@CiaraJ01 I find that the earlier I start the more I spend. I buy and buy and buy and then I starve for the whole of Jan. lol. I've getting deliveries everyday as well...I love Amazon prime ❤️ Haha that's funny his bought alcohol, but he just knows you to well lol. Well in past two months I've been drinking here and there. Not heavily but still drinking. This is the first time I thought I should stop especially after MC, it sort made me question if I'm doing all I can. I don't think it affects it at all but then I'm no doctor so who knows. I'm not even fertile right now but the longer I can do it the easier it'll become (I hope) 🙏🏽 If I'm going to have any it should be now really, about 5 days before trying. You're a few days into the 2ww right?

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:27

@mellymoo86 yep around 3 days dpo? what do you reckon? skip the booze tomorrow or yolo? I'm an all or nothing kinda girl, so after NYE I'll be tee total till end if Feb when I have my best friends hen... unless that BFP comes sooner 🤞

Definitely agree about spending more by starting earlier! I bought my nephew some bits and pieces as I went along and wrapped them all a while ago - found more in my wardrobe for him a week later 🙈

And amazon prime doesnt even feel like you're spending real money! 😂

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 14:42

@CiaraJ01 most of my friends got pregnant several times whilst being completely wasted 😂 they didn't plan it that way, it just happened. And when I conceived last month I was tipsy. It's probably considered ok to drink before or when you're in the fertile week because there's nothing happening yet but in that 2ww you should probably be more careful as that's when the whole process starts. Alcohol would still make you dehydrated which affects your cm which may affect sperm 🤷🏽‍♀️ ultimately it affects your hormones and if you have conceived and implanting is happening your body will devote all it's resources to make sure it happens right and if alcohol alters it then it can't be a good thing. writes this with a glass of wine in hand 😂

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:50

😂😂😂 that is very sound advice even if you are currently preaching from behind you're wine glass 🥂🥂

Oh I dont know!! I sound like an alcoholic!! 😂 Part of me is just 'what will be will be' cant live you're life like that etc etc... but then the other half is 'if you cant avoid alcohol for this then what's the point' Like I said, I'm a big drinker - it will not be accepted I'm not drinking for any other reason. And I know I dont have to explain, but 1. it's obvious and 2. I couldnt stick them all being so tipsy and me being sober 😂🙈 So I'd likely cancel..

3 DPO - what's the earliest implantation happens?!

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 14:50

@mellymoo86 sooooo petty of plyour OH mum with the giving back stuff! Patheticccccc I think of that meme with the Simpsons guy, principal of the school haha have you seen it? 😂😂
Yeah I mean she'd have to meet me then but I don't even think it's a nasty way from I genuinely thinkshe has issues.

LOL gagging for a pornstar they are beauuuttt tho! Yeah it's annoying when people make it their business to ask why aren't you drinking I don't care how close they are I'm like mate I don't want to relax 😂 ffs then everyone complains when I get loud and off my face... DON'T FORCE THE ISSUE THEN 😂

@ciaraj01 as I said above lol I used to think she was being horrible but now I'm like she's just crazy because she defends me to him? Like he will go to her for advise in some things and she'll back me up 🤷‍♀️ as I said really weird situation. But she doesn't talk to her oldest daughter and her grandson but they had a bad relationship so I don't know much about that. 🤷‍♀️ Family ay

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 14:51

Googled it - implantation ranges from 6-12 DPO although average is 8-9 🤔🤔

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 14:52

@ciaraj01 I'm 4dpo so we are close! Well online earliest is like 5 or 6 dpo?

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 15:08

@Ellsbells112 @CiaraJ01 I've got this app on my phone to encourage me. It's doing f*ck all. 😂

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 15:15

@Ellsbells112 yeah it's ridiculous...no offence to them but if you want to be married to a Pakistani Muslim girl and if my parents wanted me to marry a Srilankan boy then why bring us to the UK? Leave us in peace man! Lol. Sounds like she just generally has issues, so further she is the better. You don't need additional drama in your life.

Pornstar martinis are SO good. I can drink them like water. I noticed at slug and lettuce for like £40 they do a pornstar martini tree!! So on each branch they put 6 cocktails on it. It's for a group obviously but I'm good with one of those trees lol.

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 15:25

@mellymoo86 hahahaha yaaaaas to the porn star martini tree. Listen, I will drink them all and turn into a poor star for my man and then we will make babiiieeeesss.

Yeah exactly it makes nooo sense of you're going to be like that why would you be in such mixed country? Lol people are so stuck in their small minded way of thinking. Jokes on them

@ciaraj01 yeah that's the average but you can implant earlier but it's realllllly rare

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 15:45

@Ellsbells112 we aren't helping @CiaraJ01 make a decision 😂

To be honest that's probably why women conceive when they're drunk. We get extra horny and the men get all flustered and their swimmers just get high on adrenaline and swim for their lives 😂

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 16:08

@nt1992 My AF is due tomorrow. And I'm having cramps. : (

mellymoo86 · 06/12/2019 16:48

@PrettyGirl5545 oh no :( sorry to hear that

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 16:58

@mellymoo86 I feel sh*t. It's going to be 1 year of ttc. Took folic acid regularly as well. I want to burst out. My Dh is also tired of seeing me like this.

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 17:13

@prettygirl5545 I'm really sorry to hear this. I know nothing I say can make it better, I'm losing my mind at 4 months, I can't imagine 12. We are here for you even if it's not much. Have you had tests done? Xx

nt1992 · 06/12/2019 17:18

@CiaraJ01 I am fine! Just winging this 2 WW🤦🏽‍♀️😂

@PrettyGirl5545 I hope AF doesn't show for you 😰 got everything crossed!🤞🏼

CiaraJ01 · 06/12/2019 17:24

@PrettyGirl5545 sorry to hear, I can only guess how frustrating it is!! Have you had a chat with your GP yet?

@mellymoo86 I love your concept of drunken conception! I think I will drink tomorrow, dont judge me ladies! I've decided I'll just I enjoy the end of the year, if it's to be it will. I'll test before Inset off for Ireland and I'll either be pregnant or not and that will be my decision made on alcohol 🤷‍♀️

Its frustrating enough TTC and although I want to help it in every way - I don't want to become so focused on it I'm not enjoying the rest of my life. Have I convinced you guys?? 😂😂 I've only need TTC for 2 months so I reckon it's too early to completely focus on it - if it doesnt happen then I've always dry Jan.

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 17:24

@Ellsbells112 i was so tired of peeing on sticks from 10 months. So i had promised this time that i won't test and i won't keep my hopes high. i did keep my promise and i didn't test. But wat about my hopes?! They never die even if i try to kill them. I am planning to see the doc for bloods and check if everything is fine with me. My DH doesn't want me to visit a doc that's y i had waited for bloody 10 months. But now i can't stop myself.

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 17:27

Should i first visit my GP? Or directly go to a gynaec? My DH says we can still try for some more months before visiting a doc.

Ellsbells112 · 06/12/2019 17:28

@prettygirl5545 of course, you need to do what is best for you. At the end of the day if there is an issue better to know earlier and then you can help it. Do you track ovulation and your temperature? Do you get positive opks? Also do you get ewcm around time of ovulation? How long are your cycles, are they normal? (not short LP)
I'm really sorry 🙏 I get so down every time I don't end up pregnant. I can't help but worry there is something wrong with me even though I know healthily it can take a year. Definitely go to the doctors and get the ball rolling, for your own peace of mind!

nt1992 · 06/12/2019 17:35

@PrettyGirl5545 I know you have cramps but have you actually took a test? Just to completely rule that out? Cramps in early pregnancy are really common

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 17:38

@Ellsbells112 My cycles are always 28 days long. i bleed for 7 days and are normal. I ovulate on CD12- CD15. At first i used to try opks but it was causing a lot of stress and i found that i have pain at the time of ovulation. So we dtd every other day during CD10-CD16. I dont track temperature for ovulation but i do in the 2ww. I get EWCM during ovulation but i feel that I'm more wet after Ovulation i don't know why. What to do dear? I'm so so stressed that i can't explain. Was tooo chill this cycle but the last two days of the cycle has stressed me a lot.

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 17:43

@nt1992 No dear. These are definitely AF cramps. I will let u guys know tomorrow when the witch shows up her ugly face. I have test kits with me but I don't want to test coz i know its defo a BFN love. I have seen BFNs like a trillion times. I have seen BFPs just in pictures sent by you ladies. : ( i wonder if i will ever see a BFP.

nt1992 · 06/12/2019 17:45

@PrettyGirl5545 it seems you have your mind set that you're going to get a BFN. But the only way you will know is by testing or waiting for AF😞. The cramps in early pregnancy are very similar to AF cramps but a bit milder so don't lose all hope yet my lovely❤️

PrettyGirl5545 · 06/12/2019 17:57

Thanks dearie @nt1992.. I will let u know tomorrow after AF arrives. And ifffff (that's not gonna happen i know) she doesn't show up, i'll test. Also planning to start opks again next cycle.
