August - might be a pact....might be madness

[Rotagilla]

Hello, just a new thread for August...will add people as and when they finish with the 'July pact'

I think it's important to have a relevant thread once you are looking forward and gearing up for the next cycle...
Or chat turns to tww's when we will want to start chatting about ovulation again...

Will run both threads alongside each other ❤️

@kirinm Thank you 😊. I'm feeling really very scared! DH is bricking it too lol. This is our first, so brand new for both of us! I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to do now.. might go mountain biking while I still can 😂. I hope so much that I don't get morning sick..

Oh wow congratulations @BuckleUp

I am 11dpo and still not feeling brilliant. I feel hot all the time - not helped by our flat being like a sauna! Last night I went to bed with a headache and woke up with it too. I was hoping these were all good signs but period type aches have started now. I actually asked DP to buy a test yesterday but he forgot so no testing is going to happen here!

Amazing @BuckleUp congrats! What a line!

I’m Also moving
Literally just waiting for our deeds to arrive to sign then we can complete
I reckon about another 2 weeks. I’ve started packing my rented house slowly and binning what I can

@buckleup congratulations what a great line! Fingers crossed for a healthy 9 months for you x

@BuckleUp What a beautiful BFP! Congratulations! 🥳

Glad to hear from you @Sansa87 and that you’re emotionally feeling better. If nothing else you can now have your new house to concentrate on! Exciting 😁

How are you @stickytoffeepud1991? Hope the ‘rona is making its way out!

Does anyone else feel less fertile some months than others? I realise that might sound a bit crazy haha but last month I had absolutely loads of EWCM, this month I've had some but not a massive amount - does it massively affect chances of a bfp?

Wow @BuckleUp!! That is a perfect bfp!!!

Thanks everyone, this group is so supportive of each other. Going to wait a few weeks to see how it progresses and then figure out the next steps. Sending baby dust to all ✨

@BuckleUp congratulations so pleased for you 😀

Thanks @BabyH88 😊. Did you figure out if your bleeding was IB or AF in the end? Hope you're ok x

@BuckleUp Defo AF but it was our first month so it's not surprising.

The dilemma I now have is do we try again this month or just wait till we are married.
If we fall pregnant this month we will have a 2 1/2 month old which isn't an issue but will I feel as good as you want to feel on your wedding day 2 months after giving birth. Having never been pregnant I have no idea what to do.

My age always worries me as well leaving it too late. It's so difficult. Bloody coronavirus messed everything up.

Sorry for the rant. I hope your pregnancy goes well and is everything you could ever wish for.

@BabyH88 I always think that doing something like that will guarantee a baby.

We have a holiday booked next June. I hope the universe will be a dick and let me have my baby but make me lose my holiday.

I know it’s different to a wedding, but that’s always been my way of thinking. I feel like the universe will catch on, & it won’t work this time 😂

@BabyH88 That's a hard decision to make, and only you'll know what's best for you. DH and I got married at the end of 2018 and it was an amazing day, but it's just that. One day and then the rest of your life to focus on what's important to you. Saying that, weddings are stressful and babies are stressful so maybe the two together will be super stressful! Whatever you decide, I'm sure you'll have an amazing day surrounded by the people you love x

Congrats @BuckleUp how many dpo are you... Figuring out when I should test this month... X

@SVC11 Thank you 😊. I'm 13dpo, but my LP is usually 12 days so AF is currently one day late. Where are you at the moment? x

6dpo so some time to go yet... But my lp is short... I just need to wait and if I don't come on on day 10 like usual I'll test on day 12 I think. I've been taking b6 so I'm hoping my lp increases this month but maybe not... Deffo been producing progesterone as my temp went up after I thought I ovulated so 🤞af stays away. Love seeing you bfp though! Such good news! X

This is why I love this group just to air my thoughts with no judgement and good advice thank you ladies @BuckleUp @Sansa87 x

Congratulations @BuckleUp and @Lettie365 ❤️
August looks like it's going to be a good month already!

Fingers crossed and baby dust to all!

I'm 10 or 11 dpo and I've had pink cm on and off for a few days, I have very very sore boobs but no usual signs of AF (due Tuesday)
I tested yesterday and bfn....
Tempted to use a more sensitive early one tomorrow!!
Or do i wait?!
I've been quite relaxed so far and now it's all I can think about!

What test did you use @Rotagilla? All sounds super promising!

@MrsB2019x only some super cheap b and m ones 😂

Oh exciting!!

@rotagilla that sounds really promising! I'd get a FRER and test tomorrow... Good luck!

Think I'm going to have to take painkillers for boob pain, it's seriously uncomfortable 😩😢

Not had it like this before, bloody progesterone (even on the pop pill)

Oh wow congratulations @BuckleUp that is an amazing Strong positive!!

@MrsB2019x thanks for asking!! The Rona is going or gone?? I still have a bit of a headache and feel a bit weak but temp has gone and my whole body aches have gone too. I felt like back to my normal self late Friday night. Still off work though until a week Monday! Due to ovulate this week starting to show signs but think this week will be a bum out as we haven’t DTD and DH doesn’t want too which is understandable. So might aswell class me as being out for this month girls 😂
How are you??

@Sansa87 glad to know your feeling better hun.

@Rotagilla tjese are good signs with the pinkish cm! I defo think FRER are my go to but they so expensive 😂 XX
