Chart Stalkers April 2008

[Loola]

Ooh good luck Chill! Ive never noticed that I get more tired around ovulation, I certainly dont get any more energy though!

Im so knackered today, I hope that is a good sign. My boobs seem to be getting less painful. Im driving myself insane here. My poor DH2B has been very down about the baby thing today, he found an old friend on Facebook, and he has 2 kids. It seems he is finally seeing how I feel, but its nice to be able to reassure him that it wil happen for us one day. I havent told him about any of my symptoms as I dont want to get his hopes up. I keep reminding myself of last August, I had every symptom under the sun, like I do now, I even had a pulling feeling in my abdomen, I must admit I was convinced I was pregnant, but my tests came back BFN and AF arrived as normal. This could well happen again. That was our 4th month of TTC and I had got it in my head that it was only going to take 4 months to conceive, so when August came I must have convinced myself, and the symptoms were all psychological. I wonder if the flurry of BFPs on the forum and the fact that we are into our 12th month now is making me feel the way I am, or is it real?

Loola - I didnt tell my DH about my extra sore BBs this month and then when I did, he was a bit upset and then persuaded me to test...and look what happened!

I really hope this is your month We need your chit-chat over in 1st tri! x

 

[Loola]

Thanks Rach! Look how hysterical I am already, when I do get the elusive BFP ill take over 1st Tri with my millions of questions and worrying! Oh I really want this week to hurry up! Im so impatient!

 

[rach]

chill i was the same this month hun thought i was coming down with something felt so tired and it lasted for days
you all better hurry up and get those bfps cos im refusing to go over on my own

loola hun i so hope this is your month i know what you mean about the symptoms though when ttc in the past there was times when i was absolutely certain i was pg and was so upset when af arrived hope all these symptoms are not psychological for you i need someone to come over to 1st tri with me

hi sally hun how are you feeling?

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[reallyoldmum]

Loola thats one fine chart you have there lady fingers crossed for you this month x x x

Kitty where are you? Hope all is OK and DH is better.

Well Han wont find out where she is going to be working until she sends her contract back - she was also successful with First Choice (she had 2 interviews last week) and she has decided to go with them as they have the nicer uniform!! They also like you to do 6 months in resort and then 6 months as an airhostess over the winter in your first year and she really fancies doing that.... We are so proud of her - she finishes her degree on the 20th May and will fly out on the 21st Definately going to look into booking a holiday so we can be with her for her 21st birthday - I cant believe it by the time I was her age I had a house and her!! No regrets but I am a little envious of her getting out there and really enjoying life

 

[rach]

roma thats fantastic news hun what a great opportunity bet you are so proud i know i would be if it was one of mine i would be over the moon xxxxx

loola chart is looking fab hun how you feeling? xxxxxx

chill nice rise you got going on there hun xxxxxx

everyone else hope your all ok xxxxxx

well im still not believing lol still doing my temp which has gone down slightly last 2 days but on the otherhand did another cheapie test this morning and my lines are a lot stronger than they were on monday so im assuming thats good news dont think il believe till af is missed xxxxxxxx

 

[Loola]

ROM - Thats fantastic news!! She must be bloody brilliant to be wanted by 2 Company's! She sounds like a girl after my own heart, choosing the one with the better uniform

How is everyone today? And where is Kitty?!! I really hope she is ok

My back is aching and my boobs are still soreish, Ive rubbed them so much now I cant tell whether its the rubbing thats making them hurt. Ill probably get caught rubbing them in public soon. DH2B caught me rubbing them whilst watching TV last night, I didnt even realise I was doing. He now thinks I get off on Air Crash Investigations.

 

[reallyoldmum]

Rach step away from the thermometer - advice on FF says do not temp once you know you are pregnant. You have had a + digi and + line tests so now stop!!!!! If you dont you are going to stress yourself out and you and baby dont need that right now. OK lecture over and by the way your temp has hardly dropped

Loola when I was in the tww back in sept/oct I couldnt work out whether my boobies hurt because I was squeezing them or whether I was squeezing them because they hurt!!

 

[Loola]

One of our work fish, Ferris has just died. He was fine yesterday He was my fish aswell! I bought him to be a friend to another fish. We still have 2 left, Lee and Flipper that were saved from an eviction, bless em.

 

[rach]

rom what if i do 1 at a time lol i will put thermometer away now but not the tests lol but will try and not do 1 every day maybe every other just till af is missed xxxxx

loola so sorry about your fish hun xxxxx

gosh its so quiet in here now everyone has flown the nest i just been having a look over in 1st tri and i decided im still not going
i know it doesnt make sense but i really dont feel like i belong over there yet xxxxxxx

 

[Loola]

Awww Rach! I dont want you to go anyway!! It is very quiet around here. I can hear echos. Im sure you can dip your toes in 1st tri though and still hang around in here too

 

[reallyoldmum]

Rach you can do a 2 step programme if you like to be honest I think stopping temping is the most important it will just stress you out x x xx

Loola poor fish At least he had a nice life with you

I know its so so quiet here - I checked the charts this morning and most of them havent been updated so I think there is only about 5 of us still actively charting at the moment...... Rach you can stay as long as you like honey but you do so deserve to be in first Tri too

 

[Chill]

thanks Rach, although there was no BD action last night, so I don't know if we'll have caught it this month. Might be just as well. I usually feel ovulation just on one side. This month I felt it on both twins

I think you should stop temping too, though I don't know if I would take my own advice, I usually don't

ROM, that's great for DD, how exciting. And you can go visit, sweet.

Loola - at random boob rubbing. So many signs and your chart looks fab, everything crossed for you.

everyone else.

Looks like I am in the 2ww now. At least there's a few days reprieve before I start looking for symptoms.

 

[Loola]

Best of luck Chill!! Twins would be fab!! I think Id be quite chuffed thoguh absolutely terrified to have twins. This sounds mental but I always like to have 2 cats, so they have a friend. Id kinda like 2 babies at the same time. Im just being greedy though arent i! One would be sufficient!

 

[Chill]

I know what you mean Loola, I kinda like the idea of twins too. Seems very efficient. I'd like 2 but if it's taking this long for 1 I may run out of time. And my Aunty had twins so it's in the family a wee bit.

But hey, one would be more than nice! Here's hopin

 

[reallyoldmum]

I'd love twins I doubt we would go through all this again if we were able to conceive so it would be a great way for a little one not to feel like an only child..... Having said that one would be nice!!

 

[rach]

ooh twins how fab would that be not for me though lol 1 will be just fine thankyou very much good luck chill xxxxxx

hey girls forgot to tell you yesterday
when i was pg with christopher a lady came into the shop where i work came straight up to me and said your having a boy and dont worry everything will be fine this time she didnt know we had only lost Jamie a few months before anyway to cut a long story short she came in again yesterday and of course ive not told anyone in work yet
she came right up to the till and asked me how the baby was so i said hes lovely thankyou and she smiled at me and asked was i pg and i went red and sort of ignored the question then she said i see a baby girl around you eat pleanty of fish at which i laughed and then she went

thank goodness i dont think anyone i work with was close enough to hear anything xxxxx

 

[reallyoldmum]

that just made the hairs on my arms stick up Rach!!

 

[Loola]

Wow!! She sounds amazing! Send her to me!

 

[choklatemunky]

Rach
i think you should def venture into first tri - you can still check on everyone in here
