@Blueflower22 oh gosh I can see your predicament, has it been sorted

I don't understand why people need to ask us what the rush is

I never ask them why they had to wait long, the whole reason of this chat was for positive vibes only 😢

I really wouldn't put off an agreed training place. When you are on your training you normally have the same rights as employment, so to take maternity leave/defer part of it. If you waited until you had completed your training and had a job, then you would be entitled to leave knowing you had a job to go back to.

Can I just ask... what's the rush? 🤔

Hi! Ttc in january technically but haven't been being careful since 4 days after my predicted ovulation. I'm not a day late so hopefully a nice surprise!
I'm 22, with my OH for 5 years, we have a mortgage and one dog, one cat.. hopefully one mini us soon!
Good luck everyoneFlowers

@qwertt12 I don't know. I got a bit upset as my partner talks about my future teacher training like it's something that is definately going to happen, but we agreed we'd start trying to a baby now. My training starts in September and he thinks that even when pregnant I can have the baby and finish it of. I told him the providers might not let me (which is true) , plus I don't want to finish the rest while baby is small

@qwertt12 awww well that's a good way to look at things. I hope things go well.

I've just had an emotional fit in the last hour so just recovering from that 😭

I am so glad you have said that! We literally where doing it so much! And it didn't happen,

We have now decided to relax and not do any ovulation tests just enjoy the trying stage,

It was becoming a stress when it doesn't need to be

But it's crazy how much you look for symptoms I was sick and was adamant I was!

Xx

@qwertt12 this is my first cycle of using OPKs to see when ovulation is. I got bad pains and then me and partner dtd a few hours later. I hope it's enough. I can't stop thinking about pregnancy! It's consuming my time and thoughts! I feel like I shouldn't think about it in order for it to happen. I need to wait a week at least until I can test.

Pretty annoyed because I ordered early detection tests on eBay and want them to arrive before partner sees! As I don't want him to know my POAS obsession 😂. Hope they come before he's off for Xmas

Blueflower22 · 18/12/2018 18:23

@qwertt12 yeah they do, and then you start to feel bad.

Are you using OPKs,? Hmmm that's interesting maybe you did get pregnant but might have been a chemical pregnancy

You are more likely to be told you’re too young rather than your 2 young.

Yes me to! And they are often quick to tell you that your 2 young 😮

I am actually on my period

I was TTC last month and my period was 20 days late which I have never had before so it's a fresh start for me

What about you?

OP posts:
Blueflower22 · 18/12/2018 17:55

@qwertt12 do you have any children? What cycle day are you on?!

Blueflower22 · 18/12/2018 17:55

Great! I'm 20 also! I've found that a lot of people on this site are older
