@SmileyT those lovely lines 🥰🥰 how amazing, actually makes me feel a bit emotional.

A fellow lifter, hello! It is frustrating if you haven't got kit. We didn't have any of it until lockdown and we pretty much panic bought everything we could get our hands on. It's motivating, but sometimes when I want to sit and vegetate, it's annoying 😂
There's actually loads of stuff you can do with bands, I had to do that before some of the kit arrived, it's amazing how much it hurt (in the right way).

xx

HE88 · 18/07/2020 19:05

@2020wish no I've not tested because I've been spotting which is a sign that af is on her way! 😢 Xx

2020wish · 18/07/2020 19:06

@HE88 that’s right :( I hope she doesn’t show for u and I get a surprise xx

DBTJ · 18/07/2020 19:07

@2020wish I pregnancy test with clear & simple from b& m. 23rd of March is my due date 1 date after my late mum so would really be a nice little present for me to turn my pain to joy as she also passed in March. I have also tried to power nap for past 3 hours however sleep did not come.

Tbh I'm not ready to join any pregnancy forum I was not even ready to contact antenatal however my doctor did as I had to tell her I was preg due to medication.
How about you

2020wish · 18/07/2020 19:19

I’ll be due March 31st: which would also be lovely for me as it’s the same month as my daughter birthday and she has been begging for a sibling for years and was so upset when we lost the one she knew about so that due date would be lovely for her. That would be such a nice due date for u also with ur mums anniversary. No I am too afraid to due a pregnancy group as I’ve had to leave 3 :( I couldn’t do it again, so going to wait until at least the first scan at around 6 weeks. And I’m planning on ringing the maternity unit when I’m about 5 weeks to get booked in for an early scan. So I’m happy to stay here in this forum and wait on the other ladies joining us with BFP :)

Hayley19835 · 18/07/2020 19:27

@2020wish congratulations on your BFP such lovely news 🥰

2020wish · 18/07/2020 19:30

@Hayley19835 thank you :) how r u x

bxiiboo · 18/07/2020 19:31

I've seen a few posts about aspirin in here- would anyone recommend this? Not sure whether to start this cycle? Just getting very impatient with trying!

2020wish · 18/07/2020 19:41

@bxiiboo I would make sure you aren’t on any other medication or have any health issues that contradicts taking aspirin. Also I would make your gp is aware you are taking it

bxiiboo · 18/07/2020 19:46

@2020wish I have done some googling and the only medication I take is levothyroxine as I have no thyroid gland so should be okay- have a feeling this may not be helping me ttc as my levels are all over the place post MC.

Will call my GP to discuss further, thanks Smile

Diorissimo1985 · 18/07/2020 19:59

@2020wish wow congratulations on your bfp! I am so thrilled for you! We have been on various threads together since April I think (Christmas babies etc) and I feel such genuine happiness that you have your bfp!! I am praying that this sticks for you and you have a great 9 months ... congratulations again lovely xx

Renna · 18/07/2020 20:06

@SmileyT hey hun xxx no no symptoms of AF nor PG tbh. I had some crampy like /pulling feelings on and off couple days ago but not very strong just like light pains. And I've been waking up early like 4 /5am and not able to go back to sleep . I keep feeling my cervix and checking CM I think my cervix feels closed still and normally it's open a couple days before AF due so this is what's giving me hope. But I just dont feel pg and I feel doubtful as I didnt get peak OPK. But I didnt get pg symptoms until i was like at least 6 weeks at least last time. So my Hope's/expectations go up and down and I'm kinda trying not to think about it as dont feel ready to test yet . So as you can see I'm .all over the place hah. How are you feeling xx

2020wish · 18/07/2020 20:16

@bxiiboo yes it’s worth talking to your doctor about although most doctors don’t know enough about it and fertility, it’s usually more the fertility doctors but even if you chat about it being safe for you to take and make them aware u plan to take it increase u ever need to go to hosp etc as it will alter ur blood clotting etc.

@Diorissimo1985 yes we have 😃 my Christmas baby was the longest I’ve carried this year, we should be 5 months this month. I’m hoping this is my chance finally and fingers crossed u can join me when u test on the 26th

2020wish · 18/07/2020 20:17

@Renna it sounds positive for you. I’m really hoping you get ur BFP. What are u planning on testing

Renna · 18/07/2020 20:30

Thank you xx @2020wish 🤞🤞 I really dont know 😫 I'm so indecisive and had no plan when to test etc. Last time I waited 6 days after AF was late but mainly due to the fact that was my bday and I wanted to wait until then . I kinda think I'll just get a feeling in a day or 2 like yup I need to test now. We actually got my step son this weekend , first time in 5 months so it would kinda feel weird testing when hes here and having to keep it quiet with DH until we take him home tomo. Then I feel like it has to be FMU so have to wait until monday really xx

2020wish · 18/07/2020 20:38

@Renna I understand what you mean, will be patiently waiting on u testing and keeping my fingers crossed. X

HE88 · 18/07/2020 20:38

@2020wish thank you I'm not feeling very hopeful but a surprise would be blooming lovely. Xx

@Renna oh I so hope this is all good signs for you and you get that bfp. That's great you got your step son for the weekend must be lovely getting to spend time with him 🥰. Xx

Renna · 18/07/2020 20:46

Aw thanks girls @2020wish @HE88 just looked in cupboard what tests I have . Have a frer clear blue digital and normal clear blue. So have plenty there when I feel mentally ready if no AF ! I think if I had my peak opk I would maybe test now but the fact I didnt get a peak is throwing me off xx but I only started testing CD12 for it ... maybe it came on CD11 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ if that's even possible.
Yeah been so nice having him .. although my poor husband got shouted out at the door when picking him up 🙄 and step son been told not to hug us .... but staying in the house sharing food bathrooms sitting next to each other on sofa ok.... just any control she can try to have still and try get to my DH 🙄 but yeah ignoring that it's been nice we did him a little party just us 3 and our puppy for his bday which was in may ! Xx
Also feel bad I've drank like 3 bottles of wine the last 2 weeks as didnt get a positive opk and got me done so been like screw it ... xx

HE88 · 18/07/2020 20:51

@Renna you are well stocked for when you decide to test, good luck 😊.
She told her son not to cuddle you both why? That's horrible saying that to him how old is he? Xx

2020wish · 18/07/2020 20:52

@Renna this cycle I didn’t get the usual peak I normally get with my opk. My peak was 80 out of 200. 80 being the bare minimal for a peak result. I usually get at least 114/116 for a peak. So don’t go by gospel for opks as ur urine could of been diluted: but it’s good u have tests sitting there is af doesn’t show. Aww sorry to hear about his ex. My partners ex is the same... any reason to make his and my life’s miserable. Take no notice of her. Exes like that are just jealous x

SmileyT · 18/07/2020 20:54

@VP91x I actually had results with bump downloaded before but didn't get a chance to try it so will give that a go tomorrow. I always feel better if I move rather than just sleeping all day, feel hungover all the time right now x

@2020wish thanks lovely you too and sounds like a good plan to test over the next few days then stop. I didn't think I'd have a testing problem but was just enjoying seeing the progression but time to call it a day and enjoy it x

@MichT4 ahh thanks lovely, you'll be joining me again soon 😘annoyingly my OH has got bars and plates at his mums but we just don't have any space here, no garage and would take over our living space if we had it set up here, so I need to find a new normal at home until I'm ready to get back in the gym 💪 xx

@Renna yeah I totally understand, get through this weekend and then just see how you feel about testing next week. That sounds so horrible with DHs DS but glad you're all making the most of it, bet he is loving time with the pup. I'll just silently be waiting for your update to see how you got on, honestly testing later is the best because less time to wait afterwards if you get your BFP 🥰And I'm all good thanks just trying to stay positive x

Renna · 18/07/2020 21:02

@HE88 @2020wish he is 11. I've been with my DH 6 years so known him since he was 5. 💙Because of covid 🙄 long story but she was saying he had to sheild but my husband got proof he didnt have to from his consultant... so she was using covid to stop us having him basically . Months and arguments later we finally got him this weekend but still not without dramas . Weve been to court twice in the past too to get child arrangement orders sorted my DH had to fight so much just to see him . She makes my step son call my DH by his first name and not allowed to call him dad in her house. Luckily my step son is lovely and sweet and we both have a really good relationship with him so she doesnt win despite her attempts . That's the main thing 💙 and oh yeah deffo jealousy! Xx

Stayinghopeful92x · 18/07/2020 21:04

Am sure Bella will keep u occupied 😂. Your welcome.

They are actually really good pets but ours is just a baby so well handled. Attached a wee photo 😂🦔. We only count it as 2 as I swear my jack Russel is a person 😂 got her as a puppy 13 years ago and shes never away from me ❤. Ohhh lovely what kind are u getting xx

HE88 · 18/07/2020 21:13

@Renna that's horrible what you have both had to go through to see him. Poor boy he must wonder what on earth is going on. She sounds like a such a crack pot but I'm glad you don't let her win! Xx

2020wish · 18/07/2020 21:14

@Renna that sounds so similar to my partner and his ex. He was broke up with her over a year before I even met him and some how it’s all my fault he abandoned his kids. In reality she hasn’t let him see them for absurd reason even tho he raised them the 13 years he and her where together. We haven’t been allowed them over covid and they aren’t allowed to call him dad. It breaks his heart. We are in the process
Of going to court to gain proper stable access. I’m
Glad u have a good relationship with him , that’s what’s important. He is old enough to know u and his dad are bad people.

@Stayinghopeful92x omg I want one lol where do I get one lol my partner would kill me tho. We have 3 cats and a hamster lol
