@NannyGR I'm away all weekend so want to hold out until at least Monday. It'll be 12dpo so I think that's sane!

Happy boobie squeezing!!!

Hey guys!!

My lines have finally started getting darker. AF should've been due tomorrow at the very very latest.

CD 5 today ladies so nothing exciting happening here. I'm drinking my raspberry leaf tea though! I've only managed one cup a day so far...is this enough so you think?!
It's quite strong isn't it.

GL to anyone whose DTD in fertile week. That's the best time. Who is very close to testing?

Happy hump day ladies!

Age: 26
TTC #2
Cycle 10
BFP Due: Erm as I'm not OPKing this month I'm going to guess at 15th April

My stats are:
Cycle 5
CD3
BFP due: 09/04

Cakes Thanks, you’re right, it’s impossible to keep track of everyone – the thread is getting very busy which is great. I think 12DPO is a very respectable time to test. I’ll keep my fx for you.

Amanda I have weekly acupuncture and I would highly recommend it. It has definitely helped me, I used to get painful cramps on CD1 every cycle, now they are just very mild cramps.

EMH Sorry to hear about your BFN, fx your BFP is being elusive!

Stowie Welcome aboard the PMA Express

Bella #gettingjiggyonamondaywhoopwhoop put me down for one of those tops 😊#girlgang #girlpower I think your peggy is going to drop it like its hot very soon hun

Roxy Welcome aboard the PMA Express

Phase Don’t blame you for not testing #nothingworsethanabfn

Moo Glad you liked my poem 😊 Hope the nausea was just a one off. My naturopath said that sickness is related to blood sugar so if you have a handful of mixed nuts every 4 hours, this should keep it at bay.

Yes - Charley where are you?

salem where are you thinking of going on holiday?

MrsB Big relief it’s not the menopause. Good luck with the nurse next Tuesday, hopefully she will spread some light.

Helly #happyhumping enjoy your fw 😊

Soph whoop whoop for a static smile, makes those clear blue bad boys worth every penny!

patient I hear ya … if one more person tells me to relax, or stop thinking about it, I swear I won’t be responsible for my actions. This TTC lark is on my mind pretty much every hour of every day – I would actually love to forget about it for a day or two, but it just doesn’t happen. In all my 38 years, I have never paid so much attention to my cycle day, my cm or my diet!

NannyG Glad you like the pics this morning 😊 Will you be testing early hun? I think symptom spotting sucks if I’m honest, it just fuels expectations. I don’t think everyone gets symptoms early anyway!

Cakes Glad I’m not the only boob grabber 😊 I can’t wait to get humping again … DP blew me out on Sunday as he was too tired #grrrrrrrrrrrr

So after my static smiley yday morning I started with pain in the area of my right ovary last night and still got it this morning - presuming ovulation is imminent.

Managed to dtd on Monday and Tuesday. Might manage it today but DH is feeling the pressure so might leave it until tmrw.

That's get that the line is getting darker Ohb. Believe - it's happening!

Hi girls

Those memes r so funny haha and accurate!!!!

My stats

Age: 28
TTC: 1
Cycle: 5
BFP: 15th April

Lol at the memes! Had a proper cry last night as was away with work so by myself in a hotel, I wish I could have some sort of memory blank in the 2ww it's fucking dreadful.

Thanks though hippy!

@NannyGR & @CakesALot also going try to hold out until Sunday and after that Tuesday!fingers crossed.

Randomly catch myself squeezing my own tit! Got a weird look in costa this morning I can tell you! 😂🙈 boobs are definitely bigger.... well maybe?! 😆

Hi to the newbies!

Ohb - sorry i missed your post, earlier... great news that the lines are getting darker :)

Anna I'm on your tail - CD3 here :) one cup a day should be fine. i find it rather bland.

Magpie wow two days of static smiley... maybe you're releasing two eggs :)

Amanda Glad you like the memes.

EMH Nothing wrong with a good old cry ... i had a fair few on the weekend ... try and stay positive .... you're always one month closer to your BFP

I hate the 2ww too @EMH - it's so cruel. Wish there was a quicker way of finding out. Hugs and mental strength being sent to everyone in their 2ww. I'm joining you as of tmrw.

It's the worst part of the cycle for me. I often think, why can't google give me an answer?? Surely in this modern age that should be possible?!

I am utterly bored at work today so googled 'am I pregnant' and low and behold there's a quiz!!

And it's a load of shite...

😂😂😂

I'm due this Sunday 19th. Im starting to feel a little bloated and already I'm feeling a bit cheesed off. I have a pimple so fully expecting her.

I'm going to get some raspberry leaf tea if I get af and start it next cycle.

I'm actually bit of a mess. More spotting today. Aunt Flo not due for a week. Sorry guys my PMA has gone awol so I'll bow out this thread until I sort my shit out 😔❤️

I'm on CD 3. Feel opitimistic about new cycle. Knowing I'm not pregnant this month I'll concentrate on gym. I am a god mother at end of April so should really get my act together.

If on more person tells me just to relax and it will happen I might scream!!!!!! Lol!!!! I wasn't going to bother with OPKs but I would like to kind of know when I am ovulating. My cycles have been between 30-35 days. Only been tracking since December though.

So any tips for this month girls? I feel like I have read some before. I'll try the raspberry tea xxxx

Oh girls! We need to keep the PMA alive. It seems to have been floundering.

Yes! Let's all get in the raspberry leaf tea. I managed two cups tide so will just see what I fancy.

My pre seed had arrived for this cycle! Hoping it might do the trick for us! How do you girls usually use it? If any of you do, or what amount?

Xxx

Oh EMHW - it's only human nature to feel a bit down or defeated at times! We can't always be happy and positive, especially going through the stressful TTC journey! But count this as a down day and check back in tomorrow, you may feel completely different! This thread is here to support and I, and I'm sure everyone else, don't mind talking things through etc.

cakes In my TWW I remember googling EVERY DAY - 1 DPO symptoms, 2 DPO symptoms, 3 DPO..... honestly, I drove myself CRAZY! Google probably remotely implanted a pregnancy just so I would stop annoying them!!!

anna good luck with the preseed this cycle! First night I used it, I think I inserted 4ml in and just about drowned myself! Made everything super slippy and not enjoyable. After that, I stuck to 2ml (if that!) And worked a treat for my BFP! Well, maybe coincidence but I'm sure it had something to do with it!

Sorry salem, my stats if I'm not too late!

Age: 28
TTC #1
Cycle: 3 of properly trying
BFP achieved 03/03
5+3 hopefully very sticky bean!

Oh I might try the pressed then. I heard people saying about using cough medicine? Has anyone tried this lol x

Evening ladies -
I know it's hard to keep the PMA up but every month we are one month closer to our bfp or giving birth in your case dolly moo and ohb
Projection is perception

Dolly thanks for the advice re pre seed. So do you think I should start off with 2ml an see how I get on? I produce a fair amount of my own lubrication at FW anyway so can see how 4ml would be way too much!

Really hoping it works for us too and gives more of the swimmers chance to get up there!

Midst of fw, was all excited for lots of dtd, well did it tonight and Monday night DH didn't release the Doreen! Both times were v long and he had tired mphimself out he couldn't 'finish' the job! Flipping frustrating!! I'm like thinking cmon love quicker is fine but as long you get the job done! Doing all I can not to say this but think he's starting to put too much pressure on himself and seems to think as we are now proper proper 'trying' it has to be marathon sessions! Worried it's another month out but hope when he gets back from the football we can have a quickie before bed! Grrr! Hope everyone else is having better luck!

@hellybellyjellybean quickies are perfect for most of your fw! Certainly in this household. DH has been through exactly the same on the not finishing the job issue, although his was because of meds he was on. That and the pressure of me probably subconsciously glaring at him for his Doreen's made for some awkward sessions 😬😬 we got DD during this time though. And a previous pregnancy that ended in mmc. It just takes one Doreen after all!

@EMHW123 no need to bow out hun. Keep popping in even if it's just for a read. And rant away if you need to. We all believe in the benefits of PMA but it's bloody hard keeping it up all the time.

evening y'all

another day, another flashing smiley OPKs (one this morn and 2 this evening)! not complaining as i'd be in a right huff if i'd missed peggy!

have given DH the night off from pumpage. he too seems to be too focussed on the pressure of releasing the doreen's and has
turned love making into a chore, so since tuesday, i haven't told him that we have flashing smileys and hope peak fertility any day now. since not telling him i'm POAS daft, he's back to his usual self, giving it large to doreen left right and centre! i actually cannot be bothered tonight!

if static smiley arrives in the morning, i might just resort to (shameful admission alert) a handjob to wake him up and then shake my toosh towards the finish line 🙈 what's a girl to do when she's tired 🤷🏼‍♀️

do we have any BFP news? i haven't the energy this evening to scroll back #sorry #humpdayenergylow

also, girl gang Tshirts are now on order! doing a BOGOF with these beauts 😂😘 #ladycuntington #bantereventhoughimsleepy

Just thought I'd try n cheer you all up xxx
