@LuckyMoonstone all other measures have failed so I'm trying to kill this virus with wine 🍷 will defo regret this tomorrow 🙈 everything else tastes weird so I'm going with it

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 18:37

@LuckyMoonstone it's def the weather for it ☀️ not coke though that bit sucks 😂

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 18:31

@LuckyMoonstone 😂😂

LuckyMoonstone · 08/04/2023 17:52

I am in a pub garden in the sun drinking…. a coke 😂 it’s gonna be a looooong summer

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 17:45

@MrsJGrealish ooh I never thought to look online I'll go order some even if it's gone by then at least I'll have some for next time. Omg I couldn't think of anything worse to take either 🤢 bloody nutters though I have to say one time I took it for a particularly bad headache and I was high as a kite for the afternoon 😳 so I'm not surprised

calimc83 · 08/04/2023 17:07

@Indianna2006 omg less than a week to go! How exciting xx ☺️
Hope everyone is having a lovely Easter. The sun is actually out here for once! xx

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 15:38

We've run out of soluble cocodamol. The people aren't happy. I couldn't imagine anything worse to take but something tells they make a cocktail from it 😂😂 I kid you not

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 15:30

@bringmearainbow fmu never has been great with me. Even the 6 week loss there was a good difference with morning and evening and we were talking about levels in the 100s (544 to be exact) I'm v v tired but I know that's this virus.

These eye drops are available online. I had a quick google there. Chemist direct I know this is no help since it's a bank holiday. It's the chloramphenicol ones which ironically I'm allergic to and can't use. Swear to goodness next time I'm at work I'll send you all an ointment over. Just pm me a list of addresses 😊

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 13:59

@FfoxRedN lol four working days I like your way of thinking 🙊

@MrsJGrealish 😂 I've seen that quite a lot on threads that FMU hadn't been the best for people wonder if it's because it has a big concentration of other things in it 🤔 yep still a shortage 🙄 lol the amlihnt of time and money I've spent driving round to pharmacies I should have hopped on a plane to your gaff 😂 wish I could of said I have some good symptoms but all I have is sore boobs which is totally normal. I do have a bit of a backache the last couple of days and I'm quite tired but tbh it's been so full on at home I'm putting it down to that more than anything exciting

I'm having such a wobbly day today I was feeling so optimistic pre ovulation but I now don't think it's going to happen this cycle 😫 I'm trying not to be a Debbie downer because it's still early but there's just zero of any signs or anything really 🤷🏼‍♀️🙄 I keep trying to remember what I had with my son but all I noted on my app were sore boobs. 2nd one I had no clue as wasn't tracking and third all I had was the weird heartburn so I suppose having nothing isn't totally off but just eurgh

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 12:49

@FfoxRedN haven't really been thinking about it too much. That is until I got a cramp in my side last night (way too high for implantation I might add) and woke up today a bit sickly. I think AF will come though..I cried over nothing last night so the pmt rage is there...not helped by bingate 😂

FfoxRedN · 08/04/2023 12:41

@MrsJGrealish how's the TWW feeling lovely? Hopefully bin-gate is passing the time 😆 xx

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 12:28

@bringmearainbow is there still a shortage of those drops? Probably because I've them all hid in my fridge at work 🙈

MrsJGrealish · 08/04/2023 12:25

@FfoxRedN maybe I did, maybe I didn't 😂 weirdly fmu doesn't give me the best results early on..

I've been symptom spotting too. Not be doing any tests till I'm due on though. I can't figure out whether this cold is making tea taste weird or something better. I ovulated early so should expect AF in 5 days x

@Alexis7890 congratulations lovely on the positive digital ❤️

FfoxRedN · 08/04/2023 12:12

@bringmearainbow I'm sure that's what she said 🤣. Maybe I've got it wrong though 🫣.
Monday 17th. Four working days lol xx

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 12:07

@FfoxRedN I was thinking I might go hide one in the downstairs bathroom and I can go "make a tea" in the morning 😂 haha a wardrobe I don't remember that!

Oooh the bloating is not fun is it 🙈 when is your next scan?

FfoxRedN · 08/04/2023 11:50

@Alexis7890 oh I really hope this is it for you!!

@bringmearainbow I am sure you will find a way 🤣. I think it was @MrsJGrealish who hid her FMU in the wardrobe?! 😂😂😂

I'm feeling ok. Got quite bad nausea and the pulling/stretching is quite bad. I also feel the size of a house already but think that's largely down to cyclogest bloating and feeling a bit sicky. Other than that...time is just going SLOW xx

bunnykins123 · 08/04/2023 11:35

@Alexis7890 that's awesome! So happy for you, got everything crossed this is a sticky bean 🤞🤞

bunnykins123 · 08/04/2023 11:34

@bringmearainbow bless him. We couldn't get any eye drops either due to the shortage. Hopefully you manage to get yours hands on some. We used warm salt water, not sure it did much tbh but it got rid of the gunk!

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 11:33

@Alexis7890 oh yay that's awesome 😍 I'm so pleased for you and also like @LuckyMoonstone very hopeful 🤞🏼

If I get the chance to I will. I was lucky this morning DH popped into his office to do a bit of work so managed to do a sneaky test but I might not be so lucky tomorrow or Monday

LuckyMoonstone · 08/04/2023 11:28

@Alexis7890 I am still feeling super hopeful for you especially now you’ve done a digital 😁

Alexis7890 · 08/04/2023 11:19

@bringmearainbow today is actual test day and did a clear blue digital which said pregnant 1-2 so I’m hoping it’ll change to 2-3 in the next couple of days. Are you going to test every day now?

the holidays all sound great, I’m hoping we’ll get to go abroad but not sure it’ll happen, will depend if this lasts or if ivf is needed

bringmearainbow · 08/04/2023 10:19

@bunnykins123 it seems to be a reoccurring thing for him which is just irritating. He seems to get a snotty nose when he's teething then he must wipe some snot in that general direction and boom conjunctivitis 🙄

@Alexis7890 thanks lovely. How are your tests looking? I did one this morning but BFN which at 8dpo is not wholly unsurprising 😂 I think if it's still bfn at 10dpo I'll start to feel disappointed but for now it's ok

@Indianna2006 I went to the two I could find open yesterday and both had none apparently there's a shortage 🙄 one is hopefully getting some today 🤞🏼 so atm all I can do is bathe it in water. We need to book our summer holiday I can't wait to get away

Indianna2006 · 08/04/2023 10:07

@bringmearainbow oh bless him try get him some drops from a pharmacist maybe. It’s not fun!

Jealous of all these summer getaways. I can’t wait for summer and se hot weather! We won’t go abroad this year. Just probably local U.K. place for DD to “think” she’s on holiday.

@TheBirdintheCave Sounds like he’s doing so well with potty training. It’s soo much nicer when they just use the toilet. 😊

Have a lovely Easter everyone! 🐣🐥

Alexis7890 · 08/04/2023 09:45

@bringmearainbow aww I hope he’s better soon! are you doing more tests over the weekend?

@FfoxRedN how are you getting on? Hope everything is going well!!

@LuckyMoonstone thank you, please get excited for me, I wish I could feel excited but currently just almost waiting for something to go wrong

cyclogest stops today according to my consultant 2 weeks would be plenty and stopping it now wont cause any problems if everything is healthy and progressing properly

hope everyone is enjoying Easter weekend and the sunshine that’s come with it

bunnykins123 · 08/04/2023 09:35

@bringmearainbow we had that a few weeks ago, seems to be massively doing the rounds (along with everything else!) You have my sympathy, I hope it clears up soon 💕
