@Cocoblue22 @Vil10 my OH is lush with kids too makes my heart melt 😍😍

PirateWeasel · 30/05/2020 17:08

Hello everyone! 4dpo here, on cycle 2. Crossing everything. I think we caught ovulation this time but only time will tell! Just had ONE glass of wine and feeling completely wasted. Probably just as well if I have to lay off the booze for 9 months if there's a BFP on the way...I clearly can't handle it! 🤣🍸

KateColx · 30/05/2020 17:10

Hi ladies,

Sorry I've been quiet on here, works been busy and I've been enjoying the sunshine in the garden where I can ☀️

Eeek how exciting that we're starting to see some early BFPs on here?! 😍😍 Fingers crossed we start to see some more soon ☺️☺️

@lucyrp I think we're all invested in your testing haha!! No pressure though 😅💛

7DPO here today and not feeling any different after the slight brown spotting and cramp type feelings the other day. I looked back in April's notes and I had spotting around the same time then but it was pink opposed to brown, so I don't think it's too much to read into sadly.

Hope you're all enjoying the sun today x

WildButterfly · 30/05/2020 17:12

Hey @Minster2012, hope you’ve been well! Definitely there when I wake up, yesterday it was quite bad in the afternoon whilst I was having a zoom work meeting 🙄, it’s been lingering most of the day today too. Had nuts and cheese for lunch as I didn’t really fancy much else. Let’s see how the bbq goes! 😂 Could be progesterone rise before AF or.. something else! 🤷🏻‍♀️we shall wait and see! 🤞🏻

Mococo1 · 30/05/2020 17:19

Ahh just got my high LH reading so assume peak will be tonight/tomorrow and app says 2days till ovulation 🤞🏽also oh my gosh I have forgotten how wet you get around ovulation time when you're not on contraceptives 😂 my downstairs is absolutely manic 😭 hope everyone is having a lovely day in the sun with their bbqs 🥰

lucyrp · 30/05/2020 17:35

@KateColx I am feeling the pressure like no tomorrow 😂🙈

@Mococo1 yesss! I hadn't actually realised it was since coming off contraception I was getting so wet but oh my god I know what you mean 😂

Bear127 · 30/05/2020 17:49

@Mococo1 OMG yes I’m with you on that one! 😂 Like Niagra Falls down there 💦😂😩 Even my OH commented this morning when I was ‘ready’ immediately after waking up 🙈

KRK05 · 30/05/2020 17:51

@SmileyT I totally agree I take everything with a pinch of salt I think, I'm more prepare myself for the worst type of person I dont get disappointed quite hard headed that way 🙈😂 next cycle I'm definitely gonna temp cause it's what I needed this cycle, there was just no point cause I missed 3 days but need to see ovulation actually confirmed & il pay for it from Femometer.

@lucyrp Awwww no pressure, u test when your ready 🤞🏻💕

@KateColx That's the exact reason I've taken notes this cycle so I can compare in future ones. Still fingers crossed though 🤞🏻❤ I have no symptoms what so ever but then it's not normal to really feel symptoms until after your late on AF is just cause were all symptom spotting cause we are more aware 🤷🏼‍♀️ So no symptoms isnt always bad, anytime I've been pregnant I've never had any symptoms. I went a whole 9 month & the only thing I had was kicking & a bump none of the usual pregnancy symptoms. Didnt even have sore nipples until AFTER I'd given birth 🙈

Also feels weird with our usual first message from @Skip86 hope your having an amazing time lovely 🥳❤

& definitely agree men who are great with kids are 100000% more attractive , such a turn on 😍

Minster2012 · 30/05/2020 17:52

@WildButterfly I suppose could be hormonal, have you been TTC for long?

@lucyrp are you going to test tomorrow?

We have had some lovely new garden furniture delivered today so we’ve built that & sat on it a while! Now we’ve have come out for a bike ride to a meadow near us with picnic for DS which is idyllic

lucyrp · 30/05/2020 18:12

@Minster2012 no not tomorrow I don't think🙈

Mococo1 · 30/05/2020 18:13

@bear127 DH said exactly the same thing to me last night 😂 he was like what already? Wow hahahaha. Niagra falllls had me laughing so much but yes pretty much a waterfall down there, I love how there is no such thing as tmi on this thread🤣🤣🤣😂

notyetamumbuttrying · 30/05/2020 18:21

Hi everyone! Had a lovely social distant picnic with my family today! I cried when I saw my mum 😢 was so lovely sat in the sun and catching up properly. My nephew was there too and my pregnant sister, she's due in August so that was chatted about and I was so grateful that know one said to me and hubs, when are you having one! My mum must have told my dad not to mention it as he's a classic for putting his feet in it! My friend called me just before we left to tell me she was pregnant after two cycles! She's due in November alongside my other mate. I have about 8 women having babies between July and December this year! I want to get my bfp so bad 😫😣

TheGirlWhoLived · 30/05/2020 18:23

Excited for everyone getting their game ON in fertile week, and moving towards TWW... anyone else in the “Drink till it’s pink” brigade? I’ve been enjoying too much sunshine prosecco and I know this could be my last months/few months before next LO is on the way! Felt like AF was coming on today- I’m still very bloated and absolutely KNACKERED all the time! Boobs were tender as well this morning so hope Monday brings good vibes - just bought myself the clear blue triple check and have one FRER left so will FRER and then clear blue until I think it’s a line (optimistic) then digital it!

Really excited for @RiverRoo and @slimshadyscousin and anyone else I’ve missed! Love reading the chat, might have to love to a boring one if this af comes on soon!

Ltay2 · 30/05/2020 18:25

So there is hope for me for July bus yet was thinking we would be out until at least August) 🤞🏼 OH announced today he feels he will most likely be ready to have sex again in a couple of weeks as he's feeling so much better now. That would be perfect timing as 2 weeks today would mark the start of my FW! Not going to pin my hopes on it as we don't know exactly how he will feel but it's good to know that we aren't for certain out for another month. 🙌🏼 I meannn by that point it will be 8.5 weeks of abstinence so surely his swimmers will be in fighting form if nothing else 🤷🏼‍♀️

notyetamumbuttrying · 30/05/2020 18:30

When you testing @TheGirlWhoLived I thought u were today?! I'm a drink until it's pink kinda girl. After nearly 9 months of trying, I couldn't have not drunk for all that time!
Glad he's on the mend @Ltay2 and his swimmers will be raring to go!!

TheGirlWhoLived · 30/05/2020 18:44

Haha @notyetamumbuttrying we were 2.5 years before we fell pg with #3 (ended in MMC) - can you imagine being sober for 2.5 years!? I think not...

Vil10 · 30/05/2020 18:45

@TheGirlWhoLived when I first came off the pill I kept saying to myself “no way will I drink in the TWW just in case” and I genuinely didn’t until I realised how stupid it was because we had no idea on my cycles for the first few months and turned out we weren’t even having sex in my most fertile days for March and April, so I was just staying sober for no reason😂 but I’m currently 6dpo and going to enjoy a lovely ice cold cider tonight and probs a bottle of lemon gin tomorrow, my friends a midwife and drank a lot during her TWW and her baby is amazing, and I know so many people who have done the same! After all it could be the last time you drink for a while so enjoy yourself pour a pint of wine!x

TheGirlWhoLived · 30/05/2020 18:47

I tested yesterday (29th) and Wednesday (27th) but nothing on either... should be due AF 31st according to ovia but I tend to have notoriously late ovulation (if any)

To be honest AF in the next week wouldn’t be awful because at least it would mean the inofolic is doing it’s job and getting on top of PCOS! I’m getting more and more symptoms so I’m probably just talking myself into it. Will. Test on Monday next

Minster2012 · 30/05/2020 18:48

@notyetamumbuttrying that sounds lovely and totally know what you mean about the pregnancies, we were like that

@TheGirlWhoLived definitely drink til the line turns pink here!

Let me tell you about a lady who was on a thread I was on in Feb who actually made me leave the thread I couldn’t bear what she was saying, it was a TTC bus just like this bear in mind, she was “asking for advice” but saying “oh my god ladies so I’ve just found out I’m pregnant, total shock but DH & I are in a good position, married 2 years, want a baby but I’ve been drunk for the last 3 weekends, hen parties & parties, so I’m not sure I should continue it, I’m prob bout 5.5/ 6 weeks, because in case I’ve done damage to the baby. I’m really worried. Maybe I should stop it & then start vitamins in day 6 months, eat healthy, seeds, nuts etc & then try I’m really worried I would cause problems for the baby’s brain etc.”. We were all saying don’t worry most ppl don’t find out IRL unless actively trying until that stage. If you want a baby & are stable then it’s fine, maybe get a midwife appointment talk to them & see how you feel. She then said she’d spoken to 2 top gynae doctors & they were trying to reassure her it was fine but she still kept posting saying post after post of “I’m not sure, maybe I need to flush my system & eat healthy”

I almost felt the need to strangle her, I did say “what if you don’t then find it easy to conceive? There are ppl on the thread who have been trying for a long time” It made me so mad 😡

So anyway, she says that pouring a glass of wine Cos it’s fine 😋

TheGirlWhoLived · 30/05/2020 18:49

Fresh sheets and Prosecco, favourite kind of saturdays!

@juno321 Uea I ovulated a day later than expected so now currently 2DPO! Still testing on the 10th though!

SmileyT · 30/05/2020 18:52

Evening ladies...

@WildButterfly hope the queasy feeling subsides a bit for you and you enjoy the bbq

@Vil10 I noted loads of creamy CM about 6dpo last cycle I think it's because progesterone peaks in middle of TWW, mine kinda dried up towards my period but think it's a good sign if it increases as it means progesterone is still increasing 🤞

@KateColx hope you had a break from work and more time in the sun today 😎

@KRK05 yeah and it'll still detect ovulation from temps on free app but more fun getting the analysis xx

@notyetamumbuttrying ahh I've been wondering how you've been getting on... sounds like a nice day but can see why it's emotional, I haven't seen my little nephews in nearly 3 months 😭😭 really hope this is your month after the last 9 of trying xx

@TheGirlWhoLived I love how prepared you are with the testing, before I joined MN I thought people just took one test and that was it, I've had the triple check in my drawer for 2 months hope I get to try it out this month x

My friend is coming round for a doorstep wine tonight to kick off the TWW - Also chucked ground sesame seeds over my dinner to help with the implantation (every little helps right 😂)

LOVE the 'drink till it's pink' saying! I'm not going overboard but a cheeky cocktail or cider just goes hand in hand with this sunshine!

LV1987 · 30/05/2020 18:55

That would make me mad too @Minster2012... There is definitely a big difference between having a drink during the TWW and being alcohol dependent - and it's the latter that tends to cause issues with babies. Sounds like that lady needs a reality check!

I have a cold bottle of Corona with me right now. I'm just disappointed that Sainsburys could not fulfil my gin order!

SmileyT · 30/05/2020 18:56

Cheers to the mutha fucking weekend ladies 🥂 🥂 🥂
