@candycrush2298 oh wow Vegas!! Yeah!!! Id love to go to America but I'm crying on a flight to Greece that i want to get off haha! I don't dislike flying i just hate sitting in a seat for so long.

Ooo don't listen, i didn't have that pregnancy feeling until my second trimester. I think the thing with us women is we symptom spot way too much and think we feel things we don't.

candycrush2298 · 23/09/2020 21:14

@Kaybobx lol oh I hear you there lol!!! I also don't enjoy sitting on a long flight especially the one to South Africa. But next year will be 3 years since I have seen my dad so need to make a plan. Will probably have to leave Vegas for a while longer. Its time to see our parents.

I wish I had been to Greece so jealous lol. Never been anywhere in Europe yet. I bet it was just amazing!!

What destinations were you browsing?

Lol I know you see so many saying they just knew or they just felt something was different. But you are right no one is the same and everyone experiences each pregnancy different.

@candycrush2298 you haven't seen your dad in 3 years?! Oh my. That breaks my heart, I'm such a Daddies girl. You must go see him.

Greece is a must see too, such a beautiful place. So when i met hubby our first holiday was to Rhodes. He used to go there all through his childhood but his dad died when he was 13 and they never went again. I went back with him for the first time and we went every year up until we had our daughter. So for his 30th birthday in August i was going to plan a trip back there. On his birthday he opens a card with flight tickets to go that afternoon... once we get to the airport all our friends are there and coming too. I think way too much lol. Sounds fun and easy but i know its not going to be

candycrush2298 · 23/09/2020 21:29

@Kaybobx yep its been way too long miss him so much I am also such a daddies girl. Our original plan was this year was waiting on specials on flights before booking which fortunately we did because then lock down happened so yeah.

Oh my gosh, that sounds so beautiful and so romantic!! I love that so much!! Youre sooo sweet I think that is such a beautiful gift. How will he know to take leave with his company? Thats the only logistical issue I see unless its just a weekend away?

Truly sounds so amazing think he would love that surprise.

Hey guys I missed a day so now catching

Aww @candycrush2298 defo see Daddy
I’ve got Majorca booked for June 2021
If I fall pregnant this cycle (because I’m blatantly going to ttc when I wasn’t meant to be) then I’ll be due as I go on hol so have to change it

Lovely lines @snapple21

Kaybobx · 23/09/2020 21:50

@candycrush2298 how long does it take to get to SA from where you are now?

Our birthday's are a week apart so we always book 2 weeks annual leave every year. It will fall into place nicely lol. Just need to get everyone else to buy into it, i understand its a hard time of year to be parting with money during a pandemic

candycrush2298 · 23/09/2020 21:52

@Boc86 yeah agree time to see both mom and dad. Just means flights in South Africa as my mom and dad live far apart lol. Reason i am missing dad so much is because mom and sister were here for Christmas last year so been a few months since I seen them.

Lol truly hope that you have to change your flights lol!! Sounds so bad to be wishing that on you 🤣😍😍

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 23/09/2020 21:55

@Kaybobx oh that is freaken brilliant he won't suspect a thing then truly hope your friends can buy into it would be so lovely!!

Its about 14 hours if we get the good flights with layovers otherwise can be up to 18hours. Would be Edinburgh to London to Johannesburg to Durban. So loads of freaken of flying. I could go Edinburgh to Dubai to Durban but I want to fly with hubby and he needs to be in Johannesburg as he will drive to his mom. Theres not enough time for us to go see our parents together. (Suits me fine miss a trip seeing the inlaws 🤣🤣🤣🤣) shhhh don't tell anyone I said that.

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 23/09/2020 22:02

@candycrush2298 oh my goshhhhhh! What a long time. Can totally understand why you haven't seen them for so long. My parents are an hour away and i find that so hard.. Well especially now they are in lockdown haha 🤣🤣 you are so brave moving so far away.

candycrush2298 · 23/09/2020 22:14

@Kaybobx yeah its really far hahaha. Which means flights are also super expensive especially over Christmas but thats when their companies shut down and get leave so its the best time to see them. Wish it wasn't I hate the summers there hahahaha. A summer Christmas is not all its cracked up to be I promise lol.

Awww honey noooo you gotta see them more I know not now with lock down but in future.

Aww thank you, it can come across as brave now because we have a life here but when we just moved I am pretty sure it came across as stupid to many even though they never said that 🤣🤣🤣🤣 so many people i know think the UK is only England so when I said we moving to Scotland and then in later convos interchanged and would say yeah UK this or that and they would be like wait what you said you moving to Scotland and I am like OMG you clearly failed geography in school 😆😆😆

@candycrush2298 I think its the scaling of the graph lol. If it was on fertility friend I think you'd be happy with the temps.

Boc86 · 24/09/2020 10:25

Gosh long flights @candycrush2298 !
My BILs mum is in jo’burg

candycrush2298 · 24/09/2020 10:28

@Elakiya yeah I thought that too, turns out not so much (I fudged the 4th temp pre O because it messed up the chart lol)

@Boc86 yeah its freaken long!! Awww thats nice I hate Jo'burg 🤣🤣🤣

@candycrush2298 i think your chart looks really good! Could go straight back up tomorrow. What CD do you usually get AF?

candycrush2298 · 24/09/2020 10:41

@Kaybobx thanks hun I am not feeling it 🤣🤣

Usually she shows her face between CD24-26 but because I ovulated CD13 it will either be CD25 or CD26. So Monday or Tuesday or if she really feels like messing with me and giving me a trip CD27. But the longest cycle I have ever had is 27days so not too convinced it would be that late

OP posts:
snapple21 · 24/09/2020 10:44

@candycrush2298 are you gonna test or just wait it out?

NamechangeTTC · 24/09/2020 10:55

Catching up.

I need to try to start ovulation tests again. Smep says we start tomorrow. I can't face this again

Have done 120,160,160,200 of soy. 1 more 200 to go.

Kaybobx · 24/09/2020 11:13

@candycrush2298 i usually ovulate cd13 too, be interesting to see if it changes this month.

As @snapple21 said, will you be testing?

@NamechangeTTC im with you, think we are a couple of days apart. I went all in with the soy 150, 200, 200, 200, 200 😂😂😂

candycrush2298 · 24/09/2020 12:03

@snapple21 nope just gonna leave it chart is pissing me off enough that I had no debate this morning about not collecting my FMU hahahaha. So suppose it was a good thing.

@NamechangeTTC sounds good.

@Kaybobx sooo cool!! Lets see if you do as well this cycle. Omg you went all out with soy hahahaha I freaken hope it works!!

Nope no testing

I think I am going to keep the same dosage next cycle because they will measure my follicles and I want to know what its been looking like the last few cycles hahaha. I am curious to know what the soy has been doing. Might just take it a few days earlier CD1-5 so I can be close to ovulation when they measure.

Kaybobx · 24/09/2020 12:55

@candycrush2298 I've got quite abit of cramping going on today! probably ruined my ovaries haha!

candycrush2298 · 24/09/2020 13:15

@Kaybobx omg really hahaha that sounds super scary lol and you sound so chilled 🤣🤣🤣

Hope you're OK lol!! I figure since its natural and you stop everything returns to normal.

ReginaaPhalange · 24/09/2020 17:23
