    congrats comp!

    I have just been on facebook and have a feeling a sneaky pregnancy is soon to be announced. My brothers fiancee has put a comment about lots of exciting things happening this year - they are getting married and several people have commented about her having a baby....

    They have already jumped ahead in the queue for weddings, will be gutted if they have jumped ahead in the baby queue too

    (I know that sounds horrid, which is why I am ranting on here. It may not even be that so may be over reacting about nothing)

    I feel the same we had several people announce pregnancies in last few months and feels like they have "jumped the queue" in front of us, worst bit is my SIL is now due this week (the 1st of several new arrivals in coming months) and whilst she is about to get an actual baby, we are still hoping to catch a glimpse of a BFP!

    I hate feeling this way and I am happy for her and hubbys brother, but it feels unfair at same time x

    Right, I'm going to start a new thread. What's the best way to start a new thread? Keep all those on here that we hear from (no matter how regularly) and take off those that have not posted on this thread?

    Congratulations COMP, happy and healthy nine months for you :) so so pleased for you, you've been waiting aaaaaages! Lol

    If there's one thing I hate about the 2ww it's that I can think of nothing but food. Particularly at the minute those new egg and spoon things from Cadbury. Mmmmm

    Bit fricking sick of the old house now, its full of !!!!! Every time I think we're getting somewhere I turn round and there's another pile of nonsense, why do we have so much nonsense stuff! X x

    8lbs lost in a month. So proud of myself. Finding it pretty easy to be honest. Thank you for all the good advice. Think I may try Agnus castus next.

    I think that wold be a good idea becca. Thank you so much. You're a star x

    I think I'll ov tomorrow. Problem is, hubby says no more bd. managed cd 11, 13, 14 and 16. Think ov day will be 18 or 19. For the sake of my relationship, I'm not going to push for any more bd!! Hoping I might still be in with a chance anyway!

    It's going to be really frustrating but I think dh feels under too much pressure and maybe 2ww will be less stressful if I'm only in with a little chance?

    And as far as weight loss goes, I'm 4lb down in 4 weeks. Slowly does it!

    Ps. I'd like to be on new thread!
  • I'd like to be on the new thread too please. :)

    For the first time ever I put my legs up in the air after BD because I got (another) sodding positive OPK... Think OH was shocked by that, of all the crazy TTC things we've tried I think this was the one that made him think I'd finally gone crazy- fingers crossed it makes a difference-lol.

    He's now also made the switch in his head from fun Ding to BDing which at least means he's willing to BD when I tell him we have to (I'm pretty lucky in this regard thankfully)!... There's been no fun Ding lately though- wish these sodding OPK positives would go away so the fun can come back!... :(

    This TTC malarky is tough!
  • Well done on the weight loss ladies! :j

    I've lost 2lbs this week but official weigh day not until tomorrow so will update properly then.

    I've decided to start new thread tomorrow! I've had a PM suggesting we have 'house rules' on the first page so I wanted some suggestions from you ladies on what they need to be. I think we need to make it clear this is a TTC thread and not a pregnancy one but other than that....over to you ladies!!

    Don't worry I won't leave any of you out!!!

    Well I guess it could pretty much be a copy of the stuff on the first page we have at the moment - so people can see the abbreviations and other useful info.

    But perhaps some sort of line that says this thread is for people ttcing, if you wish to announce a pregnancy and you have never used this thread before, please use the less than 12 weeks pregnant thread, many thanks. Or something to that effect!? Plus no popping in to say stuff like 'hi I tried for 6 months and then just relaxed and it happened.' or other 'useful' info like that!

    Then the usual list of people names and links to their FF charts if they want to? When they started ttc etc - I always like to check that when someone gets a bfp!
