Trying for a Baby Part 7
Options
Comments

Thanks for your replies - people are welcome to call me ani if they get confused by the whole numbers and letters thing, it is a bit cumbersome but I dont know how to change it now. I too will be watching OBEM shortly. I always cry buckets when the baby pops out, don't know why and it's not just one tear but I have a wet face by the end!
I've realised today that I want to start TTC now because we were gonna try for no 2 this year anyway, but later in the year, but I hate hate hate my job, cannot stand it, so the sooner I can get preg and have that light at the end of the tunnel, the better. We're only bringing it forward six months or so, but I feel a bit bad that I'm TTC essentially because I hate my job - doesn't make sense to look for a new job if I'm going to be pregnant soon (hopefully). Anyway I think my OH wanted to ideally wait a little longer but I'm more of the mentality that once I decide to do something I just want to do it. Also there's no guarantee of when it'll happen plus I may miscarry etc. So better get on with it in my opinion.
Hopefully I can learn all the tricks of the trade from you ladies on here, last time round it was an unplanned thing, which is good in the sense that you don't have to go through all the waiting and trying but a bit of a shock to the system when you aren't expecting it I can tell ya! Anyway it'll be good to get that positive result this time round and think 'yeah!' rather than 'f*** f*** f*** f*** f***'!0 -
Flee - hugs for feeling hormonal and early night and OBEM sounds good.
I am going to watch OBEM and will no doubt cry as i do every week but I do love watching it.
Hugs to all who are having a hard time x0 -
watching OBEM and remembering why I could never be a midwife - some people would be slapped silly !! Dont think this weeks will make me cryBow Ties ARE cool :cool:"Just because you are offended, doesnt mean you are right" Ricky Gervais0

OBEM - not a tearful episode. What was the Lithuanian woman's problem with letting hubby in?0

I dont know if it was because she was foreign but her whole attitude towards the labour seemed to just make life harder for herself !?Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:"Just because you are offended, doesnt mean you are right" Ricky Gervais0 -
Hi I'm back girls:wave:
I haven't ov'd yet so timing is good so far, don't want it to be too late though:undecided
I still have 5 pages to catch up, but here goes so far:
Littlezee, yes I know I said I won't temp etc, but old habits die hard:p I'll stop temping as soon as I confirm ov:cool:
As for my MIL, she's out of the hospital awaiting results.
2ba3c, happy belated birthday!:wave:
Sa-ra-ra-ra, so sorry to see you here again, hope we'll graduate together with our forever babies very soon (((hugs))).
That FF promo sounds good:money:
Time2deal, MERFE, Leopardlady, Butterfly72 and Definitely Blonde huge hugs for AF:(
Candlewax, (((hugs))).
TTC40, fingers crossed for brilliant SA:)
MrsHappy, I know fertility treatments are expensive, so it's up to you, but in our case we've given up on a lot of things so we won't regret later for not trying our best when we had the chance:o
MrsDave, so sorry to see you leave (((hugs))). Hope you'll keep on not trying but not preventing in case something happens.
Secretdebts, hi there!:wave: How's your CBFM trial going?
vesper, welcome back:wave: Rope bridge suspended over a choppy sea?:eek:
Tea Lover, sounds like AF is nearing:D Hope you haven't killed your boss yet:p
Fannyanna, Yay for re-starting ttc!:j0 -
Our conversation when dh got home:
Me: are we gonna bd tonight then?
Dh: yeah, sure -after my shower
Me: but before tea?
Dh: oh. Um. Ok, I'll have my shower after then. Finish what you're doing, and come up and we'll bd
Me: ok.
me: ....whoever said romance was dead, eh?
Dh: anyone trying to conceive, I'd say.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
I read this out to DW and she said "I guess we're quite lucky then, because we dont have the bd demands to get the sperm where it needs to go.
Umm, I had to remind her that inserting a syringe into my hoo-ha, is hardly romantic!
In fact, I had notions that we could try to make it romantic and be all 'we're making a baby, isn't it amazing *kissy kissy etc etc*' - but no, the reality is:
Me screaming: keep that syringe warm and don't shoot the sperm onto the ceiling this time
Me again: I can't get my damn knickers off. Help. HELP MEEEE
Me again: RIGHT QUICK. Get it in.
Me again: Right now I need to come. Help me. No don't help me. Quicker. No, not like that, up a bit. Dammit!!! *getting increasingly frustrated*
Yeah, super romantic. :rotfl::rotfl:0
