No snow here, @Cocobana! Sad The sun is shining, the sky is blue and there isn't even a hint of a frost. It actually looks so nice outside that I'm going to take DD to the playground for a bit later.

You lucky thing, how heavy is it? I hope theres enough for your DS to enjoy it!! ☃❄

Mfbroome · 17/01/2019 11:30

A tiny flutter of snow here! In the way to school and the kids were so excited - but then it stopped 😂
Where are u @Cocobana to be getting it?! I'm in London so hoping it heads this way 👏🏼👏🏼

Mfbroome · 17/01/2019 11:32

Negative opk this morning but no dtd last night lol so I will just pray that the two days before we're enough 🙈🙏🏼
How is your cramping @PastaSauceHoarder , how many weeks now?
@Cocobana any sign of that +opk?

PastaSauceHoarder · 17/01/2019 11:47

Oh no, your poor kids @Mfbroome. 😂 Bless them!
5+5 weeks today, popped into my local One to One Midwives yesterday, they should call and assign me a midwife tomorrow. Smile Cramping is way better now, though it wasn't actually painful to begin with. Just the odd pull or pinch now, guess it just everything getting into position!

Two days before is definitely enough! They reckon its the build up thats better don't they? That way the swimmers are just up there waiting patiently for the egg. 🙈

MummyBearBoo · 17/01/2019 15:12

I know I’m so grateful to have DD but she’d make sucj a fantastic big isoster she’s got a baby cousin and she is so careful and so lovely with her - I know though even if I get my BFP I can’t get excited until after 13 weeks it has get past the 1 in 4 miscarriage risk, the 1 in 2 chance of it not being healthy after the 11 weeks genetic test and the 2% miscarriage risk for 2 weeks after the CVS!!
We’ve got ice but the sky is clear so now snow!! Xx

Cocobana · 17/01/2019 19:09

@PastaSauceHoarder @Mfbroome aww thank you, unfortunately I spoke too soon and it bloody melted this afternoon Sad oh well lol there’s always next year! How are you both today? No +opk at the moment but lots of fertile symptoms. Didn’t DTD yesterday so hoping to tonight.

Cocobana · 17/01/2019 19:11

Aww @MummyBearBoo your ds sounds gorgeous bless her how cute! Oh yes totally you need to get to that safer phase of pregnancy to feel better I completely understand that. Fingers crossed we all get bfps this month! ✨✨✨✨

Cocobana · 17/01/2019 19:12

dd* sorry should say

Cocobana · 17/01/2019 19:32

How are you @scarletrose18 hope your cold is getting better?

MummyBearBoo · 19/01/2019 10:38

So according to glow my FW starts today no +OPK yet not done today's yet and dunno when ov is due really - so told DH he's mine every evening til next Weekend 😂!! He is off this week too but lots of decorating to do so I know we won't be able to DTD every day and I know they usually say every other day is better! Good luck to those still in xx

Mfbroome · 19/01/2019 16:27

Sorry how long r ur cycles?
X

Mfbroome · 19/01/2019 16:28

@Cocobana did u get your +opk yet?!

Hope everyone is having a nice weekends xxx
I feel strangely relaxed for someone in the early days of a tww lol

Mfbroome · 19/01/2019 16:29

@PastaSauceHoarder hope that bubby is cooking nicely!
@Scarletrose18 any symptoms yet?! X

Scarletrose18 · 19/01/2019 17:30

@mfbroome feeling better today thank you, sorry for late reply to you, was feeling a bit rotton and sorry for myself lol. Dh has it now too so that was date night out the window lol. How are you, how are your opks coming?

@mummyb great that its your fertile week and your dh is around for it. Im sure he didnt complain at you ordering him to dtd all week 😂

@mfbroome helllooo Awk im imagining all sorts of symptoms, im far too hopefull this month so if its a bfn i think it will hit me hard... cant help feeling hopeful. Trying not to google all my imaginary symptoms😂 How are you? Great that you are relaxed.

@pasta How is your new veggie diet coming along? 🙂 You will be so healthy... unless you start craving sweeties lol.

Also pasta, did u eat your brazils in tww?

PastaSauceHoarder · 19/01/2019 17:49

Thanks @Mfbroome, six weeks today. Smile I have a midwife coming over on Wednesday, that might make it feel a little more real!
Eek, you're in your TWW, massive fingers crossed!! 🤞🏻 What date do you think you'll test? Its good that you feel relaxed, I bet that will make it go quicker.

Not craving any sweets @Scarletrose18, but we did have a sneaky KFC just now. I can't remember the last takeaway we had so its definitely justified! Wink
And no actually, I didn't eat any Brazil's! It was during the Christmas period so I kind of just forgot in the flurry of eating chocolate and treats. 😂
Glad you're feeling better! What CD are you now? Smile

Scarletrose18 · 19/01/2019 17:49

I just realised I tagged @mfbroome instead of @cocobana. Sorry lol @coco first message was my reply to you... can we still blame baby brain 1.5 years later 😂

OP posts:
Scarletrose18 · 19/01/2019 17:55

Thats great @pasta! Where I live you dont see anyone until your 12 week scan, I always thought it was a long time to wait, so seeing a midwife at 6 weeks is much better.
Lol. So the brazil theory hasnt really been tested then. Im on cd19 today. So im 4dpo, feel like im about 44 dpo already 🤣

OP posts:
Cocobana · 20/01/2019 10:35

@Mfbroome +opk cd15/16 but I’m going to go with today cd16 as line was the darkest. It’s great you’re feeling relaxed in your TWW and you have such a good chance! ✨✨

@Scarletrose18 oh no hope you’re all feeling so much better? How is you’re weekend going? Sorry I didn’t reply sooner, we’re all super tired because ds has been up, alert and ready to start the day the last two nights at 1/2am and it’s taken 3 hours to get him back to sleep. We’re thinking it’s a developmental leap as I’ve read they have one just before 2. It could be molars as well. +opk today (cd16) I’m going with today for ovulation as despite a good line yesterday today was darker. I’ll be in my tww from tomorrow.

@MummyBearBoo how is your opks doing? Great you have dh all to yourself for DTD, gives you a great chance ✨✨✨👍🏼😃

@pastasaucehoarder how are you today? Gosh 6 weeks, that’s amazing, not long until your private scan. The first MW appt will make it all seem so real, I haven’t taken Brazil nuts this cycle as was nutted out after the fruit and nut mixes over Xmas lol

Scarletrose18 · 20/01/2019 10:59

Yes far better thank you. Judt watching Gruffalo's child with ds, they are such lovely wee films.
Oh no chick, thats awful. Im sure you are running on empty right now, nothing worse than a broken sleep. Yes I bet its a development stage or new teeth or something like you said. Hopefully it doesnt last long!

Ov day! Yaay! Have you managed to dtd with not getting much sleep? You are joining us in the tww then 🙂 Its feeling like a long long wait this cycle for me. Lol.

Sorry didnt tag you @cocobana

MummyBearBoo · 20/01/2019 11:20

Still no +OPK yet but must be due soon more cm than normal sorry if TMI!! Not quite have DH all to myself sharing him with a little daddies girl til 7pm tho she’s at preschool all day Tuesday and Wednesday!! Xx

Cocobana · 20/01/2019 11:22

@Scarletrose18 that film sounds canny, I’ll have to check that out for ds. Aww thank you, it is tough with broken nights but I don’t have to go to work or anything so I can’t complain too much. I’ve told dh to sleep in spare bed tonight so that he gets his sleep for work, I’ll sleep with ds while he’s going through this little phase; hopefully it’ll be short lived.
I’m pleased you’re all feeling much better, that’s good news. Thank you, I feel so relieved it’s ovulation day because I’m looking forward to relaxing in the TWW and not having to be preoccupied with DTD lol. Despite lack of sleep we have managed to DTD which is good but I’m not sure what the lack of sleep will be doing for my chances! Oh well there’s always next cycle ✨✨✨✨✨

Cocobana · 20/01/2019 11:30

@MummyBearBoo haha awww bless, hopefully from 7 you’ll get a chance or if all else fails let her favourite cartoon babysit her close by and try DTD real quick. But as you say Tuesday and Wednesday pre school so you have lots of baby making time then!! Fingers crossed +opk any day now! ✨✨✨✨😃👍🏼

Scarletrose18 · 20/01/2019 12:14

@mummyb lots more ewcm is great. Im sure ov will be any day now! Yes as coco says tv is a great babysitter. Shrek babysat for us dtd quite a few times in our fertile week 😂

Canny? Lol what does that mean?
Have you heard of the Gruffalo? @coco its a great book. Think I like it more than ds 😂 Great that you still got to dtd. Thats great that you are relaxed about it too. Well the fact that you have still ovulated despite being tired is a great sign! Heres hoping that little egg is being fertilised right now 😃
