no worries hun. Im feeling ok, a little bored with the tww already but i guess i will hang in there.
Im not going to test unless AF is late (this will be a first for me) .
I may be having my friends pregnant 18yo daughter coming to stay with us for 5 months and i dont know how im going to be able to deal with it all, in a way i want her too, because then i know she will be looked after, i worry about her so much. But it would be so much easier if i were pregnant. iykwim
hugs

treelo - can totally understand how you will find having your friend's daughter living with you. Must be so hard for you having endured loss.
Sending sticky vibes your way and hoping that you get your BFP this cycle!
Carla - as for me well DH and I will just keep trying. I was disappointed the other day, quite p**ssed off at the world actually; but snapped out of it after DH said to me "honey we can try again next month, it doesnt matter". I got so emotional though as I truly believed that October would be the lucky month but not to be obviously.
Ahh well..... already thinking ahead to this cycle, going to make a conscious effort to get more BD in to increase our chances! BD every 2nd day as they say once AF has stopped which hopefully should be tomorrow :pray: FF has me to O again on the 30th so thought if we do that then we at least have all bases covered hehe Swim ya little buggers swim :fertilise: :lol:
Just an update - in a way I'm hoping that this is not my month for falling pg (as hard as it is for me to say that). I went to Dr yesterday pm as I've been having heaps of GI upset & pain since my DH & I went to Africa in April, & Dr seems to think I may have a 'bug' or infection of somekind - therefore it's possible I will need to go on strong course of ABs after results get back, and I'd hate to think what the impact of ABs would be on an early pregnancy. Anyone know?
Kaib - im sure there could be something you would be able to take to clear your symptoms up. If I was you I would be taking no risk and assuming you are PG to be on the safe side..... then at least for your own peace of mind you know you havent done anything that will cause the baby any harm if you are pregnant.
Thats just my opinion anyways! :) Good luck!
Sasha, thanks for that. Yep, I agree about taking it safe. DH & I are going away for a week next week, so I won't even have a chance to get results back & then start taking ABs until we get back. By that time AF will or won't have shown, so I'll know either way. Thanks though for the advice!
Hey Carla - how are you going hun? Did you have your BT done yesterday?
Please let me know how you went :)
Hello everyone - i guess im officially in the TWW now!
its going to be a loooooooooong wait!
HJ - yep i hear ya !!!! a lonnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg wait.
Treelo - at least you are half way - thats gotta be a good feeling! i have just entered into it! haha - and im not liking my chances!
ops - sorry - your not quite half way - doh what was i thinking! but your almost there! hehehe
Arrgghh - the TWW sucks (can I say that?).
I have had brownish blood on tp for last 24 hours, along with AF type cramps. This is my first month of taking vitex; I'm just hoping that the vitex hasn't stuffed up my 28 day cycle by bringing AF forward. I guess there's one good thing about the vitex though, I sure haven't had the usual sore boobs that I get the week leading up to AF, so it must be doing it's job somehow. I'm heading to Sydney for a week with DH, so my testing date is this Thursday, but I'm thinking I won't bother taking HPTs with me. I look forward to catching up with everyone in a week - from memory there's a few of us testing this week - Acria, Starrysky, anyone else?
Hey ladies, I'm out of here. Got my BFP this morning. I hope you all get yours soon.
satya - wow your chart looks amazing! Congrats!
HJ, Kaib, Treelo - GL for the 2WW; hoping you all your bfp this month!
Sending each of you sticky vibes!
Satya - thats awesome - congrats!
Sasha - thanks for the sticky vibes - im going to need all that i can get :) - i see you havent got long until the big O day on your ticker!
Arrghh - don't press 'escape' accidentally when typing your entry, as it wipes your entry as I've just discovered!
Sasha - thanks so much for your best wishes. I caved in this morning & did HPT with FMU at 4.45 am - I promised myself that I wouldn't do it until AF due, but because we're going away, I just wanted to take a shot at it. Because it was dark at the time & wanted to go back to bed, I didn't wait the recommended 5 minutes out to see results. But when I went back a couple hours later to throw the test away, there's a very faint second pink line there. I showed it to DH & he also agrees there's a line, but given I only discovered it a few hours later, we're trying to be 'cautious'! I'm still spotting on tp, and temps are still down for third day in a row, so I'm really not convinced yet that AF isn't on her way. AF officially due on Thursday. DH & I are leaving early in am for Sydney, so I'll give it another go before we fly out with FMU - fingers crossed! But I know it's still early days, so again, being cautious!
Will be crossing my fingers & toes for BFPs all around this week! Will catch up when I get back.
Hey Kaib, yep it's testing this week for me. I'm having a good feeling about this. My nipples and breasts have been getting progressively sorer for a few days now, and I'm now actually in my maternity bra from last time, as it's the only bra that doesn't hurt. I've also been very thirsty, and needing to pee a lot more, and my nose has had bloody mucus every time I blow lately - all things that happened last time. Oh, and I've been completely exhausted. Cannot get by without a 5pm nap.
Had a small worry this morning at 4am when I got up to pee..there was a tiny bit of pink when I wiped, and I panicked, thinking maybe AF was coming and I'm all wrong. But I haven't really had any cramps, and since I'm 10-11DPO, I figure it could be implantation.
Of course I could be completely wrong, but I'm feeling positive right now. Testing day will be Wednesday..trying very very hard to hold on.
Also, was at a wedding reception last night, and got talking to the wife of one of the guys Luke plays football with, and she's a midwife. We were talking about homebirths, and how I had wanted one, but can't afford a private midwife, and she said 'Well, as soon as you get pregnant, give me a call and I'll come and be your midwife!' So I'm over the moon about that. She's fully supportive of homebirths and thinks they're the best way to birth, provided mother and baby are both healthy and not in distress, and she's so easy to talk to and really udnerstanding, so that's some fantastic news for us..if we're lucky this month! Please please!
Kaib your brownish blood has come at the same time as my pink, just about..hopefully implantation for both of us. Thinking of you.
Satya - Huge congratulations! So glad to see everything's back on track for you :)
Sasha - good idea about just temping and charting till O, the less stress, the better. They always say when you stop thinking about it all the time, it happens. Typical.
HJ - thinking of you, been following how you've been going, hope you're doing well.
Treelo - hope you're doing well also. Do you know whether your friend's daughter is moving in with you yet?
Positive vibes all around. July is a lovely month! ;) (If I am pg, EDD with be July 2, our wedding anniversary!)

ho hum ho hum.....i just want to test NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! somehow i dont think anything would show at 7dpo, even if i O'd early....
treelo
evening all.
kaib - have fun in Sydney! Best of luck for testing. At least your mind will be pre-occupied whilst you are away. As hard as it is you should wait till Thursday I reckon to do another test; that way at least if you are PG you will get much stronger lines... fingers crossed for you hon!
Treelo - try and hang out a few more days hon; i know its hard but 7 dpo is still quite early. I would wait until at least 11dpo so you are not disappointed
Acria - good to hear you have found a midwife. Now we just need to keep :pray: for your bfp this month. I will be in a similar situation july is my birthday and if I fall this cycle I will be due about the 22nd (a week before my 30th birthday); would be awesome couldnt ask for a better birthday present! Fingers crossed for the both of us!
