Please tag anyone I’ve missed from the old thread.

I’m currently enjoying my first glass of wine in about 10 weeks. Will happily give up alcohol for a baby but no baby I need alcohol 😂

Really hope that’s the start of a BFP for you @Babyghirl let us know when you test in the morning.

@Annny27 Sorry it looks like AF has arrived.

@Nuggetlover27 Fingers crossed for a positive FW

@sweetbabydust1989
Could well be implantation fingers crossed that it is for you, but if it is leave it a couple of days to test as can take up to two days after for it to show up so I say Tuesday to test but you could do it tomorrow and then Wednesday 💚💚

@Babyghirl I won't be testing for well over a week no point until I get a late period xx

Sorry you find yourself here @danisaui31

@Sweetbabydust1989 that sounds promising, that was a pg symptom for me, feeling soaking wet 😂 always thought it was AF so would go to the toilet and check and nope. And I don't usually get much cm normally. 🤞🏻 for you.

@kiwi17 sorry you're feeling rubbish - you didn't waste 6 weeks though as you were trying so you gave it your best shot. Baby dust for this cycle ✨

CD12 for me, first proper cycle post mc. I used to be 28/29 days with ov cd14/15. I got my first period 26/27 days post erpc so don't know if cycles are now a bit shorter as one app was predicting ovulation today, and I've had a high on opk. This is my first cycle with the easy at home opks, I had the one step ones before which were crap, could hardly tell my peak from my cycle when I fell pg in January but seemed quite a short surge. I'll keep testing hopefully see what's happening 🤞🏻

@sweetbabydust1989
I don't test to I'm late either would rather c my period than a nagitive test lol but everything crossed for u 💚
@justwant2beamum
Everything crossed for u this cycle to my period just around the corner will properly be here bot 8 tonite as it always comes around that time lol 💚

@kiwi17
Sorry she on her way, but you did not waste 6 weeks you done your best and that ends with the sex it's up to r body's to do the rest of the work you done all you could onwards and upwards for nxt month you got this 💚🍀

@27DONFIN Thanks so much, I'm actually grateful to have come across this thread. I think what drives me crazy the most is that I'm the last girl in the family to have a child and now that I am married my family are constantly asking "when are you going to have a baby" etc and even though they aren't saying it in an insensitive way, it's like a slap in the face. Everyone sneezes and falls pregnant without trying, I just wish it was the same for me. We have been trying since the MC and it's just so frustrating not getting the BFP we hope for each month, but all we can do is be patient. Hubby is my rock, he always assures me that there is no rush and that things will eventually happen for us. That is such good advice though, I never want TTC to consume me so much that it takes over my relationship, so I'll always keep that in mind that's for that! Good luck with your TTC journey, baby dust from me to you always!

@Annny27 I think I will follow your footsteps and just relax as much as I can. I've recently began to make time to start reading books again in the evening before I got to bed. A couple chapters while I sip some herbal tea to end my night, I feel like it's "me time" and takes my mind off googling all of my symptoms. It's been a month since I've begun and it has really relaxed me, I guess thinking up scenarios about what I'm reading takes the pressure off my brain wondering why I'm not falling pregnant haha. A relaxed approach is what I aim to do in the upcoming months, I'll track my CM and test with opks when I think I'm about to O and see how things go from there. Baby dust to you, hope your rainbow comes along soon 

@kiwi17 You may think you are no shining example for TTC, but this entire group is. We have all had our dark days, yet still grasp for the light at the tunnel. In my opinion it just shows how strong we are, even in the moments we want to give up. I find that I'm fine when a new cycle begins but once I know I have ovulated I feel super nervous and after my first week in the TWW I drive myself nuts googling every single possibility for the little ache I felt in my back or the crazy bloating or spotting I've seen hahaha, I am my own worst enemy! I've never tried BBT tracking, I was going to try but feel like I'd be in your boat when I have my days off lol. I like my little sleep ins with no interruptions >.< I'll continue to try my hardest to take the relaxed approach for my next cycle, AF is meant to arrive in the next couple days. All the best for you girly!

@Babyghirl Hello! Since reading this thread from start to finish I was amazed at how optimistic and completely transparent you are! No one deserves to go through what you have gone and I am so sorry to hear about your loss's. Wishing you all the best with conceiving on your own or through IVF if conceiving beforehand does not work. Your little rainbow will be with you soon I'm sure of it! Thank you for sharing your story and assuring me this is a safe place to share my thoughts in, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my chest. Just being able to discuss how I feel to ladies who can relate to me makes me feel so light now!

@danisaui31
Us ladies will all get r happy endings might nt happen this month maybe not even nxt month or month after that but when we do we will have so much love for that little baby cause we fought so hard to have them, just hope when it happens for us it happens around the same time so we can share the same support but only on a different level, this thread is like my wee virtual family alway here when I need a rant and we will be here when u need to rant aswell 😂😂😂😂😂😂, but yes do try and relax and don't let ttc take over cause timed sex deffo takes the fun out off it I don't track I just go with it now and have sex every two days so I know we have covered everything and it helps me to not stress out chin up you will get there when you least expect it 💚🍀 and thank you for your kind words 💚

Period arrived 3 days early! At 13dpo instead of the usual 15/16

Kinda annoying because now I will be ovulating on the day of hycosy/ potentially before which means maybe a missed month. Ahh well a time to relax haha

@danisaui31 ooh good idea with the book before bed- stops me googling ttc stuff haha. I might follow suit!

@babyghirl looks like we may be cycle buddies again! (Unless she stays away for you which I hope!)

@Babyghirl No worries at all and wow how amazing would that be right if we all did conceive around the same time!!! I've been diary writing since January just every couple days and to track my cycle on paper so I can stick my opks into it. This is the only way I've been able to debrief all my frustration lol, so now that I can actually rant about something and get a response on how you all would approach the situation is a god send! That's good actually to have sex every two days, then I really don't have to worry because all bases are covered. I'll try that this cycle. Here's to 2022 babies for us all!!!

@Annny27 Yeah for sure, sometimes I'm in bed reading and my head starts nodding because I'm getting so sleepy hahaha saves the endless Google searching and I sleep at a decent hour now.

Actually I would love a 2022 baby now @danisaui31 My mum (passed away when I was a teen) was 1962, I am 1992 and then maybe my baby can be 2022 ❤❤❤ so all 30 years apart

@danisaui31 that can’t be easy. My partner and I are lucky our parents only knew about our pregnancy and they’ve never mentioned about trying since. Yeah I feels like it comes so easy to everyone else which adds to the frustration. Especially as I think a lot of people just take it for granted and don’t understand how it feels for those who struggle it’s a total head fuck. I’m so glad I founds these girls I don’t anyone else understand unless it’s happened to them.

@Annny27 sorry flo is here but I defo think 2022 is the year for you xx

@Annny27 so sorry to hear! That would be so special though, I really hope this happens for you.

@Annny27
Yep think we r in sync most months 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 gs but she still nt here lol.
@danisaui31
Yea takes the stress out of it all like did we do it enough lol and helps u to relax knowing you covered it all
@27DONFIN
Hello you pop bck in feels like ages from u where here 💚

No 2021 baby for us my period has just arrived awww well here’s to 2022 x

Sorry she arrived too @27donfin :( sucks doesnt it!! 2022 is our year 🙏🏻🌈🤞

@danisaui31 thanks lovely ❤ you too, we all deserve it haha

@babyghirl will you be testing in the morning if she doesnt show?

@Annny27 yeah I wasn’t expecting to be this month as we weren’t very active. Just over it especially the last few days Iv found out a few people are pregnant and of course they all feel pregnant first month trying. I’m not wanting to deny anyone else of a baby i just want it to be our turn. I kind of want to give up I miss life pre ttc.

@Annny27
Nope I'm being 💪 😂😂😂😂😂😂 lol 💚

Ohh and to top it off I feel like I’m 14 again my cramp is horrific can’t sleep just had to take pain killers. Never have cramp this bad any more so I’m not impressed

@27DONFIN We had only told my parents and my two siblings and they had kept everything under wraps too, I always knew I wouldn't announce a pregnancy until I was at least 12 weeks. Could not agree with you more, so many people take falling pregnant for granted or act like it isn't a big deal. I feel relieved to have found this group of ladies, it's always good to debrief feelings etc.

@27DONFIN
Sorry ur feeling like that I knw how you feel I miss my old self pre ttc, but please don't give up your rainbow is nt to far away, just try your hardest to take the relax approach and enjoy life through out the month have that glass of wine if you want it 💚

@27DONFIN
Hate when they get that bad nt nice hope they have settled down now thou and u got some sleep 💚
Well the bitch is on her way brown staining when I put tp up abit to check so 8 o'clock tonite it will turn red bitch she is 😂😂😂😂😂😂 @Annny27 @27DONFIN we can be cycle buddies lol 💚
