I've tried to keep up with changes in testing dates but feel free to shout at me if they are wrong 🙈 July we will hit 25% so who will be the lucky 10 ☺️

@Katao I can't quite see anything on there but you could still be too early!! You're not out until af arrives! When are you due??x

@lucie91 did you test this morning?

@Katao 1st look I'd def say I saw a faint, but in 2nd look cant see it. Strange. Give another few days and text again x

Has anyone ever used these easy@home pregnancy tests before? Not sure how sensitive they are? I purposely didn't get any frer in so I wouldn't be too tempted to test, but I got these ones in my box of opks!

@Cocoblue22 I totally feel you 😂 that's why I had to go and fill the thread up as when it has less than 1000 I think people will post and then I'll never be able to respond and they'll feel bad (I'm an inclusion advocate at work so hate when I think somebody will feel ignored or left out - very sad I know) x

@Cocoblue22 @Juno231 @Vil10 yeah I've never even considered ttc before this year so guess there is still loads to learn, with BA you can cancel up to 3 days before you fly I think so I'll cross that bridge when/ if I actually get pregnant, be a double blow if I cancelled then wasn't preggers in November. If I am before then I'll speak to the Dr/ midwife and see what they say x

@notyetamumbuttrying he actually does Judo, was a reserve at the 1984 olympics randomly 🤷🏾‍♀️

@Katao will definitely be stronger in the morning if you see a pink line today 🤞

Morning ladies way too many messages to catch up on! Marking my place on this bus hope you're all well managed to DTD last night so I'm happy lol x

@Katao the struggle is real to not POAS I get that I'm so impatient I want to know now and in reality I'm probably only 7dpo so it's far too early boo x

Thanks @Minster2012 & @Juno231, hopefully mines a shit one 😂😩🙏

I dunno why i do it to myself! Both boys ive had to wait til like 5 days after AF due to even get a line! I guess its just wishful thinking..

@Juno231 I'm glad it's not just me phew! I believe @Lucie91 already got BFP on her would be wedding date so hopefully all is progressing nicely for her x

@SmileyT glad you are the same! You're such a lovely person making sure everyone is on board and no one left behind. And your organisation 😇 you are deffo my kinda person! X

@SmileyT @Juno231 @Vil10 our is with Tui and I think if we had to cancel we would loose our deposit which would be a shame. I think if you rearrange it it's classes as a cancellation too so you lose the deposit but after mentioning it a few threads ago I feel like we should take everyone's advice and cross that bridge when we come to it. I would take baby with us that wouldn't require much to add them on as under 2s are free and don't require an extra seat etc or I would go under 6 months PG but I wouldn't want to travel between 6-9 months PG and prob wouldn't be allowed to anyway and would need to get the all clear from 6 week post c sec check to be able to travel. So I think that means if it happens before Oct it's fine or any time after Feb but if it was between Oct and Feb we would have to look into cancelling or rearranging but that's a long time off yet so not worth worrying about too much. So I wouldn't decide just yet as you don't know what's going to happen in between x

@Braxos I'd just ignore it if you know from previous its after af you get BFP I wouldn't worry you may be a slower riser on the hcg levels as everyone is different x

@Cocoblue22 ah I completely forgot about that @lucie91 - how crap of me! Any updates though? Hope it's all good!

I've definitely gotten to that extra frustrating part of the TWW where testing day feels bloody ages away but my patience has worn thin. I keep checking my FF chart as if it's going to yield something new!

Just wondering if I can hop on the July bus with you guys? AF due 9/10 July. Cycles are about 35 days over the last few months so my fertile window was last week. DTD a few times so fingers crossed!

@Cocoblue22 yeah we're booked with Tui and when I looked online it said you could cancel 12 weeks before and just lose the deposit! So we wouldn't mind too much! But we'll just see what the situation is when we conceive!x

@mumof23188 yes! I get every symptom under the sun lol and horrendous pms most times so I can never play symptom spotting cos it's always AF! Oh I see, hope they settle bk down once your hormones go bk to normal.
@Cocoblue22 I'm like this too lol! I hate it not filling up, seems wasteful to me 😂
@Vil10 is this about zika? It's not in Barbados. I have family there and everyone's good. So don't worry @SmileyT if that's where you're planning on going. We've not rebooked yet as was due to go in March as you might remember me saying before. Gonna wait and see if/when I ever get pregnant. Oh judo you say, cool! Great achievement with the Olympics reserve team too! 💪🏾

@notyetamumbuttrying I’m the same! I also get the most awful aching pain downstairs 😩 feels like I’ve been booted! When are you testing? Thank you, I’ve had 36 days, 31 and 28 so hopefully will settle soon.

@Juno231that is super interesting. When are you testing?

Thanks for your input everyone! I'll just have to wait and see. I may be trying to magic up a line 🙃 wondering if it is where the line would be that I'm looking at, iykwim where the chemicals are imbedded. I mean in reality there is always 'something' there. I'm like you @2alreadywantanother now i see it, now i dont 😂
Hi @Butterbean11 welcome 🖐

@Butterbean11 snap. Af due the 9th. Hoping to text on the 6th and not b4 it 🙈

Morningggg gals!

I've treated myself to a trip into the office today to get away from my dining table 😅😂 so just catching up now.

CD9 over herreee 🙋🏼‍♀️ Sooo my boobs are sore to touch but less so than last night, and crampy feelings are still here (feels like the day before AF arrives) no more spotting since yesterday. Hoping for good signs rather than AF making a very early appearance.

I was tempted to waste a FRER this morning but remembered this little pic and decided against it! X

@Vil10 sounds like good signs Mrs! When is AF predicted for you? X

@SmileyT haha perhaps all you've needed all along is a concoction of dick 🍆 pizza 🍕 and chocolate 🍫 to get things going 🤞🏻😂 I love that you're an inclusion advocate, kind people are the best people 🥰

@Katao I had a squintier a couple of months ago and I couldn't get it on camera well either 😂 fingers crossed it's darker in a couple of days time 🤞🏻 some people don't even get any line until after AF is due so dont count yourself out 🥰 x

Welcome @Butterbean11 🙋🏼‍♀️the thread moves quickly so jump straight in ☺️ what cycle is this for you? X

Right better go do some actual work x

Holy shit I miss one day and you move on 11 pages 🤣 those of you that reply individually to people how do you do it?!
In my head I started replying about things like obesity (I'm in that club too) , and then Dogging tales (hilarious! Terry getting a limp hand job in the woods 🤣) and then the conversation moves on and I forget everything!
Haven't even started reading all the pages on this thread yet but I'm hoping there's some good news by the end x

@SarahTTC2020. I reply to what I can remember and if luckily only a few messages since I last read, the obesity I missed completely, I read it, but that is all, on that note I do need to lose quite a bit of weight, I was doing well after Xmas, but lockdown doesn't help me,

@Katao I don't see anything either but text in a few days. I got a negative at 11dpo but a positive at 13dpo before my CP so you're not out yet 😊

I however am out unfortunately 😔 af has arrived this morning to my great disappointment. However on a positive at least my cycle was 36days which means its hopefully back on track to being shorter and more regular xx

@SarahTTC2020 dang you've reminded me that i need to get back on the weightloss wagon. I lost 4kg at the start of lockdown but completely stalled after that!

@mumof23188 I want to hold off until 12DPO so I think that's the 7th!

@Butterbean11 welcome! What cycle is this for you? TTC#1?

I feel a sad. I know 7 months isn't long in the grand scheme of things but God it feels so long. And I'm feeling so fed up. Why won't by body do what's its "supposed" to do?
This journey is brutal 😢☹️

@SarahTTC2020 I know, back and fort checked I'm tagging the right person lol it's so easy to get lost when it's so busy on this thread.

@Sausage1990 story to hear af arrived 😥 it is a brutal journey for some unfortunately please god it happens soon for everyone

@sausage1990 I feel you, I'm on the cusp of 7 too :( doesn't help that everyone I know IRL gets pregnant on the first go! A while back I asked one of my colleagues how many cycles it took her and she didn't even know what I meant by that lol. Another friend of mine (although why I'm friends with her is a mystery) insists she was trying hard for a baby when in reality she got pregnant on cycle 2 and never even had to check when she ovulated and didn't even know you could test before AF. Basically they've all been blissfully unaware of all this stress and TTC malarkey cause they never had to look into it as they're super lucky!
