Trying for February baby?

Hi

I am new to Mumsnet and was wondering if any Mumsnet users trying for a baby would like to chat. I have a dd who is 2 and want another baby desperately. I have only been trying for one month and thought I was pregnant last month but was wrong. I got pregnant within a month with dd and thought the same would happen again. Could use some baby dust.

Just seen your message on the due in March thread and seen you are 3 weeks 4 days. What made you test early? What test did you use?

anchovies · 23/06/2005 14:35

I always test early! No seriously though just had a funny feeling this might be our month, no symtoms or anything though! Have a very regular 29 day cycle, used a first response test and got the two lines!

Good luck for tonight trix!

Madigan · 23/06/2005 15:18

how long had you been trying for?

Trix1 · 23/06/2005 15:21

I know I am setting myself up for bitter disappointment but I 'feel' that this could be the month. I feel so nervous!!!!!!!!!!

anchovies · 23/06/2005 15:26

Had been trying "properly" for almost a year. Temp charting, the works! Thought I had my cycle down to a fine art but this month we had a go at OPKs and they obviously did the trick.

anchovies · 23/06/2005 15:27

Hope you're right trix that is exactly how I felt!

Trix1 · 23/06/2005 15:30

Whats your exact due date?

flamesparrow · 23/06/2005 15:40

Awww, if mine shows up good, then I'll be on the due in Feb one!

Congratulations though!!!

anchovies · 23/06/2005 17:52

Due date of somewhere between 2nd and 5th March when I put my different dates in the babycentre calculator thing!

Sorry for hogging your thread today, am just so excited, hope it happens for all of you too!

romilly · 23/06/2005 23:27

anchovies - congratulations to you honey!

MandM · 24/06/2005 10:02

Anchovies - Congratulations!!!!

Flamesparrow - Good Luck with today's testing - Fingers. toes and everything else crossed for you! Next Friday seems like a long time to wait for your news, you certainly know how to keep us all in suspense!

flamesparrow · 26/06/2005 13:41

Will Flame be on "trying for a March baby"??

Will she be joining "Due Feb 2006" (keep crashing that thread anyway cos I like chattin)?

Find out in next week's.... "Trying for a February baby?"

Dun dun daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Sorry... a tad bored today

MandM · 27/06/2005 09:46

OH Flamesparrow!!! ()

I clicked ont his thread all eaxcited then because I saw the last message was from you and thought you must have cracked early and decided to reveal all!

Disappointed now.. Friday still seems a long way off......................

StarryEyed · 27/06/2005 10:41

Morning girls

Where does one get one's hands on early preg testing kits? I can only find the usual at Boots. I am due to test this week and don't know if I can wait until after my AF due date.

flamesparrow · 27/06/2005 13:46

www.mumzmall.com sells em very very very cheap - Mine came through next day (but I know her)... if you put a message in your order saying that Flamesparrow sent you too

anchovies · 27/06/2005 13:48

Starryeyed I got a +ve using a first response (from boots) 4 days before af was due, tried boots and tescos own afterwards and got -ves until the day af was due

anchovies · 27/06/2005 13:48

Oh and good luck!

MandM · 27/06/2005 13:54

Starryeyed - keep us updated. This thread has my nerves in tatters!

flamesparrow · 27/06/2005 13:55

Mwa ha ha ha ha

MandM · 27/06/2005 14:03

You got a BFP didn't you?!!!!!

You wouldn't be in such a chirpy, cheeky mood if you hadn't - would you?

Come on, reveal all............NOW!

I won't tell a single soul - I promise!

flamesparrow · 27/06/2005 14:15

Sun is shining, my baby has been dry for 2 1/2 days, and I enjoy sex...

Could still swing either way.

Cos I could be on here and being all grumpy cos my boobies hurt, I'm tired, and I ain't in the mood for sex.

flamesparrow · 27/06/2005 14:15

And winding you up is making me all happy too!

StarryEyed · 27/06/2005 14:38

Thanks.

Since I stopped the pill my first cycle was 28 days and my second 30 days so my AF is due either 28/6 or 30/6. But I feel really unwell today. My boobs are very sore (which I don't suffer from normally) but my whole body is hurting generally. Think I am coming down with something. Plus persistent headache and bloated tummy. Not in a good way. Not sure whether to wait or test. Am so scared it will be a BFN. As you know my DH is away at next month just when I am OVing so next month is a write off. I only have a clearblue test at home which you can test on the day AF is due.

Will be out of the office tomorrow and day after so next post will be Thurs. Sorry girls. Will let you know then. I may have to wait till Thurs to test in any case. GOD...

Flamesparrow - you can't tease us like that

Hello girls.

Back from wonderful holidays. Had a really good time - walks on the beach, trips to waterpark with DS, who now loves water, lots of time together as a family with hardly any arguments!!

Flame, can see you have been driving the lovely ladies crazy...come on tell us now, now, now, now. Agree with MandM that you sound far to cheery for a BFN though. Hope we are right

Good luck with testing Starry. I am away to Paris with work for a couple of days (not as cool as it sounds, will be stuck in a conference room for 2 days ), but will be back on Thursday for your results!!

Anchovies, congrats if you're still reading this thread.

Trix, did you test yet?

Hello to MandM and Homemama too, hope you are well.

Am on CD23 (is is just me, or does the days seem to go really slow?) don't feel the least bit pg, but if I'm not, it's won't be for lack of trying We'll just have to wait and see.

Today is DS's birthday, he is 2. Can't believe it's been two years already!!

homemama · 27/06/2005 21:50

Hi Dana, glad you had a nice holiday. Good luck with testing Starry. Flame-I have to agree with the general concensus judging by your mood.
As for me, still waiting for first AF 2mths after giving up BF.
WHERE ARE YOU????????????????????????????????
