Aussies trying to get duffered aged 20+ !!!

Pammy, if it's not darker than the control line, it's not positive. It's common for there to be colour, but keep testing until its darker than the control. I thought it would be hard to tell, but the day I got mine, it was really obvious.

I fear I am not ovulating at all... i will be charting for 2 more months and if no BFP I will get my progesterone checked. I think it is because I am a fuller figured lady.

So am I love. I'm sure you are fine, but hopefully a quick check can put your mind at ease xo
 
yeah, it would be hard work, but will be happy if whatever and however many we have are healthy!!!! But one girl is prefered, but timing wise i think a boy is more likely, but dont tell OH :haha:
done the dishes, laundry, lawns, made the bed, had a yummy chicken wrap for lunch, showered, now headed to the dog park!!! Then, i'll bet a nap is in order!!! haha
Hope everyone is having a fabulous monday/ sunday for rosie!!!

:hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs::hugs:

You know what - when the baby arrives you really won't care if it's a boy or a girl. I never believed that would really be true, but it is. I so desperately wanted a girl - and I had a boy. I actually cried a little when I found out it was going to be a boy, I admit (though not many admit it, it's more common than you'd suspect!). However I am SOOOOO glad I have my gorgeous little man! I am so lucky, he is just amazing.

I agree with you number2. I desperately wanted a boy- and I had a girl. I too cried a little when I found out I was having a girl. Howevr I am sooo glad to have my little girl now. I am so lucky she is a health little person. But know we are trying for our little Man.

I'm hoping for another boy! Can't believe that because I always wanted a little girl. But if I can have another one like my Harrison - well, he is just perfect. No, he really is. :)
However, now that I know that you really do just love them, no matter what, it really doesn't matter if it's a girl as I'm sure the same thing would happen.
So glad to hear I'm not alone in that initial reaction x
Now all I need do is worry that how on EARTH could I ever love another little human anywhere near as much as I love my Harrison. I can't understand how that could even be possible. I'm told by mums of more than 1 that it all works out just fine too! :)

Yeah Audrina was a perfect little baby I was every lucky from day one she eat, pooed and slept from 12 middnight to around 7am. I am hoping the second will be the same.
 
Hi lovely ladies! I have finally updated the first page (including emoticons)... if I have made errors (likely :)) please let me know!

Lucy you are soo clever! I will definitely be a customer :)

2mums - I can't wait until tomorrow to get your results!!!

Leaving work now to head home, tidy up a little as I have some ladies coming over for dessert - will jump on again hopefully before they come - and then straight to bed once they leave so I can wake up tomorrow and check my temp! (and stalk everyone elses charts!)

2woohoo I can't wait to see your temp tomorrow and the next day - hopefully FF will wack those cross hairs on early so we can all stop wondering what is going on there!

Chat more later on! xx
 
:jo: never did get that nap, i dare say it will be an early night for me!

I know no matter what we have we'll be thrilled, to try and try for so long and have it finally work, how could you not love the little person(s).
We both first wanted a girl, then i really wanted a boy, and now i jsut want a healthy baby, dont even care about the sex, we have a chance for a 2nd one later :haha: I bet i'll cry at every stage, i just cried at the voice, and got teary at the olympics, again!!

as for twins, identical are when one egg splits, fraternal are when you release more than one egg! identical are more traced through families, but releasing more than one egg can also be genetic, but also occurs in a higher percentage of woman after 35 yrs of age. i too wondered about a single, then trying for number two and getting twins, ahhhh!! hahahahaha

edit- not totally correct re identical/fraternal genetics, not going to correct myself, but Mum2Q did below :hugs:

Woohoo!

Cannot wait to see your chart tomorrow angel!

Love the update :-)

I think :jo: will be getting an early one tonight also...sooner to bed, sooner it's morning!!

Ps, I'm Sasha (aka :jo: )
 
Pammy - I wouldn't be too concerned about no positive OPK - 2mums didn't ever get them and she is preggy now, so she obviously ovulates!

2 mums is right about the twins...except I'm pretty sure that fraternal are genetic and identical is more 'freak of nature' kind of thing and doesn't run in families. I haven't done a lot of looking into it, it's just what I've always thought...I may be wrong. Man I hope i'm right though, cos I don't want my egg to split as many times as my sisters did!!! hahah

:rofl: :rofl:

Hahahaha...I reckon! Simply cannot imagine three brand new bubbas all at once!!!!!
 
yeah, it was hectic...I moved in with her for 3 months as the 'live in nanny' they were on 3 hourly feeds & it took 1-1.5 hours to feed them all... then we had to do all the rest of the stuff - plus feed ourselves and also get some sleep somewhere. it would be physically impossible to do it on your own...even with 2 people in the early days...just too hard!

Lucy - WOW!!!! your bags & bedspreads are amazing! I thought they would be way more ameture than that, but that's definitely something I would pay money for! Looks great!
 
mum2q- i re-read what i wrote, you are totally correct, i got it backwards, identical are 'freak of nature' not genetic!!! thanks!! :hugs::hugs::hugs:

those of you that have been pregnant-- or those that know from others experience --- Omgoodness, i cannot get over the pain in my :holly: right now, i mean i've always been big, about dd, but this last week, i think ive gained a size at least, and the pain is nearly unbearable, so heavy, tender, sore, etc i need to have a bra on of sorts at all times, i nearly wore one in the shower they hurt soooo bad. Around the house at night, no bra, just walking i have to hold them so they dont hurt. Is this normal?? seems a little extreme to me (im only like 4 weeks!!!) (cant find an answer on google :haha:)
 
Thank you for the support ladies... i hope i can give Peter a freak by getting a bfp when we get back from our holidays.
 
Hi everyone! I'm selina by the way! There is so much to catch up on! Angel, so jealous of your temp dip, hoping that's it's implantation for you :thumbup:

Woke up this morning with my temp slightly up again but the most greasy awful face, washed it twice and still feels horrible. Wierd! Stupidly decided to poas and bfn but it's pretty early days! So emotional about everything, cried 3 times this weekend but don't know if that's because the big move is very close now. Felt absolutely freezing in bed last night and kept waking up suddenly but Dh said it wasn't cold. Maybe I'm just I'll :wacko:

Love this thread! X
 
Jayne, with those symptoms i'm not shocked you POAS, give it a few days watch the temp and POAS again!! Sounds promising! :flower::flower:
When do you move? :dance:
 
2mums - with the knowledge we share between us, we could rule the world!! hahaha Sorry to hear about your sore bbs! hopefully this doesn't last too long! From what I've read over the last 18 months, I think it's bad early on and goes on & off for the whole pregnancy, I think to start with is probably the worst as everything in there is getting ready to produce milk, once they've 'set up shop' they might settle down a bit for you! I know all through breast feeding that my sis had super sore boobs when she needed to get milk out!! some of the mummys in here might be able tos hed a bit of light on that one!

Jayne, I think you possibly have an implantation dip there too! I know it's not a big difference, but is doesn't have to be...it still went up the next day after it! (7dpo)

When do you move? :dance:

Thanks, I'm really hopeful! We move on 23rd so arrive on 25th! It was Wierd, yesterday we went to see dh's mum and dad. They suprised us with a new puppy and I fell in love. It was Wierd that the feeling seemed mutual and he couldn't leave me alone. Everyone commented on it, he smelt like a baby! Am I officially in coockoo land now? :blush:

sounds cute hope everything pans out for you.
 
thanks mum2q- i just never thought or expected it to be this bad :cry::cry::cry::cry:

i thought the same thing about Jayne, the dip, the timing could very well be implantation!!!

i can't stay out of the baby departments, although i try, so i just skirt them and look from afar, hahaha its sooo hard not to buy just everything!
 
animals know, they sense it early, dont know how early, but mine have obviously figured it out, i have at least one puppy on my lap at all times if not both, and the cat sleeps next to me at night, never done it before in 9 years, but the past 5 nights no fail she's been by my side!

Im so glad to hear that! Maybe I'm not going completely crazy! I'm so tired right now, haven't eaten since yesterday breakfast and no apetite. I dont think that is a sign because everybody seems to be starving when they get their bfp!? Literally can't keep my head up at my desk :sleep:
