TTC First Baby Thread 18 Already!

[ValidUser]

Starting new thread - no stats though.

@ValidUser - it is sweet, to be fair!

@MrsH497 - that’s a great idea, we certainly shall! How are you? I hope you’re having a nice weekend!

@MrsEG - thanks for being the voice of reason :) I feel better knowing that!
I’m feeling pretty crampy and AF due tomorrow so I think I’m out but it ain’t over til AF, I guess!!

Morning ladies! Missed a few days of the thread and been trying to catch up, but it moves up so fast!!

@MrsEG your friends and family sound so lovely, so great you have such an amazing support system around you! Enjoy!!

@FlapJackered 'I don't even want to look at his willy' haha! Bless you. It sounds like you've covered yourself and the ovulation symptoms sound positive!! Hope you find the energy to DTD today!

@ELW85 enjoy Harry Potter studios!!

@Bettythecat I agree with MrsEG I didn't have any symptoms until 12dpo! You're still quite early! Fingers crossed for you

@Dollywilde I went to the hair dressers on Friday! My hair was so long it was ridiculous, too much in this heat. Feels so much better now chopped off. I love the head massages they give whilst conditioning your hair 😍😍 Hope you enjoyed! Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

I'm on CD9 today, been temping last few and placed an order for CB digital OPKs.
Both Glow and FF have put fw from 3rd June but I might start testing with cheapie OPKs from tomorrow 🤔

Went to go see Aladdin last night - film was okay but thoroughly enjoyed singing along to the songs! I love Disney and it made me so happy!! Going to have a shopping session with my mum today and enjoy the weather!
Hope you all have a lovely Sunday xx

Morning all

9dpo here, boobs a wee bit sore but nothing to write home about. Also just discovered that my DH has binned my pee pot - so that's stopped me from testing easily! Need to acquire a new one 😂😂

Going for Sunday lunch later with a friend who's 39 weeks pregnant which will be lovely. She's just about the only person I know who didn't just look at a man and get pregnant 😂😂

@Lokicat - morning! I think it’s a good idea to use ICs from tomorrow; apps are just using averages and ovulation is the thing that varies each cycle, so might as well cover your bases!

@LikeTheFruit - lunch sounds lovely! Maybe acquire a new pot whilst you’re out, haha!

@LikeTheFruit I love people like your friend. They make me feel less like I'm malfunctioning. 😂

@MrsEG the injections have been totally fine. Don't mind needles and the side effects have been pretty absent. Scan again tomorrow and hopefully can give the trigger shot then.

Anyone heard from @Delilah7? She must be due soon!

@ValidUser

Hi lovely! Thanks for thinking of me.
12th July I'm due however induction is looking to be happening due to some complications. I'm royally fed up at 33 weeks, and just want him out safely and healthy!! Xxx

This thread is super fast! Seems like there are lots of good weekend plans - hope everyone has fun!

@FlapJackered Willy fatigue is a thing 😝

@LikeTheFruit fingers crossed the boob soreness is a good sign

Think my luteal phase has got longer - am currently 16dpo and just got a BFN. Awaiting AF, last couple of months my LP has been 11 days so I was feeling a bit hopeful of a BFP even though timing with FW wasn't great.

I’m out ladies. AF got me. Bitch.

@Delilah7 a little boy! That's so exciting! ❤️

@ELW85 sorry for AF! X

@ValidUser I forget who knows and who doesn't! Yes a little boy. He will be called Ethan James 💙

@Delilah7 that's beautiful! Congratulations. Bet you can't wait to meet him! X

@ValidUser thank you! Yes I am induction should be 38 weeks possibly so I'm literally 5 weeks off that! Xx

Ah @elw85 I’m sorry :(

Hi everyone,

Been Having a read through, it's crazy how much goes on in a day 🤣

Hope you are all having a fab bank holiday weekend!

Sorry af arrived @ELW85 😕😕

I'm cycle day 14 and had the delicious pineapple core this morning... yak! I struggled to eat it. I don't like pineapple to start with 🤣 worth a shot though!

@dahlia123 that's usually that it's so much longer. Are you sure you ov'd when expected or is there a chance it was later? Sorry if you've already posted about that!

Thanks everyone. I’m gutted, but I’ve also just had Butterbeer ice cream, so I’m trying to cheer myself up!

@MrsEG hope you doing ok?
Question about the pineapple. Was it the core for 5 days before o and including o day then 2/3 Brazil nuts for the luteal phase? Sorry I can't remember!

Sorry about af arriving ELW85

I'm 7 DPO and trying my best not to play the symptom spotting game. Have slightly sore boobs, random twinges of pain in the general womb area and keep crying at things (a song, my tea went cold, I was too fat to fit into the biggest pair of jeans in Mango).

DP and I went for a super long walk yesterday and I am exhausted, so the "symptoms" are probably caused by that.

I very uncharacteristically wish I was working tomorrow, I have far too much time on my hands when I feel like this. Had to fight urge to POAS.

LikeTheFruit I use the glass ramekins you get with gü... We eat far too many of those explains the jeans issue and there's always a jar somewhere. It's a wide top which makes things easier in terms of precision

@Delilah7 oh my god that's such a cute name, as if you're only 5 weeks off!! That's flown by - you'll have your little boy with you very soon eeeek! Xx

@ELW85 sorry AF turned up 😩 xx

@FlapJackered I think so, low motility and morphology and 'okay' count but the GP was so blasé that he just pissed me off 😂 waiting for DHs next appointment to see. How's your temp today? X

@ValidUser Very best of luck with the scan tomorrow!!

@ELW85 Ah So sorry Hun, it’s always horrible when she rocks up. Get yourself some chocolate frogs!

@LokiCat I actually don’t want to see new Aladdin as I love the original so much! I don’t want it ruined for me! Maybe I’ll just stay home and watch the old one :)

@Delilah7 So excited for you now lovely, all the sickness and awfulness will all be over in a few weeks and it will all have been so worth it!

@Lottiepink I did a few slices of pineapple with the core just on the day of Ov, then from 1-10DPO, 2-3 Brazil nuts a day!! I don’t know why those days and that many specifically haha!

@PaintingOwls I could have written that post! I've had exactly the same "symptoms" and am 8 DPO. Really tired the last few days but have slept poorly and yesterday went for a run then spent two hours in the garden clearing it so that's probably why 😂🙄. Just had a cry about TTC which I never do either but probably a sure sign af is on her way. When is af due for you?

Love that you use the gu ramekins for your piss pot- at least those ruddy things are useful for something I've got what seems like hundreds of them!

@Lottiepink it's v strange.

I didn't use OPKs this month but did BBT. Looking at my chart I don't think it can have been later - but have attached my charts in case anyone sees another point where it could have happened.

Ava says ovulation was 10 May (cd 16) which matches with ewcm.

I put the BBT data from Ava into FF to cross reference, and that says ovulation was on cd 13, which would make me 19dpo and on CD 32.

BBT went up again today too. Did Frer with FMU and SMU and both were white BFN. V odd.

Sorry to hear that @ELW85

Lovely name @Delilah7
