Leanne, I'm so sorry to hear that this bubba wasn't a sticky one.
Best of luck to you and Selena for your next try.

It's TWW time again for my partner and I. We had our insemination yesterday, and have a blood test on the 3rd Feb.

I hope this one goes faster than the last!

Thanks DrGirl and Cath&Denise.

AF arrived yesterday so the bloodtest tomorrow is now only a formality. I'm going to take a break from TTC for a few months, I have a huge overseas holiday starting in 2 weeks, so I'll be back after Easter for the next attempt.

Hey all,

Well our second tww ended abruptly yesterday morning with a very much unwanted af

So, it's back to the F/S for us, to start a whole new wait.

We hope that everyone else is doing ok, we are sending luck your way

hey everyone,

well we've been a bit slack these last couple of weeks, so we thought we would just pop in and say g'day and see how everyone is going.

After 2 negative results we got pretty emotional (we know that in the grand scheme of things 2 tries isn't really that much but at the time it felt like it was never going happen) so, we've just had a one month break and now we are refreshed and actually really looking forward to af arriving this month, now we sound like weirdos .

Hopefully April is the month for us and for all the other POAS addicts out there (you know you are)

Question Yes i wear heavy colorados

Wow, here I am at this part of the journey and yes it IS going to be excruciating!

Since I've never been there with men my dear old B.M (best mate) is filling me in on the lovely joys of 'post sex'......ewwww!
"You just feel grotty and wet".yep.....I'm just finding that out!

It was actually a relief because I thought it was me,.."Don't tell me this is still F.M!...surlely I wouldn't be this long getting to O+ day!"

All these sorts of 'new' and strange and weird thoughts go through your head, but the MORNING AFTER......Hell my boobies hurt...like I've been punched by the wicked 13 year old during puberty! "Does this hurt!?" Remember that girls!!!! I keep checking just to make sure "yes they really do hurt it's not my imagination!" not to mention the headache, diahorrea and feeling like a bloated blimp!

B.M is convinced I'm knocked up! Well, we won't bet chuppa chups yet!!!!!!LOL

Its funny but my B.M told me to write a big long letter to my baby about my thoughts my emotions, my ALREADY cravings for Pineapple, Tropical Juice and fruit salad!Oddley I read later that Pineapple contains an enzyme that aids implantation for older women!! Far out!


Whats even weirder is that Im walking around in George St at night on my own in transit to get the next morning train out, and Im not even scared! Its like "HEY.....I've got even MORE reasons to defend my self now (well, just in case!) and I 'WEAR HEAVY COLORADOS!'.... I'd be gone by the time they got back up off the ground!.

And yes..it's SO TRUE.........I CAN'T sleep.thats why it's now 3:05 in the morning!

I am even beginning to wonder if those funny image verifications would spell out a new babies name......Now THATS warped!
