Hi all,

Brand new thread!

I started it so I must get a BFP before the end - them's the rules.

Thanks so much loopy!!! Am getting very excited! Haven't had a holiday since last September when we flew to Cyprus for a friend's wedding. Ds wouldn't settle and it was one of the most exhausting weeks I've ever had. Bringing my mum this time!

barrenbrook · 12/07/2010 05:06

Ooooo northern you sneaked that in there, I almost missed it! congrats! I'll refrain from a big whoop whoop until you've had a more positive positive. But a line is a line!!!! X

Hopefully · 12/07/2010 10:42

DG I'm not sure I'd know where to start with my cervix! I've never been able to figure it out

Might risk another silent SWI tonight, just to be on the safe side. Had peak (ON CBFM) Fri and Sat, and then high yesterday and low today, but you never know.

Northern fingers crossed your +tve becomes more +tve!

Wedding planning is in full swing here (well, I've googled lots of dresses. That counts, right?). Am going to be doubly disappointed if no BFP this month, as I'm really hoping not to be hugely fat and either pregnant or immediately post natal at the wedding, and at least if I was PG this cycle I'd have a 3 month old [trying not to think of sleepless puffy face with 3 month old last time emoticon]

stuffedmk · 12/07/2010 13:53

Sod it, I'm gonna hop on....have stopped myself up til now but having a bad day, doing the "it's never gonna happen" thing so need to be where others know what I'm on about.

stuffedmk TTC#2 cycle 2 UCL 28ish CD13

Dunno what brought on the bad day and I'm sure I'll be fine tomorrow but just feeling low.

Magic8ballhastheanswers · 12/07/2010 14:02

I mean anger........I can't bloody type today and I posted the list on another thread earlier.........

northerngoldilocks · 12/07/2010 14:05

stuffedmk - sorry you're having a bad day, some really are for no obvious reason!

Hello to everyone else - quick message as am at work.

Tested again this morning (mainly as I have no willpower whatsoever - RTD not due until Wed!), used a clearblue digital and got pregnant 1-2 weeks . Obviously I'm really happy - but also really terrified, am trying not to get too excited as its really really early days. Plus I don't feel pregnant, whereas last time I did. Keep telling myself that I didn't test until about 10 days later last time and that might be why - also as I'm really really hoping I don't have a repeat of previous experience, anything that is different is good.

Magic8ballhastheanswers · 12/07/2010 14:07

Fab news Northerng : )

stuffedmk · 12/07/2010 14:15

I think it was the JWs that came to the door earlier that started me off. I had real trouble not asking them why god would make me lose a baby...I shouldn't answer the door really, but I think they got wise to me hiding from a couple of women that normally come round, and sent someone else, throwing me off lol. I actually don't normally mind lengthy discussions with them but since the MC I just don't want to think about the god question (no offence intended to anyone )

stuffedmk · 12/07/2010 14:16

OOOOHHHH congrats northern

clareanna · 12/07/2010 16:26

woop! woop! big congrats northern ! it is totally terrifying and if it's any help, I didn't have any symptoms either, whereas with MMC I was symptoms a go go - every pg is different i guess. Hope to see you on the grads thread soon?!

big waves and hugs/haddock slapping to everyone else x

congrats northern hope things continue to go well for you.

stuffed hi - seen you on the April bus too I know what you mean about sore - and I am flipping fed up of pretending I am up for it, as otherwise DH gets all grumpy that I only want him for his man juice (too right)

hopefully wedding dresses, mm. Have you decided on the stype you want?

magic8 keeping everything crossed...

AFM - still getting OV cramps and EWCM today, going to have to head for more SWI.

stuffedmk · 12/07/2010 17:35

Loopy think you might be right.....oh well, tomorrow is another day and all that.

Moofold · 12/07/2010 19:16

Hey northern! Congrats, that's great news. Like Clare I've had virtually no symptoms this time either.

8s your resolve! I even sneaked a peek at MN at work to see if there was any news. Sorry RTD got you Barren. Hello Hippy, sorry to see there's been more sad news for you but glad to see you got a BFP, I'm sure you will again x

Fab timing battery, good luck for the TWW! Pretty in my experience i got major EWCM a few daysbefore OV. Welcome to Stuffedmk, sorry you are going through this but am sure the thread will help.

No news here. Still daily episodes of convincing myself something or other is a sure sign of not being pregnant enough. Although I may have felt a wee bit sick this morning but its probably all in my tiny mind! Terrible lower back ache, no idea what that is about....

Hello Hopefully, Ivy, Digi, Loopy, Cheepz, Deliliah and anyone else knocking about - hope you are all well x

Muser · 12/07/2010 19:22

Wonderful news northern. Of course you're nervous, but here's hoping you have velcro womb this time.

hairytriangle · 12/07/2010 19:57

stuffedmk welcome to the thread!

ooh Northern wowzer great news!!!!

and hello to everyone else!

Had reflexology - it was great. So relaxing and she focussed on my tubes had more visions this time (last time was during my WTF after three day bleed, and I had a strong voice in my head saying 'you are still pregnant' it was odd, but I was as it turned out! the following day my body bled again - so something worked.

this time I visualised healthy lady bits, and then I got a strong, strong sensation of me, other half and two kids smiling

I know I sound nuts, but I find it really relaxing and I really do believe in positive thinking.

Still not ovulation signs for me - except one great big solitary zit, and mild 'heavy' feeling in my abdomen - but only day 11 so not too concerned.

Am still peeing on sticks and have ordered a clear blue fertility monitor.

hippychick66 · 12/07/2010 22:30

delialahbelle - i know exactly what you mean. My DH said - this time let's not be so precise and only do it like made in the fertile window - lets just do it every few days and see if we hit the right date - yeah lets do that i said

So now I have to put on a low cuttop when i think it's the right time to ensure that we casually do it!!!!

It's so difficult to act like you don't mind too much whether you do it or not when really your thinking in your head, "This is the one that could do it."

I do understand how they don't want to feel used - but it is hard to keep a casual face on it. Plus of course when he suggests it at an unimportant time you have to look just as keen - yawn yawn - the joys of TTC sex!!

delilahbelle · 13/07/2010 07:27

hippychick Exactly! I have been pretending post-mc I have a magically increased sex drive... mostly DH is thanking his lucky stars
Must admit I sometimes wish I could just say that it was my fertile window, and every 6 hours for the next few days would be ideal... can imagine DHs freak out though!
At least if it doesn't work next month we will be on holiday for the crucial time next month.

hairytriangle positive thinking is good! I, despite originally being very scientific have now started to believe in just about anything that will get me a baby... cosmic ordering anyone?!

hairytriangle · 13/07/2010 08:24

Deli I may be taking it to extremes. Wearing orange, positive thinking, cosmic ordering, affirmations etc etc! But it can do no harm I guess!

stuffedmk · 13/07/2010 09:12

I'm glad not to be the only one doing the 'up for it' dance....ever so casually of course
Took a night off last night, thought it would make every other night look less obvious lol

PrettyVacant1 · 13/07/2010 09:30

Mornin' all

8's what c'ha doin' to me I'm in suspenders here!!!
No pressure but I'm thinking of you more than is positively normal in a non stalkerish way.
You POAS now please when your ready luvverly

Fab news Northern made up for you and your DP.

Stuffedmk welcome to the thread.
Sorry you're going through this, hope your time with us is short. x

Hippy I know what you mean when you're lying there thinking " this could be the one"
(does that count as positive thinking?)
I do try not to be counting cycle days at the crucial moment it kinda takes the romance out of it.

I'm allowed to be menkul this month for various reasons, I just hope there's a result and it's bleedin' worth it.

It's a hell of a lot of pressure our poor boys are under innit!

I may have to go with the relax and see route but hey ho lets try other routes first.

Update on VacantFuntions;
Still no EWCM, pulling twinge on and off yesterday on right side, right breasticle achey and heavy feeling in inside lady garden area.
Hit me with the haddock and call me Shirley.

I'll be mighty pissed orf if my body decided to skip Ov this month with all the effort and maths and stalking I've been doing.

I really must skidaddle, my alarm has gone off twice now and I need to go worky.

Laters xx

lucysnowe · 13/07/2010 09:40

Hi all, hope all is well and congrats northern! Forgive me for skimreading other posts, have a gazillion emails to go through this morning after a week off :-) anyway forgot my chart -and- lubricant (VITAL EQUIPMENT) on hols so was a bit rubbish but had a couple of days of EWCM then it stopped so had a go anyway. On return had a low temp but no EWCM but the next day they were high so erm.... think I might be on 2ww now. But no symptoms, which I'm kind of pleased about after last cycle's craziness, so will have to see how it goes. Have a nice day ladies!
