@Minster2012 Oh I know! I would LOVE to just go into a shop without worrying right now and browse around not a care in the world! Also having to stick to more basic meals due to OH doing shopping. Bless him, he's getting a lot better but I am getting tired of thinking whether he would know where to find a certain item in the shop and whether it's essential enough that I can be bothered explaining 🤣

@Newbie0818 I have never been pregnant, never had a 'scare' that I might have been therefore never even taken a pregnancy test, all a new world to me!

@Adrianoska Thank you! Just getting a bit sick of being in confinement I think and the added anxiety of TWW. OH keeps suggesting I go on more walks to just get out of the house but the walks stress me out when there's people out due to having to think whether I am far enough away and whether I should cross the road. We are lucky to live in a small village where that doesn't happen too often but maybe I should take his advice and get out there with my audio book and relax a little!

@Newbie0818 i haven’t ever been pregnant..not even a scare during wilder days

@Newbie0818 I’ve never been pregnant before either. Sorry to hear your still having such a long cycle!

@Adrianoska fingers crossed for you! It’s so hard trying to juggle your own emotions and your partners ❤️

@Newbie0818 me! Me and my partner are currently trying for our first. I am now 29 and spent 15 to 28 on the pill which I’m hoping hasn’t ruined my chances! Been TTC since October 2019.

💕

@Ltay2 sorry to hear you were emotional yesterday etc. It is really hard sometimes. How long have you been TTC for? Sorry I must have missed your story and now I can't find it back.. 🌸🌸🌸
I am also 6dpo. Crazy times.

I am especially worried about my husband and his feelings now. He is almost certain that this month we scored. Poor thing, I don't want to see him being devastated 😔

♥️

@Newbie0818 goodness CD46 that must be stressful in itself! I have no idea how long my cycles are. So I might be the same!

I’ve not been pregnant before, well, I was for a short time in Feb/March. In my nearly 36 years of life since I was 17 when I went on deprovera I’ve now only ever had 3 periods. So there you go! I’m very weird & totally faulty!!

@Newbie0818 Me! Trying for my first, my partner had a vasectomy reversal so we could try (he has children from previous relationship) so we have that added stress in the mix! And thank you! I think I’m definitely out but will wait and see, if not into another month!

Just out of curiosity, has anyone else on here NOT been pregnant at all before?

@Skyla01 I’ll have reached my longest cycle length on Saturday (cd46). I had a dream I got a BFP last night 😭 I came off the pill in August, so 8 months now?

@Ltay2 if you think about what else goes in there, i wouldn’t worry 😂

Morning @RobinRose I still have hope for you! And if not, brand new cycle to start with ✨

@Minster2012 your approach is definitely better 😂 I think for now my DH is happy with the plan but I’m sure he’ll soon tell me he’s not a performing monkey

Oh god yeah I totally understand @Ltay2 I’m on shielding, well High isolation or I should be shielding from DS & hubby in theory so not left house in 7 weeks due to MC & I’m like “I would love to a shop” 😂choose my own food I can totally imagine it’s soul destroying. I just have to do bits of work on my phone where I can (usually in a field behind our house with dogs & child running round) & see no one.

@Minster2012 Yes I am working at home this is now my 5th week of being confined to my makeshift dining table desk, and my OH is out of the house 8am-9pm Tues-Sat working long days in what is at the moment an extremely stressful environment, so just me and the cats all on our own! I am getting sick of it now, the 45 minute commute to my office with actual people inside (after lockdown) is now looking like a dream 😂

@Ltay2 glad your feeling a bit better today! This TTC journey isn’t easy is it. Fingers crossed for you 😊

@localbunny thank you, it’s great to be at a similar stage to someone & have such lovely ladies around, even if it doesn’t work though because my cycles are no where near regular yet I’ve no idea what my body will do but all fun & games! Time is just going soooooo slowly! & I remember the two TWW from before & they were horrendous so 😬😬

@Dixie17 get on it! Or him 😂that’s great! I don’t think I’m going to tell my DH when it is though I’ve said “btw my supposedly fertile window is from this weekend so that’s good” so we are having a 3 day break off DTD currently! That will be the only break mind as that’s only CD8 😂

@Ltay2 are you working or at home? Being at home currently if no DC the TWW gosh would drag I can imagine

Woke up to a solid smiley face! Told DH to gear up for 3 days at least

@Minster2012 I have everything crossed for you. Sounds like one hell of a journey and you are so positive 💪🏽Your best friend was your surrogate-that is incredible!

I think feeling for your cervix is fine if you have clean fingers (a lot worse goes up there) I just don’t know how useful it is?

@RobinRose Good morning! I am feeling happier and more positive today. Had such an emotional day yesterday don't know why! I am now 6DPO so just a waiting game until the earliest point I can test, which with the tests I have would be Tuesday.

Morning guys! How’s everyone getting on? Still spotting and cramping today so expecting af either later today/tomorrow! 👎

@Minster2012 so sorry to hear about your MC, definitely understand why you're giving it a shot during clinic closure. Sending lots of baby dust to you!

@Skyla01 @Newbie0818 Thank you! I always wash hands first so hopefully will be ok. I'll try to check every other day just to minimise risk.

@Minster2012 Thank you, I’m 12dpo today. Definitely harder to work out when sleeping is a bit all over the place isn’t it? How are you feeling today?

Morning ladies! Sounds like there are some promising signs out there.

@Minster2012 how many dpo are you? Hope it's just too early for you to get a positive.

@Ltay2 yes wash hands first! I think cervix is meant to go low with AF approaching but stay high if you are pregnant. But also read it doesn't go high again until at least 16dpo. So I try not to check in the TWW!

@Newbie0818 how long until you reach your longest cycle length? And how long are you off the pill? Took 6 months for my cycles to regulate.

@Minster2012 sorry about your MC :( I really have my fingers crossed for you!

@MoonW also not sure about temping, but it’s not over until af turns up 🤞🏼

@Adrianoska I’ve not heard about discharge from nipples, could be a sign?
@Ltay2 I wouldn’t worry about infection with checking cervix as long as you have short nails and wash your hands thoroughly beforehand ☺️

@Adrianoska I was worried about infection risk too so now that I actually know what I'm feeling for I'm not going to check cervix position very often!

@MoonW def wait on that FRER, everything crossed, how many days dpo are you? I don’t know much about the temping, I’m just trying to start with that but my sleep isn’t good enough really to do it reliably
