    Ahh Kenco, look after yourself, go back to bed if you can sleep, and try and keep your fluids up. Take care of yourself and your precious cargo :)

    Hi everyone,

    I’m in my third month of TTC, and am already getting impatient! Although this is my first contribution to this thread, I’ve been an avid reader for the last few weeks, and I love reading the funny, surprising and sometimes very moving messages that people post. Like many of you, I’m trying not to put too much pressure on my partner to ‘perform’ on demand, so it’s great having somewhere to go to discuss (or just read about…) concerns, worries, tips and tricks!

    I do have one question, too. I’ve tried using OV test sticks for the first time this month (PIAP type) and have had no positive results. I had two days where a very pale line as visible on the test, but that’s still negative. Has anyone else had a similar problem and gone on to use another Ov test with more success? I’m trying not to worry at this stage, but I’m hoping this doesn’t mean that I’m not ovulating at all…:(


    Thanks for reading, and loads of baby dust to all!

    And welcome to Gillby too:wave:, can't help with OV sticks but I'm sure someone will be along soon x

    I tend to use my testing date as 1/2days after af is due, just in case AF decides to be a littel late:rolleyes: But would say at least the day of/after AF is due.hth x

    I have a question about ewcm please. Is it possible to OV without having ewcm? I didn't notice any last month and wonder if that means I didn't OV? (I had a strong-ish line on my ov-stick but I think that's not a guarantee of OV.) I haven't had any so far this month either (whilst I'm taking it easy ttc-wise this month i'm still looking for it!).

    Sorry I know this is late lol but yes it is, I didnt notice any ewcm (and I usually have loads *ahem* in June when we were TTC and I got a BFP that month :)

    Congratulations to Scotsgirl & Kelinik on the BFP's :j:T:j:T:j

    Wow this thread has seen a lot of BFP's in the last few weeks! I have my fingers crossed that some of you old timers - no offence to the newbies - will be joining me soon as I miss you all :o

    Congrats to snuggles too on the job. What a great thing for you to focus on till you get your BFP.

    Madmac is your H home yet? Hope he is doing ok.

    Leopardlady - it sounds like things are getting better and more back to normal for you. I hope your H is feeling better.

    I have got my booking in appointment with the m/w next week when I will (hopefully) be 8w+2 (not sure why they want to see me so early) so I'm trying to focus on getting to that. Next week is the dreaded week 8 when I had the mc, however, I'm feeling a little more positive about this pregnancy (hopefully not foolishly) as I have been soooo naseus and my BB's have gone up 3 cup sizes already whereas with the mc I had no real symptoms.

    Baby dust to all.

    THREE cup sizes? Really? I'd better show this to my other half - he'll definitely want to step-up the TTC if he knows that!

    Seriously, though, this must be a very scary time for you Nikabella. I'll keep my fingers and toes crossed for you. Hope it goes well x

    What do you mean by 8+2? I dont understand that lol can you explain? I am 9 weeks pregnant, lmp started on 4th June 09

    Your booking in appointment time isnt early is it?, I had mine last week when I was 8 weeks, they need to get blood tests etc (there are some that are to be done 5/6 weeks, I cant remember the names of them now but they are in my book lol)

    I am sure you will be fine, but I understand why you are nervous, you will be ok (((hugs)))

    I hate the boob growth, I was already a DD and I dont want them any bigger :( I havent been measured yet but I would say mine have gone up 2 sizes

    MsBella - my cycle length changes from 27 - 32 days so have gone with 32 days before testing, just in case AF comes late.

    Congrats snuggles on the job.

    AF spotting gone for me, so was getting ready for some serious bding, but now had major barny with OH. Hes on night shifts at the mo as well, so cant see us making up for quite a while. And I am far too stuborn to make the first move :mad:

    Oh well, sticky baby dust to you all.
