Being unrealistic with myself

Hey @27andcounting! Omg that is amazing news! I am so happy you can get back to tracking and (hopefully) making babies! Our cycles must be very close as I am currently on my 4th and last day of AF.
This will be our month girl!
I'm am ovulating next week! I am trying to do everything in my power to get that BFP!
I am eating healthily, exercising (well, walking the dog more lol) and trying to chill out a bit.
Are you ovulating next week too according to you tracking?

@goodforbrian
Sorry sorry now went MIA haha work has been so crazy. So I called my doctors today as still no AF and went for a wee just before the app and there she is!! But still met with the doctor anyways to just let her know what I had experienced and if it was okay and she was basically just like "yeah, it happens" so just back to tracking now.

Still no AF for me but I've done a PT and it was a BFN so I won't get my hopes up.
@27andcounting any news? And sign if AF it even better a PBP? I know what you mean, TTC is so difficult especially when our bodies just aren't doing what they are supposed to do!
I honestly can't try any harder than I did last month but I will keep on at it and hope for the best! No other option really x

@goodforbrian so sorry to hear that. See what the coming days bring for you, I get it can be really disheartening especially when you've really tried but your not out till your out!
I've finally got sore boobs which means at least my body is doing something I'm hoping AF is on her way now. Still getting BFN's on different brands of tests so just want AF so I can move onto my next cycle. If she isn't her by Friday then I'll get booked in with my doctors.

Ps. I just don't 'feel' pregnant this month either. I'm only 4 days away from being due on AF and I have zero symptoms... if anything I have negative-pregnancy symptoms. No bloating, no hormones, no appetite. Just nothing. I know I am out this month and it is just hurting because over Dec (my fertile week) DH was off of work and we DTD so much. We will never have that much sex again until next Dec because if his work schedule. I've been taking conception vitamins for months, eating the right foods and having lots of sex and it still isn't bloody happening. Grrrr sorry just had to get that off of my chest!

Hello to you both @ScaredFlamingo and @27andcounting and sorry about my absence. I am trying to keep my mind off TTC and I am really trying not to test before the 11th.
@ScaredFlamingo I am so glad you are enjoying this 'time off'.
@27andcounting I am so sorry I have only just seen your message. How are you feeling now? Any news? And I can completely relate to how you must have felt when your friend announced her pregnancy 😢 It's such an array of emotions. I promise I will keep a closer eye on this thread now, we need to support each other!
All the best to you both and Happy New Year (filled with new babies) x

So frustrated still getting BFN but also no AF or even AF symptoms help I'm going crazy

@goodforbrian fingers crossed for you. Nightmare the TWW.
I've had another funny month. As AF came a week early in a bit unsure where I landed with ovulation. She technically isn't due until the 3rd but had no usual period symptoms but also on had BFN on tests (tried a couple of different ones over the past few days) just wait and see what happens.
@ScaredFlamingo hope all goes well and be back to your journey soon.

My best friend who started her journey at the same time as me has just announced she's 12weeks.... which has caused a rollercoaster of emotion.

Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas break! Ok... so I am 3 days into the TWW, fingers crossed this is my month! My fertile period was all last week and I am happy we DTD enough (every day!) I can test on the 11th Jan (if AF doesn't arrive before then)
@ScaredFlamingo good luck for the end of January! Have you enjoyed the break in not TTC?
@27andcounting How's things with you? Any news?

Hey ladies. Just a little update from me. I came on AF yesterday, so no pregnancy for me this year. I feel surprisingly ok though. I did a PT a couple of days before I was due and it obviously came back negative so I kind of knew then I was out this month.
Ovulating again next week so going to get back down to business! 2020 will be my year! So much to look forward too, bring it on! Wishing and sending you all lots of baby dust and positive tests in December xx

@goodforbrian well I'm a little unsure when I'm due as AF came a week early last month. And I did a OPK the other day and though I got a pretty clear positive so that would make me 1 or 2
Days DPO so bit of a wait and see, I'll test at the end of the 2 weeks but continue trying just in case. Nightmare not fully understanding my body this month.

@ScaredFlamingo enjoy this time and like you say hopefully get into the habit of not over thinking it so when you back trying you can take it as it comes (well as much as any of us can)

@ScaredFlamingo haha I know exactly what you mean! Enjoy the time away from TTC and enjoy life without the 'what-ifs' and manic symptom spotting! And if you are anything like me, think of all the money you will save on pregnancy tests lol x

@27andcounting I am also on my TWW and want to hold off testing until AF is due. AF is due on the 18th Dec! 10 loooooong days to fret haha. I feel ok atm, trying not to symptom spot as far too soon! How are you getting on? When are you due? x

@goodforbrian how long till you can test?

I've just come into my 2WW going to really try holding off texting until AF is due

Thank you @ScaredFlamingo and @27andcounting - I'll be thinking of and hoping for you both too 🤞🏽
@ScaredFlamingo I hope all goes well with the removal this month but what a month to take your mind off of TTC! December notoriously flies by and you will be back baby-making in no time! 👍🏽

@goodforbrian good to know! Fingers crossed for you this month! I've read up on the SMEP method which some of my friends recommended and I've seen come up on here a few times.

@ScaredFlamingo oh no so sorry to hear that but onwards and upwards in the new year!!!

Now not only am I getting excited for my own progress but I look forward to hearing from you guys as well

Hi @27andcounting I'm still here! Ovulating this week, positive OPK and DTD every other day... come on BFP! I'm feeling good this month! Trying to remain positive. How are you? Anything to report?
@ScaredFlamingo sorry to hear AF showed her ugly for you, always next month, let's all keep our fingers crossed for Christmas conceptions

@ScaredFlamingo fingers crossed this month then!
@goodforbrian not heard from you in a while. How you getting on?
