If anyone else would like to join please do xx

@MichT4 I know and a good amount which obviously warranted a pic. I reckon the EPO is doing its job. He was so disgusted 😂😂😂 better try and seduce him somehow tonight. X

@Northernsoul90 really wishing you luck for your bloods tomorrow. I have my fingers tightly crossed for you that they come up clear so you know ovulation is imminent and you can start again. Will be checking on here to see how you've got on xx

@fafi and @CasperFlamingo , it's amazing to hear you say you were chill about ttc prior to mc! I was exactly the same and neither me, nor my OH can figure out why it's become all consuming for me since the mc!

Thank you so much @VP91x ❤️wondered where you were today but you sound like you've had a lovely day! ☺️ Don't suffer alone on Friday. We are all here for you xx

@SmileyT doesn't make you sound like a bad person at all. We all get it. I am hoping so hard for you that you get your positive tomorrow which will make it all much easier to handle 🤞🏼

@VP91x I'm so friggin' jealous of your EWCM 😂😂😂 I drank gallons of that stinkin' grapefruit juice last cycle and didn't even see a smidgen of egg white! 😩

@Jazper oh no!! I'm drinking like two/three glasses of it a day because I genuinely like it. Also this month I've been taking 3000mg of evening primrose oil tablets as I took soy isoflavones this month and it is meant to dry you up so I thought I'd try anything to help. Seems to have done the trick.

Do you check internally because sometimes it is not always there when you wipe?

And thank you, really means alot ❤️ xx

@MichT4 what's hubby cooking you? My OH got in and was like 'I need a takeaway' 🙄 by the time I'll get preggers nobody will even be able to tell whether it's a food baby or an actual baby 😂

@VP91x yeah I once made the mistake of actually showing DP we did not DTD that night 🤦🏾‍♀️ well if you do want to vent on the day then you know where I am x

@Jazper thanks for being so kind, how are you feeling this evening? xx

@elliew818 are you still planning on testing in the morning? x

@SmileyT he wanted dominos and I was tempted by a Chinese. But we are having southern fried chicken and chips. So a bit of a middle ground

What take away did you go for? xx

@Mommybear05 the CB one is good, at least there is no guessing because when you get the static you know ovulation is going to happen soon after. X

@VP91x I’m the same, prefer to be sad and cry on my own. I have done frustrated anger crying to my OH before. As the others have said we are here for you to write down your sadness. Sorry that made me laugh you saying about your OH being disgusted. If only they knew the half of what we did and looked at 😂. X

@SmileyT why do we do these things? 😂😂 Especially when you need them to put out, haha. Thank you so much ❤️

Ooh what takeaway are you getting? OH kept going on about maccies today but I made lentil bolognese for dinner, how boring! X

Thank you @Jazper that means a lot 🥰 I will post update on here xx

No they didn’t @VP91x they just said a blood test but I might mention it! You know where we all are if you need to let it out/vent that day and we’ll all be thinking of you xx

@SmileyT you definitely don’t sound like a bad person, it’s totally understandable and I would and have/do feel the same. I have everything crossed for you for tomorrow 🤞🏼🤞🏼 xxx

Thank you @ManchNic it really is very frustrating and you’re just willing your body to get back to normal. Xx

@Wishingfornumber2 I've done that too and I just end up taking it out on him! I know, we look and see wayyy more than we should look for - they'd never go near us if the knew all🤣

@Northernsoul90 yeah definitely ask! Especially if you are worried.

Thank you both aswell 💕💕

Hi Ladies, hope your all doing well! I've had some pinching and pulling sensations today along with CM (I usually dont get much through my cycle) I'm 5dpo, has anyone any thoughts on this??

Symptom spotting in the ttw 🙄 driving myself mad!!

I've checked internally a lot this cycle but more for cervical position post ovulation. Perhaps that's why I haven't seen any.

I've got a funny relationship with evening primrose oil. I was taking it for my skin prior to ttc last time. When we started ttc I continued to take it up to ovulation. When nothing happened for the first three months, I decided - having conceived my first three children with ease and without taking any supplements - to stop with the EPO all together and I caught on that very month. I'm sure it was just coincidence, or perhaps I just wasn't overthinking everything and so was more relaxed. But I'm in two minds as to whether to start up with it again or not 🤯

Thank you for asking @SmileyT . I'm feeling a little more relaxed this evening. Had a chat with the OH and it always makes me feel better. We think I should try not using OPK's for a couple of months but whether or not that actually happens is another story 😂 it's like, I knew I shouldn't test at 10dpo midday but I went ahead and did it anyway 🙈🤣

@VP91x see below 😂 keep forgetting to tag you x

My TWW has begun! How do you ladies get through it? I find it so unbelievably tough as I symptom spot the entire time, day in day out 😫 I know it's daft because symptoms can change with each pregnancy. HELP!

@Rebecca1992 me too! I'm 4DPO and was wakened through the night with sharp lower abdo pain. I doubt it's anything significant for me. It's too early.

@chloedancer897 I think we torture ourselves symptom spotting! 😪 the waiting is just so hard, maybe even more so for me this time as it's my first cycle post MC/CP so I've no idea what my bodies doing!!

@Jazper I am very similar in timing to you - my mc started on 27th feb - I had a scan on March 12th (at the time they were saying they needed to see me as they thought I might have dates wrong - but I was certain I hadn’t as it was a one time dtd when we were finally alone at my parents!) and everything was clear and they said it was as if I was at the beginning of my cycle as I had thin lining and not due to ovulate yet. I’m not sure if I ovulated that cycle - but I’m on to my 5th cycle now! I feel you! I worry a bit as I’m 36 so I’m trying not to panic about my age lol! Sometimes I feel like I am Dory from finding Nemo - just keep swimming.. xx

@ManchNic @vp91x thank you both for sharing your experiences, it's made me feel a lot better x coupled with a little cry with DH when he got home I let it all out. I feel much better for it though.

@vp91x I'm in a fit of giggles at the thought of your CM photography. Maybe some to be framed along with the wee sticks and pots for the home decor? 😂
Pretty sure my OH would go off the thought of sex for a good length of time if he caught me doing any of my TTC stuff 😂

@MichT4 we literally had the same 😂 I had southern fried chicken strips, chips and rice 🤤 great minds think alike it seems x

@VP91x you've been much better than me and MichT4 with your lentil Bolognese, tbh I was feeling strangely off my food and have to leave half of it 👀 Also after all the advice from ladies on here, me and DP did much better when I stopped sharing every detail he actually wanted to have sex again which is kinda nice 👌🏾 but I'm sure your OH will still get the job done when the time comes xx

@Northernsoul90 thanks so much, honestly I keep saying it but it's so nice to have everyone support eachother on here. Hope the blood test goes well and you get all your questions answered and hopefully a cheeky scan aswell x

@Jazper ive told myself how chilled I will be this month if I don't catch and I'm already thinking 'well maybe I'll just order the opks in case of an emergency' there is only so much relaxing we can do right 😂 but I also had a chat with my OH and I think it can be good to agree a plan that works for you as a couple and try something a little different if it makes us feel calmer even for one week of our cycles x

@Rebecca1992 every day I google ...dpo symptoms and watch YouTube videos. Even though the 3 times I was pregnant I had no symptoms! The TWW is just torture. I need to pee on some sticks!lol

@chloedancer897 😂😂 absolutely!! Its a like a bad itch! Roll on Sunday I will test, how about u?
