TTC First Baby Thread 20

Wow!! So many congratulations for everyone!

@MrsEG - so exciting that it’s twins! So happy for you!

@Pinksunset1- Congratulations! I hope you have a healthy 9 months :)

@Lozzlepop - Congratulations to you! So exciting!

Looks like there is something in the water right now!

@LokiCat - I think your symptoms are very encouraging!
I’m 5 DPO today so you never know! I had the weirdest dream last night about being getting a BFP which I know means nothing, but I can’t decide if it was upsetting or comforting.
Sigh! Roll on Sunday for us all :)

It’s rainy and grey here, so clearly gearing everyone up for a positive day in the office 😂

@Anny27 - a positive OPK means Ov is imminent, between the next 12-36 hours. I usually think of it as within the next 24 hours from my positive OPK.

@LokiCat i'm also trying to record my "symptoms" each month. Its kinda funny looking back at the stuff i noticed last month - turns out i wasnt pregnant, just very spotty, bloated, hungry and moody haha!

Ladies who use OPKs - when you get a positive does that mean you have ovulated or are about to ovulate?

@ELW85 hopefully the valet should be enough to sort it out!
I've been feeling slightly queasy the last two mornings, also had a lot of creamy cm yesterday (don't worry about tmi on here, we share it all 😂). I still think I'm only queasy because I'm hungry though! The feeling subsides once I've eaten.
Apart from that, nothing else really! I'm trying to record all symptoms during my LP every cycle - when I previously had my bfp I didn't record anything, so can't compare 🤦🏻‍♀️
How many dpo are you? Could the slight cramps possibly be implantation?

Hope you all have a great day! It's quite grey and muggy here unfortunately!

@ValidUser - happy to help at all matey, and you’ve got an entire squad of surfers here for whenever you need us x

@Lozzlepop @LokiCat - I’m going for the full valet. 14 weeks is ridiculous and I’m sure a good scrubbing will sort it!

@LokiCat - a family BBQ sounds awesome!! Funnily enough my brother and his OH just invited us to one next month - I’d love some good news to give them too :)
How are you doing symptoms wise? I had v minor crampy feelings today and more CM than I would usually have (sorry!) but it’s just made me a bit concerned that AF may be en route and far too early than is healthy/expected.

@Lozzlepop - your rose buds sound beautiful and I would take comfort in that :) and if it’s a girl...call her poppy (haha!)

I hope everyone is having a wonderful evening!

@Imjustme2019 nice to have someone with a similar cycle :D you can bring me back to earth when i have the urge to test at 2dpo haha 🤣

Hey ladies, just checking in.

@ValidUser I'm the same I sometimes miss a couple of days, but it does look like quite a shift.

@Anny27 I think we're the same cycle wise I'm CD8 too

@ELW85 glad they've offered you options! I'm assuming a full valet should sort it out - I wouldn't be able to wait 14 weeks 😂 What option are you going to go for?

@ValidUser staying optimistically surfer for you as well!! 🤞🏽❤️

@Lozzlepop ah that's so lovely to read about your memorial rose. It sounds like a great sign ❤️
I'm going to try and hold out till Sunday We're going to my parents' for a BBQ, so will be nice to share good news with them. If I have no symptoms whatsoever, though, I'll probably just wait to see if AF shows!

@ELW85 that’s so annoying about the car, why would someone be so rude and inconsiderate?!

@LokiCat I will remain quietly optimistic that’s it’s a good sign 🤗 will you be holding out to test? There’s nothing worse than varnish or gloss in your hair 🙈

@ValidUser I know nothing about temping I’m afraid so can’t offer any advice but I am keeping everything crossed for you!

Got home from work and went for a nosy in the garden! Delighted to see that our memorial rose has 2 tiny little buds on it! Know I’m being silly but taking it as a really good sign ❤️

@ValidUser - ah I see! Happy for us to be optimistic surfers too though :)
Sorry I didn’t really help much - I’d be reserved too if it was me, but I’m keeping the faith for you! X

@ValidUser - I might be totally getting it wrong (with my limited knowledge of triggers, etc) but if you exclude a couple of anomalies, there’s a definite shift between the avg temp range pre 17th to post 17th? :)

@LokiCat - they’ve agreed to pay £100 for it to be fully valeted, or I can reorder the car from scratch but it would take another 14 weeks (factory made)...

@ELW85 oh no, how annoying! Surely that should be a complaint?? I hate the smell of smoking and would have been very pissed off! Is it worth calling the car dealership about it?

@ValidUser sorry to hear that you think you may not have ovulated. I do agree that Ava would be the one to listen to, generally.
Could it be a slow rise?

@ValidUser - ah well to be fair, Ava is going to be way more attuned to your body than FF (from what I understand of it), and if there are other variables like your duvet, I’d take FF with a pinch of salt :)

I hope everyone’s Monday’s are going well?

@LokiCat - car delivery wasn’t great - the driver who dropped it off had been smoking in it :(

@LokiCat that’s interesting. I won’t get upset if I don’t see a dip then.

I am also feeling reasonably relaxed this cycle. Maybe there is something in the air.

Really sorry to hear that, @ValidUser.

@ValidUser ahh thats a shame! Next month hopefully xx
