thanks j2lo - it helps, but i whenever i get a bfn it stays that way - im still hanging on with the tinest thread of hope but it is definatly getting thinner the longer i hang!!! and while im sta here typing im pretty sure i can feel it coming! i would rather wake up to a bfp!

anyway enough bringing down the mood on the thread! with all these bfp there so much to be happy about !!!!!!!!!

good luck woollyjo - hope this is your month and anyone else hanging on for the bfp - including me!! xxxxxxxxxx

Waiting2Exhale · 22/10/2008 21:07

Hi ladies...thank, thanks, thanks, sooooo much for all the good wishes....as I too have had a m/c at only 7wks pg, am hoping this one sticks and am not getting too excited. "JLo2* ff seems to think my due date will be 2nd July, so no, it doesn't appear as though we'll be having a baby the same month .

All the best to everyone else testing soon. If its ok, will continue to lurk until I feel more confident about this little bean if thats ok

Wishing · 22/10/2008 21:11

of course it is waiting - bring us some luck!! i have everything crossed for you - i feel its a sticky bean for sure!! xxxxxxx

hi bexaa, you're not a dingbat. I hold my hands up and admit I tested 7dpo aswell. BFN but as you might have read later changed to BFP 6 days before AF. Hang on in there x This seems to be a lucky thread

smallone · 23/10/2008 08:42

Thanks, I'm off to the docs this am to start my testing. Its is a 24hr urine collection. Yes all of it! I am given an attractive 3ltr container for it too. Still has a tiny hole tho so had to go out and buy a measuring jug last time

Feeling a bit more upbeat today, and I get to see my lovely GP who I'm sure will say all the right things. (think I may be starting a crush )

Good luck to everyone testing

mickeylou · 23/10/2008 08:44

Oh well, i am back to the bottom of the list . am actually quite amazed at how my body has tricked me over the past two weeks. symptom spotting is bad! determined not to do it again this cycle!! have updated the list - hope it right. ps - ow!! forgot how much af hurts when i'mm not on the pill!!

Hello to all

can I join you too, I was on how about june babay thread, but its been five days since i left the last massage freezed there and no one put any new massage. any way I might be there for july baby too so I just wanted to join if you don't mind. For those who doesn't have idea about me my normal cycle is 28 days Iam on CD25 and TTC18 monthes. good luk to every one. congratulation to all who got BFP, and everything crossed for those who are waiting to make a test.

LittleCheese · 23/10/2008 10:29

well i still have no sgn of AF apart from my terrible mood swings but still got a BFN this morning Im never ever late though, i hate all this uncertainty

yellowflowers · 23/10/2008 10:35

welcome sans04. Also littlecheese - I agree, it;s the uncertainty that is the worst.

Two friends have announced pregnancies this week. Nearly every single one of my friends is now pregnant or has a baby - I was in tears last night over the unfairness of it all.

Oh yellowflowers please don't be sad,your turn WILL come.Sometimes it just takes a little longer

squally · 23/10/2008 10:53

Just been reading this lucky thread, can I join too. TTC#3 and on CD19. DH and I have been trying to decide if we wanted to TTC and we made up our minds definitely on Sunday after looking at photos of DS at 3 days old. I got very broody immediately so we decided to go for it, only sunday was CD15 so we think we've missed the boat this cycle. It's just that i've been reading this thread and got up to get a drink and got a very metallic taste in my mouth.. must be mind playing tricks but have got excited about maybe BFP next weekend.
bit of tecnophobe so not sure how to put on details, sorry.

Hi all

Can you believe how lucky this thread is. All those BFPs are just going to keep on coming

Have got a clomid headache today and have to drive to Yorkshire to see my parents after school pick up today yuck!!!

Have found new ov predictor on my monthly cycles and it suggests that because my cycle varies from 28 to 34 potentially fertile days from tues this week to thurs next.

So am going to pretend its honeymoon time and bd everyday til thurs and then go back to everyother. Surely cant miss crucial days with that

baby dust to all

squally · 23/10/2008 12:25

Thanks Mickeylou, and good luck to everyone. Am being a bit slow and can't understand all the abbreviations (is that the word). Could some one translate. Thanks.

smallone · 23/10/2008 13:03

Phew pinkie thats alot of BDing!

Squally there is an acronym list under useful stuff in the top margin, this should shed a little light for you!

Yellowflowers - just think how jealous of you they will be when you have a new baby and they have a fractious toddler! (I know I am of other newborn-mums)

GP today was fab, now got 3 3ltr containers to fill! He used words like "hens teeth" and that he would be "lucky" to see this sort of tumour once in his entire career so am feeling more hopeful. Might even be able to manage a bit of BDing at the weekend ...well it is our 5yr wedding anniversary

spats · 23/10/2008 14:50

yellow - my friend has just announced she is pg. Didn't even know she was trying and my legs felt like lead when i heard the news. I am lucky i have 2 DS, but i still make me really p**d off!!!!

lots of BD needed this weekend, but i know i still wont be pg, too many people i know are so i feel fate wont let it be my turn yet. I so want a summer baby also as my other 2 are feb and april. CD12 today so the fun/chore begins x

pinkie08 · 23/10/2008 17:05

smallone

Am pleased for you that GP is fab.

I know its loads of bding but have tried the every other day thru ovualtion time so might as well give this a go.

DHs count isnt low so it shouldnt make a difference.

Wishing · 23/10/2008 17:15

hi all - hope everyon well - i was the same yellow flowers, was so upset last night i hate this af still not arrived, darent test again as cant face another bfp!! i have noticed huge amounts of sticky white cm down there this aft after being to toilet so have no idea what is going on - constipation as also set in - can i really be imagining all these syptoms!??

pinkie08 · 23/10/2008 17:24

Hi all

My opk gone +ive am def.bding for the next few nights like sperm meets egg plan. it says then rest one day then start again.

Guess into the 2ww now that thats happened yeah but arghhhh.

My dh will think xmas is here

Baby dust to all

yellowflowers · 23/10/2008 17:51

thinking of you wishing - I imagine symptoms every month - this month there are none though. Not yet anyway x

OP posts:
HomeintheSun · 23/10/2008 18:15

Wishing.. I don't wanna encourage symptom spotting but I've had a look on a web site for early pregnancy symptoms and increased CM and constipation are two of them. hope this is a good sign for you, good luck.

Wishing · 23/10/2008 18:15

thanks yellowflowers - hugs to you too!!

LollysMum1 · 23/10/2008 20:30

Only just catching up with all the BFPs! That's great news - congratulations everyone! Here's hoping this thread stays very lucky for all of us. I've got 9 more days to wait but trying to not think about pregnancy or symptom spot. Apart from I keep getting sore boobs on and off. But then that happened last time and it all ended in disappointment. So focussing on other things, or trying to!
