I've got my anti-witch spray!

[firsttimer30]

Linz, I can tell you that if I were there I would have been running along with crying, dead or alive those things just freak me out. Spiders I'm not afraid of them as I have a black widow tattoo on my left hand, with a little funny not long after I got it I was sitting on the couch watching a scary movie and the way I hand my hand positioned and the light from the TV I seen it and nearly crapped myself..LOL!!!!

Well evil has arrived so I am out this round but looking forward to this one, I will be stalking and wishing all you ladies with loads of

Good morning everyone,

Well no witch! This is the best I have felt in days though so I dont know what it is but it feels goooood! I have been really uncomfortable altely with cramps, bloating, fatigue..today most if not all of my cramps are gone my stomach doesnt feel hard and bloated and I feel somewhat rested. So Im jsut thankful to be having a feel good day for a change. I am 15dpo....about 4 days late. I didnt test this morning and I dont plan on it. I think I have come to terms that the witch is coming so Ill just wait for her. I only have one test left and if I do cave I hope its not until Saturday.

Nats- you are not old! my husband is 34 and I dont think hes old!
Baby nurse- Welcome back! glad you found us! We would be happy if you stuck around!
Doodah- so sorry the witch got you...you must have grabbed the wrong spray

 

[linz143]

Welcome, baby nurse!

Nats, you are NOT old! You're only a few years older than me!

And apparently I must have used my witch spray rather than my ANTI-witch spray last night cause the big ugly woman was ready to greet me this morning.

I know they say 85% of couples will be pregnant after a year of trying but I will truly be shocked when it finally happens to me. I've spent the last 13 years being the most calculated bcp taker ever and using protection because the last thing I wanted was a baby before I was ready, and now when I want one, it's impossible! Oh well, rant over. On to cycle 8.

Babynurse, wish and linz, thank you i feel much better lol

Babynurse i'm not sure about the oracle of knowledge lol, i can offer my experience of parenthood, as much as my children are beautiful it's not always been good experiences!
In fact quite the opposite sometimes!

None the less anything i can help with i'd be glad to although i think u guy's seem to be helping me more! xx

Linz- I remember trying for my first for 9months and how frustrating it got...but when I got that BFP no matter how long I had waited I still completely freaked out that I was preggo..it was kind of like uhm...hello u have been trying for this for 9 months now...y are you surpised! haha u get "used" to the BFNs and all of a sudden there it is....BFP!


Im still waiting on the witch...ugh

 

[giraffes]

Evening all,

sorry to those who the witch attacked today.

Nats - you're not old, crikey! And you can definitely be the expert for us all

I loved the rat whispering story, I always find it funny how people react to dead animals - they are dead after all!!!

I totally understand what you mean about the birth control taking - even though my doctors had said I'd probably have problems conceiving I was completely paranoid about it before (clearly sex ed lessons worked a bit too well on me) and it's really surprised me how obsessed and upset I've become over BFNs. Hubby got all funny recently when my GP referred me to the FS as he reckoned we hadn't been trying for that long and we should just keep doing things naturally for a few years. I did not take that very well!!! But he's coming to the FS appointment with me, so hopefully that'll make him realise just how long a process this could be! I'm so glad I have you ladies to chat to, he's already beginning to think I've been kidnapped and replaced with a crazy obessive lady

 

[DooDah]

Hey girlies

So happy to see the faces from my thread over here! It was such a great decision to make it!

I'm sorry you're out Linz, for next cycle Hun

So first day of bc... uh. So hormonal. I had oh calling me shouting because apparently I'd said something nasty about him to his friend (which I hadn't), what is he? 5 years old?! Anyway I broke down in tears and went on a mad one saying how much I'm doing for him right now and how hard it is for him. Pretty embarrassing really. But he is working away and couldn't give me a hug.

Sorry for the rant I'm just feeling so rubbish. There were babies everywhere today and am sat watching 16 and pregnant thinking about how I'd have their kiddies. Crazy lady here lol!

Spraying my anti witch spray for you... Hoping I've got the right one this time xxx

awwwww doo dah! poor u, i've had days like that as well, and i so know what u mean about seeing babies everywhere! mines pregnant women though, every time i see one im like ahhhh i want one, my oh thinks i'm cooked lol comes to think of it i am a bit mental lol xxx hope ur hormones settle down and u feel better soon xx

 

[nats77]

i got a dilema ladies, i'm in two minds about ttc this month, obviously i really want to and i would love to be pregnant but................. if i dont get pregnant this month then not only have i got to deal with another bfn but i will also of not eaten any pate or lovely smelly cheese's or had a single drink all over christmas,now if i knew i was pregnant this wouldn't be a problem for me at all, but to miss out on all the things i like and then find out it was for nothing!!! would be a killer, what do u guy's think??? xx
Oh and i got all the family at mine this year all over christmas xx

 

[linz143]

I've always heard "drink till it's pink" which of course does not mean go to a club, knock back 8 or so drinks, while you stumble over a curb trying to hail a taxi only to get home and vomit until your hang over shows up the next morning.... you get the point.

One or two drinks should be fine! As for the cheeses and such, it's really just to make sure you don't get a batch that's infected with listeria, correct? Which how often does that really happen? How many pregnant women have eaten that kind of stuff before the government started saying not to? It's like when they freak out about salmonella but in truth, only 10% of fowl products are actually contaminated by it. Besides that you would be SO early in your pregnancy that it really couldn't harm a fetus.

So here's the plan (at least mine): Enjoy a glass of wine before and/or during dinner. Eat some cheese. Not the whole wheel. Everything in moderation until it's got two lines.

I'll be in the same position this month, too. If I go back to a 28 day cycle this month, I'll be about 12 dpo on Christmas. So I'll probably take a test in the morning, and if it's negative, I'll have that wine. If it's positive, I'll revel in the awesomeness of not being able to drink because it's for something even better than wine. Ya know what I mean?

 

[Haleytivet]

Totally agree with you Linz!! The witch got me this morning so we are gonna be about the same schedule together for Christmas. I'll prob test on christmas eve! ( Already obsessing about POAS ) lol

 

[nats77]

yeah your right, as long as i dont go 'stupid' it should be fine, yeah i think most of us r on the same cycle, i'll be due on the 28'th so christmas eve or day will still be to early for me to test, fxd girlies this could be our month! xx

 

[apple_20]

Did the test this pm held for three hours undeniable bfp. Thanks for all you girls support imin shock tbh

 

[tammym1974]

So now that we've got our witch defenses and we're just waiting around, let's get to know each other a little better? You know, like when you go to those work or school things where they ask you to briefly introduce yourself and then say one thing that no one in the room knows about you? It's silly but fun all the same. I'll go first since I'm the instigator.

I'm 30, married since May this year, ttc our first. I guess my one interesting fact would be that I'm deathly afraid of weddings. Not attending them as a guest but being the bride at my own. DH found that out the hard way when I started planning ours and 2 months later we ended up in Las Vegas, getting married with just our parents, my bro and sister in law, and my bff and her DH. It was so much less stress and I made it through without having a panic attack... though I did bawl through most of the ceremony!

Next!

Great thread!!! I'm glad I found it. I'm 37 ttc our first. And here's a little interesting fact about me.

I got married in Vegas last year. I too hate weddings, showers, crowds and all the fuss that goes along with it. Only four guests and me and hubby. Sooooo stress free.

 

[giraffes]

Congratulations Apple! A happy and healthy 9 months to you.

Doodah - hope your hormones settle down soon, I'm awful about seeing babies and pregnant ladies everywhere.

Linz - I think your attitude is very sensible and is definitely my plan for Christmas

Hubby just took me out for a romantic meal to say that it was ok and he still loved me despite my craziness

Gxxx

 

[tammym1974]

ok ladies here's a bit about me,

I'm 34 which feels really old compared to u guys! i'm like the grandma on this thread! I have 3 beautiful children, Tommy 10, Harriet 9 and Henry 9 months, I had 3 miscarriages in between Harriet and Henry and 1 missed miscarriage since Henry, My oh is my best friend, my soul mate and the love of my life, we desperately want one more baby to add to our wonderful family, I guess that makes me kind of greedy but i just love being a mum!
An interesting fact about me hmmmm let me think????? well i can't honestly think of anything interesting, I'm terrified of the dentist like a real phobia and have to be unconcious to have anything done! pathetic maybe but not interesting sorry ladies

So hope ur ok with this old grandma being a part of this thread??

If your a grandma, I must be a great grandma, I'm 37. lol.

 

[nats77]

oops sorry, anyway the other girls said i'm not old so nor r u x

 

[linz143]

Congrats Apple!!! Feel free to come back and stalk us anytime!

Welcome Tammy! Isn't Vegas a great stress free way to do a wedding? Did you guys do one of the chapels or a casino? DH and I got married at the Luxor (the pyramid one).

Awww Giraffes, that was nice of hubby! Isn't that why we married them to begin with? Cause even though we're crazy they still love us?

Looking forward to December!

 

[nats77]

Awwww giraffes that sooo sweet, my oh has gone to get me a kfc! there great aren't they x

 

[tammym1974]

oops sorry, anyway the other girls said i'm not old so nor r u x

LOL, No worries! I know we're not old. I just wish I hadn't waited so long to try. All we can do is hope and try to stay sane.
