@Catherinettc I can see something! How many dpo are you??

notyetamumbuttrying · 12/07/2020 10:34

@Vil10 damn our fertile mother's lol!
Yum to the brekkie! I have mine making me egg on toast as we speak 😋 enjoy your walk.
@Catherinettc I can a line too! Faint but it's visible! Are you testing before AF due date?

SmileyT · 12/07/2020 10:36

@Cocoblue22 okay I've taken the plunge and started a grad thread July Bus Graduates ❤️ www.mumsnet.com/Talk/pregnancy/3965560-july-bus-graduates

@Noble89 yay 🥳 great line progression x

@Catherinettc ooh I can see something, I reckon in a couple days you'll get a clearer line 🤞

@Vil10 just reiterating what others have said, just because somebody has it 'worse' doesn't mean you can't feel shitty sometimes. My friends have always joked how fertile my family is, everyone has kids and nobody seems to have struggled apart from the woman my uncle married and everyone constantly spoke about it when I was growing up. I always thought it would be so easy for me and once I got pregnant I'd have a baby and everything would be fab. When I MC I felt like i didn't have the right to be as sad as some had tried for years and lost and we weren't even trying but fuck it we all have the right to feel down. P.S that breakie looks lush 😍

@SmileyT praying I can get on this July graduates bus! I'm due on again around the 29th, haven't ovulated yet so don't know exact date. To be fair I just wanna get on any graduates bus at the moment 😝 how you feeling then? You told anyone other than OH yet?

Catherinettc · 12/07/2020 10:51

I dont know how many dpo I didnt track this time. Just tried to relax 🤦‍♀️

App says test in 4 days so thinking roughly 10dpo?

Had a line last night to but it kinda disappeared. This one has stayed and was 100% pink xx

blodyn91 · 12/07/2020 10:51

@Catherinettc I can see a line on 3rd pic. Test again Tuesday? 🤗

@Vil10 Hows Malham? I love it there. Love a good trip up to Yorkshire, we stayed near Skipton for a week for dads 60th. And I totally get the rant. Some days you feel totally fine and understand that TTC isnt easy, but then some days you just think its totally unfair!
My best friend just gave birth to her 3rd on Friday! She took a year to convieve him despite first two being quick.

@2020mission was it you thats a dry cut girl? Ill join you, I spend about £50 on my hair every year, 2/3 cuts 🙈 im naturally blonde, only ever coloured it red when Freddie Ljunberg did his Mawhawk red at the football world cup, back in 2001 I think 😂 Our primary school allowed it back in those days.

Had a day out cycling in the cotswold yesterday with two friends I hadn't seen since Feb, came home to pizza and red wine 😍 Unfortunately the swimmers ended up un the wrong tunnel 🙈 only CD6 so might as well have naughty drunk sex right 😅 guessing I don't log it on my app 😂😂😂

@LittleRa Thanks to all who replied to you re house moving. Our house getting valuated tomorrow so um sanding and painting skirting boards today, whilst OH shampoos the carpets. Thing is we know we can sell, but cant find our dream house.....do we just sell up and rent/move in with parents??

@Minster2012 I didnt log on yesterday! So happy happy birthday!! Sounds like a fab weekend

Ltay2 · 12/07/2020 10:53

@Vil10 Yeah I'm feeling better this morning! Just been for a smear test too which for some reason I was really nervous about even though my last one was fine but this one was fine too! Having a 'normal' trip out to the local garden centre which is nice. That breakfast looks amazing!

Cocoblue22 · 12/07/2020 10:54

@Catherinettc yay woohoo! That's deffo a line 🎉 congratulations x

2020mission · 12/07/2020 11:13

@blodyn91 🙋‍♀️ yes that's me, dry cuts! I must sound boring... I do actually style my hair and curl it some days. I just have never saw the point in paying double the money and time at the hairdressers to have them wash and dry it for me. I wash it in the morning and it's then so quick to pop in for 15 mins for them to cut a few inches off. Does the job! I think this will change when I need to commit to hair dyes to cover white hair though 😆

Catherinettc · 12/07/2020 11:20

@blodyn91 im not even going to lie and say I will wait till Tuesday. I am definitely going on a test hunt today and will be on about a hundred before then 🤣🤣

I told my dd (nearly 13yrs old) that she would be first to know and even shes telling me to get more 🤣🤣 poor hubby lying asleep oblivious to the carnage going on in my head 🤣🤣🤣

blodyn91 · 12/07/2020 11:24

@2020mission Im the same 😂 My hair is just so straight anyway, bit annoying when I want it curled. I do treat myself to styling it if I have a big occasion like a wedding to go to, because all I can do really is a messy bun or french platts

Catherinettc · 12/07/2020 11:36

I saw a pregnancy announcement on Facebook yesterday and thought it was lovely. A couple obviously ttc for a while and it started with 'after 4 long years of trying we can finally announce....' and it made me realise that there are so many out there struggling to conceive and people don't realise.

I've always been lucky that I've caught very quickly. I cant imagine how it must be for some of u ladies on here ❤❤

Others can be so inconsiderate but keep ur chin up and u will get your day hopefully sooner rather than later ❤❤

Omg I'm so soppy this morning 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣 xx

SarahTTC2020 · 12/07/2020 12:03

Thanks everyone, nice to have a group of online friends who have your back and understand your feelings! Know I'm in the right place for this coming cycle!

@Vil10 yeah sounds like your mum had different circumstances. I asked mum how long it took for her to conceive me and she said 6 months which felt like forever and that she cried every time she got her period so I feel ok about it taking that long

SarahTTC2020 · 12/07/2020 12:05

Ooo @Catherinettc definitely something there! Congratulations lovely 🥰

Franklydear · 12/07/2020 12:05

@SmileyT can you put me down to test 8th August? I am chilling a bit, af was 4 days this time, 2 with proper flow, 1lightand last spotting, I am hoping this means cycles back to normal and a better chance, I am trying to keep hope up, while making my peace if it doesn't happen

Mococo1 · 12/07/2020 12:19

@mococo1 I rambled on about our finances- how I need paid mat leave - Said I'm broody but don't want to struggle financially/ and it's only a matter of waiting 9/10m so I can wait! Maybe say your mat leave policy has changed?

The response I got was: oh you poor thing can totally understand having to wait, it's not much longer for you and it makes good sense to do that and be financially stable👍🏽 tbh We couldn't care less about money at all 🤣

@noble89 great progression line you must be so exciting and you defo deserve this! Enjoy it..will you be getting an early scan? X

@catherinettc you are not crazy girl! How many dpo? So happy for you hopefully it works out well this time and test again day after tomorrow- see if the lines any darker ♥️

4DPO and really thick lotiony discharge and so much of it, anyone else get this? I can't remember if I had it last cycle 🤢

Mococo1 · 12/07/2020 12:19

@notyetamumbuttrying sorrry!! I tagged myself instead of you please see the below post 😂

2alreadywantanother · 12/07/2020 12:42

So much to catch up on. @noble89 deffo progression there. Congrats huni.

Sorry so many to comment back too. But I did read

Completely switched off yest. Kids were at their aunts. We had friends over then when their babysitter was to be let go we ended up in theirs 😂 luckily they are only around the corner. 3am we wobbled home 🙈 but it was just wat I needed. A proper blowout. And af arrive full flu so finally can say cd1. If I catch this cycle I'd be pregnant for my 40th🙈

Hope everyone is keeping well.

Newbie0818 · 12/07/2020 12:51

Just caught up briefly, as Minster said those friends are twatfaces! So insensitive. Don't listen to them! People just don't get it, that's why my pregnancy "announcement" is going to be really open and honest about how difficult ttc can be for some people, so I hope all the people that have dropped us hints, asked us outright when we're going to have a baby, and been looking at my belly since we got married, will finally understand that you shouldn't be so nosy and intrusive.

Beautiful hair ladies! I just can't be bothered with all that, though I do like getting dressed up now and again. I'm so looking forward to a haircut 😱

And congrats to the bfp's and line progressions 💕
For those with af or a bfn, ttc can SUCK IT! 🤙🏼

Not much to update from my end, apart from god awful jaw pain the last few days. No not because of what you're thinking!
I'm not feeling so obsessed this month, but still tracking for ovulation, we're just trying to enjoy some time for us right now, and our little animal family 🐶🐢

notyetamumbuttrying · 12/07/2020 13:51

@Mococo1 lol! That's a good angle, will try it or I'm just gonna say we are trying and it's taking fucking ages, Fuck off 😂 I'm sure that'll go down well with my sisters in-laws and new family 😆
@2alreadywantanother good luck for this cycle then! Be an interesting 40th! A sober one anyway 😆
@Newbie0818 same here with our pregnancy announcement if I ever get there! 🤪 glad you're feeling relaxed this cycle, hopefully it'll work wonders!
We're off out for our first meal out since places reopened. A yummy roast at our local pub, I've put a dress on and everything 😂

2alreadywantanother · 12/07/2020 13:53

@notyetamumbuttrying it was a sober 30th too 😂😂

2020mission · 12/07/2020 14:07

@Newbie0818 it would be great if everyone making those baby announcements were honest! From the outside it always looks as thought everything went perfectly and was easy, but I'm sure a lot of these people had some of the same hard months and BFNs before getting there.

notyetamumbuttrying · 12/07/2020 14:18

@2alreadywantanother haha 🤣 mine was far from sober! I had a house party and got so wrecked. I had to go to my room and sober up and a bit before I could come bk out 😂
@2020mission yeah I'm almost certain they did too! I suppose ppl don't want to talk about what happened and just focus on what's to come. It's interesting for me now going through it as I'll be mindful when/if I get to do a pregnancy announcement post.

Noble89 · 12/07/2020 14:41

@Catherinettc you're not crazy there's 100% something there. That's exactly like mine looked (if not a bit darker than mine was) 2 days ago.

I'd say wait 2 days and test again but I didn't 😂. Though I would say I saw no real change in 24 hours and only saw progression as of this morning so if you can resist don't torture yourself x

Catherinettc · 12/07/2020 14:46

Thanks guys ❤ im still a bit scared to be happy 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣

I dont think i will believe it until the line gets darker xx
