Hello you chatty bunch!! Sarah for smiley face and being in the 2ww!!

sheryl.. fingers crossed for you my dear!!

Babyhopes... YEY for the scan.. that's exactly what happened to me with Lottie when I fell pregnant with her.. my cycles were 35 days back then, so by the time I got my BFP.. my ticker said 5 weeks.. but really I was only 4!

NDH.. hoping for your BFP hun xx

Yay Sarah for your smiley face! Hopefully that's been it all along - early ov and not anovulatory cycles.

Sheryl, yay for your OH saying you can still TTC!

AFM, still a at 12 dpo

Hello you chatty bunch!! Sarah for smiley face and being in the 2ww!!

thanks my lovely! it was nice that it came early as it was a boring wait for me. I will see if I have a smiley face still tonight, I think I might. so the tests detect your LH surge 12-36 hours before you ovulate, so say I guess that tomorrow is O day, then do I count tuesday as 1dpo? you know me and counting!!! Ive adjusted my ticker to show a 28 day cycle and so it puts my O as tomorrow.

how are you feeling?

 

[sarahincanada]

i was expecting to see atleast a sac and thats what i got to see. no fetal pole yet. !

preethi you sound like a knowledgeable pregnant lady look at you!!! fetal pole? I wouldnt know about any of that stuff. Im going to be so clueless!

Any time really. I usually have 26 day cycles, which is what my ticker is based off. Though it's also in the wrong time zone and is half a day behind, so today is actually CD25. 23 or 24 day cycles are not uncommon though, and my last cycle was only 24 days.

I do know that something like 30% of s don't show up until after 12dpo, so I'm trying to cling to that hope, but I'm just not feeling it. But if AF is not here by Wednesday morning I'll test again.

 

[sarahincanada]

so Im spotting right now WHY ARE MY CYCLES NEVER STRAIGHTFORWARD!!! I have to assume its Ovulation spotting seeing as I have my positive Ov test yesterday and this morning (havent done tonight yet). Ive never had ovulation spotting before, has anyone else? the one time I thought I had it was that stupid cycle that I ended up getting my period really early. Im praying its Ov spotting and not that again, surely not if Im getting positive Ov tests

 

[sherylb]

Some people can O the day they get a +.

 

[babyhopes2323]

Yay mummy, that gives me some encouragement.. flying, ill try to do that thing with the ticker but ill just have to sort my dates out or something..

Sheryl, FX'D for you..and yes cant wait for all of us to have a thread in first tri..

Sarah... yea that polyp seems confusing, best get it out of the way, but if you do have a chance to get pregnant without any risks while the polyp is still there then brilliant, you dont have to go under, be it 10 mins or 10 seconds !!

i would check up on that spotting.. if your really not in time for AF then there must be some explanation of ov spotting i guess..

canada.. always wanted to visit.. always.. maybe will do someday. DH's friends from canada.. ive been in dubai pretty much all my life. if youve never visited, think 40-45degrees summer every single day, high rise buildings, dubai always trying to top some other country by building too much too soon and now with recession, most buildings are half done !! haha.. it gets way too hot in the summer, arabs have a lot of money to play with, grocery and everything is delievered to your door step with one phone call.
its an easy spoiled life to be brutally honest and i just wana get out of here at some stage.

move to some other country, suburbian living..dogs, the works..

probably australia once my baby is born as DH moved to australia 6 years ago and has an ozzie passport as well and he loves australia.DH is british from east yorkshire. well im indian if you havent guessed yet ,and hes not. hes from yorkshire but dosent have that thick accent.. ive got married in york and have been to the uk over a couple of times and always loved it..

im not some big knowledgable person hahaha !!! i was and still am way too obsessed with pregnancy and getting pregnant and have been googling A LOT !!

its amazing the things you can find out just simply by googling !!

sorry for rambling on.. but hope the spotting goes away and its simply ov spotting or something..

xxx take care all

 

[sarahincanada]

hi everyone!

well it must have been ov spotting, last night I got a negative ov test and now my cm is not as wet as it was the past 2 days. so thats pretty cool that I got a physical symptom of ov this time. I had a little panic last night as I dont like to see anything different and worried about an early period again, but theres no more spotting. so if I Od yesterday then Im officially 1dpo. My period will come when Im relaxing in England

Preethi I dont think I knew your hubby was from the uk! thats great! and I visited Australia last year and LOVED it, so thats an excellent choice. You have to put up a photo of you and hubby so I can picture you

I have to run but wanted to pop on and say hi....

 

[nypage1981]

Wow sarah must have been a good OV since you got spotting! I had never heard of that but it must mean something good!

Preethi I think dubai is such an interesting place. I knew of a few guys from US who moved to dubai. Just to go see it. Was a bold move. Is dubai known for making, producing anything? Or for strong political views or religious beliefs? I have not heard much about it in the news or anything except that famous people will go there. Lol.

hi! I got sucked into reading posts on here when I should be working! of course as soon as I got the spotting I googled all evening to try and find people with positive ov test and spotting same day. seeing as I got a smiley face the day before and that morning its totally possible I ovulated yesterday afternoon as its 12-36 hours after you get a smiley. theres lots of sites that mention spotting with ovulation and some say its a great sign. of course Im not expecting anything to happen, just pleased to ovulate and have normalish cycles.

Im thinking perhaps the reflexology brought it on earlier and stronger than normal? but who knows. perhaps I have spotted during ov before, but because I didnt track my periods/ov and look everytime I wiped I didnt notice before!

Ive been working out a lot....I am in the overweight category for my height and need to loose 20 pounds to be in the normal category. now that its the 2WW I thought perhaps I should take it easier, but I think exercise is good for the body and seeing as Im pre-op Id prefer to take this time to really try and lose some pounds.

how are you doing, feeling any calmer?

 

[MummyCat]

Hi ladies...

feeling exhausted, so needed a nap this afternoon... but Lottie screamed for 2 hours, no solidly, but about 10-15 min after i'd leave her room!

Sarah I was going to say 1dpo should be today, but then saw your post that you agree

Hope everyone is okay, i'm trying to wake up a bit with coffee... it's not working!!

NDH hope you have good news soon xx

 

[nypage1981]

Mmmmmm coffee. I miss SO SO much. I have dreams of coffee. Its making me cranky!

Sarah- I would continue the excercise. I had just began to work our reeeaaaallllly hard when I got my bfp! I had begun the regimen about 3 weeks before my test. So maybe it helped in the 2ww? I was trying to get thin for florida next month but now thats a moot point! I am feeling ok. The progesterone is making me all sorts of moody though I think. Ive not been myself and could sleep forever. Makes me feel kind of like a loser when I cant get any housework done!

FX'd NDH!

oh well, being pregnant is a great excuse to not do housework!!


and thats good to know, what exercise were you doing? I will continue then.. we've had a treadmill for years and I go on it for an hour most nights watching tv but wasnt seeing any results as I wasnt pushing myself and I dont like to run. I think my walking fast on there for an hour per day just compensated for sitting down on a computer all day but not enough for weight loss. I was burning about 250 calories on the treadmill per night which isnt enough.

so we got an elliptical and boy is it tougher. Im sweating and exhausted after 5 minutes! So Im trying to go on that and the treadmill morning and night, 300 calories worth both times so 600 for the day.

We also purchased a mini weight machine and are waiting for it to come into the store. I want to do some weight exercises like I used to do at the gym, and never bother with free weights. I cant wait to get that. I exercise more now than I ever did in my 20's, but I guess our bodies change and its really hard to lose weight now I find. I really want to lose some weight before I get pregnant otherwise I can just see myself expanding and expanding!!

anyone do pilates? Im so stiff I was thinking of taking that up, and can continue if I get pregnant.

 

[nypage1981]

Yep- I run an hour also at quite a high incline for a lot of the time. My OH is a trainer so he made a program for me. I was also doing pilates and yoga for abs...so im surprised at the bfp after the hell i was putting myself through. Lol. I've stopped it all. I will walk on treadmill in 2nd tri but with the occasional brown spots right now, im not interested in ANY excercise. I dont even want to do laundry up and down the stairs right now!

perhaps your body liked the workouts and it helped! I always think that athletes, dancers and pop stairs get preggers while doing a lot of exercise so it must be ok. but I would do the same in first tri, thats when things are forming so best to be careful.

Im hoping that while Im moving on the elliptical my polyp is moving side to side making room for spermies and egg

awww sorry to hear that! is she sick I think you said? that would be exhausting. does your husband work long hours during the week?

and coffee...theres a limit to the caffeine you can have per day I assume. I drink a lot of tea (with milk & sugar bad I know) and Id like to still have some if I get my bfp as its my staple. So NY you are not having any I take it.

 

[nypage1981]

No, I am having no caffeine. Was told with my daughter 7 years ago its best to have none in 1st tri. SO, i go off it completely. I crave my favorite frozen coffee drink very bad. And it does NOT come in de-caf! How aweful....I beg my OH to let me have one just one but he says nope. sheesh!

 

[babyhopes2323]

Ny, dubai is known for trying to upstage other countries. i dont know if youve heard about burj khaleefa, the tallest building in the whole work with 157 floors. and manmade palm islands in water. i live on one of them, got a great deal.. dubais knows for lets say oil and gas business tycoons.. and yea i guess you gotta come visit. itll be like a long summer holiday !!

religion is not as bad as saudi.. the max population in dubai has now been over taken by indians and brits.. lots and lots of brits who want to work here tax free.., because theres no tax in this country and if you earn lets say 50,000 dirhams a month, you get every single penny and your not taxed. so you can save a lot, but going out is expensive and so it depends on the kinda life you wana live !

sarah, youve seen me ! i had my wedding pic on as my avatar before.. but ive gained so much weight now its ridiculous. doc has warned me not to gain anymore and says this entire pregnancy, you should gain a max of 8 kilo and not more.. :doh:

im having bad cramps all day today and some white discharge, am so worried about spotting.,. nothing yet, thank god for that.. but am obsessively checking my underpants everytime i go to the loo !!

i need somebody to reassure me tenfold everyday !


hope mummy and NY are not stressing as much as i am !!


sarah yay for you FX'D the spotting is normal !!

i still have milk tea with sugar every other day, just a tiny cup.. ive started on this bad habit because of my DH. sarah i think you know too well, how much brits like to have their cup of tea , scratch that CUPS OF TEA during the day !! mine can go upto 5 easily.. its crazy.. but he tries not to.. i can always bribe him with that.. everytime i ask him to wait longer somewhere for some reason i say.. "oh we can get a cup of tea"and his face brightens up as though ive mentioned something fantastic"

haha.. its funny but its only after i went to the UK and experienced the bitter cold weather that i understood the brits obsession with tea.. and now, im kinda hooked myself !

have a nice night ladies.. sleep well..xxx im off..xx
