Need a TTC buddy

[Mrs-C]

babydreamer - I agree with you. How long you are together doesn't matter. I knew I wanted my kids with DH years ago. I just needed to finish uni, get a full time job and our own home. Now we have those things, we can start our family.

I really didn't mean any offence by my post. Sorry all.

Who do you think you offended, sweetheart? I think we all know what you mean.

You're 24, aren't you? That's not young by any stretch of the imagination. It's a fine age to have children. You are an educated young woman that holds her life in her own hands, you have a steady job that offers you financial security, you have a husband that is your soul mate and your best friend, what else would one need? If these are not requirements to start a family, I really don't know what is.

No offence taken by me. I wish I had met DP years ago, I would love to be a young Mum. Now I just hope I am one before Im 30!

<---not offended at all everyone comes into wanting kids on their own time...early or later. i was late bloomer so to speak i've enjoyed this topic to see how everyone came to this decision and where we all are in life....despite our ages (there's 10 years between you and me) we are in very similar points in our life.

Hi ya'll!

Mrc-C, you are certainly not too young to have kids!! You need to brush off whoever made that comment to you. It sounds like you guys are in a perfect position to start your family

Cedar, are there any snack type recipes you have that are Russian? If so, please PM me...would SO appreciate it. Also are there any hospitality traditions in Russia? I have one of her friends staying with us---ie, fresh flowers, fruit basket...I don't know

Just drinking my raspberry leaf tea It is yummy...and it is supposed to strengthen your uterus.

PS...I can't wait to take down this damn ovulation ticker and put up a pregnancy one!!

Hello ladies, sorry it has been so long since I have been around on here, been going through some shit. We recentely found out that our foundation is cracking and it will cost approx. 50000 to fix, we have really been stressing out about what to do as we unfortunatly do not have 50k laying around, and it appears as if that side of the house could go at anytime. On a happier I am 7 weeks as of yesterday. Still super tired. My parent's neighbor hood is doing a family fun day on saturday, this is geared toward the young kids in the neighborhood, so we will be going to this and helping out, it should b efun, and they are haveing a funnel cake stand, I know horrible for you but delicious!! I am hoping that this will help make the time go by a little faster and the appointment will hopefully feel like it gets here quicker. I go Monday at 12:45.
Mrs-c, I know what you mean, I have seen this and have heard this, my sister looks really young, but is older than me 28, she has an 8 year old and a 6 year old, back when they were a bit younger, when we would go our shopping together it would never fail that someone would would make a comment, and not just to themselves, people have actually came up to us and said don't you think your a little young to have childen, can you say ignorant!!!! She was 20 when she had the first and I definatley don't think that she is any less of a mother. So rude!!! I also have seen where before people new we were pregnant(MIL spilled the beans) that they would say, oh you need to wait until your in your 30's until you have kids, you dont want to ruin your 20's. That will be the last time you and your hubby have alone time, etc, etc. Well guess what we both want kids, we want to share our lives with a child, and I would never look at it like a child ruined anything.

 

[Mrs-C]

Thanks all I think I'm just being over-sensitive.

dragonfly - sorry about your house. I too would be worried (I'm the worrier in our relationship - incase you hadn't already worked that out!).

I hope something comes out of nowhere so you don't have to worry anymore.

Oh - and I have cm today. Good thing...??

Me too!

 

[MinneGirl]

Dragonfly, I'm really sorry about the house. I hope you guys can figure out a solution. You just keep yourself healthy & as stress-free as possible for that little bean cooking in you

 

[MinneGirl]

Hi girls!
Not much new going on...can't wait to get BUSY next week. We are going to an out of town wedding next weekend and staying with friends...should make the 2x/day thing interesting....HUH? Oh well--we will have to be quiet

Yay for the weekend!!!!

Fx'd for those of you who are in the Tww...hope this is a good month for us!

 

[membas#1]

I bet you can sneak away Minnegirl

Huge hormone shift for me yesterday--emotional, tired and ill feeling. Here's hoping today is better...I have a camping trip to finish getting ready for and I need all the energy I can muster. Hope you ladies have a great weekend

 

[BabyDreamer82]

Morning girls! hope you are all well!

Mrs-C I see your not too far off from testing..

AFM well im on CD25 i think about 9dpo? so only have 2 days left until the is first due to rear her ugly head. Im nervous, I tested yesterday - early i know - but got a bfn, or one of those made up lines that could be an evap, a v v v faint line or just line eyes from staring so hard

I havent really had any symptoms, my bbs dont hurt this time, I thought MAYBE I felt a bit 'icky' yesterday but maybe just dehydration. Light headaches all week - but thats not necessarily anything different & a few twinges & tinglings..
The only thing that is really different is Ive lost my appetite a lot & Ive lost 2kg over the last few weeks.. Im sure Im normally heavier just before AF? But She might not show til Friday so I have close on a week to pile it all back on

 

[Mrs-C]

Well.... I've had cramps today. Started on my right, and moved round to the middle. Once they faded my stomach was tender to push on the front. Not sure what that means?

I've also felt today like I do when AF is on her way - even down to the point where I would think 'oops best go to the loo and put a towel on'. But, obviously way too early for AF, and nothing there. (AF is due a week on Monday)

I don't want to get my hopes up, but I don't remember this happening before....

Hi Gals!

Yay, BabyDreamer and Mrc-C--I am putting bets that one of you get your BFP this month...I can just feel it

It is HOT here today. I just sat out in the sun to get a bit of Vitamin D and am now preparing for my party tonight--clearly taking a bit of a break to check on you girls Now I just need to go pick up the sushi in a couple of hours and make my cosmopolitan's and I'll be all set. Luckily, I'm not in the 2WW, so I can enjoy a few cocktails tonight with the girls

Keep us posted you girls who are close, and FX'd the witch doesn't arrive for either of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MinneGirl]

Babydreamer...you are getting close!!! Fx'd no witch arrives for 9 more months for you!!

Babydreamer, have you tested again? Also, I had to laugh at your comment about staring so hard you might see a line...I do this with every test--hold it up to different lights/different windows....stare and stare and stare...sometimes thinking I see the infamous second line

 

[membas#1]

Hi ladies. Just dropping in to check on you all. A couple of you are getting really close to testing time! Exciting! Fx'd for BFPs this month!!!

I'm feeling quite well these last few days...had an excellent camping trip, nausea has subsided and I don't feel like i have to eat every hour-2 right now....I haven't had to get up in the night to have a snack now for 3 nights. It's so refreshing as food was becoming an evil chore...and that's not a fun way to survive! Trying to think of a couple recipes I can make this week that will incorporate more veggies into my diet--the one thing i nixed when i was nauseous and too gassy. it's too hot for soup unfortunately cuz i love veggie soups.

anyways--hope you are all doing well and fx'd for BFPs this month!!!!

 

[BabyDreamer82]

Hi guys, so AF isnt here today yet which is good, but then she may be waiting pounce.

I did test again yesterday arvo & thought i saw something so took it from window to window & for a walk outside but i tested this morn & couldnt really sere anything. Although (tmi?) I did notice my pee isnt as yellow this morn as yesterdays was.??
Ive decided the 'I think i can see lines' are bfn, Im not counting a BFP til i see a 'I KNOW thats a line' line .. make sense?

I feel like AF is coming, Im cranky, dont have sore bbs(although I normally do by now), im just not feeling the pma.

I hope Im wrong
