Thanks, hon. It's just an overnight, I grabbed a local friend and we drove up to spend the night with a friend in Indiana. Fun girly time

Well have a great girly time and let us know when you see the BFP!!! which i have every faith you will have *power of positive thinking* xx

Thanks! We're having tons of fun. We had lunch and went to the outlet mall and stayed up chatting til the wee hours. Found a couple cute dresses - always fun trying to factor in whether the dress I'm considering could be worn through at least part of a pregnancy without letting on Going a bit nuts not testing, though!

Aww well only a few more days to wait im very excited for you x

It could be a pregnancy symptom! Or it could be you're a little dehydrated. Or maybe you ate asparagus But I vote pregnancy.

You could be dehydrated, that's the only time I notice a smell to my urine. If you think it could be the discharge smelling, you should speak to your doctor as it could be an infection and if an infection is left for long enough it can do damage.

I'd try drinking lots of water first though x

Mind if I join also? I know I've just had a baby, so I know its possible to conceive when overweight. Joining a slimming club on the 7th May as I have my 6 week pp check next week. I was about 26 stones when I fell pregnant with her, but I've always had regular periods. Temping for me was the best although I got positive ovulation packs too.

The reason I want another baby now might sound stupid, but I have the time to have another, which I might not have in a year or two. We're planning on moving aboard to a non English speaking country and I really wouldn't fancy having a baby where I wouldn't fully understand my health care provider.

Good luck everyone

Congratulations on the birth of your first child. Did you have any trouble ttc?

Good luck on ttc baby no.2

She is actually my 2nd. My first was conceived on birth control when I had a one night stand with his dad. To be fair we tried to make it work for him, but it wasn't meant to be. I was about 18 stones then. He's just had his 7th birthday but he's autistic. Wouldn't change him for the world though,

Erika took a lot longer than that. About 2 years and a miscarriage at the 1 year mark. I honestly wasn't expecting it to take so long when I wasn't even trying with her brother! Probably another reason I want to start ttc no3 now as I know it might take a while.

youv not drank enough hun. if your urine is really concentrated it stinks. this is gonna sound gross but if you put two fingers inside your vagina hun till you reach your cervix (or even before sometimes) swipe inside then look at your fingers.. you should be able to tell what kind of discharge you have. yuo saying clear makes me think either wet or EWCM.. youd have to try stretch it between your fingers so tell the difference. Your CM can be fertile for a while before you ovulate xxx

Oh right its probably not trying that allowed you to get caught so easily with your 1st.

Sometimes i wonder if we put to much pressure on ourselves. But then i guess when its something we really want its hard not put pressure on ourselves

Was you much heavier with you 2nd child?

 

[emma.faye]

Tbh i thinkim not drinking as much as i usually do cause of having to hold my wee lol. Im desperate now but got 10 more mins to wait... been holding for about an hour lol...but ill deffo drink more now

Hello thought I would join.

I'm 21, I have just lost five and a half stone but have two left to go.

I have pcos and have been trying for a year and five months. I'm on my second cycle of Clomid .

I need to motivation and support with my diet because at the moment I'm struggling to keep going .

[MrsKChicago]

Well, the witch showed up. We're taking May off from TTC, so I guess that gives me a little time to focus on weight loss.

Thanks, hon. I'll probably be out of town during my fertile period, and I'd rather not be in the 2ww during vacation, so we'll be preventing for May, then back to trying in June.

I've lost 40lbs and I'd like to lose another 50 or so, but my current mini-goal is another 12lbs. I doubt I'll make it before we start trying again in June, especially with 2 weeks of vacation in there, but at least I can make a dent. That'll take me from obese to overweight. Was hoping to be there before TTC, and I made it within a couple pounds, but I gained some back in December when we spent 2 weeks eating everything in Mexico

 

[emma.faye]

Mrs chicago

40lb is an excellent loss. Just remember every little helps

I dont think i would be careful just have carefree sex rather than sex to have a baby. Just try not to think about the tww. You never know without the stress of ttc it may happen?? But obviously you have to do whats best for you and your dh.

It will happen soon for you xxx
