Trying for a Baby Part 7

mrsj28

:j congratulations 20something!! I hadn't even had a chance to welcome you to the thread! What a great start to the month.

Can I predict 10 for February please (ideally including me, although I'm not feeling hopeful.. QQ could you add me to the testing list for Tuesday next week please?)

Secrets - high five :T (does anybody have a high five smiley?)- good predictions from us for January, for some reason I am very excited to be a winner!!!

So much else to catch up on - definitelyblonde, so sorry to hear of your loss, sending ((hugs))

Love the idea of short cycles (was that TeamLowe's suggestion...? I've lost track). I totally agree, wouldn't mind not getting pregnant on each 'go' if the next turn came around much quicker! It's all this waiting...

Speaking of waiting, am half way through the 2ww... trying so hard not to symptom spot (nothing to spot really in any case) but isn't it crazy how you can convince yourself that you have all the right symptoms? I really don't want to drive myself up the wall like this but can't seem to help obsessively checking my boobs, cervix, imagining stomach cramps... you name it, I'm checking it! I swear if somebody told me that growing an extra finger was a sign of early pregnancy I'd feel something growing next to my thumb!

I think I am one day further along though, checked from past months and the OV symptoms I had would suggest I am 8DPO, not 7DPO. So that's one good thing. Trying to hold out until 14DPO before testing but might cave at the weekend as I am going out for a few drinks and want to know if I'm ok to drink.

((hugs)) to all those needing and wanting them - and lots of sticky February baby dust to all!

Also, meant to say - it's lovely to hear from the pregnant lurkers!! Namely emsbet, kitten_pie, sexymouse and all those I have missed! Great to hear how you are doing and advice/support is always welcome here

2b, turn that tv off!! Obem should only be watched when in a positive state of mind, imo. I sky + mine and watch it when I'm in the right place.

well after all the chatter about cervix positions last week, when I noticed some suspiciously ov-ish cm & symptoms I thought I've have a check, and I think I found it, and I think it's open! So looks like I'll be jumping dh already been making up for lost time for the last 2 days so I really hope we're in with a shot this time. We really need something good to look forward to

Cleo - try keeping your opk's add a little sticky label to one end with the date and CD number on and then keep them in a ziplock or freezer bag, then you can look back at them and compare, as I nearly missed my +ve opk as i was reading them too soon and discarding them.

QQ, I don't know if I do lol. I feel a bit nauseaus but think thats cos we have one of those plug in air fresheners and its on really high. Other than that I don't know.

So AF due this weekend not holding out much hope don't think DH is looking forward to a combination of AF = bfn & me being without DD2 for the 1st time over night since she was born :eek:

How old is your DD2?

My DD is 2 1/2 and I left her for the first time this weekend just gone. Left her with Oh though, not ready to leave her with anyone else just yet. She was fine, missed me but not loads, and although she did wet herself once and poo herself once (presumably some kind of protest at me not being there, as it's never happened before) she was happy to have all that time with Daddy.

My news. I am sooooo tired, cannot keep my eyes open, but have to BD tonight as we didn;t last night and I still have EWCM so must must must do it! :rotfl:

Boobs still very sore, and also much bigger! My bikini hardly fitted me at swimming today, I was busting out of the top! So part of thinks I'm Pg, another part thinks I can;t have OVd last week if I am Oving now, another part thinks maybe I am and if I'm lucky I could get pG with both eggs (!!) and another part of me thinks I should shut up and stop thinking lol.

Right, posted a missive last night and the computer crashed before I could send it... booo!!!

hugs to those who need it - esp definitely blonde, lots of lovely support here

I too like the pregnant lurkers!!! giving hopes and tips - hang around!!

Wowwwww 20somethings, congrats, so soon! happy healthy pregnancy to you

Mmmm can I play the predicting game? Going to go for 11 - feeling brave, all that pre valentines bding!

Not sure if i would have the time (or inclination!) to dash home for bding at lunch - congrats Birdie!!

Good luck bigzippy - you deserve it, lots of sticky baby dust...

And ha ha zcrat, not sure I want to know about hen EWCM!

I watched OBEM too, new favourite program but not so keen on Jess this week. Still managed to bring a tear to my eye as always!

Finally (TMI alert), was trying to say AF had arrived yesterday - but has now gone again... had maybe a 1/4 teaspoon of blood early evening yesterday so was convinced and told hubbie to get ready for round 2 soon! but then completely stopped???? Am still assuming it is because no real cycle after coming off pill but will be testing as soon as the damm things arrive to make sure (annoyingly the Clearblue tests arrived today but not wasting them!) So hopefully testing tomorrow, no doubt BFN but will let you know x

happy thoughts to you all

Good luck welshgirl
