We are a bunch of ladies who are either

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

And everything in between!

We've had 8 BFPs since January (and counting!) and we love a bit of lucky lube and a squinter on 9DPO - come and join the madness!

Oh tigger you must be so scared ❤️ I'm sure everything is okay, thank goodness you've managed to book a scan later. It'll all be fine ❤️ hopefully your afternoon tea distracts you a bit. Eat lots of cake Cake do your mum and sister know?

Penguin27 · 07/04/2017 14:05

Oh mummy that's strange ... maybe a difference in ewcm means something different is happening! Fx for you!

Tigger83 · 07/04/2017 14:28

Thanks everyone I'm holding onto the hope that it's brown clots not red sorry if tmi and very small. No one knows other than oh. Don't want to spoil their day x

NaturWilde · 07/04/2017 14:47

Hope you're holding up Tigger Flowers

DancingUnicorn · 07/04/2017 15:00

penguinsandotters · 07/04/2017 15:44

Redpony1 · 07/04/2017 16:06

I'm logging off now, but just wanted to say I'm thinking of you Tigger Flowers

Wiggleyfingers · 07/04/2017 17:05

Oh Tigger ❤️ how scary for you. Keep yourself busy after your afternoon tea. It must be horrible to have to go and pretend everything is fine when you are so worried. I have everything crossed with you and will be thinking of you at 7pm. I really hope your OH is going with you for support.

Seven have you finished for Easter holidays now? Can't remember if there are any other teachers in our group? I'm mostly up to date but may tip my toe into the dreaded report pool over the next fortnight. Going to try my best not to go in and tamper with my classroom!

HopefullyDothButterNoParsnips · 07/04/2017 17:16

Oh Tigger hope everything is ok. I'm lease let us all know how you get on - will be thinking of you. Brown spotting is a good sign so try not to fret love xx

Can I join in please ladies?

tigher hope everything is ok.

Age: 34
TTC #2 (DS is 3)
Cycle 1, im currently 2DPO (I think)
AF due 17th although this is my first month off the pill so who knows! I used ovulation tests though so fairly sure I ovulated on weds or thereabouts.

Congratulations to everyone who is expecting already.

BasinHaircut · 07/04/2017 17:21

tigger, not tigher!

buzzmoon · 07/04/2017 17:24

Welcome basin! Fingers crossed for 17th 🤞🏽

Seven0fNine · 07/04/2017 17:26

Haha wiggley I've already been off for a week and haven't done any work. I'm lucky with regards to reports because my main school is SEN (for naughty kids) and so not many to do compared to mainstream secondary. However, I have a billion other things to do but it's soooooo nice have some time off! I could imagine it's soo time consuming doing reports for primary (you are primary right?)
Have you just broken up today?

Hope Tigger is OK xxxxx

HbH · 07/04/2017 17:27

Thinking of you Tigger, can't believe how shit the EPU were. You can imagine them fobbing you off if it was a few twinges but spotting is super worrying for someone if you haven't had it before, you totally deserve some reassurance.... very annoyed on your behalf. Hope all goes well at 7pm, big hugs x x

Welcome newbies!

Fingers crossed for Orange & Mummy getting through the TWW!!

HbH · 07/04/2017 17:33

Hope you're popping the cork tonight wiggley to celebrate breaking up! (& a non alch equivalent for you MrsC)

HeyJupiter · 07/04/2017 17:36

Forgot to say hello to cookies and basin - welcome to the group ladies :)

HeyJupiter · 07/04/2017 17:37

And hoorah to all those breaking up for the holidays! I'm not booo BUT not long until the bank holidays.

How is your nausea buzz ? mine isn't great in the mornings but tends to be fine after that. Just totally exhausted all the time ugh.

Happy Friday everyone x

Tigger not long to wait now my lovely xx

buzzmoon · 07/04/2017 17:40

jupiter mines okay as long as I'm full, and feeling hungry all the time so eating so I don't feel sick! And it has to be carbs! And I've just bought a Waitrose bannofee pie for dessert!! What is life 😂 how are you?

Yes to those on holiday now! Can't wait till next week! Scan and 4 day weekend 🎉

HeyJupiter · 07/04/2017 17:45

Oh god yes it's your scan next week buzz, how exciting! Think it's MrsCs on Sunday? I'm okay thanks, ravenously hungry too and bit worried about putting on loads of weight (definitely can afford to!)

Tigger83 · 07/04/2017 18:13

Just on my way, meeting my oh there... I'll let you know how I get on. Thanks for all the ❤

DancingUnicorn · 07/04/2017 18:14

All the prayers and ❤ Tigger, for you and oh.

TheGrumpySquirrel · 07/04/2017 18:30

Good luck tigger x

DancingUnicorn · 07/04/2017 18:31

How had today been grumpy? 💐

TheGrumpySquirrel · 07/04/2017 19:09

It was fine thanks dancing my mum and aunts did some very beautiful readings and a eulogy for my grandma then after bringing her to the crematorium we went to a Dutch pub for dinner. Really nice to see my extended family even though obviously a sad occasion. Now on way back to where we are staying (with a family friend) i am absolutely exhausted and ready to collapse on the sofa!

Told my cousin I am pregnant as I could not think of an excuse not to go and see her chickenpox ridden baby. She is sworn to secrecy! She covered for me and told her mum they are busy tomorrow so can't have visitors.

DancingUnicorn · 07/04/2017 19:14

I'm glad it was a nice, if sad occasion! Glad your cousin was good about things!!
