Trying for a Baby Part 7

QQuaver

LegalBlonde, you did it!!!!:j:j:j
And on your first month too:cool:
You could've just PM'd me on Saturday:p

As for googling, don't do it so much, as you can get even more MS symptoms with that:p

When will you tell your mum? Will you be due sometime in June?
Have a great pregnancy!:wave:
nicki, I love 2ww, as for me, getting to ov is the most difficult hurdle:o
You can now relax having done everything you can:o
:rotfl: re flat cake:D Kids are fun aren't they?
Rebekah, it will be your turn soon:o

Vitamin B100-complex is good for progesterone deficiency:)
Tinkwings, Still keeping my fingers crossed for you and your dad (((hugs))).
Also, you are not out 'till the witch arrives:o
colli, glad Vit Bs seems to be working:)
Hope you caught the eggy too, you did in my dream:D
Divorcingjack, I love that cake! It's beautiful:happyhear
And I agree about not butchering the dress:o It's so beautiful.
I haven't done anything to my dress, it's at my parents. I'd love to wear it again, but I'd need to lose 4 more pounds for that:D
You two looks absolutely in love
I can picture a very cute baby:)
MrsRobertson, if you test early, then the BFN could be wrong Never use digi until you get a faint line, as the words 'Not Pregnant' is heartbreaking (((hugs))).
Cheaper ones (store brand) are the most sensitive. Superdrug ones are considered the best. It catches pg hormones earlier than digi:cool:
BB1984, your cramps could be ov cramps, hope you ov soon:o
Flee, (((hugs))) for painful AF:(

Weird AF? How weird? Is it mega heavy? It could have been a chemical:(
Bigzee, :wave: How are you?
Lily, good luck testing:) I'd test first thing tomorrow morning though, as the pee is most concentrated.

Nikki I am on my 18th cycle since coming off the pill last July. July 2010. I am lucky my phase is not short but normal. Is is the spotting every single day from 7 before my period is due that concerns me and is not normal for me. I never had this prepill and have has this almost every cycle for the past 18 months. Thank you for you views though. I will research more.

Sorry. I thought I had read that this was just your third cycle.

If you have been having this for 18 months then I'd be more inclined to suggest asking your GP for a gynae referral. You definitely have a long enough track record to justify that.

It might be that if your natural progesterones are low, that you need to take a supplement in the early stages of pregnancy to help avoid an early miscarriage. I used cyclogest pessaries after my first IUI cycle for that reason. There is nothing you can take naturally which helps the body to produce progesterone. The stuff which some naturopaths recommend like yams contain a chemical which has a similar structure to natural progesterone but all the research has shown that they make no difference to the amount of actual progesterone occuring in the body whether eaten in spades or rubbed in.

It's ok. Simple mistake I would make too! I'm just concerned that they might be not bothered as I have only been trying for 4 months now. And they say to wait for 12 monhs. I don't like going to the gp unless i'm dying lol. I feel they never take you serious enough! I think it's low a bit but nothing drastic. I just worry about hte spotting and if it is low then my uterus might not be receptive to any eggy wanting to nest in. Or it maybe nothing but I can't help wondering.

Is anyone else trying to conceive baby number one and absolutely terrified by the prospect of giving birth?

Rebekah, I did ask my fertility doctor if taking Vit B complex was OK, and he said OK as long as I don't over do it. It didn't make any difference to my LP though, as I always had approx 14 day LP. I took it for my PCOS. Something I read somewhere. Didn't do much there either:o

Me!!!

I think I'd like a caesarian:o I'd probably get it anyway because of my age. If not, then I was told from a reliable source that the pain all goes away as soon as you see your baby:cool:

sorry, forgot to say I had my smear last week and told the nurse about spotting and she said they recommend anyone with "abnormal bleeding" to talk to a dr about it. I've got an appointment next week, s0ds law it's coincided with the first month it doesn't happen :rotfl:

I think a lot of people treat anything gynae related together as part and parcel of TTC and assume the dr won't be interested unless you've been trying for a year, I know I did. Stuff "down there" also needs checking out for other reasons too though

Def agree with Nicki about being careful what you take though. There's a lot of advice out there and it's difficult to know what's accurate and what's right for you. I read some other ttc forums and it's difficult not to get dragged into trying this and that if you have been trying for a while. There is always someone who started taking something or other then got their BFP and it's sooooo tempting to try, especially if a dr is just telling you to relax, take folic acid and bd every other day but in reality for the majority of people this is all it takes x

I agree, though I'm guilty to taking Pregnacare, Royal Jelly, Soy Iso and Chinese herbal tea:rotfl:
