    Sorry to hear about your grandad and stressy rubbish day abis sending you huge virtual hugs x

    Hugs to you becca as well and a huge thank you for updating the lists x

    Hope everything goes well with the doctors vic x

    Cider tasting sounds awesome angeltreats what a lovely idea! I agree it's not about how much you spend we don't go mad with presents either. It's mainly about being together stuffing our faces and keeping up our Xmas tradition of watching die hard and die hard 2.
  • angeltreats - cider tasting sounds fun. Hope you both enjoy it

    Abis - so sorry to hear about your Grandad. Hugs x

    Becca - thanks for doing the lists. I wish I could be updated but still spotting on and off here. So frustrating. If AF gets me full flow tomorrow then that will be a 29 day cycle, not had a cycle that long in ages. Typical body teasing me! I want to get AF over and done with so that I'm not on over Xmas and I can crack on with the next month of ttc!

    Just wanted to let off a bit of steam. First month of trying and I can't get my oh to bd. I've been away 2 nights and its the first I've seen him. Should be ov Friday and really wanted to bd tonight & tomorrow. He has informed me he is on his works night out tomorrow Which means he will be too drunk. It's frustrating. And I'm now in the other room as he don't know what he has done to upset me.

    Grrr.....


    Sorry x

    if he's anything like my hubby maybe he's just a little nervous deep down. Even though he wants children as much as me after 13 years of trying not to get pg he struggled to get used to the fact that we were off contraception and trying. In our first cycle we only bd twice.

    I think men can sometimes be a bit more sensitive than we realise but even though I understand your frustration your doing the right thing venting here rather than at him. Given a little time I'm sure he'll be more helpful x

    Well I think the spotting is over now, been clear for 2 days. Never had brown CM that didn't end in AF before :undecided

    Couldn't help myself and tested (12DPO) but it was negative.
  • Loads of hugs to loads of you xxx

    I'm CD1 today, 5 blooming days early (maybe my body is getting used to being off the pill although the first two cycles were on time) At least I don't have to explain why I'm not drinking over the hols and early is good so the worst is over and I don't start it on Christmas eve. New year, new try .....

  • Big big hugs thriftylass - wine or chocolate or maybe one of these since its almost Christmas -[IMG][/img]sparklyreindeer_zpsb66d82c4.jpg

    Abis - I'm so so sorry to hear about your Grandad, thinking of you and your family. Glad you've go some time off now though, I'm wishing for a Christmas baby for you lovely.

    Atton, sorry to hear you're taking a step back but I think a fair few of us have been there and it does help to get some perspective.

    Becca - thanks so much for doing the lists, sorry for having such a tough time - sending you massive internet hugs. I don't think I ever realised how hard this journey would be but I still think that it'll be worth it when we finally get to hold our babies and we'll know how truly precious they are.

    I'm waiting for my first results from the molar pregnancy unit and I'm totally terrified. Made chocolate coffee beans for OH's birthday today and I sneaked a few so I'm all caffined up which isn't helping!

    Hi ladies I've started lurking on here and had to post because that sparkly reindeer reminded me of when I was on here at the same time last year.

    Unfortunately ill be joining you again although not sure exactly when yet. We went for our 12 week scan to be told the baby had died at 8 weeks. So I am probably going to the hospital tomorrow to have the procedure done to remove it.

    After being on this board before for what felt like an eternity I have to say I do feel relieved to know I can get pregnant. So we will be trying again as soon as this awful ordeal is done although I don't think I will ever actually be 'over it'.

    I hope all the ones of you testing this week get an early Christmas present good luck lemonmelon too xx
