Those who are waiting to TTC

RebekahR

I have been reading ttc books to get more of a hand on my cycle-what to expect-what I need to do etc. Have had blood tests to check for Rueblla. Am all immune so ready to go there. Have finished both books and recently brought the book I think QQ? said about that shows you the daily development of the baby. So that's coming with amazon. I looked up folic acid and the cheapest is sainburies at £1.05 for 90. Buy 2 get 1 free. I am taking a general vitamin and iron supplement daily at moment. Anyone found out if it's ok to take cranberry tablets still?

Oh this is a nonsense... I do not have time to read two threads!

Ladies as someone here has said (I really must start to try to remember names/comments... at the moment many of you as a whole are just a blob of MSN commentators bar a few who have stuck out to me. I do apologise).

Lost my train of thought.... anyway there is no need for anyone to be hounded out.. Oh I've remembered: as someone said, the majority want you there. It is the reason why I decided not to not post.

Plus many of you are going through issues that my husband and I are/have. Ideally I wouldn't really be trying to a baby you probably have a stronger urge than I do therefore you are better fitted to the TTC board than I am. (I am happy to have/not a baby, my husband is the: 'oh look at that darling baby', 'Where would we put a cot', 'I wonder what our child would look like', whereas I'm more: 'you would be home alone with baby right now', and 'how will I cope with sleepness nights'.

(I do want a baby, our child would not be neglected by us or unwanted... and I will make an excellent mother. I know because I care.)

Gosh I am waffling... Ladies, come back. We don't do this 'don't talk to so and so business'. It feels like you have been shut out of a party.:(

Your wafling makes a lot of sense!
However I think these ladies have made up their minds (at least for the time being) and I don't think any amount of pleading will change that at the moment (although I wish it would )

On second thoughts... maybe some cake and crisps would tempt them back.... c'mon ladies follow the high salt, high fat yummy goodness back this way .......

I may be tempted by a truckload of S&V crisps! hahaha

It's lovely to see you ladies here, and how much you want us, but I also don't want anyone else on the TTC thread to feel unwelcome because we are there. IYSWIM.

I think that at the very least, we should give it some time for people to calm down and move forward a bit. And don't worry, i'm still checking the thread so I will be popping on to congratulate anyone who gets their BFP!

I have no idea what went wrong on the other thread as I never felt I should read it as I didn't feel I belonged to it. And the reason for that is that we're going to try for a baby as soon as we paid back our loan (october,november this year). But I feel this thread might suit me:).

We're a youngish couple, OH is 34, me 31. We've appr. £9.5k debt at the moment. The debt was taken out instead of a mortgage, I'm the main breadwinner so my salary makes a huge difference at the moment. Hoping to pay back the loan by the end of October, beginning of NOvember than will start trying for a baby. The reason for the wait is that after the loan's gone, we'll need to build up a saving nest as my OH's salary will hardly pay for bills/food/etc, we def won't have any extra money left if I go on maternity leave. At the moment I also have 2 employers so qualify for 2 sets of maternity pay but this might change by September- I really don't want to go back to work after 4 or 5 months just because we can't afford 'me' staying at home for 9 months.

Welcome to the thread. You've made massive inroads into clearing your debt so far!

The intention is to have it out in December. I understand where you're coming from, but we've (I say we...!) decided to stick with the original date. Then we'll go for 6 months or so of 'not trying, not preventing' while my cycle settles down. Psychologically I think it'd be easier not conceiving for 6 months if there's a 'reason' if that makes sense.

S0d what FF says - when do YOU think you OV'ed?

Fair enough. What works for one, won't for another and vice versa.

Well, I originally thought that I had ov'd on CD15, but my temps continued to stay very low until CD24. But CD15 would make my LP a nice, healthy 12 days. It is possible that my temps were inaccurate or influenced by outside factors I guess. *shrugs* Who knows? lol

I'll need to do some of those OPK's to be sure and I don't want to start on them yet.

A big welcome to Kavics17 too! And well done on hammering down the debt. Doing the same here also.

CD2 here. Yesterday started off slow and painfree and ended up the opposite! But FF had my ov day as CD23 which only gives me a LP of 4 days this month! :eek: That's not good! I hope it resolves itself in the next couple of months.

Looking at your chart, could you have ov'd at CD20?

Entirely possible also, but that still makes my LP too short.

Because you love us! And we love you! :D
