Step away from the first response and noone will get hurt... PART 2

[nunnie]

New thread ladies. For those that don't know this is a thread to discourage early testing, dissapointment and bank loans!!

STEP AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't say that, nunnie!! I just turned 30 on Monday, and I don't have 1 DC yet I hope I'm not too late!

And, yes, I DO feel old! I saw one of those dodgy ads on the telly earlier for getting in touch with "experienced, older ladies" (30s, 40s, 50s or 60s)... 30???? 'Older'???? What is the world coming to? I still feel like I'm 21!!

Anyways... I think I just had an early MC or CP. If that's the case, it means it's still possible for me to get pg, but I need to put some duct tape up there to get anything to stick If I'm wrong, then here's to next month...

pme, Don't forget what I said to you before. You can do it xx

Hey clwc thanku, soo much, today I feel soo much better today about it, so just gonna have to accept that I will have bad days of course and just keep going, I won't giv up trying, I don't think I could even if I wanted to

You think u have had a mc???? Hw come? I REALLY HOPE not!!

What is involved in a chemical pregnancy?

xx

Don't give up trying ladies - I'm 35 and just had the BFP again after a mc and haven't any children yet. Clwc 30 is not old! I wish I was that age again.

Thanks Liskey. It was just that damn ad! I felt almost OK about being 30 before that. Lol.

Hi pme. I'm glad you feel better today. If you feel a bit low again tomorrow, try to remember why you felt good today. That strategy often helps me.

I think I've had 3 very early MCs so far. Even though PCOS makes my cycles very unpredictable, I don't usually have a period that is heavy, nor lasts longer than 5 days. Each time, these have been heavy, last a week or so, and great chunks (tmi, sorry) of tissue are passed. Because of PCOS, HPTs have never shown a BFP... And I know Clomid can cause inter-menstrual bleeding, but all the timing was right for implantation, nausea, etc. Basically, I will never know for sure, because I haven't had a hCG blood test in time.

I hope none of you were having your brekkie when you read this! xx

PS pme I'm not entirely sure what's involved in a CP. I think they're often called that if they're in the first 8 weeks. Dunno though.

Hi all,
Just checking in, How is everybody?
Clwc just reading about your cp - so sorry, i had one of those before the mc and my doc said its a cp because the sac is to small to show on a scan so its like you are having the symptoms but nothing shows on a scan to confirm your pgt - if that makes sense!?!?
It's horrible because you think you are then you are let down soon after. Hugs for you.

I'm not sure what cd im on and am trying not to count!! i'm trying the i don't care approach but is hard!!! I caved in and got some ov sticks so will do them after the weekend and take it from there!
Hows everyone else? Seems a lot of bfp on here so lets all be positive it's becoming a lucky thread for everybody!

morning everyone how are we all today.

Lets not talk about 30 its not old (please say its not!!) im fast approaching 29 and cant believe im not 18 anymore, where has life gone!

Ok whose left to test this month?? Looking forward to seeing lots of BFP's for you all coming up

morning ladies, take last tabs tomorrow, side effects aren't pleasant but it'll be worth it.

how is everyone?

lissie is that the clomid your talking about? sure i read somewhere you were on them finally.

yep. scan on weds to see how many follicles are a-hatching, you'd think that by now id be whipping my knickers off and hopping on the couch every time i see the doc, but hate the probe. still, at least i have no shame

aww good luck then for Wednesday, i dont envy you with the probe, few more weeks till i have to endure that again

Lissielou good luck!

Clwc...sorry to hear tht, its not fair, and angelfifi I knw wat CD yr on, same as me, we got our AF same day didn't we?

CD8 I am nw

Yeah we are how weird is that!!! Are you using ov sticks this time round? I'm going to try them about mon i think and see what happens! Fingers crossed!!

Nunnie, are you really giving up? Or just paying less attention? You're not old honestly... at 33 with a DH of 41, I have spent the last year in class with a load of 21 year olds so I spend most of my time feeling positively ancient... but then my tutor announced today that she's pregnant so I think there's hope for us all as she's definitely no spring chicken and it's her first as well.

Lissie LOL at whipping your knickers off. Is the probe thing the dildocam? [Name stolen shamelessly from another thread] GOOD LUCK! Not long to go now - hopefully your follies will be simmering along nicely - let us know how you get on.

Hello PME, Clwc, Angelfifi, Liskey, iate how are you all this afternoon?

thank you all. am v up and down today. one minute im in hysterics, the next im in tears.

but pmsl at dildocam!

nunnie, i do undrestand, but i think its perhaps too early to make any decisions. are you under a cons yet?

annie, thanks. its such a relief that something is being done. think scanning in 1st month is typical. im a bit worried that if i have more than 2 follicles they will try to tell me not to try.

Angelfifi bn usin ov tests nothing yet obv, but still done ded twice so far , u gonna use them then yeah?

PL I am good today thanku

Babydust ladies

afternoon all!

rofl at Dildocam its the best description!!

Hope your all out enjoying the lovely sunshine, im very well today resting lots before work this afternoon, and feeling incredibly positive!

Iate we don't ave sunshine, raining

We don't have sunshine here today Iate

Clwc, I am not quitting cos of my age hun, I am still a baby myself , I am stopping trying cos of all the heartache and stress that goes hand in hand with it, after 4 years of that with dc1, I have decided I am not willing to put myself or my family through it all again. I am not going back on the pill just yet (so not actively not trying, however will eventually have to return to the pill I think just cos, I might say I don't want to try but when taking no steps to prevent getting pregnant it is very hard to keep all baby thoughts out of the equation!

I am going to give myself 6 more months of (trying) not to think about babies, and if I really can do it for the next 6 months, I will avoid the pill, if however (which is more likely) I do feel gutted when AF calls at my door then I know it is not possible to forget about it and relax and I will go back on the pill.

Decided not to take the cons route, who knows in 6 months, I might feel totally different and decide to get referred, but the way I feel now I just want to forget the whole bloomin thing. I need to get away from the am I aren't I is that a symptom or is it not!! All too much now! Last month I can honestly say I didn't think about it half as much as previous months, but when AF arrived I was just as gutted as before .

Anyhow keep up the success stories ladies I will keep checking on you

Hiya everyone.

I'm feeling quite rough today after a fantastic party yesterday. Just gonna have some toast to soak up any left over alcohol! lol. Like I said to my invitees, "Me being 30 makes them feel old too. So we're all in the same boat" Hehe.

I'm going to keep TTC, but completely naturally for a while (No drugs, supplements, grapefruit juice, anything).

I hope you're all well. xxx

Afternoon ladies - have you all got this glorious sunshine too?

nunnie I understand where you are coming from I think - hopefully the trying not to think of babies will do the trick. But please keep checking on us - I for one will miss you too much if you disappear forever. [hugs]

iate you're not working today are you? Today's far too nice a day to work So glad to hear you're being positive about everything. Are you having an early scan this time? Sending lots of sticky dust your way [hugs too].

Clwc sounds like a fabulous party. Tea and toast together are my favourite hangover cures. None of that raw egg, hair of the dog boll*x for me! Yuck. Hope you're feeling less hungover this afternoon.

PME Hello! Hope the sun has made it to you today.

Well, I'm now in the 'trying' phase of my cycle - CD14 although I don't expect to ovulate for a few more days yet so lots more 'trying' over the next few days . DH however, announced last night that his super-sperm had surely done the trick and that I am now pregnant. How's that for positive/wishful thinking All this sunshine together with BIL moving out must have put him in a good mood! I've told him in no uncertain terms that just in case his sperm is not so super he will be expected to put them into action again - and soon!

Hi Ladies

thought I'd check and see how your all doing? Hope your all keeping well and the bavymaking is going succesfully

Pistachio lol at his supersperm - but he may well be right my DH said he knew I was pregnant and I was!

Been really upset today - my Gran died this morning and its been awful. I told her last week when I went to visit that I was pregnant and she was so happy for me and DH. I told her as I knew she didn't have long and even though I was only 5 weeks knew it was my only chance to tell her - feel really down now though.
