Trying for a Baby Part 7

Good job I'm not near OV at the moment, I swear I am going to kill OH soon. He's had the last two days off work, which is usually very much appreciated as we don't get to spend much time together as I work weekends. So you would think he would use this opportunity to spend time together and do something, or get some jobs done like sort the garden out..... nooooooooooo instead we spent yesterday at my work (he's chairman of the committee that runs it) cleaning out the container as everyone else is completely incapable of cleaning up after them selves. I shouldn't have even been tidying up as it's not even my area to look after.
Today he has spent almost the entire day watching the athletics on the tv. The only way I could even get him to cut the lawn was threatening to chuck the tv out of the window.
So that's those days off, I've got work in a hour anyway and working all weekend, and have spent no time with him at all. grrrrrr.Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.0 -
Hello everyone,
Sorry for not being present the last couple of days but I had lots of events to attend to this week.
Nothing important to report here as it’s 6 CD. I’ve started taking Mr T syrup and it taste horrible (it’s the adult chesty cough syrup with guaifenesin – hope that’s the right syrup) and also I’ve started taking Vitamin B complex from Mr T.
My temps this cycle are all over the place. Not sure why. Today were really high so not sure if it’s because I had lots of bad dreams last night + I’ve slept really deep or if it happens without any reason. Also yesterday and a day before I had lot of pain in the uterus area.
Welcome to all newbies and sorry for everyone how had a miscarriage recently. Before joining this thread, I never knew that 1 in 4 BFPs end up in miscarriage. Scary statistics.:eek:
I’ve haven’t read properly the last couple of pages but you’ve been taking a lot of losing weight. I struggled all my life with my weight and for 8 years with PCOS (I was on pill for long time) but last year I decided to tackle this problem and joined a gym and 1 year on the line I’m at the right weight.
I’ve used MyFitnessPal to record what I ate and that helped me to see where the problem was and also to keep me motivated. The first few weeks I’ve struggled but then started to get better and better and now I have a healthy 22.5 BMI. I’m still recording my food but now, for the first time in my adult life, I feel that food doesn’t control me.
Sa-ra-ra - Last cycle was my first TTC cycle and I’ve used OPKs for the first time. On my OPKs said that I should leave the pee sample for 30 minutes before testing so I’ve done that. I was surprised to see 2 lines on day 17. The test line was really dark, darker then the control line. My tests were IC. If I were you I would follow the instructions. Good luck.
Nicki - So sorry for temp drop, big ((hugs))
TTC40, Mitedby30,Mogwai and CandleWax Big hugs
Mrsj28 - How is the lunaception test going? Any positive OPKs yet? About your OH, you should try to help him (give him a massage and dress sexy and you never now, he might be more relaxed)
Tinkwings Hugs for your cold.
Abis congratulation for your temp rise. I hope it will stay like that for the next 9 months:D
Have a nice evening ladies.

My BMI is similar to yours, am trying to get it down to 20.8 (that's when I conceived my mc baby).Sa-ra-ra-ra wrote: »*does a happy dance into the room*

Evening Ladies!
Been away for a few weeks as have had to get back into work etc, have been reading everyday stilll though!
Ok, I can't hold it in anymore. Looked at QQ's testing list and saw I am CD33 today which should be the day AF gets here, I thought it wasn't til tomorrow, so thought "why not, lets give it a go" got my 99p test out.. BFP!!!!!!! :j:j:j:j
I can't even explain how happy/excited I am. Wasn't 100% about the cheapie test so found out a clearblue I had from last month and tested with that an hour later, 2-3 weeks!! I didn't even test first thing in the morning either, this was about 6.30pm and 7.30pm so must be pretty strong levels!
I honestly thought we were out again this month but we must have got it exactly the right time! AAhh so excited!!0 -

I don't know if you remember QQ but I was SS'ing at like 8dpo the other week! About a week after BD'ing about 4 days in a row over ov, I was feeling sick everyday around 130pm we were at the garden centre with my parents and I had an awful wave of nausea I had to excuse myself! Around the same time I felt like I was about to come on my period, like running to the toilet every 5 minutes even though I wasnt due on yet! After all of that though, absolutely nothing, i'd resigned myself to another month of not catching it.
This week i'e had REALLY heavy feeling boobs though!! they're like rocks, I never ever have sensitive boobs but they're awful now!
Off to my parents tomorrow so going to get a 'nanny and grandad' cardGoing to tell DH's parents too and work of course but apart from that nobody else until 12 weeks.
I'm really worried though because my work is quite physical, i've been lifting heavy metalwork and lifesize mannequins for the last 2 weeks as my manager is also pregnant so can't do anything!!I've done 2 tests but still can't believe it, I don't think i'll fully believe until we get our scan at 12 weeks!
I'd also like to say ladies, I am overweight and have managed to catch so please don't feel like you can't get pregnant AT ALL. I am definately going to change my eating habits now though, because I do not want anything to go wrong and it being my fault for being too lazy to eat proper food!
I wanted to make it special for DH, like drawing "hello daddy" on my tummy or somehting but when it got to it, I ran into the bedroom screaming WAKE UP WAKE UP!!! and shoved the test in his face, I couldn't wait0 -
Congrats cherrydrop, we needed a bfp to cheer us all up! Wishing you a healthy and happy 9 months.
I'm out of the race this month too cd1 for me again today QQ please send my name back to the bottom of your list
I'm not even sure if I ov'ed this month I never got a +ve on an opk at all, I've been lurking on this thread all month but had a bout of 'baby rabies' which is what my dh had nicknamed my jealous when others get pregnant outbursts, so I havent wanted to post much.
Welshgirl, so sorry to see you back, you joined this thread about the same time as me and I'm ashamed to admit I was jealous of your bfp happening so quick, I'm sorry. I really hope you catch again quickly and this time its your forever baby ((hugs))
QQ I had a dream you got your bfp and we all had a committee meeting to vote for the person who would take over the lists.
I'm ready to focus on a new cycle and making every effort to belive that this will be the month! I've ordered some preeseed and some his and hers vitamins.If at first you dont succeed, try, try again0
