TTC #4 - Join the madness... If you dare!!

[babyblue3]

Ok Ladies... new thread, since the old one was getting too long and dragging my computer (and Kat's) down with it!

MrsD - cant believe you are 30 weeks already! So you found that cutting out the lactose helps? It will be almost a week for me and I have noticed some improvement, but not a lot. Of course, he is still getting a milk-based formula supplement to the BFing. I am going to switch to a soy formula and see if it makes a difference as well. Until then... God give me strength!!! LOL

I'm out AF arrived this morning. But at least this means I was about right with my ov date, that makes me feel better. and better than that my periods have come straight back after taking the pill .

So here we go back to CD1

button fingers crossed for you.

Ohh hatty any news from you? Have you tested yet?

Well, we're actually away for the w/e so waiting to test shouldn't be too difficult as I'll be nice and busy!

Strangely though, more spotting (TMI alert), a sort of brown discharge rather than fresh blood and only when I wipe, but still no proper AF. Normally I get an hour or so spotting and then she arrives good and proper.

So, will continue with my symptom spotting and wait until Monday!

Thanks all!

Sorry to hear you're out pink. Fingers crossed for next month for you - does that make this month the nice neat cycle you were hoping for?

Button, sounds promising! Everything crossed!

No news either way from me as yet. Day 29. Really thought things were going to start earlier as I got that "heavy" feeling in my stomach - do you know what I mean? But still no sign - heavy feeling comes and goes. Still not that overdue so AF could still start tonight.

Am a complete hormonal headcase either way. Spent an embarassing ten minutes wandering around our local village shop with DD3 this morning, trying to work out what I felt like eating tonight and then was so thrown that I left without buying anything! Then burst into hysterical tears when trying to fathom out what paperwork I needed to send back to finance my new laptop. DH had to do it all for me, felt utterly pathetic!

Spotting stopped. Still no AF. It's a long time til Monday am!

I wish I had a digital readout on my arm to let me know what's going on!

So brown discharge continued v lightly through the weekend but then this afternoon there was bright red blood. Not enough for AF but enough to make me think something's not right in terms of pg.

So now I'm . I mean, if egg got fertilised but not implanted then would a test show +ve? Therefore if I test am I setting myself up for a fall?

Or could I be pg anyway? It's gone a bit brownish again now and is nothing like normal AF.

I'm definitely not testing now. AF arrived properly this morning in her usual fashion. I don't know what happened - I never normally have discharge at the beginning of my period, normally only at the end! Feel really rubbish too, which I normally don't, all swollen and lumpy IYKWIM?

I'm quite philosophical about it though I've never had to 'try' before. In fact I've never had a summer baby before and so I'm quite looking forward to that!

Got a nic day planned though - been given a family ticket to a local touristy place so taking kids and my friend with her kids. And the sun's even shining!

Button, I'm out too. :(

I was sooooooooo excited, AF 3 days late and loads of nausea. But AF pitched up yesterday morning :(

Luckily we were about to go to a big country fair nearby, which was a lovely family day out. And one of those magical moments where you realise that you are standing talking peacefully to your DH in the sunshine while all 3 dc play happily nearby :)

Come on next month!

Hi all

I'm new to this but wanted to say hi :). Got married in May and been off the pill since then. Kept dithering about whether or not I wanted to TTC (you know, giving up the random nights out, the shopping splurges etc) so was purposely trying to avoid BD around ovulation date! Anyway, now 100% onto it but feel like I've been waiting forever for Auntie Flo (and no, no BFP for me sadly - I tested yesterday).

So just wanted to say hi to all instead of lurking and fingers crossed not to be here tooo long (in the nicest possible way :))

CCxx

Will be thinking of you tomorrow Loopy, I hope all is well.

Oh, and welcome to newbies.

hatty I had everything crossed for you,Never mind there is always next month and plenty of BD to be done.

loopy really hope everything goes well.

Hi Canada welcome to the madness .

I have no DC today/tonight as they staying with grandparents. Although I am in work tonight but just enjoying the peace while I can. AF seems to have finished, and DH is at home tonight so think there might be some BD on the cards even though there is no chance of conception.

Pink, bd'ing with no chance of conception? What's that then? ;)

Loopy, any news - thinking of you today.

zombie popping in to say hi, bbl if I can, good luck loopy. xxx

Congratulations Loopy! I'm glad all's well.

Now you can relax and breathe properly a bit!
