mrsdisorganised · 26/12/2008 11:16

Happy Christmas!!! Hope everyone had a good time
On the wait for imminent arrival of AF...no chance this month I don't think pg is on the cards Oh well try harder this month as I fear DH's patience will wear out!!

louisesh · 26/12/2008 11:46

Hi MRSDISORGANISED try and keep your chin up [i know its not alway that easy] know its hard to ensure you BD at the right times and ensure it doesn t become too much of a chore!!! Enjoy boxing day i m out with DH s family for a meal!!!!! Then more BD

louisesh · 28/12/2008 20:57

Hi All quick question???? Does anyone know how long it takes to get a BFP after BD? i know some tests can take 7-14 to show and i know it depends on the sensitivity of the tests and the ?mui????

Hope all well and had a nice xmas.

4everhopeful · 05/01/2009 11:53

hello ladies...see that this thread is a bit quiet.....hope im not a thread killer

well we had a fabulous time in india, went to our home town for the most part but also went to goa for three days which was amazing and mumbai for a few hours. Was used to 30 degrees every day, im glad i missed the big freeze over here!

Also did a lot of BD in the first week of the holiday. Now on my 2ww (or should that be 1ww). AF due to visit me sat 17th jan. Was a bit naughty and tested on sunday using a First Response test which says that you can test up to 6 days early. It was negative. Not really feeling pregnant, apart from tiredness which could just be the jet lag, and slight nausea which feels different from last time, so im guessing it could just be the ends of a bit of delhi belly

would be great to hear from the other ladies and any newbies....!

Hi SABS glad you had a fabulous time sounds lush oh , the heat!!!! Only 3 weeks to we go to egypt.

Fingers crossed for you but think you know when ....don t you?

Im plodding on ... Lots of BD from 25th dec,[which was "fertile" time!!!] sure had implantation bleeding about 7-10 days later, had intermittent metallic taste in my mouth and nausea.

Due AF tomorrow and of course been testing all BFN.... Know it could be too early but???

Sabs1981 · 15/01/2009 15:35

egypt...wow, lucky u! whereabouts are you going? i went cairo a few years ago, i loved it!

any sign of AF???

i was naughty again and took a test today (clear blue digital) and it was postitive!!!! took another test (first response again) and it was positive too

you guys on here are the first people to know after DH...i feel so different from last time...so scared and anxious and not quite wanting to believe it...will make an appointment with GP next weeek if my period definately doesnt appear and then for a 7 week scan at EPAU...

OP posts:
louisesh · 15/01/2009 19:53

WOW very plesed for you !!!

I m still stuck in limbo STILL . Still no AF 2 days late [although last month was a 33 day cycle which would mean i m due on sun!!!] but still BFN!!! Don t think i am and if so are contemplating looking at adption as can t go through this every month and had all the signs and symptons this month and still nothing!!!Piss.d off with it all!!

However V.happy for you x

Sabs1981 · 16/01/2009 10:36

aw louisesh so sorry to hear you're not feeling too good...dotn give up though, theres still hope if you'e having a long cycle and AF is not due until sunday....

thinking of you...

OP posts:
louisesh · 16/01/2009 15:52

Hi SABS you feeling ok?

Still nothing HATE this situation would rather know 1 way or the other!!!!! Off out to get wrecked tonight as both DH and me fed up with this and other stuff [car failed its mot needs £800 of work] been a crap week at work feel the need for much wine1!!!

MOAN,MOAN,MOAN sorry!!!

Anyhow definatley very pleased for you.
Again i ve convinced myself i m not. sure the tests should be picking it up now, although if i m not due to sunday again may be nothing to past the same!!!{there again if my cycle is 33 days now will probably mean we BD too early!!!] HO HUM!!!! Going to Hurgurda, went to Cario and Luxor last year along with Sharm El Sheik. Love all of Egypt.

Hey lou did you have a good night on friday? and what a bummer about your car! and moan away, im here to listen! Seems like its only me and you on this thread anyway! any luck today? Hoping AF didnt visit you. How was Luxor? Is that where Valley of the Kings is? Would love to go there, but cant afford anywhere now!

OP posts:
louisesh · 18/01/2009 20:06

Hi SABSS* Hope alls well with you.This time we re off to Hurgurda, went to Cairo and Luxor last year had a 2 day trip there based from Sharm El Sheik all of it was FABULOUS VERY VERY HOT 40 degrees !!!! Yes went to the Valley of the kings etc... AMAZING!!!

Kinda wish wasn t going on this trip as only booked last mibnute in Nov following my MMC and got to havr the time off work unpaid as my A.L doesn t start again to april so will loose about £600 in wages but hey ho!!!!!

No Af still confused.... Not sure if my AF may not be due to 20th jan!!!! Still showing as BFN accepting now it isn t happening this month.Thinking about it think bleeding was ovulation bleeding which i ve never experienced before.

How about you? Have you told people yet? Have you arranged a scan yet?

Will be in touch???

mrsdisorganised · 18/01/2009 20:14

Sabs! Congratulations, I'm so pleased for you
Louisesh don't give up hope...it will happen! Enjoy your time away
Onto my 2ww, which will drive me round the bend but 'heyho'! Will busy myself and risit the urge poas too soon

Hope everyone else is ok....although there doesn't seem to be much movement on this thread xx
