    When's your period due?

    I'm due to test tomorrow to see if we made a bean! If my hormones are anything to go by we may have I can't stop crying the past 2-3 days!

    Thanks everyone :)

    Rebekah I just read your MSN Chat on the other thread, I think he does want it, he is just being a man and doesn't want to talk about it all the time. Plus jokes etc, well men and women are on different planets for that. Through some of our wedding planning there were parts I was really worried that my OH didn't want but he did he just didn't want to dissect it in discussion. And when he teases/jokes about parts of the wedding after I have actually said don't do that to our wedding lol

    P due this Saturday. The only thing I miss about the pill is running a pack on when you have plans :( as honeymooning soon!
    Good luck for your test tomorrow I will be watching (lurking)!

    Thank you. It really messes with your mind this ttcing! How they do it month and month i've no idea lol. Yea I loved back to back. I miss the pill bad for that and no pmt/period pain etc etc. I would happily still take it - If it hadn't stolen my sex drive!!
    Yea my hubby was like yours for the wedding - per other thread lol. But on the day it was all ok. I've so convinced myself i'm pregnant I will be shocked if I'm not. Round and round on the roundabout we go lol.
  • Hi All

    COMP - Sorry to hear OH has pushed back the date, maybe he just needs time to adjust.

    Anyways AF decided to visit on the flight home from my hols yesterday so its time for me to graduate to the other board - would still like to lurk if possible and see how everyone is getting on.

    Hi guys! Not wrote anything for ages, as nothing exciting really but have been lurking to make sure I am up to speed.

    I think it is the time of the month for all our men!! I got accused of being baby-mad last night and that he was only having a baby to make me happy. Which, I suppose in a round about way is a lovely thing to say but I took it in totally the wrong context last night.

    OH came home boasting of the heap of !!!! car he's bought for breaking and I totally flipped and said it was not coming on my driveway. This resulted in him having a 'lie-down" in the bedroom and then me having to pester him to walk the dog. This then turned into me commenting on his lack of responsilblity and how will this work with a child blah blah blah....I was really on one!!

    I don't know why I went off on one last night but I think it is partly due to the fact I took my last contraceptive pill on Sunday; as we've changed our TTC date to December! However, aside from that I am feeling the best I have done in years, all the anxiety that I directed at work has disappeared and I am generally not rising to the bait my bosses throw in my direction! Suppose I never knew what the real me was, as I have been on the pill since I was 15! (half my life!!)

    afternoon all :)
    started my last-but-one packet of pills at the weekend, told DH and he started to look a bit panicky :rotfl:

    I'm getting a bit apprehensive about stopping them too though tbh, although by the time I stop it will be "safe to proceed" (as DH keeps saying :cool:) with respect to my work maternity leave entitlement we're not planning to start trying until march next year. I've got a whole list of questions running through my head - what if we get pregnant early by mistake (actually not a major trauma, once I've qualified for the enhanced maternity pay, but I don't think DH is quite ready), what if it takes a year for my periods to restart as GP said it might, what if i get terrible periods (been on the pill since 16, can't remember what they were like!), what if I'm a hormonal monster?! eek! tried discussing it with DH and he said "you could just stay on the pill if you're that worried" that's not going to make us a baby next year is it?! *sigh*

    Hugs lillibit ((HUGS))

    I was accused of being baby mad and obsessed too. *shrugs* I am a little. As I explained to him, I've been wanting a family of my own since I was very young, and experienced a miscarriage at a young age, and finally have found the man that I want to have kids with and I still have to wait. So yeah, I am a little obsessed and there's not much he can do about that. Asides from this recent argument, I rarely bring it up at all. So he did apologise for that one.

    What was your original TTC date? (rubbish memory here)

    also, since I've had no periods for 3 years, I'd forgotten how much I hated tampons/towels etc. I'm considering a mooncup. does anyone here use one? any advice/recommendations?
