Oooh I'm having a really grumpy bitter day today.
Feeling really cross about the way my SIL is overreacting about *everything* because she's PG and wondering how I'd act in the same situation... and reminding myself that I don't have to think about it because I'm NOT! :mad:

Hiya - been lurking for a while, but thought I'd better join as there have been so many BFP's in January there will be none of you left!! Congrats to all!!
Came off the pill in August 2012, and been TTC since. Last couple of months have been NTNP as OH was made redundant but he's back working again now so I guess we are TTC again. I'm 39 (just) so expecting it to take a while but still v v v impatient! OH has 2 children with his ex-wife so (fingers crossed) all is OK with him.
CD13 for me, am not using anything at the mo to predict ovulation, but just downloaded pink pad & fertility friend to my phone. Friend also has a CBFM which she says she'll lend me for my next cycle.
Thought I'd just post as two things occurred to me at the weekend:
1. Have spent 20 years trying to PREVENT a BVP, isn't it funny that now I'm not trying to prevent that nothing is happening!!
2. If someone had told me 15 years ago that I'd be struggling to get a man to BD I'd have ROFL!!
SBDTA! (and that's from someone who is struggling massively with all the abbreviations but getting there!!)

Hi Chocgirl, I too am 39 and have a hubbie who has already 2. With his ex wife. As u sayit is so weird having been on pill for years and now wanting a child. Met my hubbie late and only got married last year so there is the reason..
Just back yesterday from a safari trip and nurse advised me before I went that I should wait until I have been off the malaria tablets for a month before we start to be sure.
She cheered me up by saying 39-45 is not at all uncommon now for first babies and given the hubbie has some already should be ok... But we will see eh as it's heartbreaking some of the problems us women have trying.
Anyhow, will be actively trying from 28th February so will be carrying on reading , picking up tips and generally just glued to these pages!

Aw Kel - sorry to hear that, hope he finds something else soon! My OH was made redundant twice in 2 years - it took him 6 months the first time to find something but only 2 months this time so perhaps things are picking up a bit economy wise - fingers crossed for you both!!0 -
Hiya to Yargo and thanks for the support - you seem to have a very nice nurse there! I haven't told the docs yet for fear of getting a pessimistic one!!0

big hugs kellykins, hope OH finds a job soon
good luck and welcome Yargo
Birdie big hugs. I too have given in to chocolate - it stops me POAS.
No pre-AF spotting so far so fingers crossed. Had a chat to OH about it and he says there is a reason it's called the 'miracle of life' and why it's so hard. I said get ready for crying if AF comes on Weds and he said he'd shut me in a room (he was joking). I guess OH's get upset too tho I seem more bothered than him.0 -
wow Abis congratulations to you both!!!!!
Nothing else really to say. except obviously another vote here for a bit of NIN.
Think we may have to take a month out this month. My OV will fall next next ish when I know I'm not going to be able to dtd due to personal problems, (not with people, but on going problems caused by my past job that are trying to F my life up forever). I'm sorry that I have been cryptic in the past about my problems, its just that I've never known how to say what the problem is without someone judging me. And I know every couple of weeks I say I've made the decision to go to the doctors and never do it.
Well the truth is that last year I was struggling with my job, I was getting paid min wage for about 10 hours a week, infact I was doing 40-50 but they said if I wanted paying I did the rest for free. We needed the money so much I did it. So I was working 7 days a week with no holidays ever (and I mean that literally). So my work suffered, I couldn't keep up. Last July they accused me of stealing a lot of money. I never stole a penny.. I am in court next week again, and it looks as though I am probably going to go to jail eventually, as very conveniently they have 'lost' the accounts books and paperwork so it looks as though a lot of money is missing. No one so far has listened to anything that I have said and the police ignored the evidence that proved I haven't taken anything.
The stress resulted in me having an overdose last year and a week in hospital, and now depression following it.
Well sorry guys I had to get it out of system. It is very unlikely the doctors will help me with this going on. I have lost everything and ttc was one part that kept my feet on the ground. So I think we may have to give up, as most likely I will be in prison later this year or with a criminal record. Please believe me I did nothing wrong.
I have no doubt this will soon be deleted which is fair enough.Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.0 -
Oh blimey vesper I'm so sorry to hear about all you are going through hon.
Surely they can't prosecute you unless they have solid evidence to do so??
Nothing is worth your life though hon, are you seeing anyone to help with your depression?Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,You don't even take him seriously,How am I going to get to heaven?,When I'm just balanced so precariously..0 -
Vesper - am really sorry to hear about everything you are going through. Will be thinking of you next week for the court hearing. Big ((hugs)) and really hope this isn't the end of your ttc journey, and that you can get some help for your depression.0
