So just catching up on the thread from last night…
Rainbow Echo what the other ladies said… crack on regardless, the doctors don’t always get it right. Thank you for the sleep advice – I get loads, I go to bed early every night #rocknrolllifestyleNOT
Bella I love catching up on the comments over a cuppa too, I’m so addicted to our chit chat, it’s like a real life corrie and we get to have it every day. I seriously don’t know what I would do without you lovely ladies! Nice to hear you’re enjoying the RLT – I must be drinking something different as I find it rather bland! #downthehatch #cheers Love your comment – feck the fecking feckers that look at a willy & get pg, laughed out fecking loud this morning to that, nearly choked on my latte!
Charley Googling symptoms does drive you nuts, that is a TTC fact I think…. Every month I try not to do this, and I think I’ve done reasonably ok this cycle, ok I’m fucking lying, my searches go a little like this ‘symptoms at 7dpo’, ‘symptoms at 8dpo’ etc etc. I read different articles for about 5-10 minutes and then think ‘fuck it, everyone is different anyway’. Yesterday I was googling images of bfps at 7dpo …. No I couldn’t find any! LOL. I’m good today thank you, just trying hard to keep a balanced perspective – I’m 8dpo today / CD25 which is when I usually start knicker watch… my cycles are 26-29 days and as I ovulated later this month I’ve pushed my bfp due date back to Saturday which will be 12dpo…. I’ve had a few symptoms but I’m not really sure if they’re bfp related so I’m just trying not to think about it, which is freaking difficult. I’ve got a couple of FRER’s so I could test today, but I’m too scared to so I think I’ll ride it out.
In terms of losing weight ladies – I’m currently putting on a few lb’s as I quit smoking 44 days ago, at the moment I’m considering it as ‘healthy weight’ but if it carries on creeping up, I might have to join you!
EMH You made me laugh about them expecting you to actually go to the gym! Wow nearly £100 per month, that’s an expensive gym… mines just gone up to £35 and I feel disgruntled as I’ve dropped from 5-6 times a week to 4!
Amanda It is hard to always stay positive, especially when the freaking witch rocks up uninvited… but if you aim to stay positive most of the time, it does tend to make it a little bit easier. Thank you for sharing the story of your friend who conceived against the odds, its lovely to hear stories like this, all too often you hear the words ‘we weren’t even trying’…. #swiftthroatpunch It is shit when people tell you to chill and relax…. I’ve had this advice so many times from different people…. Thing is, it’s not in my genetic makeup to relax and chill – when I want something, I go all out to get it and won’t freaking give up until I get it…. Relaxing and chilling does not compute with this approach! It is hard not to obsess about it – that’s why we’re all here to support you, because men don’t really get it! It will definitely help to use OPK’s as I’ve noticed my ovulation date varies from CD15-CD17 which incidentally is slightly outside of the fertile week predicted by the stupid apps…. Which I no longer use for this reason.
Salem Hope AF has stayed away! Sounds like you’re getting your PMA back. 11 DPO is good in that your luteal phase has got longer, #PMA. Hey – try not to worry about DH’s operation, I know this is easier said than done, I’m a natural born worrier too but like Bella says worrying just leads to stress that you certainly don’t need… I’m sure it will be fine, it sounds quite common as a few other ladies DP’s on here have had it too, and there’s not that many of us. I wouldn’t even know if my DP had had this!
Soph Hope you enjoyed your horse riding lesson.
Cakes I keep promising myself that I’ll do some yoga but then I never get round to it. I have bought a yoga pregnancy dvd though for when I’m upduffed 😊
Rose hey what cycle day are you on now hun? Sorry I forget… I’m just hoping you get you BFP before the hycosy. I think a Christmas baby would make the best present ever 😊
Moo I’ve done that a couple of times, commented and then not realised that we are a few pages on…. Least you can blame it on baby brain… 😊
MrsB Hello xxx
Mummy Glad you like the pics 😊 Did you go anywhere nice on holiday? I’ve booked my holiday for June now, my BFP is being so elusive that I just need to have something to look forward to. My folks have a little apartment in Pafos, Cyprus, so we’re off there for 11 days yaaaaaaay.
SORRY TO SEE THE BFN PICS #hateelusivebfps
Archies I hope your thermometer is faulty and your cramps are BFP related! FX for you hun.
