@Vil10 my doctor says the main problem with coffee is that can raise your blood pressure, but unless that is a problem to start with, you would have to drink buckets of it

Af arrived after a spontaneous morning baby dance just now so I'm out :( means I can organise seeing the doctor now though☺️ how's everyone?

@Newbie0818 I had cramps yesterday, and felt very wet but nothing came, spontaneous morning baby dance for us too

Ah damn @Newbie0818 but always nice for a bit of morning baby dancing!

We had our steak & BJ night last night & it went from BJ into BD pretty quickly waggling my ass in DHs face 😂 (that old trick!) & I have to say we have no idea how some of you guys have used the withdrawal method successfully 😳😬

@Franklydear aw hope she stays away for you.

@Minster2012 love it! Also, withdrawal- that's how I was conceived apparently 😂

@Franklydear ohhh okay that makes sense, my blood pressure is fine but think I'll just stick to decaf now anyway!

@Minster2012 love it😂 also what's your the withdrawal method?🙄

@Newbie0818 so sorry for af turning up! But glad you got some morning BD in!

@Vil10 apparently they are now saying there is no safe amount of caffeine in pregnancy, based on some new research. I haven't looked into it at all but saw a few headlines recently 😥

Sorry to hear that @Newbie0818

@Vil10 the withdrawal method....If we were to do it I think we might fail after DH went "I think a few may have escaped love" 😂

@Minster2012 IDIOTS 😂

@Newbie0818 @Franklydear I am going to join you on the spontaneous morning baby dance train also 💃🏼

Mornings ladies, I am now cooking a sausage sandwich for breakfast 🤣 my bbt chart is looking satisfying already I hope I'm on the right track this month 💪🏼

@Katao oh possibly a good idea that I'm now on decaf who knows what to believe nowadays😂

@Minster2012 ohhh I'm familiar with pulling out just didn't know that's what it was called😂 I also have no idea how people do that!!

@lucyrp yassss hope this is the beginning of normal cycles again for you!!

Yayyyyyy come on in sausages, in allll the holes 😂

@Newbie0818 I genuinely don't know how ppl use withdrawal /pulling out! We just get a bit too "lost in the moment" clearly! I think a lot of babies are conceived like that 😂

@Minster2012 we actually spoke to two as the first one (in my eyes) gave false hopes. He said we can still conceive and to keep trying. Once I looked up the averages myself, I realised that the fact he was below in 3 of the areas was not good enough to just say keep trying. So we spoke to another gp who said we could get referred and talked about the lifestyle changes. Tbf the first dr said that too but as I wasn't in ear shot that time I was getting info second hand. Good to know you had 2 friends that were still successful. Clomids used to help ovulation, which I have every month. Can it help sperm too then? Oh he's got the kick alright! I'm going with him to the pub today so I'll be on smoking and beer watch 🤪 tbf he's already stopped smoking since the result, it's the booze now! I've said 2 pints is his limit, fun police but it's for the greater good and he knows that.
@Vil10 no more chocolate for me, I need to sort my diet out too. I feel so fat and frumpy. I look shit in pictures so it's time to make a change for the better. Ooh hope your lack of sore boobs means something!
@lucyrp I did I did 😬 cleaned last night and this morning, and got a shag in too, wahey! Needed as I'm spotting and aching now so AF is coming!!!
@SarahTTC2020 thanks honey! I'm really trying too. Hope you're well!
@Newbie0818 sounds similar to me this morning! Hope you're ok my love x

@Minster2012 @Vil10 We actually used the withdrawal method very successfully for 2.5 years before TTC 😂 OH was very disciplined though! I tracked BBT using natural cycles app to know when he had to withdraw and when we were 'safe', always is that risk though I guess!

@Vil10 I know, they are always adding to the list of don'ts 😭 I love my coffee!
@notyetamumbuttrying I'm sorry to hear the sa results weren't good. Its an answer at least though and hopefully lifestyle changes will help.

Very jealous of all the morning dtd!

Thanks @Katao yeah, hope so too! How you getting on?

All this no caffeine chat is making me worried 😂 I have a latte every day. Although, when I'm in the 2WW I try to only have a decaf where possible, but I know decaf doesn't mean there's no caffeine in it.

My husband and me have been working from home since March and a big part of our daily lunchtime strolls when the weather is dry is stopping by a local cafe to grab a coffee to go. I would miss it ☕️ I don't drink any tea and chocolate is usually a once a week treat for me so I do think that must help with down cutting the caffeine intake.

My mum told me she drank a lot of lucozade when pregnant with me! The amount of caffeine she must have been having if she did that along with her usual cups of tea and coffee. How things have changed!

Well , ladies, here’s a conundrum, my nausea, sore boobs and cramps have return, now it is less than two weeks from that spotting and just about a week from the bfn, any theories? cos I have none

@Ltay2 I guess when combined with the safe days it's easy to avoid those illusive 5 days we could get pregnant as we know now 😂🙄but I know I couldn't trust DH to withdraw if we had sex on days when there could be ovulation within a window that's for sure 😳🙈

@notyetamumbuttrying def friends have been ok with low Motability but unsure what they did, I don't thinking smoking was involved though but I'm pleased he's now fully on board with you! I do Pilates and that's been good for me fitness & figure wise too

I'm not too worried about the caffeine now I've cut down to one a day as @2020mission said lots of ppl had very different lifestyles previously (lucozade, love that!) so I think if I just have one a day and no more then I should be ok but it's each to their own, I will look at the NHS guidelines at the time of I become pregnant & follow them & make a judgement on everything I think

@Franklydear if I was you I would have taken another test by now! Who knows what's going on... have you figured out when you would be due AF next if your last light bleeding was a period?

@2020mission we were talking about it just yesterday, I can’t face any more bfn, especially so close together, and I figured if I am pregnant now, so will I be in a couple of weeks, if the bleeding was a period, pettiful as it was, then the next should be around the 24th, ... I should test a few days after that, unless full flow there’s no doubt kind of af, if it was a period there’s no way implantation can happen in that, though, I considered the change, but no symptoms of that at all, so you’ll all have to put up with my lunacy for a wee longer

@Franklydear that makes sense actually. My main drive for testing is always to check I don't have caffeine, wine or anything else that's a no no during pregnancy, but if I didn't drink alcohol or caffeine much I think I would be happier to wait it out and avoid the disappointment and stop wasting more money on tests.

I don’t drink except special occasions, it’s my birthday next week, I have a bottle of my favourite wine, drink till is pink anyhow,... doc took the caffeine away months ago as my blood pressure shot up, I think it was the shielding and no sleeping that did it, but as she says I don’t really need it if I can have decaf, right?
Anyway, I think if I was pregnant, a frer would have pick it up last weekend, it would be cd 40 by now...

Pressed enter too soon, ...
Saying that, when I was pregnant with ds turns out I was 4 weeks along further than I was, so who knows
I also have that tight tummy I always have during af...
