TTC buddy needed!

Sorry didn't really explain my response there. Basically I'm not having a fantastic time at work at the moment. The manager won't even look at me if he doesn't have to, so I just try to avoid him at all costs and get on with my day.
I've had some issues there and I don't feel comfortable speaking to him at all. There's a clique and he's a part of it, and I'm public enemy number one atm it seems so just trying to keep my head down.

Ah yea, that makes sense. Hope it all goes well for you x

Yes @Zm2019 they are legally required to give you time off for ante natal appointments BUT I refuse to tell them until I have to, I'll only get attitude or an eye roll or something.

Hey, don't hold me on it. But if your pregnant I think work are entitled to give you paid leave for midwife appointments. I'm not 100% sure.
Congrats.x

I'm 4+6 today, been and changed doctors but have to wait until 23rd August for my appointment due to waiting for one outside or working hours (can't afford to miss any work).
Filled out my first midwife form, was quite funny as me and the receptionists were debating which hospital I'd pick. In the end I couldn't decide so will discuss with midwife when I see them. (I'd have 3 to choose from where I live).

Hope you're well @Skyla01 fingers and toes are crossed for you! 🤞🏻 xx

@lonelyonee how many weeks are you now?

We've DTD lots around ovulation so hoping this month is our month. Fingers crossed!

Sorry to hear AF has come for some of you ladies.
Better luck for the new cycle! 🤞🏻

Yesssssss @Skyla01 !! Get dtd!!! Fingers majorly crossed for you!

I'm also suffering in the heat, bloody nausea comes on randomly at work and I'm having to breathe through it like don't be sick don't be sick don't be sick.

Also ladies if you're off to a beer garden please have a drink for me! I'm having to avoid them like the plague as one of my friends is in the dark about me and she'll 100% guess if I'm not drinking 😭

Hi @AllTheGlitter what does DP mean? Is that (Dear Partner?) Xx

That's annoying @OP, hope you get an answer soon. I've just had my positive opk so ovulation probably today. Nearly in tww! Feeling positive this time- 3rd time lucky!

Hi all,

Ok if I join you?

I'm CD7
Cycle: 8
TTC: #2
Age: 35

Anyone approaching the BD time? how often are you going to try?

xxxxxx

Af arrived this morning so I’m out! Bet of luck to you all :)

@AllTheGlitter thank you! Ahh I've had w few of those it's actually insane. But maybe it's a premonition for what's to come?
@Skyla01 I only managed about 5 days of OPKs but I'm sure I ovulated early so it wouldn't have mattered much if I carried on anyway! Although my head wasn't really in ttc with everything I've had going on with work etc... so maybe that's why we conceived this month? Who knows.

Good luck ladies 🤞🏻✨

@AllTheGlitter when is your AF due? I was dreaming the other night about cb opk (Using them this cycle for the first time)- think I was worried about forgetting to poas in the morning!

I'm still waiting for ovulation here. Cd23... hopefully will ovulate within the week.

Thank you @CroissantwithCheese 🙂

Aww well I'm hoping this is a lucky thread and you'll get yours 🤞🏻

I wasn't expecting it tbh since I had a shitty month with work etc... but I guess because I wasn't thinking about it so much it happened? Who knows. DP is just amazed his swimmers work haha 😂

Oh wow @lonelyonee, huge congrats!!

Af is due tomorrow...I’ve been testing the last 4 days and bfn every time. Still keeping fingers crossed though, and your happy results are keeping me going!

@Abi58 we've decided to wait til 8 weeks to make sure we will be able to see something! No we won't be telling parents/family until we are reassured that everything is okay. Due to DPs previous partner miscarrying a few years ago at 10 weeks he's extremely paranoid and doesn't want to go through having to tell people bad news again which is understandable.
I'm just pooing myself because I'm not sure how my DS (Dear Sister) is going to react. She's very judgemental and has never had children, although she did have an ectopic pregnancy a few years back.

@lonelyonee and yes early scan will definitely help put your mind at rest. Try to wait til 7 weeks if we'd been off by a couple of days we wouldn't have seen much and it would have caused me more worry (only risked it as was hoping for reassurance before telling parents)

@lonelyonee good 😂
Aw no! When will you tell parents? We've told my mum so far.
Aw yeah that's my worry people we see a lot will guess when I refuse the Prosecco or a beautiful rare steak and I'd rather tell people than they guess (I'm a poor liar)

@Abi58 yeah believes it now! He's super paranoid so now has me on a telling ban which for me is going to be incredibly hard to do especially feeling sick I'm sure someone's going to guess and I'll have to tell porkies! I told him about getting an early scan and he's agreed that's a good idea, as it will definitely ease his mind.

Yes how is everyone?!

@Skyla01 thank you 💕

@lonelyonee oh wow definitely definitely preggers! 😁 ...does your partner believe you now? 😂

Try and eat little and often it surprisingly helps keep the nausea away ☺️ start with plain crackers and digestive biscuits make sure you get some sugar too ☺️

🤞🏻 for everyone else and keep the updates coming!

Thank you ladies I'm in actual shock  got another couple of tests so will do another lot next week. Hopefully get some progression on them!
My head is spinning now though, so many things to do/think about! Argh!
DPs been on at me all morning to eat but I really don't feel up to it yet as feeling nauseous.

Got my fingers and toes crossed for the rest of you ladies!!! This thread is feeling quite lucky I feel
