And welcome to any newbies that want to join this mad mad world of trying to conceive x

That sounds like a perfect Saturday and that was me last Saturday. Now today I have had a massive sort out got rid of 6 black bags worth of clothes and did a deep clean of the house. Did Christmas food shop online after someone mentioned it on here. Trying to do anything to reduce stress levels. Christmas decks going up tomorrow finally and only two weeks left in work before a good few days off.

@BabyB19

It's me that does the shop online, I love it, I can't bare the shops this time of year 😭 you just need a duvet day occasionally don't you @Jonesbabynumber1 x

I cleared my clothes out last week too and I've sold loads on Vinted for extra Christmas prezzies x

@BabyB19 well thank you for the online shopping tip knowing me there’s something that ive forgotten but least I want have to do a big awkward shop now. That’s good I can’t do the selling thing as it’s stresses me out so it will be off to charity. Any other tips to make life a little easier? ☺️ Have you got any pets, my cat is a massive help in helping me de stress x

@BabyB19

I do mine on ASDA and it saves all your frequent things and when you go to check it it says 'have you forgotten something' with a list, so I rarely forget stuff the more I do it 👍🏼 @Jonesbabynumber1 I work in the same road as the post office so I just take a few things at a time on my lunch break to post them off ☺️

@BabyB19 yes I’ve just done mine on Asda hope I don’t get any weird alternatives though 😂 and I definitely bought more than I normally would 😅. Yes that makes it easier then.

Really?! I always find its less because I'm like a magpie when i walk around the shop I just throw all sorts in the trolly and then get nervous when I get to till haha @Jonesbabynumber1 x

@BabyB19 I think Christmas food shops are generally always more expensive I’ve got the family coming around for Christmas dinner so having to buy a extra food to keep everyone happy including alcohol. Has your hangover gone now?

Yes but I feel pretty rubbish still, achy and sore throat etc. Always in the bloody fertile window isn't it 😭🤦🏽‍♀️ @Jonesbabynumber1 nice you have your family coming, we do seperate Christmas days we always have done, have dinner with our own families and then meet up after dinner. This will change when we have our own family but for now it works for us ☺️

I just did my opk and it's dropped right down from yesterday so must have peak during the night. App says I'm due to OV in 2 days so I think I'm just about spot on. Going to BD today, tomorrow and the next day to cover it 👍🏼

@babyb19 aw we used to do that but since buying our own home we’ve had it at ours. Try and do it at same time as yesterday as I know that can make the difference. But yes may have happened over night but that’s why I don’t like OPK as that was the same as me as last month and not seeing that strong opk made me question it. So far I much prefer every other day bd feels normal and no pressure.

I did two yesterday and the afternoon one was 77 so it definitely rising through the day @Jonesbabynumber1 I couldn't have all my family round it's too big I'd be stressed to death 🤣 x

@BabyB19 @Jonesbabynumber1 morning ladies how are you both? Just catching up. According to my app I'm on cd15 and says ovulation due tomorrow. I've actually not bd that much at all I really need to get on it today 😆 I'm hungover and having a duvet day so hopefully today is the day..unless I've missed it as I've only done 1 opk this month so I'm not sure. I'm gonna have a nice lazy Sunday and put a Christmas film on and do some wrapping up 🎅🏻

Hi @dizzy85 nice to have you back! You sound super chilled too this month, I'm glad we're feeling a bit more relaxed as I'm sure it's going to lead to some bfp's this month! X

@BabyB19 I definitely think there will be some bfps on here for sure this month I just have that feeling. Have you been bd a lot? I've been so busy with other stuff we've not had time as much but I'm definitely really relaxed and not been obsessed yet I say yet as the tww is just around the corner 😆. What days your af due? Mine is the 23rd.

Mine is due Christmas Day! @dizzy85 so could be a really good Christmas or a really crappy Christmas! I have a feeling too, it hasn't been a very lucky thread so far so that's got to change at some point! We have done a few times but not over the top. Going to tonight, tomorrow and Tuesday though to make sure I don't miss the OV day x

@BabyB19 I'm so excited to find out for everyone this month. Wow actual Christmas Day! Got everything crossed for you. Yes the luck is going to change. I'm gonna do the same bd today and hopefully we can fit it in a few more times. I'm not even sure when 1dpo will be for me so I'm just gonna go with what my app says and see what happens.

I'm due to OV mon-tues so I'm going to count from Wednesday as 1 dpo to be sure. I'm dreading the tww as I've been so relaxed this month and I know I'll turn into a crank again 😭 @dizzy85

My app says I'm due ov tomorrow. Tempted to do an opk and see. Yer I said to my oh how chilled I've been this month too but then it's not even the tww yet so that will most likely change 😂 but I'm hoping I'll be so preoccupied with Christmas stuff as I have left it all to the last minute that I won't have time to be too crazy.

I've pretty much got everything done now so I know I'll be twiddling my thumbs 🤦🏽‍♀️😭 @dizzy85

@dizzy85 @BabyB19 glad to hear your chilled as well. I have no idea when I’m ovulating hopefully temping tells me but knowing me it won’t 😂 and no idea when I’m due on as I had 30 day cycle last month. I’m going to try and keep the chilled attitude going. I’d love to just wait to see if AF arrives as a BFN would be depressing

I sick of wasting money on tests tbh so I'm hoping maybe I will be able to lay off them this month, or at the very least just satisfy the POAS addiction with ICs and then buy one two pack of FRERS @Jonesbabynumber1 @dizzy85

@BabyB19 @Jonesbabynumber1 I have 1 frer left from last month which I've said to myself I'm not gonna buy anymore and just use that the day before af due so the 22nd..I think I'm kidding myself but I'm really gonna try. If I get desperate I'll get a pack of cheap ones but really I don't wanna waste anymore money especially this month. Let's see how long we actually last in reality 😂
