@SmileyT and @VP91x
Just bobbing in to say I can totally relate on the OH struggling to perform thing. I'm trying to be really cool and relaxed about it but it's so hard!
I do feel for him as I totally agree with everyone that has said they must feel so much pressure to finish. My OH is also totally full on with work, not to mention the added stresses of lockdown and us managing the kids full time while also working from home. He's so tired on a night once the kids are in bed so I'm spiriting him away during the day at any opportunity and that makes it hard to enjoy dtd for me even, let alone him...
Hope it helps to know others are going through the same xx

Jazper · 23/06/2020 18:25

Sorry AF got you @2020wish. Enjoy your movie night with your daughter ❤️

VP91x · 23/06/2020 19:10

@SmileyT ah I'm sorry this happened aswell to you today! Have you spoken to him this evening if you've had a chance? If he still wants to know what's going on in the cycle maybe you can compromise on what he actually gets to know. It must be playing on his mind more than he thinks. I hope he feels a bit better this evening and over the next few days. Sending you a big hug ❤️

@chloedancer897 dont use the full syringe Id go for a 1/4 at first. A little goes along way. @Eli2020 made me laugh that your OH wants to use it for donuts haha!!

@2020wish so sorry AF came, I hope you are okay xxx

@Diorissimo1985 how are you getting on?

@Bellabubble that's nice that your friend said that to you, my best friend has just always said the try not to think about it things and I've jusr decided not to mention anything because it frustrates me.

I agree with in running out of steam and will probably try the same approaxh next cycle if not successful. Will just dtd after peak opk or static for those few days and see if it helps!

@2020wish that sounds like a great evening with your daughter! Hope you both enjoy it ❤️

@Jazper it becomes so unromantic and forced doesn't it really. 😩 This is all so hard! How have you been getting on? Xx

Girls sorry I have been quiet. I'm 6 weeks pregnant today and scared out of my mind. Have been having cramping a lot and it just feels like it did when I miscarried. No bleeding yet, and I know that mild cramping is common in early pregnancy but I never had it with my healthy pregnancies, only the time I lost it. I'm just assuming the worst at this point.

@2020wish I'm sooo sorry AF arrived. Enjoy your mummy daughter evening. Thinking of doing something similar to get my mind off what's happening. Sad

SmileyT · 23/06/2020 19:37

@Wishingfornumber2 @HopeForRainbowbaby Both simple but could be very effective plans, it's funny when I'm in this ttc rabbit hole I miss the obvious things 🙈

@Jazper thanks for sharing definitely helps to know that it's not just me, we've had a good talk this evening with less emotions and just going to really dial down the pressure ☺️

@VP91x yeah feeling much better after having a really open conversation, he always wants to make me happy and I just think he knows too much, I kinda forgot mystery is good in a relationship 😂 so although he says he wants to know I'm going to stop giving him the blow by blow of each test/ temp etc. He has my ovulation date in his diary that's probably unnecessary so next month it'll be more casual. I didn't even do an opk today 🤯 how are you today? What was the activity of the day? Xx

@1990EM I know it's so easy for me to say but please try and stay positive there is no reason to think that this won't be a healthy pregnancy, even though a couple pregnancies may have been similar your body has changed and may be reacting differently to the little bean but doesn't have to be a bad thing xx

chloedancer897 · 23/06/2020 19:39

@1990EM ring the maternity unit and tell them what's happening

HopeForRainbowbaby · 23/06/2020 19:45

@1990EM do you have like midwife phone number to call and ask for reassurance ? Perhaps they will see you faster to check and give you piece on mind. Cramping is common but as long as there is not accompanied bleeding, you should not worry. And even if you have got bleeding, it is still high chance all is fine. Many woman would have still light "periods" in first two months of pregnancies. At least that's what I was told by midwife in both pregnancies.

VP91x · 23/06/2020 19:56

@1990EM I know how scared and worried you must be feeling right now but as the others said see if theres an EPU you can call. If theres no bleeding please try to rest. Hopefully all is okay and cramping is normal in most pregnancies. I really hope you're okay xxxx

@SmileyT I know what you mean, I always say like oh look at my line or it was a smiley face and he can tell I'm worried or temping etc.
I always forget that mystery is good too😂 your lives become so entertwined dont they? Funny that he has your O date in his diary. Bless him, at least he cares more I suppose. Lots for them to get their head around I suppose.

We just went to his mums house as his auntie had come down from Birmingham and we ordered a nandos for lunch and were in the garden! Meant to be a scorcher this week. Anything nice planned for your evening?

Jazper · 23/06/2020 20:22

It really does @VP91x
I'm getting on ok thank you. Got a flashy smilie yesterday so it was my second day of him today. CD 16 today and I got my static on CD 17 last month so 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
I'll let you know what tomorrow brings.

Glad you've talked it out @SmileyT and you're feeling better.

VP91x · 23/06/2020 20:31

@Jazper ahh that's good hopefully you get it on the same day again!! Glad you are well xx

Ah ladies completely not TTC chat but just outside the emergency vets because I think my cat might have a sprained or broken leg. Worried sick 😩 not ideal for a tuesday! Xx

OP posts:
HopeForRainbowbaby · 23/06/2020 21:24

@VP91x I'm sorry about cat ! Hopefully he or she is better and gets proper treatment at vet 😘

MichT4 · 23/06/2020 21:25

Evening ladies

I just had a wonderful day with my Mum. Just what I needed. Now watching Skyfall with eyes the size of raisins from hayfever 🙄

@1990EM like the girls say, please don’t panic. It’s probably just normal pregnancy cramping. Make sure you relax and rest and id definitely call your EPU or doctor tomorrow.

@2020wish sorry AF came. I hope you’re ok and treating yourself this evening

xx

VP91x · 23/06/2020 21:32

Interesting, the vet asked me if my cat could be pregnant because they are induced ovulaters so any chance she would meet a male whilst in heat 100% she would get pregnant. I mean, can we be cats!?, 😩😂

OP posts:
MichT4 · 23/06/2020 21:33

@VP91x I am sorry about your cat, but 😂😂😂 at us being jealous of cats now

1990EM · 23/06/2020 21:36

Thanks girls will phone EPU in the morning but I'm expecting them to not be able to do much, since I'm so early you wouldn't see much on a scan yet. Haven't had a booking in yet so haven't been allocated a midwife or anything. Think the best thing to do tonight is get an early night and try to rest! Thanks so much for caring

SmileyT · 23/06/2020 21:45

@VP91x yeah I definitely forget that as much as he asks he probably doesn't want to hear about every wee I have 😂 weather was so nice today wish I wasn't at work, I miss nandos used to love a cheeky nandos on a Friday lunchtime.... ahh just read about your cat, hope they are okay, imagine if she was pregnant, what are the bloody chances xx

Wishingfornumber2 · 23/06/2020 21:50

@VP91x oh no hope your cat is ok? But yes to be as easy to get pregnant like a cat! X

VP91x · 23/06/2020 21:54

@MichT4 @SmileyT honestly if my cat was pregnant and I'm not then, that's just cruel haha 😂

I know yeah, I tell my partner loads too he definitely doesn't need to know about my CM or anything. But hey, they gotta love us at our worst right? Haha. Looove a Nandos. Although I've got such a craving for Thai from Busaba if you've been before x

@1990EM keep us updated ans definitely early night and rest xx

OP posts:
MichT4 · 23/06/2020 21:59

@VP91x I love Busaba. I also love Nando’s 😋

VP91x · 23/06/2020 22:10

@MichT4 isn't it yummm? 😍
@Wishingfornumber2 thank you, keeping her overnight to see if she gets any better, if not then sedation and xrays 😩

OP posts:
2020wish · 23/06/2020 22:56

@1990EM rest up and take it easy. Cramps are completely normal and could be nothing . Keep us updated in the morning or through the night if ur awake

@vp91x I think my cat is pregnant also :( jealous much

Ladies we have done it and broke the news to my daughter. She took it really bad and cried so hard. I’m so gutted, giving her loads of love the next few days

VP91x · 23/06/2020 23:14

Ah @2020wish I'm so sorry you had to have that conversation with your daughter. Really hope you will both be okay soon. ❤️

Rainbowhope11 · 24/06/2020 04:12

Hey @VP91x hope your kitty is okay? How are you feeling otherwise? I haven't been on here in a while, between struggling to fall asleep and work being super crazy, I haven't even had a chance to catch up with MN.

Ladies, I'm feeling like I'm losing hope a bit. After my Hcg dropped and I got my CB peak about two-ish weeks ago, I have no symptoms at all, bfn, and no sign of AF. I'm starting to worry that my cycles are completely out of whack, which makes me sad because I have fewer chances of falling pregnant if my cycle doesn't get back to normal. I was so optimistic the other week, but now I feel like I'm just back at square one.

I started taking Pregnitude. My cousin told me about it and I felt like it can't hurt. It's supposed to regulate the menstrual cycle and regulate ovulation. I'm hoping it does something. Anyone else on here struggling with getting back to normal? Or any tips that you can share with me? I'd really appreciate anything you have ladies, I'm starting to feel a little desperate and I can see that DH is starting to shut off as soon as I have a worried look on my face. He's been such a trooper these past couple months, but I can see it's taking a toll on him 😢
