AF due in 3 days.

Am sure I'm out this month - negative FRER today and I have the usual PMS acne.

Just want my period to come already so that I can get this useless cycle over with and have a commiseration beer.

Just frustrating as have been taking pre-conception vitamins for months, cut out caffeine, no alcohol during TWW, have DTD every other day, tracked ovulation and with no success.

Anyone else fancy a moan whilst waiting for AF to show up?

So gave myself a grieving day* that should say! And to add in it’s a planned non working day, I haven’t taken the day off just to cry.. we need an edit button 😂

LS2020 · 23/09/2020 20:12

@mrswilso honestly please just enjoy it, even if I went back in time I would do the same again because now I know I’m only going to worry on pregnancies going forward so take the opportunity to be ignorant about and have a lovely stress free pregnancy!

Not doing too good today, had the day off work so bad myself a grieving day, lots of cries and chocolate but starting to feel better now. I just feel impatient that my FW isn’t even starting til this weekend and just want to get on with trying again. DTD is hard mentally atm tho so trying not to force as don’t want to burn out next week!

Aw thank you @LS2020 😘 I really hope you're doing okay ❤️
AF was due today/tomorrow/Friday (my last cycle was longer than usual by a few days) and I'm pleased to say she's stayed away so far, I'm only 11/12dpo today so I'm all too aware how early it is and I'm trying not to get carried away but it's exciting!

LS2020 · 23/09/2020 19:26

Awww bless you @mrswilso it’s a beautiful feeling when the symptoms kick in wishing you a really blessed 9 months ❤️ When is your af due? I really hope it’s sticky for you too 🤞🏻

mrswilso · 23/09/2020 19:23

Thank you @Kaylamc @LS2020 💕
Just told hubby and he's over the moon too 🥰
He was chatting to my dad on the phone and shouted "go daddy!" (dad got some good news about his cancer today) so after he'd hung up I walked in with the tests shouting "GO DADDY!" 🤣
I feel pregnant tonight ☺️ feel a bit podgy and definitely have a bit lower backache, burping a lot more, have had the mildest pangs of nausea today and this afternoon I had the weirdest pain in my actual vagina 🤭 lightning crotch is the best description but it's not a common early pregnancy symptom as far as I can see online...weird!
Crossing my fingers and toes that little bub is a sticky bean ✨🧡

LS2020 · 23/09/2020 18:03

@mrswilso don’t have much more to add than still so happy for you 💕💕💕💕 but do let us know how it goes!

Kaylamc · 23/09/2020 14:00

@mrswilso

Aaah thank you *@Ughmaybenot* 🥰 I'm gonna tell hubby tonight - I'll leave these out for him to find 😍
OMG so happy for you!!! Congratulations. (Also loving the nails :) ) You must let us all know how you get on tonight x

Oh @mrswilso 😭 I’m so happy for you, fantastic news!!

LS2020 · 22/09/2020 19:50

@mrswilso yeah the can you grab me one is a good idea! Could maybe lounge in bed feeling poorly and get him to grab some pregnacare vitamins (but just call them the vitamins in the green tub) from the kitchen and see if he gets it? 😂

mrswilso · 22/09/2020 19:44

It's almost like you read my mind there @LS2020 - those two were the first I thought of too!
I really like the "can you grab me...?" one 🤣 I can picture his face hehe!

LS2020 · 22/09/2020 19:42

@mrswilso yes have a sleep on it and let the news sink in 💕 ahhh I’m so happy for you 😊

Are you wanting to do it quietly at home or like make a thing of it?
Could box up the test and present it or hide it for him to find? Like say ‘oh can you get me x from the cabinet’ and it’s in there or maybe like a cute ‘I love my daddy’ onesie?

mrswilso · 22/09/2020 19:35

Ah God I forgot to say thank you so much @LS2020 💕 I'm so overwhelmed that I'm in a total daze haha!

mrswilso · 22/09/2020 19:34

@LS2020 I don't have a clue! 🤣 my brain has just gone to mush!
I'll have a think tonight and come up with a plan 😊 open to suggestions too!

LS2020 · 22/09/2020 19:07

@mrswilso ahhh I’m so chuffed for you! What you thinking of doing?

mrswilso · 22/09/2020 19:05

@LS2020 thank you! 😭 literally finished painting them like 10 minutes before I tested!
Still haven't said a word...I've just shaken off the shock! Thinking I might try to hold off and tell him in a cute way this weekend 🥰

LS2020 · 22/09/2020 18:13

Also side note, love the nails!

LS2020 · 22/09/2020 18:12

Omg @mrswilso I’ve just screamed in excitement for you!!! Congrats 💕 did you say anything??

mrswilso · 22/09/2020 17:05

Erm...so...
Due on tomorrow - no reason AT ALL this cycle to think anything otherwise.
Have been peeing on OPKs to finish my cycle (as you all know, I'm crazy)
Got a full on peak...not unusual to get an almost peak but this was proper...
Dipped a FRER aaaaand...
HOLY SHIT! I'm freaking out! Hubby's our right now but we're going for a cuppa with my parent in like half an hour waaaaaaaaahhhhh!!
HOW DO I TELL HIM!? 💕😭

LS2020 · 21/09/2020 10:26

@Ughmaybenot hope you get a chance to tease him on it 😂
Thanks lovely, got everything crossed for all of you lot too - I’ve got some forms to send off to get my internal scan done. I hope they’ll still do it with now having a CP

Ughmaybenot · 21/09/2020 10:18

This thread has honestly cracked me up this morning 😂 imagine how fantastically creepy DH would look 😂

I love how you’re feeling positive @LS2020 that’s a great outlook. We’ve all got everything crossed 😊

LS2020 · 21/09/2020 09:10

@Ughmaybenot hmm sounds like he might need to be getting comfy in the car park then 😂😂 could hire a camper van and draw the curtains?

@mrswilso yes back home now and I’m in quarantine! I was the same, had a blissful day napping and ordering take out. Glad you’ve had a restful day after all that! I’m doing a lot better. AF has finished so just mainly excited to try again. I feel a bit guilty as I’m hoping it makes me more fertile and I get another BFP off the back of it but not sure I can dwell on it much more otherwise is too depressing after 15 months if nothing comes from it!

mrswilso · 20/09/2020 14:24

LOLing at the thought of frantically running around booking hotels for a pot of baby juice 🤣

mrswilso · 20/09/2020 14:22

@LS2020 I'm really tired this week - but I've been working full time and doing a lot of DIY at the weekends for the last month so haven't really had any time to recharge. I was an utter potato yesterday and sat around doing absolutely nothing all day - feel much better for it today 🤩
How are you getting on? You're home now right?

Ughmaybenot · 20/09/2020 08:50

@LS2020 I believe he collected one from the doctors last week so who knows?! 😬 😂 hotel room would be much better, thank god one of us has some sense 😂
Oh my god imagine 😂
