Hi Ladies,

So we seem to be absolutely hammering through our May Bus 2 thread. My gosh we can chat! But you have been vital to my sanity this cycle ❤️❤️❤️ I've tagged as many as i can think of at the end of a working week 🤯 please tag the others as I absolutely haven't the brain power!

@Nicolet91 - that sounds absolutely amazing! 😍😍 Love a good old love story.

@Fluffkins14 my fave fertility guru, Ingefleur, has some videos about surviving and thriving in the 2ww - look on her blog or YouTube. Also this link is useful: www.tomakeamommy.com/tips-for-the-luteal-period-how-i-boosted-chances-of-implantation-and-pregnancy/

@Fluffkins14 no me neither! Urgh that sounds very frustrating having different predicted af times! I may give CB a miss next month and try cheapies instead or nothing at all. This month has just thrown me completely. 🤞 af doesn’t show for you! x

@RobinRose I didn't realise how frustrating ovulation was till trying TTC 🙄 CB app is saying I O on 13th/14th and AF still due 25th, I have 2 other apps going by my OPKs I ovulate yesterday and will get AF around 30th... losing trust in CB tbh 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is making the ttw worse so I'm expecting AF on 30th if it's earlier it happens x

@Fluffkins14 I stopped testing, so I don’t have a clue if I ovulated or not or when af is due🤦‍♀️ Not stopped me symptom spotting though 🙄

How are you finding the TWW?

Morning girls,

@RobinRose how are you this morning? Did you carry on testing? Or stop in the end

I'm on the dreaded TWW is there any recommendation on what you really should or shouldn't do x

@NemoBear7 I fell in love with a ring I seen In a jeweller's window but thought nothing off it, so he went in the following week he went I with one of my rings and got it sized and all the details and has been saving up for it!

@MrsEmilyB He waited until my girls and his boys went to their dads/mums
I came home to a scavenger hunt with notes and he threw me completely off I had absolutely no idea!! And at the end when I opened our bedroom door her was down on one knee!! I just burst into tears a could barely hear what he was saying!! Lol but he recorded it all so we get to watch it back!! It was absolutely perfect ❤

Let me know when you do another as I like to follow your lovely news xx

@Sausage1990 that's exactly what made me test on Monday albeit it ended in CP or whatever today. Personally, I'm glad I knew I got a BFP as it's good to know that side of things are working. I'd test if I were you 😊🤞

@sausage1990, quite right, now, where did I put that crystal ball? Is it Tuesday?

NemoBear7 · 15/05/2020 21:11

@Franklydear Yeah, makes sense if you’ve had a lot of negatives before. Does sound like you have the correct symptoms for a BFP this month though. Really hope you get what you want! 😃🤞🏻

@Franklydear well that's fair too. Tbh like all things in life we all do whatever we can to manage & make the choices we're most comfortable with - it's all we can do 💕

@sausage1990 I don’t know, cp are horrible, but when I had a miscarriage a lifetime ago, I was quite glad I didn’t know I was pregnant, and hadn’t attach to the baby

@MrsEmilyB it is isn't it... What do you think?? I'm freaking out a tiny bit tbh

Report
Sausage1990 · 15/05/2020 20:52

@Franklydear I get you 100% and I'm with you in that...

I think my hesitation in waiting is I had a chemical in January and if I'd waited I would have missed the positive test and I just want to know if I'm having more chemical losses so I can see the GP... I don't know why I'm worrying as its only happened once but it plays on my mind.

I'm keeping everything from for us x

@NemoBear7 @sausage1990 I don’t want a bfn or a squinter, I want a clear blue line and then the words in the double checker, assuming af doesn’t come tomorrow...

This was my opk from 7.30pm this evening 😬😬😬 at 11dpo... I'm nervous that it's actually ovulation because of the abundance of watery/sometimes stretchy cm. What a roller coaster!

Sausage1990 · 15/05/2020 20:38

Omg @Franklydear we are experiencing such similar things... I'm like you I'm just trying to not get ahead of myself but it's so hard.

I'm 11dpo with wierd crampy belly, sore boobs on an off, headachey, lots of watery cm, sickly feeling on and off for the last 4 days 🤞🏻 I did an ic yesterday because I got impatient but it was negative so i'm going to wait until Sunday before thinking about testing again but I did do an opk after work today out of curiosity and it was really quite dark which has me feeling really confused and wishing I hadn't done it because now It's even harder to not get my hopes up.

This is going to be the longest few days 😬

Thanks everyone!

Big thank you! @Nicolet91 Did you get proposed to with a ring or do you get to pick one yourself?😁

@MrsEmilyB If I lived in that direction I would love to get married there but I’m in Greater Manchester so it would be a bit far for me!

My engagement story is pretty standard really. Down on one knee, as it should be done! 🥰

Please test soon @franklydear the suspense is killing me! Lol!
