Hi girls, started new thread because the old one is running out.

Does anyone else feel all consumed with thinking they’re pregnant.
I’ve just ordered 10 FRER so I can manically test every day like a lunatic

Just feel like I will only relax once AF comes

@Katie1109 It's definitely easy to be in the mind frame but as negative as I am at the moment you should be positive 🤞. Your doing everything you can to catch this egg and that's all you can do. Your right it will happen when it's meant too but your definatly giving it a good go and a boost 😊. The boobs symptom is a very good one! I've got everything crossed for you!

@myttcjourney oh girl 😞 I hope you can relax soon. Although I think that I was very much like that last month, I think testing every day isn't a good idea. It will drive you crazy. After all, whatever has happened has already happened. It's not easy, chick. But try to throw yourself into something to be able to find a distraction. What will be, will be my love!

@Hewie30 @Katie1109 me too girls, I think you're both in a good place right now, we've got this 🤞🏻💫

@gigi318 You feeling positive hun? I'm hoping so, I feel in two minds but going to keep as positive as I can 🤞🤞

@gigi318 Like you say we've got this 🤞. We've got eachother through this mad time!

Spotting seems to have stopped again

@Hewie30 I am, yes. We DTD last three days and I'm feeling twinges now, so hopefully O is happening right now!! But I also think that I'll be able to just relax this time, as last month showed me that stressing over it and symptom spotting doesn't help in the slightest 🤣🙈 exactly. We've got this. How are you feeling today? Xx

@gigi318 Eeek sounds like you've covered yourself really well hun 🤞🤞, I've got everything crossed for you it sounds positive. Erm... So so but I think it's because I'm turning 31 on Friday. I thought I'd have a child by now or at least be pregnant. I'm trying to remain positive though 😊🤞 xxx

@Hewie30 thanks chick. Just a bit worried (not worried, but conscious) that OH is away til Thursday now and if O happens later than today/tomorrow, will we have it covered? So hard! Will watch out for any EWs just to be sure. Oh chick, don't put so much pressure on yourself. Age is just a number. It's so silly to expect certain things by certain ages - but we all do it. I would like to buy a house, and still no where near, but we will get there. How exciting that it's your birthday this week - that came around quickly. Hope you have nice plans for it!! X

Thank you for the birthday wishes lovelies, admittedly I've had better birthdays, both me and OH now have grandparents in hospital with not so great prognoses. My bleeding got stronger than regular AF and I'm still nauseous, safe to say it was a chemical. Spent the day at work so managed to pull it together. Onwards and upwards.

Not sure if I'll be doing any FW/ovulation tracking this month as will likely be all over the place with the family members health problems, but I will be around rooting for you girls - don't want to miss those BFPs!

Oh @Raizelrea that's tough chick 😢 that's been a rough old birthday for you, I'd say I hope it improves for you but it doesn't sound like it will xx

@Raizelrea oh babe, I'm sorry to hear that. Your grandparents are in my thoughts, hoping they get better soon! But, as you said, at least you know you can conceive and hopefully you will be extra fertile next month. A relaxed month could be just want you need (in the TTC sense, as I'm sure you'll be a bit all over the shop this month now). Yes, stay with us and just DTD whenever you feel like it, no need to add something else to a busy month.
Do you have any nice plans for this evening to try and take your mind off of everything? X

@Raizelrea Oh hun I'm sorry to hear about your grandparents and your chemical. What a double blow, especially on your birthday too 😔. TTC is such a hard process especially when you have other health issues going on in the family. Please take some time out for you and to focus on yourself. I understand what you mean with not tracking etc, I'm finding its making me a lot calmer this month. Lots of love to you ❤️

@gigi318 Yeah we all most definitely do and like you say it's natural. There's just so many thoughts out there with where you should be and at what age. But I'm determined to remain positive and calm this month and just leave it up to mother nature 🤷. Awh you'll get your house! That's a tough market to get into at the moment. We only managed it with the help to buy scheme otherwise we would have to wait years until we've saved up

@Hewie30 I'm in the same boat and I have 10 years on you xxx

Stuck with a child hating ex for 10 years will do that to you...

@Hewie30 oh absolutely, and so much pressure from friends and family - whether they mean it or not. But I just always try to remember that I'm on my own path and I want to do things my own way. And it will happen when it happens.
Absolutely, we may look into that. Although I want to buy a fixer upper in the sticks, so I'm not sure if help to buy covers that?

@claireb707 try to stay positive, chick. Don't let that see you next Tuesday make you mad. Not worth it. You've got this, and by the sounds of it, now with the right partner and someone who would make a great father. So you're on track 💫

Oh I am definitely with the best man now, couldn't be happier in that regard 😀 and a little one would just make it even better

@claireb707 that's the spirit chick! Always silver linings. And your little bean will join you soon, just you see!

@clare707 Bless you, the good thing is he's now a ex and your with someone now who wants the same as you 😊.

@gigi318 Most definatly! I feel calmer this month for sure. I've not been fussed about doing opks and I'm usually on point with doing them. We'll see where the month takes me 😊. Help to buy is so good! Erm I don't believe you can, I think it's only for new builds 🤔

@Hewie30 that's so good. Woohoo, I knew this month would be a good thing for you. Hope you're DTD regularly just to be sure. How exciting.
Arghh yes, and that's the problem 😩 really don't want a new build as we're so used to be out in the middle of nowhere! We're in a barn conversion now. But we will get there. Funny the pressures we put on ourselves, hey!

@claireb707 Thank you, good to hear your spotting stopped, hopefully there will be a better turn of events for you!

@Hewie30 Good to hear you're well and thank you! It's been a challenging time but I'll be fine. Don't worry about your age, you've hit one of the good years when your birthday falls on a Friday ☺️ Nice to hear the hands off approach is putting your mind at ease, I know you have hesitations and that it feels like less control but taking a step back is useful sometimes.

@Gigi318 Thank you ⭐ OH made me a lovely three course meal and we're now just chilling out by the fireplace with loads of candles. He is such a good one ☺️ Is your OH away now? I'm sure you'd managed to DTD plenty so a couple days of shouldn't do much harm 🤞

@Raizelrea oh that sounds absolutely perfect, what a gem he is! Exactly what you needed this evening. Heaven! He is, yes. He will be back soon though! Hopefully it flies by. Yes we did three days in a row and a few last week, so hopefully that'll help! And we can resume when he is back too 🤣

Period has arrived 😢

Sorry @claireb707 I hope it's relatively painfree and swift so that you can turn a new leaf this cycle!

Currently feeling like I've been kicked in the belly by a horse 😢😢 not great to cope with at work
