TTC FIRST BABY THREAD NO.7

[Delilah7]

Another thread ladies ❤️

@Crossfitgirl oh no not af 🙁 has she already arrived or is it just spotting? Perhaps it's not over yet?
After all our smeping I can't believe we haven't got our bfps?! I am going to try smep again this cycle and if it doesn't work I might try stopping opks and temping and just Dtd every other day.

I am torn with preseed, I have heard so many good things about it but DH finds it much harder to reach the finish line with it as it makes everything too slippery!

@MrsR16 10 grandchildren already, that is impressive!!

@cupcakesandglitter I love that you have them picked out already!
I have had a list of baby names on my phone for the last 10 years!

@MrsR16 Wow 10?? This baby will be the first on both sides of the family. If your sister won't be using the name Niamh, I'd go for it!

@FlapJackered ooh yes! I've always sort of known which ones I want - I'd love to share them but they'd be super outing 😭😭

Omg @Charm23 that is impressive!! How lovely for your parents 😊 I bet DH's parents will be over the moon when you announce it!! Xx

Sorry not @Charm23 I meant @MrsR16 !! Xx

@cupcakesandglitter just don't sneeze while your legs are up or while you're waiting after the dtd 🤣 made that mistake once.

@FlapJackered use very little PreSeed. Their instructions suggest using way too much. Learned it the hard way after I used almost a third of the tube at once and DH compared it to a dead fish flopping in the waterfall.

@Crossfitgirl yes Hun they are the CM. I think I ovulated weeks commencing 15th. Flo said 19th. As annoying as it is relaxing does help abit! Xxxx

@rj995 I always get up straight away and go loo and now I'm pregnant so I wouldn't worry! Xxx

@Emmalouise5688 welcome Hun x x

@Charm23 @Crossfitgirl @MrsR16 I have a few names picked out. Might not like them hahaha.
Oscar James ( James is a tradition in my OHs family )
Eva Mary ( Eva was my Nannie's mums name and I promised her before she died ) and Mary is both nan's middle names! Xx

@MrsM2017 Thank you lovely xxx

@FlapJackered @Charm23 @cupcakesandglitter yeah, joys of having 3 siblings! 3 of the 9 nieces and nephews are inherited (my SIL had them before she married my brother) but they're just as much part of the family as the others! Spread between 21 years old and 2 😊 it's about time we had a new baby in the family!

@Delilah7 I love those! They're so gorgeous 😘 xx

@MrsR16 I'm so glad.
My sister told me she hated Eva Mary when I told her what I'd like a while ago xxx

@Delilah7 thankfully it's not your sister's baby! 😊 Eva's an awesome name, it'll be easy for them to spell when they're old enough! Xx

@Delilah7 Eva is up there on my list too! I like Eve and Evie too. ❤️

@FlapJackered @MrsR16 thank you Hun x xxx

@KatBeCool 😂 love that analogy!!! My hubby said something similar after we tried preseed! Lol

@KatBeCool OMG I've done it before 😂 and I was faced opposite the mirror so I saw the whole thing. Made DH come and look and he was horrified 😂😂😂😂 happened again last night, I decided to keep my legs on him, and then he made me laugh... whoops 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

@Delilah7 I love those names! Forget your sister 😂 Eva is beautiful x

@cupcakesandglitter thanks girl. Still finding it hard to let it sink in 😂😂 x

@Delilah7 I can imagine! When I'm pg I don't think I'll believe it either 😂😂 it's a surreal thing! What did your OH say? Xx

@cupcakesandglitter he was over the moon. He's scared though. Said he won't believe it properly till a scan which tbh I won't either. As soon as my belly grows I'll believe it hahaha xx

@Delilah7 aww fingers crossed this is it for you both ❤️ just don't stress about it!! X

@cupcakesandglitter trying not to :) x x

@Delilah7 that's true, I'll maybe try for a little tho!! what cycle was this for you?😊xx

How's everyone feeling today? Is anyone in the dreaded TTW? Hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend!

@rj995 I'm in the tww, and trying to stay calm about it! how bout you?

Currently about 7 dpo (if flo app is right) so got another week or so before AF shows - or hopefully doesn't!

Just booked myself a blood test pre empting having to do my day 21 bloods again, feels like ages away as not til the 23rd November and not sure if I should be giving it everything again this month or just not worry until I know what my bodies doing 🤷🏻‍♀️

@sunshine1987 I hear that 😩 this month I'm just going to try and DTD whenever we can, but there's no point stressing myself over it this month until I know what's going on? Maybe do the same this month until you have your answer too? X

@rj995 well first cycle I got pregnant was 3rd cycle and this one was 3 months after that! Xxx

@Delilah7 Eva is a lovely name!

DH and I have two girls names and one boys name picked out, we spent ages discussing it sitting on a beach a while ago and they were the only three names we could agree on, so no idea what we’d do if we ended up with two boys 😂

@MrsR16 wow 10 grandchildren must be a lot to deal with, I’m picturing total chaos at Christmas and other family events! A baby of mine would be the first grandchild on my side, and my DM would be insanely excited.

DH just told me that he went to see the doctor yesterday, to talk about ttc. He was worried that as he’s a bit older than me (43) his sperm wouldn’t be as good as when he was younger. The dr told him that he should have nothing to worry about, but I’m really impressed that he decided to do that all on his own!
