Oh my God, Oh my God, Oh my God..............

just making breakfast, saw the freebie digital clearblue pg test in the drawer that I won on mumsnet...couldn't resist the urge and guess what............

BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unbelievable. Have the most pants cycle ever, and get lucky......there is hope for everyone!

aggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Haven't even told dh.....he's just gone to work, hope I can wait until he gets home to surprise him!!!!

Of course....will now spend everyday until the scan in a permanent state of panic and worry.

OMG DD, that's brilliant news CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

xxxx

DETOX - YEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought it when I looked at your chart last night but didn't want to say! FF must have gone mad as it was so obvious!

Well done you, and how exciting to tell your dh later! yippee!

Try not to worry too much before the scan, even though I know that is very very hard! There are quite a few of us on here now who have been through the whole knicker checking 2nd attempt, and those horrible early weeks to offer support. Perhaps if you go into the mw and say how much you are worrying (think my tears helped!) you will get an early scan at around 9 weeks?

I'm really really happy for you!!!!!!!!!

Frosty - don't give up! Big hug for you - a new year BFP would be nice hey! (would that make a september baby? I've heard they're the best kind !)

Dawn - what time is the amnio? xxxxxxxxx

I'm feeling loads better today - plain toast and milk for me! lol! Either that or I will buy some shares in Gaviscon!

OMG detox-just looked at your chart and saw the green line. WOW! Fantastic news!

Hope all OK.

congratulations detox

take one day at a time and think positive xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ChocEclair-I will be onto an October baby then November and then we will have to have a break from TTC as neither of us feel that having a B'Day too near Christmas is going to be much fun.

Better go as girls are up to no good.

detox - I knew it! So, so happy for you . How wonderful to have an Xmas BFP!!!

CE - Ugh - sorry you've been sick, you poor thing - how miserable for you. Hope you're able to enjoy everything else in between. Sounds like you've been having a good time, though. I can't believe we'll have nine-month-old babies this time next year either (God willing - I have to say that or my grandmother would never forgive me for tempting fate )

Bluestar - Hope Zephyr is healing. Bet he looks like a real toughie now . Richard is totally uninterested in anything but sleeping, eating and cuddles at the moment. I think his tough old tomcat days are behind him.

frosty - adding my words to CE's - here's some more babydust - and to all the bonking ladies.

Dawn - thinking of you for the amnio today, and will check back later. Congrats on the move - gosh, what a year it's been for you!

Thanks so much for all your support this year, everyone. I can't say how much it's meant just seeing all your names and messages -it's always a comfort if I'm feeling a bit low, even when I don't have time to post.

Happy New Year and big un-Mumsnetty hugs to everyone.

xx

Oops - can't believe I forgot majormoo - huge congratulations to you! So glad you were able to have the birth you wanted. And Jesse's a lovely name

Thank you everyone - have managed to keep it quiet from dh so far....have just popped into town and got us a nice dinner and will surprise him with the test then!!

Think I am due 11th Sept - my cycles are waaaaay off the normal 28 days they use, so have put my lmp back by a week and this gives me the 11th.

Am going to do my best to take 1 day at a time, and not make any gp or mw appointments for a few weeks as I don't want to tempt fate. Fingers crossed this one's going to hang on.

Any news from Dawn yet?

Frosty, don't give up - just keep trying. Dd is born early Jan so don't worry about due dates, just relax into the b'ding

CE - glad you're feeling better. Those baby movements are just the best aren't they?

MJIM - have a great evening. 14 weeks? Where did that time go?

Hi Everyone,

Congrats Detox!

AF arrived again for me on Saturday. What a wonderful way to see the new year in!

Bluestar-you and me both mate. Sorry AF got you too. I am currently CD 2 of cycle number 968. We will get there won't we?

HC

Frosty - I'm counting today as CD2 too , as AF didn't start properly until the night of Saturday.
Hopefully you're right and this will be our year. I don't about you, but I had a christmas filled with people asking if I'm broody, or when we'll have a DC, for their DC to play with...yada yada. I wanted DH to tell his family that we are having problem and he won't. I've told my mum and sis.

Detox - sorry, for sounding a bit down! I am happy for you! And I'm praying for a lovely PG for you!

Hi all,

Had amnio today and what a bizarre experience that was!!

They didn't tell me that they don't give a local anaesthetic for the amnio, so when they put the needle in, I was thinking to myself "this anaesthetic is taking a long time to administer and a bit more painful than last time" so imagine my surprise when she said that the amnio was done!! It only took about a minute and was a lot less stressful than the CVS. One needle instead of two and slightly less painful as they actually perform the procedure.

I have had absolutely no pain at all since the procedure (I'm touching wood as we speak...), no cramps or anything so hoping all this is a good sign.

They did say that I may even get the results on Friday, instead of Monday, so that's also good news. Trying to keep positive and hoping that maybe our luck is going to change with this little monkey for the new year. He was holding both feet with his hands which was funny to see!! Heartbeat was still nice and strong, before and after the procedure and it was amazing how clear the spine was to see, couldn't see it that much at the 12 week scan. A lot obviously happens in 4 weeks!!

DD, so looking forward to hearing how you break the news to your DH!!!

Thanks for all your good luck messages ladies!!

detox supercalifragalistic news hun...

CD10 and no +OPK yet.....I get an awful feeling i missed it and it happened during my AF which its done before....hope to god not or I'll be sad a whole month !!!

dawnas pleased all went well for you and wasnt too uncomfortable xx

sorry frosty and bluestar its a real bummer isnt it.....keep thinking positive, we will get there eventually xx

Im not in chatty mood tonight, so im off for a shower, congrats again detox

Love to all

D xx

DawnAS-hope you get the results by Friday. Try and rest tomorrow if you can as you might feel a bit crampy then.

Detox-you told your DH yet?

Dawn-you may be like me and your OV day has switched from Day 8 to Day 13/14.

Bluestar-thing is, I already have children so am not subjected to those chilling comments about TTC but have been there. My school mum friend had her 4th baby on Boxing Day and one of my BF's is due on the 11th January with her 3rd and I still feel most of how you feel inside even though I have 2 lovely girls. Did thow some bibs out today as I feel sure they wouldn't be used so no point in keeping them.

Better go before I bring the thread down.

Done some BDing to just keep positive lastnight, hope your right frosty and its just changed in the cycle, i was feeling down yesterday after the -OPK but that has now past, it does happen though at some point through the cycle as im sure it does to most TTCers !!

Lets just keep going, its great that we can all support each other xxx

How did DH take the news detox

Love to all

D xx

Dawni-I have taken great hope from Detox's chart as it does not confirm any OV day like the chart I had the other month which left me thinking I was on the menopause. So, am going to try and not get too upset about the OPK results and BD all month once AF has buggered off! Once I am back on the saddle so to speak I will possibly feel more positive as I will be actually doing something. Keep sending the troups in.

Detox-was DH ecstatic?

DawnAS-how are you today? Have you a few niggly cramps?

Hope everyone else is OK.

Hello ladies,

Glad you're feeling more optimistic today Frosty!!

I am fine thank you, no cramps at all and had a very comfortable nights sleep, not like after the CVS where I had to lay on my back the whole time and couldn't even roll onto my side. The only bit that's slightly sore is where they sprayed the plastic plaster stuff!!

I have to admit that I was expecting some cramping, but I've really had nothing - although the Consultant did say that as I only had an hour or so cramping with the CVS, that I may well feel nothing at all.

Frosty, did you have a local anaesthetic with your amnio? I read online that they normally give this, but they didn't for me. Good job I didn't know before-hand otherwise I would have panicked I think!!

xxx

No I didn't, the consultant said they never numb the area so was prepared. Glad you are OK.

HC

Hey Frosty,

Think I might have spoken too soon about the cramps... I've been feeling very odd for about the last 30 minutes... It's not specifically cramping that's coming and going, just a dull ache in my lower back and I also feel a bit sick... But I don't think the sickness is related...

So I'm going to have a lie-down I think...

xxx

Just rest as much as you can. Sounds OK to me. If the cramping gets very bad then phone the unit.

Another -OPK.......Ive decided we'll just BD every other day what ever the OPKs say xx
