@Mfbroome I think mine’s just a result of my healthy eating this week 🤣 lol I think I’ve had an overload of veg! I’m so happy you got your bfp and I bet your little ones will be super excited when they find out. I don’t think we’re doing too badly at all on this thread with you and @pasta both bfp and it hasn’t take very long either. @scarletrose18 and @mummybearboo our odds are good ladies ✨✨✨😃✨✨✨

Cocobana · 27/01/2019 20:57

@Scarletrose18 I was just saying to @mfbroome that I think it’s probably just gas 🤣 I’ve eaten a lot healthier this week and been having lots of healthy salads and stir fries, soups etc so it’s too much of a coincidence lol. It’ll probably also be hunger pangs I bet...oh well haha. Thanks we had a good day and ds burnt off so much energy running about. Did you manage your relaxing day today? Oh I’m so pleased your ds slept better; I hope he is fully better very soon. Thanks for letting me know, I don’t think I have any of the free tests left and have used them over the last two cycles. I think I was keeping the others and thinking oh I’ll just use up the free ones. Have you tried one of the 10 miu ones just incase? No AF still gives you a good chance and I’m not giving up hope yet for you @scarlet ✨✨✨✨

Mfbroome · 27/01/2019 20:59

@Cocobana I feel like I haven't got the bfp unTIL I see that darker line 😩
Im too paranoid that it's gonna go away 🙈 I can't stop googling. I'm no longer relaxed lll

Cocobana · 27/01/2019 21:12

Oh no @Mfbroome try not to worry as I’m sure your line will get darker. The fact there is a line there shows HCG is present. I think it doubles every 48 hours so it’ll get stronger every day. I hope you manage to get a good nights sleep tonight and then retest first thing and hopefully it’ll put your mind at rest ✨✨✨👍🏼😃

Mfbroome · 27/01/2019 21:21

I don't mean to sound ungrateful for the little line 🤣 but you know when ur just thinking of all the possibilities lol 🙈 but hey it is what it is there's nothing I can do - just have to wait xxx
Good on u for healthy eating! I'm good at healthy eating 60% of my day but the other 40% consists of biscuits and chocolate at the minute 😂😭🤗😍

Scarletrose18 · 27/01/2019 22:09

Just gas from the veg, that made me laugh
@coco 😂😂
Yes i had been taking one of each twice a day 🤣😂🙈🙊 I have had period cramps so AF is coming. Im feeling ok about it now, just looking at it as a fresh cycle 😊
We stayed in but I spent alot of the day chasing him around wiping his nose 😳 lol

@mfbroome stay positive; im sure the line will darken chick! Its kind of hard to believe it at first isnt it.. im sure tomorrow mornings test will be darker and again the next day. Iv been eating 100% bad lol. Well I did have some salad with my pizza this weekend if that counts 😂😂

Sorry girls had DD's Peppe Pig themed party yesterday - total chaos 14 kids and 18 grown ups in our (not massive) house - thank god we opened up our kitchen to give us a breakfast bar and make it more open plan!! I'm starting my TWW coz of my stupidly unpredictable cycle though ov on 1st cycle was CD22, 2nd CD26 and this one CD25 so they're all around the same time but think I need to do OPKs so I know when I'm ovulating!
Exciting @Mfbroome - let us know how you get on today fingers crossed for you!
According to glow a high chance is just over 27% so about 1 in 4 so 2nd cycle is really early @Scarletrose18
@Cocobana -well done on the healthy eating my weight loss plateaued this week I know it was bound to happen at some point so need to get back on it this week had a bad day yesterday eating party food!! I'm in healthy range BMI still tho so trying not to stress!
@Charl28 -hope you get good news and get an appt before Wednesday!
@PastaSauceHoarder -not long til your scan!!
My DD started Tap this week so now does that and ballet just before her ballet lesson with the same teacher!!

I had a really vivid dream last night that I got a BFP and I had to remind myself this morning that it'd be way too early coz the dream seemed really real! Xx

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 09:50

@Mfbroome let us know how you get on this morning when you test. Haha I know what you mean I’ve had to cut the biscuit with my cup of tea out as I was developing a little calorific habit there 🤣

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 09:51

biscuits that was meant to say as there was certainly more than one lol

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 09:54

Aww @Scarletrose18 how is ds today? I hope his cold his better, it must have been hard for you while he wasn’t well. Sorry about your cramps, I reckon that will be me too this time on Saturday. Maybe you’re meant to get your BFP on your third cycle, I bet you’ll ditch the opks, relax and it’ll happen when you’re not even thinking about it. Think of it as your ds being one month older for his little sibling giving you more precious time with him and meaning he’ll be a older and wiser big brother. That’s what I’m telling myself about ds each cycle it doesn’t happen ✨✨✨✨

PastaSauceHoarder · 28/01/2019 09:55

Haha @Cocobana, that made me laugh. 😂 A biscuit sounds good right now!

How are you? Smile Any symptoms at all?

Ah @MummyBearBoo, a Peppa Pig birthday party would be my DDs dream come true - hats off to you for dealing with all those people in your house!! Can't have been easy! 😨
Yay for starting the TWW! 🎉

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 10:00

@MummyBearBoo that sounds chaotic lol but super fun for all the dc. Aww hope your dd had a blast. Thanks I was doing bits and pieces before but still slipping up and having snacks sweet stuff and biscuits etc so I’ve cut it entirely out now. I feel I need to be strict when it comes to sweet stuff and to just not have it. I want to lose a few pounds and feel better so I’m sticking at it. Aww what date is your af due? That just be hard for you having a longer cycle. I hope your TWW goes as fast as possible, it sounds like you’re def keeping busy after the party and everything.

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 10:02

Haha @PastaSauceHoarder oh god I know my cup of tea feels naked without a biscuit and it just isn’t right! Even ds is looking for his piece of biscuit snapped off he’s not impressed 🤣
How are you feeling today? Gosh it’s flying are you almost 8 weeks now? It’s getting excited @pasta 👍🏼😃✨✨✨✨✨

PastaSauceHoarder · 28/01/2019 10:59

I'm okay thanks @Cocobana, I feel really sick now though. Walkers ready salted crisps are my saviours this morning!!

Yes I'm 7+2 today, its my birthday on Sunday and I know my parents are giving me money so I'll use that to book my private scan. Smile Just can't wait to get to that point, I'm so worried all the time.

Mfbroome · 28/01/2019 11:00

Morning gals, ur right it is marginally darker today but not much, I bought a first response I will do tomorrow morning and see. I was reading that so many fail at this early stage? How did u all feel finding out before AF was due? I always found out a week after a missed AF before so I'm new to this dpo thing..?

@Scarletrose18 pizza and salad is technically balance so sounds like your doing a bloody good job Babes!
How are yours cramps? Have they eased off have u tested again?

@Cocobana how are u feeling today?

@MummyBearBoo oh I love a kids party! It's such fun :) I'm currently planning my dd one for the summer 👏🏼
Does your little one love peppa pig then?! Well I guess what 3 year old doesn't! My ds is hypnotised when it's on 😂😂😂

Mfbroome · 28/01/2019 11:25

@PastaSauceHoarder looking at your test picture is making me feel hopeful! When did it feel real?!!

MummyBearBoo · 28/01/2019 11:27

@Cocobana I think my AF is due on 9th Feb am/ paw patrol and peppa pig are her absolute favs!! She's got the toys, books clothes and watches it on TV when I let her!! She loved it she loves seeing all her friends and cousins!! I need to take down all the peppa pig bunting and happy birthday signs! We did loads of food and there's not much left over - we've got tons of jelly left coz we didn't get to the jelly bit as everyone filled up on cupcakes and doughnuts along with chocolate orange cheesecake! I had 1 doughnut! Our living room carpet is 3 days old and all the kids managed to not spill anything on it which my dad pointed out before he managed to spill his tea on it by accident!! He totally jinxed it!
Sounding good @Mfbroome xx

PastaSauceHoarder · 28/01/2019 11:29

When the sickness kicked in, @Mfbroome. 😂 Feeling very pregnant the last few days.

I'm going to reach for a third packet of crisps because sod it, I might hate them tomorrow.

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 11:37

@pastasaucehoarder oh no hope your sickness alleviates soon. Mini cheddars were my saviours during that stage with ds. I literally had to stash them next to my bed and eat them in early hours when felt sick. I also had to eat salt and vinegar Pringles and carry the container around in my handbag! It’s a funny feeling isn’t it? There’s no other time where you feel sick but have to eat as a matter of urgency. It’ll be tough for you looking after your ds when feeling like that, I hope you have some help and support.
It’s not long at all until your private scan, I hope you feel better on your birthday and have a lovely day x

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 11:38

dd*

Mfbroome · 28/01/2019 11:39

🤣🤣🤣 @PastaSauceHoarder the beauty of sickness u can eat whatever u want 👍🏼
Oh god haha!
What dpo did u think that u defo were? Was it after missed AF?

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 11:40

Aww @Mfbroome I’m sure that line will darker every day. You haven’t missed your AF yet so fact it’s even showing this early is a fantastic sign! You’ll soon be like @pasta and looking forward to your scan x

Cocobana · 28/01/2019 11:47

@MummyBearBoo you’re due af one week after me. I’m really hoping for a BFP for you this month, you deserve it so much. Ds loves paw patrol too, he’s obsessed. We’ve just bought him all the little paw patrol cars and a multi storey road thing for his 2nd birthday next month. Aww your dd’s party sounds amazing, that’s lovely. It’s nice to have a big family and I bet your dd loves playing with her cousins. Ds doesn’t have any cousins bless him but does have some little friends at least. Oh no I would have been watching the carpet like a hawk and would have been tempted to put that clear plastic all over you used for decorating 🤣 haha that’s something my dad would do, typical!

Mfbroome · 28/01/2019 11:53

@MummyBearBoo that is funny about ur dad, that's defo something I would do 😂😂 be shouting at the kids to watch what they r doing and spill my drink lol. What are u up to today? Tidying?

@Cocobana oh thanks luv I hope so!maybe I need to chill a bit.
it's amazing how ur constantly just searching for answers during this ttc journey lol.
How is ur ds today? Paw patrol is a hit in our house and pj masks 🙈 I'm guilty of always having the tele on lol

PastaSauceHoarder · 28/01/2019 11:56

I got my BFP 11DPO, three days before AF was due @Mfbroome. Smile The fact that your test is darker today is a great sign!! Means that the hormone levels are rising. 🤞🏻

Thank you, @Cocobana. 💛 You're so right, its like being starving hungry and really sick at the same time isn't it!! What was your morning sickness like with your DS, did you throw up a lot or was it more like bad nausea?

Awh its his birthday next month, I bet thats gone so quickly! I'm already planning DDs 2nd birthday and thats not until June. 😂 Sounds like he'll love that Paw Patrol toy, DD is obsessed with dogs so she loves it.

Ahh your poor carpet, @MummyBearBoo!! Is it easily cleanable?
That sounds like one yummy spread at the party! Grin
