Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

[Newbie32]

I found out yesterday that a girl at work is pregnant again. She had her first the same time I had mine. She's also a bit of an ogre. Without thinking I just blurted out "What? She's pregnant? How is that fair!". Ah, whoops. I should just THINK these things not verbalise them! So yeah, I really totally do get it.

hahahahahah!!!!!

I was like that when i realised there was not one, not two, but three women suddenly pregnant at my office, all would have fallen around the times we've been trying and i was very much the same, except thinking with my bitch hat on 'you're not even as nice as me, why do you deserve a baby' bahahahahaah

Thanks Number2 on the whole sperm issue - i was thinking it wasnt overly selfish of me to want to experience that!! Nice to know im not alone xx

Sounds like AF - bummer, Pammy.

Wish I had a hard belly at any stage of the cycle. If we were charting my belly, it would always be charted as "Soft and flabby"

I agree with you newbie that it doesn't seem fair for DH to not go down the donor line, but at the same time I really understand his point. Put it the other way round, if it was a problem with eggs and he was the one who really wanted a baby and he suggested using a female egg donor (I know it happens a lot) but it would take a while for me to accept that my hubby was going to have a baby with another woman just so it's 'his' biological child! Does that make sense? I know I'd really struggle, and we all know men have ego issues especially when it comes to 'manhood' so it would be hard for him to understand where you're coming from! We have friends who can't have their own child, male factor issues and he just couldn't get over it either so they're going down the embryo donation route, much harder process but it was the only way to make it 'fair' even though she's still hoping to carry the baby herself! It's all so complicated, no wonder counseling comes as part of the package!

HAHAHAHAHA! Hilarious #2! It's funny post baby when everything wobbles, you never get that toned tummy back, even if you're super fit it still has that post-baby wobble & stretched wrinkly skin to it!

So are you actively trying for a baby or NTNP Pammy? Sorry if I'm being dumb...just a little confused! Surely he can't not want a baby but also not want to use protection? He either wants one or he doesn't, or does he genuinely not care either way?

See how you go pammy! There's a very slight chance it could be implantation bleeding, but really not likely considering the temp drop & blood...it all points to AF unfortunately. As far as other symptoms go, again don't worry about them too much! Use the primary symptoms and stick to them!

He said go with the flow. I gave him the option of me on the pill. he doesn't want me on artifical hormones. I think he is a little scared but is fully aware of the consequences of no protection. I want to actively try but he wants to go with the flow. so half / half.

Fair enough, yeah I agree the pill isn't good for you so I get his point with that!
Well I hope it happens for you & he's cool with it! I'm sure he would be, but for me personally I don't think I'd ever go into it if my DH wasn't as keen as me!
I've seen too many times people have babies and then when they're up all night with a screaming baby and their partners say "you wanted the baby you deal with it!"

Goog morning ladies

I have read through but not going to comment on everything

Pammy- sorry about bfn Sounds to me like AF is on her way! Last month I had no signs that she was coming (which was weird) and she still came so maybe she is tricking you? .....

Nanna That is a bit selfish of hubby but I can see where he is coming from cause if it were the other way around I think I would be heartbroken too xx

woohoo - I havent had any children yet and mine is flabby too hahahahaha!! Trying to remidy that now! Hopefully doc can sort my pcos out and it will help me lose weight cause no matter what I seem to do, what I eat or how active I am I can't lose it! haha

Squigley - Temp a little higher this morning but no other signs of AF .. This is sooooo weird haha!! And YES lets run away ... Don't tell DH's they can have each other hehehehe

Lucy - Sorry to hear about all the announcments, I know how you feel it is horrible but you will get there very soon x

Hello to those I have missed xx

 

[Newbie32]

Oh pammy....so sorry hun xx that does sound like AF...normally if its implantation bleeding it would only be light pink or brown blood, and they say as soon as the bleeding you see becomes bright red its generally AF...

Thanks for the input girls...I can kinda see how it could be 'awkward' to need a sperm donor, and i can imagine it being pretty hard to deal with shooting blanks full stop i guess...i guess on the up side its not that common for guys to shoot blanks without there being some kind of medical trauma etc etc and as he hasnt even been tested yet it could be all worry about nothing....i just know id find it really hard to miss out on the whole being pregnant thing etc - so hopefully it never comes to that!!!!

PS...i exercise like a FREAK as you all know and i dont have a hard flat stomach!!! I personally think they are a myth or only belong to ladies who are actually just programmed robots.

BAHAHAHAHA

Sweet Rosie cheeks - I can see youuuuuuuuuuuuuu how are you lovely!

And Maddy too!!!

 

[Newbie32]

PS laineypop i wish i could figure out whats going on with your chart and o this month....tres confusing.... xxx

 

[Rosie_PA]

Afternoon Hope everyone is having a great day!

Newbie good job having those "what if" talks with DH. They can be tough discussions to have when TTC, can't they?

Pammy good luck with the testing on the weekend. Oops..while I was typing you just posted AF arrived. Bloody witch. She's now circling over my head, I'm expecting her to land on Saturday

AFM I just got the info-pack from the FS. I have a stack of forms to fill out & return before my appointment. Seriously it's worse than a job interview! At least they included a price-list so I can rejig the budget: $180 for a basic appointment and the Medicare rebate is $68. And that's the most basic appointment, it goes up from there

Thanks Maddy - i think you inspired me to!!! And yes -tough, and somewhat uncomfortable (at least for my dh it was!) but definitely better out in the open!

WIsh i could take to that with my cane and send her flying to the moon or some other uninhabited area for a long time!

And Pammy - just remember this could be the first day of your pregnancy hun xxx
