@Vil10 this is all sounding really positive 🥰

@Amy00 just remember you are not letting anyone down, people around you want you to get pregnant and have a family because they know how great you'll be at it. They will be disappointed for you but definitely not disappointed in you.

As I'm sure you can all tell I'm a complete chatterbox so I've told anyone that will listen that I'm ttc, although if I actually get pregnant I probably won't tell anyone until 20weeks 😂

@SmileyT I told my friend thats pregnant that we are ttc. If it does happen I told dh I'm telling feck all. My sister, my friend that's expecting and feck all else till well into it. Even at that I wont be putting anything on facebook and hopefully popping it out and people going wtf 😂😂 because I'm overweight and losing weight, coming into winter with baggy clothes = sorted lol
Wishful thinking I suppose

@2alreadywantanother I haven't told anyone yet, probably cos they are going to say I am mad, if it happens I already told dh is not going on Facebook, if you don't see me, you don't need to know, last time I didn't look pregnant until 7 months gone, ds insisted on being sideways making me look fat, even back then was a difficult child...

@Franklydear best way. It will fly then. That's my plan anyway. Give them something to talk about lol

Juno231 · 01/07/2020 16:12

@smileyt haha I'm the same! Most of my friends know, although I haven't told my family about it because they annoy me so much with their pestering. I'd probably tell my close friends straight away about the BFP but again will wait to tell family until first trimester is done!

The interesting part will be my OH... he doesn't really speak much to his parents so I'm not sure how long it will take him to break the news to them! I imagine I'd rock up at his dad's house and they'll realise when I'm not drinking or because I have a bump! Then his dad will let OH's mum know as she lives in Dubai lol...

@Juno231 I have a very strained relationship with my mum, we do talk a fair amount but she is just a busy body and I have no desire for her to pass judgement on what I'm inevitably doing wrong. First time she saw me after lockdown her first comment was 'how have you been leaving the house with your hair looking so awful' it did look awful but still 😂 and OHs mum would be round every two minutes with random bits of shit we don't want - when we went on holiday she painted our front door (really badly) without even asking, always trying to help but normally a well meaning nuisance 🙈 the day after I told my best friends last time I MC so I'll probably be superstitious about when I do it x

@2alreadywantanother @Franklydear yeah I live the idea of just surprising everyone with a baby x

@Ltay2 I really like them, they are pricey but I think it's worth it to not obsess over the lines (because I would fully become obsessed)

So I've just had brown CM when wiping 🤔 I've been feeling crampy/pains since the weekend but checking back through my notes I had spotting at 5DPO last month soo maybe just ovulation spotting but a bit delayed this month? I'm 8DPO. I got a bit excited but then checking my notes it's probably a sign that it's the same as last month 😩 x

@SmileyT your OH mum sounds like my OH mum, so bloody annoying at times, like we came back from holiday and she had done our d
side garden up (but had acctually dug up an thrown away my fave shrub 🙈)

@Newbie0818 omg that bbt chart is goals! Still hight at 13dpo 🤞🤞🤞

@Amy00 same! I went back to my parents and didn't really drink on the friday night, next thing on Sat I get cornered by mam 'so you thinking of babies?' I just said coroa had screwed our plans up, no idea what we are doing

blodyn91 · 01/07/2020 16:48

@KateColx possibly implantation? 8dpo makes more sense than 5dpo.... 🤞🤞🤞

Newbie0818 · 01/07/2020 16:56

@Juno231 well no af yet but I feel like it's coming soon as I've been spotting a little bit since yesterday. Nothing too bad and no cramps, which is odd, but not looking great :/

@blodyn91 really? Haha I feel like it's like Rocky Mountains but I must say at least it's staying up for now. Just hope this spotting goes away and nothing happens after!

@smileyt omg i think i'd strangle both of your mums! the door thing would have given me an aneurysm. My mum likes to comment like that on me too. It's mainly my dad that has been difficult about TTC though as I don't think he has a clue it could take longer than one BD to make a baby. He's been asking for years and made a snide comment the other month about how we're on lockdown so he's expecting a grandchild by the end of the year. When I visited my cousin at xmas (who has a baby) his wife said how every time my dad visits them he complains about how he cannot understand why I don't have kids yet and "what is she waiting for". Even though in the past I've told him there is NO good time to ask anyone when they're gonna have a baby as either they don't want one right now and they don't have to justify themselves to him, or they've been unsuccessful so far and he's being a douche for asking.

KateColx · 01/07/2020 17:06

@Ltay2 buy yourself the CB tests along with something else you've had your eye on, I always treat myself if it's a BFN 😂 any excuse x

@blodyn91 oh I hope so 😩 I've just been working it out and last month the spotting was 11 days before predicted AF and this month it's 7 days before predicted AF which is better for implantation but I don't want to feel like I'm clutching at straws 🙈

@SmileyT a well meaning nuisance made me laugh 😂 my dad sounds like your Mum though, he lovveesss a comment about my fake tan every time I see him 😂 just let me live my best Orange life hun.

SmileyT · 01/07/2020 17:07

@KateColx could definitely be implantation 🤞

@blodyn91 yeah she is very sweet and always trying to help but does my OHs head in because she'll forget to pay her gas bill but will buy us stuff we don't need or want 🙈

@Juno231 oh that is really tough, you'd think in the 21st century people would be a little more self aware ffs. My mum has a portrait of my whole family (like 20 of us from a cruise) with my ex in it, she said she would only get him photoshopped out if I have a child, I just have to laugh with her or I'll cry 😭

@SmileyT @KateColx I'm with you on the mum thing mines a hit like that. Everytime I get a new tattoo or piercing or change my hair she has a negative comment. Especially about my lashes she always jokes she could sweep the floor with them and I'm like shut up 🙄

Ladies I literally feel as sick as a dog! I've just had my tea and feel so nauseas and keep going a bit dizzy too! Hope it's a good sign otherwise I've just eaten something dodgy!!

Need to catch up on all the messages from today.....

@Juno231 gawd that really sucks about the couple I'm sorry 😖😟

@vil10 so hoping the sore nips are a sign, what part of super weekend are you testing 🤞🏻

@smileyT the bars don't last long here, I've not tried the seasalt it's on my list 🤔

@Amy00 sometimes I don't think it's a bad thing to say you are TTC to close family as it can actually make them be quiet & not ask it's all down to personal situation

Can I ask about AF/PMS /nausea - what is PMS & can it/when does it cause nausea? Asking for a friend

Cocoblue22 · 01/07/2020 18:30

@vil10 sounds very promising when are you testing? X

@Amy00 Wowzers that a lot of supplements! No one can say you haven't explored everything that's for sure! 🤞🏻 July is your month! X

@Franklydear it sounds like you're doing an amazing job with your son! That head teacher is correct! X

@KateColx at 8dpo could be a good sign of implantation bleeding? Best orange life made me laugh 🤣 x

@cocoblue22. I hope so, sadly is one of those that seems nothing is ever enough, he did such a good job catching up in the last year, he went from 3 years behind to nearly even with his peers, I am afraid to step back again, we also had a great routine and managed to make a new friend on his own, not the son of a mummy friend, and to improve two existing friendships, I know it doesn't sound so extraordinary but is massive for us

Cocoblue22 · 01/07/2020 20:09

@Franklydear it does it sounds bloody amazing your son sounds like such a determined boy....must get that off his mama. You're doing a great job and if he does fall a bit behind because of the lockdown you'll soon make it up at the end of the day his happiness (and yours) comes first in this situation and he must be finding it hard being out of his usual routine. You should be proud of everything he has achieved because it's your love and encouragement that has helped him to make that progress you sound like you're really acing it x
