TTC 2012 Group Year of the ball, Year of the bump

taryn im going 2 cape town next week thursday the 15th.. as 2 when ill be back my flight is 4 the 11th of august but we will see if i come back or file 4 divorce or what. andy i totally agree with what you said yesterday and didnt take it the wrong way. the sad thing is that he keeps saying i know where the door is and i can go if i want. he says that because he thinks i dont have the guts 2 do it. the one day i packed my bags and was ready 2 go but he refused 2 let me take my son and begged me 2 stay saying he didnt want me 2 leave and at the time was angry. he said it again the other day and i thought just you wait and see.

wow its so quiet in here...

i tested on Monday and definite negative and was only going to test again CD45. so 12 days to go!!
Dont want to keep POAS at the moment since we werent really trying and since he was pulling out (tmi) I also doubt I am pregnant. and since he didnt pull out on Sunday, I cant really test for 2 weeks anyway. Should of started charting last month so I know what's going on with my body

Meags - have you tested again recently??

ok yay! so now I dont have to feel so guilty about pushing him

I am going to tell him tonight I think. I hope he doesnt freak out and change his mind!

ladies my tummy is so uncomfortable
it has been REALLY bloated since Sunday and i thought it was from unhealthy eating over the weekend but it just isnt going down. It is really round and I have so much gas (sorry tmi)

what can i do??

Meags I haven't commented at all on your whole Should-We-Wait or Should-We-Do-It TTC issue only because I've never been in your position so I can't really comment. In my case C was the one who wanted a baby and I wanted to wait until we had enough money and could afford a baby and until we were married ( yes I'm TTC and not married girls). But when I really sat down and talked it over with the people closest to me and I realised that you will never have enough money, never be settled enough, and never be able to really afford a baby. It's like you said, a baby is a blessing and when it's there, you will do anything and everything in your power to give it what it needs and to make it happy. I mean how many women are there out there who are still kids when they get pregnant, or get pregnant on a one night stand or are divorced and they still seem to make it work. Yes, maybe it's a struggle for some of them, but they still make it work. So I decided to go off the pill in December 08 and here we are STILL trying to fall pregnant.

So what am I trying to say? Take advantage of him feeling sorry for you and turn on the waterworks again if it works with him. It's not so say you'll fall pregnant in the first month of trying. And it's not say you'll take as long to fall pregnant as me. Just don't overrun him with all the info and data and ovulation dates and OPK's and POAS. Do your thing on your own time, and if he asks tell him about it, but if he doesn't, don't get upset. The cliche everybody always uses is actually quite true... It will happen when it's supposed to.

And it can't be that bad moving or settling in when you're pregnant right. If you're up for it, then go for it.

Phew, sorry about that long rant.

Morning ladies,

Taryn, Im still stoked about your bfp, its so great!

How are all the other ladies? Sorry for those with AF (except for laliek - woohoo!!) and hope the other girls ready for bd work your asses off!!

Haven't read the thread on c-sec vs natural, will be quite funny. I remember on Pampers there was the same thread and it did become very bitchy, mind you, most of pampers threads became like that.

Have a wonderful day lovely ladies!!!
