    Hi ladies,

    Was just wondering if I can join you all? This will be our first month ttc with baby number 2, we already have a ds who is 5. Feels like a lifetime ago that I was last pregnant. :eek:

    Do I need to add myself to the ttc list?

    Good luck to all and congratulation to any newly pregnat ladies!

    I also find it really hard when AF starts. It did this morning, one day late. It gets harder to deal with every month. I can't imagine how much harder it would be if I tested early, got a BFP only to find that AF then started... I've heard of this happening and I think I'd find that even more difficult to cope with.

    I can totally relate to that. Every month that passes with no BFP makes me feel like my biological clock has just struck another hour. Apologies if this sounds really negative. I really need some good news! Just gonna keep on tryin' :p

    Hi All,

    Many congrats Supergirl!

    Quick update on me:

    CD9 & I'm gonna start OV testing tonight. The clinic says start on CD10, but I have a 'feeling' that I want to start tonight, especially as I either missed it or it didn't happen last month (usually it's around CDS15, or it was before the ectopic).

    I'm also gonna 'bite the bullet' and buy the expensive Clearblue test kits. My clinic recommends 'Clearplan', but I can't find any called that.
    I usually use the cheapies, and I know it'll cost a darn fortune this month, as I have to test twice a day, but I am feeling a bit superstitious about it - when I got my BFP last year it was with a Clearblue digital PG test kit - I'd used the cheapie PG strips the two days before and nothing showed up. So although the last 2 beanies went and nested in the wrong place, I have a bit of affection for Clearblue digital!

    I'm feeling really tired & emotional at the moment - even typing this is putting tears in my eyes. If all had gone well then I'd be finishing work next week ready for the litll'un(s) to arrive, but here I am, back at square 1 again...

    Dust'n'glue,

    FE

    Hi and welcome to the thread!

    No official list here, I think that would be far too depressing for some of us watching the months tick by....

    Good luck ttcing!
    Am not witty enough to put something cool and informative here:o :o

    Hi Sparkle, welcome!
    Yep Shelly, I am with you too on that. I did the test on the first month on TTC, but then I was like, er, why am I doing this, my AF isn't due yet?!! So gave up after then. I think we all get a bit over excited and wanna know asap

    Great News Supergirl
    Enjoy the next 9 months (although they'll probably seem like the longest 9m of your entire life ! )

    Got another appointment at the fertility clinic on Monday to discuss our next move,which will probably be icsi or iui,although the iui will probably be out due to OH's sperm count.will also push to get a referral to an endocrine specialist for OH 'cos his testosterone levels are only 'base line' normal and there seems to be alot of info about suggesting a link between the 2.

    Feeling a bit fed up as everything seems to be going so slowly,except my biological clock,which seems to be ticking faster by the minute ! and i don't feel as if we have the time to 'sit about waiting' for appointments,tests etc.

    Morning all.

    Im now on the 2nd week of having perma-nips and its getting quite embarrasing at work (they are pierced too to make it bl**dy worse!)

    I have the strongest urge to take a test today but i know it will probably be -ve but its just one of those feelings. Maybe im over hyping!

    Im on CD74, i think, but who knows with my medical palava going on at the minute.

    Got a gynae consultants appt. in a fortnight so im really optimistic about that to get some proper treatment for what im going through. Treatment = getting back to normal!

    Also discussed with my GP yesterday some of those period stopping hormone tablets. My holiday is in Sept. and the closer i get to the holiday the sicker i feel praying i get AF before i go away as id rather cancel my hols than come on while im away. I suffer really bad (fist/hand sized clots, massive blood loss, fainting, agonising cramps etc) with them and cant be doing with that on holiday. In england i can cope as i know i can get to a GP / boots for supplies.

    Without going back through the whole thread, did someone mention asda do cheapy PG tests? I have an asda living store near me that has a big baby dept. but i dont know if they would sell pg tests in with the baby things? Who knows.
