TTC FIRST BABY THREAD NO.6

[Delilah7]

New thread before I forget and lots of new people join ❤️❤️❤️

@Welshpugmomma I felt horrendously sick yesterday morning, but I reckon that was genuine illness! Haha! Bit of a tight stomach and feeling bloated but I don't really know what they could mean!

@welshpugmomma yeah it's great, it's like he seen how fed up i was with it all last week and he's done a we not of research to do his bit and take the pressure off me for a bit! Hope you figure out what's happening, I've never had much luck with OPKs, but I work funny shifts etc so was never testing at the same time so wasn't very reliable or accurate.

@delilah7 sorry to hear that, hope things get a bit easier for you. Although sometimes these things can't be helped xxx

Hi everyone, thought I would pop back on to say hi :) am feeling a lot better now
Lots of new faces on here and I don't recognise that many so here's a bit about me for everyone who I haven't seen before,
TTC since march and was on this board for a while before but then I had an early MC a few weeks ago,
not really sure when I will ovulate but I have gotten an almost positive opk this morning so fingers crossed they get darker throughout the day

@RanchoRelaxo welcome back. How are you doing?

CD8 and completely different this month, can’t psycho symptom spot because there’s no symptoms which isn’t normal, so obviously that means I’m pregnant right? 😂🙈 I can honestly at this point turn anything round. Feeling really relaxed this time as we’re off on an all inclusive holiday in a couple of weeks so if it doesn’t happen this month I’ve that to look forward to x

@ranchorelaxo welcome back lovely, hope you’re ok xx

@mrsof20118 I'm good thanks! Keep having thoughts of 'if this worked out I would have been X weeks along today' but there's nothing I can do about it, so am just focusing on trying again!

@RanchoRelaxo we've missed you!

@RanchoRelaxo, I'm glad you're feeling better xx Saw 'your' Simpson's episode the other day and thought of you! :)

Delilah7, sounds like you're still having a rough time with lots going on. Sending hugs and there's no such thing as 'too much chocolate' in my opinion, especially when stressed! X

Mostly quiet here, work is busy because of everyone having half term off, so just a couple of us in. I think if af doesn't appear this weekend (it will though!) may test so we know, as I'm due to go to Spain with friends mid Nov. I don't drink or anything, so that won't be an issue, but would be good to know for sure the situation before heading off!

Morning all, how is everyone doing today?

@RanchoRelaxo glad you’re feeling a bit better now, welcome back!

I’m somewhere around 6-8dpo, boobs started feeling a tiny bit sore yesterday and I had some cramping too so I assume af will be arriving at the weekend as scheduled.

@Welshpugmomma I'm not due till November and I ovulated cd17 or cd18. One of those.

@Rachael321 thanks x x

@RanchoRelaxo welcome back darling x x

@FivexFive thanks honey x

@Welshpugmomma keep on with them - I only got one positive (very strong) this time, and it was on CD 18 - I then ovulated that night, based on my temperature drops as well. I didn't have any 'getting stronger' lines this month either.

Still baffled as to why my App hasn't updated when my period is due, I'm sure it should be later than Fri/Sat based on Ovulation date, but hey ho! Will see what happens.

Hello everyone! So nice to see this thread still going strong. Been away from MN for a bit but thought I would check in and see how you are all doing.

How is everyone feeling? Any BFPs I've missed? Xx

Thanks @feverbee and @Crossfit Ah I'm so confused as my last 2 cycles have been longer than normal so not sure how long this cycle will be, I probably started the opk too early this cycle, will just carry on doing what we doing and carry on the opk out of curiosity, it's more sex than we normally have so lots just hope that'll do the trick haha.

Hi @Ranchorelaxo and anyone else I've not said hello to :)

Hope all the symptom spotting pays off this month for you girls!

X

@RanchoRelaxo it's so hard isn't it.

Hope everyone else is well. I've been so busy with work I haven't had much time to come on here.

I'm currently 6dpo, cd25 due to delay in ovulation after early mc/chemical. Had a weird kind of yellow tinged cm today, kind of like teeny clumps of balls of cm? I had twinges and cramps most of yesterday so wondering whether af is coming on a standard 28 ish day even though I ovulated late? Confusing!

Well, I'm proud that I made it through the TWW only taking one test (BFN on CD12) and not symptom spotting TOO much!

AF is due today and I really don't know what to expect. Was a bit bloated, moody and crampy in the middle of the night last night but nothing yet. Although usually starts in the evening for me. Had absolutely awful back pain on Sunday that is gradually getting better, and opaque stringy CM since about CD10. Very constipated so don't know whats that and what's AF (or not if I'm lucky!). I only have one test so will probably test tomorrow morning but might wait til the following morning in case I ovulated the following day (only going off opk as didn't temp). But probably tomorrow as doubt I'll be able to wait!

@sunshine1987 I was the same last month - no symptoms, so was certain I was pregnant! Can't win can you?! Lol holiday sounds lovely where are you going?

Welcome back @ranchorelaxo glad you're feeling better. How are you getting on @Crystalblaze? One or two BFPs and a shit load of POAS has happened that's what! Lol

@Triskaidekaphilia good luck, I hope AF stays away.

Love to the rest of you in the TWW!

I'm currently off work sick, the cold and my ridiculous business finally got the better of me. for those of you that knew I had a job opportunity I was umming about due to the potential stress, the interview was today so it's been postponed to next week.

I'm currently sat relaxing, has anyone here got Netflix? I have found this AMAZING relaxation section where there's a few programmes just playing relaxing images and music! Loving it, I've watched jellyfish floating about, and now watching waves crash and gorgeous coastal scenes. Ahh. Why didn't I take a sick day sooner.

Despite being ill, I did an OPK today since my temp still hasn't risen, and it was positive- I'm cd18! I've put so much effort into DTD every other day this month, I'm not letting what could be the most crucial one go to waste so I've told DH it's shower sex tonight. Don't want all that DTD up to now to be for nothing! Taken some cocodamol for the win lol x

Ah thanks for all the welcome backs guys, means a lot :)

@FivexFive made me laugh with the Simpsons episode 😂

@mrsof20118 yea it's not easy, is this your first cycle after MC too then? I wasn't too sure what my body would do but I've had a positive opk today which is cd 20, that was normal for me before so am hoping that it's pretty straightforward

@Crossfitgirl hope your feeling better soon, there's so many bugs going round at the moment, I didn't realise there were relaxing things like that on Netflix! Will defo have a look :)

Woohoo 😁

@RanchoRelaxo yay!! Get on it 😋

So yet another couple I know today announced they're expecting! Really hurt this time! 😢

@RanchoRelaxo get doing the deed 😘 good luck for this month lovely x

Hello All, so I had the dreaded cold too @Crossfitgirl so not been on for a while. Thankfully feeling a lot better. How are you doing? Enjoy your shower sex 😜

So much to catch up on, but hope everyone is doing okay! @RanchoRelaxo get riding girl 🤣

So CM question- is EWCM the most fertile or wet CM? I'm on cd11, and had a negative opk today, which is normal, but am the wettest (sorry for tmi 🙈) I have been! And horny!! Jumping on DH tonight for my needs rather than conception 😂

@MrsR16 it's painful isn't it. That's what we all crave so badly. Maybe other people's journeys aren't so easy though - they could have been trying years - you just don't know. It took my work friend 2 years to get pregnant and she said she had to tell people in the end that she had been trying and struggling to concieve after a certain point, just to get people to be more tactful around her as people were essentially rubbing it in without realising.

At least we still have the child free time and the love making and the excitedness ahead of us. We are in the best part of our lives now - being a couple and having the best sex life with no (current) responsibilities! We can still eat soft cheese and have runny eggs for at least another month. Let us enjoy it!

@mrsc87 yeah EWCM is meant to be the best indicator of fertility, so if you're horny too then I'd say go for it! It's a definite sign!

I never seem to get horny around ovulation which is weird, I think my ovulation pains put me off.

To update anyone who wants to know - dad's MRI went well. He was under a lot of strain as they had him doing breathing challenges and he found it really hard. Results back in a few weeks. 👍🏼
