What have you picked, Miley?

Sounds like a horrible dream, LittleBelle. Are you feeling anxious about TTC?

Indi - you're right, there are so many nice names to choose from! I also really like Felicity, Eleanor, Matilda, Alice, Helena, Polly, Mary, Annie, Annabel, Josephine... I could just go on and on! My taste in boys' names doesn't change as much but I also like Alistair, Alexander, Benjamin, Rupert, Nathan, Timothy, Peter... I don't know how you choose in the end!

I like Thomas and Darcy, by the way!

Chocaholic88 · 02/01/2016 19:05

Just a heads up ladies... changed my name from HandbagsnHorses to this!... long story haha

LittleBelle90 · 02/01/2016 19:48

leonie yes I think I am anxious. I was hospitalised last year with pelvic inflammatory disease and I know there is a risk that it can leave you infertile so it's probably that playing on my mind. Also got married last June so I really a bit of pressure from people asking when I'm going to have a baby 😔
I think most people have an idea of baby names but it's hard to say until you actually have the baby in your arms. My parents had a name picked out for me but then changed it once I was born

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 19:56

LittleBelle fwiw, during my fw I had a few weird dreams too, one consisting of me getting a BFP and the Dr telling me a positive means I'm not pregnant Blush

Turnertime14 · 02/01/2016 20:07

Those are some really nice names guys! I bring it the name debate up but I think oh only wants to seruously think about it once it becomes real!
Sorry about AF Harriet - enjoy the wine!!

LittleBelle90 · 02/01/2016 20:10

Thanks miley glad I'm not the only one. I'm due AF next Sunday so my mind is just full of symptom spotting and pre-occupied.

IndiX · 02/01/2016 20:16

Girl I'm due to test tomorrow excited, nervous, scared but I've just had a wee and wiped and there was a small amount of EWCM like wtf is that about?! Thinking about it there was a little bit the other day too but I didn't take any notice.
My belly is bloated beyond belief, I'm used to bloating due to my IBS but usually bloat at the top of my belly but this bloat is all down the bottom below my belly button.
Am I reading too much in to this?!

Chocaholic88 · 02/01/2016 20:22

indi I had that sort of stuff when I was in the very early stages of pregnancy... just saying! 😁😁

IndiX · 02/01/2016 20:25

Really choc? I've just read something on Google saying EWCM before period could mean pregnancy, don't want to get my hopes up. I'm extremely emotional right now..I didn't realise how much I wanted it until I just read that and thought there could really be a possibility. Please keep your fx for me tomorrow, I'm so nervous but I have a good feelingSmile

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 20:27

Indi you have more willpower than me. I'd be pissing right now

IndiX · 02/01/2016 20:31

I'm so tempted but I've been weeing all night so think it will be too weak. I really hope this is a good sign! I'm so emotional right now, I need to man up haha!

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 20:41

I'm soooo nervousexcited for you. Everything crossed it's your bfp GrinGrin keep us updated, I have a really good feeling

StarkyTheDirewolf · 02/01/2016 20:41

I had one more glass of champagne tonight and that's me done with alcohol for a while now! I'm usually a tee-totaler so it shouldn't be too much of a hardship!

Oh mikey he never stops going on about it! He's hurt his rotator cuff at boxing training a few weeks ago and then further damaged it weight training, so that's the latest whinge! He does a lot off "well that's not extending properly!" "That's a shit lift" etc when watching YouTube training videos. I just go ""mmm" and pretend I'm paying attention!

Loving everybody's names! Roth is a brilliant name leonie all the best people are called Ruth it's my middle name but I have a VERY biblical name!

harriet I love a good clean up too, the furious "Must. Clean. Everything." When hormonal!

We've got an interesting list of names, girls: Arianna, Honor, Danica, Seren, Athena, Robyn, Ceridwen, Accalia, Persephone, Delilah Dh says no to that one, Welsh bastard Eira, Clover, Ariadne, Minerva...

Boys : Fáelan, Stanley, Lloyd, Louis, Osian, Roman, Asriel,

StarkyTheDirewolf · 02/01/2016 20:43

indi all sounding very positive! Fx for you!

Who else is due to test this week?

OP posts:
Chocaholic88 · 02/01/2016 20:43

Yep honestly indi... hence I'm still confused had one lot a day Tues and weds last week an also today... only time I've ever had it like that before is when I've been pregnant. Plus with my random mix of positives and negatives... OH reckons we should try the brand (superdrug and tesco) and see if the line has got darker on those? Not sure!

I will be keeping everything Xd for you tomorrow... sending hugs and baby dust and make sure you let us all know!! 😨😨☺☺

Chocaholic88 · 02/01/2016 20:45

Loving the names starky

Wondering when/if I should bother testing again?? Midwife told me to test weds/Thurs next week and if it's not positive and I'm not bleeding, to go back to Dr for a blood test sooner!

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 20:48

I'm due to test in 3 days according to Ovia but I've had af symptoms today so fuck knows.

Wow starky what a list of names. They're fab, so unusual.

leoniethelioness · 02/01/2016 20:50

Good luck, indi!

Pinklily1 · 02/01/2016 20:51

Starky, I love love love Delilah but OH says no as it reminds him of the bloody Tom Jones song!

We are sorted with girls names but screwed if we have a boy as we can't agree! I love Milo but according to OH it's a dogs name Hmm

Fingers crossed for you testing tomorrow Indi. Do it first thing so you can use fmu and then it's done so regardless of the outcome you can then try and get on with your day. I would t have the patience to wait!

leoniethelioness · 02/01/2016 20:52

Starky - I love Honor and Athena. Perhaps you'd like Alethea as well? A friend has a nephew called Osian - I really like it!

Pinklily1 · 02/01/2016 20:52

Also, how do you pronounce Ceridwen?

LittleBelle90 · 02/01/2016 20:52

Fx for you indi Ovia says I can test in 2 days but I'm worried it will be a bfn. I had quite a bit of creamy cm for last few days but hardly anything today so maybe think I've not caught the egg this month 😕

IndiX · 02/01/2016 20:53

Starky those names are gorgeous! Especially love Arianna and Seren!

So now I feel like I've got a cramp near my right hip just been for a number 2 though so maybe trapped wind sorry tmi!! I'm hoping this isn't my AF being a little bastard and tricking me in to thinking I'm preggo.
God I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight, I'm now self doubting myself. Maybe I just need some bloody sleep Confused

leoniethelioness · 02/01/2016 20:54

Pink - maybe Miles on the birth certificate? I think Miles is really handsome.

Mileymoocow · 02/01/2016 20:54

BUT so is my baby cousin Wink
