Ok i so need to keep up with you all more!. Today should be my last day of AF with a bit of luck!. then in about a week its game on for a few days! lol.

since all you ladies have shared a bit about yourselves already let me share about about me.

I work part time at the moment i work in mental health and have been doing so for almost 5 years. Previous and in with that i worked in disability. Im hoping to be a SAHM and start my own little home buisness of homemade invitations and greeting cards etc etc.

So yes i love scrapbooking and all crafty things alike. I live in Australia and i live with my loving man Andy and my Daughter Brooke (11) and i have my step daughter Jess (10)who visits us every fortnight and will soon be comming to live with us at the end of the year.

I also love photography and love being outdoors travelling around my country and seeing new places. i enjoy camping and all that goes with it. We have a boat and so we love to get out on the water from time to time when the weather is nice and try our luck at fishing.

This is our first month of seriously TTC and Both Andy and i are very excited and look forward to creating a beautiful baby. Im so lucky to have such a supportive and loving man. Its nice when both are wanting the same thing and wanting to share every moment of that together.

Anyhow thats a quick run down of me and i enjoy reading this thread and catching up on the goss.

 

[CherylC3]

Aw no bother Mommyb we will be pg by the end of may

Sandy that's such a great job u hav... Id love to be good at making cards and stuff but I'm just not tht handy tht way... I used to work with a girl from melbourne she was so lovely she came to Scotland for 2-3 yrs to work.

Hopefully you get ur BFP soon I'm a cd6 today, so we will be in the 2ww wait together As of next week, are u using OPKs this cycle? Whats ur plans anything u will be doin different Round o??
Well ladies I hope we get some BFPs added to the name of this thread soon...xxxx

 

[mommyB]

Hey Sandy That's awesome you are so crafty! I love doing that kind of stuff too! I'm addicted to Pinterest at the moment, I'm always looking for a new DIY craft idea!

CD10 here and I did my first digi OPK this morning and I didn't get a smiley face, which I figured because I got my first one CD11 when I conceived my son. So I'll probably get it tomorrow, but I do feel the ovulation cramping and EWCM starting so those are good signs. I probably don't even need these tests, I literally have the same cycle every month! I kept track the four months off my pill leading up to this cycle and they all were identical! So we plan to BD to tonight and probably the next three days! Lots of we are going to be pooped after this

 

[mummy3ds]

Hiya,
Im suppose to be studying but thought Id pop in to see what was happening I think that my O is getting close as CP has changed and have that "wet" feeling I have also noticed a pain in my lower right side today so not sure if thats a sign :-/
Loving the signatures got my fx for us this month, I so want to be able to give a BFP to hubby to be on our wedding day
Right I best get back to the study, hope everyone has a good weekend and Ill be back on Monday xx

 

[shradha]

Well...i guess then if i dont get a positive result this month then i would surely take your advice and put one under mine...and see.........keeping fingers crossed....

mommyB and Kimsu- I too have curly hair.....sometimes its becomes very difficult to manage...... I cant leave my hair open in parties..it looked so fluffy...I always make a bun or braid my hair..

 

[CherylC3]

Hey ladies just back from a lovely overnight in Aviemore... Cd7 here bd last night and hubby wants us to do it everynight till sat will this work? And Is it better for him to leave it in a cpl of mins after we finish bd? Cos we did tht last night and nothing dribbled out? Sorry for all the detail...x

 

[mommyB]

Shrada, try the pillow you never know! Maybe it's the secret to a BFP

Hey Cheryl! Glad you had a great night!

CD11 here and still no smiley I thought for sure today! Hopefully tomorrow! And I think I am stressing hubby out a little. I'm trying to be relaxed but it's hard!

 

[CherylC3]

Aw you'll get it soon missy maybe tomoro... Try not to stress. Xxx

 

[mommyB]

I know its so much easier said than done, it's not fair Last night we even had a bit of an argument and didn't get to BD. But I am only CD11 and haven't had a positive OPK yet so were still good. He knows how important this is to me but he doesn't want to be stressed about it. Who knows.

 

[SandyLee79]

Morning Ladies.

Cheryl: Im not using and test kits or anything im just going by body signals and just following my cycle. OH and me have decided that we are not going to get all stressed up in the mix of it as well its our first time TTC together so lets enjoy the moment and see what happens. we are of course going to be very intimate especially from early next week right through. But neither of us are going to complain about that!
We are both very much connected in minds as well as contact and i think it makes it all the more special. We desperatly want this and we are not wanting to add any more stress than we have to.

MommyB: i have never heard of pinterest until you mentioned and i have had a quick look and WOW i think im going to like that ALOT. Im always admiring what our creative minds can do!. And scrapbooking/papercrafts have been a nice distraction to help put my mind on other things other than baby. As i found myself getting so caught up in this last month and really stressing out badly over nonsense.

 

[kimsu]

Aw mommyb I saw your siggy thank you! Cd11 today ladies, and I had gobs of ewcm( this is like the most I've ever had on a cycle) and cramps last night( felt like after cramps) I know I've gotten them before around ovulation time. So we BDd tonight (I wonder what DH would think about me talking bout us doing the nasty lol) and these past four cycles of ovd cd11-12 so I'm crossing my fingers even though DH and I didn't get much bd time this weekend. How about you ladies? What do you do to calm your obsession with tracking your cycles? To make the time go by faster?because for some reason this month is going by so slowwww.

 

[SandyLee79]

Hey Kimsu hope your good and well.
Yes i must admid im sure if i told Andy that i talk about our sex life im sure he would go the shade of a tomato and im glad he dosnt have a shell cause im sure he would crawl back into it and hide on me! hehehe.

Last month i has so very obsessed with all of this and it came as quite an unplanned suprise when i started to develop symptoms and ruled everything out and then thought perhaps i was pregnant. Then i kept getting negatives and thinking omg what is wrong with me!. Especially since OH and me was very happily suprised that we could very well be having a baby. and it devestated us when we didnt get the results we was hoping for. So then we got very serious talking about it all and discussing if we really wanted to truly TTC and we both felt exactly the same way and i guess i got all caught up in the excitement and omg it was the longest couple of weeks for a very long time!.

I was given some awsome advice and advice i know we all know too well and know we should be able to do but YES easier said than done!. I found i needed to focus again on other things than TTC. start enjoying the things i have loved doing. Or perhaps in your case find something new that you can perhaps develop an interest for.

Amongst all the worry last month i decided thats it i need to get out of this city i need to just get away from everything for a while ( i have been on a bit of a personal rollercoaster over the last few months) nothing serious but it certainly hasnt helped the stress of things. So i decided thats it i need to get away so we are now planning a little holiday away in July for a week.

And it really helped me take my mind of things and be excited about going away and catching up with friends etc. And i know money is tight and we all just cant decide to pack up and go on holiday but perhaps organise a nice quiet weekend away or something like that.

And you know what it has really relaxed me and has made me feel even more closer to OH than ever before but we are great together and communicate very very well. Im such a lucky lady to have found such an amazing man i truly am blessed. I thank god every day for Andy comming into my life. He truly is an amazing guy.

SORRY got all mushy again!. today is quite an emotional day today no apparent reason for it. Just one of those days where you just feel so loved and so in love. and its been this way from the day we met. I mean sure we havent agreed on everything and we have our little moments but they are nothing at the end of the day. He is very committed to me and isnt afraid of showing his sensitive side which i find very VERY attractive in such a strong hard working man.

Ok thats it gonna be quite now!! hahaha. Oh im glad we can share our feelings so openly. god i wouldnt be able to share this kind of thing to my family! hahaha

 

[shradha]

CherylC3 and mommyB ......wish and pray that may is your month..... all he best

mommyB - I know the feeling....but by stressing you are making things worse....stress can delay things.......so just relax you will ovulate soon..... thanx for the advice ....I ll try it soon...
