@lucyrp that food does sound epic though! I haven't had a chicken Kiev in ages! X

@Vil10 that is a good effort! X

@KateColx I had the urge to POAS this morning I'm only 6/7 dpo so not acceptable at all but I had got to free one step ones with my frers so I decided to have a practice with one 'so I know what to do'🤣 kidding myself! 🤦🏼‍♀️ Stark white obvs but at this point it's deffo too early I just wanted to do something and since it was a freebie 🤷🏼‍♀️ tbf I was hopeful yesterday today I'm not so much feel like I'm imagining it x

@Ltay2 @KateColx the struggle is real I also yo-yo between wanting to lose weight and thinking what's the point when I'm TTC. I had all the plans of healthy eating during pregnancy but once those cravings kick in you'll turn into a monster if you don't get the food you want and trust me you won't care about calories when PG I put no weight on first trimester in fact it was going so well then got to 20 weeks and boom between them and the end 38lbs snook on! I did eat a lot of kfc and mr Kipling cakes 🤣x

@Ltay2 im 5'3 and size 12 and still classed as overweight on bmi I've not been in the normal category apart from when I starved myself for months before my wedding which is not sustainable. Bmi is flawed a lot of men are overweight or obese due to muscles and haven't got any fat on them. I do think some people are just heavier too bone density etc but they don't take any of that into consideration! I do need to not buy any more Oreo chocolate however 😬x

Minster2012 · 01/07/2020 07:25

Happy Super July Ladies! 🥰💕🌈

Sorry to hear the BFN @Madz123 that's rubbish, I'd def recommend the pineapple juice to increase ewcm it def has for me (ass fruit juice) I drink Tropicana golden ass fruit juice. I've done the seeds too as I don't mind doing natural things, it's all natural protein

@smileyT this was my first foray into Tony's, there may be other flavours being tested! I love that Boris analogy, & @Franklydear that's so funny yes would Nicola have a test date & not wavered? I'm not that political tbh so if I'm wrong someone tell me!!

@Amy00 good luck if testing & still more luck for @Ltay2

@Katao masses of luck for your presentation too lovely xxx

Minster2012 · 01/07/2020 07:33

@Cocoblue22 "now you know what to do" POAS love that. It's so true, I've not even ovulated FFS & I POAS the other day so work that one out 🤷‍♀️i wanted it to not be real then in my head I was like of course, but like you it was an IC cheapie with the OPKs so meh. Piss on the Oreo choc instead 😂🥰It might make you not want it again! (Probs not though)

@unluckyducky hey how are you?!

@skip86 have you abandoned us or was it that I outed you as a porn star?! How's the pigeon shit? We need house porn 😫

Katao · 01/07/2020 07:35

@KateColx I didn't test yet......
woke up feeling sick, peed in a pot, vomited , back in bed very much running the boris speech in my head. Hilarious @SmileyT!

blodyn91 · 01/07/2020 07:46

Love the Borris speech!

So bbt nightmare, OH alarm goes at 4:30am which is when I usually take it, I fell asleep with thermometer in my mouth 🙈 woke up with it bleeping. Temp very very low. Took it again at 7am with my alarm, way higher than usual. Another poor night sleep as well, I usually have no sleeping problems 😩 Think im thinking about BBT when I go to sleep or something as I keep waking up thinking 'take your temp!' obsession has fully kicked in

sorry about AF and 🤞 for those testing today

Katao · 01/07/2020 07:48

Trying to decide what will annoy me more, a negative/inclusive result or waiting another day. Was really hoping to fet to a point this cycle where I could test, accept the result and not obsess.
10dpo. I should add that unfortunately nausea/vomiting can be a pms symptom for me.

@Ltay2 oh sorry you have had such a stressy night. Good luck later.

@Madz123 sorry about the bfn

Happy July all!

Minster2012 · 01/07/2020 07:52

@Katao only you can answer the question of the annoyance issue, maybe test then order another test for 2 days time? AND NOT BEFORE

@blodyn91 could you not temp for a bit? It's not going to change ANY PG RESULT lovely this month I stopped as it was stressing me & affecting my sleep xxx

lucyrp · 01/07/2020 07:57

@blodyn91 I found it easy temping because I always need to get up and have a wee first thing in the morning but before I'd get out of bed I'd remember I'd need to temp and then trundle off to the loo to do my OPKs but if you're temping at like 4:30am it's probably a lot harder. I definitely wake up thinking TAKE YOUR TEMP

Vil10 · 01/07/2020 08:16

@KateColx good luck with the presentation!!

@Madz123 so sorry for BFN but it could still be too early! Not out yet🤞🏼

@SmileyT that Boris speech is so so true😂😂

@Cocoblue22 poas obsession is real!!

9dpo and nothing to report other than back ache!

blodyn91 · 01/07/2020 08:17

@Minster2012 @lucyrp up until this week its been totally fine. Think its because I know a temp drop will mean AF is coming. So Im obsessing about getting a results higher than my base line. Might actually not take it for a few days see if that helps, but thats a hard thing to not do 🙈 I also need to stop looking at houses before bed 🙈 and maybe read a book instead

Ltay2 · 01/07/2020 08:23

BFN this morning as expected. Feeling more positive than yesterday though about being into another new cycle. No more POAS for me just going to await AF arrival!

Amy00 · 01/07/2020 08:24

BFN today for me at 12 dpo so 99% out this month 😞

Onto cycle 3!

@Madz123 sorry to hear BFN for you as well.

We haven't kicked off the July very well for this board!!! But as a group we need 3 BFNs on average for every BFP right?? So just getting those BFNs out the way early to pace the way for all the blazing BFPs coming later!! 🥰

diamondbutterfly · 01/07/2020 08:26

Due date today, poas on a stick clear blue the one that says pregnant or not pregnant it was a BFP. Technically it has an expiration date/ best before 30 June 2020 would you trust it? Hmm

Amy00 · 01/07/2020 08:29

And @Ltay2 another BFN I'm sorry 😞

I shouldn't really have wasted a test as I have a massive temp drop today which is a massive AF signal!

blodyn91 · 01/07/2020 08:31

@Amy00 @Ltay2 so sorry about AF!

@dimondbutterfly congrats! How many dpo are you? I would probably go get another test for my own sanity 🙈 but its only a day out so probably right.

diamondbutterfly · 01/07/2020 08:36

Thank you @blodyn91 I’m not sure about dpo as I don’t track that but I have a 28 day cycle and Fitbit says I ov on 17june so day 14?

Franklydear · 01/07/2020 08:37

@dimondbutterfly congrats, I would have to test again, but my dh would tell you is just me being pedantic

SmileyT · 01/07/2020 08:38

@Madz123 stay positive my lovely... A/ you're definitely not out but maybe time to start focussing on a fresh new cycle, get some stuff in your amazon basket, some for ttc and something else that is random shit you want and click buy if AF shows up x

@unluckyducky how are you doing? Have you had an early scan? xx

@KateColx hope the presentation went well and you can relax more afterwards.

@lucyrp you'd hate my profile I've literally got nothing on there from the last 5years - you'd have to snoop out my insta, lot of half dressed pics on there but none of my Mr 😜 I've attached one of the only pics of us and you can't even see our faces 😂

@Newbie0818 my temp normally drops the day before or the day of AF, if spotting is the start of AF it's because of a drop in progesterone so in theory should mirror a slight drop in temp. Mine doesn't drop below coverline until AF day 2 I think x

@Ltay2 don't leave us waiting 🤞

Hi @JustMouse do you at least have a break in summer holidays? x

Boo @Amy00 still going to get another chance in July? x

Glad so many people enjoyed the Boris speech had to share it because it really made me laugh. And also anyone worried about BMI I wouldn't be bothered about that. I'm 5ft1 and I was classed as overweight when I was a size 8 and my friends thought I looked like a pea head 😂

I'm feeling positive enough for all of you today trust me it will happen for us all ❤️❤️❤️

@Franklydear I do plan to. I have ordered the clear blue the ones that say week which are due to arrive on Monday so I will have to wait until then.

FYI I have a slightly out of date preggo test from my daughter who is almost 13m born June 2019

SmileyT · 01/07/2020 08:40

@Ltay2 sorry hadn't seen your message by the time I'd written my essay. Sorry it was a BFN 😔 x

OP posts:
DKDK123 · 01/07/2020 08:42

@notyetamumbuttrying its number 2 for me, I have a 2year old son but it also took us just short of a year trying for him so im used to the waiting game. Fingers crossed for your BFP so you don't need to start cycle 11 too 🤞

@Ltay2 I'm with you on the trying to lose weight for the exact same reason, I know if I go to the GP for help they'll just say lose weight before they even start to explore anything else. Im 5"2 size 16 so I know I definitely need to lose weight but I also know far bigger than me still manage to get pregnant!

@Minster2012 Think im just going to try stay chilled again this cycle, might look into what foods to eat to lower estrogen/increase progesterone as I think I've got a bit of an imbalance looking at symptoms but I think keeping the stress levels down is definitely going to be my main aim and if we do go onto cycle 12 then I'll finally wave the white flag and go see the docs.

@SmileyT I think that definitely sums up the TWW perfectly 😂

Congratulations on the BFP @diamondbutterfly! Good way to kick off July, fingers crossed many more come rolling in! Good luck to all those testing this week, fingers crossed 🤞

Katao · 01/07/2020 08:44

After an hour of indecision I realized if I wanted to test I'd have done it already so flushed the fmu.
@Ltay2 and @Amy00 sorry about the bfns

@diamondbutterfly I'd consider it valid, I'd imagine their is a built in margin in a best before date on something like that. But get another one if you are doubtful. Congratulations though I think!

Vil10 · 01/07/2020 08:49

@Ltay2 ohh so sorry for BFN!! Could it still be too early? Glad you're feeling positive though!!

@Amy00 sorry for your BFN! It's such a shit feeling isn't it!! Sending your hugs x

@diamondbutterfly congratulations!!

diamondbutterfly · 01/07/2020 08:50

I’m sorry to those with BFN Flowers
Hopefully some more BFP are on the way

diamondbutterfly · 01/07/2020 08:51

Thank you @Vil10
