tigger have the best time!!
parsnips great idea, I think I should definitely get on board with that!
My last week of work before I'm jetting off! Hopefully it will fly by! FW begins tomorrow apparently!

Have fun Tigger!
I'm all for a babymakation, it worked on my honeymoon! For our anniversary this year we're taking the day off work and going for lunch at our wedding venue while DD is at nursery. Maybe we should rush back to DTD before we pick her up too. It's not quite Barbados but we'll make do.

Awhhh Buzz and Grumpy my DH is exactly the same! I feel so sorry for him but there is nothing we can do to help (DH doesnt always help himself either though!) but thats what made us decide on SPL

Jupiter you know its not over until AF comes!.... im trying to hold off testing tomorrow... i know it will be negative anyways!... also my boobs hurt more at night... the just feel a bit more there although i'm still goong to say i dont think im upduffed this month

There was one other person cycle buddying with us... was it buzz?

Tigger I hope you have a lovely holiday!

Morning ladies! Lots to catch up on!

Hope you are feeling better MrsC and great news on starting to TTC

Grumpy have you had a positive OPK yet? Congrats on payrise!

Wiggly have you been making the most of you positive OPK?

Really sorry to hear about your doggy confused, i hope it isn't bad news. That cake looks amazing!! Talented sis!

I am CD5 now, AF was done & dusted by last night! - short one i think, 4 days? Wasn't as heavy as i recall but who knows, it's been sooooo long!

I am slightly struggling with running at the moment (& you lot know i run ALOT!) as my breathing is being a bit strange. I've found running a little harder since coming off the pill, so wondering if all the hormone changes are making my body a little lethargic?

Red no my OPK last night was still negative and I didn't get a chance to do one before work this morning but will do one this eve.
My first post pill AF was similar, very short with only spotting on day 4/5, but the first two days were hellishly painful! Hope the running / breathing improves for you.

I'm tired and emotional this morning as DD is going to her dad for half term week and I always feel a bit lost when she's away!

Me too red mine was pretty much done yesterday morning (thank god!) and only sore on day 1!

This t shirt just arrived with the post. Bought it for when the day comes and I can have DS wear it for when OH comes home from work 😀 probably massively jinxed myself how 🙄

confused not me! I'm CD4 so twinned with red and parsnips and I want to say wiggly?
AF nearly over, very pleased that my body seems to have sorted itself out only 1 month off the pill. Don't really know how to take a picture of that for my happy post though!

mummy that is amazing!!' I love it!!

Oh my bad!!... Wiggley puts on ab fab voice waves Darling Darling!! You can't leave me and Jupiter in the TWW!!

Mummy that top is just the cutest!!

Is ridiculous middle right back pain a symptom?... it even hurts when sitting still! Lol

mummy that is fab!!!

I am so excited to have a proper cycle, it feels strange being happy about it!!

TWW is too long!!!!! Only 3dpo and want it over with 😖 9 days until BFP due!!!! Is implantation always 6-13 days regardless how long your luteal phase is?

How about this one buzz then you can be cryptic but no what it means. Now af has been and gone we are all one step closer ❤️

*know

MrsC hope the week goes quickly!! Bet you're excited :)

Confused I thought Tigger was our cycle buddy but doubting myself now.. oh god I'm so tempted to test tomorrow too but it's such a bad idea right?!

Red I think progesterone can cause breathlessness so maybe that's effecting your running?

Mummy such a cute top! I think implantation takes same time regardless of luteal length which is why a short luteal phase can be a problem as egg doesn't have time to implant..

I answered my own question with a quick google.. implantation time frame is always the same 😊

Where are you going again Mrs?

Hmmm i can't believe we lost our cycle Triplet! ... on a different note Jupiter do you have any IC's? I think I am going to have to feedmy POAS addiction just to show myself symptom spotting is nonscence! Lol

Sorry Mummy yeah its the same but its between 4-12 days but i also read an egg that implants early is less likely to stick...

I'm 9dpo too but my cycles are a bit longer so af due on23rd and I'm going to try and hold out I think

Tigger I don't blame you.. any symptoms yet? :)

confused going to order some ICs, think I need to POAS to calm me down a bit. I think all my symptoms are progesterone related and occur every month!

Just had a quote for hallway and landing decoration... £1300 including materials 😖 This decorating malarkey is expensive

Ouch Mummy could you not do it yourself?... i love decorating!

Ooo Tigger do you have a 19 day LP?

Jupiter i am going to test tomorrow... i know its really unlikely to be BFP but i just need to bring myself back down to earth loool... although i am not sure if to use FRER or IC (I got a load of FRER from boots cheap a few weeks ago)

How many dpo are you confused

I think I'll test tomorrow too confused and use one of my FRERs. Lets give it a go shall we..FX my lovely. I found an interesting website that shows how quickly HCG doubles etc depending on day of implantation - then you can work out what sensitivity of test would even work each day. For example if we implanted on 6/7DPO then a FRER would only just pick up if we tested tomorrow..any later in the month and we'd get a negative regardless.

(if the egg implanted any later in the month I mean)

confused we decorated DS's room and it was a nightmare. I don't have a good hand for edging, there's a lot of woodwork and it would be pretty hardwork to the stair well (Victorian house so high ceilings). Plus we don't have the time and a toddler in the mix wouldn't work. We have had two quotes and both the same
