Laura - I know I wished you a Happy Birthday on Friday but I never got around to wishing you it on here, so, Happy belated Birthday chick, glad to hear that you had an amazing day
We love you too chickadee xxxxx
Same..I know I did on facebook but happy birthday! Even if it is late sorry!! Me and bnb arent the closest of friends atm hehe ;D
Thanks ladies
right so.....
I dont know where im at with my cycle, like at all!! thought i ov'd at CD14/18, seems not as no AF and still BFN's got my BFP at CD16 last time should have had something by now if preggers. BUT i then had possible ov pains on friday so I'm mega confused! was having symptoms post first lot of ov pains but now nothing other than one cramp earlier and a sore foofoo like i've got a water infection but it doesnt hurt when i pee so i know i dont have one. so confused
Its possible that you tried to OV the first time and didnt, and that youve gone on to ov now maybe. Its hard to say without the temping to be honest!!
so I saw the heading "We're all in this together" and tears started to roll down my face.

Yup, I think I need to be in this conversation.
Awww..you are very welcome here Chasta! x
I think its sad that noone unerstands your need to TTC. It doesnt matter that you have grown up children and a grandchild on the way..at the end of the day an ache is an ache no matter the circumstances hun. I think its lovely that you want to have another child and give that experience to your hubby too..congrats on being newlyweds btw!
Sorry to hear about your loss

Its a horrible situation to be in, one I think most of us around here can empathise with on bnb. You will find a lot of support chick
I highly recommend fertility friend. The free version is just as good as the vip tbh..only thing it doesnt do which in my opinion is a fun extra is count the dpo..but lets be honest...we can all count!
Hi ladies! Do you mind if I join in on this thread with you all? I post on a couple other TTC Buddies threads, but they aren't very active like this one seems to be. I am 26 and my DH is 31. We got married in March of this year and this is our first official cycle of TTC #1. It is very exciting! Since this is my first cycle charting, I'm not exactly sure which CD I ovulate on, but I'm thinking it should've been somewhere around yesterday...perhaps a few days before or even a few days after, so we are still BD'ing just about every day to try to up our chances. I have had some light spotting that started Sunday evening a light pinkish color, but yesterday and today is a brownish color. It has almost gone away today though. I'm hoping it is just either ovulation spotting or implantation spotting. I am almost 100% sure it can't already be my AF, as it would be way to soon for that. Good luck to everyone and it's very exciting following others' journeys at the same time.

to everyone!
The more the merrier! Nice to have you here also
AFM:
Im sarah

33years old and my partner is 32 and Swedish. We started trying to conceive in 2009 and nothing happened. In 20011 we had a surprise bfp and were over the moon. Unfortunately after going through a lot of backwards and forwards (being told id miscarried, then told all was fine, then finding out it wasnt fine and it was in my tube) we had to let go of the pregnancy. It hit me really hard as it was my first ever bfp and I really thought "this is it". It was a long recovery as I didnt really respond to the treatment at the time, but we eventualy got through it.
We continued ttc, doing the whole hog: having sex every day, sometimes multiple times, trying the every other day, taking every vitamin known to man, using opks, temping, etc etc. Nothing was happening. In the following year we were seen by our GP who thought I needed help ttc so we were referrd to a specialist. I was told that I wasnt ovulating, at all, and that was the biggest emotional blow. I was so convinced with my charts etc that I was so I couldnt understand why they were telling me I wasnt. Additionally, the week before my first fertility appointment I had a surprise bfp. I was so happy and thought that I was lucky enough to be one of those women who seem to fall naturaly when the threat of intervention turns up. But later that day I started to bleed and after three days of blood testing it was confirmed it was a chemical and it hadnt stuck. So, I was scheduled for an HSG to check my tubes were not blocked and was waiting to attend the follow up where I was likely to start with Clomid. I had the hsg done which confirmed I had some scarring in my right tube from the ectopic.
I lost all hope at this point. I had a dud tube, I wasnt ovulating..how could I get pregnant? I stopped me and the OH taking all the vitamins, mentally I gave up, got drunk as hell to celebrate out anniverary and low and behold, two weeks later I was shocked to my teeth to find out I had conceived :O After lots of bleeding scares, a pregnancy of consistent morning (all day seriously...) sickness, I gave birth to my son Alexander on my OWN birthday! So pleased with that
Wall of text...sorry! But long story short...after heading on 4 years of hopes and dreams, I finally gave birth to my world.
We are now ntnp no2. I dont actively try to get pregnant at the mo because my son has been sickly as he has really bad reflux and is milk allergic, but we are not on any birth control..so hopefully we shall be blessed with another, but if not, Alex is the most wonderful gift.
