@Delilah7 I think AF may have me! Still just spotting but I'm wary.

How are things on your end?

@ValidUser hi lovely. Are you due on?? Would be a shame if it was but I wouldn't class spotting as a period ;) so fingers crossed. Yeah ok thanks. Wanting AF to turn up next week if it's gonna happen!! Xx

@Delilah7 all good here lovely, 2DPO so all of the sex has stopped as we've had enough lol 🙈. How are you getting on this month? x

@ValidUser aw I hope you get an answer soon!

@Delilah7 how are things doing with you? Even though it's my first cycle, I'm now symptom spotting... and I'm now on my TWW!

@sunshine1987 you've literally been on fire 😂😂 you've defo covered all bases! I would be pleased to have the rest. Well kind of getting fed up of not knowing if I've managed to catch after this miscarriage so half hoping AF turns up next week when she should! X

@MrsR16 abit fed up of this month, want it to be over 😂 aww. Symptom spotting is so normal and you'll realise what's normal and what isn't x x x

@Delilah7 it must be so frustrating not knowing... this is where I could wish we could fast forward time! Haha 😂

@Delilah7 when is AF due? I know you've had such a crap month, hope it comes on time and you can reset again xx

@MrsR16 me too Hun but it's part of our journey!

@sunshine1987 due in 9 day's time if I count my miscarriage first bleeding day as my period.... so who knows xx

I've read some articles over the past few months about TTC and within those they generally say not to drink (or cut down) whilst TTC (not just during the tww). From what I can gather, this isn't necessarily to avoid harming the baby if you do catch on but more to have a healthier environment for the egg to fertilise and just general health. It isn't such a big thing for me because I don't drink anyway but I just thought I'd throw out there what I had read in various places.

@Delilah7 sorry, I've not been on here much the last few days. We've got a similar wait. Having late ovulation would make my cycle close to 35 days this cycle. They seem to drag so much! I'm think AF is due either Tues 28th or Wed 29th. It's our 1st anniversary on 31st so everything is crossed for this to be our month!
How are you? Been keeping busy I hope! X

@purplestar9 just a pain isn't it. Mine would work out my normal cycle length ( which would be good after a miscarriage ) of 28 day's if it comes in 9 day's but who knows.... I've been ok. Tried to take my mind off it but there are babies pregnant ladies and everything everywhere haha xx

@Crossfitgirl thanks! 😂 tbh I'm starting to feel like a walking sperm bank! How are you getting on?

@ValidUser still keeping everything 🤞hope it doesn't progress

@Delilah7 sorry didn't realise! Wasn't really on much this weekend either, how was your trip to the zoo?

Xx

@Delilah7 got everything crossed for you, hope this is your month 💜

@Delilah7 that would be really good if you get your normal cycle back straight away! It's so easy for people to say to you to keep busy but it's so much easier said than done isn't it?! I hope you enjoyed the zoo! :) do you work? What hours do you usually do? X

@ttcat32 a walking sperm bank made me LOL 😂
Tiring. 5:30am - 10:30pm. I was KNACKERED lol. Took my mind off everything though! You been ok? Xx

@sunshine1987would be nice but I doubt it Hun :( ❤️

@purplestar9 it really is. If I'm honest since this weekend I haven't thought much about it until today so that's good. Just want to know what my bodies going to do. Work full time 7am - 4pm xx

@purplestar9 I'm not a big drinker anyway, but gin when AF comes isn't a whole awful lot. If I ran into trouble conceiving I might consider, but in my years as a doctor the number of drunkenly conceived babies make me think one or two might be fine!

That's a long day @Delilah7! Hope you enjoyed!
I'm ok, fed up with not knowing re the ov so just decided I did 😂

@Crossfitgirl I haven't tried temping, do you do it? X

@ttcat32 I'm the same Hun 😂😂 I'm trying to keep saying yep I did yep I did but who the fuck knows hahaha x

@Delilah7 that's good then! Hopefully full time work should keep you occupied during the day then! I'm 9-5 5 days p/w so I only really have evenings and weekends to try occupy my mind (and those quiet times in work where my mind just wanders!).
I feel so tired this evening, I'm blaming it on DH who woke me up (unintentionally) at 4am because he had heartburn or something!

@ValidUser of course! Being a non drinker myself obviously makes no difference to me anyway :) but for those who enjoys it then why not! 👍😀

@purplestar9 once my husband woke me up at 4am to say hi... 😂

@ValidUser 😂 was he drunk? Haha!
I'd have been really annoyed if mine had done that to me! I like my sleep. I'm most definitely not a morning person (or a middle of the night person!) ... bodes well for motherhood! 🤨

Like yourself, he is a non-drinker! Not sure what got into him...

@ValidUser even better! 🤣 let's hope he doesn't make a habit of it!

God I feel like an alcoholic compared to everybody! Feeling guilty now 😕
