Not added anyone that I don’t have dates for but I’ve not forgotten you just let me know when you ovulate/ know your test dates ☺️

Morning, how is everyone?

@SmileyT I gave him a spunk break last night... But he ran out the house before a morning bang today 😂 he's laying some flooring for his parents while he's still mainly off of work, so I'll forgive him.

Having a really funny month here to be honest... I feel more obsessed this month than ever, I think because it gives me something to take my mind off how silent the house is without the kids here 😕 I feel a little like this is going to be the month when we are devastated if it doesn't happen, and it's already making me feel really blah - and I'm not even in the TWW yet!

@Minster2012 sex toy, sex toy, dog toy. Keep em coming to cheer me up 😂

@Skip86 I can totally appreciate why you're nervous, definitely try and take it easy, when will you be seeing a Doc for a 1st appt? You're nearly 6 weeks now aren't you? Xx

@Cocoblue22 yeah when they are so cheap it makes sense they won't be as helpful 🙄 have you done a digital already? I'm tempted to get the weeks indicator tests now x

@LV1987 ahh do keep the hope 🙏 you did say that you think you may have missed the peak so maybe you are closer than you think xx

@Minster2012
Dog
Dog
Sex

Hope everyone is doing well. Lots to catch up on. Will have a read through.

I'm guessing sex, sex, dog

Awk @lucyrp I really hoped that of you didnt get a bfp this morn that AF would have at least shown up. Hooray for the fun morning sex tho! I miss morning sex my hubbys out the door at 6am for work and my sons usually up before then so morning sex is a thing of the past with us unless we get a night away somewhere.

@Skip86 everything crossed for you that it's just stretching. Was it spotting or bleeding 🤞🏻my best friend had bleeding throughout our pregnancy, was scary as hell but the terror is still still here, very much alive and kicking (a lot)!

Answers in a bit

@Minster2012 I think dog, sex, dog 🤞🏼🤨

@DKDK123 no neither of them have appeared unfortunately. Well actually this sex was at like half 6 this morning which made it even better as I was half asleep. I woke up and thought he'd left the house already and shouted him and he came back to bed quickly so had it then before he scooted off to work 🙈

@LV1987 😥 its so hard when its something u want so bad while everyone around u catches so easily.
I'm afraid I'll become obsessed. I had accepted we weren't having anymore and the closer to 40 I get the more I feel I'll regret not doing it. I just hope we didn't miss our chance. But we are grateful for what we do have.
My DH niece, 2 yes younger them Dh is having awful issues conceiving and I'll feel awful telling her if we do catch. I know she will be heartbroken. But happy for us

So this is why I don't like clear blue pregnancy tests. They always have evap lines. Like all the time. It was a negative last night when I took the test and this is what it looks like now. Disclaimer: I know this isn't a faint line was just posting it for people to see.

@Cocoblue22 yes I'm 4+2 only symptoms are really thirsty weird dreams starving all the time, tingling nipples on and off and sometimes feel sick plus forever tired but I am anyway with a 9 month old xx

Morning, af is here in full flow, nobody let me test in a week or so, when I say what if....

@dipsy77 have u a mth old.

@LV1987 I feel ya. Im trying my best not to obsess. So sometimes I chuck my phone out of reach, and I wont dare search pregnancy stuff on work laptop or phone 😆 Got a new book to read to help this time, nothing pregnancy related, just about a welsh ultra runner. Also planning stuff for the weekend so I am never in the house. We have also decided to venture to Iceland not Mongolia, as the flights were cheaper, and Mongolia would be better in the summer. So planning that is also a good distraction.
@Vil10 Going to attempt some sort of SMEP. Will probs start dtd this weekend, as its been a week due to AF. Then just attempt everyotherday. Not going to tell OH 'this is a plan' just sort of mention'shall we try and just have lots and lots of sex'

@lucyrp I dont tend to use CB but thats a shocking evap line if it is one. That would have had my hopes up even if it was after the time! I'd need to get the one that says pregnant/not pregnant to put my mind at rest.
I was going to say stress can make your periods disappear for a bit but sex is a stress reliever so I think youve got the lowering your stress levels covered 😂

@Cocoblue22 thanks love x unfortunately I have hired a floor sander from tomorrow to Sunday so will be pretty busy for a few days 😩😩 you're totally right though, I should be resting.

@SmileyT I actually booked an apt with the gp yesterday, it's for Wednesday next week, so hoping this all calms down and I make it to then!

@Minster2012 it's like a pinky type CM rather than full blood. If it was only that I wouldn't be too bothered because I also bled a little with my DS, but coupled with the epic all night cramping... 😬

OMG @lucyrp that's crazy!! If I didn't know the background to your story I'd definitely say that was a BFP. Nuts 🤯

@DKDK123 I know I had two like this with my CP last cycle both clear blue. One the day my period was due and one a few days later and then I got my actual positive a couple of weeks later. I'll attach a pic of both of my evaps last time too. They were all negative and after a while changed to that. They're so annoying because when you're TTC Anything gets your hopes up doesn't it 😂🙈

@LV1987 & @2alreadywantanother I'm obsessing & I don't really have much to obsess over so don't worry you are in good company 🥰well, I think we are good company. It's so tough when you know others are having problems too, just don't rub it in their faces, 1 of my friends told us in a really nice sensitive way, which was great, then spent the whole pregnancy & beyond saying things like "do I look pregnant enough in this top cos I just love showing off my bump" & then when he was 7 months old & I suggested stopping at ours even said "well your house isn't exactly child friendly IS IT?" - we still live in that house, with our about to be 2 year old, who has miraculously survived the stone floors 😳😆u just don't be a 🍆 that's all!!

@Lucyrp that's ridiculous on the test, but yeah I guess if you were that pregnant it should have come up, could you get a cheaper one? Like a superdrug or boots one? I don't know which are good. & nice on the morning sex, I'm not really a morning sex fan but sometimes when I get the horn 👹

@Blodyn91 id love to go to Iceland, a friend has gone & it looked amazing 🤗that would be fab, also the just saying "let's just have lots of sex" is a great idea too cos even every few days should be fine & it will likely be more if you initiate more in FW anyways 🤫

@Franklydear we will try & stop you!!

@smileyT how are you feeling? Sunk in a bit? Any more nausea or just that bit?

@Dipsy77 do you have a 9 month old too?! If so wow!! No wonder tired 🤗

So those ones were
Yellow - DOG - good for 2 dog action pulling toy apparently
Grey - Lucy should get those beads- SEX
Pink- it's obviously a PUPPY DOG toy for teething

Lots of right answers there @blodyn91 @Lucyrp @juno231 @cocoblue22 @vil10 @SmileyT @2alreadywantanother you are all getting too good at this?!!

I know your chances of conceiving after 35 are much lower as your egg quality can get poorer but I didnt realise how drastically the estrogen/progesterone balance can be upset after 35. Just read this article and it says estrogen can drop by 35% but progesterone can drop by 75% thats a big difference between the 2 no wonder lots of over 35s are finding they're having symptoms of esteogen dominance, I know I definitely am! I'll attach the article incase anyone wants a read. Its an easy read all in simple language which is what I liked.

@Skip86 I know madness isn't it. I don't even know why I bought them because they always do that 😫😂 hope you're keeping okay and the pinky tinged CM is nothing to worry about! 🥰

@Minster2012 honest to god I hate my life right now 😂😫the problem I've got is because we're having regular sex mostly every other day if not every day so as long as AF doesn't come I'm going to have to keep doing bloody PG tests incase I've caught going forward if you know what I mean? Seems highly unlikely but there's always a chance. I have some tesco tests here too and may get some co op ones but scared to get co op because they're the ones I did when I had my CP🙈 I do like morning sex and have been incredibly horny lately so 🙈

@Blodyn91 that's pretty much what I'm doing! Probably start every other on Friday then I'll more than likely get a high opk around the 19th then ovulate on the 21st so I'll go for everyday from the 18th-22nd, I might do that, not plan it just initiate lots of sex, and let's be honest, no man will say no to that😂 what cycle is this for you? Have you done smep before?X

@lucyrp that's crazy!! And so cruel when you're TTC!!

Hey @skip86 try not to be worrried!

I've had MC/CP at 5w5d I thought less but they said my measurements were showing otherwise I had two high opks a few days apart So I dated from the second- explains why I got clearblue postive at 10/9dpo last cycle) and 7w2days (previous MC just before this one) and both have been the exact same!

I don't know how else to tell you other than I had a gut feeling everything stopped inside me? My boobs stopped being so sore and I had spotting with both (pink with first and then a bit of red with the second (but after I knew mentally I'd miscarried) With the second my lines got a tad lighter as well and progression wasn't obvious! DH said they didn't but I knew) and with the first my symptoms went overnight!

I know it's really hard to worry having had a previous miscarriage but the bleeding/spotting is very common for a lot of women during pregnancy and it's very unlikely you will have a subsequent miscarriage. Call your docs if you're worried and if the spotting is red or gets worse. I hope you're okay and try to take to it easy on yourself and try not to worry yourself too much! Any plans to take your mind off today?

We are all praying it's a very sticky (albeit naughty bean causing you some cheeky trouble in there) ♥️♥️💕 always here to you need to rant/talk xxx

@lucyrp are you telling me that's an evaporation line!?!? I woulda sworn it was positive- have u got any pink dye tests hun x

@Minster2012 @2alreadywantanother yes she's 10 month in a weeks time so keeps me very busy xx

@Vil10 I don't advise CB PG tests that's for sure 😂

@Mococo1 yep that most definitely is an evap line! I did pink dye IC strip yesterday and they're 10u so pretty conclusive.

Just text oh saying why is TTC so nasty and he said I know exactly what you're going to say I looked in the bin this morning and took the test out to look at it and there's a line on it isn't there. As if he took it out of the bin before me bless him😫
