Not this month girls!

[Roxy76]

Hey girls!!


Well my gorgeous friend (NOT LOL) AF arrived today!


Surprisingly I am not too sad! I am kinda relieved the 2ww is over and I just know!!! I just got so caught up in it all!!!! that I feel quite relaxed now! It is only the 1st month TTC and I feel more ready to give it another go now that I have been through this experience. Knowing what to expect and how it feels in the 2ww has made me feel better than i thought I would. If that makes sense?


I got to complete a whole chart on Fertility Friend and just knowing that I ovulated when i predicted, that the maybe baby timed in with that and that I got my AF after the 30 days exactly - shows that my cycles seem normal, on track and I am ovulating - so that is a good thing huh!


My DF & I are so excited to have our own little bub and we know it will happen when it is meant to be :D


He already has two children (DD11 & DS8) and the kids live with us full time, only seeing their mum once (sometimes twice a year) and we are the best family!!! :hugs: They see me as their mum also and it feels really good. Their biological mum and us all get on well and she supports everything we do which really helps!!

At first discussions couple of years ago, DF wasn't so sure about starting a family again. But as time went on we just knew that we wanted to bring a bub into our wonderful family - we all have so much love to give and feel ready to give it. And over the last month of TTC it made it so much more real and DF this week has been so amazing, so cute and he is excited about it all now and I think that's also helping me relax about it all, knowing we both want this as much as each other! :kiss:Man I love that guy!!!


Our 5 year anniversary is this Friday, so this would have been great timing if was pregnant - but there is always next month! And of course DF is not complaining cheeky bugger he is! LOL He rocks my world and the best thing is that he says that about me too!! Yes it is THAT good!! lol I am a very lucky girl!


So now that this 2ww is over I am relieved and relaxed and ready to try again! I have learned not to scrutinize every symptom I feel, not to adapt every thing I read to me and to take it as it comes. Oh and also to NOT test till AF is due so I can save money!!! haha If I waited this time I would not have had to use any tests!! Plus with my AF always arriving on time, I will know when I am late!!


Congrats to all the new little bubhub bubba's growing in the tums!! Good luck & baby dust to all of us TTC!

Thanks again everyone for being wonderful supportive people!!

Bring on the next month!!!! :smiliedance:

Thanks for your post, Roxy! I'm in my 2nd cycle and its sooo much easier than the 1st, im in the TWW now, and last time i was scrutinising and fretting and stressing and now im just 'meh!'

[Roxy76]

Thanks girls for your posts of support!!!

only thing annoying me is my AF pain!!!!!!!!!! lol I always get it day 1 of cycle and then that's it! then the next few days are pain free! having a great day though, spending the day with the house to myself, lying on the lounge with the laptop, watching tv with my vanilla wheat heat pack on my tummy!! Just made home made lebanese bread pizza for lunch!!! mmmmmm :smiliedance:

Hi darling!!

Good luck & I hope it all happens for you!!

DH & I started TTC last month & lo and behold AF came last week! Initially I was a little sad but DH reminded me we can just keep trying! :kiss:

I'm excited & ready for our TTC journey, however long it may take, and i've gotten a chance to research a little more on different issues so I feel a little more prepared.

Wish you well & everyone else TTC!!
