Hi again, been away for the weekend with DH (and friends) so short on MN access. Feeling the common pangs of AF, but this is good as it signals the start of TTC. Hoping for a BFP before DH leaves for Uganda in Jan

CWFXmas woo hoo... go get him, girl

Big sprinklings of baby dust for everyone.

AF arrived with a bang this morning but at least I will know where I am with cycles now I suppose, and maybe my norks will go back to their normal size and stop aching as they have done for the last 3 weeks

iloverosycheeks · 02/12/2008 09:34

Mornin' all - well I'm sad/glad for everyone who has got their AF - at least you know where you are. We are jst going for it - I will be knicker checking rather than ov testing and all that, will get into doing it 'properly' if nought happens in a few months. Cantwait - I am delighted to hear your DP has come round to your way of thinking!
Good luck everyone! - here's to lots of nooksters (thats what we call it ) over the festive period!

Gateau · 02/12/2008 09:57

Sorry you are sad about that Bratnav, but at least you can now start with a clean slate, if you know what I mean, and as iloveRosy says, you know where you are.
You're a couple of cycle days behind me, so we must keep in touch!

Gateau · 02/12/2008 10:44

Hi Raspberry,
I've just seen your post and yes I know who you are. You were very helpful to me on the May thread and I remember when you had your m/c. I was sad for you and I am glad to see you back on here.
I too have had two m/cs since DS (now 19 months old) so we're kind of in the same boat.
Are you TTC now? Which cd date are you on, if that's not too personal a question??! I'm on cd4.
Will be good to keep in touch.

bratnav · 02/12/2008 12:20

Definitely, also I have checked and I will not know if we have hit the jackpot until 29th at the earliest, so have decided to eat drink and be merry and sod it!

CD1 now (sorry, just for my own reference!)

Ruby01 · 03/12/2008 08:34

dear bratnav - sorry you are sad but agree atleast you know where you are now, I should be due my next AF on xmas day - that would be a nice day to find out but again cant get too excited about it beforehand.

The only upside for all of us is being able to enjoy all the festivities up to xmas.

cantwaitforxmas · 03/12/2008 09:05

Morning Ruby,

my next AF is also due on xmas day - it would be lovely to fall pregnant on holiday and find out on xmas day but if AF arrives I can have a very merry xmas and new year .

Gateau · 03/12/2008 09:18

Same boat as you two, canwait and Ruby.
Will find out on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day too.
At least if we get a big BFN there will lots of festivities around to keep our minds off it and our spirits high. And we can drown our sorrows too! (Don't mean to sound flippant - of course I'll be disappointed)

bratnav · 03/12/2008 10:46

And now we have been invited to a wedding on new years weekend, so that will be lovely

iloverosycheeks · 03/12/2008 11:12

I am due AF on the 19th December if 28 days but had 33 day cycle last month so now don't really know when I should expect it. Going to try and to fit in loads of nooksters this weekend as think thats when I will be ov - but DP is out on Saturday night and prob not home till really late, boo. It is such a busy time coming up I hope we are not to knacked for baby-making.
Mind you next ov round about NY and they do say thats why there are so many birthdays in September and October!!
and anyway it would be too hard to excuse not drinking in December,with nights out and office party etc - everyone would know pg straight off and I wouldnt like that - right! ramble over going to go and do some work!

bubblebell1 · 03/12/2008 11:24

hi girls... still no AF for me... god only knows whats wrong with me

still bding and keeping fingers crossed that something happens soon

wouldnt it be lovely if you girls got a BFP xmas morning

pinkie08 · 03/12/2008 11:43

Hi Girls

just wanted to say think i am out for August baby as spotting this morning.

My dd is a september baby and at this stage dont mind when we get one just want one so desperately, as am sure everyone else does.

Am feeling really despondent as only got this cycle of clomid pills left and the gynae has to refer me to a fertility specialist which no doubt will take ages and its all so depressing.

He has agreed to do the referral which i guess is good.

Not sure when would be due as not full Af yet

iloverosycheeks · 03/12/2008 13:45

Hi Pinkie - sorry you are feeling despondent I have no experience of what you are going through as never really 'tried' to have baby before. I am trying now and the thought has been creeping in that might not happen for me this time but hey it is good that we have this thread to keep spirits up and fingers crossed for each other... take care

bratnav · 03/12/2008 16:28

Sorry to hear you are despondent pinkie, I suppose with this there is the up-side that there is always next month.

My AF appears to have stopped after 1 1/2 days WTF???

pinkie08 · 03/12/2008 17:22

Thanks bratnav

yes thats the upside i just wish we could all get our BFPs what a lovely xmas pressie that would be for us all

Ruby01 · 04/12/2008 08:47

Gateau I totally agree - every time I get my AF its a reason to get back on the drink for a while - but fingers crossed we all have the xmas presents that we want

pinkie08 · 04/12/2008 16:40

Well Af got me so am due 1st Jan lets all hope for those xmas presents.

bratnav · 06/12/2008 13:05

It would be lovely to get a late Christmas pressie of a BFP.

VerifiedLU4097 · 08/12/2008 15:13

Bratnav!! Me too! 1.5 days of v.light AF at CD 27-28, then nothing!! Month before last AF at CD 31, last month, ovulated at CD 16 but got AF at CD 26. So now on CD31. How wierd. Oh and before anyone says, I'm not going to test until I'm way past possible AF time! I have jinxed myself before! I have no pre-AF symptoms either. Mind you if miracles happened (see earlier post about inappropriate hacking cough), it wouldn't be a Sept baby prob!!

bratnav · 09/12/2008 09:25

I know, I have talked about it with DP and he agrees that I should get ov tests for this month only, just to make sure that I am ov, assuming that I am, just carry on shagging

bratnav · 09/12/2008 09:37

Just ordered on ebay, 16 ov tests and 4 pg test for £1.99 plus P&P

Beachy1234 · 09/12/2008 09:47

Day 32- no real AF yet....

bratnav · 09/12/2008 12:58

So will you test??????

Soooos · 09/12/2008 16:28

Hello all -

I hope you don't mind if I join in

DP and I are TTC #1 - and are aiming for a September bean.... AF due 16 Dec so am currently mid way through 2WW.

First month of TTC tho, so I probably won't be that lucky, but trying to think postively - in every sense of the word!
