Oh hello I am secretly starting to TTC#4 this month would love a March baby

Only thing is AF is MIA, am still BFing DD3, had bleeding last month for 3 days thought it was AF returning, was due AF last week but nothing, did a test and it was BFN, usually have a 27 day cycle, now when I am Oving etc.

So can I hang out here until she shows her face? Must be the only one wanting her to turn up this month lol

Dlamis · 09/06/2009 15:19

I remember you from March08 for a while. (I was DontlookatmeImshy)

Hobnobfanatic · 09/06/2009 15:56

Thanks, NancyPreg. What help am I looking for? I just don't know! All I know is that I fell pregnant instantly with my first DD. Now, 6 years older and with a new DP, we're just not having any luck, despite charts, temperatures and OV kits. I'm 37 so we can't hang around! My bloods have come back normal, DP has a sperm test next month, and next week I'll see what other investigations they'll do into me... Ooo-errrr!

I have a feeling I've had two non-stickies in the last 7 months - I was sure I was pregnant in Dec and again this month, but who knows?

Good luck for you with your gynae appt. Why have you been referred?

sweetkitty · 09/06/2009 16:06

Dlamis - you have a good memory yes I was due March 08, had a mc, then DD3 in July 08, DH and I had a good old chat and decided we both wanted one more (gulp) sooner rather than later as we don't want a big gap to number 4 so here I am, huge secret though no one in RL will approve, not that I care.

So your off for number 3 then I adore having 3, DD3 is an utter joy adored by everyone?

liahgen · 09/06/2009 18:03

welcome newbies.

Well i'm feeling lucky this month. Next monday 15th would be earliest I coule reliably test though, this is gonna be a long week.

NancyPreg · 09/06/2009 19:44

hobnob, good luck with your tests and hope you get some answers if there is a problem (which there might not be of course and March could be your month!). I've been referred because I've had three consecutive mc in the last 9mths (the first two were discovered at 12wks but the third one I mc spontaneously last week) so I'm wondering about the reason why. My doc today didn't even seem to think that you had to have three mc to get referred so I could've pursued a referral in Feb but never mind.

liaghen - fingers crossed for you and everyone else this month!

teenycalls · 09/06/2009 21:36

Thanks for the welcome NancyPreg, it's nice to feel like i'm going through this with others - all my friends have already had kids and would be quite shocked if I told them me and DP are trying (after 10 years of protesting we've given in to our biological clocks!)

Am thinking of buying some ovulation tests as cycle can vary 28-32 days and think I need to get to know it better! Anyone have any advice on which ones etc?

sweetkitty · 09/06/2009 21:45

Thanks for the welcome ladies, this will be my fifth time ttc so feel like a bit of an expert

Re: OPKs I have used the Clearblue Digital ones and ebay cheapie ones, I was surprised using them for the first time as I have a 27 day cycle but OV day 15 which is later than I thought. It's good to know when you OV I think, also looking for other signs, I have never done temping but I have very definite EWCM.

I am trying to drop a few more feeds with DD3 to see if this will trigger anything, she's 11 months now but has quite a few feeds in the night still as she doesn't sleep well

liaghen - fingers crossed for you

Nancypreg - so sorry to hear about your mcs but glad you have been referred

Dlamis · 09/06/2009 22:15

SK - yep we're going for no3. Like you it's a case of doing it sooner rather than later and not wanting too big a gap,and no-one in RL knows we are trying yet, (although some know we may try one day). STill bf'ing ds2 and cycles are a bit eratic though.

Dh did say last night he thinks 4 is a good number. My face was .

Dlamis · 09/06/2009 22:29

Hobnob - hope you get some answers soon.

NancyPreg - glad you got your referal

Teeny - We were married 9 years before we started ttc. Quite a few grandparentspeople had given up waiting were a bit suprised when it finally happened.

We are going away for a few days which should pass a bit of time in the 2ww. Fingers crossed liahgen will have a BFP by the time we get back.

sweetkitty · 09/06/2009 22:53

Dlamis - I don't want to stop feeding DD3 completely just try and get her to stop using me as a dummy at night, can I ask you are you on my FB, don't want to "out" you but if you are (and I think I know how you are) can you send me a message , I'm TTC in secret as well.

Hobnobfanatic · 09/06/2009 23:48

I'm so sorry, NancyPreg - that must be some rollercoaster you've been on the last nine months. Good news on the referral - I hope they get to the bottom of it quickly - I'm sure they will.

Dlamis · 09/06/2009 23:49

Ikwym, ds uses me as a dummy at night too. He has only ever slept through twice, last week 2 nights together and i started getting all excited tinking we'd cracked it but it wasn't to be.

I don't think i'm on your facebook, afaik i'm not on anybodys unless i got on there by accident!. I'm all intrigued now

liahgen · 10/06/2009 07:19

I'm still feeding dd who is 2yrs. Morning and night. I cut it down to once to get periods back in septmember but once I got them, upped it back to twice. Thinking of giving up altogether now though. If we not lucky this month, I will.

I've used cheapie ebay OPK's with not very easily readable positives, (ie not that positive), this month used Clearblue digital and got smiley face on day 13 so for me too slightly longer thanI thought, with a 26 day cycle.

Fingers crossed for everyone this month, lets make this the luckiest bus.

teenycalls · 10/06/2009 11:53

Thanks for your advice ladies, am off to buy clear blue digital OPKs at lunchtime have told DP he should prepare for a BD marathon this month!

Really hope this is a lucky bus for us all. I seem to know so many people having probs, have a colleague going through IVF after 3 years TTC and have everything crossed for her. Makes me feel guilty for being impatient after 3 cycles but we all need reassurance sometimes I feel. With TTC#1 in my 30's after 10 years with DP using only withdrawal for 6 years I have to consciously banish the niggling thoughts that it should have happened by accident by now really and try to be positive. Although contrary to warnings from school nurse I do know A LOT of people that have used withdrawal and not had any accidents!

Good luck to all on the March bus, I have a good feeling about this and am looking forward to knicker checking and symptom spotting madness!

tostaky · 10/06/2009 14:28

sweetkitty - my DS (7 months) has started doing his nights when i actually stopped feeding him at night and left him in his bed for the night.
We went cold turkey and he didnt cry that much tbh and it really worked after a week.
he is doing 8.30pm til 6am now.

Im on the 2ww... AF are planned for the 24th and Im due to test on the 28th... will be at my parents that week...

sweetkitty · 10/06/2009 14:58

tostaky - we have a plan of action for next month when DH is on holiday, we are moving her into her own room and DH will stay with her when she wakes to comfort her but no boob, I will be completely out the picture as if she sees me she will cry even more, she won't be left alone to cry but once she realises she isn't getting a feed then hopefully she will sleep through, worked in two nights with DD2 at a year so hopefully it will be the same with DD3. Best of luck on your 2ww, I am the most impatient person ever I always say I am not testing until AF is late but end up peeing on ebay cheapies and driving myself mad squinting at them from about 10dpo. No willpower.

TakeLovingChances · 10/06/2009 19:24

This month I promise to NOT TEST TOO EARLY!!!!! That is my promise, but those nagging wishes and hopes always snare me early!

I'm going away on a 2 week trip from 8 July, period is due around 28 June, so I will try very very very hard to not test until 1st July....

I know I'm not the only one who does this!

liahgen · 10/06/2009 19:44

TLC I am already working out the earlies I could test this month, and with my 26 day cycle, I make it Sunday.

Can't make rash promises of not testing too early this month. Good luck to you.

NewMember · 10/06/2009 19:54

Evening Ladies ...

Ouch still feeling tired but no other changes that I can see/feel. Although, I do have a very light, clear discharge - could this be a sign that AF coming towards the end of the week? Oh I dont know if I can handle another negative month!

liahgen · 10/06/2009 20:43

ok, I think the list is out cos Monday and Tuesday are displaying cycle days same.

sorry I don't know how to rectify it

new, you must be able to test soon aren't you? I don't know how you could resist.
