Thread 6 already. We are a bunch of ladies who are either

  • humping (TTC)
  • by humping yet (waiting to TTC)
  • humped (preggers)

And everything in between!

We've had 7 BFPs in three months and we love a bit of lucky lube and a squinter on 9DPO - come and join the madness!

Absolutely, I always say if men had to do it they could have found a better painless way by now! I also went into early labour at 37+2 so if that happens again then it's probably be no c section for me whether they agree or not! Anyway will cross that bridge if I come to it! Hopefully it'll all be a breeze for you second time around!

Thanks unicorn and nobody really knows what they are doing with babies, it's just kind of muddle on and hope for the best! Night love, hope u sleep well x

mrs the birth terrifies me but it is so good to hear stories, you have no idea what to expect and it's good to feel a bit more prepared just by hearing about all eventualities. But I'm sure this time will be absolutely fine for you ❤️ You're right dancing lots of reading to do!

Yes so excited for testers tomorrow and I am also tucked up in bed! 9pm feels late now 😂

buzzmoon · 28/03/2017 21:07

Hi pink 👋! Welcome! Are you TTC number 1? :)

HeyJupiter · 28/03/2017 21:15

I'm in bed too Grin

Just quick one to say good luck to penguin and grumpy for tomorrow x

JB1983 · 28/03/2017 21:22

Welcome to the thread pink.
I hope you get your request for a c-section MrsC, sounds like you certainly deserve one.
What is the magic lube that you guys mentioned? Need to start getting prepared - eek!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 28/03/2017 21:25

Night all, will update around 6am tomorrow! Grin

Wiggleyfingers · 28/03/2017 22:13

Aaaaaaaaaaah! Amazing grumpy ... that'll be a lovely line in a few days!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 29/03/2017 06:17

I'm ok but first reaction was lots of tears because I am so scared (mostly about work consequences and travel). I tested at 5:30 when I woke up, line didn't show for a couple of minutes and then it looked like a shadow at first.. I woke up DH and just cried! We are happy but kind of don't believe it yet! He cried too! Here is a slightly better photo:

Defo, shag now ~ sort later!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 29/03/2017 06:43

Lol buzz 😁👶🏼 thank you all for your kind words.. I am still in disbelief I do not feel any different - pretty much no symptoms! Slightly sore boobs but not more than usual at this point in cycle

TheGrumpySquirrel · 29/03/2017 06:47

Ovia says she's proud of me .. and has switched me over to the pregnancy app! Chia seed size apparently!

Just woke DD.. she said the cats aren't going to be happy.. and she wants it to be a girl 😄

Penguin27 · 29/03/2017 06:52

Grumpy, you're humped!!! Congratulations!! GrinGrin

BFN for me this morning... I'll retest either Friday or Saturday, I think.

MrsC, your experience of childbirth does sound frightening, I can definitely understand why you're asking for an elcs this time around.

Happy Wednesday all x

buzzmoon · 29/03/2017 06:53

Sorry pemguin I still have hope for you this month! You're not out till you're out! ❤️
