    Morning QQ, lovely to see you back. How was the week with your sister? What did you get up to?
    Just went around all the places I go, and also ate at various places:p
    Otherwise, we chatted non-stop.
    6 year age gap has become smaller once we've grown up:p
    I've been through an entire pregnancy, been in medicated prem labour, had a c-section, put on and then lost weight etc etc. Hopefully you are right and that it's very small :)
    They may try clomid or may like to check your tubes (HSG).
    Things begin to get expensive if they want to open you up and check inside (lap & dye).

    You've made my catching up so much easier:kisses3:
    Thank you for the choccies, must admit, I've been indulging a bit, with no IVF to think about, I think it's OK to eat whatever I like:p
    Last 3 cycles I've cut down on carbs & sugar:o

    Hugs for CD1 Time2deal :grouphug:

    I like the thought of having a baby on board for christmas :xmassmile

    Ideally, I would really like a baby on board by my due date (2/12) as I think that might make it easier to cope with. I know I can't help it tho if I don't have one on board.

    Can you add me back to the front page again please QQ. TTC # 2 since October 2011, 1m/c in May 2012. Thank you :D

    I think you well and truly deserve yr choccies :D You do such a fab job for us all xxxx

    Hi Ladies.

    Newbie *lurker* here.

    I am looking to TTC end of year/beginning of next. I am currently covering a ladies maternity leave as my job and won't know until Dec if shes coming back and wanted to try and be there for a year before getting pregnant to ensure I get full maternity benefits meaning I can have at least a year of work with my baby.

    Plus I am studying an animal management course, done the first year and starting 2nd in September and it would be hard to do the practical assignments if heavily pregnant.

    I am 28 and OH is 36, he already has 2 children, 9 and 7 from his previous marriage and we have been together 2.5yrs and own a house together now.

    Reason for me posting now is to get some advice!

    I have been off the pill for over a year but am not trying for a baby, just wanted to clear out my body.

    Last few months my cycles have been 26 days apart, periods quite heavy but only lasting 4 days.

    Last Sunday I had a light bleed and it would have been day 26 so just expected it to carry on. Since then I have had a small amount of red blood and quite brown/black discharge on and off, not enough to fill one sanitary towel.

    Took a pregnancy test Weds PM and Thurs AM - both negative.

    I am really constipated and have been for last 2 weeks, had really sore nipples for a week but now no other symptoms.

    I have ordered some pregnancy tests off eBay but they won't get here till middle of next week and I am getting impatient.

    A large part of me thinks I am not pregnant but I am worrying why I am having "bleeding" like this when I never have before.

    Just needed to vent more I guess.... If I am pregnant I will be cool with it but even though I am not trying to get pregnant having had unprotected sex for the last year and no pregnancy worries me anyway....:o
    Now a SAHM trying to earn some spare pennies each month

    lilmissmup, it could be that you didn't ovulate last cycle, so the period is a bit funny. It is perfectly normal not to ovulate once or twice a year:)

    You can test again to be sure when the ones you ordered arrives.

    Welcome back QQ!

    I think I am 2 or 3dpo. I'll say 2dpo so that I don't test too early! That's just going on CM really - had lots of EWCM on Monday and Tuesday, dried up by Thursday and now boobs are swollen so I'm hoping I've ov'd!

    I'm on holiday from work for the first week of the 2ww which is great! Although I have a feeling this 2ww will drag so need to think of things to keep me busy in the second week. Ovary scan on Friday.

    ((hugs)) to all those in need. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend. I am mostly watching Olympics on tv! Off to a spa hotel tomorrow though, can't wait!
