We’re nearly full so made us another thread!

How is everyone?

I’m 6DPO CD31.. going to be a 40+ day cycle.. as if 30 doesn’t feel long enough!! Nothing to report aside from that.

@kalecat and @littlebee14 I am glad you are both keeping well. Hope all goes well with your scan on Thursday @kalecat.

I am currently 6dpo so in the awful tww yet again . We dtd right up to and the day after ovulation so hoping that is good enough. We tried conceive plus this month too .

@smushty14 good luck in your fertile week. I also can't seem to find another thread quite like this one . Hopefully get to see some more BFP here too . 💕

Kalecat · 17/11/2020 17:08

@Littlebee1990 I also don't really feel pregnant! Just a raging appetite and sore boobs but no sickness. I ordered a fetal Doppler for peace of mind that should arrive next week!
Yes, I have a scan this Thursday at noon 😊 so excited!

Smushty14 · 17/11/2020 16:54

@Littlebee1990 my gosh that is very lucky with no sickness - that is one bit I'm not looking forward to!

I'm CD14 today, really bloated too! Yesterday I was cramping so I'm taking that as an ovulation sign.

I mean it could just be down to the food I'm eating but hey ho 🤣 good old symptom spotting for it all!

Littlebee1990 · 17/11/2020 07:35

I’m 14+2 already! It’s flying by.. no bump yet and I was also very lucky with no sickness, I honestly don’t even feel pregnant which can be unnerving but I’m going to take it as a blessing and not complain!

How are you @smushty14?

@Kalecat 8 weeks, that’s flown also! Have you got an early scan or anything booked?

Kalecat · 17/11/2020 00:47

@dogmam I'm good!! I'm 8 weeks tomorrow, and have a scan on Thursday! Can't wait ❤️. I'm one of the lucky ones and I've yet to experience morning sickness. I've only had a few bouts of nausea after supper a few times but that's it.
@Littlebee1990 yes, how far along are you now??

Smushty14 · 16/11/2020 10:17

@dogmam I don't think there are many of us left! I'm on CD13 today so we will see what this month brings 🤞🏻

It's so hard to find a thread I can keep up with!

@Littlebee1990 how far along are you now? Are you looking forward to your next scan?

Littlebee1990 · 16/11/2020 10:10

@dogmam I so hope it happens soon for you, what does the treatment consist of?

Honestly I’ve not bought ANYTHING.. I think I’ll start to do that after the 20 week scan, getting the rest of the house decorated first and the nursery will be last but I’ve not even bought a babygrow!!!

@kalecat no I think most people have joined seperate threads now which is a shame. I'm on a couple but more specific for TTC for 12 month+ as I'm in that category now ☹ been referred to the fertility clinic so hopefully get some help. How are you doing?

@littlebee1990 how are you doing? I'm still interested to see how you're getting on! Have you started decorating the nursery yet in your new house?!

Littlebee1990 · 15/11/2020 07:44

Hahaha I totally meant “love following everyone else”, love everyone else is a bit strong.. although you’re all very lovely 😂

Littlebee1990 · 15/11/2020 07:44

Hey @Kalecat, I never set one up as got the BFP but love everyone else! Would love to know also! X

Kalecat · 15/11/2020 06:49

Hi ladies, is there a more recent thread I should join? X

Smushty14 · 04/11/2020 22:30

@dogmam Thanks lovely! I know right! We actually have two trees and two sets of decorations as when we moved into our first house it was just before Christmas and I couldn't not have a tree a decorations. Then for our second Christmas we went all out bought a big 7ft tree and the works.

I'm so pleased the turnaround has been quick and that lockdown hasn't affected it. Fingers crossed for you!

dogmam · 04/11/2020 15:12

@smushty14 pleased the house love went well and you have settled nicely, you'll have to start thinking about Christmas decor soon!

Sorry AF has arrived, another turn for you though, good luck.

We have just been referred to the fertility clinic, it's been quite a quick turn around since I first called the GP to do initial tests last month. Starting to feel very real and never imagined we would be in this position.

Smushty14 · 04/11/2020 13:53

CD1!!! I feel like that has come around quickly!

We are now all settled in our new house so let's see what this month brings 😊

dogmam · 04/11/2020 11:53

@littlebee1990 ah so pleased for you! I bet you're super excited, congratulations again xx

AnnaPosie · 01/11/2020 15:51

@acacicbluebell I've been in a similar position and it's so hard ! Especially when they get pregnant by accident , very tough but it will happen x

1992EM · 31/10/2020 14:34

@acaciabluebell I am the same . I haven't told anyone and don't plan to until I am at least 12 weeks pregnant. I wouldn't be able to handle the 100s of questions.

acaciabluebell · 31/10/2020 14:28

@1992EM Yeah definitely. Another friend of mine has just announced she's going to start TTC for #2 and I have a feeling she will fall pregnant before I do. Which is exactly the reason why I haven't told anyone I'm TTC

1992EM · 31/10/2020 14:21

@acacicbluebell it is so hard and I feel now we have being ttc that there are pregnancy announcements everywhere.

acaciabluebell · 31/10/2020 13:36

@1992EM @Dinosaurus86 I feel your pain - It's cycle 5 for me. I have a friend who got pregnant accidentally in the same month that I started trying, she's 25 weeks already - it's tough finding out about all of her milestones and thinking 'that could have been me' 😔

1992EM · 31/10/2020 09:43

@Littlebee1999 its weird how you think this time last year I wouldn't have thought twice about when I ovulated or symptoms before period. I actually thought I never used to get any🤣. Now I am completely obsessed and spot every single symptom going. I hope it happens this year. Would love to see a BFP

Littlebee1990 · 30/10/2020 19:32

Mine was cycle 5 and honestly felt like it was cycle 55, every month feels so tough doesn’t it. I have so much admiration for people who have been on this journey for months / years. completely rooting for you ladies Xx

1992EM · 30/10/2020 19:25

@Dinosaurus86 good luck . Maybe 7 will be the lucky one for us. It is so hard to think we could be in the third trimester right now . Hope you are keeping well.

Dinosaurus86 · 30/10/2020 19:21

Ah, congratulations @Littlebee1990!

I'm also on cycle 7 now @1992EM Sad and have also bought conceive plus for this month. I find it really sad to think that if this had worked right away, we could almost have a baby by now.

1992EM · 30/10/2020 19:18

@littlebee1990 I have bought conceive plus to try this month so fingers crossed.
