I love the bun in oven idea!!! I think we might do that with DH parents! We have not told anyone yet! Only one work colleague of mine knows but only because I needed her to do a x-Ray for me! I'm nervous about too many ppl knowing! Eek! Works going to be difficult tho.

cc That is if I can keep quiet that long, I told everyone as soon as we got our BFP and it really helped having them all on the end of the phone when I mc’d so will be telling everyone early again but would be great if I can keep quiet until I see them! If we’ re not lucky this month then I would be due to test while we are down there next month. No idea what my plan would be! I tested on my own last time and rang DP in tears really excited but wish I had told him face to face so will make sure I do that this time.

Hayley I don’t mind seeing BFNs so will just keep testing now as I bought 30 ICs Grin I forgot my trainers so hoping sports day is cancelled or will be doing it bare foot and will prob slip in a puddle! You won’t have any symptoms just yet, keeping everything crossed for you (even legs Wink)

ccapplin1 · 26/06/2015 09:34

I've already got my reveal planned Blush

If I get my bfp this month first scan will fall shortly after my sister gives birth. I want to get a "I'm going to be a big cousin" baby grow and secretly change baby into it when I go stay with herSmile

ccapplin1 · 26/06/2015 09:32

night something like this?

Grin

I read online hayley that starting a really good book in the tww can help distract from symptom spotting... can't say it worked for me but might be worth a try?

How you know it's a really good book before you read it though I have no idea Grin

hayleycookie · 26/06/2015 09:23

Best of luck for today Miss

Sorry I was late on the chart Dizzy but yay for good news!! Fx for this months bfp!

Night Great thinking on getting a scan in the UK before going away! Will put your mind at ease so you can enjoy your break :) Let us know how it goes

Mummy Sorry for BFN but it is early so there's plenty of time! Hope AF stays away for you. Fx! And good luck for the mummy race if your sports day isn't cancelled. Are you going to hold off poas until due day now?

Wish I got my sleeping bras from Mothercare when I had DS. Very comfy and they are nursing bras too so you will be able to use them for a fair while. Nausea I believe hits around 6-8 weeks and can continue all the way through! I had it for 18 weeks!! It's apparently a good sign though :)

Nothing going on here :( No symptoms of Af or of potential Bfp! In actual Limbo right now waiting for a sign of either...but hopefully the latter! 1 week tomorrow until I can pee on something

nightandthelight · 26/06/2015 09:22

I sent my best friends a picture of the pregnancy test. DH told the vicar. Haven't told any family yet and not sure how to! Any ideas most welcome :)

ccapplin1 · 26/06/2015 09:21

That would be great mummy! If you get your bfp you'll have plenty of time to plan the big reveal Grin

Those with their bfps already - have you told anyone yet? Any creative ways of doing it? Or those waiting bfps, got plans for a big reveal?

nightandthelight · 26/06/2015 09:13

wish I just did a Google search of my area and the only one to come up was ultrasound direct. There is also care, spire etc so worth checking those in your area. I booked it all online was really simple :)

Mummyofonesofar · 26/06/2015 09:06

wish I think all of my old ones came from Mothercare. You need something more comfy than a sports bra, they will do perfectly. Plus if you are planning to feed then they do nursing ones that will see you right through.

cc Only a few days and I will know either way! Would be nice as I live 300 miles from my family but we are visiting them next month so would be so fantastic to break the news face to face Grin

wish1406 · 26/06/2015 08:58

mummy where is the best place for buying sleep bras? My sport bra is a bit bulky and squashes them!
dizzy I'm all good thanks, nervous as is everyone in this 12 week period. Time is going sooooo slow! This is worse than the tww! Twelve week wait! Aaagh! Just desperate to get to scan day for the reassurance!
night hope the scan goes well tomorrow! How do u book an early scan? I know it's private but no idea about these things. I would really like one to stop all my worrying!
All those who will POAS over weekend, GOOD LUCK! Hope you get your BFP's! Smile

Thanks miss! All my fingers and toes are crossed for you today!

ccapplin1 · 26/06/2015 08:50

Only a few days then Mummy.

Happy holidays night. Hopefully a nice break will help with the exhaustion. Smile

MissMartin10 · 26/06/2015 08:49

goodluck night Smile x

nightandthelight · 26/06/2015 08:45

Thanks mummy :) sucks about sports day! Hope the sun comes out quickly for you.

Mummyofonesofar · 26/06/2015 08:42

*happy holiday!

Mummyofonesofar · 26/06/2015 08:41

cc AF isn't due til Tuesday.

night oh right I see, have a holiday holiday in Spain! It's tipping it down here and DS was meant to be having sports day. Got a feeling it will be cancelled...

nightandthelight · 26/06/2015 08:39

T'is indeed private mummy :) Going to Spain next week and I don't feel confident to leave the country and go somewhere where I won't have access to a midwife/GP without first knowing that everything is ok. I have been extrememly fortunate in that there have been no indications that anything is wrong I just want the reassurance before I leave the NHS behind for a week!

ccapplin1 · 26/06/2015 08:32

Morning all!

Good luck today Miss hope it all goes well for you.

I used to get bleeding after sex Rose but was unrelated to ovulation. Turned out to be an ectropion (what my doctor described as a bumpy cervix haha). The treatment for that isn't fun.

I've been OPKing so DTD days 2, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14 (and planning today too which will be 16) and ovulated day 13. So kinda every other day, except for earlier in the cycle, but that was more for fun than anything.

Sorry about the bfn mummy when is AF due?

Mummyofonesofar · 26/06/2015 08:27

night is that a private one? Why are you having an early scan?

nightandthelight · 26/06/2015 08:26

Good luck today miss! My early scan is tomorrow

I have a lot of nausea wish but no actual sickness. My worst symptom though is utter exhaustion all the time. I can't remember the last time I had energy :(

Mummyofonesofar · 26/06/2015 08:22

Hayley yes this is my first ov since mc, I bleed for 6 days and then spotted for another 6 days, eventually ov’d on CD 24 and today I am 9DPO.

Welcome Lovelyjubbly My DS is 7 in a couple of months and this will be DPs first too. Sorry for your mc xx

Rose sorry I never bleed after ov so can’t help there! We did when we could, normally we have a better plan but what with it being the wtf cycle we just did what we could!

Good luck for your scan today MissMartin FX the bleeds were nothing x

wish find some comfy sleep bras for bed time, you will then use them until you stop breastfeeding!

BFN today but it is too early, will test daily now I think, had some funny crampy feelings this morning though so not sure what that is about, hope AF isn't coming Sad

DizzyMerry · 25/06/2015 23:08

Cross posts wish Grin

DizzyMerry · 25/06/2015 23:08

How are you feeling Wish?

I posted my chart on the other bus for advice and it appears I ovulated on cd8. I'm not too bothered about early ov as I had an anovulatory cycle last month. I'm relieved now! The reason FF didn't confirm ov was because it likes to have 6 days of temps before ov and I didn't temp on day 7 and day 3. I guessed a temp for cd7 and it confirmed ov at cd8.

wish1406 · 25/06/2015 23:04

*tomorrow (stupid phone!!!)
Any one feeling sick yet? I have started getting very picky with my food and have had bad guts all week (tmi) no actual full on nausea yet tho. Dreading that! I'm so sore in the boobs that it's agony when I take my bra off... Have resorted to wearing a sport bra in bed! And this goes on for how long?!...
