RE: the question
We did a little bit but SO kind of wiped any wetness off before moving onto to baby making

Good question! We even questioned that ourselves

 

[BabyDreamer82]

Hey girls how are you all?

Mrs-C has it sunk in yet?

I know this been asked before, but since so much time has passed I'll ask again, because if your anything like me, you sometimes daydream about it.
Anyway, have you thought of names for our babies to be?

I had already decided on Rose & Alex?(boy) for middle names. But I quite like Ava Rose, & (although its crazy popular because of twilight & that annoys me) Isabella Rose - I think it sound so pretty, or maybe a play on 'Alex' & for a girl Alexi or Alexis. Hmm I could do this all day...but only for girls. I get to boy names & Im stumped

 

[Mrs-C]

Hi Ladies!

It's still not sunk in to be honest! We did another superdrug early test yesterday and got a darker line so we did the digi to - and 'pregnant' came up really quick! It said 1-2 weeks, which is what we thought.

We went to the docs last night after work and told my parents after a meal out with them. We're telling DH's parents tonight. It's his mum's birthday so we're going to give her a card that says 'Happy Birthday Nana' !!

That's all we're telling for now, until the 12 weeks scan. We know it's early, but should the worst happen we'd want them to know anyway.

DH is very excited now we've had three positives - he has his Christmas Eve face on! He's a big kid at Christmas.

As for names - we've got Spencer for a boy and Caitlin for a girl.

I'm expecting you ladies to get your this month

 

[MinneGirl]

Mornin' Gals!
Mrc-C, I can imagine it still has not sunk in yet...I can't imagine EVER actually getting pregnant...I don't know what I'll feel when it happens! Can you remind us if you did anything different this month? What was the BD schedule?

We got some more action in again last night...2 times yesterday I did take my temp this am (only once this time, I SWEAR), just to confirm ovulation and my temp was up, so I think I ovulated. After last months craziness, I just wanted to be sure. So, I think we did all we could this month...would have liked to get a bit more BD'ing in, like on Saturday, but oh well...we were both so busy standing up in a wedding and out of town. All in all, I think we have a good chance of catching the egg

So LaRockera, are you and DH still on a break? I noticed you mentioned getting yourselves checked out later this year if it still hasn't happened...??

Cedar, hope your trip in the US is going great!

xoxo

 

[LaRockera]

Well, I've decided to start trying properly again when I'm back in the UK, which is the second half of September- so October actually. We only shagged a couple of times during August, and it was great fun actually Not expecting much of it tbw.

My DH will have his s checked just before we return, as we feel more comfortable doing these things in Greece for a variety of reasons (acquaintances being the most important actually; my godfather is an urologist and may be able to refer us to someone in case something is not quite right). Then I said, if nothing happens until our next trip to Greece, i.e. in Christmas, I'll go run tests for myself as well.

Good luck this month, Minnegirl! You guys have been trying longer than me, hopefully we'll have at least one more August ?

 

[MinneGirl]

Thanks...yes, on cycle #6...if I count March, where we only Bd'd once in the fertile week and prior to my . It is my turn, I reckon!

Yours, and Babydreamer's, and winston's, and Cedarwood's, too.

I'm a month behind you btw, although April and May were more kind of a NTNP thing. Tbh all I think about at the moment is my book, book, book...

PS. I think I have to isolate myself today. Progesterone it taking its toll, I'm screaming at everybody that has the misfortune of getting in my way. Not a good idea to go to the supermarket perhaps?

 

[LaRockera]

I got a better idea. I shall go for a swim .

 

[MinneGirl]

Good plan!!

Where is Wintson?!

hi ladies--just had a second to catch up before showering to head off to work for a while. i've been working the last few days to beat the heat. the heat makes my nausea worse, and everything feel crappy--so i'm taking a break from vacation and going back to work at least till the temps chill (which should be tomorrow or so). we don't have AC, as most houses don't...and our window's are the kind that are suitable for a window unit--but we may be getting one of those portable AC that you vent through a tube out the window for next year if I'm gonna be home in the summer with a baby. anyways--just wanted to respond on the names....
For a boy we like Ammon for the first name...not sure on middle yet. SO likes Ammon Emmanuel, but that's a lot of Mmmmmm's for me...although it does grow on me. There are a few others too but Ammon has been the top so far. For a girl we have always liked Olethea (although I prefer Alethea spelling...SO wants to spell with an O), I love Ophelia as a name, and SO asked me a few nights ago what I thought of Isabella. So those are our top 3 girl names right now. I really love Alethea. So we'll see. We will find out gender at 20 weeks and then we'll work on it

 

[LaRockera]

I know she had a false BFP last month, which absolutely sucks, and wanted to take some time off the boards... I hope she'll be with us soon again. She's a proud mum of four already, and she herself knows it's reason in itself for utter happiness.

You know, I've been philosophizing. Perhaps it's because I'm focusing all my energy on my work at the moment, but I know for a fact that having children is indeed in my future plans, even if I'll have to adopt. As long as I'm safe and sound, and especially my beloved ones are safe and sound, everything else is achievable with the appropriate attitude and perspective.

Going for that evening swim now.

LOL Not sure if Alethea is of Greek origin, but if it is, it means Truth.

From these three I'd go for Isabella. Love it.

 

[MinneGirl]

I love Isabella too!!! One of my fav's!

 

[MinneGirl]

Our names are a secret

Good luck this month, Minnegirl! You guys have been trying longer than me, hopefully we'll have at least one more August ?

I'm just quoting this to clarify something: I wholeheartedly wish Minnegirl to get her as I do for all of us. I by no means intend to imply that anybody deserves to get their s sooner or later than the others. Babydreamer has been trying 8 cycles now, and CedarWood for longer I suspect.

My point was that, you that have been trying for longer than six months, should keep in mind that every cycle brings you closer to that .

As you can see, I had that swim .

ETA: Reading this post makes you think I feel this does not even concern me (lol!) The truth is, I've acquired a somewhat new obsession: you know how we wish to change our tickers from ovulation to pregnancy ones here? Well, I want to change my status to the other forum to published writer. There's always something one will long for, isn't it?

*sighs in anticipation*.

I hadn't thought that was implied at all!
Im feeling good about his month, I hope we have a few BFP's! oh & a successful conception for me so I get that BFP early Sept!

Im bored, Im ready to be in the tww again. Oh I have a minor problem too. I am supposed to go out for a girls night on the 3rd, I will only be about 7dpo, nobody knows we ttc, Im not sure how Im going to be able to hide 'not drinking'. Any ideas?

I don't think anyone took what you said the wrong way All we all want in the end is a baby...some of us will get it sooner (as some already have) and some will take a bit longer In the end, we will all get those BFP's though!!

LaRockera, are you already published? What type of book are you writing? How exciting!!!!!!!

What I used to do was say I went out the other night and got sooo wasted, and am now trying to take a break, detox or something...

This month I've actually been drinking. Not excessively, but all the way throughout.
