Cyber Cycle Sisters !! xx

if you ov'd on cd8 then cd 22 would be the day to test - fxd!!!

hx
 
Lou, it does sound promising, you could test from tomorrow, but it's still early, helen's right, cd22 would be good, depends if you want to test early or not? i got my bfp on 9dpo. good luck, and keep us posted xx
 
Lou it is pretty early to be getting symptoms... but it also sounds fairly promising. I think i conceived Euan on CD8 as well. I would wait a few more days and then take a test. I was 10dpo when I got my first BFP this time around but it was very very faint.. did another one about 13dpo and there was no mistaking the line.

Good luck.
 
Thanks ladies, I think I'll wait until wednesday, so cd24 to test, if I don't come on before. I'm annoyed at myself for even thinking it a possibility as it just seems too early to me, and have not got hopes up in months! This cycle has confused me from the start as af was only 3 days, and pretty light. I'll keep you updated. Thanks again xx
 
Hi Lou, I think i'd go for Tuesday too. Your sore boobs and sick feeling sure sound positive, I really hope its your bfp, fx'd for you x

What is your scan for on Weds?

M2A, I love the name Lola, I may have to add that to my girl list .. !
 
Fx'ed for you lou :thumbup: sounds promising :)

Thanks Kanga, i just think it's really pretty iykwim? lol. :flow:

Hope all you ladies are having a nice weekend, just heading out for lunch at a lovely wee resturant called the boathouse :) with mum and dad, and some other family, OH cant make it :( dont know how im going to avoid eating the homemade mayo :haha:. I have mayo with everything but only shop bought so its pasturized and ive got a feeling peole will ask why im not eating it lol x
 
Restaurants and new eating habits to tend to bring up questions .. have fun at the restaurant.

You all sound so sorted out for names... we struggled last time especially with a boys name...Euan was nameless for 5 days. This time around we are clueless esp if another boy pops out.. there are lots of names I like but DH hates everything he has an anecdote for every name I ever mention and tbh he caved after 5 days and wrote Euan on the birth certificate but he still does not really like it. The trouble now I suppose is I would like another Scottish name and you try to fit one with Euan..

I love Lola too for a girl and that was in my girl list last time but Steven had some kinda reason why he hated it... something about that transgender song. Anyway men!!

He does like one name for a boy and his favourite is Olivia for a girl.. which I am coming round too. His name for a boy and it was his name last time is BOO... yes you read correctly he just thinks its the best name EVER...

Anyway hope your having a good Sunday. About to skype with parents then will head out for a wee while and then we are going out tonight for dinner, I have a friend coming round to put Euan to bed and stuff so we can celebrate our anniversary. Yay! A night out... and a school night too however will I cope in the morning.
 
Enjoy your night Jo!! we've just been out to order out pram - we decided on the m&p sola, scan in 8 days so can decide on the colour then!! we have our boys name already, Oliver, just the middle mame to decide on, and either Chloe Isabella or Poppy Grace for a girl. i'm finding out the sex but oh doesn't want to know!! going to be so hard keeping a secret!!! xx
 
Happy anniversary Jo!! :)

Have a nice tea M2A - take some mayonaise in your handbag :haha:

V Exciting Em!!! :)

Fxd for testing day Lou :)

rachel - it's a scan to look at my ovaries. Thanks, how's your cycle going? X
 
Happy anniversary Jo!

i think i asked an asprin q a while back, does anyone know the dose for the 'baby asprin' please x
 
75mg - don't ask for baby aspirin tho - they now refer to it as low dose aspirin

hx
 
fab, thanks, and apologies if you've already told me one. Memory like a sieve ...
 
:flower:g'day sisters!

Glad to hear all the positive stuff happening here! I cautiously snuck back onto B&B after a long break. I saw Kanga around the traps and she suggested I come say hi so.....HI:happydance:

kinda embarrased about my quick and silent departure but I kinda had an emotional TTC crash and had to turn it all off. I received a really crap result from an AMH test and a lousy harsh verbal explaination that made me freak out. I instantly stopped acupuncture, naturopath, tests, specialists appointments, etc. I guess I had been charging at it all too hard. Every other day I was driving to some appointment or other, or else I was on-line looking up TTC stuff or on B&B. Then it was a fight with my insurance company for coverage and more e-mails and phone calls. I started to spin out of control:wacko: Anyhoo...please forgive me for buzzing off with no good-bye's.

I am only now carefully finding my way back to TTC with a wee bit of hope left in the bank. This time I will need to be careful and find a path that's a bit more balanced for me. Can everyone submit a wee post (line or two) of their journey/ process as catch up for me? I've been reading back but...

love the names Lola, Poppy, Oliver. my fav is Lilah. Goddess, Boo is super cool but i share your aprehension. Super cute when he's little and really cool once he's hit 20's but...he might be a little cranky about it during the school years. Maybe not. It is cool.
 
Hi groovygirl :hi:

Hope your TTC journey doesnt take to long hun :hugs:

Well im leaving at 10.15 for scan......absoutly crapping myself :(......trying to keep busy, but ive been up all night , not slept a wink. Will update when i get home .

Hope all you ladies are ok :hugs: x
 
Groovy - good to see you, sounds like you've had a horrible time but sounds like you're coming out the other side. I was worried when you went awol!! We're all here for you xx


Ladies - am going to read back through all I've missed over weekend but just wanted to update after my scan quickly. After scan on friday had a manic day at work so could only lie on sofa all night with legs up and then was off to Kent for weekend for a wedding first thing sat. Got back late last night. (NB sober wedding = utter pants).

So went for scan on friday - horrid horrid sonographer, she didn't smile once, I found her totally unreassuring. She hardly said a word throughout just took all her pics and took ages - seriously ages looking at the heart - I started crying as I thought there must be something wrong, in the end she said that will do. Then OH asked for a pic and she gave us a really rubbish one. I asked if all was ok and she said ' as far as I could tell'.

OH said that if something was wrong she would have told us and we just have to relax as she was probably concentrating on her job. I would have just liked her to say one positive thing during it. The report is different to all others. No measurements, just graphs which I don' understand. I'll ask my GP when I go in couple weeks.

Oh and she wouldn't do my internal cervical scan until I insisted and made her read my notes saying it was to be done. Then she did it really painfully. Horrid.

Anyway she said LO was 70% a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bottom was right under my belly button apparently so she couldn't get clear view but she thought girl. WAs shocked as so thought boy. Very excited about my little princess though but not sure whether 70% means I should buy pink or stick with neutral!!

So Dee - hairy tummy doesn't necessarily mean Boy!!!! Really weird cos even though my tum is hairy my legs and underarm hair is hardly growing at all.

Anyway I'm trying to relax about it. I'm sure if she'd seen something wrong she'd have said. Just something positive would have been good. She told me not to ask any questions as she had to concentrate!!!

Anyway enough of me - going to have a read back and catch up xxxxxxxxxxx
 
Have I missed a post from Lucy about her scan? I'm really hoping everything was ok but can't find anything from her quickly scanning this morrning.

Welcome back Groovy! Sorry to hear you've been having a crappy time. No need to feel embarassed about anything, we're all still here!

How funny, we all seem to be favouring similar names. You may remember we've chosen Olivia (Livi) for our little girl. We've even bought a pretty little name plaque for her door so it's official now! So, we've got Oliver, Olly, Olivia and Lola - all very good choices if you ask me!

AFM - Had a busy weekend with my sister, her husband and two puppies coming to stay. We went to our first NCT nearly new sale on Saturday morning. It was absolutely brilliant! We bought so much stuff..... baby bath, top and tail bowl, baby carrier, boxed Tommeee Tippee bottles, masculine style changing bag for OH, cosytoes for Maxi Cosi car seat, loads of baby clothes, Next maternity jeans, maternity pjs and nighties for me (all immaculate) for only £50!

Right, I'm off to make a bacon sarnie!

You posted just as I was worrying about you! So glad everything seems ok but what a miserable sonographer! For goodness sake, it's one of the most nerve wracking and exciting scans you can have and it sounds like she completely down played it. Try not to worry, from what I've heard, they tell you straight away if they see anything that concerns them. We were lucky with the gender as we'd had a 70% girl prediction at 18 weeks and then they were over 90% sure by our 20 week scan.
 
Hi groovygirl :hi:

Hope your TTC journey doesnt take to long hun :hugs:

Well im leaving at 10.15 for scan......absoutly crapping myself :(......trying to keep busy, but ive been up all night , not slept a wink. Will update when i get home .

Hope all you ladies are ok :hugs: x

Good luck this morning, thinking of you :hugs:
 
Lolly think we posted at same time - all ok with me except horrid sonographer. As far as we know LO is a ok. Just trying to relax about it now. Is weird as have been having scans every 2-3 weeks and now have a 19 weeks stretch of nothing!!

Are you doing the NCT classes? Must start quite soon?

Oh god I wish I had some bacon in.

Mummy 2 - good luck with your scan today. I am certain all will be fine. Keep us posted xxxxx

Lou - how are you not testing, symptoms sound GOOD. I'd have done several tests by now. You're a stronger woman than me. Got everything crossed for you.

HB - glad Oliver was ok at scan - its a worry about the amniotic fluid - just to reassure you, a good friend had the same and her doctors who weren't as good as yours by sound of things only prepared her for worst with stories of doom to the point where she is not going to be having any more children as pregnancy was so stressful - anyway perfect baby boy Max was born - and he was big 9 pounds, and that was all. Absolutely nothing wrong with him at all. I hope all is well at 24 week scan. Not too long to wait.

I'm starting yoga on wednesday too - took me ages to find a class, all were booked up, same with the NCT, am having o do one that I hav eto take a lot of time off work for as is only one with room which is a pain, I guess I left it late to book everything as didn't want to tempt fate.

Jo - congrats on anniversary. Hope you had a lovely evening with OH - I actually think Boo is a really cool, name, its different which I like. You could always call him it as a nickname whatever you actually call him!! I have no idea on girls names. Still I've got 18 weeks and 5 days to decided!!

Sounds like we could have several Oliver and Olivia cyber babies!! Lovely names. Love Lola and Chloe and Poppy too.

Hope I haven't missed anyone xxxx
