I was due on the 3rd but AF showed this afternoon. I woke up this morning with the worse headache and it didn't ease for hours. I'm really sad and trying to stay optimistic. Hoping this month is the one xx

@GeoSmed I'm Aquarius! 9th feb.

Hahaha 5 nights a week is a VERY rare occurrence in this house and if it ever happens you can absolutely bet there's either been positive opks or alcohol involved 🤣 and probably not much energy! 😴

How are you feeling about tomos? Xx

Haha I feel ya! Maybe we should aspire to that as a challenge for June! Give us something else to focus on other than the TWFW (dropped an F in there, just to match my anger).
When in Feb are you? And not great for tomorrow. I've made a conclusion in my head that we're going to have to abandon this cycle and start again next month. I feel like that's what they're going to say. I just don't know how my body is going to have changed drastically in the past 2 days for it to be a positive appointment, so I'm not expecting a positive outcome!

@chlx3 bless him that's so sweet! My oh was the same when I first started doing opks, it would put him right out of the mood hahaha. But he's got used to it now I think, most of the time 😅

Omg 5 nights a week!! I used to work nights and I loved it at the time but thinking about doing it again now, I think I'd struggle!!
What is your new job? You're both gonna have to find the energy for morning sex now and again lol xx

@dabs9 I'm a February bubba too! Are you an aquarius or you back end of Feb? Knew you were very similar to me 😉@LeopardLover you have to be around Feb time too as you defo have the same mentality as me!

@chlx3 I'm so sorry AF showed up 😢It's so hard to switch your mindset from 'I'm pregnant' to the next day being like oh i'm not crack on with life. it's hard and you're allowed to be upset / pissed off! But as the girls have said, I admire your ability to look ahead at the positives - you will have a spring chicken if you conceive this month, you can have some (lots) of wine for the next 2 weeks, you can focus your energy on something different for the next 2 week that isn't about peeing on a stick, having sex at the right time, and living in anxious limbo for the TWW! We're all here together and we'll be part of the June club together, along with a few others too 👭

I also TOTALLY read what you and @dabs9 were saying about 5 nights a week as having sex 5 nights a week, I was like f'king hell that is pure commitment and also a LOT of time and energy. Then clicked you meant work. Which, I guess the time and energy comment still applies too haha.

Anyway June is defo the best month to get pregnant anyway! And I also plan how I'm going to reveal it too. I think that's normal. Either that or we're all fucking mental and we probably should be single. x

@Amy95 I'm jealous of the curls! My hair won't hold a curl for more than 5 minutes! If there's any spare can you send some my way too please?! Xx

@Bubblesandtroubles Nah sorry I've got it all already x

@chlx3 I feel like it'd be so difficult keeping it quiet from partner for even just a few hours! I'd probably send a pic too but would really try to control myself hahah.

Ah I ran out of opks too and promised myself and my husband I wouldn't buy more but of course I've just ordered some. I really can't help myself!! Wish I could send you some but maybe the not testing will be a good thing for you this month.
You defos shouldn't feel bad your bf buying them tho.. it's not his pee but it is his baby lol. I bet he wouldn't mind. xx

He's just sent me £50 so I can get some bits but didn't mention the opks as it makes him feel pressured when I mention we need to Bd because I'm about to ovulate🤣 so i don't mention it often and we just BD whenever but we managed to time it perfectly last month, literally the day before so thought it had worked! My new job is working over night 5 nights a week tho so im worried we won't have sex as much as im only home 2 nights a week😩x

@chlx3 hahaha aw you're a Christmas baby!
yea that would be so sweet if your baby was due around your partner's bday. Here's hoping for this month! Keep tracking and throw everything at it again this month 💕

I keep planning out in my mind how I'm going to announce my pregnancy to people when it finally happens lol. So daft but it's giving me a bit of a smile xx

I have a twin brother too so Christmas is a busy time of year 🤣
I keep thinking about how I'd announce it but I'm more thinking how I'd tell my boyfriend when I find out as I know I'd get excited and send a pic to him when he's at work but I feel like that's not the best way to do it lol. I've ran out of opks and I have £20 to last me until I get paid end of June🤣 I could ask my boyfriend to borrow some money but then I feel bad! Just struggling this month as I've just changed jobs x

@chlx3 I'm so sorry 😔 you're amazing keeping upbeat and focused on the end result!
I have a Feb birthday and I defos think March would be better anyway... further away from Christmas! 🤣 (that's what I'm telling myself anyway hahah) xx

There's not a lot I can do about it so I try not to beat myself up too much. My birthday is December 20th so glad that we've gotten past that due date!🤣 I feel like march and onwards is a good time to have a birthday but would be so good if it was march as my partner is march 4th! My app says if I conceive this month, baby would be born around 7th march! x

Annapolis35 · 01/06/2023 14:25

Sorry to hear that @chlx3 but your positivity is amazing! It’s worth getting tested as either way you know what’s going on. We got some tests privately and some through nhs.

Got my period this morning :( onto month 11🤞🏼 if I get pregnant this month, baby would be born around my boyfriends birthday in march!🥰 it's just so annoying because I really thought this was the month after tracking and bbt and BD the day before and after Ovu. Off to doctors next months for tests if this month doesn't work🥺🤞🏼x

Oh I'm sorry 🥺 being positive is the best way to be Hun ❤️ don't give up , you will get your bfp one day 🤞xx

Im sorry @chlx3 but at least you're not left in limbo and you seem to have a very good attitude and approach! 💕 Xx

I feel a little let down as I was convinced this was the cycle but next month will be a year Ttc so I'm just kind of used to it! My partner is convinced it's just never going to happen and sometimes I think the same and I worry that I'm the problem but he's agreed to get tested too. I just hate how it's so difficult but I try to think of the good things like Atleast I have a period and that always gives me another chance to try again! x

Noooooooooooo!!! you're meant to be waiting until Saturday missy!! Sorry you got BFN though. Maybe we need to rename this post to 'who wants to be pregnant anyway'.

Thanks @GeoSmed 😊 I am all good now! Took a while to heal mentally from it all last year, but we got back into the swing of it last autumn and had a couple of months on and off. Raring to go and get back on that proverbial horse each month.

OMG what type of fertility treatment? What a total pain that your body hasn’t responded. But yes, bodies are total arseholes 😂

That's good that you're back and strong to hit it again! That takes a lot. One of my best friends isn't ready to return to the TTC world yet after hers, so well done for coming back, no doubt stronger too! Your Rainbow baby will be here soon 🌷

Ah yeah it's just being a dick. IT was responding fine the past 3 months, and even on this months cycle up until yesterday where it was like nahhh i'm done for a bit. Stupid thing. FSH ovulation injections which is a hormonal rollercoaster!

Annapolis35 · 01/06/2023 12:07

Aw sorry to hear of bfn @Amy95 it really sucks!! I find it way easier to just getting AF than getting blank lines so I now never test early (unbelievably!) and I’d rather not know about any chemicals either x

Amy95 · 01/06/2023 11:47

Annapolis35 · 01/06/2023 10:28

Hey ladies, can I join your lovely crew? I’m in month what feels like a million after a mmc last spring, and just got AF so into a new cycle (June crew). It’s nice to have company in this! X
