dh and I are having a last push at ttc. we are giving it either a year or another mc before we give up (haven't told gp ) so i have decided to reopen the anti-testing thread!

lol @ nunnie im fully concious thats its far to early to have any symptoms although yes i am peeing a little bit more than usual 3 pees in less than 2 hours.
We should both not look for symptoms and test again on the days we have decided upon. Strength in numbers!
Joycey im so glad to have been here when you got your bfp its lovely!!

nunnie · 18/03/2009 09:38

Yes shirleyc, lets do that, no more symptom spotting for me and no more testing until 23rd, (it would leave an odd number anyway!).

I want to still have hope but I just keep hearing negative, and December

Has anyone ever managed to get a BFP after getting a BFN? In the same month I mean.

shirleyc · 18/03/2009 09:54

same here but hey if we get bfn's theres still next month stay positive

nunnie · 18/03/2009 10:09

Exactly shirley and a nice drink at the weekend will be a nice consolation prize.

I like Christmas so a december baby will be great

Roll on April bedroom athletics.

shirleyc · 18/03/2009 10:10

lol id love a christmas baby it would be lovely!

Liskey · 18/03/2009 10:11

Congrats Joycey thats wonderful news

Yes Nunnie I have - i didn't get a BFP till 10 days overdue last year

nunnie · 18/03/2009 10:15

When are you too testing again if AF doesn't get us first?

Liskey · 18/03/2009 10:20

I'm holding out till the 23rd - when I'll be 6 days overdue (hopefullY) still spotting though

shirleyc · 18/03/2009 10:25

Im not testing again till the 28th at the earliest. If at that time im having af symptoms will hold out as long as i can!
In a way (will/may sound odd) i hope af does come because that will mean i know actual length of my cycle and can predict ovulation dates etc.

rainbowdays · 18/03/2009 11:27

Lissielou - just stalking you to asking if af arrived yet? Keeping fingers crossed for you here.

Joycey, congratulations!!!!

shirleyc, if you hold on 10 days too, we could indeed test together like you said.

Lovely chat with DP last night and despite all the negatives of TTC right, we carried on regardless! He is being practical about only having a 1 bed flat now but it's almost certainly in -ve equity so not worth thinking about moving before hand and I am quite sure we wouldn't be the first or the last to have a baby in a 1 bed flat!

I am wondering if one of those early tests might show something on Sunday, you know, mothers day and all that... restrain me.

shirleyc · 18/03/2009 15:59

lmao @ nunnie and your gel bra! no wonder they felt fuller!!

Lissie your symptoms are sounding hopeful!! Ive been to work got my tips, along with an easter egg from former manager yummy!! so i bought one for dh too mmmmm.

Its absolutley lovely outside i would have got burnt if i left it any longer! Have cleaned up all the dog mess in the garden, been to tescos, left toilet roll on the counter and didn't put it through the till! What made me forget that i needed loo roll! Have had such a productive day feel the best thing ive done in the last year is give up my game i have so much more time on my hands! (its a huge thing to me i was addicted normally played min 8 hours a day!)
