Topic: The Chat Thread Posted: 29 January 2010 at 8:45am |
The last thing I want my bfp to do is bring hurt to anyone so on advice I thought I would start this thread.
A thread where those who are TTC and those who have been blessed with a bfp can come together and natter about anything....
Where those who are trying and those who have conceived and travelled the journey together can continue to their journeys together, even if on different paths, without fear of upsetting each other.
It maybe that nobody wants to chat in here but I figure it would be nice to have an option and then those who are "down" on TTC dont have to read anything about baby gear or pregnancy development or be confronted with scans they were not expecting.
This is in no way intended to be spiteful, merely taking on board the feelings of others (mine included). I may be pregnant at the moment but the reality of mc is ever present and while I am in the land of limbo I would still like the support of the TTC buddies!
Hopefully I am not chatting away to myself all day!

I'm sure you wont be talking to yourself Mel, I completely understand not wanting to leave the security of the TTC thread.
Lisa I have been so tempted to test early this month too with all the BFP's coming up it's so easy to get caught up in all the excitement, so far I have managed to resist.

Gosh your doing well Didi... I am pretending I am 14DPO but tbh I think I am actually on 10DPO....
Yup BK did my other discover at 4am.. I dont know why as my 2mu alwasy gives a better test result for some reason!!!! So it was uber faint.. less than yesterday afternoons test so of course I started freaking out.
I did another IC about 8am and it was the darkest IC yet so will just keeping doing them until I get my last lot of bloods back next week and then will do a discover for keepsies next week too.
My tooth isnt hurting anymore but my ear is... think it was a good idea starting the AB 's as I think the infection is spreading

I think this is a great idea Mel. I was uncomfortable chatting about pregnancy and baby stuff in the charting thread because if it were me still in there without a BFP I think i'd be quite emotional. At the same time though, I don't want to leave this place incase it all falls through in a week.

I have never yet had a positive POAS test- all of my pregnancies have been confirmed through blood tests. Though the first one the nurse did make me POAS first, I just never got to see that. She just told me I was pregnant (hesitantly I may add, and then asked me if this was a good thing- guess that's what you get when you go to the uni medical center and look 22yrs as opposed to 30yrs).

lol LA, I got asked whether having a -ive test was a good or bad thing when I first went to my GP after a late AF when we first started TTC...
lol Mel.. at least I have plenty of tests to test with if I so wish to... no matter where I am in my cycle!
My 'keeps' bfp was the quickcard one I did the day after my first bfp... was a freebie I picked up at the birthing unit when my sister had #3 in June that year (tested Oct 2nd) and it was just the right size to put in my scrapbook!

That is such a cute idea Mel. A little "keeps" box. Except i've got nothing to keeps lol.
I will do a scrapbook but wont start that until 12wks I don't think. I can start with the ideas and pictures but not correlate them until all things are certain. You will have to show me yours BK when I come up to go shopping at some stage. DH has told me no more shopping this week haha.

Hi Mel a little box is a good idea for all those speaial things.
Just wanted to say you're a lovely person and I agree that no one ever intends feelings to get hurt but it just happens unintetionally. TTC is an emotion journey for everyone here. I'm still here to support you and am so incredily glad you finally got your BFP! I am very sad that some of the joy was taken away yesterday because of all the other stuff going on.
Maybe we should catch up for another coffee some day soon?

LOL Bosta, another coffee date would be nice!
Heaf when I was TTC Jake the chart thread was just that.. charting. We pretty much nattered about everything else in the W2O or 2WW threads... these days those 2 are pretty quiet but the chart thread is the chatty one.
I think this way for those of us who like talk about rubbish of any kind we can do it here and anyone coming in here knows that anything goes so if you are feeling a bit down probably not the best thread to be in.
