The Turkey Baster Gang (gobble gobble)

Thank you all and thank you for new thread @eloiseislost. I am not very excited yet, want to wait for my first scan. So so hope this one will stick!

I started the new thread here:

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/4140723-Yogurt-pot-yuppies-sexy-basters-and-UFO-discs-part-3

Best to move the conversation there, at the rate we are posting, this one will lock in less than a day! 😂

@AdriannaP congratulations. This is great news. Really hope this is a sticky one. I know how anxious it can feel after that BFP so I hope you are able to relax a bit and have my fingers crossed for this bean.

@Sydney1986x good luck with the new tests. Let us know how you get on!

Look forward to seeing you all on the new thread x

Huge congratulations to you @AdriannaP - this is great news and I really will keep everything crossed it's a sticky bean and you have a great pregnancy. Thanks for sharing the details of your cycle too- I always like to know these things so I can try and emulate the success!
I am feeling so positive about all these great BFP stories on here- it's really fab .

@Janefx40 my DH is also miserable without booze which is why we had to go damp not dry! I am v proud of him- he is making such big effort. Although he has already planned which belgian beers he's treating himself too on Friday when my FW officially ends. I don't begrudge him though!

@eloiseislost that is a brilliant name! Nothing sexier than a SI syringe

the UFO discs just makes it complete.

I think that’s a wonderful name for the new thread

@ComebackQueen I love it! 😂
Let's add something about the soft discs too, something like:
"Yogurt pot yuppies, sexy syringes and UFO discs - part 3"

@eloiseislost maybe, yogurt pot yuppies, sexy syringers 🤣🤣

Wow I just realised we are nearing 1000 posts again, we will need to start a third thread! Any ideas for names?!

Haha @Janefx40 I’m glad I wasn’t the only one, I’m much more knowledgeable thanks to the wonderful people on this thread.

Massive congratulations to @Cathie102 @Birchybirch @bigsweetpotato @AdriannaP - hoping it sticks and everyone goes on to have a healthy, peaceful and successful pregnancy.

So glad to see this method has been successful for many of you.

Thank you @AdriannaP & @Bluey18 just ordered the cheapies with my partners Amazon prime! Need to know for sure by Friday as have my covid vaccine booked in for Saturday morning! Xx

Ah congratulations @AdriannaP I'm really hoping this will be your rainbow baby 🌈 Got everything crossed for you for a healthy and happy 9 months x

@Sydney1986x I buy them on Amazon, these for example www.amazon.co.uk/50-Ultra-Early-Pregnancy-earlier/dp/B0026RKBWM/ref=mp_s_a_1_18?dchild=1&keywords=pregnancy+tests&sprefix=preg&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1611046950&sr=8-18

I don’t want to know how much I have sent on tests in the last years. At least £150 so far on Clearblue ovulation kits 🤯😭

@AdriannaP So happy to hear about your BFP, I will have everything crossed for you for your scan at 6 weeks X

@Sydney1986x From experience clear blue are actually pretty rubbish, I got BFNs from them when I was a week late when expecting my daughter. A first response is probably your best bet (available in pharmacies but v expensive) but I agree the internet cheapies are also good if you can get your hands on them. Good luck 🤞

@AdriannaP I used 2x clear blues and a similar one from b&m but not the cheapies.. I don’t have any of those. Where can I get some from or will they only be available online?

I didn’t realise the cheap ones might be better! I’m about £30 down in preg tests 😂

Over the moon for you @AdriannaP 🌈

We have so much positivity in this group and I have a great feeling about 2021 💫 xx

Sorry i missed you said Clearblue. For compulsive testers like me I recommend cheapies from Amazon. 15 or 20 in a pack and they are very sensitive.

@Sydney1986x thank you!
Which test did you use? Maybe try again with a cheapie tomorrow morning, they are very sensitive.

@eloiseislost @bigsweetpotatol @primrosechill
Thank you all so much. I have cried so many tears over my MC and I really hope this long and painful journey is ending now and we will have our long awaited 🌈

I will keep you all posted and continue following this thread and your journeys. Wishing lots of babydust to everyone waiting for their BFP.
❤️❤️❤️

I know right! I ovulated on 2nd Jan (pretty sure), I don’t do temping as I dive around the bed all night/ have lucid dreams but do OPKs x

@Sydney1986x How frustrating!! Do you know when you ovulated? Are you temping and/or using OPKs?

Congratulations @AdriannaP and Kathie 💕

I am now 3 days late AF.. I look a test yesterday morning (clear blue) and BFN. This is really unlike me to have such a late period. What’s wrong with me 🙈 it feels like torture waiting!

Have any of you been in this situation before? Do I wait a couple more days & then test again? Xx

I've come back a page to refresh what everyone was up to yesterday! Happy to see people have ovulated and gotten peaks and are officially in their twws! 🤞🤞🤞
LOL at the biology lesson. Nobody knows these things to start with, they definitely didn't cover it in sexual education at school (aka how not to get pregnant lessons - I could have done with the opposite!). 😁
Also re. Names. We've got a little list for a boy and list for a girl as we needed something to do whilst waiting forever for a bfp. Since writing this list we've lost four of the names to other people's babies, including my absolute favourite for a girl. 🙄 I'm sure I won't care at all when we finally have a baby lol so that's what I'm holding onto! 😊

It's nice to have some good news about on this thread! 😊
@Cathie102 that's really lovely, congratulations ❤️
@primrosechill I'm jealous you're so far into your tww! 🤞🤞 Glad you're still lurking. Hope you're feeling ok!

We haven't heard from Oilyoily in ages, I hope she's okay. She'll have 800 posts to read when she comes back!

I had a very emotional 'woe is me' break down day yesterday with a bit of random crying but already feel more positive today. I THINK maybe I ovulated yesterday or Sunday. My BBT is on the way back up as is my RHR but mostly judging this by EWCM, suddenly feeling sick with acid reflux yesterday and my boobs/nipples being really sore. On Sunday after SI, I noticed some blood on the bed 😳 (from me) and then had some blood later on in the cup when I took it out. It's the most blood I've had from possible ovulation spotting and freaked me out slightly. I'm CD 22 today so I better have already ovulated 🤨😒

Congratulations @AdriannaP 💕
You'll be in my prayers, I hope this is your rainbow! 🌈 🤞🏼

Congrats @AdriannaP that's a strong line!! and also congrats @Cathie102 your post was lovely and I feel exactly the same about this group. So much advice and support, and helped me feel 'normal'.
Fingers crossed for everyone x
