Old one almost full!

@Lozzlepop Oh wow congratulations! Fantastic news ♥️ Delighted for you.

@MrsLBear @FlapJackered @elw85 thanks, no we didn’t suspect a thing, I’ve been exhausted but otherwise my symptoms have been really quite mild! The doctors told me this could be the calm before the storm though and I certainly feel a good bit more queasy today.

@MrsEG ah how amazing. It's probably one of those that now you know everything will feel like it ramps up as well! All the best ❤️

@MrsEG wow that is amazing! Congratulations, fingers crossed for you 😊

@Lozzlepop ahh amazing, I had a feeling you were going to get this good news with your symptoms. I bet you cannot wait to tell dh tomorrow 😊

@Lozzlepop yes!!! Had such a good feeling for you this month. A million Congratulations to you my wee pal from across the Forth! ❤️❤️❤️

@Lozzlepop ahhh huge congratulations:D that is so exciting :)

Enjoy telling DH the good news :):):)

@MrsLBear this was my 3rd session she does different things each time dependent on my cycle as well.

I'm 1 dpo! Not holding out much hope to be honest but hey. Honestly the month I fell pregnant I didn't use OPKs or apps or preseed nothing.

I'm noticing more people who are pregnant as well it's tough. X

@Lozzlepop yesssss! So many congratulations- such brilliant news ❤️

@ELW85 ah I hope it doesn't get crazy! Oooh exciting - what one did you get? Congrats on the new car!

@MrsH497 I seem to be noticing pregnant womeneverywhere as well. So many 'baby on board' badges on the train! Also, the last three times I've been to dinner with friends, they've all announced that they're pregnant 🙈 I refuse to meet up with anyone anymore 😂

@LokiCat thank you so much! It deffo does,
I have been exhausted today, had a nap in the car and then slept for almost 2 hours after the safari park 😂

@ELW85 thanks lovely, I honestly can’t believe it, does mean I need to take the car now to lunch tomorrow 😂

@MrsLBear @MrsH497 thank you so much!

@Fivebyfive2 I’m so excited to tell him tomorrow it’s killing me keeping it in 😂 How are you doing?

@MrsEG thanks so much hun ☺️ Just hoping everything goes well this time 🤞🏻

@Lottiepink at least I know there’s a reason for it now and I’m not just a lazy bones! I cannot wait it’s going to be the last gift he gets!

@LikeTheFruit ahhhh that you so much! Big waves from across the forth! Deffo thinking that missing the peak on OPKs and a Majorca trip is the way forward lol

@Anny27 @Larrydavid thank you 😄

Ladies thank you so much for all the love I am so overwhelmed by your kind words,
I hope you don’t mind if I stick about for a while with my gals

@Lozzlepop haha aww bless you! Yes, please stick around, would love to know how you're doing and let us know your OH's reaction!
Fingers crossed this is a sticky bean 😊 xx

Bit of a nosy question @Lozzlepop, I hope you don't mind - what days did you DTD during your fertile week/+OPK? I know you did SMEP this month - was it every other day?

@LokiCat - I’m getting a Merc CLA :) very excited!! This all sparked as I’m on DH’s car scheme at work and they need it back to his workplace sooner than expected so I found a good lease deal.
I’m not convinced it’s going to be big enough for a pram, but he’s assuring me it will be!
Just need a reason to buy one now 🤞🏻

@Lozzlepop - please do stick around! It’s lovely having you here!

@LokiCat no not nosy at all, we DTD on day 8 and then DTD every second day then the way it worked out we DTD the day before +OPK the day of +OPK then skipped a day and done it the next day!

I'm 9dpo today and we've been really relaxed this cycle so in my head I've already counted this month out but all today I have been having the strangest pulling sensation behind my belly button? And when I bend over I get a stabby feeling that goes upwards when I stand up straight 🧐 really not symptom spotting as tbh I have counted myself out but after feeling so off the last couple of months I'm a bit confused about what my body is doing. Just want some opinions I guess, dunno whether to think it's bad or not??

Hope you don't mind me popping back in, I always have a little look hoping for good news for you lovely ladies and thrilled to see your BFP @Lozzlepop. Enjoy telling your DP today :)

@TrashKitten10 snap!! Thought I'd check back here too and SO HAPPY to see your BFP @Lozzlepop!!! This is your time! Lots of baby dust to everyone else 💕

@TrashKitten10 thanks so much lovely, he’s still asleep 🙈 how are you?

@OhMarnie thank you, I really hope so! Feeing quite sick so taking that as a good sign 😂 how are you getting on?

We’re off out for lunch today, what’s everyone’s plans? ☺️

@Lozzlepop not too bad thanks! I will be 22 weeks tomorrow and quite enjoying the second trimester, no more sickness but feeling quite tired - not sure where this elusive 'energy' is that my mum told me I'd get 🙄 enjoy telling DP, I was just saying to my DH that finding out we were pregnant was one of the most special parts of this journey (obviously along with the 12 and 20 week scans) I'd love to replicate that moment and feel it again!

A boring day for me, I'm exam marking for GCSE so I'll be tied to my laptop all day! Hope everyone else has more exciting plans!

Morning ladies!

@ELW85 ooh very nice! Enjoy your new car tomorrow!!

@Lozzlepop great thanks. Enjoy your lunch! I've just got a day of chores, unfortunately. Going to sort my wardrobe out as well, it's a mess! Can't wait to hear about DP's reaction :) x

@TrashKitten10 nice to see you! How have you been feeling, how far along are you now?

@OhMarnie wow 22 weeks already!

It was raining here last night! Really hope this doesn't mean the bad weather is returning! I just bought a lovely dress and skirt on my shopping trip yesterday! 😩

Morning everyone!

@Lozzlepop - how are you feeling, and have you done the grand reveal yet?

@LokiCat - we’re going to do the rounds today with my friend and brother having both just moved to the coast, so two lots of dropping presents off!
Then redesigning the bathrooms and maybe some food at some point :)
How was your shopping trip? Sounded succsssful!

@Mrskcam - I’ve not heard of that before, but that’s not to say it’s not a sign! When are you planning on testing?

@OhMarnie wow 22 weeks already! That has flown in, do you know what you are having? Yes that was one of our best moments too, I think this time we are slightly less excited as we just don’t want to get our hopes up!

@LokiCat Sunday is usually my chore day too but I’m sure a week off won’t do any harm! Hopefully the weather picks up and you get to wear your new purchases

@ELW85 yes the grand unveil has been done although we were halfway through presents and the Asda delivery turned up early 😂 enjoy new car day tomorrow!!

Well DP is thrilled 😁 there were some tears, although turns out he suspected I was doing a test yesterday so I guess it wasn’t as big a surprise as I was hoping for 😂

@Lozzlepop yeah we are having a little girl 😊💕

Yeah that's totally understandable that you feel apprehensive, still - I have a good feeling about this one! 🥰

@OhMarnie oh how lovely 😊 congratulations!! Thanks Hun, fingers crossed 😘

@Lozzlepop congratulations!

@MrsEG that's amazing!

@Lozzlepop Aww, sounds like a lovely reveal, even if the Asda van chose the wrong moment to turn up ☺️ I can understand your apprehension and really really hope it's all plain sailing for you from here

@LokiCat Lovely to see you too! I'm feeling good at the moment. Just like @OhMarnie I'm not exactly feeling full of energy but appreciating no sickness! 22+4 so getting there :) Having another scan in the morning as baby wasn't very cooperative for the 20 week scan and we think it's a little girl 🥰 How are you getting on?
