    Hey all,

    Sorry I have been MIA, been busy getting organised for Easter. We are hosting this year, so have to clean the house, tidy the garden and get food organised etc....

    Bec - Thanks for asking about me I have been using OPK's for the last three days and today it is noticeably darker (not the same colour as the control line) plus I got a tiny amount of EWCM, so I am predicting that I will O over the next few days. Hopefully DH is up for DTD - it's been a little while...!

    Hi to everyone else, gotta run again. Have a great Easter if I'm not able to get back on before then

    Hi everyone!
    Happy Easter! Started the day with a lovely chocolate easter egg!
    I've come to the conclusion that my body is playing tricks on me!! I think wanting to be pregnant triggers somethin in my brain to make me believe that my boobs are sore and I'm having cramps! Period is not due for another week, but I seem to be having these 'symptoms'. Fingers crossed for us all this month. If I am unsuccessfull, I'm about to start round 4 of Clomid. I must have taken one tablet too many in one of the cycles and i'm only left with 4 tablets to take next week. Does anyone think this will make a difference? I go to see me fertility specialist beginning of June - so thought I would just wait till then. I'm heading to Spain next week, will have to take stuff in case period arrives, pregnancy test before starting Clomid, and the Clomid -gone are the days of just packing suncream and hair straighteners!
    Good luck to everyone this month - it's been a long one!!

    Hi girls!
    Hope you all had a wonderful Easter and a good break from hecticness (if that's a word!).
    Rhi- hope the easter hosting went well. The worst thing about hosting is you have to clean up before and after the event, but the bonus is you can have a champers or two!
    Clamgee- Wow, Spain! That will be amazing! Fingers crossed for you that AF doesn't turn up.
    AFM: I am thinking I must be about to ovulate. A bit of EWCM today and crampy since yesterday. Looks like o has moved back to day 23/24 now, silly thing! Oh well. At least I can guarantee Af will be here 14 days after that (or not arrive, which would be even better!).
    Hope you are all relax and ready for the week,
    Bye,
    Bec

    Morning Ladies,

    I hope everyone had a fabulous Easter, relaxing and enjoying time with family.

    Porsche, ha ha how good would twins be? I know I’d be wrapped, GL for your 12 week scan coming up.

    Julia, hope your Easter hosting went well. And what about O’ing, did that happen over Easter also? Fingers crossed for you.

    Claudette, ha ha yes don’t you love the ‘fake’ pregnancy symptoms your body gives off. Fingers crossed they are not fake for you this month. As for taking 4 Clomids, do you think you could phone your FS and get them to send you a new script for Clomid, just tell them you have lost your old one. I’m just thinking that they probably get you to take it for 5 days for a reason, totally up to you though love. Have fun in Spain!

    Bec, Wow you really do O late don’t you? I used to O that late before my opp, but now I’m back around day 14-17.

    AFM: Currently on day 24, 8 DPO well I think so anyway. I am also sick today which I am not happy about. My big sister is getting married on the 17th of April (less than 2 weeks away) and I am her matron of honour. I am hosting her Hens party (a mad hatter’s tea party) this weekend at my house, so truly cannot afford to be sick right now.

    Anyway so my question this morning is, I have thrown up twice this morning and have put this down to being sick (don’t normally throw up when I am getting a cold). Is it possible to get morning sickness this early? Or am I doing a Claudette and just hoping that I am? He he!

    Hope everyone else is doing well. GL for those coming up to O time, and fingers crossed to the 2WWers. Some good news on this site this month would be fantastic.

    Hi Ladies

    I hope you all had a great easter break. It's back to the grind stone today grrr.

    Keli - FF hasn't put your cross hairs in yet. I would have thought it would have by now hmmm wonder what's going on?

    As for your M/S question I have no idea as mine didn't kick in until I reached 6 weeks. But I guess it is possible. FX it is! Your temps are nice an high so hopefully they stay that way.

    Hi ladies

    Keli - Oooohh a hen's party - how much fun. Hope you feel better soon so you can kick up your heels. My nausea didn't kick into week 5 (no vomiting yet thank god!), so maybe your chuck was from being sick, but you never know. My friend at work had severe m/s from pretty much the moment she conceived until the day she gave birth. GL and let's hope this is the cycle that does it for you.

    Claudette - deffers get some more clomid so you can finish your 5 day course - god knows what those hormones will do to you if you don't take them as prescribed. I remember when I was in Spain you could buy antibiotics without a script, so maybe you can buy clomid over there from the pharmacy.

    Bec - GL with your 2ww - I hope this time your baby dance brings you a baby.

    Hi everyone!

    I hope your Easter was great. Mine was, although a bit hectic with hosting!

    Claudette - I would get another script too. I have to take the five tablets, so it must be a standard prescription thing to do on Clomid? Have an awesome time in Spain - so jealous! We wanted to go to Spain when we were in Europe but couldn't fit it all in!

    Bec - I definately had a few wines, which made me relax a bit! GL catching that egg!

    Keli - I never had m/s when pg but my gf was throwing up straight away, so it could very much be a sign. I wouldn't think a common cold would make you throw up. Fingers crossed. When will you test?

    Porsche - Hope you are well

    AFM - OPK showed a + on CD 15, so I take it that I am officially in the tww (CD 17). I won't test until CD 29, so have about two weeks to wait - hope it flies by ;P

    Have a great week all

    Hi girls!
    Keli- I hope that it is moring sickness! I as told that if you are sick early on, one of those early HPT will show a positive too, becasue the hormone levels will be high. Good luck any way.
    Julia- I think I am o'ing either yesterday or today, so I'm also 2WWing as of today ish.
    ahurani- so sorry about not o'ing. Don't worry though, chances are they'll just up your does and it will help. I didn't o on 50mg one month, so they uped it to 100mg. Not sure if your PCOS, but apparently clomid response can be inconsistent from month to month if you are. GL!
    Porshe- hope you are travelling well and not feeling too rotton with m/s. I often dream that I have twins and triplets! Don't know why, but DH is a bit worried! One baby would be plenty!
    AFM- pretty sure oing is occurring as I type (figuratively speaking!), so I'm hoping that the excessive DTD will be enough. We're going for the every day thing too. So much for not being in mood...DH doesn't know what hit him! rofl

    any who, best be off. I love holidays, but I feel bad if DS and I are still in our PJ's when DH comes home, so I better go and shower!
