Nice to see some of you ladies back. I think my baby making journey for this month is out of the question. My hubby has just been referred to a specialist and the doc mentioned the 'c' word. It more than likely isnt and the referral is more a precaution but cant expect him to perform when we both have that in our head.

@Louu99 lovely to have you back!!! I soooo need to do a digital detox...might copy your idea soon!X

I have no idea what's going on with me...clue app has recalculated my ovulation day twice this cycle so it's messed up what DPO I think I am. Initially I was due AF today but it's not showed up. Pregnancy tests are negative apart from 1 on Saturday where the ever so faint line appeared then faded into nothing. I've had no period cramps like I normally have 24hrs before it starts. But my cycles vary every now and then by a few days. My cycles are also LONG...like up to 40 days....so who knowsHmm Maybe it just didn't stick?

CiaraJ01 · 02/12/2019 18:07

@Louu99 I don't think it's crazy at all! I'd be the exact same. I'd no idea all this TTC and staying pregnant was such a minefield- there should definitely be counselling or something to prepare people!!

Also a break from thinking of it all is such a relief. A weekend away made me realise how I was - not stressed exactly, just all consuming. I've came back feeling so much more positive and relaxed it'll happen when it's meant to 💕💕

PrettyGirl5545 · 02/12/2019 18:06

@nt1992 how many dpo are you in? And i hope you are not symptom spotting :)

PrettyGirl5545 · 02/12/2019 18:05

Glad you are back @Louu99!
You atleast know that you can get pregnant. Let's be optimistic and let's think how we can improve this month. By avoiding heavy workouts, by lowering alcohol intake and stuffs. This month is yours, i mean ours, hopefully.

I'm 10 dpo and i have literally no symptoms. I have 4 days left for AF to show up. I hope she doesn't show her ugly face this month.

@Louu99 hi lovely! Glad to hear from you! I'm ok just waiting again 🤦🏽‍♀️ how are you doing xx

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 15:30

@Louu99 no it's not crazy...I know the feeling. On top of finding out if you're pregnant or not, we now have to look out for a loss and if we are pregnant not get to excited just in case. It's a mind f*ck lol.

Just take each day as it comes and try not to overthink and be anxious about it. Eat well and generally look after your health and trust your body will do its job.

Louu99 · 02/12/2019 15:15

The anticipation and anxiety of waiting to find out if I am pregnant, and the possibility of losing it again.

I know that's absolutely crazy x

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 15:10

@Louu99 why are you scared?

Louu99 · 02/12/2019 15:04

I'm afraid to have sex now lol we haven't done it in ages. It's probably sensible to put it off for a while xx

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 15:00

@Louu99 Ah yes you did mention that. Life really is full of ups and downs. Do what feels right with the support of your OH. That's all we can do

Louu99 · 02/12/2019 14:57

@nt1992 how're you doing lovely? Xx

Louu99 · 02/12/2019 14:56

@mellymoo86 I'm not sure. I'm having a bit of a tough time at the minute. I'm thinking of dropping out of my MA and going back to my old sciencey field job.
I'm craving the stability and regular income, and I'd be in a better position to have a baby. It's never that straight forward though so I can't jump ship just yet, even though I'm not interested and very unhappy 🤷🏼‍♀️

Life is full of ups and downs hey! X

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 14:48

@Louu99 I was wondering where you got to. Glad you kept yourself busy over the weekend. 🤗 Yeah exactly, that's reassuring at least. Are you trying this month?

Louu99 · 02/12/2019 14:29

Afternoon ladies! I'm still here. Had a break from my phone for the weekend and was super busy doing floristry things.
How are you all doing?

Sorry to hear your news @mellymoo86 but like me, at least we know everything is working!

Sending love to you all xx

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 14:23

Btw these are my opks this cycle so far. Another reason I did a pregnancy test because they were reading high wayyy to early. Now I know it's because I had the pregnancy hormone so it was picking that up.

FutureMrsSmith · 02/12/2019 13:45

@CiaraJ01 what were your OPKs like last month?

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 12:22

@CiaraJ01 Yeah. You know your cycle best so hopefully it's due this week 🤞🏽

CiaraJ01 · 02/12/2019 12:00

@mellymoo86 I've no idea 😂 I don't normally notice? so just going ny the app. It was still zero before I left so unless it was super quick peak on Satirday it might be lage, I'm just going by the Glow app. Might just DTD the rest of this week to be safe 🤞

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 11:15

@CiaraJ01 that looks low, have you used any cb tests to confirm? If this isn't normal for you maybe you ovulated a little earlier or might even be a little later. Do you normally get ovulation cramps?

CiaraJ01 · 02/12/2019 10:55

The pre mom ones?

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 10:53

@CiaraJ01 what tests are you taking? I'm assuming you should be getting stronger lines now?

CiaraJ01 · 02/12/2019 10:29

@mellymoo86 it was amazing! Such a beautiful city. Told my OH we have to go back together.
I've just took a test and it keeps coming up as negative/0. Any ideas?
Least you've another chance this year xx

mellymoo86 · 02/12/2019 10:19

@CiaraJ01 Yay glad you had a lovely time!! I love Dam. 😊 You better get started on your baby dancing today!

And yeah I'm positive now, no more bleeding so waiting for ovulation to kick in.
