Gaaahhh sorry to hear this again ShayeraHol
I would say 'it'll happen' but people have been saying that to me for months.

Just went to get a test. Now I wonder if there's any point me doing it now or waiting until tomorrow. I may as well know either way, right? But I don't have FMU!

ShayeraHol · 30/12/2008 14:19

Thanks beanie - tough, isn't it! Never thought I'd reach the end of the year without anything.

I'd wait until tomorrow - if you do it now and it's neg, then no way of knowing if it's because of the lack of FMU. But easy for me to say, less easy to actually wait!

beanieb · 30/12/2008 14:21

lol - I was just about to go and do it!

Hope you're ok, though I know me asking doesn't make it any better

All we can do is hope for the best for the next year I guess. I have my fertility thing in a few weeks.

Molliemooma · 30/12/2008 14:40

Shayer I promise I will never whisper anything to you again So sorry you couldn't finish the year on a high
Beanie Not sure what to think about all the goings on with you and your cycle and monitor? Try and hang on a couple more days before testing if you can (who I am kidding )
Comma Hello and welcome, sorry to hear about your m/c like Jaamy said you are in good company in here.
Insertsomethingwittyhere Hello and welcome to you too, I really hope two newbies will mean more good luck for our thread. I hope your stay here is short (In the nicest possible way!)

Nothing much to report from me, think I am about to OV, but feeling really chilled out as still not TTC at the moment til February, it's very strange watching everyone obsessing like I do every month almost like an out of body experience

Congrats Vjay

Think i am out of the running this month have had my obligatory pink smearing cd27 so guess af will be here cd29 bah humbug was really hopeful that it might just be

Ah well onwards and upwards, waiting for the fertility specialist to contact me.

Wishing you all a Happy new Year for tomorrow. Will update my dates when af actually gets here.

ClaireDeLoon · 30/12/2008 21:45

Very sorry shayera and also pinkie sorry it seems like she's on her way.

Many congratulations VJay!

Insertsomethingwittyhere · 30/12/2008 22:31

Hello again .

Oooh many many many congratulations VJay! How lucky you are!
Molliemooma, I really hope that there is more luck on all these threads too.
Pinkie and Shayera, I'm really sorry to hear that 2008 wasn't your year

Quick question : Do you all feel like your torn in two when you hear that someone is pregnant/just given birth, or is that just me? My sister called the other week to tell me that she got a BFP after only 2 tries. I try to be really happy for her, and I am, but inside I'm bubbling with jealousy . And then yesterday at work, we got a call for a woman in labor, -I'm a paramedic- we got there just in time to deliver her third baby boy. I passed the most beautiful baby to her, after a really quick and lovely birth and tried hard to congratulate her, but it was like my throat seized for a moment, and I just couldn't I was so jealous. How bad is that?

Anyway, on a positive note, I'm ovulating atm so fingers crossed!

Comma2 · 31/12/2008 00:05

Not much, beanieb....sorry to hear. It was a good theory though (my name is Anne Elk...).

I am still spotting on and off, monitor claims I should get period today, CD 25. Usually comes 27-28 though, but who knows.

Comma2 · 31/12/2008 00:08

Insertsomethingwitty: oh, perfectly normal. Not many that don't feel like that.

The only thing worse I figure is that forlorn look that old ladies sometimes get when they look at babies...uh.

beanieb · 31/12/2008 08:57

monitor says low
Says I should have had my period yesterday but still no sign.
Test says not pregnant.

Sigh.

pinkie08 · 31/12/2008 11:23

beanieb

keep up the bding am sure i read somewhere that this happened to someone and when she got her BFP she had conceived really late in the previous cycle. while no af there is always hope for that BFP

insertsomethingwitty
I dont think any of us feel any differently. Last weekend my mum said a cousin has had a baby, conceived the weekend of my wedding. Do i care i have started shrugging a shoulder and saying things like "yes well other people can have them cant they" that usually shuts them up.

I also find it very different to when one of us on the threads gets a BFP as we are all supporting each other and therefore the feeling of congrats is totally real as we all know each others stories its impossible not to be pleased for each other.

Anyway, sorry for long rant,

theboob · 31/12/2008 12:15

beanieb keeping my fingers crossed for you ,i had 3 BFN until i got a BFP on the same cycle
well trying to keep up with the BD but getting bored now
started to get un romantic and we both know the only reason were doing it

good luck for the new year everyone i really hope we all get BFP's really soon

beanieb · 31/12/2008 12:47

Am pretty certain there will be no shagging for me tonight, we're staying with my OHs brother and sister in law so I wouldn't want to be doing the bold thing at theirs. Plus I feel sure my period will come. Am resigned to the fact that this has ben a cycle without ovulation.

beanieb · 31/12/2008 14:03

ey up, here it comes. Pink spotting. Guess tomorrow will be CD 1!

Comma2 · 31/12/2008 16:58

BFN for me too--monitor says 2 days over, but still 2 days till normal lenght of cycle. But sure expensive early-test must be right, so will go ahead with NYE celebration and moving of furniture.

Molliemooma · 31/12/2008 18:23

Just a quick one to say Happy New Year to you all and wishing you all many many BFP's

Thanks for all your support this year

Evening ladies,
Am just popping in very quickly to wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR. Lots of babydust to all - am hoping we'll be talking on an antenatal thread this time next year.....x
Will catch up with everyone tomorrow because I'm just about to go out.

ClaireDeLoon · 31/12/2008 21:12

Hey all - hope the BFN's today turn into BFP's in a day or two.

Is anyone else feeling they'll be glad to see the back of 2008? We just seem to have had such a shit year, and DP's grandmother died yesterday. Everytime we start to feel happier again something else crap happens. TBH even not conceiving is way down my list of priorities now, I haven't even been back for the last set of blood test results. Meh I fell like I'm always here moaning and bringing this thread down. Here's to 2009 let it be a good year for us all!!!

beanieb · 01/01/2009 14:58

happy new year everyone. So sorry to hear about your DP's Grandma Claire, hope we all get our bfps soon x

Claire Am sorry to hear that. Hope the next couple of weeks pass as smoothly as possible.
Beanie So sorry to see you back at the top again .

beanieb · 01/01/2009 16:29

Am trying to be optimistic. I have my fertility thing at the end of January, so hopefully something good will come from it.

My period has started so heavily I am hoping it will be a short one and I can start TTC with added oomph. I would love it if I was one of those people who suddenly fall pregnant just before they see the specialist.

SparklyPseudonym · 01/01/2009 16:35

I did type to ask how you were but then I realised it was a stupid question to ask when I know how it feels to see another month added on...It would be fantastic to fall pregnant before your appointment. I'm thinking of organising some private investigations at Spire...am still so cheesed off with my GP not sending me to EPU when I was bleeding and cramping at 11 weeks and I know it'll take forever to be seen (and that's if they can be bothered to fill the forms in for a referral!) Hopefully the same will happen here. We WILL have bumps/babies in 2009!!
