WTT with a view to TTC in Sept/Oct/Nov - looking for a TTC buddy!

[Soniamillie01]

I would love a Christmas announcement be so good!

I've also seen loads of cute baby grows, one with est in 2011 on it which if we do fall before Christmas I will be buying. My mum and I went to Brighton yesterday (it's not far from us) and they have some wacky clothes as it is but some of the baby stuff is so cute. Refrain, refrain - I must refrain!

Swimming is ok, I'm usually up any how as an early rising (hence why posting this early on a Sunday) so seems silly not too plus makes me less tired throughout the day.
I'm off on hols tomorrow night and not looking forward to missing you all x

 

[Soniamillie01]

Hi all, just wanted to wish you all well for the next two weeks and lots of baby dust, I hope to come back to some big fat positives! Guessing we may all be on a two week wait soon, I know the wait is killing me!

Look forward to reading up on the posts when back next week.
Take care all x

Have fun on your holidays and make the most of all that free time!

According to Fertility Friend I ovulated 3 days ago so hopefully I´ll be TTC by the time you get back! Yay!

A quick question for you all - the temperature change on my chart was really clear and looked just like all the examples of how it should look when ovulating BUT I didn´t have any EWCM or any other symptoms at all. I´m not too bothered about the other symptoms as I know that loads of people don´t have any at all but is it normal to have no EWCM at all? I´m taking Evening Primrose Oil which is meant to help but doesn´t seem to have worked (but has made my hair really thick and shiny!). I only came off my BCP 3 weeks ago - do you think that could be the cause? x

Soniamillie01- Enjoy your holidays, relax and get plenty of BD!!

miss malteser- I'm sorry, I can't help you there because I have absolutely NO idea how those things work! lol I'm just going with the flow of things for now!

It's been 3 weeks since I took my last BCP and still no AF. I bought 2 hpt's today but I don't think I'll use them unless AF doesn't come for another few weeks. I should set myself a date because it's going to take a LOT of self control believe me!! I'm having mild cramps today and over the weekend, had quite a bad spot break-out on Friday and have had REALLY sore nipples up until yesterday (I've never experienced this before!), and because I haven't had a 'real' period in nearly 8 years, I've forgotten what the symptoms are!! I'm thinking they are side effects from finishing my pills but I can deal with that because DH commented yesterday that he loves the new me! (I was a bit of a bitch when I was on BCP's)I've also noticed a real difference in my mood - I don't get angry or upset half as much as before, so I'm quite chuffed!!
I'm still on the look-out for jobs and can't seem to find anything suitable hopefully something will come up by the end of the week!

Hello ladies!! Sorry I've been soo AWOL from this thread. Welcome all newcomers I've read everyone's posts - too much to comment on but I keep up to date with all the news! I can't believe some of you are on a 2WW eeeek how exciting?!?! I think it's around 3 weeks til I ovulate and we start trying now.. I can't wait, but there's a few niggles in my head - firstly, I will have only been in my new job 4 months when I tell them (at 14 weeks) and will still be on my 6 month probation - meaning they could get rid of me and not have to give a reason.. another thing is our house is a bit small, and we're looking to move, but don't want to be heavily pregnant when we move so I hope we find somewhere really soon! Hope everyone's doing ok

I get really sore nipples just before ovulating - so I think it could have been that? You sometimes ovulate a little later than normal after stopping BCP. eeek exciting - I would test in 2 weeks

It is normal to not have ewcm. Chances are you had something close enough to it that would have done the trick. So if you are tracking that again next time, just BD like crazy if you have any cm that's even remotely stretchy.

I agree that they´re probably ovulation symptoms as I´ve heard that it can be delayed after stopping BC too. If Fertility Friend is correct I didn´t ovulate until cd25. Make sure there´s lots of BDing just in case!

Hi ladies!

Just an update. So no AF today, I usually would get it today or tomorrow while on BCP's, so maybe this is a good sign that I am nearing OV and I'll get my first real AF a month from my WD bleeding! But hopefully I won't be seeing the anymore due to a BFP soon! Can't wait for it to almost be 3 weeks off BCP's, then an entire month so I can finally start learning what is going on down there.

Morning all!

How amazing is this weather we're having in the UK?! Getting sunburn at the end of September is a new one for me!! I'm making the most of it though because apparently there's a 'big freeze' heading our way at the end of October! What a contrast that would be!

Well I think AF is here! I'm not completely certain as it's just a teeny bit and only when I wipe but she could be making a gradual appearance! My nipples are a LOT less sensitive now too, thank goodness!!

I told my mum that we'll be trying for a baby soon and she thinks it's a good idea if I lose some weight before conceiving as being overweight can cause things like diabetes etc. DH totally agrees with her (which is a new thing for him! lol) and thinks we should wait until I lose 2-3 stone before trying. After much persuasion, I am willing to wait because it means giving our baby a better start in life.

I have tried and failed many times to lose weight, but this time I am on a mission!! Every time I try to go and snack on something, Justin Beiber's song "baby, baby, baby, oooo!" comes into my head! lol! It seems to be working though! I didn't have this much motivation to lose weight for my wedding and I managed to lose a stone for that (I've put it all back on and more now though )so fingers crossed that this gives me the kick up the backside I need!!

I've set myself a goal to lose 2st by Christmas. It's going to be tough, I know, but I want a baby more than anything so I AM going to shift this flab!

So I guess I'm back to WTT, but hopefully back to NTNP or even TTC in the new year!! I'll still be on this thread though to see how you ladies are getting on and I have my fingers crossed for you all that you get your BFP soon!

Hi Elz - I think AF MIGHT be here too! I´m on cd 32 and noticed some spotting this morning. I hope I´m right but I´m also a little bit nervous because if I am that means we´ll be officially TTC in a week or so! It´s what we both really want but at the same time it´s quite scary.

With regards to the loosing weight, I am normally a bit of a gym freak but have decided to give it a bit of a rest (and save money) and just go running 4 nights a week to keep fit. It´s not easy at first but it really becomes quite addictive and you feel so good about yourself afterwards. You don´t get the full body workout that you would get from a couple of hours at the gym but you still burn a lot of calories. The hardest bit is getting started but it´s worth it in the end. To give you that extra motivation put "baby, baby" on your ipod and listen to it as you´re running!! Good luck!

Hi girls, I'm back - it's been a while again! By the time I get in from work and put Harrison to bed I'm pooped. AF arrived today - a day early - so this will hopefully be the last I see of her for another 9 or 10 months!! eee. Soniamillie - good luck with your weight loss, I know you'll do it. My friend has just joined Slimming World and has lost half a stone in 2 weeks which is fantastic. Are going to go back on the pill or continue NTNP and seeing what happens? Sorry I can't reply to you all invidually, though I read and catch up on everyone!!

I can't remember who was writing about what they want to buy, and the slogan vests etc - I think it was Mazndave - there are sooo many things I ''have'' to buy too I've been drooling over the gorgeous little Christmas outfits they have in the shops just now, and imagining my 6 month old in one next Christmas!! There are 7 women pergnant in my office and it makes me soo broody. Itching to try now!

Hope everyone has a splendid weekend

Hi Ladies,

ELZ - Good luck with the weight lost and TTC in the new year. Any news on the job front?

MissBroody - Good luck hun. I'm sure it will be fine with your job. They'd be on very dodgy ground if they ended your contract whilst pregnant. Try not to worry too much.

Well, I wasn't on this thread long but I got a today so I'm moving over to 1st Tri. Did not expect it to happen on our first try but hoping for a sticky bean. I will keep popping back to see how you are all getting on. Hope to see you in the Tri sections soon x x x

 

[almosthere]

Congrats Emz!!!!!!!

 

[Emz1982_in_uk]

Congrats Emz!!!!!!!

Thank u hun. And good luck for seeing AF in a few weeks. I'll be keeping an eye out for your news

 

[mazndave]

Congratulations Emz!! Hopefully the rest of us won't be too far behind you!

xx

 

[miss malteser]

Congratulations! xxx

 

[MissBroody]

Congratulations!! Fantastic news!! I sooo hope the rest of us will be just as lucky and will be with you in a matter of weeks!!

xx

 

[Emz1982_in_uk]

All of you, start trying NOW!!!! I need some company over x x

 

[Elz]

Hey Emz, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Hoping you have a happy and healthy 9 months! Thanks for the luck, I will need it in bucket loads! No news on the job front yet but an exciting opportunity to start a business could be on the cards, so fingers crossed!

AF made an official appearance Friday afternoon, and was back with a vengance! I have not missed this at all! But I'm glad because I know that things are still working down there after nearly 3 years without seeing AF at all!!

I'm still a bit tempted to NTNP whilst trying to lose weight, depending how fast the weight comes off! lol I've just got my fingers crossed for a job opportunity now which might kick start the NTNP!

Hope you've all had a good weekend so far! x
