@Robbo93 snap hun. I don't want my son to miss out on holidays etc because we are trying for a baby, it's not fair to him. But also don't want to lose lots of money if I book something and then fall pregnant. 🙈 think I'll hang on just another cycle and then book something and whatever happens, happens! Xx

Robbo93 · 12/01/2020 10:34

I'm the same @Gems7 regarding booking a holiday. We wanted to go away around September time but can't book anything just yet just in case lol xx

Gems7 · 12/01/2020 08:31

@Ellsbells112 glad you had a great time, I really hope it rains over there soon and just doesn't stop for a week because it really is so sad.
Still waiting for AF here, thought it would be here yesterday but it wasn't, been spotting for 2 days though so it must definitely be here by the end of today. Really wanted a baby by the end of this year so I'm praying it happens in the next couple of months. For all of us.
Also I want to book a holiday for myself my partner and my son for later this year, around October time and it's difficult when you're trying to get pregnant isn't it, 🤔 what do I do if I get pregnant.. but equally you can't stop living either can you 🤷🏻‍♀️
Hope all you lovely ladies have had a good weekend xx

Ellsbells112 · 11/01/2020 13:44

@Gems7 heyyyy long time!! No luck here either, it's an ongoing struggle 😩 Australia was amazing but it is serious what is happening out there. Sometimes I'd wake up in the morning and thought the house was on fire because all you can smell is smoke (I was an hour away from the fires) and Ash is falling from the sky daily 😭😪 so heartbreaking honestly and what a beautiful country that it is.
I had hoped that Australia would have brought on a baby 😂 statistically it should have happened lol af due Monday and pretty sure it's coming.
Happy new year tooo hun xx

Robbo93 · 11/01/2020 10:47

@Anny27 yeah, only took one yesterday and today tho after increased CM x

Anny27 · 11/01/2020 08:59

@Gems7 ah sirey AF is on the way :( I am still trying! First cycle trying after the miscarriage, took ages for my period to get back so its nice to actually feel proactive in trying vs just waiting in limbo.

I am ovulating today probably so soon be in TWW!

@Robbo93 are you doing the clear blue ones?

Gems7 · 11/01/2020 08:44

@Ellsbells112 @Anny27
Hey Girlssssssss, I’m here 👋🏻
So sorry for being missing in action for bloody ages and ages. I was quite upset a while back, just frustrated with it all I think. Missed talking to you all though and always wondered how you were all getting along.. so tell me.. who is pregnant now? And who is still trying?
I’m still trying, it hasn’t happened yet for us unfortunately, I started spotting yesterday lunchtime and AF will be here today I imagine, like clockwork. I’m waiting for my other half to have his sperm tested to make sure there’s no issues his end. Why does it have to be so damn difficult eh 😃 if anyone has discovered any magical means to get preggers since I’ve been away please do tell..
I hope all you beautiful ladies had a lovely Christmas and new year and @Ellsbells112 how was Australia? It’s breaking my heart what’s happening there at the moment 💔

FingersCrossedXXX · 10/01/2020 22:34

@EllsBells112 No scan booked yet. I had to register at our local doctors and then only managed to get an appointment today. They will now refer me but it'll be March really until I'm 12 weeks for my scan. Might get a early one around 8 weeks as i have no patience.

Robbo93 · 10/01/2020 21:22

Just took an advanced OPK & it was blank circle. I've got quite a lot of mucus today tho x

Robbo93 · 10/01/2020 20:43

@Anny27 I have a hospital appt next week so will briefly mention it x

Anny27 · 10/01/2020 20:41

@Robbo93 might have been! So tough for you not to know where you are in your cycle!

Are you considering seeing the doctor?

Robbo93 · 10/01/2020 20:39

@Anny27 nope!!! (Thanks for thinking of me 🥰)
I'm starting to wonder whether the 1 spot of blood or the pinkish mucus for 1 wipe were maybe my 'period' - a very, very light one if so x

Anny27 · 10/01/2020 20:36

Temping is so good as I know when to relax the crazy DTD 🤣🤣🤣 @Ellsbells112

Yep I also wanna know where @Gigi318 and @Gems7 are 🤣

@Laur89 have you Ovulated yet?

What about you @Robbo93 - Af? 🤞

Ellsbells112 · 10/01/2020 17:17

@anny27 yeah exactkh so you never know! I had a dip in my last cycle but at 4dpo and I got ewcm with it, from research I found out it was a secondary estrogen surge.
Anyway my temps have gone back down but still above cover line so I dunno! It's good for checking you actually ovulated though 😂

Anny27 · 10/01/2020 10:10

@ellsbells112 when I was pregnant I didnt have a temp dip and when I wasnt pregnant I did have a temp dip 🤣🤣 so I am backwards!

@FingersCrossedXXX ahh its such an exciting time. Hope we are all joining you in pregnancy soon haha xxx

Ellsbells112 · 10/01/2020 10:07

@FingersCrossedXXX basically it's clutching at straws 23 percent of pregnancy bbt charts have a temp dip and then shoots back up and 11 percent of non pregnant charts have it and yeah you aren't preggo so it's not a sure fire thing lol just another thing to hope on.
Aww bless you I would feel the same! Have you got a scan booked yet? Xx

FingersCrossedXXX · 10/01/2020 08:29

@EllsBells112 Could be too early to show, wait a few more days. I don't understand the temperature stuff but is that a good sign? What's meant to happen if you are pregnant?

I'm good thanks, still doesn't feel real for me yet and don't think it will until I have a scan!

Ellsbells112 · 09/01/2020 22:28

@FingersCrossedXXX thank you! I tested today bfn but I'm kind of holding hope because it wasn't fmu and I had drank 2 litres of water constantly peeing. Still felt really down! I had a temp. Dip at 8dpo and its gone right back up... Maybe? Hopefully 😩
How are you?.
How's everyone else?
Where's @Gems7 and @Gigi318 goneeeeee lol

FingersCrossedXXX · 09/01/2020 20:56

@EllsBells112 I have my fingers crossed for you, only takes 1 time to catch. If it helps I had no symptoms what so ever before I got a BFP and barely any now still so don't rule it out just because you feel normal...you never know!

Ellsbells112 · 08/01/2020 15:50

@anny27 hmm I won't test until af is late unless I have a big Symptom lol but I feel fine! Woohoo to your eggs jiggling away waiting to get romance off their feet 😂😁 xx

@Robbo93 that truly is crap 😩

Robbo93 · 08/01/2020 12:55

@Anny27 thanks m'dear. I even stopped taking the extra b6 vitamins over a week ago to see if they were the problem, but obv not!
I had a nice Xmas break etc off work so it's not even like I was stressed 😥

What a horrible process to go through. I hope this cycle is lucky and you get a sticky bean xx

Anny27 · 08/01/2020 12:53

Awwh I really feel for you lovely as it's so hard being stuck in limbo, I felt like that in the 6 weeks waiting for my period to return! @Robbo93

Robbo93 · 08/01/2020 12:41

@Anny27 nope, CD48 😔
Not sure what this could mean unless i ovulated extremely late in my cycle but I've not had symptoms of ovulation to suggest that 🧐

Anny27 · 08/01/2020 11:42

@laur89 ahh exciting :D I am cd14 today and reckon I am ovulating tomorrow as my OPKs are getting darker 🤞 dtd last night and hopefully will DTD tonight and tomorrow too

@Ellsbells112 when will you test hun?

@Robbo93 any AF?

Laur89 · 08/01/2020 11:30

Hey @Ellsbells112! yeah hopefully, not sure if need to DTD again if I had peak yesterday and DTD last night?! I've never done temping, so don't know what that means? 😆 you've still got a chance this month, stay positive! When is af due/when will you test? X
