I would love a graduation thread. I find the antenatal club totally overwhelming I can't keep up! I do feel bad though for clogging up your TTC stuff with my PG / HG stuff but I'm not ready to move along lol!

Jod, it's great to hear about the pregnancy stuff, feels like we will get there eventually.

Busta I'm ovulating early this month, just had a positive opk so likely will be tomorrow or Friday.

When I was temping I used fertility friend app so it worked out my ovulation date for me, I just plugged in the temperatures.

Hopefully this is the month Tee, when will you test?

congrats Becky.

Hopefully Jem your symptoms are off a very strong ovulation, lots of progesterone so good chance of a BFP.

Hi everyone else, I'm exhausted and got to dtd so I'm ahem off to bed

Jod I agree I feel bad talking about pregnancy stuff on here but I've been onto the antenatal thread and I find it quite stressful and daunting. And people ignore you and there's too many on it.
We've got such a nice thread going on I don't want to leave it.

I do find I read so Much from people throughout the day and when I come to reply I forget a lot of what people have said so sorry if I miss anything

Congrats Becky!

I had awful cramps and spotting when AF was due. The cramping was just like AF. Was convinced it was coming even though I had a BFP.

Feeling so positive for everyone!

Busta I used to take my temp as soon as I woke up in morning before getting up properly and that could be different times. It still was accurate enough. I would say there's no need to set an alarm for that early!

Reached square 100 of Ttc snakes and ladders?! 😂 when none of the other graduates were chatting I'd always hoped it would eventually lead to a grad chat when there were enough! Super idea!

Just to clarify I don't want anyone to leave! We've got a lovely supportive little community here, and I'd be really sad if all the pregnants did leave xx

Nooo, nobody leave!! I like hearing about everyones stories, they are all brilliant (& also add positives to my otherwise dull & unpositive cycles)

I just also think it'll be lovely to have a thread we can all go to after we become pregnant it'll be like we all reached a massive mile stone from trying to actually being pregnant!

Thanks radders, I just thought it had to be after 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep - so 4.30am seems to be best as I don't seem to need the night time loo before then

& congratulations becky!

Busta they do say that but to be honest I did it even if I had got up for a wee in the night so may have only been another 2 hours sleep.

The main thing is you can see the shift in temperatures and I still saw the shift.
Up to you as you have to do what feels right for you but waking up at 4.30 can't be pleasant!

Can finally say tomorrow is my scan day, yay! Wishing today away big time

Ps did you tell your parents?

Radders think we are doing it tomorrow!

Congratulations Beckylou!!
Had some more spotting today so think she is on her way! will be getting myself some chocolate if she by lunch! X

Congrats on scan tomorrow, radders.

CD 22 3dpo confirmed by ff and temp shift (I caved). Off on hols tomorrow night so no temping, no opking, won't be around to catch up on the goss here either! Testing on 19th. I should be in Carmel CA to test! Feeling positive. Dtd Cd 17 and 20. Ov on cd 19... so in with a chance!

Good morning everyone,

Just checking in, I read everything but haven't been close to my computer to answer properly to each of you.

I love reading news from the graduates, please don't leave!

Today is weigh-in day, and I have officially lost 6kg since mid-May. Running 5k 3 or 4 times a week, learning to run faster to complete it in 30 minutes (currently 37-39). Have gone into a bit of a fitness wave, bought a fitbit, enrolled on a Pretty Muddy 5k next week, and have been doing the Zombies, run! app on my phone, which is awesome.

AF due 15th, but already started poas. Dtd few times this month, hope it's enough.

A very good day to all of you!

Wow purple that's great going! I weighed myself today and I would like to lose 1 stone (14lbs) before my first midwife appointment on 29th August. I am thinking of giving slimming world a go

Hey everybody
Nimi think I will test early next week, AF due Thursday... Hope egg and swimmer bump into each other today!!
Graduates yes we want you to stay, time to create a new thread soon! Really want to stay with all you girls for our TTC & PG journey!
Footprints what's happening today?? How's the temp??
Busta I generally temp around 6.30am when DH gets up, if I know I got up within the 4 hours, I'd take that reading with a pinch of salt, but generally the pattern is there, as Radders said.
Wahoo for the scan tomorrow Radders, can't wait to see a pic. That's reminded me to check where I can get an early scan in my area, I can't wait until 12 weeks when it finally happens. Any suggestions on what week would be best to book one for??
Sorry to hear that Pepper, but you never know! Does AF usually start that light/gradually for you? Anything out of the norm is a good thing in my book.
And relax Kate! You've done what you can, and dates look good. Welcome to the 2ww, hol will be a great distraction, we'll miss you on the thread!
Purple that's amazing, you must be so proud of yourself!
Does any of the weight watchers follow the 'lean in 15' dude, Joe Wicks?? Think I'd be following his plan of I wanted to lose a few pound!
Jem how you feeling today??
Hello everybody else!

No promising symptoms here sadly. Bit crampy which is typical a week before AF, I think!

Cd2111dpo

Hi all! temp was high at 36.83 this morning, but got a bfn on a FRER so I really don't think I am now. Had day 21 blood test done today which measures progesterone levels and can tell if I ovulated. Results I'll get on Monday. Although I think progesterone is fine as temp would be much lower.
It would also show if I was pregnant so I'm not going to test anymore. Had few cramps but they don't feel like AF cramps.
Disappointed, but at least I can go on holiday next week knowing I can drink and won't be feeling sick.

Congrats beckylou.
Graduates,yes please stay! Feel like I know you all so well and that you are my friends. Would love to go through your pregnancy with u all. Hoping this thread will all turn into a grads thread soon.

Sorry pepper if it's AF
Jem- hoping you feel much better X

Cd 22, 6 DPO

Getting my hopes up proper this cycle, which is worrying me I've had all this weird dizziness and tummy pains, I've had constipation, lower back ache, intense dreams and generally feeling really off. When can I start testing!!

Good luck with your scan tomorrow radders looking forward to hearing how you get on and seeing a healthy bean. Enjoy telling your folks PS.

Pepper hope it's not AF
Physics have a wonderful holiday!

Well done on your weight loss purple!

Fingers crossed tee for bfps all round next week! Xx

Don't give up hope just yet footprints, you're not out until you're out. I'm feeling a lot better thanks but still not 100% xx

There still time footprints! Nice that you can totally relax on holiday if it's not meant to be this time tho. Try and do a Jodders and forget all about it if you can.
Jem, this is mad! Don't blame you for feeling excited! What tests do you have in? Try at the weekend for the hell of it! I might x

I've got frers and ics tee - maybe will try and cheapie at the weekend..

Tee I love it "do a jodders and forget about it"

Jem In first few weeks of early pregnancy and even before bfp I had such a dodgy tummy. Mix between weird AF pains and trapped wind stomach pain! Was so painful! I really hope you're lucky on cycle 7!!!!!
Footprints! You're still very early! I had a bfn at 11 dpo! Fingers crossed!
Congrats becky!!!!!! ❤️
Excited for you telling the parents PS let us know how all goes..
Purple that is so impressive, I've gained almost half a stone! I'd been carrying some extra before as well 😖
Radders wishing you all the best for tomorrow! Can't wait until you fill us in. I've caved and have booked a 'just a look' reassurance type scan. Will be 15 weeks for it this weekend. I'll let you know how my experience with this place goes Jod as it's in Dublin and 100 euro. Hopefully I'll be recommending.
Waiting for lots of good news tee, nim, physics, pepper busta and anyone else!

Telling parents tomorrow night. I am nervous!!

Last night I had horrendous trapped wind tummy pain parney gah this is feeding my mental brain!

Enjoy your scan this weekend hope you get a little wave from your little one

Jem I had trapped wind tummy pain today along with the light cramping! Sounds positive!!
