Trixel · 30/07/2009 00:16

babyinacorner · 30/07/2009 13:46

Hi ladies, just checking in to say hello!

Am on day 4 today so the peeing on sticks will begin soon - I'm going for a different tactic this month, not going to try at all apart from the two peak days -hopefully get some bding in on the high days but not going to force it. Have also booked in for some acupuncture next monday and another reflexology session the week after.

Any news from engelbart?

Hey baby, glad to hear you're feeling more relaxed! Just about to go out and buy a test, still no AF. Fingers crossed! Feel really really nervouse, dread seeing that single line (as we all know).

Trixel · 30/07/2009 14:47

hey engel - have you bought it? have you done it?

cyncan · 30/07/2009 14:53

hi ladies!! sorry about the non-participation!! dh and I are just having very stressful days, too much work, very frustrating and too moody to even try bding. CD19 today.. expecting peak this weekend, hopefully things will pick up and we will be getting some action!!

Engel!! All the luck to you!!!!!!! AF STAY AWAY!!!

xoxo to everyone!

Vikks · 30/07/2009 16:09

Trixel ? The lap was to see if I had any blockages, they already knew that I wasn?t ovulating. But the lap and dye showed that my tubes were all clear and healthy. So after all that, (in theory) I should be able to get PG this month. I?m still waiting on AF, can?t wait to get started on my next cycle; I feel quite positive for a change!
Thanks for telling me your story; I can?t imagine what you must have been through with your MCs. I?m sure our BFP are right around the corner. X

Engelbart ? Good luck

cyncan · 30/07/2009 16:35

Hi Vikks!! That is the right attitude!! Staying positive will give us the highest chances of getting BFPs!!

engelbart · 30/07/2009 19:28

Well did a test and it's a BFP!!

I think DH and I cutting out alcohol and caffeine plus me lying down for 30 mins after sex swung it this month.

Good luck everyone. I'll be following you all on this thread waiting for you all to get a BFP

Trixel · 30/07/2009 20:23

engel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that's brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so pleased for you!

babyinacorner · 30/07/2009 20:43

Fab news Engelbart -well done.
Did you have/do you have any symptoms??

engelbart · 30/07/2009 21:19

Thanks baby and Trixel!

I had what I thought were AF symptons (cramps) about a week before AF due but then they sort of disappeared. About a week after ovulation I had a raging thirst and was really really tired. Must admit I did do some ebay cheapy tests on Sunday (11 days post ovulation) and did get a faint line. But didn't want to believe it was a BFP until I tested with a 'proper' brand name test.

Vikks · 30/07/2009 21:28

Oh my god!!!!!!!! I?m so happy for you Engelbart, congratulations! x

cyncan · 31/07/2009 04:12

Engel!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! Now you need to let us all know what was your tactic!!!!!

YEAAAY!!!! Finally one BFP!!

salander · 31/07/2009 08:17

Yessssss!!!! Thats brilliant, engel, so thrilled for you, congrats!!!
Aw. Thats so fab.

salander · 31/07/2009 09:17

By the way- Kat, v nice to have a TTC twin! although not much chance this month, still on high days, still w dental abscess, managed to do the deed once and now DH has fecked off for a boys weekend no doubt over my peak days! Think will write it off and start fresh next month. Although given lots of hope by engels lovely news.

cyncan · 31/07/2009 13:19

Yes, really put my hopes up with Engel's BFP too! This month though, DH and I are really not feeling it... have been fighting .

CD 20 today, no peak yet, I had to open up a new box in the middle of the cycle. But won't be bding anyway..

Horraaay for ENGEL!

salander · 31/07/2009 13:42

{hugs} cyncan, thats rotten. hope things get better.

cyncan · 31/07/2009 14:42

thanks salander ! I am still trying to keep smiling

Can't wait to hear all the details from Engel !!

NewMember · 31/07/2009 17:02

Fantastic news ... congrats

Vikks · 31/07/2009 17:49

Engelbart - We must have more details..........

I'm CD30! And still no AF, it's no fun when you know you're not PG. I hate all this waiting.
Just bought some Pre-Seed.... anyone else tried it?

engelbart · 31/07/2009 20:01

Thanks for the congratulations everyone, its still sinking in!

I really think the zero alcohol, zero caffeine and lying in bed for at least 30 mins with my bum on a pillow swung it this month. I bedded every other day on my high days and on both peak days and the final high day. Oh and DH stopped drinking alcohol too for the whole month we were trying to conceive.

cyncan- sorry to hear you and your DH aren't getting on well at the moment Is it the pressure of ttc do you think?

Vikks hope you get your AF soon so you can get started again this month!

hello to everyone else, really hoping this month will be your month!
