oh you poor thing fulham i bet you just want to know. You never know it still could be good news.

I just hope you can put you feet up for a bit and rest.

I feel really queasy this morning but I am sure it is just my over active mind! I am also really emotional today, just feel like bursting out in tears but again that could just be a sign of AF on its way

Ladyemmalou83 · 17/09/2009 11:50

Sorry to hear your feeling so unwell Fulham, fingers crosssed your feel lots better soon.

Well AF has gone , and now DH and I can get on with having some fun this month, although looking at all the night shifts I have on my roster, god knows when we will fit it

Feeling loads better about my situation, had a real heart to heart with my mum yesterday and told her everything that had happened, and she was really lovely about it all (not that she wouldnt be, but I thought she would give me 'its early days yet' speech).

Have vowed this month Im gonna BD every other night and no symptom spotting, although gonna find it hard to stick to the latter I think.

Is wrong to go through the mothercare catalogue circling everything I think I want?

Ozziegirly · 18/09/2009 02:30

Good luck with the BDing ladyemmalou I always like that start of the month!

Well I am on CD25, and am having some vague AF type pains and no other symptoms at all, apart from slightly senstive boobs, which is probably the start of AF anyway.

AF is due on Monday so I will let you know. Not holding out much hope though.

zippys · 18/09/2009 08:15

Morning everyone

Glad you are feeling a lot beeter lady, hope you enjoy this part of the month

Sorry to hear you have AF symptoms Ozzie but you never know?

Well I broke and tested this morning - BFN so upset even though deep down I think I knew. I am so gutted, infact sat at my desk typing this with a few tears escaping (better pull myself together before anyone arrives! )Just want to go home and go back to bed!!

AF not here yet and havent had any spotting yet so maybe I an just going to be a day or so late. TMI alert - I do have a bit of a creamy discharge which is very unusual for me, I think my body has gone haywire.

I am clutching at straws here BUT, I used a boots own test that said it only worked from say of missed period, so do you think it is not a very sensitive one?

Anybody else got some good news as I could really do with some right now.

fulhamgirl · 18/09/2009 09:58

Morning girls.

zippys- Aww huni im so so sorry for your bfn . Yes the boots test is not as senstive as the other tests you can buy if I was you as hard as it may be just wait now until AF appears. If youve had no show by say Wednesday then test again with a kinda more sensitive one or go to see your doctor.
Im gonna stick with what I always say dont give up hope until AF makes an apperience. Then you can stuff your face with chocolates bottle of wine and have a good old cry at a soppy movie. Then the fun starts up again .
It can take ages to concieve when youve been on the pill. Upto a year sometimes I known people who was BDing every night and still took them upto a year so please dont feel to disheartened we are all in the same boat and we will all be there for each other!! Its harder when your work colleges are all preggers as well. Still hope though and im keeping everything crossed for you!!

ozzie- Lol Some people get symtoms others dont really!! Im getting pains like AF is on its way!! Have you got an idea of when your going to test?

Im really gonna try and wait until Wednesday but I know im gonna give in but I cant just cant lol!!

lady - Happy Bding!!! Its where the fun starts !! No its not unormal to look through them catologes just makes you wanna concieve more though !!!

Nothing to report from me guys. Pains kinda lightening up now so feel a little more relaxed. Boobs sore but prob a show of AF.

Come on guys that are testing like zippys I want some good news as well !!

Good luck guys

fulhamgirl · 18/09/2009 10:24

Thank you kkas

How are things with you hun?

xxxxxxx

kkas · 18/09/2009 10:28

Pretty good thanks fulham

Glad your pains are going away. Do you have plans for the weekend to keep your mind off testing ?

Our imac was delivered this morning and carpet for study coming tomorrow so we will be having fun putting the finishing touches together. Hopefully will manage to pry DH away from imac for a few BD seshes too!

zippys · 18/09/2009 10:42

Thanks so much for that fulham in my emotional state your kindness has brought tears to my eyes (must get a grip). You are right its not over until AF is here and have no pains so will wait it out for a few days. I have another boots test and one CB digital (was hoping to keep it for when I already had a positive on another . But may break it out on Wed if no AF. If I think about it you are right I have been on the pill for over 10 years and know I may take longer than other people but you just cant help getting your hopes up can you! As you say at least I can look forward to the wine and chocolate

I am glad your pains has got a bit better and to echo your words you cant give up hope until AF arrives.

lady I may not have got the circling stage but already started thinkinf about prams and buggys and the like so not far off you (may also have looked at nice maternity clothes for the winter

kkas hope you manage to tear your man away from his new toy to enjoy yourselves Hope you have a lovely weekend.

fulhamgirl · 18/09/2009 10:51

Thank you I was getting really worried.

Im nervous about testing I do have a good feeling though so fingers crossed.

Well we have brought our own place now so we are decorating we are completly re desgining it so we are living with my mum and dad at the moment trying to sort things so that takes my mind off of testing.

As I said I have a good feeling bout it but u never know!!

Haha kkas ohhhhh I can feel the pasions comming from the study lol!!

How long do u have before your most fertile time?

xxxxxxxxxxxx

Ladyemmalou83 · 18/09/2009 10:54

ohhhh what a day today is going to be.

Got CBT at lunch and we are starting work on my fear of needles. Isnt that going to be fun? My nurse is going to be there too to help with the needles stuff, she will want an update on my pregnancy (this time last week I was), so shall have to fill her in on that one, oh joyful. Possibly a good thing that Im tackling my needle fear.....really need to have some bloods taken.

Then I get to come home and tidy my entire the house in preperation my DH BBQ. DH has invited 15 ppl over for BBQ, we only have 4 chairs (could be interesting), plus our house is only a 2 up 2 down....he quite clearly hasnt thought about this, lol, men!

Dont thing I'll get a shag tonight as DH will no doubt be merrily drunk, not sure I want his sperm swimming to wrong way

Just watching Last nights Mock the Week, bloody quality, PMSL

fulhamgirl · 18/09/2009 11:07

lady oh u have a fear of needles im ok with them no great. Thinking of you though babes.

I might try and watch that then in a bit boss sitting opperstie me today though damm it .

15 people lol good luck with that babes at least that will keep u busy for the day!! And u can join in with the wine drinking .

I think we will all be in winter materinty clothes tbh with you. Then we can advise each other on the best places to shop haha!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

kkas · 18/09/2009 11:48

fulham like your ideas about shopping for mat clothes over the winter!

not sure when most fertile time is tbh as last month was first time off pill, although i did get CM around the 9-16 CD mark. ovulation calender says it will be next week so hopefully we can start over the weekend. really gonna try for the every other night thing, as long as we're both up for it! don't want a recurrence of last month's stresses..... just trying to be more relaxed about it, really.

was going to go to the body shop and see if i can get some nice massage oils to maybe mix it up a bit. any recommendations?

lady sorry about the needles. i hate them too!

CJ2007 · 18/09/2009 15:22

Hi all, nice to read all the chatter.
Hope you're all feeling well.
I'm on for a moan I'm afraid!! So angry with myself as I appear to have completely misread my chart after last month and have mistimed all our bding!!!!
Hurry up af so we can get cracking for next month!! Never thought I'd say that!!

best wishes to all those getting ready to test and those trying to hold out, I never can!
Take care.

Ladyemmalou83 · 18/09/2009 17:26

Back from quacks, needle therapy was ok, actually held one. As my mother would say "Brave girl". Wanted to ask the doc for a sticker!

T -30 mins till ppl start arriving for my DHs BBQ. Ive asked him to try not piss off the neighbours tonight with loud noise, but suspect he will manage it. My BF is coming though so we can at least sit over a glass of wine discussing TTC. BF is having a bad time with TTC as is at clomid stage and its not working, so girly natter.

CJ dont be angry, you never know, u could have hit it right on head? Fingers crossed for you

Right where is my glass of wine, gonna need small glass before I put my hostie head on

fulhamgirl · 18/09/2009 18:24

Ozziegirly · 19/09/2009 01:08

fantastic news fulham that's really so brilliant, I'm so pleased for you!

fulhamgirl · 19/09/2009 07:33

Aww thanks guys!!

I took a first responce yesterday and came back positive then a clear blue and it came up pregnant 1-2 weeks so im defo preggers.

I kinda knew deep down with the feeling sick etc.

Anyone else got n e news?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ladyemmalou83 · 19/09/2009 10:00

Congratulations Fulham, thats wonderful news. Yey another Graduate!!!!

No news from me, am putting DH in the doghouse for his behaviour at our BBQ last night. He behaved totally irresponsibly, so no BD for him 2nite. Im on nights for 3 days after today so Im hoping as its early in the month, and my cycles have been longer recently that Im not going to miss our window, but then again his behaviour last night suggests he isnt responsible enough to have a child. He is still asleep at the mo, hungover, but Im gonna talk to him when he wakes up about it, I couldnt bring a child into this world with how he has been recently

fulhamgirl · 19/09/2009 10:15

Heya lady thanks for the congrates!!

Lol dh sounds like a typical man haha!! Mine can be like that as well he had a tantrum this morning as I did iron his fav shirt !!

U mihgt find he might be findng it hard u guys trying and not working!! I know its hard to talk to men but maybe explain to him cause youve been on the pill for so long can take a year to fall pregnant I mean I dunno if thats the reason y he is actin funy just seems weired that he has strated like this recently!! Might be worth a shot!!

Very sick this morning not coping to well already!! Such a baby!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

claireinthecommunity · 19/09/2009 10:39

zippys · 19/09/2009 11:52

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS FULHAM

I am so pleased for some good news, I was starting to worry about your pains, but they were good ones all along . I just hope the sickness isnt too bad for you, but at least if you feel sick then it means the hormones are going. It will be nice if you stick around, you never know we may be able to all move over to the pregnancy board soon.

lady well done on holding the needle. Try not to worry about your DH I am sure he would change if a baby was about. As fulham said it may just be his way of coping with whats going on. Men generally dont talk about things as much.

No real news for me, still no AF, no AF symptoms so really feel in limbo. I am going out tonight so not going to drink tonight but dont feel prgnant so think AF will show up soon enough. Just really wish I knew what was going on!
