@ValidUser I can only imagine how anxious you feel, any surgery is anxiety inducing, but when it's linked to TTC it must be even more so. My only experiences of surgery meant I was laid up in bed for six weeks after each one. My only advice for the recovery period is to find some good box sets, books and something like colouring in or dot to dots to pass the time!

@Crossfitgirl thanks I'll try not to stress. I hope your doing well. So happy for you! Your right you never know other people's struggles do you. We went to mothercare yesterday to get some bits for my cousins baby who is a few days over due! So so many gorgeous bits!

On the plus side I got all my painting done yesterday. Today's cleaning day and the house is looking significantly better then it did yesterday. Every cloud!

Just popped on to have a quick read - congrats @Random2468 xx

@Crossfitgirl glad to hear everything is going okay and you've done your announcement, how cute ❤️

@ValidUser how're you feeling about it? Xx

@FlapJackered hope your sister takes it well, I think telling her before hand is a good idea, give her some time to process it xx

@KatBeCool how's the clomid? X

Hope everyone is doing well ❤️

Yes I am in the wonderful TWW!! I'm in CD15 and around 3 DPO. Let's pray these weeks pass easy. Weekends are fine for me, during the week is when I get google mad @BostonFern @KittieKath

Hope everyone is doing good and enjoying their weekend x

I'm the opposite @DayDreamer1707 I'm ok in the week, but the weekends are when I start to overthink things!

@thumper59 glad to hear you are happier with the house. I'm sitting on the sofa looking at all the housework that needs doing and trying to summon up the energy to get on with it. I've already done three loads of laundry, put the food shop away and fed the cats. Think I'm going to use half term to have a massive spring clean!

@crossfitgirl thanks chick, started OPKing yesterday so will keep it up til it gets positive then fades again!

TMI coming up... sometimes I have such an issue with CM and last night OH couldn’t get it in I was so dry. So we tried preseed for the first time and OMG game changer 🙈😂😂 xx

@Luisastravino83 I’ve used them a couple of times, always went from nothing to static smiley never had the flashing one x

@KatBeCool well it shows, you are clearly in the right job! I'm very grateful for your research.

@thumper59 - did you input that bleed you had as spotting, or as a period? If you inputted it as a period, it might have got
confused and assumed you must have already ovulated?

Hope the paiign frenzy has gonew well!!

I definaly notci it more (*baby on board badges onthe tube anbd the like) - but als, if I'm in hte

@starkid sorry to hear that there might be mechanical

Thanks @cupcakesandglitter, we told all our friends and family in person first then fb was for the rest hehe hope you're keeping well?
@mrsmcntobe lube is the best 😂
@validuser good luck for the surgery, when's the date? I'll be thinking of you. Are you doing anything to help stay relaxed in the lead up?
The weeks seem to be going quite fast since the scan, feeling a loooottt better now though and going back to crossfit this week hopefully. Woo hoo!

So happy for you @Crossfitgirl ❤️ I'm okay thanks, we're not TTC anymore so I've just been redecorating the house and doing stuff for me right now. AF has only just finished so next week I'll be hitting the gym properly to shift all this weight xx

Jeeeeyzuz I had NOT finished editing that post!

Hope the painting frenzy has gone well and you're pleasantly relaxing today

I definitely notice pregnant women more (baby on board badges on the tube and the like) - but also, if I'm in the lifestage to get pregnant, makes sense most of by friends are!

@Lemonysherbet I am similarly pleased with my own first OPK attempt! the actual result was negative, but manged to avoid a mess.

@starkid sorry to hear that there might be medical issues, but hopefully the soy will help. Are you still feeling like superwoman?

@MrsMcNtobe is it worth it then? I was looking into getting some pre-seed, but it is really quite expensive!

CD 11 for me today, and I'm feeling weirdly achy, like i have done a lot of exercise (I have NOT!) so not sure what is going on there . Entered my FW on Ovia, faint line on my OPK, so starting to get interesting i suppose!

@peacockingabout defo worth it! I’d been wanting to buy it but it was like £18 then I saw it in Morrisons for £15 so I just picked it up there 😂 x

@BostonFern I've just finished a big clean got the last load of washing on. Just eating last nights left overs 😂. Got a beef joint in the slow cooker for tea. Not getting dressed or putting makeup on today going to get the last few jobs sorted and chill on the sofa for the afternoon.

@PeacockingAbout no I put it as spotting. Once I uploaded the pic of the negative OPK to it ( it wasn't clue I was using it was glow) it just went a bit mad! Think I'm going to stick to ovia and ignore what it's telling me about my FW really until I get a positive OPK and I'll go from there, I'll just keep inputting what symptoms I can and aiming to BD every other day and I'll input when I ovulate and go from there

Argh I wasn't done!! Yeah the painting went well Thankyou feeling much happier with it all. Babies are everywhere! I have 2 baby showers next month that I know of 😫

Yay I'm not broken! This is progress from yesterday! Should I do one later on tonight too or wait until tomorrow?

Well, I cracked and did a FRER (AF due on Thursday) and got a BFN.

@thumper59 that OPK is looking good. I'd do another one around 6pm if it were me.
@AngeloMysterioso it's still early days (but I know the temptation- did it myself last cycle!).

@AngeloMysterioso it's still early! Don't rule yourself out yet.

@BostonFern ooo I will do, I think I've maybe before today used to diluted wee as well 😬 I'll do one around 6 and aim to BD tonight. 🎉🎉

@thumper59 I normally do mine when I get in from work- being a teacher I don't get time to drink enough or go to the toilet 😂

@BostonFern oh dear 😂 yeah I do mine after work usually too mon-fri but yesterday and today I did them around this time, but my wee was miles more diluted yesterday, see what 6pm brings! We BD Friday, tonight and I'll aim for Tuesday too and Keep checking these pesky OPKs!

@FlapJackered Haha I know! Hoping its a lucky sign for us. Aww, I'm sure however you tell her she'll appreciate you being so kind and thoughtful. I bet your parents will be super excited. There are so many Pinterest worthy ways to announce (not that I've been planning 🙄) but I bet that when it happens for real you just want to shout it out 

@thumper59 Sounds like you've been super busy with your house, I'm in awe of your productivity haha. And good news that your OPK is looking a bit darker

@AngeloMysterioso Sorry to see you got a BFN. FX a line appears for you soon.

I've created a new thread as this one is really close to being full, hope that's okay and I haven't just stood on anyone's toes :)

Thanks for bringing me along!

I'm on 10dpo today and feeling very nauseous and dizzy since yesterday. Also lots of Cm has me rather uncomfortable half way around Ikea 😂😳

Ive been having a really full feeling in my uterus and am having sight tingle sensations so just waiting to see if AF arrives in 5days or so.

Temps are high but slowly dropping down so will have to wait and see. 🤷🏼‍♀️

How is everyone's Sunday x

@TrashKitten10 Is there a link for the new thread?
