hi all, i'm back now everyone's being happy and nice again!

Glad you are back:wave:

I just burst into tears!! :eek: I was properly hysterical for about 10 mins, and he had no idea why...poor him Once I managed to tell him, it was ok and he gave me a big cuddle and we chatted about it etc, but I think we were both quite shocked at my reaction.

(((hugs))):o

Anyhoo, I'm ok now! Been a bit out of sorts all day but went for a jacuzzi and steam room at the gym this evening and feel more relaxed now (I remembered whilst in the jacuzzi that you're not supposed to do that sort of thing whilst TTC, but ho hum)

Glad you had a good chat and relaxing time:o
Good idea to do all those jacuzzi etc while you can:cool:

In terms of exercise-doing and weight-loss, how is everyone else doing? (I know a few people said they needed/wanted to lose weight or improve their health & fitness).

I'm back to my pre-IVF weight, lost over 6lbs:j

A friend of mine tried for 3 years to get pregnant, and when she went for further investigations (the put some blue dye through her system or something) she is convinced that cleared a blockage or something in her tube, as she conceived the next month.

Mum had trouble conceiving her 2nd baby (me:p) after her mc for 4 years, had her tubes cleared, and conceived the following month:cool:

Anyway, it doesnt hurt to know any of this, especially as I genuinely have a feeling I will have problems conceiving now.

Lose that feeling right now PMA:j

I've given up smoking (1 month, 1 week and 1 day! wooo!) and I've completely cut out caffeine, so now I am ready to diet.

Well done:T

DH and I had unprotected sex on 28th May (too much booze after the champions league final!) we are usually so careful to use a condom. I am pretty sure I ovulated sometime around then (Last AF 12th May, usually 30-35 day cycle). Last Sunday (about 7dpo ish) I had strange pains like AF cramps but really dull, went on most of the evening,I never get cramps only on the day on my period, maybe the odd twinge beforehand but nothing continuous like that.

I just don't feel 'right'. Felt a bit nauseous when eating breakfast yesterday and today, i'm sure it is waaaaay too early to be getting these symptoms if I was pregnant and it is probably some kind of bug. I took an early response test tonight and got a -ve, by my calculations its about 9dpo now, am I way to early? Sorry I am a bit clueless! Thanks for any help you can give.

You should test at 14DPO. Some get -ve at 13DPO;)
Implantation occurs at around 7-10dpo, so symptoms may start now, but it takes a couple of days for the hcg hormones to reach your pee.
Perhaps test again in a few days time?
Make sure you test with FMU (first morning urine), and good luck:)

(Also, I really want to be one of those women who have a lovely neat bump - where they're slim everywhere else but it's obvious that they're pregnant, rather than have just eaten too much lunch...!) :rotfl:

Me too!:j

Welcome to NoraB and any other newbies I've missed

:T Congratulations! :T to Northern78? and any other BFPs I've missed

to the pants/not as good as you hoped test results (can't remember the specifics now, sorry, but I think fannyanna was one of them - but as it's only supposed to be done 7DPO I'd think you were (unfortunately) being optimistic having it done on CD21 after a 7/8month cycle - I have had something like 3 cycles in 6months and I wouldn't bank on doing a 7DPO test at CD21...anyway, my point is, try not to be too discouraged by this one test - not many women have the "average/normal" 28day cycle, with ov on CD14, as the ladies on here will attest to)

:j to the good news from the fertility people twigpig - all the best for the rest of your pregnancy

BB I've lost 1.5st now Need to lose more, for the same reasons you mentioned, especially with PCOS too, but with the gall bladder and waterworks tests etc going on atm it's kinda gone on the back burner. But at least I've managed to keep it off whilst being self-indulgent

Can't remember anything else...:wave: to everyone else

Think I might lurk for a bit

Welcome Back BB!!

Congrats Northern78, hope you have a healthy happy pregnancy.

Well done on losing so much weight!! I can't even lose 7 pounds

As for me CD2, af arrived yesterday evening... DH thought he had supersperm and thought we'd catch first month, even though we never BD'd enough...

Happy BDing all!

Gops x

Just bl**dy tried to multi quote and its all gone wrong!!!

you lot have been chatting :rotfl:

Congratulations Northern78 !!

Fannyanna - ok well you sounded like me lol but i havent got any 'problems' eg no AF or PCOS that i know of - only time will tell but my CD23 came back as i had OV but some people dont OV every month so i wouldnt worry too much as your bloods are being retaken

Well done everyone on the weightloss!!!

i need to shift a couple pounds im not overweight but i feel sluggish as i keep overindulging but am struggling to - normally im off out walking and swimming but this year cannot motive myself :mad:

CD 14 my OPK came yesterday so i did 2 tests last night but nothing - i think i am OV as i am 'wet' but i do not have EWCM so not sure whats going on :mad: anyway womenlog says i should OV on thursday so will see what happens

You mean you can get symptoms this early? I had no idea!

Toothfairy, you CAN get symptoms very early indeed. Not everyone does, but it happens.
I started to get symptoms at 4DPO (and past BD!). Ultra tired and nauseous, a bit emotional, a HUGE blind spot by my mouth and slightly dizzy. Managed to get a super faint TLP on a cheapie at +11, +12, +13DPO and then a proper 1-2 weeks BFP on a digi on +14.

Morning all, just popping in to say hello so you don't think I've gone walkies lol!! Nothing much to report on the TTC front!

I see you've all be discussing weight loss. I am now (back) at my target weight, I initially lost the weight on the rosemary conely diet andhave now got back to target by doing slimming world. I'd recommend either of these to anyone. I've also done ww and some of the online calorie counting ones and the one bit of advice I'd give is.......they all work if you stick to the rules!!!

norabatty_2

Thanks for the warm welcome folks!

QQ - how did you get landed with the lovely job of keeping track of everybody??!! Just incase you need to know:

NoraBatty, 31, TTC since 01/11, 1mc 04/11, CD12, awaiting ovulation

Am having a girlie weekend away this weekend and just KNOW that I'm going to OV while I'm away, am working abroad from this evening to Friday afternoon and then have to leave around 5pm to meet the girls so I've ordered OH to come home from work around 3pm on Friday for a bit of How's Your Father and I'll drop him back to work afterwards :D
OH thinks it's a bit extreme but isn't complaining at the same time:)

Thanks - me too :j but its supposed to change and say "I’m a tiger, I eat, I sleep, I roar, I hunt, I climb, I wash" like this Im not sure why it doesnt change

And on the subject of neat little bumps, with my first I was a whale and put on over 5 stone (not sure how as couldnt eat anything for the first 5-6 months) I was HUGE :eek: and wearing 22-24 trousers that were cut down the sides of the waist so I could get them on
Some poor man made the mistake of stopping right in front of me with his little girl and saying "look that lady's having twins !" when I still had 6 weeks left to go :mad: which i promptly replied "NO IM BLOODY NOT" and spent the rest of the afternoon in tears :rotfl:

So im REALLY hoping for a nice neat little bump this time

mozzyc

Here's to neat little bumps haha! Shame mishka, that must of been awful!!!

That really made me chuckle - although I appreciate at the time it would not have been funny at all. Personally I would have drop kicked him (if I could get my leg high enough ).
