TTC FIRST BABY THREAD NO.7

[Delilah7]

Another thread ladies ❤️

I know lovely, but chances are everything will be ok. What time is the appointment?

@FlapJackered 1pm :(

@delilah7 sending you lots of love today, all will be ok darling xx

@sunshine1987 I hope so :( xxx

@Delilah7 thinking of you today! Positive thinking - it will be fine!! Xx

@MrsR16 trying to be positive x x

Had an okay day yesterday. Woken up feeling emotional today.

I put a tweet up on an anonymous Twitter I have about TTC for 5 months and it being hard emotionally and got shot down by 3 people. Wasn't very nice. Think I'll be sticking to here in the future to vent my frustrations. 🙁

AF is due tomorrow and the only pre menstrual sign I feel is slight cramping. It's really bizarre. I'd rather it just turned up so we can move on to cycle 6. 😑

Hope you're all doing well this morning!

@Delilah7 it will be difficult and I bet these last few hours before your appointment will drag like anything! However, we'll all be here waiting with baited breath when you come back with awesome news xx

@MrsR16 fingers crossed I do hun xxxx

Thinking of you @Delilah7 try not to stress too much, everything is going to be fine

@Delilah7 Good luck with your scan today, try to relax and just enjoy the day any way you can. Hope you're feeling better

Hope it goes well today @Delilah7

@SullyWifey no peak in temperature yet today, still 'mountains'. Quite consistent with where I was at this time last month funnily.

At work today and forgot to bring an OPK to do at lunch time (doh!) so will do one when I get home this evening and see if that's back to nothing! I know the OPK can be positive a day or two before ovulation so just need to keep an eye on my temp still.

Sorry for TMI but noticed this month a real lack of CM. Usually I do get more around ovulation but this month not noticed any EWCM. Wondering if just where we've been DTD more often that could have changed it...

@MrsAW2018 Try not to let them get to you, they haven't walked a mile in your shoes and you're allowed to feel what you're feeling

@Delilah7 good luck! I'm sure everything will look great.

@FlapJackered my hubby is finding smep harder and harder every month, you're not alone.

@EltzBee how do you check for your ewcm? I read that just because not much is coming out doesn't mean there's nothing inside. They suggested shoving two fingers up to your cervix and doing a scissor motion to grab any cm and checking it. I wasn't gonna do that but if you're willing... good luck!

@EltzBee same here my temp is doing the mountains thing too! I think I'm going to O tonight or tomorrow morning?!! But I'm guessing here. Feeling a bit all over the place with it at the moment. Keeps getting later which means my cycles keep getting longer.

Looking back through charts I normally get a positive OPK two days before O so I guess that makes sense.

Also what you say about EWCM I usually don't get any or if any the smallest bit and even that I have to go looking for it. But this month total opposite, loads of it! You may of not noticed it if DTD more than usual though as could have got mixed in.

@MrsAW2018 sorry to hear that hun people can be awful trolls. Just stick to here xxx

@Delilah7 good luck today. X

@KatBeCool ah okay, interesting - I usually base it on what I can see. I think I'm too sqeamish to go searching hahaha!

@SullyWifey I think my body must have heard me wondering where it was, as noticed some EWCM when I went to the loo earlier! So fingers crossed. Going to hopefully persuade the husband to 'dtd' again tonight just in case!

Thinking of you today @delilah7 hope all goes well x

Measuring 4/5 weeks. Had a cry. Go back in 2 weeks.

Hugs @Delilah7 ❤️

Oh @Delilah7 ❤️ fx you just ovulated later than you thought, I'm sure all will be well in two weeks xxx

Guys do you mind if I post a TMI pic with all this talk of Cm? Please let me know - I had an orgasm like night, fell straight to sleep (whoops) and then when I wiped this morning honest to god it was the stretchiest thing I have ever seen, I even have a picture of it. I've tried to read online about arousal fluid etc but it's not so clear cut - no sex so it's 100% not DH, but I've just never seen anything so stretchy. Does anyone have any thoughts/can I post a pic? I'm on CD20 and haven't had a + OPK yet and I'm supposed to be getting my CD21 bloods tomorrow...

@Delilah7 aren’t measurements at your stage of pregnancy often very inaccurate anyway? I thought it was fairly common to measure a week or so out in either direction at a 6 week scan. Anyway, take care of yourself today, have a nice relaxing bath when you get home and watch something funny on Netflix

@cupcakesandglitter post away, no such thing as tmi on this thread 😂 do you track your temp at all? Or get any ovulation pain that would help you pinpoint it?

@EltzBee other than my last post, I've been crazily dry too! I read online that it should pretty much always be "damp" down there but i am completely bone dry 😂

Oh @MrsAW2018 it's so hard! I think it's easy for people to just shoot down how you feel if you've not been trying as long as others but even one month of TTC is torturous (I'm not downplaying people that are TTC for years at all) x

@FlapJackered we've gone from SMEP to only having sex once this month - I think DH is fed up and tbh my sex Drive is decreasing too! It's so bloody difficult isn't it x

@stormtrooperjulian posted below!! I don't temp because my charts were all over the place which was stressing me out! I had some weird cramp on Monday evening when I was driving, but pretty much nothing since then. I feel like I don't even know my body anymore because it just messes with my head 😩 x
