@lucyrp that's good of them though that they still paid you full and you just had little jobs to do! Being furloughed for that amount of time was so so boring and made me pile on the weight! It really is, there's just so much uncertainty around everything it's horrible!

@Franklydear he's usually so good and chilled and always makes me feel better but I just think he's surprised, and a bit taken back by the process! I've never asked him to take any vitamins like wellman but I don't know whether to or not!

Newbie0818 · 31/10/2020 09:43

@Minster2012 @Kirky658 I'm glad I wasn't the only one wandering 😂 also @Minster2012 I LOVE Rebecca. Being an English teacher it's my jam haha. Have you read the book or seen the black and white version? The book is my favourite read.

@Vil10 ah I see! I wasn't quite sure how the contraption worked, but if he can hold it that makes sense haha.

@2020mission thanks :) ttc seems to be allllll about waiting haha.

Kirky658 · 31/10/2020 10:17

@mrsbear1122 thanks hun - I got myself so confused - easy to do these days haha!!!! So let's say I got this job, give 4 weeks notice and miraculously fall pregnant a month into the new job, I'd be okay and get SMP? X

Skip86 · 31/10/2020 13:50

Hi hi!

Sorry @Franklydear I would have been awake at that time, but I've been so so busy I'm finding it hard to keep up!
WT actual F with your colleagues?? That's bullying and harassment. That shit would get a person fired and the company sued over here!
Sorry to hear about more restrictions and anxiety for you. So tough, but you can do it! 👊🏼

@Sausage1990 that sounds like a frustrating and very difficult process to have to deal with, but I'm so glad you have felt supported and are happy with the plan in place. I hope your body knows what to do with itself over the coming week xx

@Minster2012 oh I watched Rebecca earlier this week too! Liked it a lot!
You're so good at remembering little things about everyone ☺️ yes OH has had some serious issues with his parents (his dad actually flew out to the US tonight to reunite with 'the love of his life' 🙄) so yeah it's all quite full on at the moment. Lots of emotion in our house.
Can't believe your house is set up for bondage sessions?! Did I understand that right? Do you have a swing..? Shackles built in?? Tell me more.

@Vil10 perhaps it's a good thing that your OH is thinking and saying those things? Means you can share the emotional load of TTC with him 💗

@lucyrp I am impressed by your commitment to the lollies 🍭🍬

Thank you all so much for the words of love and concern over the last week or so ❤️ it really does mean a lot. To all who have asked about or suggested counselling, yes you are right and OH and I are both very open and willing to do that, so we will probably start in the coming weeks.
I realise that what I've told you all about my OH probably makes him seem like a bit of an arsehole, but I think as a general rule he's not. I'm hoping it's just an arsehole phase.
We've faced SO many challenges during our relationship, but have always been very much in love and battled through together. I really hope that we can manage to get through this too.
The house I'm renovating is nearly finished (I've been putting furniture in and hanging pictures today - fun!!) and once it's sold will take a HUUUGE load off both our shoulders. Perhaps after that he will agree to TTC and we can live happily ever after.... 😜

Skip86 · 31/10/2020 13:51

Oh and @Runnergirl1 how's that line going? Hope you're ok and it's getting darker xx

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 14:00

@Skip86 it is brush under boys will be boys, and nobody ever gets fired, ... I can do this, I have my family and friends, and all of you to support me, I feel better about it than the first time, plus this time I am not sick, so that’s a plus.

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 14:12

@Skip86 on your situation, flip that house, relax a little, have fun with each other, and then talk again, we’ve been together 20+ years, there’s up and downs but is not over 💐

Chlo2701 · 31/10/2020 14:52

[quote lucyrp]@Chlo2701 what we thinking ?🙈[/quote]
It's still high @lucyrp so there's still hope for you🤞🏻 I've only got as far as your msg yesterday so apologies if you've posted again today🙈 I'm just catching up from yesterday afternoon

lucyrp · 31/10/2020 14:53

@Chlo2701 its dropped down today by 4bpm so I think I'm out🙈

Runnergirl1 · 31/10/2020 15:14

@Skip86. I haven’t retested today I’ve stayed away from them today although I do have 4 frer’s now in the house. But going to wait until tomorrow or Monday to hopefully see extra progression or a bfn whatever it will be 🤦🏼‍♀️

Kirky658 · 31/10/2020 15:34

@skip86 I've also been thinking about you, really hope that the two of you can sort things out. ❤️

I've been dead naughty this week as we've both been off I've treated myself and had several drinks as I vowed to stop when TTC... Loving it though!!! Best stop Monday as back at work.

I've decided to go for the interview and see what happens. My current job is causing me so much stress which I know can't be good for TTC so I'm hopeful this could be a new start for me... It would mean a large paycut but happiness is worth more right?

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 15:37

@Kirky658 happiness is worth a lot, for TTC and for life, if I learned something in this pandemic is that you cannot microplan everything, guilty of that, so unable to know what next week will bring, we need to learn to adapt more and make do more, I wish you the job and the baby

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 15:39

DH is asleep on the sofa and D's watching Minecraft videos on the Tele, I am bored out of my mind, will wake up one in a bit and take the control of the other, I am too full of sugar to move or complain at the moment

Chlo2701 · 31/10/2020 15:44

@lucyrp oh shit has it😣 if it drops again tomorrow then I would say that AF will be here in next few days🙄🤦‍♀️

lucyrp · 31/10/2020 15:51

@Chlo2701 yeah this is today's ☹️🙈 weird it's going down so soon though. I didn't think RHR went down 4 days before AF?

Kirky658 · 31/10/2020 16:10

@franklydear thank you lovely, means a lot. We are in the pub 😅

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 16:33

@Kirky658 enjoy while we can, I decided to do some knitting while dh naps and ds does minecraft, one day I’ll decide this blanket is long enough and finish it🤣🤩

Kirky658 · 31/10/2020 16:48

@franklydear our thoughts exactly! Usually DH is a huge games nerd so nice to get him out of the house 😂

lucyrp · 31/10/2020 16:49

@Franklydear actually sounds like wales isn't going to be a part of the next lockdown so fingers crossed for me 😬🤣🤞🏼

Vil10 · 31/10/2020 16:54

@Newbie0818 he said it's the best thing he's ever bought me😂

@Skip86 I did think that, I was just shocked because he's usually the one keeping it together, but it seems he wants this just as much as me and just handles the disappointment of af every month differently! I'm glad your OH is open to counselling, I really hope the sale of your renovated house releases some stress for you both so you can spend some quality time together and have a bit of fun!x

notyetamumbuttrying · 31/10/2020 16:55

@lucyrp we got referred 24th sept, it went to the hospital the next day and we've been waiting ever since. I've also found out that we speak to some other unit first before actually being referred to the assisted conception unit so god knows how long it'll all take. Has your OH done his SA yet?
@Katao glad your cycles are getting better, that's great!
@2020mission I'll go on hunt soon my dear 😉 sounds like a fun weekend! I'm off to a pub quiz tonight. Saw my parents and sister earlier, which was nice! Might be the last time for a while if this national lockdown rumour is true 🙄
Hope everyone's well, sorry I'm not tagging everyone but I am reading. Lots of love 💕

lucyrp · 31/10/2020 16:57

@notyetamumbuttrying no he hasn't, the doctor has just referred me singularly and said when he gets round to doing it they can add him on. I'm hoping my referral will be quicker as it'll be a clinic at the local cottage hospital

Chlo2701 · 31/10/2020 16:58

@lucyrp yeah mine went down continuously for about 4/5
Days last month before the bitch came!🙄

Franklydear · 31/10/2020 16:58

@lucyrp hopefully not, you already had a lot of restrictions, and Wales doesn’t seem to be doing so badly, you don’t need Westminster clowns on top of that, I’ll be watching the announcement, quite a few of my friends have ‘non essential ‘ businesses, only fully open in august, people cannot leave on air, others on travel industry, and that’s a joke, myself, I don’t know, shielding was pretty bad and came with its own problems, I am going to have to have a chat at work to minimise my risk, but at this point, I don’t want to stay home permanently

lucyrp · 31/10/2020 16:59

@Chlo2701 I was hoping this month would be it. We only had sex on the day of ov and not for a week before or after without knowing it was ov so thought it could be fate 🤣 oh well at least I've managed to pinpoint ovulation if AF does come in 3 days
