Does anyone have a link to the new thread? Maybe @WillowRose1411 ?

@Janey3090
March thread would be better😊

Janey3090 · 17/02/2021 13:43

Hi all, as of today I'm in my first ever TWW, so it's exciting/nervy times as myself and DP have decided to TTC, eeek!

Is it ok to join this thread, or would the March thread be better as not expecting AF to arrive until March anyway... so March will bring round 2 as I just don't think we'll have concieved first time. (Very lucky if so!) xx

@MeltingSnowflake

Ladies, I was still in TWW until this morning - period was due, so I tested. And I’m only bloody pregnant!!! 🙈😄

ALL my earlies were negative. I shook for a full hour afterwards - I was convinced my period was on the way as my symptoms were identical to my period arriving. Terrified it’s a false positive or it’s going to go away.

Thank you for all the hand holding - wish lots of BFPs for everyone! Xxx

Congratulations, bet that is just the most wonderful feeling!! xx

@MeltingSnowflake Yaaaay HUGE congrats!! x

Inthetww · 17/02/2021 12:52

@MeltingSnowflake congratulations 👏 💖 that's lovely news for you.
BFN for me this morning.
Not hopeful this is my month.
Think I'm out

MeltingSnowflake · 17/02/2021 12:36

JessWi · 16/02/2021 11:56

I am! But if ok I’ll join the new thread as feels a little lonely here now!

Cakelaur · 16/02/2021 10:00

Ladies, @WillowRose1411 has created a new thread for us:
Baby bandwagon March ttc,

So hop along and join!

Anyone testing this morning?? Who's left in the TWW?

Cakelaur · 15/02/2021 23:18

@WillowRose1411 what about "the one where we all get our bfps"
Or "on track for mother day bfps"

I've gained a ton of weight since I had my second in April 2020. I'd like to shift a few kgs too... but worried about messing with ovulation. That's my excuse anyway! 😂

My next af is due on Mother's Day! 🙈 although I think it will be sooner than that. Cos ff is guessing a 27 day cycle, usually I'm more like 24/25... we'll see. I'm excited!!

@KazMumTo2 I’m with you on the weight gain. Im a tall-ish size 14 BUT I am also healthy. ‘Obese’ doesn’t necessarily mean unhealthy- we are all different shapes and sizes. By all means eating healthily and exercising is always a good idea but it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to lose a tonne of weight to be truly healthy inside. I’m no expert but that my view anyway 😊

KazMumTo2 · 15/02/2021 20:42

@Mellous me too on the chocolate front! Just didn’t quite realise how much I had put on until I added my weight into the app; being told BMI was obese did shake me up I must admit! I’ve only done today temp testing; looking forward to it being another signal towards ovulation like the OPKs...hopefully they match up and are in sync?!? X

Mellous · 15/02/2021 20:38

@KazMumTo2 also a newbie to temp tracking, trying it out for the first time this cycle and I’m already quite enjoying seeing the graph etc haha!

Ugh I’ve also gained during the last year or so of lockdowns. It’s sooo hard not to. I’m fairly active but it’s the chocolate at the weekends and evenings that gets me 🙈 I’m a huge chocoholic xx

1sttime21 · 15/02/2021 20:36

@JessWi
Its crazy trying to plan in the middle of all this🙄 so ready for cancelling and just going to the registry office

JessWi · 15/02/2021 20:28

Nope not really. Had the usual sore boobs, mild cramps a couple of days ago but now nothing!! Feel as good as ever...very strange.

@1sttime21 I’m in the same boat, was due to get married this September but we’ve just decided to postpone until spring 2022, so we’ve been wedding planning during all this craziness too!

KazMumTo2 · 15/02/2021 20:25

@WillowRose1411 my husband used to box (it’s in his blood) but now we are just fans!

@Cakelaur love the names...wow 3 under 3 that will be a challenge 😳

So I’m on cd4 today and I started recording my BBT (never done it before but it sounded interesting)! I’ve also worked out my BMI and I’ve put on so much weight during lockdown that I’m officially in the obese category; I don’t feel obese but 170cm and 14st 5 apparently works out to an obese BMI 😔 could be another factor limiting my conception chances so a healthy eating month for me I think! I’m going to start dtd every other day from this week until my next period (if there’s one night we are too tired then hopefully there will still be enough swimmers to make it) and I’m going to start taking OPKs from next Monday! My cycles are very up and down at the moment so don’t want to rely on what I think ovulation date will be!

Looks like a few of us in the running for a Mother’s Day gift 🤞🏻 X

Mellous · 15/02/2021 20:22

@Cakelaur I had the same feeling when af arrived for me this weekend! Never thought I’d be so pleased to see her haha. I’m doing okay though. Got a bit upset this evening thinking about my mc but just ready to focus on this new cycle. I’m cd3 @WillowRose1411 xx

1sttime21 · 15/02/2021 20:22

@WillowRose1411
Not till November next year so he's driving me mad trying to plan it just now😂 bad enough trying to plan the wedding in the middle of a pandemic
