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 ☺️

@notyetamumbuttrying thank you ♥️

@lucyrp it's horrible isn't it!! I thought the same, thought I'd catch straight away! My OH is so positive so I feel like here is a good place to rant! I agree, I feel like everyone I know or know of are popping babies out!!

@Ltay2 sometimes it's just so much pressure isn't it, it might do you good not being as active! Maybe I should get OH on supplements too! What cycle are you on? I hate the TWW especially when it gets to the point when you know full well you aren't pregnant, it's so disheartening! Literally!! Everyone I know either got pregnant straight away or by accident, I don't bloody understand😂 hahah you deserve a gin!

@SarahTTC2020 oh god I'd have smacked her!! People are so rude and insensitive sometimes aren't they!! I feel sorry for you for having a comment like that thrown at you, you cry and let it out, you'll feel better!

@notyetamumbuttrying but you see so many women having children later on, don't worry I'm sure everything is fine! Like you said we can't do much more, literally doing everything and more!

Ladies, there's a lot of low vibes here tonight & for good reason. I've only skimmed read, partly because since 2pm I've drunk Prosecco x2, walked for a few miles then drink a good bottle of red. 🍷🥂but it's my birthday & I'll get drunk if I want tooooooooooooo....

BUT. I love you ladies & our bodies are fuck boys & I don't like you feeling low. I read your posts I thought THIS

@vil10 rant away. That's why we are here. AF & the pregnant b**ches are (see picture)

@Lucyrp your cycle is a.... see picture.

@ltay2 "oh we weren't even trying"... "we didn't think it would happen so quickly" or my friends' fave...."we were hoping it wouldn't happen so quickly so we could enjoy life more first but you know, when it works it works...NO I DON'T." See picture

@LV1987 your peak?? Where is it already?? See pic

@SarahTTC2020 OMFG they said that out loud??? WTAF??? That's rude even if not TTC the pic doesn't even cover it

@notyetamumbuttrying 11 cycles? See pic

My cycle, see pic, same applies for @katao

Ps - @cocoblue22 - SNACCIDENT - fucking brilliant. My new fave word 🖐🏻

@katecolx your hair is absolutely gorj! Enjoy your days off!

@minister2012 happy birthday hope you had the best day! (Sorry I didn't wish you earlier😩😩 haven't been online today! Undies are gorj 👍🏽)

@cocoblue I wear YSL or NARS x

@Noble89 test again in a few days and I'm sure it will be nice and dark - when do you plan on telling OH?😬

@vil10 the way you're feeling is absolutely natural and we are here to listen to your rants so don't apologise! We all have days like this!

I went to a baby shower today, another girl was pregnant there and another just gave birth and they kept saying it was so easy to get pregnant and how smooth their pregnancies were and I just can't seem to get a sticky bean! it was with my old work colleagues so the others just kept asking me when il have babies 🙄 I'm happy for my friends but it sucked big time for me, so it's okay to feel sorry for ourselves once in a while

@sarahttc2020 are you okay? Really sorry you had to hear that I guess they didn't think before they speak as it sounds really insensitive 😩😩 hope you are okay! X

Thanks everyone, I'm not sure whether I just feel more sensitive because it's cd1 but we used to have conversations about TTC and now that they both are 23 weeks they obv want to talk about the same things ♥️which is not ewcm and tww funnily enough

@Minster2012 oh crap. I can't actually believe I missed your birthday. Worst virtual friend.
Did you have an excellent day??! I suppose with it being your birthday weekend and all we can still be friends, even if you don't like tea 😉 wishing you the best ever day/s and hope you have been spoilt xx

@Clairey844 hahaha I love that of all things Australian the things that made the biggest impression on you were chicken salt and chicken crimpys 😂😂 to be fair though they are pretty great. Also didn't realise the chocolates I've been mentioning were Aussie?!

@SarahTTC2020 hope you had a a good arvo on the gins and feeling a bit better lovely xx
Oh my god your friend said WHAT??! That's unbelievably insensitive. See @Minster2012 's pic

@Cocoblue22 snaccident 😂😂

@Noble89 I know it's so hard but try your best to wait a couple of days to test again, or you'll be tormenting yourself! X

@Vil10 rant away girl. Know what really shits me is the worst people who would make the worst parents go and get accidentally pregnant at the drop of a hat, neglect and abuse their children etc etc, yet my beautiful friend and her amazing husband who would make INCREDIBLE parents have been trying for 2.5 years to conceive. They've finally started IVF but have to go through months of compulsory counselling and psych evaluations first to make sure they'd be responsible parents. WTF??? It's RIDICULOUS and just so unfair.
You will one day soon make an exceptional mummy, no doubt about it.

@Vil10 never apologise for ranting, we all understand how you feel... It's hard when you're ttc and it feels like everyone around you has fallen so quickly without having to try x

@SarahTTC2020 as if you're friends said that about the baby names, people really can be so unintentionally insensitive 😔

@Minster2012 I hope you had the best drunken birthday and enjoyed a lie-in today x

Hope everyone has a good Sunday xx

@Vil10 It is sooo disheartening! It's my 30th in October and I just want to be pregnant for it however far a long I may be 🙈 OH has started taking Wellman Conception tablets, it's just one a day so not much for him to commit to and I think he secretly likes knowing he's doing something extra to help. I'm on cycle 4 now although the first cycle was just a 'see what happens' and although I had some idea when my ovulation was going to be I wasn't tracking anything. I woke up in the early hours with suchhhh bad stomach cramps so definitely won't be having a gin again any time soon (only had 2 as well 😂).

@SarahTTC2020 Wow what an insensitive thing for your 'friend' to say, especially knowing you are TTC. Hope you enjoyed the night as best you could regardless 💕

@Minster2012 The picture sums it all up well, made me laugh thank you 😂

@SmileyT yes I rang my gp in the week and told them and the community midwife rang back later that day and has booked my booking appointment for in three weeks. She said they do a 45 min phone conversation to fill in the green book then you go down straight after for bloods and blood pressure taken. I guess it's to minimise exposure on how long you're there and so you don't have to wear a mask for ages. Makes sense really as it's mostly answering loads of questions. I'm glad your OH is keeping you well stocked with Oreo choc I swear I've become an addict! Do you feel like people can tell? I keep thinking people know I'm sure I'm imagining it! My tummy already feels so heavy and when I turn over in the night I get pains i think ligaments stretching.....didn't happen so early last time but I was huge withDS so they got well stretched so I think they've just relaxed straight away with the hormones this time! At this rate I'll have to start wearing maternity clothes soon 🤣 even if just to house all the Oreo snacks x

@Vil10 it's normal to feel like that sometimes a rant helps get it off your chest. It will be your turn soon how long have you been TTC? X

@lucyrp @Vil10 @SarahTTC2020 @Ltay2 it is so rubbish that it isn't fair and some ladies have to wait longer ☹️ you will get your BFPs but I can appreciate how you feel. I know it's really hard to stay positive all the time but you girls are brilliant and you will get your babies keep going I can't wait to see you all get your BFPs x

@SarahTTC2020 that girl sounds rude....of course you can have whatever name you want and how insensitive of her to say that to you. I think I would of cried and walked out if someone said that to me I hope you're okay. And don't worry about being left out when you get your BFP go to some antenatal classes in your area that's how I met my mummy wolf pack and now I'm so close to them you will make new friends that are at the same stage as you x

@Minster2012 what a great pic 🤣 and so universal for most aspects of life 🤣 love it! Twat face is now my new fave word we can trade! I'm glad you have plenty of prosecco and wine you deserve it! Hope your birthday was amazeballs and you're sleeping off your hangover having a much deserved lie in! X

@skip86 I kept dreaming about mars/twix pods!! They Are the best and We don't get them here in England 😩😩 and I really want some now

@SarahTTC2020 that's so insensitive of your friends! I hope you're feeling better today ❤️

I took another test this morning and there's now clear progression. I've attached a pic, top is this morning bottom is yesterday's.

I've told OH this morning. I ummed and ahhed about it as it's so early I didn't want to get his hopes up for nothing but now I've seen some progression I figured he has a right to know regardless of the outcome. He's understandably over the moon. I've made it clear that it's super early and things regularly go wrong at this stage but I think we both just feel a tonne better now we know for sure the molar pregnancy and surgery hasn't left me unable to conceive. It just takes the pressure off so that even if this isn't a sticky bean we know I can get pregnant which I was worried about.

I think I'll try and hold off testing now and do a digi with weeks indicator on Tuesday.

@Vil10 I totally get needing a rant. We started trying in May 2019 and my baby should have been here May 2020 but over a year down the line I've now only just got my BFP. In that time 4 of my friends have either had babies or are now pregnant and past the danger point. It's just so awful when you can't help but think why them and not me? Your time will come x

Forgot to attach the pic 🙄

@Noble89 woohooo 🎉 congratulations that's deffo a BFP! Exciting! X

@Cocoblue22 thank you!

I feel better now I've seen some progression and told my OH. Is there a graduate bus? I may tentatively join this time.

In other news, I've been feeling sickly when I first wake up for about 3 days now. I had hideous morning sickness with my molar pregnancy but that causes super high HCG levels so was hoping to be better this time. I've just nearly been sick in the dogs face because he breathed on me 😷

@Minster Hahahah you're picture is so fitting to every rant we have on here!!

@Mococo1 I'm glad it's not just me, sometimes I feel selfish, like I'm not happy for my friends, I really really am, but you can't help but feel slightly jealous! Also I hate when people ask when you'll be having one, like hello we are trying!!! I haven't told anyone we're TTC and the other weekend whilst drunk I told my OH friends new girlfriend (I find it easier sometimes to people things who you aren't close with) I just told her by accident, then weekend after she asks "so are you still trying" obviously I say yes and she asks what contraception I was on so I said the pill and she comes back with "ohhh it'll take you ages then" fucking thanks for that dick head👍🏼😂

@Skip86 omg yes that is something I hate!! You see people who really really don't deserve children, smoking/drinking/drugs throughout pregnancies and they seem to have so many children, yet people like your friend who deserve it can't have it that simple, and going through evaluations?? Wow!

@SmileyT it is hard isn't it, it's a hard process!x

@Ltay2 what a lovely birthday present that'll be!
I might get OH on those too, I think he'd like the thought that he's doing something to help as well! You don't realise how helpful tracking is do you, like when I first stafted TTC I was completely off when my ovulation was I was clueless! Oh, maybe switch to vodka😂

@Cocoblue22 Thankyou! You know when you just can't picture something though? Been off the pill since Jan, only started tracking in May though so I feel so selfish and ignorant to other people's journeys saying all this because I know it's nothing in time compared to others but I think because this is something I've wanted for so so long, and I know how much OH wants it too, he's 30 and all his friends have got at least 2 children and he's a godparent to 5 of them and he cannot wait to become a dad, I'd love to be able to do that for him as well!x

@Noble89 when I hear stories like yours I feel so insensitive and rude for feeling upset! I'm so so happy that you got your BFP after your journey!! You really deserve this little baby!x

@Noble89 there isn't a July one yet I commented on the June one a few days ago as I wasnt sure if we were starting a new one. Was leaving it to our bus driver @SmileyT since she's done such a fab job with this bus x

@SarahTTC2020 hope you're feeling better today and know not to take any notice of that comment?
@Vil10 yeah so true! I'm just gonna chill until September when it's been a year and then panic lol! My mum took a year with my sister and she was 26 at the time, then me and my other sister just came along so perhaps that's my path too.
@Minster2012 so glad you enjoyed your bday and bloody loving that pic! Twatface indeed!!
@Mococo1 😬 how did you respond to that question? I have my sisters baby shower in a couple weeks and I know I'll get asked too!
@Noble89 yay to the progression! Defo makes sense to tell him now as like you said you're in this together! Hope everything goes well for you both!
Happy Sunday y'all 🥳

@Busybee143 sorry to hear about the mc, will keep my🤞🏻 it happens again soon-here's to summer holiday success-even though you weren't in school if you're working from home you're still very much in the zone so hopefully the break will help.

@LittleRa crikey it really does make me wonder about stressful jobs and ttc. I'm moving to KS1 in September after only ever teaching KS2 since I qualified in 2005 😬😬

@Vil10 your rant made me go phew it's not just me as I have been feeling that too. I see parents of kids I work with, especially the vulnerable ones and their parents seem to just be the most fertile things going...and they don't even give a shit about the ones they've got 😢 but they seem to just pop them out on a yearly basis for fun.

@Skip86 cherry ripe is not a thing here at all, and I think it was something else on the pic of the bag that we don't get too. To be fair I loved so much about Oz but chicken salt and chicken crimpys are the things I always ask friends to bring over 😂

@Noble89 that's great progression of the line 😍

Xx

@Vil10 it isn't selfish or ignorant at all try and get that out of your head it is human nature to feel how you do and it isn't a fair process. Be kind to yourself. Regardless of how long you've been trying it's tough because you really want it. Please have faith you will get your baby it just sucks it's taking you longer. I came off the pill 7 months before TTC ds as I'd been on it a long time and I bet if I'd tried in those months I wouldn't have got PG and would have felt exactly like you x

@Vil10 there's no need to apologise lovely. We're all in this together and we all know how it feels. Seeing someone who had it 'worse' than me always made me feel bad until I realised someone else having a worse time doesn't mean what I'm going through isn't awful. Honestly I was happy for all my friends but also envious and frustrated. What you're feeling is human nature but you'll have your day soon enough x

@Cocoblue22 good idea. I shall await instruction from our bus driver @SmileyT

@notyetamumbuttrying thank you. Yeah I feel much better now I've told him. Still doesn't feel real though it's such a strange feeling.

@Clairey844 thank you! Just hoping for a healthy sticky bean 😊

@Noble89 I bet! I can't wait to experience it 😬 we've just been sat discussing that I'll be due on again the day before we fly to Barcelona for our first wedding anniversary and saying how nice it would be if I didn't come on and got a bfp instead. 🤞🏾we best get to baby making then 😜

@notyetamumbuttrying some women just take longer to conceive than others! I've always had my mum in my ear saying "how fertile I'll be because she was" the story goes that she only used condoms, not sure if the pill was that big back then? But she told me that her my dad and my older sister were at a party and someone said to then when are you two going to have another, so they decided there and then they were going to try, and got pregnant with me that night, days added up very perfectly, like how can one women plan that so well?😂😂

@Clairey844 it's a relief isn't it when you see other people saying what you're thinking! It's horrible isn't it! But our time will come and we will be the best mummy's!x

@Cocoblue22 @Noble89 Thankyou so much you 2 for your kind words! It really does help having advice from you lot❤️

OH managed to cheer me up with a lovely breakfast this morning before we go on our big walk!

@Noble89 Woohoo for the line progression! Fab x

Can’t believe people’s so-called “friends” making nasty comments 😠 The only friend I told I had come off the pill told me it had taken her 8 months to fall pregnant with her DD so kept telling me it might not happen straight away, be patient etc, so when I told her I’ve had a BFP this month she was like wow that was quick!

Definitely agree about people who seem to fall pregnant so easily but don’t even really want the DC. I know it sounds awful but the school I teach in is quite a deprived area, the kids are lush but there are very large families with 7, 8 even 9 kids, the mums just seem to be constantly pregnant and pushing a pram and yep, smoking at the school gates 😣

@Clairey844 Ah you will love it, the kids are so fun. I taught KS2 for years then moved to Nursery after I had my DD 6 years ago as I wanted part time and it’s a morning only nursery- it was a big change! Since then I’ve increased hours again and moved to KS1.

Guys!!!!!

Am I crazy??????

Its pink and my dd can see it no squinting

Pics not great xx
