Trying for a Baby Part Six

BB1984

Hugs tinksy!

I really thought my AF was gonna start today, have had quite bad cramps on and off all day. Maybe it'll start tonight, seems to come at night more often than during the day for some reason.

Story of my OH and I - we met at uni, when I was in my first year at uni and he was in his final year - this was November 2002. He basically harassed me for a week by text until I agreed to go on a date with him! I didn't want anything serious, what with it being my first year away from home etc, but... :kisses2: It was really hard being apart throughout my 2nd, 3rd and 4th years at uni, as his job meant that we only saw each other at weekends, and not every weekend

But we stuck at it, moved in together after uni, he proposed in March 2008, and we married in August 2009, best day ever :heartsmil

My back is KILLING me, I don't know what's wrong with it but it seems to get bad overnight - I wake up in the early hours in pain, can't get comfortable, then it's really sore in the morning for the first couple of hours. I've had it before, and it went away eventually (we tried changing mattresses and it didn't seem to make any difference). Might see if the doctor can do anything - if it's this bad now, what's it going to be like when I'm pg? :eek:

hey bb i was beginning to wonder if everyone had run away lol!!

are you going to test again if AF doesn't appear???

uni relationships are hard, we met in our first year so had to spend the summers apart which is hard let alone the whole time.

Good evening to all my fellow ttc'ers !! I've decided to take the plunge and ordered a fertility monitor, cost me a fair bit :eek: but time really isn't on my side. At this rate I'm becoming a right old duffer and this month is the last chance to have a baby this year

All those years I spent trying to avoid becoming pregnant and now it's seeming like mission impossible :rotfl: PMA all the way for us all this month

Well I suppose I'll have to at some point! But not planning to any time soon, it just does my head in every time I get a BFN. It's not like it really upsets me (not yet, give it a few months!), but it is frustrating :mad:

DH just sat with me and watched OBEM for the first time ever! He asked me if I was going to make that much noise....! I said probably!

Well done mrs dave on buying the CBFM, worth every penny if it works! :j

Where abouts are you in Holland? 2 of my fave cousins stay over there, one in the Hague and one in Leiden. They're from Edinburgh and have lived in Holland for about five years now. About a year ago I went to stay with them for a while - my first time in Holland and it was fab! They have a slow boat for going up the canals on sunny days, such a nice pace of life! We had some good nights clubbing in the Hague too, down by the beach. good times! x

night ladies,

Bit sick of burgers now! lol Gonna make a sausage casserole tonight as I brought back some Walls sausages and some somerset pork casserole mixes. They are yummy! We are BIG fans of the sausage casseroles with garlic mashed potatoes. Nom, nom, nom, nom.

Sausage casserole sounds lovely:)
I see now the reason why you ate 3 burgers:D

I have been good today though, no crisps or chocolate and I've had 2 pieces of fruit already today.

well i have had a small amount of pinkish spotting, once fairly bright pink and once darker this afternoon along with cramps. I am pretty sure I am out,

(((Hugs))). It's not over 'till the witch arrives:o
As for me, I think I'm out too, just don't feel pg, and I think I know by now when it's working and when it's not. AF is due on 10th...

As for your LP, it's 11 days if you do get AF tomorrow, so it's long enough:)

So your DH must have known you are the one for him when he met you back in 2002:happyhear

Back pain is also a pg symptom:think:

I'd get IC OPKs too, and use that in conjunction with CBFM:cool:

OPK will show the LH surge, and one should ov 12-36hrs after the 1st positive, BUT, sometimes one could surge and not ov, and will surge again soon after, and ov after that. So it's important to keep BDing and temping to make sure you ov'd OK:o

It's the same with CBFM, but good thing about CBFM is that it'll show you the estrogen rise prior to the LH surge.

As far as I know, only CBFM sticks can measure estrogen. If you are skint, you can just get the sticks and read them manually (with eyes and brains) instead of lovely digital machine:D

You can sell CBFM on ebay after you've finished with it;)

Edit: OMG! I forgot to add.....CONGRATS on the BFP's ladies!! So nice to see. Pebbles - You must be dead chuffed, and finding out so late after expected AF must give some hope to those ladies experiencing long cycles at the moment.

It did...til she said she'd not tested before hand

CD52....*sigh*

Thanks:)

We are in our luteal phase, we are supposed to crave unhealthy food:D

This is one looooooong luteal phase I'm living then... :D;)

Off to GP tomoz (well today) to talk over the PCO and the insulin resistance test and all that...am nervous now it's here, again...he best not phone in sick again!! Talked with DH tonight about BBT charting, as we/he originally said we didn't want to do all that - too pressurised or clinical or whatever?? But when I talked to him tonight he said "yeah but that was before [the PCO and this monster cycle!], now it's like a challenge! I *will* get you knocked up!!":rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

So, I've duly ordered one, and a set of bathroom scales to see if that'll help motivate us to lose to lbs...:o

Just hope I don't get bored/forgetful/hacked off with doing the charting...:o:cool: and that my shonky immune system and sleep cycles don't interfere with it showing trends...

Btw, does the basic FF chart your weight too? And if so, is there a way I could make that bit private from the rest?:o

As for me and DH - we actually knew each other at/from college - never dreamed of hooking up!! But reconnected each other on the book of face and then started talking on msn, and then he'd pop round and we went for a drink or so together - still as friends - but then I went away for 4 days and we missed each other like crazy (and didn't stop texting!), so got together when I got back!! A year later he proposed, and just over a year after that we got wed -18months ago. So been together just over 3.5yrs :blushing:

tinksy

morning ladies I am feeling a bit more positive this morning, since that two bits of spotting I have had nothing hmmmmm last time that wasn't the case.

so we shall see however I will say I am completely shattered its this horrible dragging tiredness

big hugs to all x

No it doesn't, you have to pay for that AFIAK.

Good luck with your doctor today, and also with BBT & scales:)

Tiredness sounds good, hope AF stays away:o
