Congratulations Cupcakeandtea

congratulations cupcake fingers crossed for you

yellowflowers · 19/08/2008 19:46

Wow - that is such great news cupcake. I'm just back from few days away and was convinced was pregnant - excess saliva, sore boobs and feeling sick, but then yesterday and today have had spotting. Still have very sore boobs (usually this would stop as soon as spotting started) and also headache today but guess I have to come to terms with it not being my month. Did test today as well just to make sure.
Good luck everyone.

Congratulations cupcake..will keep everything crossed for you. It's so nice to have a BFP on here x

littlemissmischief · 19/08/2008 20:54

Evening everyone - Been getting some AF pains this evening and got terrible backache - really hope AF isnt on its way i will be so upset! Feel completely shattered and fluey too, my DP thinks it might be cos im stressing and worrying all the time, I think he might be right but i cant think of much else

RipMacWinkle · 19/08/2008 20:56

fab news cupcake! congratulations!

Hopefully now we have our first couple of bfp's there will be many more to come.

Been looking at the list and there's just so many people to get to the top before me. Sheesh. This is hte longest month ever....

Fingers crossed little miss that af will stay away.

Hello everyone else

cupcakeandtea · 19/08/2008 21:26

Awww, thanks for all your kind messages.

YellowFlowers, that is exactly what happened to me. Was absolutely convinced on Sun that AF had arrived and I'm still checking like mad to make sure i'm still only spotting but two of my main symptoms were bleeding gums and feeling sick that went away when i ate. Could all be coincidental but there might be something in it. I also had bad headaches and odd twinges in my right side.

MintChocAddict · 20/08/2008 00:32

Lots of congratulations Cupcake!

yellowflowers · 20/08/2008 07:50

Yeah, it's a bit more than spotting now. Thanks though... Am very pleaed for you though x

yellowflowers · 20/08/2008 12:03

Hi everyone,

Cupcake - congrats - its great to have some good news.

Yellowflowers and nervousal - sorry to hear rubbish news about periods - i'm pretty sure i will be joining you next month too as don't 'feel' any symptoms at all now.

have realised i have become a bit obsessed with TTc this month so am trying really hard to return to my 'if it happens, it happens' attitude as i was losing focus on other very important things in my life. That said, if i last til the weekend with no period, it will take a lot to stop me using my clearblue freebie!!!

anyone testing in next couple of days -fingers crossed !!

alfiemama · 20/08/2008 23:00

Hi everyone, can I join you
I am ttc for number 3 and on cd18/32 so will hopefully be bd tonight (sorry hope I have got the abbreviations correct long time since used them) oh and I am on cycle 2

First lo who is 4 (boohoo off to school Sept) took 5 years and is a clomd baby
lo number 2 who is 2 was natural and first time, so heres to hoping for number 3, I have 2 boys so would love a girl but would love and laff me rocks off if I had another boy.

Am I right in saying tonight is a good night for me?

Waiting2Exhale · 20/08/2008 23:43

Hi Alfiemama...great to see more people joining....happy bd...are you using opk to predict when you are ovulating?

Cupcake...WoW and congrats...am sooooo happy for you whilst at the same time . So wish it were me. Oh well will have to wait until Sunday to find out if I last that long...am soooo itching to pee on a stick its killing me. Symptoms so far now include feeling a little sick after eating, but that might just be due to over-eating also more EWCM which has a hint of yellow in it, sorry if this is tmi....has this happened to anyone else?

twoplease... am testing at the weekend as well, so look forward to seeing you online. How you feeling at the mo? Fantastic news you getting one of those freebie clearblue test things, I filled the form out yesterday so am hoping I get one for the weekend...that would be a fine thing [hmmm]. Not holding my breath. How long did it take you to receive your?

Yellowflowers and nervousal ... wishing you all the luck for june which is also a lovely month to have a baby .

Littlemissmischief... when is the b**h flo jo actually due to arrive....am praying she passes you by. It would be great to get a few more BFP this month.

lillypie · 21/08/2008 08:07

Good morning ladies

Well I'm out, AF arrived early this morning,two days early

Best of luck to the rest of you and I hope I don't see any of you next month

littlemissmischief · 21/08/2008 08:24

Hi Alfiemama (great name my DS is called Alfie)

W2E - your guess is as good as mine on the AF front could be tom, next month, next year... so all a bit of a guessing game! Have had no symptoms the last couple of days so am now convinced Im not but DP wants to be here when i pee on a stick so waiting till Sat (it is so hard when they are sat in my draw) It is his bday tom so hoping I have an extra gift for him

Sorry Lilliepie - Good luck for nxt month x

yellowflowers · 21/08/2008 09:14

AF properly got me this morning.

ForeverOptimistic · 21/08/2008 09:28

Congratulations Cupcake!

Sorry to hear about your AF, yellowflowers. Heres hoping for a June baby!

I am on cd14 so I suppose I should be getting down to some bd, I am just so lazy though.

twoplease · 21/08/2008 10:04

Morning - Hi to alfiemama and goodluck.

waiting2Exhale - i am thinking i might hang on til monday now, don't want to waste my test! Have been through the stage of thinking this was my month to now just wishing my period would start so I can get on with next month (and get it out of the way before going on holiday on monday)

The freebie came pretty quickly, about a week i think.

good luck tomorrow littlemiss, would be a lovely pressie and you clearly have iron willpower if you haven't tested with tests in the drawer - respect!!

alfiemama · 21/08/2008 10:07

Hi Everyone
Waitingtoexhale and littlemischief (step away from the pee sticks lol)

No Im not using those opks just trying to go off dates really but not really had any ewcm or none to write home about, so just bd every night hubby is knackered lol

Yellowflowers sorry af reared its very ugly head June babies are nice.

Ooh littlemischief another fellow Alfie lover, my name should really be alfieandarchiemama now and hopefully evie when she comes along or Charlie if another boy.

Can I just ask I was on the dreaded Diannette pill has anyone else had any feelings of sickness around ovulation time, last month I was 11 days late I was convinced the stork had paid a visit but about 10 negs later I finally believed I wasnt.

alfiemama · 21/08/2008 10:10

Hi twoplease (by the way you all have fab names) you have such willpower I gonna take shares out in the dreaded preg tests, this month I got the freebie so hoping its sign.

Congrats Cupcakeandtea you take care

twoplease · 21/08/2008 10:16

Can you bloody believe it?! nipped to the loo after posting last message and lo and behold, have got my period! so, be careful what you wish for if you are attempting reverse psychology like I was.

in for a June one then!!

alfiemama · 21/08/2008 11:23

Sorry af turned up twoplease, Junes a nice time for a month lots of lovely summer months with your new little one
