Sorry if I missed anyone, and happy baby-making!

@MrsAW2018 Thank you much and thank you for the reassurance. Will definately not drink again now. @starkid I got home this afternoon unfortunately and being with the girls I couldn't buy anything whilst I was away (plus don't like the thought of tempting fate) so I'm thinking of maybe going out to buy a "Congratulations" card and writing him a nice message for when he gets home from work tonight. Maybe throw in something jokey about his sperm meeting my egg. Haha I won't be able to sleep on it without telling him. Unless I see if I can get a babygrow tonight. Not sure. Still can't believe it.

@dahlia123 Aww thank you so much and welcome to the board. These ladies are the best.

@Lottiepink Thank you so much. I really didn't think I would. Haha. I know what a wonderful Friday. Just have to hope and pray for a sticky bean 💛

@PinkFizz19 congratulations! 🎉

@PinkFizz19 congratulations!!! How lovely. I thought you would get ure BFP from reading ure recent posts.

AF has arrived .... 2 days early 😭😭😭 im gutted.

@PinkFizz19 omg huge congratulations!!!! Wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.

@AysLon yes seven seas was the one I was thinking of but couldn’t remember the name 😂 how strange that they are set up like the pill!

@smitch82 it’s hard not to hope isn’t it! Fx for you

@starkid I'm 32 if you want to add that to the list :)

It's nice to see people get their positive results! How long are people TTC for before getting a positive result?

@flapjackered fingers crossed for you hope you get your positive soon x

@pinkfizz19 massive congrats xx

@hannah192 sorry you got negative fingers crossed it happens soon x

@starkid and I'm 35 😄

@Pinksunset1 thank you x

@PinkFizz19 I knew it!!! Massive congrats xx

@FlapJackered sorry you're feeling shitty 😩 I would've had my 12 week scan by now and planned to tell both families on Mother's Day so I can completely relate ☹️ I hope you enjoy your birthday tomorrow, sorry it's such shit timing xxxx

@PinkFizz19 oooh amazing,
massive congratulations!! Oh so happy for you! Bean won't have been affected by Disney at all, don't worry.

Hi ladies! Got back from our holiday this week which was a nice break away from thinking about TTC and my mc.
Felt quite a bit of EWCM today so decided to use an OPK which turned out positive (!!) and now I'm obsessing over TTC again 🙈 unfortunately DH is away until Sunday.. 😩 I've read that it's recommended to wait for a period after a mc before TTC again, but then read others that say it's fine, anyone know? Seeing GP next Friday so will probably ask her some questions!

@starkid sorry, can I be added back on the list please? I'm 28, cycle 5.

@PeacockingAbout @PinkFizz19 and anyone else huge congratulations for your bfp! Wishing you a very happy and healthy pregnancy ❤️

@PinkFizz19 congratulations! Have you told your DH yet?
I'm 7dpo today and had a few slight symptoms but nothing major. Hearing you say you've not had any is making me more positive 🙂 fingers crossed!!!! X

CD14 still a 0 on the OPD, eventhough last night I swear I felt much hotter than usual in bed, too hot to sleep. I have no idea what I going on.

@PinkFizz19, congratulations!! 🙂🎉

@flapjackered, happy birthday sweet! Hope you get pampered and have a lovely weekend xx 🎂🎈

Well ladies, I finally got a bfn, almost 3 weeks after my d&c. Maaan it feels weird being even a bit happy to see a negative, but at least it means everything is going how it should after the mc. Hopefully I'll get my af in a couple of weeks so we can start trying again. My cb opks are in the draw, waiting! Told dh about my 'safely pregnant for Christmas' dream and he seemed quite on board with going along with that aim.

I'm going shopping with my mum today which will be nice, then off to see the hairy bikers tonight with soon to be sis in law 🙂

What's everyone doing this weekend? Anyone testing?? Xxx

Happy birthday @FlapJackered xxx

@Fivebyfive2 I'm glad you have your BFN - are you going to try even before AF? I've heard for some people they're more fertile straight after a mc? Sorry if that's morbid to read, just wondered if you're waiting until after AF or not xx

Well ladies I think I had the smallest dot of spotting last night, which means normal spotting should be here today, and AF tomorrow. Perfect timing.

@cupcakesandglitter, we're gonna wait for af before trying. We did discuss going for it straight away, but decided to give my body a few weeks to adjust after the op and everything. Weirdly I think I felt some ovulation signs last weekend / earlier in the week, but could be wrong. Although it does kind of tie in with d&c being cycle day 1 and af hopefully being due around 11th April. We'll just wait and see what happens in the next few weeks! I'm hoping trying straight after my first af may mean I could still be a little more fertile than usual?! Fingers crossed! Xxx

Happy birthday @FlapJackered

@Fivebyfive2 that makes sense that you would be pleased in a way. Sounds like you have a lovely day planned. Really hope you get a BFP next cycle.

@cupcakesandglitter no to the spotting. Not good timing. I hope you have a nice weekend planned xx

And that's me slowly heading into cycle4!

Grr. Spotting arrived today and a massive temp drop!

Just waiting to officially start next cycle now! Yayyy... 😂

@Jessikka that's rubbish. I hope her visit is brief. ❤️

I'm so grateful to have you ladies to talk about the ins and outs of TTC. It's such a mindfuck.

E.g yesterday when I was panicking about my raspberry tea delaying O

1. as a rule, I'm not a worrier so this is annoying I'm overthinking TTC
2. it's FAR more likely my cycle is messed up by my very erratic shift pattern the last 3 weeks... when did I become so illogical 😂

@Jessikka sorry AF showed up, it's rarely welcome.

@fivebyfive2 great news, your body is finally moving on.

@FlapJackered happy birthday! Here's some internet chocolate 🍫!

@FlapJackered happy birthday 🥳

@Jessikka 😕😕 sorry af has arrived!

@thosethreewords I know after ttc for a while and not being a part of any groups, it's so lovely to speak to people on here and get opinions and to speak to people in the same boat 😊

After a late ov last month cd 20, compared to my usual between cd 15-17, and 10 days of opk's (up to 3 a day) 🙈😂
On cd21 I've finally got a positive one... woohoo 🤣🤣🤣 so ov is predicted to be Monday!
Still a bit concerned why I've all of a sudden started ov late... 😕

Thank you lovely ladies for your birthday messages! We have just been for a 6 mile walk in the sunshine ☀️ and now getting the champagne on ice! 🥂

Ahh @PinkFizz19 congratulations!!! 🎉🎉🎉 I knew it! You must be over the moon!

@Lottiepink well done for persevering! It is really frustrating when ov is delayed isn't it.
Now get 🐎!

@Fivebyfive2 it's such a relief isn't it getting the bfn, it's almost like you can close the door on the whole sorry affair and look forward to trying again. That is great your DH is on board with your plan! 🤞🏻 it happens soon for both of us!

@thosethreewords @orangeloo @Pinksunset1 @LokiCat Thank you so much. Still can't believe it 😘

@BostonFern Thank you very much 😘 how are you feeling?

@Hannah192 Thank you so much 😘 Sorry to hear AF got to you. Early too...how rude! Will keep everything crossed for you that next month is your month.

@Chembecky This was our 4th cycle and I'm 33 if that helps 😊

@cupcakesandglitter Thank you so much 😘 I didn't. Haha. I was building myself up for BFN and AF to show. Still can't believe it.

@PeacockingAbout Aww thank you very much. I really hope so 😘 we must have very similar due dates. My LMP was 28/02 and with a 27 day cycle I've got an estimate of 4th December. 1 app is giving me 5th December but I think that's based on a 28 day cycle. Have you rang the doctors yet? I'm ringing first thing Monday to confirm the next steps. Might feel more real then 😊

@BabyO1988 Thank you so much 😘 I told him last night. I bought a card with different emojis on the front n wrote a nice long message about me bringing him an extra special gift home from Paris due to his sperms meeting my egg. Haha. He didn't read anymore before turning to look at me and was like, seriously?! He was so shocked and excited. He said he expected it the past few months but because nothing had happened he expected it to take a while. We did a CB digital together this morning which confirmed I'm 1-2 weeks. Only symptom I'd say I had was bit light headed/dizzy now and then and my missed period. With being away though and having the party to look forward too last Friday it took my mind off symptom spotting so there may have been the tiredness etc and I've put it down to being busy and out all day.

@Fivebyfive2 Thank you so much 😘 sending you best wishes and hope you're having a lovely Saturday. Your plans sound fun.

@Jessikka sorry to hear AF got you 😘 will keep everything crossed for you that next month is your month.

@FlapJackered Happy Birthday!! Sounds like a wonderful day ending it with champagne. Thank you so much we are 😘

Does anyone mind if i still linger here? You've all been so supportive i don't want to leave 😊😘 Also thought I'd share ladies, only thing I did differently this month was I had a piece of fresh pineapple first thing every morning (including the core!) from AF to O. Ate it on an empty stomach as I read that fresh pineapple core was good for Ovulation and the benefits are different on an empty stomach? Then from my positive OPK to 10dpo I had 3 Brazil Nuts every night as I'd read they're good for implantation. Might have been nonsense but it was good enough for me to try 😊

@PinkFizz19 I'm very tired, awake at 2am most mornings, and starting to feel nauseous- nervous too!
