@HRP1990 woohoo so happy for you! Congratulations:-) xxx

Omg I get promoted to 🦥🥲!!
Thanks girls, really appreciate the support! I’m 100% giving it all back to you when it’s your turn ❤️
@Aries491 @PurpleCat88 @Sparklingwine1

Awww that’s a lovely story @HRP1990, how exciting for you both! 🥰

How are you today @Mrsspoon3?

DH and I are going to go away for the night, sounds daft as I know it’s only our first time round but a tiny bit of me had hoped I’d be able to give him some good news this weekend!

@OnTheRoadNow Thank you ❤️
Don’t give up hope just yet, I tested BFN yesterday at 10DPO and BFP today at 11DPO! It could just be to early x

There’s definitely still time @OnTheRoadNow! I know some people don’t test positive even until right until day of their period. It’s so hard waiting though isn’t it!
I’m ok thanks! Anxious still but ok Still testing positive and a little darker than yesterday (I know I know I should stop testing, but it helps to ward off the anxiety for a little bit haha) but just really want to get past the day my period is due (which is Monday) which I have never got past before with my chemicals! If I make it past there I will relax a little! DH won’t accept I’m pregnant either!! He’s totally prepared for it not sticking. It’s so hard as just want us both to be excited!

Ah thanks for your messages, however I just went to the loo and (TMI alert) there was a bit of spotting when I wiped. I always spot for days before my period - last month I spotted for 7 days beforehand! I am due next Wednesday so I think it must be that!

However I guess that does mean I can enjoy some drinks this evening!

Ah sorry to hear that @OnTheRoadNow! Hope you’re able to have a lovely night away to chill out after all the waiting and enjoy your drinks, and fingers crossed next month will be the one!!

Forgot to say @Mrsspoon3 I have everrrrything crossed for you for Monday!

@OnTheRoadNow Thanks so much! 😊

Congratulations @HRP1990 - that's so cute with your OH and the 🐶!!

Ahhhhh @HRP1990 what dog do you have?? We keep joking that our dog isn't ready to not be an only child 😅

Awww congratulations @HRP1990!!! Great news!!

I have my fingers crossed for you @Mrsspoon3 it sounds positive!!

CD10 and I think we've missed my O day... so gutted. OPKs are just not going in my favour and DP had his vaccine Wednesday so has been out of action. Just feel totally fed up, 8 cycles and 1 CP - which has screwed my cycle. I'm so exhausted 😩
Wine is in the fridge and I'm going to head to the gym to punch something 😅

I swear if I'm ever lucky enough to have a daughter, I'm telling her the truth. TTC is not as easy as they make out at school!

Thank you @Eli707 @SareBear87 😘

@KayL1988 😂 same, my dog is SO needy he’s not ready to share us haha. We have a frenchie, what do you have? Was it a Doberman?

Sare, it’s so true! I’ll be doing the same for sure. Let some frustration out and enjoy the wine!!

Thanks @SareBear87 😊 So sorry to hear you think you’ve missed it! I hope you haven’t! Hope you enjoy your wine too, you deserve it!

Haha we say the same @KayL1988 and @HRP1990! We have a husky and he’s sooooo needy!! He has to sit in between us on the sofa at all times and won’t leave our sides for a second haha.

@hrp1990 congratulations! 🎉

CD1 here. What shall I try differently this month??! I'm tracking opks (and have a rough idea of my cycle now), taking folic acid and vitamin d, and I've got a couple of tubes of conceive plus. Does anyone have any other suggestions?! My DH is a little underweight, I've heard that can affect sperm count? I've been force-feeding him walnuts for months but I'm not sure if any other dietary changes will make a difference at this point.

@taytay2020 We’re definitely not out of the woods with my BFP, though it’s looking more promising than any of our previous 5 cycles, but so can tell you the things we tried differently this month. Not sure what worked of course and what was just coincidence!!

There were 3 main things we tired differently I think. I started taking Ubiquinol as I kept reading how good it was for your eggs. It did make me ovulate really late though, and I’d only been taking it for 1 month and I’ve read it takes 3 to be effective so I’m not sure if that was just a coincidence! Also I’m not sure how old you are so if you’re in your 20s your eggs are probably already much better than mine haha so you might not need it.

My dh (reluctantly!) also started taking the Wellman Conception supplement.

Also I tried to work on my stress levels and started attending yoga, a relaxation class and got a massage at the start of my fertile week.

As I say no idea if any of that helped but thought I would share!

Congratulations my lovely @HRP1990 I’m so happy for you 🥰

@Mrsspoon3 that’s hilarious 😂 I assume he follows you to the toilet.. lays on the floor when you’re in the bath.. is sat by your feet when you cook!?

@taytay2020 thank you!

@Peachycream thank you Peachy 🥰 how are you today? Xx

@HRP1990 I’m not sure to be honest 😂 what about you, has it sunk in?

I have a spaniel @HRP1990 and @Mrsspoon3 ... a very needy one... Definitely giving off only child vibes!!

Urgh sorry @SareBear87 hope you got some frustration out and have a glass of wine in your hand now!

@taytay2020 you seem to be doing everything! I also asked my other half to take supplements but to be honest I don't know how much difference they made since he kept forgetting to take them.

@HRP1990 you must have met my dog. He loves lying beside my bathtub. 😂😂

How you feeling?? Xxx

Only child vibes 😂😂😂 that’s funny

@KayL1988 @Peachycream thanks for asking! It hasn’t really sunk in yet. We’re celebrating with an Indian haha. I think I’m so aware of what could happen pre 12 weeks I’m trying not to get too excited.. I’m sure that’s normal!

What’ll be so weird is my period not showing up tomorrow!

@HRP1990 I honestly think everyone is anxious. So much anxiety about getting pregnant, then so much anxiety about staying pregnant ... think you just have to enjoy it as much as possible and think positive!! An Indian is such a lovely way to celebrate.... now you've mentioned that all I can think about is poppadoms
