  • Don't forget a walk by the beach in Swansea - good free things :) My dad used to live there and I would always make my hubby walk by it when its moonlit and then have to walk on beach and take my shoes off and even though he is like, sigh, huff puff! he then chases me on beach! soppy man.

    Trying to think what else you can do but I bet you have loads planned. I love frankie and benny's, sounds like a great val's day meal. There's also yummy cocktails if you're not ov'ing yet. Will read back to see if i need to take that out.

    enjoy your time by the sea teamlowe, i hope its a good one. Is your payday like mine where it'll go in half 11/midnight on day before? xx

    That sounds like a great idea :) we don't have much planned, just exploring :) we're there for two nights but having wednesday evening in Cardiff as we have old friends there :) x x
    I think it does yeah, never really Checked before as I'm usually in bed by ten lol I do know that if I get paid on a Monday it goes in Saturday evening which has proved quite useful in the past lol x x

    I get jelious with other people getting pregnant too, a lot of my friends are either pregnant or already have children. But there is a small group of us within a bigger group of mates that meet up everyweek. Only one out of this group has a baby, and she is the only one I have never been badly jelious of. Well yeh I am slightly envious of her, but not in a bad way. She instead has spent ages talking to me about trying for a baby and having one.
    The other 2 mates aren't bothered about kids yet, but love them and love acting like surrogate aunties.

    I hit a marker in my life yesterday when my friends came over to dinner. When suddenly we realised that we were happier to meet up at my house (me and my friend with the baby live in the middle of everyone distance wise and I have a bigger living room) and have loads of baby cuddles, and discussing stuff like babies and knitting. In fact so much so that 3 of us are off to NI in 2 weeks time and we all sat there discussing what we wanted to do over there, and looked at each other at exactly the same time and answered 'anything, just not clubbing'.


    I'm a green eyed monster if anyother of my friend's/aquaintances are pregnant though. I'm afraid I am one of those women that walk through town occasionally getting all angry at the other pregnant people.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.
  • Hello everyone.

    I used to post on here about 5 months ago. I stopped because DH and I have had a difficult ttc journey.

    We started ttc 8 months ago just after we got married. I have since had a mc at 5 weeks and surgery for an ectopic pregnancy at 8 weeks, where I had a tube removed. That was just over 2 months ago and we are now ttc again.

    I am on CD 20 today. I have been doing OPK's this cycle but unless I ovulated early I don't seem to have ovulated yet. I am worried that only having one tube and being in my mid 30's will affect our chances, but am trying to remain positive! My cycles have been longer than normal since surgery.

    I flit between being excited about ttc again to being terrified something bad will happen again, so was wondering if I could join you all to help me to keep sane through this weird and wonderful journey we are all on?

    Chances are hun your body and hormones are readjusting to only having the one tube now. Do you still have both ovaries? I only have one ovary and fallopian tube, and found after first having my op it took a few months for my body to settle down and get a period. I then got pg and had a miscarriage which was unrelated to the tube/ovary just down to bad luck and a few accidents. I split up with my ex and went on the implant for a while and when I came off it my cycles became 36 days long rather than the average 28 days.

    Really sorry to hear you had a rough time of it but try not to stress now hunni as you can still get pregnant with only one tube xx
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

  • Thanks for the welcomes. It will take me a while to read back and catch up on how all of you are doing. Ikkle, I still have both ovaries. Sorry to hear you have experienced similar. Fingers crossed for us both!!
  • Evening all, can i join you?:wave:

    Finally the OH has agreed we should start trying for a baby. I'm 40 so dont know how successful we'll be! Anyway, we started yesterday on CD11 and we'll have another go tonight!! Not sure if you should leave a day between BDing, but i have ewcm and dont want to miss the opportunity.

    I havent read all the thread yet and am not very knowlegdable on baby making, so i might be popping up here asking plenty of questions! In fact tips for tonight most welcome :rotfl:
