    Hi Kiraooo (eek exciting, I won't say anything ;-) ). Hi Trixsie as well!

    Can I pleased be put down for CD1. First AF since miscarriage and although I am a teeny bit disappointed at least now i know where I am and my body is doing what it should be . Will be doing OPK's again this month.

    Had a lovely evening out last night for our first wedding anniversary and DD stayed at SIL's. Hope everyone else is having a nice weekend.
  • Evening all :)

    Still only one BFP this month! The universe is not being kind to us all this month :(

    I'm feeling really guilty this weekend, and feeling like a horrible mean friend! My friend is TTC #2. She had her implant out in March and told me last month she was upset as she still hadn't conceived and it was so easy the first time (number one required no planning!) but then went on to say they had been so tired that they had barely DTD since the implant was out, and when they had, it wasn't around ov time. I told her it can take a while sometimes (she doesn't know we're TTC). This weekend she tells me her period is 6 days late and she's got stomach pains, nausea and tiredness, but hasn't tested yet! Looking at how she was when she got her BFP with number one, I would be incredibly surprised if she wasn't this time! I am really pleased for them, but they are the sort of people who just seem to tell us about their plans and everything falls into place, giving them exactly what they desire. I've got a massive bout of the green eyed monster that they started TTC after us but still have their BFP first, and also the fact that I am so desperate for baby number one, and someone out their thought they deserved baby number two first!! I hate feeling this way but bleurgh :( All made worse by the fact that whilst I was out this weekend every other woman I passed seemed to be pregnant!

    I'm a horrible friend :( Sorry all for the rant. I need to pull myself out of this :cool:

    You aren't a horrible friend at all and you can't help the way you feel. My cousin is 12 weeks pregnant and got married in April and made me think why can't that be me!

    Took me 13 months with my DD and although i know it was worth the wait, it is still horrible doing the waiting.

    Thanks Wendz. I'm hoping everything works out quickly for you, when you are ready.
    I'm sitting down having what i hope will be my last Crabbies for a long time, probably ought not have it really, but i've been gagging for one for ages, and dont want to miss the chance! Lots of EWCM last 2 days, and Ov tests have started showing faint lines, and after 5 months of cycle tracking, i reckon the next 4 days are it! Fingers crossed.

    Hi ladies


    Sorry I have been missing from the thread for a bit and not updated - was away on holiday for just over a week with no internet, eeek!


    Fast forward to today, CD38, as my cycle is quite irregular I didn't want to test before today but I got my BFP! I know my stay here has been very short but wanted to say thanks for the lovely warm welcome and company and I wish every one of you all the luck in the world ttc. I am still in shock but absolutely delighted!


    Good luck everyone xxxx

    Well I'm finally here. I have only lurked on a few boards so a lot of you probably won't know me but after a lot of discussion with dh we are FINALLY ready to ttc no. 2 :j We have got a 3 year old little girl and feel that the time is right. Also she starts school next Sept so I am hoping to be either near the end of a pregnancy or have number 2 with us by then as I am going to have to give up work when (fingers crossed) the 2nd one arrives - not through choice unfortunately but for financial reasons.

    We had a difficult first pregnancy so we are both feeling quite apprehensive but I am hoping that things will be different this time. Having said that, due to a medical condition I have I already have a care plan in place if I am lucky enough to fall pregnant again.

    One issue that I seem to have this month is that my af is showing no signs of stopping :(. I have been regular as clockwork for the last 3.5 years (I didn't go back on the pill after our daughter was born) and it always lasted 5-6 days. I am now on day 6 and it is still as heavy as day 2. I am not sure whether to give it a couple of days to see if it calms down or to go to the GP. I am not worried as such, just keen to get started on ttc.

    Congratulations Sparkle!

    Hi Mrs Sippi, our little girl is 3 too. I am hoping it will work out well so i will be off when she starts school. Hope the AF stops, but I would go to doctor if not. Good luck with everything!

    Hi all

    Well, I'm in a similar situation to MrsSippi - I've joined and rejoined these threads so many times in the past couple of years but finally, I think I'm ready to TTC #2. DS starts school next September too so the timing is good.

    So. Currently 4DPO (please can you re-add me to the list), BD on OV date according to CB. Only managed it the once due to the heat and general tiredness but hoping to have caught it (we caught first time last time but I was 33 then - almost 37 now!)

    Good luck and baby dust to all xx
