Symptom spotting - not due for at least another 3 days (only had one cycle since m/c in June so not quite sure) but just caved and did a HPT. BFN obviously.

But - waking most nights to go to the loo (which I never do) and could smell the red bull that someone was drinking near me on the bus the other morning. Am also feeling v sicky of an evening (had that with last pg, but clearly didn't end well )

I promised DH I'd try not to get so obsessed about getting pg again after the m/c but it's very difficult!!

Anyone else need to stay away from the clearblue for a few more days?

Still waiting for AF here too Nelix, although the witch looks likely as I did a test yesterday and a BFN again.

Same time again next month ladies (except for Nelix, obviously, who is going to get a beautifully clear BFP tomorrow ).

Hey Nelix - am still checking in - and will of course be launching the home for those with no willpower in a couple of weeks! (CD6 now..and clearly not counting ) Happy to stay as long as anyone's here to talk to!

So fingers crossed for BFP tomorrow!! I am suitable impressed by your strength (and how's the sitting room look?)

Funtime - bugger. She's a witch alright. You must try and distract me next month.

littlemiss - welcome

Thanks for the welcome and letting me tag along, I really am struggling with this whole ttc stuff.. it doesnt help im surrounded by pregnant people and really want to talk to people about it but me and dp have decided not to tell anyone we are trying cos everyone wants me to have another and thinks it will happen the 1st time DP looks at me (little do they know hey) cos of last time it happened in 3 weeks of being together! Think DP is at the ed of his tether with me as he cant be right for being wrong... Just all so confusing and with not having an af date to keep me focused is making harder
Fingers crossed for all the others too x x

nelix2000 · 14/08/2008 08:28

hey sparky yay glad this thread is still going at least till we all get there!....cd30 and d-day! I have peed in a cup (tmi) but my partner worked a nightshift last night and I promised I would not test until she got home...so I have to wait!!! lol its killing me! Keep counting! its not that long a wait now!

Hey littlemiss welcome!i know damn those pregnant people lol! i see babies every way I look!! I am in the same boat not telling anyone..although people are guessing....i dont plan on telling anyone until after my 12 weeks scan if/when it happens!take it slow and try and enjoy it. It so planned with me and DP (female) because sperm isnt just "there"....if it was it would make the process less clinical!.....will check back later with results!...eeek...I dont want to test incase its a BFN! lol!

littlemissmischief · 14/08/2008 08:34

Nelix - wow at your will power! I dont think I could wait!
We dont want to tell people cos I dont want them to all get their hopes up and I want to wait till after 12 weeks too so know how you feel! Thank God for MN i would loose my sanity otherwise!
My fingers are tightly crossed for you today please come back with some good news and a BFP to give me hope. No pressure lol

nelix2000 · 14/08/2008 11:13

BFN and period pains...not looking good here but hey always next time which is only a matter of days away now no point in stressing over it...and there is still a chance as we did test one day before AF due so def waiting for another few days before we test again!

SparkyMalarky · 14/08/2008 12:00

Bummer - sorry nelix. Completely agree...we're all just days away from success

littlemissmischief · 14/08/2008 12:34

So sorry Nelix - Good luck for next month! Cant wait to see all these BFP!!!!

funtimewincies · 14/08/2008 15:22

Officially out now, the witch has arrived complete with broomstick and familiar!

Sorry about the BFN nelix. We're due a plethora of BFPs next month now - has anyone yet worked out which day they'll be testing?

SparkyMalarky · 14/08/2008 15:41

Will you judge me if I say yes....

littlemissmischief · 14/08/2008 17:42

Sorry funtimewinchies.. Defo next month for you all im sure maybe the red witch could give us a spell to help like standing under a full moon etc... Ok i know im insane! Anything to take my mind of this hell tho!

nelix2000 · 14/08/2008 18:03

I still have a glimmer of hope....AF due now...will take it one day at a time....but I "know" she is enroute.....but thats life! we shall all start again!!!!

littlemissmischief · 14/08/2008 18:41

Ohhh Nelix everything crossed for you...Stay away red witch!!! Damn woman!!!! keep us informed, trying to take my mind off mine but concentrating on all of you!

nelix2000 · 15/08/2008 08:26

well no sign today....i usually start in the morning but whn you are waiting for something who would know!......grrr...I wanna know lol one way or another...the next 3-4 days are sooo important but seem so far away!

littlemissmischief · 15/08/2008 08:31

Ahh Nelix you poor thing, it makes you feel in such turmoil doesnt it, just think in the long run 3/4 days is not too bad (i know it feels like it) and just think how far youve come already I have everything crossed for you and will be back on tonight to see your progress!! As for me still feeling sick and have constant stomach cramps but wondering if I have some kind of bug, still dont know when to test or when to excpect the witch, that is the most frustrating bit for me! Might start a thread actually see if anyone has any ideas! DP admitted last night he really think I am this time, dont know whether thats good or a bad thing for the let down? Hopefully being at work today will take my mind of it for a bit

SparkyMalarky · 15/08/2008 09:29

oooh Nelix - we always said you were one of the likely ones..fingers crossed
