I'm 31 TTC #1 after a MC in March this year, AF has just finished and I'm on CD6 and all ready to go for my 2nd full cycle.

This month I will be tracking with opks, CB connected, BBT and following SMEP plan.

@SmileyT what is this wizardry? Am I going to be out buying pineapple and sesame seeds now? Or do you just enjoy munching on them? 😂

Hooray for all your peaks!! I’m on the other side of ovulation, sitting and waiting with gallons of grapefruit juice 🙄. Just want the fertile week to begin so it feels like we are doing something.

@Hayleylou89 I get motion sickness a lot anyway, even when I’m not moving. Threw me off the last two cycles, so I can only imagine how bad it is in pregnancy 🤢. I look forward to having a good old happy moan about it 🤞🏼
I’m determined not to test until I’m late. Stop me if I start umming and ahhing and wanting to test. Especially after testing last month with the nausea and boobs - I think I might be imagining symptoms. I feel positive and hopeful now, but also don’t want to see a BFN, so I’d rather AF just appear if we don’t catch it this month, so I can try to keep a level head 🤯 (is there such a thing when TTC?) 😂 xxx

Thanks ladies x interview went ok .. did best I could :) it's for a promotion in my current company I've been there a year and just thought I'd give it a go! Didnt actually think I'd get to this stage had to do an assessment first. But not too stressed if I dont get it as I like what I'm doing now but thought why not try!:) x x
@Hayleylou89 yah will DTD today tomorrow and then it's the weekend so probably end up doing It couple times over weekend too 😁🤞🤞🌈🌈

@Renna ooh how did the interview go? And yay to peak 👌🏾

@VP91x pineapple core actually isn't bad I thought it would be really hard but very similar to the fleshy bit, although DP thinks I might have an allergy as throat gets itchy but whatever still ate it

@2020wish Im ok, will hopefully feel alot less anxious if everything goes well once iv had my scan on monday but so far, still feeling very nervous about it, weve got the step kids at the weekend so hopefully itll go nice and quick with entertaining them xx

@Renna ahh fab that happened with me i got an afternoon peak least u know uv got the full 36 hour window to dtd 🤞🏻 xx

@SmileyT @elliew818 @renna yeah definitely like feeling hungover cos u kinda want to eat the world but same time the thought of it makes u want to vom 😂.
You all have this to look forward to again soon girlies cos it will be happening for you all 🌈💖💙

VP91x · 04/06/2020 19:08

@Renna how was your interview? Hope you get the job!

VP91x · 04/06/2020 19:07

@MichT4 I finally got the grapefruit juice!! 🤣🙌🙌 Feel like I have acheived something. Do I drink it by the bucketload? Haha

@DisneyMummySince2010 fantastic news and what a lovely due date to have ❤️ wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy xx

@Hayleylou89 ah, the nausea is crap isn't it. I had such crappy sickness with my daughter till about 20 weeks. Hope you are not suffering too much. Won't be testing until the end of the month xx

@elliew818 missing the sunshine so much! Today has been so miserable 😭

@HopeForRainbowbaby hope your peak comes quickly!!

@SmileyT 😂😂 how's the pineapple core treating you? It doesn't sound pleasant at all!!

Ladies, I have had such a long afternoon. My little girl has been an absolute nightmare today. Tantrums from hell, and just generally being unpleasant. She is normally quite well behaved. Then my cat got injured and so had to get a vet to see her, she might need further treatment they are trying to avoid surgery to close the wound. Definitely having a G&T tonight!! Xx

Renna · 04/06/2020 18:58

@SmileyT another supplement to add to your rattling pill pots lol xxxx well try anything aye haha x x hope the next week goes quick for you xx

@Hayleylou89 oh and I wont test unless AF is late so that'll be in like 2 weeks from now around 19th or something xxx 🤞🤞🤞

Renna · 04/06/2020 18:56

Congrats @DisneyMummySince2010 remember you from the other threads xx wishing you a healthy pregnancy xx

@Hayleylou89 got my static around lunch time:) was still flashing this morning but noticed cheapies getting darker so had my interview this morning and then re done a cheapie and CB afterwards and got my peak 😁👌
Been drinking shit loads of grapefruit juice the last week .. got my fert illy and pre seed ready lol
🤞🤞🤞🤞
Yeah I had the bad sickenes all day too ... I'd say was like feeling constantly hungover too xx does feel rubbish but itll all be worth it 😘😘 xxxx

Niisa · 04/06/2020 18:53

@SmileyT crying over pineapple & sesame seeds 😂😂

@DisneyMummySince2010 congratssss

SmileyT · 04/06/2020 18:43

Congrats @DisneyMummySince2010 it's always good to see some positive outcomes especially when you're feeling like it may never happen 🙈 the only one I'm not taking of those supps is seven seas might give that a go 🤗

@Hayleylou89 although it may not feel great bet it's nice your body is telling you it's getting to work in there ☺️

I'm currently in that boring first week of TWW when you know it's too early for any signs or to test and there is nothing much else you can do apart from eat pineapple and sesame seeds 😂 good luck to those approaching ovulation xx

@hopeforrainbowbaby fingers crossed the lines gets darker over the next couple of days xx

2020wish · 04/06/2020 18:37

@HopeForRainbowbaby fingers crossed ovulation is soon. I hope mine is soon

DisneyMummySince2010 · 04/06/2020 18:34

Thank you @Hayleylou89 @HopeForRainbowbaby @HE88 @2020wish xxx

HopeForRainbowbaby · 04/06/2020 18:21

@DisneyMummySince2010 Congrats ! Wishing you healthy and amazing pregnancy journey 😍

Ladies I am only 10CD ( post MC) but I see darker second line on OVs ( maybe not yet a peak but it is getting there) so excited ☺️

HE88 · 04/06/2020 18:01

@elliew818 thank you just waiting on my dinner coming and going to have a glass of wine to celebrate 😊. Xx

I think I might have ovulated late last night. I got my peak at 5pm that was the only test I did yesterday then later on at night I started getting lots of niggling pains on my left side which is very unusual for me as it is always the right side I get pain around ovulation. When I got up this morning the pains had all but gone. Is this quite normal to ovulate so quickly after your peak?

@IndieMorg welcome to the thread sorry to hear about your loss I hope you get your bfp soon. Xx
@Jazper sorry it was a bfn fingers crossed you get that bfp. Xx
@DisneyMummySince2010 congratulations on your bfp what lovely news. Xx

elliew818 · 04/06/2020 17:48

@Hayleylou89 it’s hard not to complain when you feel so rough- I liken it to being hungover but travel sickness is pretty accurate too!
Thanks for the anniversary wishes and hope you had a nice day @HE88
Welcome @IndieMorg 👋 and your DH is right, people rarely talk about losses I guess that’s why we’re all talking about it on here with others who understand.
@WellHurrahAndHuzzah that really made me giggle about your neighbour’s cat!
@Jazper so sorry you had a BFN, might be too early to tell still though.
Anyone else missing the sunshine already? We were supposed to be flying to Spain yesterday and because we were having so much good weather I wasn’t too disappointed...now though 🙄 I know, I know first world problems eh!

2020wish · 04/06/2020 17:44

I think my peak is on or around Monday going by my app.. but then last month I ovulated on CD19 which would be next Friday. Hopefully testing around the 22/23rd.

Is all going well with you @Hayleylou89

Hayleylou89 · 04/06/2020 17:36

@DisneyMummySince2010 congrats on ur bfp! Lovely news! Xx

How is everyone doing have u had ur peak yet @renna and when will everyone be testing so i can get excited.

Im feeling very nauseous today but said i wouldn't moan but i forgot what this felt like and its like car sickness all day long 🤢 xx

2020wish · 04/06/2020 17:23

@DisneyMummySince2010 congrats on your BFP!

DisneyMummySince2010 · 04/06/2020 17:13

Thank you @MichT4

MichT4 · 04/06/2020 17:07

Aww @DisneyMummySince2010 that is lovely, wonderful news. Thank you for sharing and huge congratulations. Definitely gives hope 😌

Sending you all the best wishes for a healthy, happy pregnancy 💕🥰 xx

DisneyMummySince2010 · 04/06/2020 16:17

Hi Everyone,

I’m wanting to give everyone a little bit of hope 🌈 I’ve been on the ttc after mc threads since Jan and I always found it helpful hearing people’s good outcomes!

Well... I got my BFP today 💛 after a natural mc in May 2019 and an ectopic in October 2019 where I lost my tube as well I finally got the BFP!!

I’m so happy but so nervous 🤞 due on my wedding anniversary ❤️

I’m wishing you all loads and loads of luck and baby dust and hopefully this news will give you a bit of hope that it will happen!

I did lots of things different this cycle, I took extra iron and vit C tabs and a Bcomplex (To extend my LP) on top of my seven seas ttc multi vit.

🌈☀️ good luck ladies xxx

MichT4 · 04/06/2020 16:02

@VP91x 😂😂😂 I must say, I’m starting to like it.

I’m intrigued about it too, though I’m pretty sure his levels are ok. @2020wish he looked up the side effects before and they seemed fine, I was just in one of my moods where I told him he was being careless 😂. But I actually think they might be a boost if anything. Even so, I’m going to get him to show me so I can have a woman look, instead of the notorious man look.

I get wound up with the ‘just relax and stop thinking about it and it’ll happen’, as if you can just switch off thinking about it. Stupidity 😂

VP91x · 04/06/2020 15:55

@MummyMilla wow, I had absolutely no idea that's what the statistics were like at 40. I hope you both have all the luck for this month.

@WellHurrahAndHuzzah I hope you are feeling a little better, I had a day like that the other day. Have you got something you can treat yourself too or maybe a nice takeaway? ❤️

It is all so overwhelming. My best friend also said the other day 'just keep positive and try not to think about it' I just agreed so I could change the conversation. I know she was trying to be kind, but she has never tried for a baby and they don't want to try until end of next year so, she really doesn't understand. I felt so frustrated at her which I then felt guilty about.

Made me laugh that you said even the cat is pregnant 😅

@DBTJ looks positive, happy DTD!

@2020wish I hope the blood tests all went okay for you today and it wasn't too traumatic trying to get some access! I am so interested in this HCG stuff, but don't think I could ever convince my partner to try it. How much is it etc?

@MichT4 forgot the bloody grapefruit juice again. Must go later.
