[NuKe]

welcome to romy, lou and becci! lovely to have more new faces in here!!!

and i know wat u ladies mean, ive been goin double dutch for years(pill and condom) cuz i was so petrified of gettin pg, and obv sti's. and now all i want is those 2 little pink lines!!! becci i was on ..mycrogynon? microginin? something like that until a year ago, but havent properly been ttc until a month ago. my doc advised me once i came off it i cud find it hard to conceive for up to 2 years after coming off it, but i know of ppl who have missed one day's pill and gotton knocked up! good luck for testing day!

if any newbies are reading this, im in the chatroom! click the chatroom button at the top of this page, in the purple bar! its easier to chat there! and romy- we every day after the leaves until a week before she arrives again! im not 100% sure on wen i ovulate as my cycles are irregular, so we just do it every day in the hope that we catch the eggy!

Thanks for letting us know about the chatroom, I had no idea it was there! Will check it out later as am work at the mo and we're not allowed on chatrooms!! I was on microgynon too. I know quite a few people who were on it, missed one pill and got pg, so I'm trying to be optimistic! xxx

i was on micrgynon for 17 mnths, then had 4 weeksoff in march this year didnt bleed...so went back on it for 2 weeks to get my AF...then had a proper AF bleed...(wont say too much) now am on CD15...and have ovulated xx

 

[PetiteMoi]

maybe - thanks for the advice about the bath, we might just try that! Your ov stick results and bd'ing look good! Fingers crossed!!xx

We managed to bd last night even though dh has a bad cold and just wanted to sleep! I feel stressed about the fact that I've heard it's more difficult to get pg if you stress about it (stressing about stressing, great!) and that you should relax and have sex as normal. Well we only have sex once a week normally so we couldn't go on doing that!! I just want to be pg nooooow!

Sorry to sound really dumb but what does cd1 etc mean?

 

[Maybe baby]

cycle day 1 xx

 

[PetiteMoi]

thanks maybe xx does that start on the day of your period? Wow I'm so ignorant when it comes to these expressions etc.

 

[Maybe baby]

CD1 is first day of ure period...then when u ovulate...say CD14...CD15 will be 1DPO(day past ov)

 

[PetiteMoi]

thanks hun!! Makes sense xx

 

[PetiteMoi]

So...that means I'm on CD17 today. My ov should be around 17 May but not necessarily - that is based on my cycle being 34 days and it's not always that...Last month I had the eggwhite like cm on CD19...oooh getting excited now! I guess we'll just have to stick to bd'ing every other day throughout it - or does anyone recommend doing it every day when you're ovulating?? xx

 

[Maybe baby]

i wud do day b4, day of, and day after ov to be sure but then again sperm live 5-7 days...who knows eh? xx

 

[PetiteMoi]

yeah who knows? every other day SHOULD technically speaking be enough though so we might stick to that ! xx

Hi Girls!

My name is Lisa Jo and my husband and I are TTC our 1st child. My periods have been irregular (every other month). I was also lactating small amounts. I went in for blood work and my prolactin levels were high. This I found out was due to the Reglan I take for indegestion 3x per day. I stopped for 4 days and my levels went back down to normal, but my stomach was miserable. I started charting this month and will test on May 20th. Hoping for a

Hi all and welcome to the newbies.

I have woken up today to my step brothers wife having given birth to a little (well not so little 10lb 2oz!) girl called Molly. So my family are going baby mad. Am so happy to have a new little niece and cant wait to meet her but cant help feeling a little jealous. Wrong is in it? My dad is so happy to be a grandad (step) again and just said to me on the phone 'well we seem to be waiting forever for you to get going' I know he is only joking and but I cant help wishing it was me.

Am I being horrible?

hey sparklyboo I don't think you are being horrible it's only natural to feel a bit funny about it when you want a baby so much. It doesn't mean your not happy for them or you are being selfish. Does your dad know you are trying? keep your chin up hun i'm sure your time will come soon just keep thinking positive

deffo! i always get jealous!!! its only natural hunnie!!

welcome lisajoa! gud luck for testing day!!!

 

[Maybe baby]

only natural to get jealous...my OH is going away with work again...6 days sad times...you all ok? xx

 

[PetiteMoi]

sparkly - congrats on being an auntie! You're not horrible at all sweetie, I would feel exactly the same!! My friend had a baby girl a couple of weeks ago and, while I'm really happy for her, I can't help feeling jealous about it as I really want a little girl too!!! It's only normal, allow yourself to feel that way. It's possible and perfectly normal to have both feelings at the same time - happiness for your stepbrother's family and jealousy because you want it yourself. Chin up hun It will be you soon!!! PMA!! xx
