Afternoon ladies! Here we are, once again, biting our nails down to the quick during the TWW! 😂

We’re TTC after losing our first baby at 24 weeks in January 💔 but trying to stay positive, even though we’re now on cycle 5. Lots of frustrations around this as everybody else appears to be popping them out easily!!

I am trying to distract myself through dieting and healthy eating, theory being that if I’m focused on not eating crap, and googling my next workout, I’m not wasting tests and symptom spotting... 😂

Really really hoping to have a successful month this month and test early on 21st, because how lovely would it be to tell my wonderful husband I’m pregnant on Father’s Day? Well aware AF isn’t due until 24th, but a girl can dream, right?

Anyway, feel free to share your crazy with me here, or give me hope with some success stories! Also, I am very much a fan of “line eyes” threads, so hit me up with your squinters!! 🧐

Happy waiting, girls! 🥰

1 DPO for me too. Trying for my second DC, long long awaited. Sadly had a MC last year.
We have some issues with TTC (husband has ED), so chances are slim but fingers crossed this is our month.
Would love it for father’s day!

@emiliet123 I’m feeling desperately impatient! This is cycle 8 of TTC number 2, our son was conceived on cycle 2 so this is all new to me. Plus lockdown would have been the perfect scenario for me to be pregnant as I was housebound during my last pregnancy anyway.

My husband bought the wrong bread, so I figured I might as well eat some anyway rather than it going to the bin. Bread turned into chocolate which turned into ice cream! In helping our TTC journey I’ve lost 12lb in the last 8 weeks, my husband has lost 14lb. Literally trying anything that could help.

Hey @mansah2 😊 fingers crossed for you! How long have you been TTC for? It’s such a rollercoaster!

Thank you @Slippingcareer 💖 I always feel like I am trying to aim for those “milestones” whether it’s a birthday or Father’s Day or an anniversary - I’m a drama Queen so I liiiiive for that sort of announcement 😂 how are you feeling? What chucked you off the wagon?! 😖

I’m so sorry for your loss, that is heartbreaking.

I’m 1 day behind you with AF due 25th. I did think about what a great treat it would be for Father’s Day but realistically I won’t know then.

I was on a healthy eating buzz too, until today!

I'm 1dpo too I guess. Had a static smiley on my opk last night but dtd the day before and today as well. Hopefully we get the good news we've been hoping to hear

Just thought I’d add to my original post as well... somebody must be having a laugh as my fertility crystals bracelet (shhhh I’ll try anything) has just arrived on day one of the TWW!

Fate or just poking fun?! 😖

Hello @helllobambinos! Thanks 🥰 oooh I will pop by and take a look but it looks so busy already haha I might get lost in there! 🙈

My husband went above and beyond for my Mother’s Day, he didn’t want me to feel like less of a mum because I didn’t have my baby, so I would love to celebrate him in a big way too!

Hey! Really sorry about your loss Flowers

I'm due to test on the 24th as well! I'm on this thread for people due to test the same week if you fancied popping along - everyone is lovely!

I actually didn't realise that fathers day was next week! Would be amazing to get a BFP for that, fingers crossed Smile
