Hellobee Boards

@strawberrybee: I see it too! Yay! Hopefully tomorrow you get something more definitive. This thread is preggo-liscious right now. That's good news for @chibee and @mrssquirreld.

@StrawberryBee: It the risk of sounding like Jojogirl: Do it! Do it! Do It (I'm chanting like an English football hooligan by the way!!!);

@strawberrybee: i definitely see it in the second picture - do you have a wondfo you could test with? They are super super sensitive from what I've read! If not I wish I could send you one real quick I have a ton! haha

@Cherrybee: I will stop by Target tonight and pick up more :).

@chibee: no wondfo's. I guess I'll just have to be patient XD!

@.twist.: Thanks!!! I really really hope this is real!

Uhm, you guys?....

Magic baby dust indeed!!!!!!!!

@Jennimac: thanks!

@StrawberryBee: Oh yeah, we can! I worked out the EDD (if everything goes well etc) using an online calculator and got 31/7/13. What would yours be??

@marionberry: Hello, lovely. How are you?

@StrawberryBee: Ahh! I'm the other way - August 2nd off O date and July 28th off last LMP date. So I've settled half way in between until they tell me otherwise! We really are due date twins! Let us know what your DH says when he wakes up - I've wake him up myself!!!

Join the July due date thread!!!

@StrawberryBee: We're going to have to tell friends and family around Christmas time (we'll be 9 weeks) because we have the same rituals every year and it will be so weird for me not to be drinking (I love wine!) on Christmas day and New Years. I'm going to pay for a private scan the week before (all being well) just to make sure it's all okay in there before we share the news. We'll just have to remind people that it's very early days and keep a record of who we've told in case we need to revoke the news.....

@StrawberryBee: What did he do/say?!! Was he excited?!!

@StrawberryBee: Aaw!!!! He called you momma!! Squee!!!

@Cherrybee: @Mrs squirreld: hee, yeah, he's good like that :).

Wild horses couldn't drag me away!

@strawberrybee: omg i knew it! congratulations! so happy for you!!!!!

@mrssquirreld: totally understand about NTNP - i'm in the same place. I put too much pressure on myself and the process and I needed to take a step back from it.

@marionberry: i'm so sorry about the temp drop. i am so annoyed for you on your behalf on the impending AF.

so guys, DH has dropped a total bomb on me this evening. He has been um, having trouble finishing during BD ever since we started TTC. He said he was afraid/embarrassed to tell me. Of course I was extremely angry because here I was going around the last 3 cycles wondering if it had taken, while all the time he knew there was no chance. We have had issues throughout this whole TTC thing w/him being not completely on board. This thought never crossed my mind - he has NEVER had this type of problem in all the time I've known him, and I know it is a very mental thing - he gets very into his head, and it was making him nervous. So, what I took away from this was, that we have never truly been through a real cycle of TTC even. We talked for a very long time and finally, we are both on the same page. I am still going to continue to NTNP to take the pressure off the both of us, but I am now more hopeful than before, that it may actually work. Since, you know, there will be sperm to count on. I know this sounds ridiculous and we sound ridiculous but I see it as a positive thing. DH and i are finally totally honest, totally on the same page.

@marionberry: *hugs*

@Mrs squirreld: I know what you mean about the depression. I don't think anyone can really understand the highs and lows unless they've been in it. NTNP sounds like a good way to let things relax a bit. Good luck!

@chibee: oh my...! Glad to hear you and your DH worked things out, but what a rough thing to hear. Good luck with NTNP!

We had a pretty rough weekend with the step kids (son has anger issues that his mother refuses to address, and my stepdaughter is in the throes of adolescence ) so I'm looking forward to a calmer week and time to process. I wish I'd start getting some symptoms so that I had some confirmation something's really happening inside!

@marionberry @cherrybee @mrssquirreld @strawberrybee i was PISSED i mean i couldn't believe he watched me cry through the end of 3 tww's, knowing full well i had no hope. it was so ridiculous to me, he doesn't ever have problem getting started, but apparently never finished - he said maybe 2-3 times. in the last THREE MONTHS he was able to finish. can you imagine? after i got over the initial shock and anger, i also felt kind of... relieved. I was really getting crazy that I was timing things right the last couple months and it wasn't working.. so since we have never truly tried maybe those weren't failures, just.. i don't know what they are but now i have this renewed hope. I do feel better now that we have aired it all out, and we can try again. I know it was just in his head and it's not an actual physical problem, so I'm not too worried about it going forward. so with that... how's everyone else doing??

@MrsCastro: Thank you! I'm so nervous and trying not to get too excited but it's hard - because it's so exciting!

@chibee: It's hard because it means so much. Everything that matters is hard - love, family - it's all a challenge. It's also because it's so out of your hands - you want it so much but it take two people to generate at tiny chance of something happenning, Cue frustration!

I think you should be super seductive this weekend. It's still NTNP (kinda) - just don't mention to your DH that you used an OPK (and try not to get upset if he's not up for it - again, harder said that done). It's only "trying" if you schedule BDing, seducing at the right time is acceptable, right?!

As for me - I'm good, thanks. I'm going to hit 4 weeks tomorrow so it's still so, so early. The days are going really slowly!! I did another digital this morning and the conception indicator moved from 1-2 weeks to 2-3 weeks, which made me dance around thanking God! My hormone is increasing!!! At this point last pregnancy, I got a negative test, which I thought was a broken test (but I bled 2 days later so it wasn't). I've also booked myself into a private clinic for a scan at 7wks 2 days. I'm so nervous - but also really excited: I hope we see a heartbeat. Keep keeping everything crossed for me!!!
