Okay ladies so we're getting pretty close to maxing out thread #2.... so here it is lucky thread #3

Big congrats to our double whammy bfp today ... dolly & moo ....

Now we bring on the Spring BFP's

Xxx

Wow Dolly amazing! Congrats! Yay! Over the moon for you!! moo did you get your BFP too?! Eeeek! 🎉🎉🎉

Hippie your thread and you guys were keeping me going even though I hadn't commented for weeks. So I must say thanks! 😘

My GP best friend was saying zinc is a key nutrient I should be including as a supplement.... I'm also currently chomping through the core of a frigging 🍍🍍ha!

On the caffeine front I've majorly reduced mine! I ❤Tea! The decaf Yorkshire is good and so is the twinnings early grey! Sleeping much better as a result.

Is it crazy to be thinking I need to shift some weight before baby?! I'm a 12/14 all my weight around my middle (think apple on a stick) want to be slim 12.... anyone else thinking the same?!

Salem I hope the witch had stayed away today?

Hippy yay for half way through the TWW!

Amanda I'm so sorry to hear about your MC but well done on having such a positive outlook on things! I really hope you get your BFP soon.

Moo don't worry about the tea! I'm sure you'll manage the switch to decafe no problem. I stayed away from the pee sticks today but I've just bought some because I'm an idiot!

Archie and EM welcome back ladies! Glad to see you both! Good luck for this month!

Dolly as everyone else said, twinges are totally normal and nothing to worry about! Hope you're feeling ok.

Magpie sounds like you've been super good! Well done on the amazing will power and good luck with the SMEP.

My PMA is slipping ladies. Think i need a kick up the backside! Not that I'm even upset or down, I think I've just gone in to self preservation mode by telling myself AF will appear soon. In an attempt at PMA though, I have today convinced myself that I can smell everything more, (banana from the kitchen and baby wipes from another separate room too). I also feel quite wet (sorry) and noticed quite a bit of creamy CM but it seems to be yellow! No idea what that's about! My nipples are agony too but that's very normal for my few days before AF!

Hey EMH - it's all of our thread, not mine... you lovely ladies make it as awesome as it is! I take zinc supplements in addition to the pregnancy multivit and i give zinc to my dp too - help his doreen's :)

I've had a pineapple a day for the last two days, and got another lined up for tomorrow... I have to juice mine, munching through the core is too much for me ;)
I love Yorkshire Decaf too - I usually drink Clipper as its organic but they don't sell clipper decaf in my local sainsburys :(

Charley sending you virtual hugs xxx

Charley I've heard that creamy and yellow CM can be a sign of pregnancy!! So FX

Really Archie? Off to google like a maniac haha! Although it seems to be back to white at last inspection....

Thanks hippy 😘

Thanks EMWH
Oh charley don't let that PMA slide! I did EXACTLY the same as you in terms of expecting my AF to arrive so when it didn't, I'd gotten so ready to ease my disappointment and ready myself for the BFN that when I got my BFP, I didn't know what the hell to do! If it helps, I defo had a huge increase in creamy CM before I got my BFP. To the point where I dashed to the loo as I thought AF had started a couple times!

Tea-loving ladies, I wouldn't worry too much. Just don't go overboard with the tea. I changed to decaf when pregnant and couldn't taste the difference. In fact I often still drink decaf, especially in the evenings. And that was after I had to give up tea for a few weeks because I couldn't stand the taste or smell in my first trimester. It was really weird!

I love my coffee and always drank that through pregnancy but limited it to two small ones a day at most. Caffeine can decrease birth weight but I still had a 9lb-er!

yes yes YES @EMHW123 as soon as we decided to TTC i instantly became worried about my weight - i'm following Slimming World and loving all the fresh recipes that i cook from scratch. i'm not a processed food fan (apart from a takeaway) so it encourages all your fresh fruit/veg etc that's good for baby making too xx

Hi charley thanks for the welcome back! Like archies I've also read it's a sign!

Fingers crossed!

magpie so glad you said about the coffee! I can't do without my morning one! I get a headache otherwise!!

bella I'm a massive carb addict!! Love pasta and bread! It doesn't love me so try to have gluten free and do majority scratch cooking.... my problem(s) 1) take away -at least once a week (2) cider/beer well if I'm pregnant I'll obviously drop a stone ( oh no wait I did dry Jan and put on weight! 🙈) (3) portion size..... swapped to smaller plate... now have 2 plates of dinner 😂😂😂 man alive!!

I just want people to see my tummy and think ah she's pregnant not ahh she's had pasta for lunch 😂😂

So we have been to the dr about ttc and they were naff all help 😆 generally told us that they will refer us for tests but can't say when they will come through and to use contraception in the mean time so we aren't having tests like X-rays when in early undetectable pregnancy. I asked how long that would be and he said "only 5-6mths on the list till an appointment. But you might be sooner or might be later. Just use protection till then" errrrrrr no!

we are food twinnies as i'm the exact same @EMHW123 i think you'd like slimming world as it encourages you to eat, and loads of it. just all the right stuff xx

what a fecking day iv had guys... that prosecco last night sure did kick my ass this morn 🙈 BAD. IDEA. BELLA!!!! #neveragain

will catch up on the thread once iv made my SW pea and ham soup - remember the soup i was supposed to make yesterday but got drunk instead #imsuchaloser

love having some comments to catch up on over a cuppa - oh and i haven't had any coffee today. decided i'd go cold turkey as it was getting way out of hand! had my raspberry leaf tea though, it was lovely 😊

@Rainbowsockstoday saayyyyy whaaatttt? your GP told you to use protection when you are clearly TTC - has the world fallen off its axis? did Trump set of a nuclear attack that's affected your GO first? is there a gas leak in your GP surgery? WTF kind of advice is that? #itsamadmadworld

@bella he said that whilst we are waiting for tests and appointments that include bloods, scans, X-rays, smears and cycle diary we need to use protection as a pregnancy will make the tests invalid. My DH said "bugger that! If we get pg then we don't need the tests." So we are keeping going in secret 😂 it's only going to be the dpo that an X-ray wouldn't be advised so if that appt comes through after ov then we will just have to postpone for a week! I know it's cheeky but we can't give up the mission for six months or more!

Hmm why does googling any symptoms just end up in more confusion? There always seems to be the same amount of people who say it's a symptom as say it wasn't!

I'm totally with you girls on the wanting to lose weight! Lost a load for my wedding and have put on 3 bloody stone since then. Really want to lose some weight but I just can't bring myself to get back on the diet. I seem to do ok during the week and then fall dramatically at the weekend! Carbs, takeaways and alcohol are the devil. I did a pretty much dry February and still put on weight haha!

I'm just so fed up paying nearly a hundred quid a month for a gym membership and still being a chub! I mean I've paid out a fortune, what do they want me to do?! Like actually go?! Jeeze!

Maybe morning sickness is our answer?! 😆

On a more serious note rainbow I'd do the same, GP sounds like a chump 😘

I kno it's so hard to fall off the positive wagon I always say ok if I'm not PG at least I can have a drink at this event or blah blah try and find a positive somewhere between a mini meltdown

I was over seeing my work mate today and her new baby he's 3.5months she has had umpteen MC & he was her 2nd round IVF. So very happy for her & she totally gets how I'm feeling too so that is nice.

Currently having a cuppa and some pineapple lol. Noticed some white creamy CM but not sure if this is common for me at this time in cycle. Feel so so bloated though which is prob common for AF 😞😞😞😞

Same with losing weight keep thinking aw I might be preg so won't need to massively bother about weight lol however sitting in my gym gear just going to head up 😞

@Amanda How many cycles have you been trying for since mc? Sucks doesn't it, I had a mc at 13 weeks in October. It was a blighted ovum. We're in cycle 4 since. Didn't try first cycle as they tell you to wait for AF. So unprotected sex for 5 cycles but only TTC for 4. sigh

I had sore boobs last pregnancy at 9DPO I'm sure I did. 8DPO and no sign of any sore boobness. If it don't get sore boobs I instantly will think I'm out. Do you ladies genuinely think another pregnancy can have totally different symptoms. I.e. I could get no sore boobs at all but be pregnant??? Has anyone been pregnant twice and has diff symptoms?

I know people say every pregnancy is diffferent. But I just feel like I'd get sore boobs as they grew huge last time 😞😞

Charley have you caved and tested again?

Salem no update from you? I'm hoping your spotting has stopped and aunt flow has not arrived in town!

Still unsure if it is AF or not, but I presume it is. Time for a plan of action.
I saw some raspberry leaf tablets in Holland and Barrett. Is it worth buying these? If so, what do they do?

Rhetorical question but how is it that someone I know is upduffed despite not trying because it was a bloody one night stand yet my DH and I are not upduffed arghhhh!!!!

Haha I genuinely thought I would fall pregnant straight after the wedding which would give me all the motivation to nourish bump properly and the morning sickness would kick in 😂 dh asked about joining the gym at the weekend but I genuinely don't think I could last 5 mins!!

Just quickly dropping by! I'm trying to lose weight with weightwatchers now. Lost it for my wedding in August but put a stone back on ! Been upping my gym visits this week from zero and just about to head off my horse riding lesson. Better enjoy them whilst I still can!

Oh Salem I do hope it's not AF! How many DPO does that make this month? I'm the same, a friend is pregnant from apparently being sick for two days on the pill and didn't want a baby! So annoying how some take so little effort while we all do so much.

Anna haven't tested yet. I FRERs are staring at me while I lay in the bath but only tested last night so doubt it would be any different! I've heard of loads of people having totally difference symptoms and some with everything in one pregnancy and then nothing in the other so I wouldn't count yourself out hun.

Been trying since basically. Was never really careful. But had Evac at end of October then AF didn't arrive until start December and lasted 14 days so I think my cycles r probably just getting back into the swing of it.

I'm feeling a bit ratty tonight which could be a sign of af 😭😭😭😭

Can't even be bothered with the gym honestly! Feel so lazy eeeek. Dayshift tomorrow so going to do some meal
Prep and I have my personal trainer on Wednesday so I'm sure she will kick my butt then onto 2 nightshifts.

I'm now waiting outside Morrisons considering a first response test could really make or break my day lolol!!!!!!

To be fair I really feel amazing after going to the gym it's the getting there that's hard.... I've a cheek I have one where I live! Can find myself getting my kit on then sitting watching reruns of masterchef on the sofa while eating crisps..... they say it's the thought that counts! If it was I'd be a size 8! 😂😂

I'll go tomorrow..... 🙈
