    Hi everyone!
    Please can I join in for a while? I posted on the wrong thread yesterday (well, pregnant or not, it's definitely less than 12 weeks, lol ;) )
    I am 26, been married for a year, came off the pill earlier this year after having lots of problem with cysts, ovaries, etc! First day of last period was 30th July. No idea how long my cycles are, they've varied since I came off the pill but I think they are between 21-28 days.
    We have not been TTC but also not trying to prevent, if that makes sense! Would be over the moon if I was pg.
    Woke up yesterday morning with an awful metal taste in my mouth, have been weeing for England the last few days and had a bit of spotting. It wasn't until I did a search online that I thought I *might* be pg. Did a test when I got home yesterday and it was bfn so, have saved the other test to do when it's the right time. (Help - when is the right time..?)
    Thanks for reading! Hope everyone has a good day!
    Ash xx

    ETA - In case you haven't noticed, I'm new to all this cycle stuff... Was on the depo injection for YEARS and then on a pill for one year. This year is the first that I've had periods for a LONG time..! (Had to go on pill at very young age due to migraines and period probs) TMI..?!? :o

    Hello everyone
    I'm back from my hols and CD4 - came at the most perfectly wrong moment :mad:. Slightly heavier this month so less worried but still very different. Had a fab time away with friends and everyone was making exciting plans for next year so now I don't want to get pg then :rotfl:

    Teenie - c'mon already, you must have tested this morning!

    Welcome to Womble and ashbart (first thing in the morning to test btw)

    teenie -Very Exciting, sounds good, test, test, test!:)

    phunkles - Sorry AF has showed, amazing how many symptoms we all seem to have, does your head in doesnt it? Hope you had a good holiday.

    womble -Big fat welcome womble.

    ddebski sorry your still feeling a bit off colour, but a doggie would be lovely. love mine.

    Ashbart Welcome too!

    evansangel Sorry to hear that, hopefully he will feel better soon.

    Laura Sorry witchy has arrived.

    fanta hopefully you can persuade hubby tonight.

    CD17 for me today, managed to persuade DH last night, but not this morning, to be honest I am a bit sore! Now ladies I got my first line on sunday on the OPKs, how long do you reckon the fertile period will last? I would say it may not have been positive on sunday, but deffo was yesterday, we DTD yesterday, how many more days may the window be open for? Have a good day everyone, sorry if I have missed any one.
    I wonder if any one else has waves of fear, fear of not being able to concieve, fear of being pg, fear of the birth, fear of being a mummy?

    OMG - your last sentence is how I feel all the time. I worry I've left it too late, worry I'm been infertile my whole life and never know about it, worry I'm too selfish to be a good mummy etc........ Think it's normal (well, I hope it is!!) :D

    xDx
    Fear is temporary, regret is forever.....

    Oh gosh yes. Fear of still being here this time next year, fear that because I didn't get a grip on my health problems sooner I've ruined my chances, fear of losing all my friends who aren't interested in kids and giving up the fun things we do together and then feeling guilty for being so selfish.

    Thankd Debs, Good to know its not just me, TBH when I was young, I allways wanted little ones, but the older I got, the more scared I got, and wasnt sure, and thats exactly how I feel, but then I think if I get to 50 and its too late would I regret it, and I really think I would, and I do really want a baby now, but am still so scared, my mother wasnt the best, and I just hope I will be ok?
