Thanks @Lynne425 I’m glad your AF rocked up after all of the stuff you’ve gone through. That’s a wise decision. We all forget to look after ourselves! I’m so glad gyms are open!

@8LPS thanks so much for your kind words. Just feel like a disappointment! Is it bad that now it’s like oh AF is here and we don’t bat an eyelid lol. Ooh that’s good. I’m booked in for scans and blood tests on 20th may and then consultation on 25th may so that’s something to look forward to!!!

Hi lovely ones, it's been ages!
I must admit I have stayed away from forums; like I said before, I find myself looking for scare stories for some weird reason, and I realised it is just stressing me out! It's a shame all the worry has been robbing me of excitement, but I think I am ready to be excited now and not let all the possible problems worry me, as there are so many. My husband said to me yesterday "you're quite glass half-empty, aren't you?" and I realised I was robbing him of the excitement too, then I felt mean and stupid!
I've been thinking of you all and just hoping so much you get your BFP's. Came on here for a little peek, it doesn't look like you post very much any more. Especially @AKcheer, @8LPS, @KerryW87 and @Lynne425 - we have all been in it together for such a long time! It feels so weird not talking to you regularly.
Wishing you all the best and I hope to sneak back on here one day and see good news for you all. You so deserve it xxxx

Hi @Rose2108
Hope you are well 💕

I know I miss the chat on this forum too - but like the others I think some of us are just needing a break.

My AF came bang on 28 days following surgery but we decided not to actively TTC for a few months to give me a break but what happens happens!!

Was my birthday at the weekend and I enjoyed a few cocktails to celebrate x

Hi ladies, so nice to hear from you! I’ve been quiet too but have been peeking in from time to time.

@Rose2108 how are you? Hope you are feeling ok. How many weeks are you now?

@Lynne425 hope you had a lovely bday :)

I’m on CD20 of cycle 11. Felt fairly relaxed this cycle, maybe because there’s more going on now outside of TTC and generally more distractions! Although I’m 4DPO and definitely feeling the symptom spotting coming back 😂

@Rose2108 Aww it's so lovely to hear from you!

It's funny I think a lot of us must've been going through a similar phase and taking a break from the forums - I'm now 10dpo on cycle 10 and a BFN today. Three more women I know are expecting and I think I finally hit breaking point the other week when my sister was quite insensitive to me - so I started cycling to and from my work every day (9 miles a day!) and trying to focus on anything OTHER than TTC! Lost two pounds which is nice, trying to stay positive and keep my mind active with other things too so hopefully that helps :)

I'm so glad you're finally feeling that excitement! You so deserve to feel that way! 💕💕 How far along are you now?

@AKcheer @JLP256 @Lynne425 @8LPS I hope everyone else is doing ok? Hoping the easing of lockdown helps us a lot...we can finally make PLANS AGAIN! 😂🎉 xx

Hi can I join? Been ttc since last July, had a MC after conceiving at the end of feb and now ttc again
I'm currently 13dpo and 3 days late for AF (very short luteal phase). Tested bfn on 10dpo and 12dpo.
Really felt like I was pg this time as experienced severe symptoms. Anyone ever had a first bfp later than 12dpo?

Hello everyone! Yes long time no speak! How are you all? 🌷♥️

@Rose2108 - how are you feeling?? I’m not going to tell you to just relax because that is just the most unhelpful thing that someone can say 😂 I totally understand what you mean though!! For a long time during TTC, I would Google my symptoms and check if they are pregnancy or AF symptoms A LOT, and is complete online quizzes as well - loads of them. But since I stopped doing that a few months ago, the anxiety has just disappeared! lol the things we do that we think help us, but it’s the worst things for us!!! 🙈🥴 you’re not mean and stupid, you’re just trying to get your head around things and protect yourself the way your brain knows how. And it’s totally understandable! ♥️ have you tried doing any mindfulness? There’s a nice type of mindfulness called ‘Leaves On A Stream’ and it’s for if you’re having racing thoughts. I quite like that one myself but haven’t practiced it in a looooong time 🙈 ooop!

@KerryW87 - hey! I’m so sorry you got a BFN. I guess you can have a couple of cheeky drinks now! 🤣 a few weeks ago, just before AF came, I had some soft cheeses and a glass of Prosecco and it was AMAZINGGG 😋😆

How is everyone doing?? I remember that someone were doing courses, house hunting, have moved house etc.. how is all of that going?

I’m a couple of days post ovulation so just entered the TWW. I’ll try not to go insane 😂 but on the plus side, bank holiday weekend has started early for me as we have today off work. Going out for brunch soon - our FIRST meal out since last summer!!! 😱🎉 hope you’re all ok xxxx

HI everyone hope you're well. @Rose2108 hope you're pregnancy is going well

Hey everyone! It’s nice to see people are back using the forum again, seems like a lot of us needed a bit of a break. Hope you’re all doing okay 🥰

@8LPS sorry it’s taken so long to get back to you!! Hahah brilliant story about Jimmy Carr 😂 good to know someone was interested in it! Glad to hear the job all worked out, hopefully there will be an opportunity for you to do HIT at some point soon. I’ve actually got an interview next week for senior post but it’s just a secondment while the current lady is on maternity (ironic I know!) - not getting my hopes up but we’ll see.
I’m still nowhere closer to my BFP, tracking BBT around my fertile dates but hasn’t helped much. Blood tests showed that my progesterone was low meaning I didn’t ovulate, but GP said I shouldn’t have done it on day 21 as my cycles are 33 days. So doing a day 3 and day 26 blood in my next cycle which will hopefully be more accurate 🤞🏼 How are you getting on? I read that you’ve got an appointment with fertility clinic end of May so I hope it goes well xx

Aw @Rose2108 so good to hear you’re doing well, you definitely deserve to be excited - please keep us updated on how you’re getting on xx

Sending positive vibes to everyone, hope you’re all enjoying the restrictions easing and hopefully we get some better weather soon! I have definitely found that I’m less stressed about TTC now there is more going on and things to keep me busy. Keeping my fingers crossed that one of us will get our BFP soon 🤞🏼💞

I totally get it ladies! It all gets a bit much and you just need time to yourself. I have been trying to get out for more walks and listen to some audiobooks, it's also nice to see friends and make plans for better times! Holiday is off the cards for us this year as we've decided it just isn't worth it, but I'm sure we will do something nice closer to home.

@Lynne425 happy belated birthday; it's nice you are taking things easy and I think you're amazing for just getting on with things! I feel like I would be obsessing and going crazy. Your sister must be due soon, I'm sure that is a bag of mixed emotions for you!

Hi @JLP256 the symptom spotting haha I forgot all about that! I used to keep notes in my app, I'm sure half of it was in my head! Lol. The distraction of normal life is great isn't it? I feel like I was just in my head all the time and feeling so moody a few months ago!

@KerryW87 Every BFP from a friend is such a blow isn't it. Was your sister insensitive re your TTC? No one else knows how you feel unless you are going through it, it's really hard. I think this is why a lot of people choose not to tell people as everyone has something to say don't they! Well done on the cycling and weight loss. Hope it helps your mind!!

@8LPS still just gardening, walking, cooking & eating!! Not much has changed haha! Trying to sort some of the house out but getting a builder in is harder than getting pregnant aha, they're all fully booked! Might give tiling a go myself!! That sounds good, I actually do quite a lot of relaxation, I often listen to an audiobook and do some colouring! I'm like a child haha.

@AKcheer So glad you have got some support with messaging some other ladies, you just need to vent sometimes don't you! How is your hubby doing? Sounds really positive you have a fertility check up, though hopefully you won't need it :)

Hey @BumbleB1 those blood tests are a pain, I defo ignored the date they told me to go, as I knew I wouldn't have ovulated by then. Hope you have better luck next time. I am doing well now thank you and starting to feel more human again!!

Thanks all so much for your lovely comments. Goes for all of you that I am just hoping it happens soon for you! I am 15 weeks now, so at that awkward phase where I just look fat and most things don't fit! Still WFH a few days a week so making do with some floaty dresses for work :) Doesn't feel real if I am honest with you gals...

Baby dust!!! xxxxx

Hey everyone, hope you’re all ok?

@BumbleB1 - hey! Aw seriously don’t worry about it! It’s good to take a break sometimes. Good luck with going for the SPWP! Did you have the interview yet?
I’m really sorry your blood tests showed that you didn’t ovulate. Or could it just be that you didn’t have the blood test on the correct day..? I hope your next blood tests go as you hope them to go! Keep us posted!

@Rose2108 - hellooo! Defo understand your decision to not want to go abroad this year - a staycation sounds lovely! 🙂 do you have anywhere in mind yet?
What kind of things are you eating at the mo if you don’t mind me asking? Are you just sticking to healthy things or are you allowing yourself to have a treat now n then as well?
LOL adult colouring is soo addictive!!! I have a mindful colouring book myself - my husband has even joined me in doing a spot of colouring in the past! 😂
Have you told your workplace about your exciting news yet? Yes please, please sprinkle your baby dust on usssss!!! 😩😁

AF came yesterday, 1 day late. So that means I’ve been TTC for 1 year 2 months now.

Girls, long story short, the hospital rebooked my tel appointment that was supposed to be at the end of this month, and they let me attend it a few days ago and I just wanted to let you guys know of the procedure in case you wanted to know:
Ok so first she asked me standard qs: mine and husband’s weight, height, DOBs, alcohol consumption, any history of pgs. The standard stuff.
We discussed next steps:

1. She’s booked me an ultrasound to look for lumps, cysts, things like that. Waiting list she predicts will be like 2-3 months.
2. Optional ‘tube test’ (keyhole surgery). This will tell us whether my tubes are open (which will then label us as having ‘unexplained fertility issues’) or closed (this is labelled as a ‘tubal factor’. Options are to keep trying ourselves unaided, or to go for IVF). The tube test itself she said is a bit painful as they put a catheter into the womb and put in a dye to see what’s going on 😳 lol. Tube repair procedures are not recommended because of v low success rates, so she did not offer this to me. Before the tube test, need to do chlamydia test and other vaj swabs.

Personally I think I’ll just go for the tube test if I need it.

I am hoping that nobody needs to even go through any of the above, but I just wanted let you know. Xx

Soo so good to hear everyone is doing well and keeping themselves healthy! Nice to see a bit of talk happening again, even through some much needed break.

@8LPS sorry about AF coming on yesterday, though it's good to see they are getting some options for you. I was actually scheduled for my tube test after ttc for so long when I had to cancel it three days before from a positive. I do remember reading and being optimistic though that the test can improve chances for a few months after.

@Rose2108 such good news that you are feeling better and less anxious, getting outside and walking makes a difference. Have you been feeling okay?

@AKcheer so good to hear you are keeping busy and doing what you need to stay positive! Fingers crossed you don't have to wait much longer and the private clinic you booked with can get some answers xx

@KerryW87 so good to hear from you and that you are doing well. Biking to work everyday sounds lovely and like an excellent way to focus on something other than the frustrations of ttc!

@Rose2108 ahh I should’ve thought about it but just went with what he said, never mind at least I’ve got them booked again so will see what happens from there. Aw lovely to hear that you’re well 🥰 don’t blame you not wanting to go on holiday this year, it’s nice to make the most of being able to see friends and family and stay closer to home!

Thanks @8LPS it was nice to not be thinking about TTC all of the time! Thank you but I found out yesterday I didn’t get it, was gutted tbh and had a bit of a cry but I’ve convinced myself that maybe there was a reason I didn’t get it and perhaps better things are coming my way... 🤞🏼🙏🏼 I don’t think bloods were taken on the right day, will find out more after my day 3 and day 26 bloods so should know by end of June. How are you? Thank you for updating us on that process, it’s sounds really thorough which is good, and it’s nice that you were given options. I’d probably go for the tube test as well if needed. Please keep us updated with it all, but here’s hoping you won’t need to do any of it ✨

How is everyone feeling about being able to hug?! And going indoors? It’s so strange that we can now touch people lol, but it was the best feeling squeezing my parents 🥰❤️

Hey all, how are you??

@jules5232 - aw thank you for your encouraging words! I’m hoping to magically get pregnant without having the tube test but if that’s what it takes for it to happen then great! ☺️ how are you getting on? What cycle are you on at the mo?

@BumbleB1 - you ok? oh no I’m so sorry you didn’t get it! That sucks! I’m sure you did your absolute best, and you never know - they may have been naughty and already had someone else in mind to take the job.. was the SPWP job at your current service or another one? I totally agree - this one didn’t work out cus there’s something else waiting for you to grab ♥️
I’m ok thank you..I wasn’t ok when AF came a couple of weeks ago but soon managed to snap out of it. I guess the one tiny good thing about knowing I’m not pg this month is that I can do something that I wouldn’t be able to do if I was!!: tomorrow night I’m going to a drive thru cinema with my mates for a viewing of Insidious 2 - and there are actors dressed up that jump out at your car before and during the movie 😂 it sounds like a silly thing but I am REALLY excited cus I went to a horror house with these same girls a couple of years ago and we all crapped ourselves it was hilarious.. so I think it’s a bit of a tradition now haha. But yeah, JUST to have plans is such an amazing feeling 😍🥰
Have you been up to anything since the last reading of restrictions? Aww so glad you’ve hugged your parents 🥰😭 I hugged my Mum yesterday for the first time since last February so that was lovely! I struggled to make her let go of me tho! 😂🥺

The weekend is nearly here ladies! 🥳🤩 have you got anything planned? Hope you’re having a lovely day all xx

Hi girls,

I just wanted to jump on here quickly to vent please. I’m really upset and I didn’t know who else to turn to.

Me and my husband went to visit his family at the weekend and his uncle turned up too. He asked me if we have any babies yet. I just checked my pockets, said nope and laughed it off. But THEN he turned to my husband, sort of slapped him on the back and jokingly said while laughing, “what, do you need a Doctor or something?”. To say I was seething was an understatement. My eyes kept filling up straight away and I struggled to get them to stop!!! I don’t understand how people can say stupid things?!!??! 😢😠 this uncle by the way, doesn’t have any kids himself!!! My husband’s whole family have always made comments about us having babies literally since we got married, and the comments were really annoying when we weren’t TTC. But now, it actually means something, and they really don’t know how much they are hurting me. I could’ve punched him square in the face when he slapped my husband’s back too! How disrespectful.

To make matters worse, me and my husband have had a huge fight about it. I basically cried all the way home yesterday, and I told him how upset I feel. My husband is SO logical and chilled out that he just couldn’t understand why that Uncle’s words weighed so heavy on me. He said that we haven’t seen that Uncle in like 2 years so why is it bothering me so much? I couldn’t believe my ears. I think he was more upset that I’d put a downer on him seeing his family for the first time in ages. But I didn’t mean to. I was prepared to just laugh it off at first because I knew we’d get comments - but what he said to my husband really hit hard.

I’ve tried to look at it from my husband’s POV and I get what he’s trying to say, but ultimately my feelings have been hurt and he should be way more caring and understanding.

Anyways thanks for letting me vent. I’m trying to work but I can’t really concentrate and I felt like this could help! What’s worse is that I’m in my fertile window but I don’t want to be near him the way I’m feeling right now!!! Feel free to tell me that my husband’s being a douchebag, because I think so as well 😂

@8LPS Hey girl how are you? I messaged you back yesterday sorry for late reply xx
God this is awful. Obviously, this uncle is a twat. And he doesn’t care about other peoples feelings. It’s just bloody rude he said that and to be honest if he hasn’t got kids, maybe he doesn’t have the desire to have kids he doesn’t know how it feels. And you know men, they are so insincere. Just sounds like a guy who’s a bit full of himself and thinks he’s funny. I’m surprised you didn’t punch him!
It’s not great how upset you were and how your husband didn’t get it. Thing is they are men and sometimes they don’t get this stuff! And as it stands, you’ll be going through some tests and the thoughts you have, even your husband might not fully understand either. I’m not siding with him but sometimes they really don’t get it and they don’t panic as much as us women. And if you agreed you’d laugh things off then he probably does think what’s going on here. The problem is, it’s his family too so he probably just pars it off even more. It’s such a horrible comment to make but don’t argue about it with your hubby. Not his fault his uncle is a douche bag!! It’s hard because it’s hit hard for you but not with your husband. Stuff like this is so hard, but sometimes no matter what we need to put a resting bitch face and bite o it tongue (yea it’s easier said than done I know I know!!!!)

I don’t know if I’ve helped but if you’re in your fertile window you need his sperm!! Make up sex??

Oh @8LPS that is awful! I remember how much all those comments used to affect us before we even started trying; luckily we were TTC in lockdown so didn't have to face any of those selfish and stupid comments, whilst going through one of the most stressful times in our lives.

I have a feeling (if your husband is anything like mine), he is probably embarrassed and doesn't want to make a big deal out of it. My husband will always brush off comments other people make, but when I say something, we end up having a row, if that makes any sense. I think they choose to pretend they're not bothered as it's easier than admitting they're upset!

It's just shit and the last thing you need, I'd be upset too if he didn't see my side! We had a row this weekend too! Too long a story but I think he just over reacted and I had enough of his sulking and snapped lol. He has apologised today. I thought I was the one who was supposed to be emotional right now?!

You will feel much better later on and hopefully you can laugh about it... x

Hi @BumbleB1, did you manage to sort out the tests properly this month?! I am enjoying a bit of normality, defo made the most of it this weekend and caught up with lots of friends. Loving going back into the office too!

@jules5232 I am feeling great at the moment thank you! I have a few weird symptoms and hips are starting to hurt a lot at night, but mentally I feel really good and relaxed, finally! Lol. How are you?

@8LPS I'm still having porridge most mornings with some fruit and nuts and honey, though some mornings I have crumpets instead. I've been having lots of soup for lunch, made some for the freezer (like mushroom, sweet P, leek & potato), and for dinners we've been having lentil bolognese with whole-wheat spaghetti, stir fry, aubergine curry, mexican egg/bean/tomato dishes... I got some orzo and did that with fennel and veggie sausages and veg, was lovely! I use BBC good food a lot!

xxx

Hey girls, aw man I really appreciate your replies. Thank you so much. I might’ve overreacted about the comment, and I feel like I’ve calmed down a bit now. Just really wanted support from my husband more than anything, but he is ok with people making jokes like that and I’m really not.

@Rose2108 - thanks so much for your message! Yeah, those comments are just so backwards and people really need to think twice before opening their big gobs!
My husband isn’t even embarrassed about that kind of thing “, just takes it on the chin haha verrry strange to me! Whereas for me, I’m really embarrassed because in my head, the person is essentially asking about our sex life, and esp when it’s family members asking it feels > 🤢🤢🤢🤢
I’m sorry you and your husband had a row as well! Urgh, men! I hope you’ve made up now and talked it through after he came and apologised.
Your orzo dish sounds lovely, I’ve never used it before but want to find a recipe - there’s one in Pinch of Nom, and I’ll look on BBC Good Food as well! 🙂 it sounds like you’re keeping really healthy, how do you feel? Can you feel anything in your tummy area yet or is it too early for that?

@AKcheer - thing is, I was gobsmacked by what he said - I always thought this guy was so nice! That opinion has defo changed now 😠 lol I’m so petty about holding grudges 🙈 his wife tried to quieten him down but it didn’t work. He even called another woman in the room fat - to her face!!! I’ll be on guard next time I have to see him. Me and husband didn’t agree that we’d laugh it off - I just thought to myself that I’ll laugh off the comments. But when he mentioned needing a doctor, I silently flipped out. I went to Ikea with my MIL and SIL the day before that, and MIL said a comment when we walked into the children’s section, but I laughed that off as well.
I know, you’re so right - he just doesn’t get it. The Uncle said it in jest so in my husband’s eyes, it’s nothing to be upset about because it wasn’t serious. Maybe I did work myself up a bit too much, but I’m feeling a bit better now. I wasn’t asking my husband to defend himself or say anything to the Uncle, just to have some empathy for me because this whole TTC thing is affecting me more than it is him. Me and husband have made up now, still feeling a little bit down but I’ll get over it. After I read your message where you said not to argue with hubby about it, I went to talk to him about it - so thanks for helping in that way too! 🙂
Haha I like your way of thinking! We DTD last night, so we won’t DTD again till tomorrow. We started arguing afterwards. Forgot to do my OPK this morning but will do one tomorrow morning.

@8LPS aw thank you, it is what it is and hopefully it will all work out fine in the end! Yeah I thought that as well, probably had her earmarked. It was at my current service, so my interview was with two of my managers which I found even harder! Ooh how was the cinema experience? I’m no good with being scared hahah but hopefully you enjoyed it?! We saw some friends at the weekend for a few drinks, AF came but it was good to be able to drink and not feel worried about it so I didn’t mind too much 🤣

Sorry to hear you had a rubbish time with your husband’s uncle’s comment and not feeling supported by your husband 👎🏼 People can be so insensitive so I don’t blame you for feeling upset by it! I agree that your husband probably just didn’t really get why it bothered you so much or perhaps he didn’t want to acknowledge that it affected him too? Hopefully you’ve both sorted things though, it’s a shame to let someone else’s comment affect you both. I wonder if there was something in the air though cos me and my partner had a row yesterday too!! Nothing major but it just escalated and that hasn’t happened in a long time. Let’s hope you don’t have to deal with anymore comments like that, or if you do maybe your husband will be more supportive cos now he’ll understand how much they affect you.

Hi @Rose2108 how are you getting on? My day 3 test is tomorrow and then I have the next one on day 26, AF came early so the timings aren’t exact but doctor said that shouldn’t be a problem. Partner has now also agreed to get things checked on his part too which is good. Aw bet it’s been lovely catching up with friends especially now you’ve got good news to talk about! And it’s good you’re enjoying being back in the office, I know a lot of people aren’t keen on going back (myself included!) but I’m sure when it happens we’ll all enjoy it more than we think 🤞🏼

Hope everyone has a good week and weekend, I’ve got some annual leave coming up and a trip to Bournemouth which will be nice, just hoping the weather improves 🙏🏼 Xx

@BumbleB1 - hey! Ohh dear having an interview with people you know is so difficult! At least when you don’t know them, you can really big yourself up knowing that they don’t know a thing about you lol! Exactly, another opportunity will come around 🙂🙂
The cinema experience was really good thanks! I went my mate and her sister so it was more fun just catching up with them more than anything. We talked through parts of the movie though 😁 it was just so nice doing something normal!!!
Aw thank you, it was a dick comment for him to make. I laughed it off when my MIL said “come on [my bane], look at all this kids stuff” when we were in Ikea. I laughed it off when that Uncle asked me “any babies yet?”. But yeah, that comment about needing a doctor didn’t sit well with me at all. But ah well, I don’t have to see his face again for a long time 🥳 haha! Yeah, I do hate that it made us fight but I wasn’t asking my husband to say anything to his Uncle, just wanted him to back me up in private and show a bit of empathy.
Ugh, there’s definitely something in the air with everyone having rows! I’m sorry you had one as well! I think all the stress of TTC sometimes just gets a bit too much and makes us erupt! Let’s just hope we’ve got it all out of our system cus we don’t need anymore stress at the mo with everything else that’s going on.
How long will you be inBournemouth for? The weather is absolutely beautiful where I am so I’m giving you sunny vibes for your trip away! ☀️☀️

Hope everyone is having a lovely bank holiday so far ♥️

@8LPS sorry for such a late reply, as I'm sure you probably feel better about it now, but what an awful thing to say to someone! Especially when he hasnt been through it personally. I'm sorry he did that and that your husband didnt try to relate to how it might make you feel. Hopefully if anything ever happens like that again he will know to have your back.

@Rose2108 I'm glad to hear you've been feeling better and are positive. In sure things are moving along even better now. Hip pain is definitely a shared issue! I've been feeling good, had the anatomy scan and all looks healthy and well, so I am happy about that!

Ok guys, I seriously cannot believe I am posting this message, but I finally have my BFP, after a year and 3 months of TTC 😱😳 we are in shock, to say the least. I didn’t actually think it would happen for me but to our amazement it has. I honestly feel so bad posting this, because I know how it feels while TTC whenever someone announces a pregnancy, what the tinge of sadness feels like, so I really am sorry 🥺

But I am literally an open book. I can talk symptoms (even the more embarrassing symptoms like constipation 🙊) for all my fellow symptom spotters lol I know cus I’m an extreme symptom spotter!!! I don’t think I’ve really had some of the more “normal” pregnancy symptoms such as increased cervical mucus, changes to breasts/nipples, spotting etc. I’m kinda nervous about that tbh.
For the last few days I have thought I’ve got food poisoning LOL because I’ve been experiencing diarrhoea and vomiting. Vomiting started Sunday night and stopped mid-morning Monday. The nausea has stayed with me. The vomming and diarrhoea came on all of a sudden which led me to believe its food poisoning, as I’ve had it a few times previously. Another symptom I’ve had is like a pressure type feeling in my lower abdo area - this esp hurts when I sneeze, laugh or cough. Took my temp on Tuesday and it was 37.8, so slightly elevated.

Things I’ve been doing while TTC:
Conceive Plus tablets, Conceive Plus lube (the one you insert) - I can’t say for sure that these contributed though because I’ve been using these both for a few months now. Also taking extra vitamin d tablets, DTD every other day during fertile window, and DTD every 3-5 days or so outside of that, no caffeinated coffee/tea unless AF arrives, little tiny amount of alcohol when AF arrives, legs up after sex. I think that’s it from what I can remember at the mo.
All of these things above I have been doing all throughout TTC so honestly I just think it was sheer luck we’ve done it this time. I’m obviously nervous that things can go wrong. I am really sorry if this post upsets anyone, I really don’t mean to - I just needed to word-vomit my shock!!! 😳

@8LPS Congratulations!!!! That is such wonderful news. You didn't even need to have your tubal test! Don't be nervous about what symptoms you do/don't have as everyone is different - just try to enjoy it.

Omg @8LPS this is amazing!! Congratulations!! I am so happy for you!! What an amazing and beautiful day for you!!! You give me so much hope 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Xx
