Old one almost full!

Lovely rose!

Good luck for all the testers tomorrow :D

Hi guys. Not really sure where I'm at. I was convinced I was due AF but I've just spotted here and there for a couple of days which has never happened. Took a test today and think I got a very faint line (posted in another post) but we'll see. Bit concerned that I'm still spotting.

@ELW85 ahhh Caroline is so cute 😍😍 definitely keep updating us with her photos! It's been sunny here luckily.
I love Italian food! Found a recipe for garlic cheese knots, which turned out pretty nice and made a chicken pie to go with them.
Ah no, that's frustrating! We had the same issue when getting a new kitchen fitted. Have you looked at Howdens? That's who we went with and they do bathrooms as well (just need a builder with an account to get a quote). Their prices are around midrange.

@MrsH497 what a beautiful rose 😍

@throughthemountains tentative congratulations for your bfp! Spotting is supposed to be normal in early pregnancy. Fingers crossed the line gets stronger and all is okay 🤞🏽

@ELW85 love the Caroline pics! She's so beautiful!

Could never get anything with my name on as a child so I'm well chuffed about my rose!

Af due tomorrow. Keep running to the bathroom thinking she's here but no sign as of yet. We shall see

Hi all,
I have been a long time lurker but thought it was about time I posted something on here.
Im 25 and my DH is 39. We have been TTC since November last year and I think I am cycle 9 now. At first I was very relaxed about it all and expected it to happen quickly like all my friends around me but alas that has not been the case. I never thought I would be one to get jealous of other people but I feel like every week someone I know is announcing they are pregnant and I am starting to get that pang of ‘why hasn’t it happened for me yet’ and then I feel guilty for those feelings.
The last two cycles I have been convinced that I was pregnant each time as my period was late on both occasions for nearly a week but it turned up eventually both times. I am now 10DPO and praying that this month is my month.
None of my friends know we are trying so hoping to get some support on here so that I don’t go stir crazy!

Evening all! Currently distracting myself from tomorrow’s testing day with a Letterman interview of Kanye. Might have also had cookie dough...

@MrsH497 - thank you, she’s a sweetie! And what a gorgeous rose! It must be lovely for it to be your namesake :)

@LokiCat - garlic knots. Can ship some please? They sound unreal and you sound very talented!
Thanks for the bathroom tip - I’ll have a little google now :)
I hope you’ve had a lovely evening?

@Mrskcam - keeping everything crossed for you! I’m due AF Mon/Tues and am just hoping against hope these aches aren’t anything to do with her impending arrival.

@Eventrider1 - you’ve come to the right place for support and ladies who are going through very similar experiences, so welcome. Keeping everything crossed for you that this cycle is the one.

@Eventrider1 I'm 10dpo too!! Fingers crossed for you guys this month. I'm on cycle 3, but can relate to how you feel about everyone getting pregnant so easily!!! It's like no one around us knows the agony of failing every month... If things continue as they are, at what point will you seek GP advice? I've been wondering about going myself xx

@Eventrider1 aww well you are not alone. I've been to my friends baby shower today, which I planned, I am so happy for her and I done everything possible to make sure she had the best day but at the same time it's heartbreaking, because there is just no reasoning as to why it's easy for some and so hard for others.

I find what makes it harder is the constant questions from everyone asking when I'm having one, and the "you're not getting any younger" comments. I shrug them off but they really get to me. If we could all have them at the click of a finger then them questions would be ok but some people are just rude.

Let's hope our time is the next few months and I really hope you get your positive this month

Xxx

P.s. took a test today (DPO 10)... BFN :(

@FlorenceLane well I went to the drs in April for an unrelated matter (I still suffer from hormonal acne at the age of 25) and she asked if we were trying as it limits what they could give me and I said yes but nothing had happened yet. She said we would need to have been trying for 2 years before they would look at intervening. But I think if nothing has happened by the new year, then I might try and get an appointment to check things out.
@ELW85 @Maisy24 thanks both, just have to keep hoping. Originally I was adamant that I could only fall pregnant at a certain time due to the event season with my horses, but now I am beyond caring and just want it to happen!

@ELW85 Caroline is too cute!!

@LokiCat I am day 11 of this cycle. Cycles are usually 30 days.

Good luck all the girls testing this weekend. X

Guys - I’m absolutely shaking but I think this is it???

@ELW85 omg!!! I knew it! Huge congratulations! That is a very clear BFP!! Ahhh I'm so happy for you lovely ❤️❤️

@LokiCat - thank you so, so much! ❤️
DH is at work so I’m sat in ecstatic disbelief!!
I realise I should have told him first but I just can’t and needed to triple check and make sure I wasn’t going mad!
Are you testing today? Got everything crossed for you xx

@ELW85 massive congratulations!! Definitely a line there!! With your DH at work means you can do a lovely surprise later x

@newgirl89 - thank you so much!! Currently plotting how to tell him 😃 x

Congratulations @ELW85 :D

I was hoping that someone would get their BFP this weekend :D

Enjoy yelling DH xx

@ELW85 ah it'll be a nice surprise for him when he comes home! Can't wait to hear about his reaction! I was hoping to see this when I checked this morning 😊
I got a bfn unfortunately! I'm probably just going to wait to see if AF shows on Tuesday, otherwise test then. I don't think this is the cycle for me though.

Thank you so much, @Anny27!

Sorry to hear that, @LokiCat. I’ll keep everything crossed for you!
I think I’ll cry when I tell him, but I can’t wait to see his face!

@ELW85, wahoooo!! Congratulations sweet! Xx

@ELW85 yay huge congratulations to you!! Delighted for you!

@LokiCat sorry about your bfn. Fingers crossed for the next one x

@Fivebyfive2 @LikeTheFruit - thank you so much ladies!!
I hope you’re both getting on well? :) x

Morning ladies, just catching up on all the posts man I’m tired today, never got home until 1:30 🙈 which is very late for me

@LokiCat I was having a freak out yesterday as my nausea has disappeared but of course it ramped up at the party, think it was maybe because I took my vitamins at breakfast and not dinner? 😂 I just went with being designated driver was easier due to where we live although one person did ask if I was pregnant! Hopefully we can get them out in the next few weeks as a month is ridiculous!

@MrsH497 that’s good although I feel a gas leak and bath leak are pretty major 😬 Your rose is absolutely gorgeous, such a lovely colour!

@ELW85 luckily the bbq was called off so we just went for dinner instead I was slightly gutted as there were a lot of cured meats on the menu! Ahh look at Caroline she’s just gorgeous!!

@ValidUser hoe you are feeling ok lovely!

@Eventrider1 hello and welcome ☺️

@FlorenceLane sorry it was a BFN but not out until AF shows!

@ELW85 ahhhhhhh massive congratulations lovely!! I am so so happy for you ❤️ That’s not even a squinter!

@LokiCat sorry it’s a BFN but still time, I have everything crossed for you!
