantically counting days and examining CM. I think perhaps they feel that we should just want to BD with them all the time! I think they probably feel a bit irritated that we want to more at some times of the month and not necessarily because we find them irrestible!

I have achy boobs and AF isn't due for 6 days. But perhaps they are always achy and I just don't really notice normally. Heigh-ho.

MrsEi25 · 18/01/2008 14:35

hi girls
sorry to hear about your uncle sambrads {{{{hugs}}}}
bucky welcome back
fruitloop im sorry to hear you are havin probs with your DH not wantin to TTC
to be honest when we were TTC DD my DH was a bit put off towards the end and said more than once that he thought we should give up. i decided to put TTC on the back burner for a month or two to let things settle down while we moved house and got settled and no sooner did i put it out of my mind that i was up the duff!! maybe he is feeling alot of pressure and TBH alot of the 'romance' and spontanaeity is taken from sex when you start TTC. i dont mention to DH about cycles etc anymore and just come on here to gas about that. i find curiosity gets the better of him and he asks questions now!! i no that was a bit long winded but i hope it helps a bit in some way and you get back on track[smile {{{{hugs}}}}
hi to everyone else
xx ei xx

fruitloop79 · 18/01/2008 14:50

[big sigh]

Thankyou sydneyb and ei

It would be so nice if he just got involved. I'd love to chat to him and get all excited together

I'm so pleased I found you guys!

He's the same about getting married. He proposed last Nov but roles his eyes if I ever mention the wedding (which hopefully will be Aug 2009 so no hurry anyway) . He just doesnt seem to get excited about things like I do. Maybe it's a male thing?

Oh crap, I've just eaten a truck load of orange dark choc and two 'nice' biscuits. Didn't make me feel any better and now I just feel a sugar overload .

man I need to get a life!

Good luck to you all

mibbes · 18/01/2008 17:28

NOAM sorry to hear of your rollercoaster past few days - just sit down and relax - remember you are relaxing for 2 now !
Fruity sorry about unwilling dp . I also do the "see what happens" thing, he is unaware of obsessive behaviour !
Congrats colabottle ! any top tips apart from your dh having super-swimmers ?

mibbes · 18/01/2008 17:31

WOW another one as I typed ! Congrats owl ! two very late BFPs - had either of you you had BFNs prior to BFP I think Emmsy and I will be at the bottom of the list now but we have both had BFNs
