A new thread! This is for anyone who is trying to conceive their first child - anyone welcome!

The current stats list is shown below, UCL means usual cycle length, and CD is cycle day.

In theory the person who starts the thread gets a BFP before the end, but I'll just be happy to get AF turn up again!

Hi ladies!
Just a quick post from me, saw this site was offering 2 pregnancy tests for free( UK only) and I thought it may come in handy for someone here:

www.duofertility.com/node/2708

Good luck to anyone POAS or SWI this weekend, and have a lovely weekend everyone!

aly323 · 22/05/2010 04:17

Hello ladies! I've been in hiding and wasn't really supposed to be ttc, but I couldn't help myself. I got a bfp. Now I'm scared to death and excited. I'm trying to keep calm just in case I miscarry again, but it's difficult.

Sorry for the me, me, me post. I have some catching up to do!!

aly323 · 22/05/2010 05:32

I meant catching up on the thread- not on posting about myself.

haloflo · 22/05/2010 07:39

Aly that's brillant news. Try not to worry too much but I can understand that you are. I hope after everything that happened that you are going to get constant checks this time. Hopefully they will reassure you and you can relax more. How far along are you? How did u find out? Symtoms or an early test? U have really given me hope I'll conceive quickly after my early mc. All the best for the future & I'll see u in the Grads thread sooner rather than later.

CaveMum · 22/05/2010 09:33

aly really pleased to hear your news. Keeping everything crossed that all goes well.

I won't be about much this wknd as parents are visiting, but I'll check in at some point.

Enjoy the sun!

Florin · 22/05/2010 10:55

Congratulations Aly!

Well it looks like it's going to be a lovely weekend. I am entering the swi stage so keep trying to jump on poor dh! A friend has just has a gorgeous little boy which I think has made him a little broody and keen to try and speed the process up!
Right well I am off sailing should be a beautiful day for it! Hope everyone enjoys the sun!

Kaloki · 22/05/2010 11:58

aly Congratulations!!! Will be thinking of you and sending good thoughts your way! You deserve something good this time!

I have no idea where in my cycle I am, forgot which day my period was. Have to go back through the thread to find out now.

Kaloki · 22/05/2010 12:03

Alright, I'm due in about a week.

PLus I forgot to tell you, we got the date set for the wedding yesterday. We are booked for Sept 10th this year at Whipsnade Zoo!

aly323 · 22/05/2010 13:15

Thank all! I'll feel much more secure once I can get my hcg levels checked and see that they're rising correctly this time.

Haloflo, I'm way too early to even by saying anything- 11dpo. I have a short lp, so af was expected yesterday. I've been oddly weepy and sensitive to smells for a week. I also felt lots of twinges. I saw that you just went through a mc, too. I'm so sorrybthat happened, it's awful. I ovulated right on time after mine, so keep yourself ready!

Awww, Kaloki, i'm so happy for you! Sept 10th will be an excellent day for a wedding.

zippys · 22/05/2010 13:52

just a quick post as going out to enjoy the sunshine! Aly I am so so pleased for you. I really hope things work out for you. You deserve it after what you have been through.

Ooh very exciting Kaloki September is not that far away

I just received my appointment for infertility clinic, appointment just over 4 weeks away, at least things are happening. Had my day 3 bloods done and then got booked in for day 21 ( or for me day 29!)

Hope everyone is enjoying the sun.

zippys · 22/05/2010 13:59

forgot to say thanks to Mumnerves thanks for the tip re tests, just applied for them

kkas · 22/05/2010 16:28

aly congrats!!!!! so happy for you and really keeping my fingers crossed for you this time

zippys glad to hear you have your appointment sorted out. one step closer, eh?!

pixiestix · 22/05/2010 21:50

Congratulations Aly - I am so happy for you and sending you a massive [hug] across cyber-space. Come and see us on the Grads thread when you are ready. We miss you.

That goes for you too Halo - you are missed and we are all rooting for you this month.

Congratulations on your wedding date Kaloki. Have you decided on a dress pattern yet?

For any of the old-skool posse from last summer, Trying just updated with news of the birth of her little girl Emily - she emerged after a 30 hour labour weighing 10 lbs 2.5 oz. and double

Ariesgirl · 22/05/2010 22:06

Aaaaaaaargh - 10lb 2.5 oz. Bloody hell! Hope she's hanging together.

Very happy for you Aly

bunnygirl80 · 23/05/2010 00:43

CONGRATULATIONS aly. I've got everything tightly crossed for you. Come see us on the grads thread when you're ready.

zippys glad to hear you're making some progress with your appointments.

OneOf8 · 23/05/2010 06:44

Aly CONGRATS!!!!!

Ariesgirl · 23/05/2010 10:37

Where's kkas? KKAS? How are you doing this month, cycle chum? Much action?!

mumnerves · 23/05/2010 10:41

aly congratulations on the BFP!!! Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you that this is a sticky one, see you on the grads thread when you're ready x

florin happy SWI-ing and good luck to anyone testing!

kkas · 23/05/2010 11:22

hi guys - i've updated the list and added aly to the grads although I wasn't exactly sure which day you got you BFP and hope I didn't mess up anyone's CD as it's difficult to update 2 days!

aries haven't had a shag in over 10 days as we have been so busy with work, etc. don't usually ov until day 20 or 21 so i'm not too worried yet but had pretty watery CM yesterday so i guess i better do my best to try tonight as unlikely i'll get any in the next couple days. we're away for a wedding and staying in a hotel from thursday so i'm really hoping that the relaxation and time away from home might do the trick, but i'm not really holding out too much hope. how's it going with you and our other cycle buddies?

alas i am at work at the moment as i have so much to catch up on (not to mention MN ) but have decided i'm only staying til 2pm as i just cannot spend all day here when it is so nice outside. hope everyone else is enjoying it!

Hello Frolickers,

How are you all?! I've missed you

I 've just got back from a weekend away at a spa and shopping with some friends- had a lovely time and just thought I'd piop my head in before bed. Congratulations aly great news So pleased for you!

Hello to everyone else- am vowing to get my marking done by Thursday so normal service shall be resumed then as I am having MN withdrawal symptoms!

Hope the sun is still shining for you back home xxxxx

Hermya321 · 23/05/2010 17:43

Congratulations Aly I'll keep fingers and toes quietly crossed for you!!!

MrsWajs · 23/05/2010 21:44

Congratulations to Aly and also to Seablue if you're lurking!

I was about to go on a rant about my temps again (yo-yo'ing is not the word) however FF informs me that I ov'd on CD15 which I had already thought so kinda happy about that - it also rates my intercourse timing as high! Really don't have much idea about the whole thing as this is my first time using it but can only imagine that's a good thing!

So just hanging out the 2ww now, think if all the calculations are correct I should know roughly in about 8 days time whether this is my month or not!!

Hope everyone is fine and enjoying the nice weather!

kkas · 24/05/2010 09:08

morning all! got a good SWI sesh in last night. it was funny cuz we got in bed and were just talking and then we heard the neighbours get in their hot tub and were chatting quite loudly (must have had a few to drink ). let's just say 15 minutes later we managed to shut them up! gotta love a summer shag with the window open!

fingers crossed mrswajs and welcome back felicity
