I'll say something though, I'm normally a 6 hours sleep a night kinda girl, last 2 nights I've been approaching 8 hours and I'm now feeling absolutely shattered like I could fall asleep. It is warm here 28-30 which could be assisting but this ain't normal for me

@flossy12 yayyy how exciting chick! Everything's getting itself going now. Yay! I bet you cannot wait to get the letter. It might be nice if you got it when you got back from holiday as then it'll feel closer 👌🏻

@claireb707 oh babe, I know the feeling. I've been sleeping from 9pm-7am+ 😳 which is completely out of character for me. If I hadn't of bleed last week I would of sworn I was PG. I even keep doubting that was even AF 🙈 who knows, it could be a good sign for you. Any sign of AF?

@flossy12 that's so exciting. Eeek time is flying by. Almost out of the third trimester. Hoping you can keep some carbs down and get some weight back on you babe!

Hi @AtouchofFremchy I'm in a similar place in the cycle as you - 8 DPO today. I have had some "symptoms" but last cycle I seemed to have every single symptom under the sun and was not pregnant so I think they don't mean much! Sorry to heat about your MC and hope you get your rainbow baby soon!

@Gigi318 Haha I wouldn't say that @flossy12 didn't DTD much, I think they did pretty much every day in FW from what I remeber from the September bus, and 3 times on peak day 😆 I think she just said she didn't DTD after ovulation, but at that point it doesn't really matter of course ☺️

@Raizelrea oh hahaha woops, @flossy12 I though you did DTD lots and then you said it wasn't much 🤣 but what Rai is saying makes waaaay more sense! I am going to aim for lots too and then I feel like it must work 🤷‍♀️🤣🙊👌🏻

@Gigi318 yeah hope so! Not that I wanna be huge but want to make sure baba is doing ok, also always run a low blood pressure but saw today when the midwife did it it was 95/58 which is quite low 😬 need to try and stomach as much fluid as I can!

@Raizelrea @Gigi318 I could have just gotten lucky 😅😅 but defo DTD more that month than any of the previous

@flossy12 that's good chick. I don't think you're meant to put much on in the first trimester anyway, so I'm sure you'll make up for it in the second and third 🙊 you sound small anyway so I doubt you'd get massive chick don't worry. I'm quite slim so imagine I'd be all bump. But mind you, I do like my food 😏 so who knows 🤣
Hehehe well babe, I'm aiming to follow in your footsteps and just have at it.... old school method should work right 🙊👌🏻

@flossy12 Your first trimester is flying by, hopefully you'll get your appetite back soon!

@Gigi318 Was just thinking this miserable weather is ideal for your fertile week - the only thing you can do when it's this awful outside is stay at home and be in bed 😆

@claireb707 Sorry about the BFN! Any signs of AF? Try to make the most of your hol and don't focus on it too much if you can (I know easier said than done!)

Nope no signs 😢

@Raizelrea hehehe that is so true! It's so miserable out, roll on the weekend. CD8 now, so keeping my eye out for changes in CM. Nothing yesterday, but hopefully we'll start getting watery soon!

@claireb707 it's a good thing that there's no sign of AF. Some people don't get a BFP until well after AF was due. A week or more. So unless AF shows, remember you're still in the game 👌🏻

How is everyone today? 💖

@Gigi318 I'm good, continuing to snail through my TWW 😆 Just read an article that basically confirmed how useless symptom spotting is, the progesterone can make you feel pregnant all the way up to 10 DPO apparently. After that the body stops producing it so whether the symptoms stop then or go on is a good indicator - makes total sense as that's exactly what happened for me last cycle. 9 DPO now so suppose I will know soon! How are you?

@Raizelrea that's SO handy to know as the exact same happened to me! I think I will just avoid overanalysing until I'm 10/11dpo and then think about it 🤣 nightmare hey. Glad you're keeping on! I am well thank you, chick. Feeling very much normal I think. Albeit tired, which is more to do with the weather I think! Busy day ahead though, so that's good! How are you? X

Hello ladies, sorry I was MIA for couple of days, really busy. How are we all doing? @claireb707 sorry about your BFN hun, but you're not out till af arrives!
I'm a bit puzzled, because my flo app says I ovulated yesterday and my Ovia says today, but (WARNING TMI) my CM is white and very much creamy did not notice any EWCM at all, although it was very watery when we DTD on 24.09. It is not possible to ovulate on CD 7 is it?

@Katie1109 hey chick, how are you? Hmm that is a confusing one. I say go by your body. You may not have O yet? I'm not sure about CD7, I instantly want to say no but it could have been, especially if you get AF next week! Could be a really short cycle maybe? I say keep an eye on that CM!

Katie1109 · 01/10/2019 14:13

Hi @Gigi318 yeah I’m all good hun, just a bit confused. Maybe you’re right and I’m going to ovulate a bit later, because I’m starting to feel some twinges, but they’re in the middle not only on 1 side? Lol x how are you getting on? Waiting for FW now are you? x

@Katie1109 glad to hear it chick! It's so confusing isn't it, best to pay attention to what's going on with CM and see if that helps you maybe. Our bodies can be so confusing sometimes! Yes I'm CD8 now so waiting for this time next week. It will be here before we know it though, I bet! Just enjoying not quiet being in the TWW for now. Hurrah!

@flossy12 Completely missed you saying that you had your booking appointment, all these exciting milestones! Won't be long till your next scan!

@Katie1109 Hope you covered all bases! I did read that sometimes ovulation doesn't necessarily match your CM, oddly enough. That said my mum knew someone who ovulated towards the end of their AF so cd7 is also not impossible!

@Gigi318 Morning! How are you today? ☺️

Morning x
Well according to my apps I ovulated Mon/Tues so I am now in TWW with af scheduled for 15th of October x I don't know what to think about my CM, it's milky white now x How are you @Gigi318 getting all ready and energised for your FW? We DTD 6 times in the last 7 days, so maybe we'll catch it x now the symptom spotting begins lol x
