Oooo are you resting today @TheOrangeMonster 🤞🏽🤞🏽

@Peony20 I drank mainly when I got my period. But then also did have the odd ones during 2WW. I just think sometimes you need a little drink to chill out and not let it completely take over. But I know everyone is different. OH however I think he's been drinking more over lockdown 😂🙈

@TheOrangeMonster @Peony20
Currently 12dpo I’ve been having symptoms but I think it’s just my mind plying tricks on me. Try again next month ❤️
It’s only our first month of trying so it’s not too bad xx

AnxiousAnnie86 · 14/11/2020 10:29

@Peony20 I didn't tend do drink during TWW, but we weren't thinking about it this month so I did, the call of wine was strong! X

@Blossom428 I totally agree, just a couple and take it easy.

Thanks ladies xx

TheOrangeMonster · 14/11/2020 11:24

@Peony20 I've been feeling like crap tbh - saw a pregnant lady on my way to boots and burst into tears. But hey ho, that's what this thing does to you.
I haven't drunk any alcohol since the beginning of TTC.
@mommyofone2019 hoping if I potentially implanted 9dpo my BFN 5 mins ago is a false one, but let's be real, I know better.

White as the driven snow ladies, undisputedly negative. Lol.

Peony20 · 14/11/2020 12:46

@TheOrangeMonster sorry to hear this 😔, go and do something nice for yourself today 🌸 xx

AnxiousAnnie86 · 14/11/2020 12:46

@Peony20 Great minds - we just preordered collection from our local burger place for this evening (you have to sign up for a slot because they're so popular!) These bad boys (photo) cheer me up!
While I was out I missed a call from the endocrinologist and now she's gone home 🤦‍♀️ typical 🤣 what's everyone doing this weekend (insofar as we are allowed!)

Sorry to hear about bfn @TheOrangeMonster
But WOW those burgers look amazing!! 😋😋

Peony20 · 14/11/2020 13:41

@TheOrangeMonster wow that looks amazing! Enjoy 😋.
Quiet one for me, think we might go for a Forrest walk tomorrow if the weather holds up 🤞🏼 Xx

Redfoot89 · 14/11/2020 14:32

@TheOrangeMonster sorry about your bfn love.

Those burgers look amaaaaazing 😍 we are in scotland so things kind of normal ish here. Went for lunch and been out getting bits and pieces for my DHs stepdad, its his birthday tomorrow! Now going home to do bit of housework and put my pjs back on 🤣🤣🤣

AnxiousAnnie86 · 14/11/2020 17:12

@TheOrangeMonster that food looks insane!!!!!!

I’m feeling pretty down today. Feel very pms which fits time wise so confident this month won’t be mine 😭

TheOrangeMonster · 14/11/2020 19:53

@WaitingForEgg sorry you're feeling blue 😟 sometimes it's just difficult to be upbeat , and particularly now with everything that's going on, it's even harder.
I guess once AF turns up at least we know we're getting a new opportunity.

I was saying to DH earlier that the one thing I find it really hard to get my head around is how all the things we do, month in and month out, can be not working, and all of a sudden they're supposed to work? It doesn't make any sense. I wish you could apply for a test before you start TTC to put your mind at ease about your chances - like guys could get a sample done and get the all clear and ladies could get a blood test and the same thing and then we'd know where we stood. Hell, I'd have paid for that!

I am so full of burger right now, I think I'm going to copy my cat and have a nap. DH keeps dropping me hints but my boobs are so painful I can't even go down the stairs without it hurting. 🙈

WaitingForEgg · 14/11/2020 21:17

@TheOrangeMonster yes i know. I keep saying to my husband something must be wrong. We have sex. I’m conceived before.. I don’t get why it won’t work. I think stress is very likely to blame... but that isn’t easy to resolve

TheOrangeMonster · 15/11/2020 08:43

Another BFN with first morning pee on a FRER. 11dpo, but tbh if I was going to get a positive it'd probably be giving me a very faint line by now. DH said he wants to give up for now and wait for the doctors. I can't help but agree with him. So until we get some help I think we'll just DTD when we want to now, forget about tracking and everything. No temping, no testing. We are officially "not trying" as of this morning. I'll just go to my appointments and do as I'm told. Tbh we need the break, or this will break us.

AnxiousAnnie86 · 15/11/2020 08:47

@TheOrangeMonster I'm really sorry, I think it's possibly the best thing for now even if for a few months, we were going to do the same over November and December Christmas period, the last period I had it broke my heart and I got so so upset and the pressure was really going on my husband he was finding it hard to mission complete when the time was crucial, you have got to protect your mind and heart in this... your baby will need happy healthy parents when it comes! I hope you get a really simple answer soon! I wish you all the happiness xxxxx

Redfoot89 · 15/11/2020 09:05

@TheOrangeMonster im so sorry. Use the break to focus on yourself and your DH, take care of yourselves and be kind to youself.

I hope your appointments can help you in some way and that they can offer a simple solution for you.

Please look after yourself 💙

mommyofone2019 · 15/11/2020 09:12

@TheOrangeMonster so sorry to hear it was a bfn 🥺 sending you lots of 🤗 ❤️

Peony20 · 15/11/2020 10:56

@TheOrangeMonster sorry to hear this 😔. Take the time to look after yourself and your DH xx

Blossom428 · 15/11/2020 12:07

Sorry to hear that @TheOrangeMonster 😔
I think you do right as you say, take time for yourself and for you and your partner just to relax over Christmas. You know you have further tests and help coming, so hopefully that won't be far off!
Sending hugs xx

Chlo2701 · 15/11/2020 14:54

@TheOrangeMonster I'm here🙋‍♀️ I've hardly been on this week, been trying my best not to think about TTC🙈 I've got both my children's birthdays in November & before we know it it'll be Christmas so got a few things to keep my mind off it & keep me busy!
Sorry you're feeling so shut about this situation, I totally get it! You wonder if it'll ever happen. Think I'm month 18 now. I agree that's the right thing for you & you're OH to do, try & forget & not track until after Christmas. New year new start & all that, so let's hope 2021 is our year🤞🏻xx

@Blossom428 massive congratulations to you love!!! Eeek exciting!!! Have you done another test? I bet the line is darker now!😃😃😃😃💞 bet you're still in shock aren't you? Xx

@AnxiousAnnie86 hope you're feeling ok my lovely xx

Chlo2701 · 15/11/2020 14:55

@TheOrangeMonster that's suppose to say shit not shut🙄

AnxiousAnnie86 · 15/11/2020 15:00

@Chlo2701 hey, was thinking about you! Glad you are keeping busy! They sickness has hit my hard! 24/7 really bad :(
