Hope I've tagged everyone xx

@2020wish good luck for your scan tomorrow. What time is it at? Xx

chloedancer897 · 05/08/2020 21:29

@Lollol86 absolutely. I was convinced when we started trying in October 2017 that I'd be pregnant by Christmas. I didn't think for a second I would have issues.

@SmileyT that's a good idea. I might ask the consultant on Friday when he rings me again. Thank you.

@2020wish good luck for tomorrow xx

@Pugprincess I hope you're ok. That sounds really scary x

Pugprincess · 05/08/2020 21:44

@chloedancer897 @SmileyT thanks I think I’ve recovered and I’ve eaten my dinner. Will take it easy rest of tonight. X

MichT4 · 05/08/2020 22:26

@Rebecca1992 amazing news about your scan! So lovely to hear the heartbeat too 🥰🌈

@SmileyT 😂😂 sorry for the mind blowing! I'm just in from dinner with a friend. Glad we DTD earlier (covering all bases) as I'm shattered now! One more day at work and then seeing puppy on Friday.

@2020wish all the luck tomorrow! Can't wait to hear how you get on

@Pugprincess glad you're feeling better now.

Girls, don't even talk to me about eyebrows 🐛🐛

Lollol86 · 05/08/2020 22:36

@MichT4 oh yours are bad too then 😭😭

MichT4 · 05/08/2020 22:38

@Lollol86 horrendous. I'm not even attempting to do my own, they'll have to do 😂

Diorissimo1985 · 05/08/2020 22:45

Ladies I have taken a few days off from mumsnet and I’ve missed about 700 posts on this thread 🤣 I will try to catch up....
hope you’re all doing okay xxx

chloedancer897 · 05/08/2020 22:48

The consultant also recommended this supplement to me. Anyone heard of it or used it?

Lollol86 · 05/08/2020 22:50

@MichT4 I'm just leaving mine too, I tend to just keep my sunglasses on if I'm out now regardless of the weather 😂😂.

@chloedancer897 no I've never heard of them xx

Pugprincess · 05/08/2020 23:16

@chloedancer897 they sound good! I was always under the impression selenium and vitamins were what we needed though...interesting...give it a go? Nothing to lose. Wonder what they cost x

VP91x · 06/08/2020 06:48

Morning ladies ❤️

Nothing interesting to report here, CD15 my OPKs have been less than low 🙄

@MichT4 yeah definitely take one and see what happens, hopefully it is a good result! Jealous of your LD time away! 🥰 How are you feeling this morning?

Yeah, exactly I'll have tests this month and especially if nothing happens with ovu then that gives them more reason to go in with the good stuff at first 😂

@2020wish I hope so! Would be wonderful to get pregnant by then🥰 hope your scan goes well today ❤️

@Hayley19835 have you tried adding in a bit of lemonade or something like that to cut the edge a bit? I love the stuff so not sure what would make it taste much nicer haha xx

@Northernsoul90 sounds lovely, you'll have a great time. I have ny fingers crossed for you. Af still hasn't shown has it? This is so positive if it hasn't xx

@Rb486 thank you, it sounds like you have got a good approach to this month. I really hope it is positive for you and brings down the stress levels. TTC is forever humming around in the background which can be overwhelming.

@chloedancer897 I'm sorry the consultant just threw all that news at you. Also where do all our bloody eggs go!? We have millions at the start 😩 I have heard of the impryl because that website is where I got my Pcos supplement, it has really great reviews and they seem like a reputable company so give them a go! How does the consultant know for sure at what rate your egg reserve would lessen? Also, is there a way he can get you up the list even for egg retrieval/freezing or IVF? There must be something he can do. Sending you a massive hug ❤️❤️

@Rebecca1992 I'm so so glad everything is measuring and going well with your little baby. I hope you can start enjoying your pregnancy with the reassurance that all is well. Xx

@SmileyT haha made me laugh at you getting your eyebrows done and realising it was illegal. Honestly so silly that beauty salons haven't been allowed to open. Sounds like another good but long day for you. I hope you are spending your weekend horizontally and resting! Work was good, week is going so quickly xx

@Pugprincess I'm sorry you had a shitty day, I know it doesn't matter anymore but if you had resigned they can't send you a dismissal letter because you've already said you were going. Hope you rested up xx

@Sallyjo27 It's almost more frustrating when results are inconclusive because you want some sort of an answer but I'm glad that they didn't find anything sinister. Do you have any next steps or follow ups? Xx

@Diorissimo1985 hey 🥰 how have you been getting on?

@Renna @Jazper hope you are both okay too xx

2020wish · 06/08/2020 07:15

Morning everyone. Thank you for the well wishes . Haven’t had a minute to read over all comments atm. Scan is at 8:30am x

Northernsoul90 · 06/08/2020 07:32

@SmileyT Thank you! Me too it would be so lovely 🥰. Another milestone passed nearly for you I'm glad you're getting on okay! Xx

@2020wish good luck for this morning! Xx

@Diorissimo1985 hello! How are you getting on? Xx

@VP91x No she hasn't shown yet, 13dpo today. I had period type pains on and off yesterday I was convinced she would arrive! We will see 🤞🏼🙏🏼 xx

Pugprincess · 06/08/2020 07:36

@VP91x thank you, I’ve woken up thinking about it a bit, it’s just all final now so I need to get my head around that and then I will be ok.

@SmileyT ooo least it’s nice and early so you aren’t twiddling thumbs all day.

11dpo and day 29 here. I thought my discharge had stopped with the light brown and gone back clear/white last night so I will see what today brings. Waiting in for the dishwasher delivery today 😬 can’t have it installed till Saturday although it’s bro in law who’s a plumber and he’s coming to look at boiler tonight so maybe...might be a big job for tonight though cause he needs to drill holes through wall, install pipe work and change an electric plug lol. X

Can I just say I know we haven’t met but I really love and appreciate all of you. This thread is the only thing that stops me feeling completely alone. ❤️

Rebecca1992 · 06/08/2020 07:49

@2020wish Best of luck this morning with your scan xx

2020wish · 06/08/2020 07:53

Thank U all: so nervous. I stupidly took two tests today after not taking any for over I week. The easy at home was fine but the femometer was not as dark as the last one I took last week. Feel sick

Firevie · 06/08/2020 08:00

Morning ladies!
@2020wish good luck. Only half an hour to go!!!
@Northernsoul90 happy anniversary and yes to no AF on 13 dpo- fingers crossed
@Pugprincess hope you feel better!!!
I started doing my yoga this morning but quite a few of the videos I clicked on she said not to do in TWW so I got paranoid and didn’t do them. Then found one for TWW albeit a goodnight series but I thought why not. So just posting the link here. I just didn’t want to break my Habit

I have my post ERPC appointment with my doctor at 10am today. Just to see that everything is fine xxx

scrambledeggy · 06/08/2020 08:03

@Rebecca1992 That must be such a relief for you! Wishing you the best for your own scan today @2020wish, panic-testing is such a normal response to the situation you're in. Fingers and toes and everythign crossed.

@Pugprincess A dishwasher! I dream of having a dishwasher one day! No matter what else is going on in your life, please be reassured knowing that you are living my dream Grin Hope all that drilling etc. doesn't give you too much of a headache.

Being surrounded by all this positivity is making me feel so much more relaxed when I've suddenly gotten some horrible painful boobies and I feel like I want to cry. Ah, hormones...

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 08:05

@VP91x it's weird isn't it, with tests looming you're torn whether you want to ovulate and have a chance, or not so they give you the drugs! Totally with you on that.

I am ready for the holiday, I must say. Did you decide to book anything?

I'm fine this morning. Utterly confused by skin temps - it went down this morning (tiny amount - 0.05 degrees) but I woke in the night sweating again. And this morning I was sweaty - what a beaut! I wonder if you're right about skin temp being cooler to try and cool you down, just seems so unlikely it would be lower. I was certain it would be sky high! Was even tempted to stop wearing it but I know I need to to pick up trends going forward.

How are you?

@Northernsoul90 good news it hasn't arrived. Let's hope she stays away.

@2020wish good luck this morning! Can't wait to hear how you get on

xx

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 08:09

@Firevie good luck with your appointment today. I am in the office so no yoga this morning - maybe when I get home.

@scrambledeggy could these be good signs?

scrambledeggy · 06/08/2020 08:32

@Northernsoul90 I bet POAS day can't come quick enough!
@Firevie all the best for your appointment, it's so reassuring to just to be able to talk to a real person I find.

@MichT4 LOL can only hope, I just went to the fridge and saw that some meat had passed its use-by date and now I want to cry even more Sad

Pugprincess · 06/08/2020 08:34

This is messing with me now. Fmu. Swear it’s darker?!

Pugprincess · 06/08/2020 08:34

I also add it showed within a minute xx

MichT4 · 06/08/2020 08:38

@scrambledeggy I literally hate when that happens. I had to throw about 3 packs away the other day and it makes me want to weep/scream. So wasteful! Fingers crossed you'll always look back and remember your first symptoms as being 'emotional about meat'.

@Pugprincess I can't see a line on that picture - sorry, I hate saying that. Doesn't mean it isn't there in real life. Please try and relax a little if you can, I totally get how anxious this time is, but you will drive yourself mad to keep testing. Put them away until the weekend at least and see if there's any development.
And I totally agree with you by the way about this group - a saviour for me, and you all feel like friends I've known for years!

@2020wish good luck with your scan dear 🥰
