@Ellsbells112 @CiaraJ01 I've got this app on my phone to encourage me. It's doing f*ck all. 😂

@ciaraj01 I'm 4dpo so we are close! Well online earliest is like 5 or 6 dpo?

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:51

Googled it - implantation ranges from 6-12 DPO although average is 8-9 🤔🤔

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 14:50

@mellymoo86 sooooo petty of plyour OH mum with the giving back stuff! Patheticccccc I think of that meme with the Simpsons guy, principal of the school haha have you seen it? 😂😂
Yeah I mean she'd have to meet me then but I don't even think it's a nasty way from I genuinely thinkshe has issues.

LOL gagging for a pornstar they are beauuuttt tho! Yeah it's annoying when people make it their business to ask why aren't you drinking I don't care how close they are I'm like mate I don't want to relax 😂 ffs then everyone complains when I get loud and off my face... DON'T FORCE THE ISSUE THEN 😂

@ciaraj01 as I said above lol I used to think she was being horrible but now I'm like she's just crazy because she defends me to him? Like he will go to her for advise in some things and she'll back me up 🤷‍♀️ as I said really weird situation. But she doesn't talk to her oldest daughter and her grandson but they had a bad relationship so I don't know much about that. 🤷‍♀️ Family ay

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:50

😂😂😂 that is very sound advice even if you are currently preaching from behind you're wine glass 🥂🥂

Oh I dont know!! I sound like an alcoholic!! 😂 Part of me is just 'what will be will be' cant live you're life like that etc etc... but then the other half is 'if you cant avoid alcohol for this then what's the point' Like I said, I'm a big drinker - it will not be accepted I'm not drinking for any other reason. And I know I dont have to explain, but 1. it's obvious and 2. I couldnt stick them all being so tipsy and me being sober 😂🙈 So I'd likely cancel..

3 DPO - what's the earliest implantation happens?!

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 14:42

@CiaraJ01 most of my friends got pregnant several times whilst being completely wasted 😂 they didn't plan it that way, it just happened. And when I conceived last month I was tipsy. It's probably considered ok to drink before or when you're in the fertile week because there's nothing happening yet but in that 2ww you should probably be more careful as that's when the whole process starts. Alcohol would still make you dehydrated which affects your cm which may affect sperm 🤷🏽‍♀️ ultimately it affects your hormones and if you have conceived and implanting is happening your body will devote all it's resources to make sure it happens right and if alcohol alters it then it can't be a good thing. writes this with a glass of wine in hand 😂

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:27

@mellymoo86 yep around 3 days dpo? what do you reckon? skip the booze tomorrow or yolo? I'm an all or nothing kinda girl, so after NYE I'll be tee total till end if Feb when I have my best friends hen... unless that BFP comes sooner 🤞

Definitely agree about spending more by starting earlier! I bought my nephew some bits and pieces as I went along and wrapped them all a while ago - found more in my wardrobe for him a week later 🙈

And amazon prime doesnt even feel like you're spending real money! 😂

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 14:02

@CiaraJ01 I find that the earlier I start the more I spend. I buy and buy and buy and then I starve for the whole of Jan. lol. I've getting deliveries everyday as well...I love Amazon prime ❤️ Haha that's funny his bought alcohol, but he just knows you to well lol. Well in past two months I've been drinking here and there. Not heavily but still drinking. This is the first time I thought I should stop especially after MC, it sort made me question if I'm doing all I can. I don't think it affects it at all but then I'm no doctor so who knows. I'm not even fertile right now but the longer I can do it the easier it'll become (I hope) 🙏🏽 If I'm going to have any it should be now really, about 5 days before trying. You're a few days into the 2ww right?

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 11:00

@nt1992 Happy friday! how are you?

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 11:00

@Ellsbells112 i'm not sure I'd be so forgiving when a baby arrives! They don't want to know you - then they don't get to know their grandchild!!

@mellymoo86 I know I'm afraid to check my bank balance!! I started shopping in Oct so have pretended I'm super organised - when realistically I only bought two presents. Plus I have to get them all shipped home!!
The walkman is hilarious - fair enough returning an unwanted gift there and then, but historically is beyond petty! Lol don't talk to me about Oh! he brought me alcohol home last night!! I think it was his way of trying to make up for it, but he got it a lil wrong! Well done you for persevering though. Do you not drink at all during the 2WW? I'm meant to be heading out tomorrow for our biggest event of the year and unsure what to do!

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 10:32

@Ellsbells112 Yup she will definitely come around after a baby comes into the picture. Which is silly because then what happens to both of your relationships? Let's just focus on the baby and ignore this awkward tension between us lol. My hubby said that if they come to us in the future he won't be accepting them so easily and they won't be allowed close to the child without a proper relationship with me first. I quietly did a little fist pump in the air lol

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 10:29

@CiaraJ01 Morning! Yeah managed to get most of the shopping done but just need to get some final bits! Man it cost so much! Can't I just give people a hug and be done with it. 😂 The Walkman was something OH got for his mum years ago. Probably decades ago 😂 she kindly returned it back and we put it into the bin. So petty. Tut tut Prosecco eh! What would OH think lol. I went for dinner with a friend ydy and she was like you aren't drinking why? I had to make something up about doing some bloods because of my migraines 🙈 I kind of felt a bit of pressure to drink as well which annoyed me. Why is it such a massive issue. I get that I always drank a lot and peer pressured my own friends into drinking but WHY IS IT SUCH A ISSUE. Lol. On top of that I feel guilty for lying and she's a close friend. I was gagging for a porn star martini 😩

What are your plans for the weekends?

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 10:16

@ciaraj01 happy Friday!! Nope not at all lol she's just weird apparently she's always been like it and the dad situation is a bit different 🤷‍♀️ well when I have a baby I'm sure they'll want to meet me then won't they! 😂😂

nt1992 · 06/12/2019 08:04

Happy Friday everyone! 🥰

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 07:21

@mellymoo86 just want to clarify the Walkman 😂 So they returned when you got together? Like years later? 😂
Did you get much shopping done? I went to a Debenhams beauty event and sat with a glass of prosecco and some cakes. Before anyone tells my OH... it was the smallest glass of prosecco you've seen 😂

@Ellsbells112 is there religionninvolved in your relationship that makes his mum avoid you? Like you say it's silly people think it defines you!!

Happy friday peeps!!!

Ellsbells112 · 05/12/2019 23:26

@mellymoo86 I agree wholesomely with you ❤️🤗 I practiced nichiren Buddhism for a time, I still love it but haven't practiced for a while. Religions shouldn't separate people just like race and sex shouldn't! Xx

mellymoo86 · 05/12/2019 21:42

@CiaraJ01 just get a restraining order out for MIL, make your life easier lol. That's definitely a nice trait, at least he cares unlike her 😏

I just got back from 5 hours of Christmas shopping. My legs and back hurt so had a bath. I sound like a granny. Was getting a lipstick from Dior and the lady said Miss right? And I said no Mrs. She was like wow you look to young to be married and I was like I'm 33! She asked if I had kids and I said no but ttc and she said I have two kids DONT DO IT 😂 why does everyone say that!

@Ellsbells112 im Srilankan Buddhist and he is Pakistani Muslim. His family want another Muslim, tough shit I'm not! And guess what, your religion doesn't make you the person you are. It's a part of who you are and two different people are able to compromise and live peacefully together. They're so silly. They even sent back a Brita filter jug he got them a year ago 😂 and a Walkman from years ago. Who even has that anymore!

I'm sorry to hear OH's family aren't being great, but honestly it's their loss not yours. You both live your life, be happy and raise a beautiful family. Make sure you keep each other happy, that's all that matters 🤗❤️

EightiesBaby · 05/12/2019 21:07

Hello everyoneXmas Smile still no AF or positive...getting peed off now as if it's another late cycle variation that's just 💩
Thinking of putting the tree and decs up this weekend. X It's almost Friday!!!

Ellsbells112 · 05/12/2019 19:01

@ciaraj01 @mellymoo86 just reading your comments about family lol I've been with my OH for nearly 5 years and never met his mum or dad. They are separated, he wasn't talking to his dad for like the first 3 years of our relationship and only talks to him now as diagnosed with cancer. The mum on the other hand, God knows. Literally have no idea why she doesn't want to meet me🙄 but whatever.
@mellymoo86 what religions? Muslim and Christian?

CiaraJ01 · 05/12/2019 18:39

Lol I used to think I wasn't normal...now I've decided normal does not exist! 😂

I don't track either cause I'm too forgetful to monitor CM and I've no idea where to start with my cervix position. I'm not even sure I know where it is! 😂

nt1992 · 05/12/2019 17:56

@CiaraJ01 I'm not sure any of it really means anything but I like to know if anyone else is experiencing the same stuff and the same time as me 😂 I like to know if I'm normal or not

CiaraJ01 · 05/12/2019 17:51

Sorry @nt1992 I'm a bit clueless with CM and feeling cervix....

nt1992 · 05/12/2019 17:44

4 DPO today, still very wet TMI. Cervix high soft very wet 🤦🏽‍♀️

CiaraJ01 · 05/12/2019 13:21

Lol I know - I've already got my mate on standby for my birthing partner, and she has one job - keep the MIL out of the hospital!!

I know, I think he just feels guilty leaving her since he lost his dad. Which I guess is a good trait!

Hows you're day?

Where is everyone??

mellymoo86 · 05/12/2019 11:38

@CiaraJ01 Ok his mum sounds selfish. She decides on what she wants to do regardless of what other people think 😏 I wish he could celebrate with you instead 🙁 Families ARE bonkers! We already have a billion other things to deal with without them getting their knickers in a twist 😂 (haven't used that line in ages).
