TTC First Baby Thread 18 Already!

[ValidUser]

Starting new thread - no stats though.

@Larrydavid oh have an amazing time in New York! I desperately want to go back, loved it there. Fingers crossed AF doesn't show up and you have positive news when you get back!

@MrsEG great news about the consultant! Hopefully this will be the start of getting some answers soon. The fundraiser idea sounds lovely, how great that you were able to raise so much - you have some wonderful friends!
Have you got any plans for your birthday?

@Tashdreams that sounds promising, hopefully AF is starting to show up!

@Fivebyfive2 wow 8 weeks already! I have everything crossed for you that everything will be okay. I hope all goes well at your booking in appt xx

Got home later than usual tonight. DH had dinner ready on the table and a beautiful bouquet of roses 😍 little things like this make me just keep falling in love all over again.

I hope you ladies have a lovely evening xx

@MrsH497 Oh Hun, try not to let it upset you (easier said than done I know) - so pleased to hear you are otherwise feeling better!

@ELW85 I know, I’m so pleased. I’ll have initial tests done on the day and get my results within an hour - I am absolutely over the moon about it. £275 too for the appointment which I didn’t think was too ludicrous at all!

@LokiCat My friends have been unbelievable throughout it all - were all having a party this weekend too as bucket list item to get wasted with all the girls needs to be done ASAP as of COURSE I’ll be preggo very soon ha! Stocked up on vino this evening :) No birthday plans other than me and DH both having the day off so will just spend it together (probably in our PJs eating Galaxy and watching Riverdale)
Your DH is too cute!!!

@LokiCat - aww your surprises sound lovely! I’m really pleased he did something nice for you :)

@MrsEG - that’s a bargain to be fair! And you’ll be making progress straight away, with the speed of the tests, so well worth it :) oh, and your birthday plans sound fantastic!

I should point out that there was so much talk of Galaxy today, I actually went to the shop at work to buy some

@ELW85 Ha I hope you enjoyed every bite of it! I used to be a dairy milk girl but have turned to the Galaxy side in recent years (cannot say no to a Minstrel!) Yep so pleased - when the woman on the phone said ‘would next Thursday be too soon?’ I could have cried! Only wish I’d known about them sooner really! Just crossing my fingers and toes now that nothing really nasty pops up during the tests but we’ll cross that bridge if and when xx

@Larrydavid @ELW85 glad it's not just me, once I've typed a response to one person I've forgotten the usernames of the other people and what each person said- can you imagine if I did get pregnant how awful the baby brain would be?!
Not sure I'd be able to function 🤪

@MrsEG I'm so glad you're getting seen. And I also love minstrels.

*This is not a real BFP!
*
Said I'd POAS and see what the trigger did. 😂

Ahhhhhhhh @ValidUser !!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Really, truly SO happy for you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤️ I had a feeling it would happen for you soon. I bet your DH is over the moon too! Such a lucky day today! I almost want to poas at 5dpo! 😂

@FlapJackered read the post - this is caused by a hCG injection. 😂

Sorry that sounded really rude. Totally unintentional.

@Bettythecat massive congratulations xxx

@ValidUser omg 😂 so it's true!! That's crazy 😂 x

@MrsEG I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time, fingers crossed now you have your letter everything will go super quickly and you'll have all the answers and support you need xxxx

@ValidUser Happy trigger day! How long does it take for that to even out, so you will know if you’re getting an actual BFP or not in two weeks time?? 🤞🏻

@cupcakesandglitter Thank you lovely - really can’t wait for the appointment now. Hope you are doing okay!

@MrsEG it can stay in your body for 10 days. At least this will stop me from testing at 5dpo.

🙈🙈🙈🙈 I am SUCH an idiot! That is what happens when you flick onto the thread without reading it! 😂 So sorry @ValidUser I hope I didn't offend with my ignorance! It comes from a good place as I am really rooting for you being one of the long timers here like me! I am going to go and hide now 😳

@FlapJackered not one little bit taken. To be honest, the congratulations felt good. ❤️🤞

@cupcakesandglitter it is! Came up straight away. Oddly satisfying.

@ValidUser Ha, very true!! The bigwigs at FRER won’t get nearly as big a sales bonus this month ;) Good luck!!

@ValidUser I suppose it's a good thing you can't test too early, weird to see a BFP though from it, I didn't know it was a thing! Fx you get your actual BFP this month ❤️

@FlapJackered you banana 😂😂 how are you? Xx

@MrsEG it'll fly by, think of how fast time has gone already - it's almost June! Xx

@ValidUser 🤦🏼‍♀️ thank you for not giving me a virtual slap! That is a very good line even if it is a trigger shot bfp! 😂

@cupcakesandglitter 🙈 definitely need to start reading before I type! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I get a little overexcited with bfp pictures. 😂
I am good thanks lovely just waiting out the tww. I wonder if I can put brain-not-working as a tww symptom? 😂
How are you?

@MrsEG that is great you have got an appointment and so soon! Will keep everything crossed you get some answers. I would be interested to hear what they say about the aspirin as I was thinking of taking it too next time. That is such a lovely idea with the fundraising!

@FlapJackered I’ll let you know what she says - I’ve obviously now googled it to death and there are some places that say not to use it unless prescribed, and not to use before 8 weeks. But very little to say why!! Then other sources say to take it from day of Ov! So who bloody knows. Hopefully all will be clearer this time next week!

@cupcakesandglitter I actually cannot believe it’s June this weekend - feels like Christmas was last month!

@FlapJackered I hear that 😂 especially when it's a long awaited one too, I know we'll get our BFPs eventually but still 😂 baby brain (minus the baby) is definitely a thing 😂 I'm okay thanks, CD30 but BFN this morning and I've actually dried up (first time for everything) but not had my pre AF spotting yet. Actually want her to turn up so we can start our plan 😂

@MrsEG oh I know!!! I'm excited, I'm in dire need of hot weather and a tan 😋

@MrsEG - will ask her! She's so good for advice, I hardly ever go to my own doctor anymore!

@LokiCat thank you! New York is amazing right? It's probably the only other city I could imagine myself living in!

@Kiza baby brain would be the end of me!!

@cupcakesandglitter I dread to think of what I will be like if get baby brain on top of my already useless brain 😂
Acht sorry to hear about the bfn. As we always say, you're not out until af turns up!
I hear you about the tan, my legs are a scary colour at the moment, I think I will unleash them to the world on Saturday to try and get them a bit less Colgate white!

@MrsEG its such a minefield isn't it! I have started writing down questions to ask our consultant when we see him at the end of June, so we can compare notes!

@FlapJackered and @cupcakesandglitter I get the excitement - it makes it all feel more possible.

If this isn't our month, I'm tempted by home IUI next month. Kits are cheap enough and DH worked in gynaecology a few years back so knows how to do it.

@FlapJackered false alarm, went to the loo and apparently have not dried up yet at all 😂 weird for me though, although I'm never dry I've been getting big blobs of stuff!! Bleeding eck. Yessss do it!!! I shaved mine for the first time this week in a while, DH wondered if I was feeling okay 😂 milk bottle legs for the win eh 😂 although I did some gardening last weekend and I've got a tan line around where my sliders were, so my foot just looks dirty 😂😩 xx

@ValidUser definitely does!! What's home IUI? Xx
