NervousNelly I so get what you mean when you say everyone else seems to get pregnant just by looking at each other! Every day on Facebook is a new pregnancy announcement lol. Hoping that it's your turn soon - I've been off bcp for about four months, and this month was our first month of really trying- and mine as well!
TTC in June anyone

Right?? I mean I'm happy for my friends/relatives that are pregnant...but it's totally my turn now lol. Especially when a lot of them seem to be "accidental" pregnancies. Bah.

Congrats MrsB! Wishing you a smooth nine months!
I think I'm quite lucky in that, especially in my close friends, I am the only one anywhere near this, although there seems to be something in the water in my workplace. I mostly just look longingly at bumps, I have such bump envy!

Ha same. My sis had baby last week and I stupidly put a pic on Facebook with me holding him and got bombarded with "ohhhhh suits u, u should really start trying for one" "ohhhh when will u be giving us a baby" ehhhhhh I am trying 🙈(said in my head) but out loud saying "I am not quite ready yet for kids" 🙈🙈can't handle people knowing I am trying and it's not working 😬anyone else a closet trier or are u guys more open?
Very much a closet trier! I told my mom when I went off birth control pills, so she knows we are trying, but that's it. When we do get that BFP, I think I really want to wait until I'm 3-4 months along before really "announcing" it as well. I may be too excited to wait that long though

Pregnant colleagues and baby mad friends know we are trying, plus a couple of long distance friends, but none of my group know yet, it's like I'm ok with people further away knowing, but not closer. Families were aware that we wanted to try soon, a couple of years ago, but we've not said anything this time round. I wish everyone knew, and cared, because I am obsessed!
All on the same page- the accidentals are the WORST! And people who comment that you are SO great with babies, why aren't you trying? I think I may start telling people we are having a hard time, just to shut them up (ha)... there's not much to ask about after that.

Ok, was gonna quote peeps but I agree with ALL of you. Loads of people, my sister,like 3 people at work and alllll over fb too all pregnant, really at the drop of a hat. And all so insensitive with all the bloody questions! I'm kind of in the closet but some close friends know we're trying (friends who also tried a while and so understand) but that's why I'm glad we can all talk thru the madness together on here!
Congratulations Mrs B! That's one bfp (so far!) On this thread,one last month too so good odds so far I'd say.
So, curly, did you test again today?

Mini, are you planning to test soon?
And Swimmy, I agree with the advice the ladies already gave. But really doesn't matter either way if you are in it together so try not to worry, get the results and take the next steps. We are cheering you along!

I'll try to wait until after AF is supposed to arrive around Friday or Saturday - if nothing by Sunday then I'll test. I'm having the usual pre-AF symptoms, so I'm pretty positive it will arrive on time
What about you, are you having any symptoms? You should be starting around the same time, right? Although NOT starting would be optimal!

Of course, and as expected, bfn, but I still feel... Different. I may well just be imagining it, I know how powerful the mind is, but i can't get away from the feeling. Hoping that when (if?) AF shows I can be sensible and then calm it down next month. I tend to get very caught up in things when there is lots I can read!
Same here, Curly! I start reading into everything and then the next thing I know I'm stocking my Etsy cart with baby onesies...lol. Good luck though, hopefully AF stays far away from you and you get your bfp!

Ah, see I have self imposed rules on buying things, so I hd two books planned to buy when I started TTC, when I get my bfp I'll be allowed a more expensive preggo book, but there will be no items bought until 12 week scan, because I tend to go overboard with them too!
Still, plenty of information out there for me to absorb,currently loving the endless supply of facts available on the countdown to pregnancy website (too new for linkage)
Oooh, that's a good plan, starting to buy at 12 weeks. I haven't actually purchased anything yet either, because I know that I will go overboard. I just favorite lots of stuff on Etsy so far
So many cute baby clothes!

Mini, we are due the witch at the same time, I forgot! Due on Saturday. Feeling 'out' but not for any real reason so fingers crossed for us all.
Same. Definitely not feeling pregnant but hopefully I'm wrong. Have you had any unusual symptoms?

Bad news for me guys SA came back bad. Low count, slow swimmers, 100% head abnormalities, Pretty much the prefect 3 negatives. We are being referred to a specialist so TTC is on hold. But I'll keep popping in to see how all of you guys are doing can wait for more of you to get BFP!!!
