TTC May/June - may the eggs be ever in your favour

@kaylsd the gin was well deserved!

I can't believe how long those waiting lists were! Where in the UK are you?? Definitely work a drive to get seen quicker!!

Just a little update for you ladies! I received my letter in the post today for my e referral to the NHS infertility clinic :')

I've just booked in and they will ring me when my appointment is but if I don't hear anything by 10 days time I've got to ring them myself! The clinic options were 4 in the catchment area, my local trust has a waiting list of 52 weeks to start treatment so I've opted for another trust which is just 25 minutes away with a waiting list of 27 week to start treatment 🤓 luckily it was the only one out of the four which didn't have a huge waiting list! I was quite shocked when I read into them tbh 🙈🙈🙈

Absolutely over the moon for our graduates today with their BFPs something must have been in the water for this thread ;) I'm thinking @minthumbugs laid back approach may be proof it's beneficial! Sorry I've not had chance to catch up properly just been in a pub and treated myself to a rhubarb crumble gin and have been baby sitting my hubs best friends little girls, 2&5 year old, absolute cuties 💞💞

@CycloGoose im sorry to hear about your hubs hunny I hope he's okay soon, hopefully it's a quicky job in the hospital for him 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🙈

I'm so excited for you! I hope everything goes smoothly for you, exciting times ahead. Although I have to say I am not going to miss the first trimester at all!!!!xx

I'm so sorry @lucea87. I'm sorry for putting my foot in it 😔 that's really tough but I'm so happy that your little one is growing well ❤️

@minthumbugs congratulations! Now just the rest of us to go!

Thank you so much @lucea87! It's so nice when you pop back on, it's funny I was just asking about you the other day as I knew you had your scan coming up in may. So glad to hear it all went well, how have you been keeping? Can't be easy doing double the work 🤗

Oh my gosh @CycloGoose gave me the good news and I had to come and say HUGE congratulations @minthumbugs 👏🏻 👏🏻 I hope everything all goes well for you 🎉 🎉 xx

Hope all of you lovely ladies are keeping well. Sending you all massive egg vibes!!!xx

@Purpleshoes123 and @minthumbugs

Congratulations to you both! I'm delighted to come on here and see there are more positives! So happy for you, and it gives the rest of us hope too! xx

Thank you everyone 🥰🥰

And of course here with a meme, meme queen @kaylsd 🤣👑 my fingers are crossed so tightly 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

OMG OMG OMG the biggest congratulations for you sweetheart I'm absolutely over the moon for you both!!! I know it'll be natural for you to be anxious but I'm hoping everything goes smoothly for your rainbow baby! @minthumbugs praying for a sticky baby for you 💖🥰🥰

Oh my god @minthumbugs don't be silly! I'm really pleased for you! Congratulations!

Thank you to everyone else for your kind comments 😊

@minthumbugs OMG that's amazing!!! Congratulations :-D and @Purpleshoes123 as well. So many graduations this month
@CycloGoose hope hubby is ok!

@minthumbugs oh my! Congratulations, so happy for you :)

I'm such a fiend. I just got out my non FRER and obviously it's a BFN! (I can't crack with my one Clearblue because I'm not meant to be testing without my husband there too and he knows about that one 😂)

I'm getting slight line eyes with the negative image but only because I've started so hard at the damn thing 😭

I had the strongest line like 5 days before my period was due with my son. So frustrating! But I'm doing it to my damn self 😂

Oh no @CycloGoose, I hope it's not too serious??

Thank you @CycloGoose 😭 you were totally right with the lines on the second one even when I couldn't see it! This is the earliest I've ever had a BFP - last period was 5 weeks ago today and I think I ovulated 2 weeks ago today so perhaps am just right on the border of 1-2 and 2-3 🤞🏻 my little squirrel!! 🤣

Oh no is your hubby ok? What happened?! Hope everything is alright! ❤️

I know @Rinylou I was going to wait until tomorrow morning since yesterday was negative but after Purpleshoes' news this morning I thought oh well the worst that happens is its negative and I have no more tests for tomorrow 🤷‍♀️ the devil on your shoulder is saying do it 😉 but the angel is saying wait for FMU!

@minthumbugs OMG congrats!! So much good news suddenly, its so heartening!!

Making it super hard for me to hold off testing again though 😂

@CycloGoose @kaylsd @KatieLooLa and to everyone else of course...

I didn't know whether or not to post this today... I got my BFP this morning!!!! ❤️ From yesterday's BFN, I now have 1-2 weeks on a CB digi. Not sure if it should be more. It doesn't feel real and I'm so anxious!

@purpleshoes123 I hope you don't feel I'm trying to take the shine off your news, I'm so happy to be joining you! 🥰

@Purpleshoes123 CONGRATULATIONS!! I was wondering if you'd tested today and now my toddler is distracted by a snack bowl and film I thought I'd log on and check. Wonderful news!! ❤❤❤

I've successfully not tested today yet... Still symptom spotting though. Randomly got EWCM again which is new?? And last night while having a bit of a BD (for pleasure not duty at 12dpo ) I had to try about 4 different positions because my cervix was super uncomfortable and tender (not to disparage my husband, but not a usual problem).

Still trying to hold out until Thursday when AF is due before I use that last test. That will be 15dpo and I would have usually spotted and cramped all the day before. So weird feeling so positive and negative about my chances this cycle all at the same time.

Anyone got any insight on the recurrence of the EWCM? I've been creamy for a while (yellow tinged at times) but definitely EW and stretchy all day today. So much so I did an opk just to check I wasn't ovulating but a definite negative!

@Purpleshoes123 congrats so nice to see a BFP! Let's hope the first of many on this thread for us :)

It is such a personal subject TTC and agree unless approached by that person then I wouldn't ask. I haven't told anyone of our plans as don't want any unnecessary pressure from either side of families or friends for that matter. Glad I found this site so can offload some chat though:-)

Hope everyone has a lovely Tuesday! Still working from home for me which can be lonely and unless super busy I do a lot of my over thinking haha 😄

@Veronika13 @minthumbugs agree. I mean its something so personal that until someone opens up about it its not something that should be asked for these reasons
1- they probably arent trying
2- they are and waiting
3-they are bur having fertility issues and getting pressurised.
If only ppl learn to mind their business

Yes totally @Veronika13, it's such a heated and emotive topic! Just after my second MC people were saying 'oh you can just try again' and I was absolutely distraught because OH wasn't sure if he was on board yet. Something so innocuous can really hurt. No idea what's going on behind closed doors so the best shout is to wait for people to bring it up with you! X

@KatieLooLa sorry I missed the pics, what a good job! That sounds like such a fun night 😁

@CycloGoose @kaylsd
It was a proper giggle, did the first lot of makeup after the first couple drinks, our other gay friend came shortly after with more alcohol. Watched Eurovision fails on YouTube, had cocktails.
OH walked in while I’m doing the 2nd lot of makeup, just looks at him and says “Oh, hello Chloe” and then joined in with the drinking.
Will definitely have to do that again 😂
