Tactical seduction and POAS addicts

@MrsCristianoX honestly the faffing drives me insane 🙄 he's lucky I manage to sort out DS most of the time or we would never get anywhere!

@TheBirdintheCave lol he's gone to work already hopefully this evening he will be better 😆🤞🏼

Great news @theblueflowers :D It must have been amazing to see that heartbeat :)

Husband and I had a 'wet run' with the Ferti-lily tonight. I don't think there's any chance for us to conceive naturally now but I bought it so I'm going to use it anyway.

Still no sign of O. CM is very strange at the moment. Lots of creamy white but with random bits of egg white in it.

We booked our fertility check appointment today for the 16th. Not too long to wait. They offered us this week but I'm still Covid positive so we couldn't take that one 🙄

@mummatara Sorry your husband was a bit thoughtless there :( Hopefully he'll be more of a help tomorrow.

@mummatara omg 😆 why do men not get it?? You are doing so well but bloody take it easy 'faffing about'😂 yep just about sums up my DH too

Sorry ladies absolute effing rant alert coming your way

So we get home about 5 and mil has already gone to pick DS up from childminder and she's going to feed him 👍🏼 awesome we go home I have my hot choc and we leave to get DS about 6 in that time DH has prepped dinner so all he has to do is cook it later.

We get home just before 7 and I'm attempting to wrestle screaming toddler into pjs I give up and leave him naked and say daddy can get you dressed can't remember what faffing about he was doing at that point. I make milk we go upstairs and it's a group effort to get pjs on but we manage it. I put DS to bed which tbf just involves telling him to lay on his pillow and hold mummy's hand or go night nights on the odd occasion whilst I sit in the rocker next to his cot. DH cooks dinner. I come down about an hour later dinner is sorted so stuff it down my face and proceed to lay on the sofa feeling totally whacked out.

DH tootles off to do some more work, he's been working all day pretty much which I don't mind he's running a business and is the main earner you can't just drop it all. At 10 he says do I want tea so I say yes to a chamomile he brings it in to the front room and says he's off to bed. I'd been contemplating bed for the best part of 45 mins but couldn't be arsed to move I say I'm coming to bed now too to which he says can I do the dishwasher 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ now I'm no invalid but I'm actually not running on 200% like usual and seriously I had surgery today. I think he could tell I had the huff when I said yes because he then offered to do it 🙄 it did only take me 5 mins then wipe the sides another few mins so not the end of the world but it irritated me so badly. I then go to see if he brought my massive washing basket down from the bedroom like I asked I'll give you one guess NOPE. As I'm loading the smaller basket in our room where he's in bed reading a magazine he says oh sorry I forget I'll take it down in the morning to which I'm like I want to put washing on now so off I trot basket in hand stick the wash on, Chuck the dog in the garden for a night wee and I'm now super super grumpy but I have no one to moan to 🙈

I know he's had a long day too and he is very supportive normally but I actually would love to have just not had to do anything tonight

So so so sorry if you actually got to the end of that shit show of a message ❤️

@theblueflowers awesome news lovely 💪🏼💕

@theblueflowers amazing news. So pleased there was a heartbeat. And 1 day is nothing to worry about at all. Totally normal. Take each win as it comes 💕

@MrsCristianoX Woo for being back on the bandwagon 🥳🥳

sending positive fertile vibes everyone’s way x

@FfayeN don't scare me! I imagine I'll pull out my cervix with this boy 😅

@theblueflowers that's amazing news!! I'm so so happy for you! 💕

@theblueflowers fab news!! ❤️ Xx

Also, 1 day behind is nothing, honestly!

@theblueflowers I swear I had such a positive feeling about your scan!!!! THAT IS AMAZING ❤

Thank you all for your reassuring words, it has been the longest day waiting for this appointment and not having anyone to talk to about it is so difficult!

Can't quite believe I'm writing this but the scan showed a heartbeat 🥹. Me and DH were just in shock as we've never seen anything like it. I'm measuring 1 day behind, but trying not to look into that.

I think I'm a bit dazed to be honest, I actually have a draft message to my GP about a referral to Tommys that I was going to send after this appointment. What a day.

@theblueflowers I absolutely could not read and run. It is totally normal to feel anxious given your previous experiences but I really want to hope the best for you. So many people spot when pregnant, in fact, there was a thread couple weeks ago where someone was bleeding and wanted to cancel her early scan as she did not expect a good outcome based on the bleeding but the scan showed a good heartbeat. As people above said, symptoms sometimes come and go. Really hoping you will come back with here with good news after the scan ❤❤x Fingers crossed for you!

@theblueflowers big hugs lovely I hope the scan goes ok and it's just nothing to worry about ❤️

@bunnykins123 yes for Decembers fertile period xx

@theblueflowers I'm so sorry I don't even know what to say. Hopefully all is ok 🙏 but I totally understand your heartache today ❤️

@MrsCristianoX welcome back on the bandwagon! It does make sense for DH to do work if he's getting lots of £££ for it. Will he be away during your fertile period?

@theblueflowers honestly hun, don't panic yet. I know it's scary but so many mums spot (my friend did a few weeks ago - all good with bubba and happy heartbeat!). There could be so many reasons at this stage. Keep us updated how the scan goes but deep breaths 💕 also symptoms massively come and go too!

@theblueflowers So sorry to hear that, Blue :( I'm glad your scan is today at least so you won't be waiting for too long without answers. xx

Hey all,
Not good news from me. I've started spotting today, and my symptoms have disappeared. Fearing the worst as this is how it started with the other two. Supposed to be 6w2d today. The good news is that I've got a scan booked in this afternoon so I will hopefully get a definitive answer. Feeling pretty broken by it all.

@FfayeN yep I'm all good. DH said no to the work thing but they are offering him a massive bonus now so he'd be mad not to accept. I thought the hardest part would be talking him round to ttc early but no he seems on board 🤞haven't produced the fertile cup yet can't wait to see him run a mile😂

I'm starting to ttc this month. Last month nearly broke me and DH is possibly away in December..so I'll be giving that thing a go this month too. I have to stop the meds anyway because they are making my body hurt 🤷‍♀️

@FfayeN haha I did take mine out whilst on the toilet. That was interesting 😶 But it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Maybe with practice, it'll get a bit easier! Flashing smiley today so the fun commences....
