TTC Baby number 1 - Looking for buddies #2

@Katie1109 Thanks hun, feel quite gutted because I wanted to think this was it. A 42 day cycle this month when usually it's been 34-35. I'm going to take a break from ttc but I'll still be on here to see how you ladies get on ❤️

Morning Ladies, AF showed herself today 😒, come on heavy straight away which isn't like me but I'm officially out after a long ass cycle

Hi everyone!

@flossy12 Aww little peanut, I bet that was reassuring to see. Sorry your stomach is still giving you a hard time, hopefully you don't have that much of it left - the first couple of months are meant to be the worst!

@Hewie30 Hope your cystitis/UTI is getting better - maybe get it checked out if you're getting blood in your wee to be on the safer side? Hope AF is staying away still, are you thinking of testing tomorrow?

@Gigi318 Morning hun, yeah sort of SMEP but not quite is what we've been doing as well, I don't want to force it. That's interesting, my OH doesn't mind if I still have a bit of AF left as long as it's not in full swing (I don't think he notices really), but I prefer to wait a bit after for everything to "tidy up" 😁

@flossy12 morning love! Glad you're feeling fine this morning, but sorry about the sickness. Hope it starts to ease off soon and this isn't the start of it getting bad 🙈 eek! Oh noooo, pizza is my fave I'd hate to go off it! Are you feeling tired or anything?? Xx

I'm doing fine this morning hope everyone else is ☺️☺️ woke up feeling sick 😩 had a really bad appetite yesterday so didn't end up eating much so I've got icky tummy 😩😩

@Hewie30 I was just in shock when I got mine, thought I would cry but I think it was more the utter disbelief had me speechless 😩 then just pure excitement 💞

@Gigi318 gosh I hope so! Won't be much fun if I can't eat much 😅 got the blandest appetite lately can't handle much at all, and I've completely gone off pizza makes me gag every time I try eat some

Morning ladies, how are we all?

@flossy12 amazing! You're going to have such a lovely time. Not long now. Woohoo!

@Hewie30 I didn't - I'm such a bad napper 🙈 But I did read on the sofa for an hour or so, so that helped. And I was asleep by 9pm again. Wild Saturday night for us 🤣 OH still all man fluey - love him! Not much so far, cleaning, went for a run, saw my parents, read. We had Indian last night, so that was nice. What about you?
Yesssss I really hope so. Any sign of AF yet?? I hope not. This is all so exciting!! And I would definitely cry too - through 99% sheer joy and 1% panic 🙊

@gigi318 haha! Did you get your nap? 😂. This weather definatly makes you feel froggy your right! One minute it's ok then next massive downpour! You been doing much this weekend?
Fingers crossed the buggar won't come and Monday and Tuesday will be here before we know it 🤞. I'm hoping this long ass cycle won't be for nothing

@flossy12 Awh I bet!! I'd definitely cry! I think I'll cry whenever I get my BFP too 😂

@Gigi318 yeah just going to enjoy my holiday and that'll help pass the time ☺️☺️

@flossy12 so glad chick, it's all so exciting. Now for the 12 week one. I bet that feels like so long away!! I'd definitely be so emotional too! Xx

@Hewie30 yes! Everything is absolutely fine thank god, I feel so much more at ease now ☺️ me and my sister were so close to tears but managed to hold it together 👏🏼

@Makeafamily19 hehe it will be all you guys soon! 😍😍 so glad I have you all hear for support you all help me loads 😅 I'm like a fish out of water atm

@Gigi318 hehe finally! 😆 can't believe it's so small! And yeah heard the heartbeat it was so strange to think it's beating away down there 😍

@Hewie30 absolutely. It'll be Monday-Tuesday before you know it. And hopefully AF stays away before then. Hope you get some time off to relax this weekend! I feel like I may spend it napping 🤣 this tiredness is so unlike me. I blame the drizzly weather!!!

@gigi318 Awh I'd love that 😍😍. I'm hoping not! It usually starts spotting like this but usually when I wake up rather then through the day 🤔. Yeah they cost so much! So the longer I can hold out the better (if this isn't AF)

@Hewie30 absolutely. Those things are pricey! Yes, she had tested and BFN then the BFP arrived 🙌🏻 eeek hope it's not AF. Do you know what to expect with AF or does it vary??
Absolutely, I'm really trying to just relax but it is hard isn't it. I feel really tired today so hoping to have a bit of a lazy afternoon. Having a big clean killed me this morning 🙈

@gigi318 Yeah exactly! Then if I come on its not wasting a pregnancy test 😊. Oh really? Poor thing having to wait that long! Im hoping that'll be me but I just wiped and got some pink blood but it was painful so not sure if it's AF coming or just my cystitis 🤷.
Yeah I was like that last month but if he's away then there's no point fretting about it. I just feel the more stressed we are it could effect our chances.
Haha! I'm trying 😂

@Hewie30 yes absolutely, I do hope it's a positive for you. I really do 💙 still living vicariously through you hehe! Could be. A girl on another thread was 9 days late from AF then got her BFP! Exactly, I just want to relax an little and have fun with it. I've even worried that OH may be away at the wrong time and I'm done with that now - I feel like I'm already worrying and it's annoying. So no more!!!
And look at this willpower you have haha woohoo yes no worries about holding out, it can only be a good thing waiting longer!!!

@flossy12 oh look at little Peanut 💖 what a gorgeous thing to see!!! How amazing!!! I bet that has made your weekend!!!

@Nicecupofcoco welcome back chick!

@Raizelrea oh I know the feeling, I had that and fixated on it. But now I think I secretly wanted it to be morning sickness so probably acknowledged it more than I needed too 🙄 hehehe yes I always need to wee all pf the time so I'd hate to think what I'll be like PG. Should probably start training my bladder now 🤣
Not started yet. Have a little bit of brown CM still at the moment (which always happens after full flow stops) and OH won't come near me til all clear 🙊 hopefully start tomorrow-Monday. I'm CD5 now so no rush. Well, sort of SMEP but without opks. I'm not ready to even think about then yet. So we shall we how it goes. I feel like lots of DTD should mean that something happens 🤷‍♀️🤣

@flossy12 😍 wow! So glad it went well! Must be such a relief for you. Amazing to think peanut is only 1.8cm but already has a heartbeat!

@flossy12 Awwwh hiiii peanut 😍😍. So glad everything's okay, how do you feel? Was it emotional?

Tiny but there is our Peanut 💞 measuring 1.8cm so 6+5 just as I thought 😆 I guessed she would put me at 6+6 so I was close 😅 heard the little heart beat and she said everything looks perfect 😍

@Raizelrea Thanks hun haha ❤️. It's only because when I did a test Tuesday it was negative so I've got in my head that it's just a weird cycle not pregnancy

@Hewie30 Your patience continues to amaze me!

@Gigi318 erm I'm not sure either tomorrow or Monday but not sure whether to wait until Tuesday incase luteal length is long?

@flossy12 Good luck today Hun 😍😍😍😍

@Gigi318 Ahh okay, I don't feel stressed so hopefully it's not that. Hopefully it's because of a positive but I know it could just be a complete mad cycle and luteal phase can be up to 17 days so that means Monday. That sounds like a good idea to me 😊, being laid back is the best way although it can be difficult to try and keep yourself that way 😂. Just try your best ❤️

@Gigi318 Haha I know what you mean. I've ben getting waves of nausea (especially in the car, like motion sickness, but sometimes just randomly in the evening while not doing anything) - but I had that last cycle so I think it's not out of ordinary for me (though I never noticed till TTC haha). Other than that not really, just generally really tired but that could be for a number of reasons. Also having to wee all the time but honestly that's pretty normal for me as well. So on the whole I guess no symptoms? 😆 How are you, has all the DTD commenced? Are you doing SMEP or just generally loads of DTD?
