Hi ladies. I have started to feel a little overwhelmed with our usual thread and we are at different stages of our journeys now. Please feel free to leave this one if you don't feel the same but I feel so invested in your journeys and don't want to miss any news. Hoping this is ok, I don't think you can do DM as a group?
Hope you are all doing well and if there's anyone I've missed from the usual bunch feel free to add 😘😘😘

@MrsCristianoX 😯 there is no denying that!

@lovenaps I'm so sorry lovely, that sounds really rough, especially when you are not feeling great yourself. Not excusing his behaviour at all, but could the stress of everything be getting to him as well? This is such a difficult time.

mummatara · 18/11/2022 07:26

@TheBirdintheCave oh that's such brilliant news 🤩 sorry your feeling shocking though that is def not fun at all

@lovenaps oh lovely that really is awful for you. I will say when I was pregnant with DS hubby didn't understand at all how I was feeling I had to really explain to him that growing a baby is tiring and makes you feel shocking he just thought that you grew a baby and might be sick occasionally but you carried on as normal 🤦🏼‍♀️ men they just don't have the level of understanding because they don't go through it. They don't even go through periods and fluctuating hormones on a monthly basis so they just have no context. Could you sit him down and try and explain properly so that he understands not just say your tired and if you have then I'm sorry but he is being an absolute unreasonable ass ❤️ big hugs

MrsCristianoX · 18/11/2022 07:31

@TheBirdintheCave that makes it so real!! Congratulations lovely ❤️ how are you feeling?

FfayeN · 18/11/2022 07:35

@TheBirdintheCave yes! Congratulations lovely. Despite all you've been through this month with bloomin covid etc, you must be over the moon. Sorry you're not feeling great 😌 but hopefully this mornings BFP will get you through the day a bit easier!

@lovenaps I'm so sorry your DH is being terribly unreasonable. It really sounds like he's putting you through emotional turmoil by leaving the house like that. Have you close friends that you can turn too? He shouldn't be 'angry' at you, please be careful and look after yourself and your little bump. Xx

@FfayeN I'm running so late. I brought one to work to take. Children in need day..and DD tells me know 🙄

MrsCristianoX · 18/11/2022 07:43

@FfayeN I would never keep it from you😂😚

bunnykins123 · 18/11/2022 07:46

@TheBirdintheCave yayyyy! Got all my fingers crossed for you 💕💕

@MrsCristianoX annnnd?? I'm eagerly awaiting your update too 🤞

@lovenaps oh hun, that sounds hard. Like the others say, it could be the stress of it all. Have you tried speaking to him since it happened to explain how it made you feel?

FfayeN · 18/11/2022 07:49

@MrsCristianoX oh no!! They love to drop the ball on us like that hey 😂. Xxx

@FfayeN my update so far is overwhelming nausea 🤢 send help

TheBirdintheCave · 18/11/2022 08:24

Thanks everyone! I've just seen how awful those photos look as my bathroom light is so harsh and my hands were shaking 😂

I am just flabbergasted to be honest. I thought we had zero chance after Covid. I guess those studies really aren't damning after all 😅Seems the only way I can get pregnant is to threaten my body with IVF 🙄...And use the miracle that is the Ferti-lily.

Early days of course, not even out of chemical territory yet but I feel much more positive about this one than I did at the start of the MMC.

I wonder if we can get our money back for those tests that we rebooked for December :/

TheBirdintheCave · 18/11/2022 08:28

@MrsCristianoX Excited to see your test!

@lovenaps I'm sorry your husband is being an ass :( <3

Indianna2006 · 18/11/2022 09:20

@TheBirdintheCave yeeessss yes damn covid and the stupid googling. Anything is possible I always say that. Love the fertilily. I rly do think it helps just get that sperm in the right environment to get up there. Congrats hun.

@MrsCristianoX I deffo see it!!

@lovenaps ahh that’s a bit unfair. Maybe he’s overwhelmed like the others say. But fuck me your pregnant and it doesn’t necessarily get easy either. They have to help ALOT when baby is born as well. My DH did anyway. Not everyone gets a perfect labour and running around 4 days later. That was not me 😩

I had my consultant appointment other day and asked about mode of delivery. I’ve been wavering. Considering both options. But he said medically his recommendation is an elective section and looked a bit gone out at me when I mentioned vaginal delivery because I had lots of complications last time. So good for thought.

FfayeN · 18/11/2022 09:24

@TheBirdintheCave I got a refund from my fertility place when I fell pregnant. They were lovely about it actually so I'm sure you'll be fine getting your money back 😊 xx

@TheBirdintheCave oh wow congratulations! After everything against you as well! Amazing news x

calimc83 · 18/11/2022 09:53

@TheBirdintheCave 🎉🎉🎉 amazing news! Has it sunk in yet? @MrsCristianoX I was nauseous really early on just like you..eek! Will u test again today or leave it another day or so? @lovenaps hope u are ok. Men are clueless, my DH is mocking about with a 'cold' like a wet weekend! He reckons pregnancy is so easy as 'millions of women do it every day'....yeah all right 🙄 xx

TheBirdintheCave · 18/11/2022 10:08

@calimc83 Not yet, it's all still really surreal. I still can't believe it's actually real. Hard to imagine a summer baby too as my son was born in the autumn.

calimc83 · 18/11/2022 10:18

@TheBirdintheCave I bet! When would u be due? X

TheBirdintheCave · 18/11/2022 10:26

@calimc83 31st of July :)

@FfayeN That's good to hear! I think we'll wait til six weeks before we call them up and cancel, just in case.

@theblueflowers Thank you :)

calimc83 · 18/11/2022 10:57

@TheBirdintheCave 🥰 x

FfayeN · 18/11/2022 11:17

I still haven't worked out my due date 🙈. I can't bring myself to get set up for it quite yet xx

OP posts:
TheBirdintheCave · 18/11/2022 11:18

@FfayeN It was the first thing I did 😂 I'm a planner.

MrsCristianoX · 18/11/2022 12:52

Well I just peed on a clear blue there and not much of a line🙄 I'll upload it in a bit. I dunno I'm still a bit apprehensive but I feel like shit

FfayeN · 18/11/2022 13:06

@MrsCristianoX it doesn't need to be much of a line! Any line will do! Are you 10dpo now? Xx

MrsCristianoX · 18/11/2022 13:31
