Hi all, thought as it's Bank Holiday and thread 15 was 900 plus I'd start a new one, hope that's OK??

Copying tags from when @starkid updated them all the other day.

Hope this works as I've not created a thread before!!

Just seen GOT... Good heavens!! Only 3 to go. Plus a 90 min line of duty next Sunday. At least they're good distractions!!

@cupcakesandglitter I've only used them one month but I was impressed. Very comfy and no leaks even overnight. One pair has gone a bit bobbly though but no one will see. Get to try them out again as AF has finally arrived after 5 days of spotting torture

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 20:59

Just had a shower and was having a good breast squeeze and found what feels like a lump ... but there’s such changes in the feel of them at the moment (tissue growth) so I’m fairly confident that’s what it is. I’m 11dpo with other symptoms of PG so a possibility. Do I rush to get an appointment tomorrow or do I wait until I find out in the next few days and then get it checked armed with that information (which would be fairly significant)?

Tropicana1 · 29/04/2019 20:52

@Keyboard91 @cupcakesandglitter @LikeTheFruit thanks for the support girls 😂🙌🏻 here's hoping I manage to keep AF away through the power of buying tampons!

@LokiCat 😻😻

MrsEG · 29/04/2019 20:30

Just watched GoT - oh my goodness!!!!

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 20:28

@cupcakesandglitter I can't deal. I had to sit in a dark room haha

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 20:27

@cupcakesandglitter It’s all hanging out, don’t know how I’m going to wear these trousers tomorrow at this rate!

@LokiCat he is very happy and now in the mood ... but my drive is zero and my energy is zero so it’s a non-starter! Love the kitty!

Got halfway through my dinner and stopped as wave of nausea. Just want to know what is going on! Xx

LokiCat · 29/04/2019 20:18

@Keyboard91 😂😂 I bet your DP is happy!

This is the life guys, seriously. It's all she's done this afternoon/evening:

TTC First Baby - Thread 16!!
cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 20:17

@McHelenz did you watch it?! X

Thanks @LokiCat xx

@Keyboard91 the bloat has hit me too!Came into the house and whipped my bra off because these titties do not want touching, and opened my zip and unleashed the belly 😂 x

@Tropicana1 I like your thinking 😂😂 x

@LikeTheFruit ooh I've wondered about the pants!! Do they work well/are they comfy? Xx

LikeTheFruit · 29/04/2019 19:27

@Tropicana1 😂😂 I tried that last month by buying some ModiBodi pants. Hoping you're more lucky than I was!!

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 19:26

@Tropicana1 I like your thinking 😂

Tropicana1 · 29/04/2019 19:15

Stocked up on tampons today in preparation for AF which obviously means I'll actually get a BFP instead. Right? That's how it works in my head 😂

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 18:42

@LokiCat I hear ya! I’m sat on the sofa with my bare butt exposed as trousers have been pulled down below my butt and is sat around my lower hip 😂 DP is happy so!

MrsR16 · 29/04/2019 18:40

@MrsEG thanks darling 😘 I'm hoping I'll take after my mum and not have any! She didn't have any at all with all 4 of us! 😂 lucky devil, hey? Xx

@cupcakesandglitter thanks sweetie! I'm still following every move on here 😊😊 xx

@LokiCat no, it's certainly manageable at the moment! I'm still very excited (it doesn't feel real) xx

LokiCat · 29/04/2019 17:30

Hey ladies! Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

First day of OPK tests for me - I feel so out of touch with you all in the TWW!
No GOT for me - was too busy watching Line of Duty! So sad there's only one episode left!! 😩

@Keyboard91 I'm with you on the bloating! Really wanted to undo my jeans on the train journey home, but didn't think it would be received well.. best thing about coming home is taking my bra off and putting on my comfy pjs/trackies 😂
Hopefully bloating is a good sign for a bfp! 🤞🏽

Happy ov day @MrsEG enjoy tonight and tomorrow! Hope the ice cream farm was fun - I saw the tiniest bit of sun on the way and popped to the shops for some Soleros for me and DH 😋

@cupcakesandglitter I hope the sore boobs are a good sign 🤞🏽

@Tropicana1 it's understandable to want to test when you're close to the end of TWW, but you're not out till AF shows up! Try keep distracted till Wednesday, hopefully it'll fly by.

Such an exciting time for you @MrsR16! Hope you're feeling alright and the nausea isn't too bad! 😊

Fingers crossed for you ladies for Wednesday ❤️

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 16:56

Girls I am home! GOT time!

cupcakesandglitter · 29/04/2019 16:36

@MrsR16 oh I'm so happy for you ❤️ XX

@Keyboard91 😂😂 bless her. Sounds like a really interesting conversation though, I think it's good for teens to discuss these things and properly think about them xx

@MrsEG YES! It's very very very dark 😂 i was too tired to get out of bed so we watched it on DHs phone. Bad idea, especially given how dark it was 😂 x

@Keyboard91 @Tropicana1 @SophWolf yeah okay! We'll all test on Wednesday 😊😊 xx

Tropicana1 · 29/04/2019 15:45

@Keyboard91 that sounds like such a good informative class discussion!

@MrsEG you're right I just need to let what will happen happen! No point over thinking it

McHelenz · 29/04/2019 15:18

I've worked through lunch to finish at 4.30 so I can get home early!!

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 15:09

Sorry @SophWolf, just saw you were thinking about testing Weds too, you should join us and FX for you :)

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 15:08

@cupcakesandglitter @Tropicana1 we should all test together Weds! FX for you both!

@Tropicana1 @MrsEG we do teach them a lot about ways to empower themselves to make a difference :) personally I’m vegetarian (but I ate burgers when I was PG!) so it’s always interesting. But the ham/pig discussion led to lamb and how it’s younger sheep which led to I can’t eat baby sheep to what is mutton and who eats venison and who tried rabbit and I was just like 🤢 as felt a little queasy before the convo 😂 they commented on how they’d always been taught about the impact of transporting food (food miles) but never about how their choice in food compared. Then discussed impact vs being vegetarian/vegan and actually was a lovely class discussion :)

I don’t know how it’s possible but I’m even more bloated. Gonna rip these trousers 😂

MrsEG · 29/04/2019 15:01

@McHelenz @cupcakesandglitter @MrsR16 Waahh so excited to watch it tonight now!! DH watched it this morning - the only advice he gave was that apparently it’s been shot very dark, so watch in the dark as it’s really hard to see?! Looking forward to catching up about it tomorrow!!!

@SophWolf Good luck testing on weds - I have high hopes for you!!

@MrsR16 So Good to hear from you! Not to scare you but my sisters sickness didn’t start til week 7 - she said in some ways it was nice though as it just mean baby was growing away in there!! Stock up on some ginger biscuits now just in case!!

@Keyboard91 That is awesome that you are teaching kids about climate change choice! LOL at the ham though - I am a vegetarian and I always remember my granny asking if I could still eat deli meats ‘well there’s no bloody meat in them is there they’re sliced so thin’ - erm, well yes there is haha!!

@Tropicana1 You’re not out til AF sings! Try and do anything to take your mind off it these last few days, there’s absolutely nothing you can do to change the outcome now and worry will do you no good!

Tropicana1 · 29/04/2019 14:41

@Keyboard91 😂😂 did you burst her bubble regarding the ham?

I'm all over the place at the moment - I've convinced myself I'm not pregnant this month, but then I'm thinking AF is due weds so should I test again weds or thurs - WHY am I even thinking about testing again when I don't even think I'm pregnant what is actually wrong with me. Maybe it's because I haven't had any cramping yet and normally I do in the few days leading up to AF.

@McHelenz laughed SO hard at the boobies being set free 😂

Keyboard91 · 29/04/2019 14:33

Funny story - teaching PSHE to my Yr11 girls and looking at the impact of food choices on climate change ... one girl started crying during the video because it showed pictures of pigs when it was discussing types of meat (literally just happy pigs in a shed!). I asked her if she was vegetarian and she said no! She the said ‘I don’t eat pigs because I love them ... but I do eat ham’ 😂

I’m literally just sat at my desk ... brain is not working so productivity is ZERO 😴😴😴

MrsR16 · 29/04/2019 13:43

@cupcakesandglitter you know what, I'm actually doing alright! Nausea hits occasionally but that's only when I've not eaten. Other than that, I've got constant bloating, ever-growing boobs (which DH loves!) and the knowledge that I've got a little bean growing! I love coming back on here seeing how you're all doing! Xx
