  • welcome abfab !

    Just had a look back and I've been on and off this thread since TFAB2 :eek: and trying for quite some time before that :eek:

    cant believe i have been wanting another baby for all that time, made me even more determined to read my posts from back then and remind myself this isnt a whim/fad or empty nest syndrome :cool:


    watched super8 with hubby tonight, he loved it ! I would say its like a gory Goonies in style :)
    Bow Ties ARE cool :cool:

  • Hello, I haven't had a chance to catch up on the last couple of days but hugs to all that need them and big congratulations to Jen.

    I bought Superdrug pregnancy tests on the way home tonight with the plan to test in the morning however I think I have been beated to it as it looks like AF has started this evening :( So I would imagine that tomorrow will be CD1 for me.

    I know this is only month 1 of trying and that we are NTNP but after years of being warned it only takes once I suppose I had unrealistic hopes. I had been SS'ing like mad - I know I am going to get told off :)

    Sorry for being a bit down, onwards to next month............
  • :wave: definitelyblonde. Fingers crossed that AF misses you & you get to try those tests out xxx. I know you're ntnp but the first month definitely gives you a kick in the guts. Last month was 1st month that I knew that I'd ov'd & definitely dtd at the right time -and as much as you know in your head that it's not guaranteed you still think it is :(. So IF (I hope not) AF arrives, my (limited) advice is to have a list ready of the positives ie you're getting to know your cycle better/ you can have Christmas parties etc.
