Hi all, thought as it's Bank Holiday and thread 15 was 900 plus I'd start a new one, hope that's OK??

Copying tags from when @starkid updated them all the other day.

Hope this works as I've not created a thread before!!

@Keyboard91 sorry for the BFN, hopefully it will change to a BFP! Also you're so lucky you can get a doctors appointment so quickly! I have to wait 2-3 weeks at mine!

@cupcakesandglitter sorry AF is on the way, take care of yourself and hope the little break does you good! Xx

Tropicana1 · 30/04/2019 08:13

Damn my stubby little thumbs always posting too soon!

@MrsEG haha well done for forcing down the pineapple core! If you get pregnant this month you know we'll all be doing the same next month 😂

AF due tomorrow and I'm starting to get my usual early cramping and lower backache so probably not going to test now unless I'm late

MrsEG · 30/04/2019 08:15

@Fivebyfive2 @LokiCat I bloody well hope so! Can’t decide whether to DTD tonight or not too - done 4 nights on the trot now, surely that’s enough? Poor DH looked drained last night (literally and figuratively!!) @Fivebyfive2 Enjoy Wales! We did the GoT tour in belfast - definitely pretended I was in a scene the whole time!

@KatBeCool Ooh what’s your theory? I have no idea what’s going to happen next!

@Dollywilde TTC is an emotional rollercoaster and there’s no way to be prepared for it at all. I was such a normal rational woman this time last year!!

@Keyboard91 it’s definitely best to get it checked - as you say, chances are it’s absolutely nothing (none of mine were painful either, which is a good sign!) but always best to know for sure. Sorry about the BFN but it’s early days yet.

MrsEG · 30/04/2019 08:18

@Tropicana1 Ha I know, I’ll literally try anything at this stage! DH was watching me like WHAT are you doing?! Although some sources say that all it will probably do is give me the 💩 Will keep everything crossed that AF stays well away for you!

Keyboard91 · 30/04/2019 08:23

@Tropicana1 it’s normally that but I have a neurological condition so when I ask for an urgent appointment they have to give me one so I’ll make use of that as don’t do it very often

LikeTheFruit · 30/04/2019 09:29

Morning all

Well AF is well and truly here. I've just spent half hour on toilet floor at work after having to run off to vomit and nearly fainting. Sat with all my clothes off except underwear as hot flush took hold. I haven't had as bad period pain since before I went on pill 10 years ago.
Hoping this is a sign of maybe cycles being very healthy and thus ready to be impregnated! 😂😂

starkid · 30/04/2019 09:33

Hi everyone (GoT was sooo good last night, amiright?? Nearly cried 😂)

So I've got my docs appointment Friday, and I'm wondering if I should be taking anything with me e.g. some kind of notes? I took a photo of the back of both our vitamins in case the doctor asks what specific supplements we're taking, but not sure what else they'll ask that I should have answers to on hand...?

LokiCat · 30/04/2019 12:24

@Dollywilde it is a very emotional journey. When AF has turned up previously I'm just counting down the days till my fertility week is round again. I'm glad you're feeling better today and I hope the period pain subsides!

@Keyboard91 sorry for your BFN! Hopefully it turns into a BFP soon. I hope everything goes okay at the appointment tomorrow! Better to be safe and get things checked out.

@MrsEG well done for four days! DH would be complaining about being tired by now! I'm sure it should be enough (but never hurts to DTD if the energy is there 👀) - fingers crossed you've caught the ovulation!

@Tropicana1 I hope AF stays away!

@LikeTheFruit Oh bless you, I hope you're okay! Sorry AF turned up and I hope the pain passes soon. ❤️

@starkid I hope you're appointment goes well on Friday. I'm not sure what's notes would be useful, but I wanted to mention that I sometimes find it useful to write down questions I have in mind. As I always forgot what I wanted to ask once I'm at the actual appointment!

Going to cinema tonight to watch endgame finally! Probably grab dinner beforehand. Make full use of Meerkat 2 for 1 Movies and Meals! 😂

LikeTheFruit · 30/04/2019 13:19

Thanks @LokiCat A couple of neurogenic plus and paracetamol and I'm grand now. Need to remember to take them before I leave for work next time!

Fivebyfive2 · 30/04/2019 15:57

@MrsEG, omg we did the GOT tour in Belfast a couple of year ago, it was fab!! We dressed up and had fake sword fights on the beach!! And saw the cave where the Smoke Baby was born!! Xx

OP posts:
MrsEG · 30/04/2019 17:50

@LikeTheFruit That sounds awful! I hope you’re feeling a lot better now. Hot water bottle and chocolate with your feet up I hope!

@starkid I’m not sure what the Dr will ask to be honest, maybe take them with you just in case (like you say, just take pics of them etc)? Really hope you get some answers and help from them soon!

@LokiCat Ahh enjoy Endgame it’s soo good!

@Fivebyfive2 Ha I love it!! It was bloody freezing when we went I was nearly blown off Giants Causeway!! Worth it though!

1DPO.... does the TWW always go this slow?!! Haha. Have hidden my FRERs, all with DH so I actually don’t know where they are. Time to while the time away!

MrsH497 · 30/04/2019 18:21

Ladies please tell me you can see this

Fivebyfive2 · 30/04/2019 18:27

@MrsH47, yes I think so?! Xx

OP posts:
Chembecky · 30/04/2019 18:46

@MrsH497 that definitely looks positive!

Lottiepink · 30/04/2019 19:01

@MrsH497 yes definitely 😊 good line on an ic too! 😊

MrsH497 · 30/04/2019 19:03

Thanks ladies I'm in complete shock it was the smallest wee as well lol!! 2 days late as well

MrsEG · 30/04/2019 19:05

@MrsH497 Yes I definitely see it!! And if you’re 2 days late too I think that confirms it!!

FlapJackered · 30/04/2019 19:48

@MrsH497 congratulations!!! You must be so happy! That is a good line too! 🎉🎉🎉

FlapJackered · 30/04/2019 19:52

@MrsEG tell me about it! I am 6dpo and I feel like I should be poas now!

@LikeTheFruit poor you, that sounds horrible! I hope you're ok?

LikeTheFruit · 30/04/2019 19:55

@FlapJackered thank you, much much better now! Not felt that bad in a long time.

@MrsEG thank you! Hot choc is always a good shout ☺️

@MrsH497 huge huge congratulations!! Did you feel any different in your TWW this month. Wishing you the very best for the next 9 months!!

cupcakesandglitter · 30/04/2019 19:56

Oh my god massive congratulations @MrsH497 xxxxxxx

Tropicana1 · 30/04/2019 19:57

@MrsH497 congratulations!! Definitely a line! Woo!

MrsH497 · 30/04/2019 20:05

Thank you so much ladies. Can I stick around a bit longer?
I'm crying and just done a frer squeezing another wee out.
Is it normal to feel sickly and crampy?

I've had tender boobs and awful wind!! Blushbut nothing massively different my OPKs ran out so had no idea when I ovulated didn't use pressed nothing!! Xx

TTC First Baby - Thread 16!!
MrsEG · 30/04/2019 20:08

@MrsH497 I never felt sick at all but cramps yes, sore boobs (especially nipples!) and wind too but I was burping constantly!! All literally in the day or two before I got my BFP, nothing any earlier. Congratulations!!! Wonderful news!

ValidUser · 30/04/2019 20:14

@MrsH497 CONGRATULATIONS!!!

@cupcakesandglitter thinking of you. X
