SQUARE ONE TO GRADUATES - expecting more graduates in July!

Sorry Purple, we'll crack August together xx

Oh no purple. Sorry to hear, hope you are ok xx

CD1.

Yes I got two massive spots just before my bfp!!

My bowels are moving too frequently! Used to be a regular once a day everyday.
No I'm going 3 times a day and very loose!!
Read online it's just due to hormone levels and should settle down by week 8!
I am doing light exercise everyday which is making me feel a bit better. Nausea has kicked in the last few days. I get it first thing when I wake up and then at about 5pm. Boobs have been sensitive and nipples hurting the last two days.

Did my final test today at 5 weeks. (Haven't done one for a week) and got a 3+ so feeing good about hormone levels.

Really hoping for some more BFPs soon!

Glad you are enjoying your holiday footprints.well done on keeping up with dtd.oh must be having a treat.fx for twins

I keep praying I get abfp. Will only poas on Monday. So a long weekend for me

Jem- hoping a BFP for you X

Purple- muddy runs are fantastic way to enjoy running. I've done a few of them and the slide at the end makes it all worth while.
Running def good for the bowels - helps keep them regular.

pS - it is safe to do gentle exercise that might help with the bowels. Maybe a power walk, swimming- even a gentle jog. If u fancy it though? Are u feeling any nausea yet? X

Very hot here in Greece, but awesome!
Dtd last night (had to secretly use some pre-seed as the clomid this time has made me dry. Only few days after AF too though I suppose. Few twinges in my ovaries last night after taking the clomid so hoping so much they will be getting ready.

Mimi- oh wow still nothing? Maybe u ovulated later? I started on a thread back in April and the lady there was on cd43 and got a BFP! And her due date meant she only ovulated 14 days before that. So thinks her body tried a few times to ovulate previously. Let's hope this is the case for you. Fingers crossed. X

Tee- sorry AF got you esp after seeing those pos signs and car reg.

Nim- zits sounds positive - think Ps got her BFP after having few spots?? Hope you are well otherwise X

Radders- think the lady went overboard with the Brazilian! Was more like a Hollywood but missed a bit! Lol DH was a bit shocked, but eagerly wanted the deed so worked a treat . Yes wondered if it be more sensitive if upduffed. Enjoy your hols.. X

Hope its lucky #9 for you tee

Cd41 no af

Morning all.
Any good news ladies?jem,purple???? Fingers and toes crossed

Hi all sorry I haven't been around, I'm exhausted this week. Sorry about AF tee, commiserations.

I've had a funny week since ovulation, sore boobs, loads of zits and really really tired. I'm only 7dpo so not pg symptoms, too early. Anyway I'm testing on Sunday.

Good luck Jem and waves to everyone else, I'll try and do a proper reply tomorrow.

Oh tee so sorry lovely. What a bum hole, that car reg is like a smack in the face. Sending you and hoping that it's lucky cycle 9 for you xx

Oh tee what a bummer!!massive hugs hun and hope it's lucky number 8..

You too Mimi and Purple!! x

Hey everybody,

Out and about enjoying the sunshine today, strolled over to the loo's in the park I'm in and saw 2 magpies and a car with this reg... only to discover seconds later that fuck-face AF has landed. Hello cycle 9, really wasn't expecting to meet you at the start of this journey. Please be lucky for me!
Jem do it for the both of us, I'm feeling good about you!! x

Jod glad your older dc is happy about the new baby on the way.the little one will soon change his/her mind

Morning ladies
Cd40 no af

Rooting for your bfps tee jem purple.

Safe trip footprints and radders

jem you have a busy weekend lined up .hope you will be celebrating your good news as well

Been feeling really gassy the past week.l wake up every morning with a rumbling tummy.

Good morning all,

AF due tomorrow, no symptoms of anything so far, bfn again this morning. No weight loss (or gain) since last thursday, but will keep going. Yesterday I did my first race, pretty muddy 5k in hammersmith. It was awesome, dh was there to cheer me on and film my last slide into the mud. Looking forward to another one!

I'm loving seeing the scans and news from the graduates!

And as usual fingers crossed for everyone else!

Ps, exercising is also good to keep your bowels moving!

Cd29 13 DPO

AF due tomorrow. So far no cramps, no sore boobs I'm easily moved to tears but nothing else much unusual going on.

I'm at the cricket tomorrow with my husband, dad and brother and really really hoping AF doesn't come - I'm not going to be able to hide how disappointment and upset I'll be. Also Saturday we've got a BBQ reunion with a load of uni friends as a kind of last hurrah for a couple about to have a baby. So hanging around a heavily pregnant women whilst I'm crippled with period pain and misery - also not going to be fun.

Anyway will try and stay positive and think that my concern will be about hiding that I'm not drinking. Here's hoping...

Busta your dates are looking good!
Footprints and radders - have wonderful holidays
Tee - still no AF?

Xx

Just realised this is probably not what people want to wake up to sorry!!!

I was a bit constipated last night and it came out all of a sudden this morning which is what I think caused the blood!

Hi all, I'm 5 weeks today and during my first morning Diarrhoea trip I noticed a bit of blood in it. Not loads but some.
After a quick google:
Hemorrhoids are very common and could cause your stools to become bloody. Increased blood flow plays a role, along with the pregnant uterus putting pressure on the veins. Avoiding constipation (by drinking plenty of water and eating a lot of fiber) may help prevent hemorrhoids from.

Great!! I am eating lots of fibre and lots of water. Any other tips to firm me up a bit?!!

Morning all,

Waiting patiently at the airport for my flight to Lefkada in Greece. feeling a little breezy "down there " after my Brazilian wax experience yesterday! Think DH will have a little shock if he sees it!
Planning on doing lots of bedroom activity this week. AF on its way out luckily.

Only just caught up on the thread! Glad all looking good for you radders, Jodders and PS. Fingers crossed Jem, &Tee.

Busta- Re temps I get a big drop before then a spike but I've seen BFP charts that don't so think everyone is different.

Mimi- hi, yes taking the clomid started cd2, finish on cd6. Was in two minds but it can produce good eggs so thought worth a bash until I get told not to for gynae in Aug.

Radders- will b thinking if u relaxing on hol too X
Will try to keep in touch with u all and hear all your good news.
