Trying for a Baby Part 7

Thanks for clarifying QQ. I have to confess the last thing I would expect to find on a thread about women who are trying to conceive, buried amongst some genuine tragedies over the last 24 hours, is a post from an already pregnant woman currying sympathy, because if she were not already pregnant, it might be hard for her to become so again :eek:. Some people really find it hard to judge their audience!
I would be very careful about adding 'restrictions' to this thread, everyone here is from different stages of trying for a baby - from those who have tried for years and have plenty of knowledge and experience to help each other with, to those who are new and enthusiastic who keep the PMA up across the board.
its not as if fluffnutter wandered onto the board and started to moan about how hard life is being pregnant, she was merely joining in the current thread topic of 'eggs'.
and finally, take this as you may, you already have children Nicki, does that mean someone should berate you and tell you that you cant join in with sharing woes of cd1 or whatever because you already have children ? or are those who have graduated from this thread now banned from it ? because thats effectively what you have just posted to Fluffnutter !!Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:"Just because you are offended, doesnt mean you are right" Ricky Gervais0 -

Well said :T
I lurk on this thread quite a lot to keep up to date on how everyone is but I very rarely post as I feel unwelcome (by some posters, not the majority) since I got my BFP. Even when I got my BFP I still felt I had to justify it to some posters. Some assumed (in my opinion) because I'd only been posting a short while that I hadn't been trying long when in fact I should really have been posting on the 12months + thread as I'd been trying so long. I know how frustrating TTC can be and how emotional you can get but sometimes some posters on here are not very nice and it can put people off posting. I'm going to go back to lurking and hope to see some of you in the other pregnancy threads so we can chat. Xx:j little fire cracker born 5th November 2012 :j0 -
Does anyone know if it's possible for me to give my FF VIP log in details to someone and them change all the details so they can use it themselves? or does that not work?You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

This ttc is so emotional and it's hard for people around to really understand what we go through. So it's great to have such a forum with people going through the same thing and to feel that there's people who understand.
When AF arrived recently I was is floods of tears for days, fed up of not being pregnant. How do you explain that to people? I honestly thought when I came off the pill 18 months ago I'd be pregnant staright away, but not a sniff of a BFP.
But now the AF bit is over it's time to look towards another cycle and another chance of that BFP, so bring it on!0 -
Right ladies. Can someone a little more experienced give me some advice.
For the last few days I have been getting what I can only describe as 'cramps'. A bit like when AF is due, but not as intense and I've not been getting that 'feeling' I associate with her appearance.
I have also been getting a huge amount of pain in my lower abdomen when I move to fast, or roll over in bed, sneeze or just stretch a little bit further than I usually do. It feels like having cramp and I freeze and can't move. OH had to roll me back over a couple of days ago because I was in agony.
I remember that pain from my previous pregnancies and am pretty sure it was to do with my muscles and ligaments stretching as baby got bigger. But, why would I be getting it now? And why is my right boob leaking in the mornings?
Every pregnancy of mine has been vastly different but I don't remember getting any of the above when I've not been pregnant. Am I getting my hopes up?14th October 201020th October 20113rd December 20130 -
I can't read back as I'm on the phone with limited reception, but 100% agree with chocolate is life. It's so hard and you feel so alone. I have stopped seeing some friends as ttc feels like the elephant in the room, and o just want rop be able to say "yes, I'm pregnant", but it never happens.. Fingers still crossed though.
Anyway, I have done a ridiculous non mse thing, and am now sipping champagne in an airport lounge, off for a quick long haul trip! just for fun to go surprise a friend. I'm very excited! See yall next week.0 -
it is hard to deal with your emoshens i find every month hard i know it is silly but every time my cycle comes on i end up down for the days i am on the disopintment and when you talk to ppl who has kids they just say it will happen when its ment to happen n its like saying its okay for you to say that becauses you have kids and dont think they realise it hurts not having one when you raily want one and am not jellous of them i dont hate them kids are gifts but it does hurt and at moment am in limbo cos i dont know wot levels low and what is around the corner n wot to do its just a wating game n a hard one at that xx0

And I also agree chocolate IS life.0
