Aww @LeopardLover i hope you can get some relief from the nausea! Lots of symptoms are a good sign though, I’m very positive for you! I am not entirely sure, somewhere between 6-8dpo so we will see how things pan out but I’m not hopeful due to a number of stressful things going on.

Bubblesandtroubles · 24/07/2023 18:58

@Vic231 sorry to hear that 😞 wallow a bit today and then back to optimistic you soon enough. I think we are feeling pretty similar.
Still no AF for me last time I checked but have felt dreadful with her impending arrival for days now. I just want to be pregnant!

@justanothermummma I only bought a two pack of tests so hav run out again. Not going to bother going out to buy any tonight. If, by some miracle, AF still not arrived tomorrow I'll consider buying some more on my lunch or way home from work to try on Wednesday. Xx

justanothermummma · 24/07/2023 20:39

@Bubblesandtroubles That makes sense! Thinking of you x

Bubblesandtroubles · 25/07/2023 03:22

Well no need to buy those tests today. AF is here. Better than that tortuous limbo where you know you're out if being honest with yourself but at the same time kidding yourself by clinging on to the teeniest scrap of hope!
I'm looking forward to a large glass of wine tonight and then being able to forget TTC for a week or so at least. Think I might only have one more month in me as im finding it really all consuming. Each month is a month older too. Dust myself down and see how we feel in due course I guess.
Good luck to everyone still in it for this month πŸ’•πŸ€ž xx

SnookyPook · 25/07/2023 08:26

@Bubblesandtroubles sorry to hear that lovely, it's exhausting isn't it 😞 sending hugs and enjoy your vino!

@Vic231 think I replied to you on another thread - sending you hugs too and I hope your doggo is ok.

I peaked yesterday evening... DTD so far the last 3 days and planning again today. Hopefully we've given ourselves a good chance... 🀞🏻

Favofit · 25/07/2023 09:08

@Bubblesandtroubles sorry to hear. Hope you find some space and time to look after yourself and enjoy the lovely wine ❀️

Bubblesandtroubles · 25/07/2023 10:48

Thanks all. I feel okay about it this morning a bit of a relief to be able to stop thinking about it for now!
@SnookyPook that sounds like perfect timing to cover all bases. Keeping everything crossed for you! πŸ€žπŸ’• Xx

Favofit · 25/07/2023 11:51

On my way home from work yesterday I decided to buy a pack of Boots early detection test, silently hopeful. But today it's looking like AF is making an early appearance, that's two days early. I only started cramping yesterday so should have seen it coming but I feel so sad now and don't know what to do with myself.

LeopardLover · 25/07/2023 14:57

@Bubblesandtroubles So sorry to hear AF arrived πŸ˜” Although I'm glad you're feeling better and you can have a little breather before thinking about your FW!

@Favofit So sorry to hear AF may be on its way - not just a little spotting? πŸ˜”

@Vic231 Really pleased you enjoyed Amsterdam but your poor doggo! πŸ˜” Hope you feel better soon and the op goes well.

@Annapolis35 Thank you! I'm wondering if I can last without a private scan. You're entering the exciting part of the TWW 😊 crossing my fingers for you.

@SnookyPook That'll definitely cover it!! πŸ™πŸ»

@justanothermummma Unfortunately the sea bands didn't work but I'd try anything at this point πŸ˜… the hangover feeling is wild!

CAGH03 · 25/07/2023 18:57

Hi everyone, me again. Hope you're all okay?
We've decided not to go back into birth control and keep trying!😁 I was worried about finances but we've both just got really good paying jobs and would easily be able to afford it. He was worried I wouldn't be able to drink at the wedding, but either way I'd enjoy myself! So, we're back to Ttc. This would've been month 12 and I have a gut feeling it will happen before the wedding!
What's everyone been up to? We've just spent a weekend camping and off to Cornwall next week for the week! 🀍x

justanothermummma · 25/07/2023 21:26

@Bubblesandtroubles lots of love x

@SnookyPook good luck! Eeeek!

@Favofit I'm so sorry lovely!

@LeopardLover agh! Gutted they didn't work for you!

@CAGH03 How exciting! Congrats on the job and being able to keep TTC!

Favofit · 26/07/2023 08:14

Thank you @LeopardLover I never spot so I knew it was AF. I'm just surprised she's come early yet again. I had a glass of red wine last night but didn't feel any better for it

Thank you @justanothermummma I feel so sad and anxious and want to start trying again but so tired of it all.

DuchessofSuffolk · 26/07/2023 12:32

AF due on Friday - no symptoms, but then no symptoms of a baby.

hmmm

justanothermummma · 26/07/2023 16:26

@Favofit I have no good advice, but maybe press your reset button and take some time for you, get a massage/hair done/read a book/start a crafty project/go for walks?

Lots of love being sent your way x

Annapolis35 · 26/07/2023 16:43

@Favofit i am in totally same space as you, I’m so tired of it all. I have just started spotting so my AF is arriving early (joy). I would really like for some good news to come

DuchessofSuffolk · 26/07/2023 18:04

Right so I don’t want to be a drama queen but I think I have implantation bleeding? I don’t know if it’s just me wanting it badly and my period is early and so my brain has decided that is what it is or if it’s actually that…

Forget that… it was actually my period. πŸ˜”

justanothermummma · 27/07/2023 08:04

@DuchessofSuffolk Awww no!!

LeopardLover · 27/07/2023 08:38

@Favofit @DuchessofSuffolk @Annapolis35 So sorry all πŸ˜” take it easy and treat yourself to all the 🍷 xx

SnookyPook · 27/07/2023 10:09

Aw gutting ladies. Sorry to hear. Hope you're all ok. X

Favofit · 27/07/2023 10:24

@justanothermummma thank you, I just feel so low and deflated. I really like your suggestions and a massage does sound amazing ❀️

@Annapolis35 I'm sorry to hear AF has come as well. At this point the thought of trying again makes me queasy. But I would really like good news too. I'm going to try the suggested massage, maybe you should as well ❀️

@LeopardLover thank you, I think I might indulge in wine a couple more times this week. Also I'm most likely going to to start drinking coffee again ❀️

Favofit · 27/07/2023 10:25

@DuchessofSuffolk so sorry to hear , it's really difficult. A glass a of wine and maybe a massage (I'm going to book asap) ❀️

justanothermummma · 27/07/2023 21:11

@Favofit you 100% deserve one!

I'm pretty sure I'm not in the running this month, we've both been too exhausted to DTD and I'm not in the headspace to do it for the sake of getting pregnant, I want to do it when it feels right, natural (sexy even!). I don't want it to become a chore - is that bad?!

Anyway! Hope you're all okay lovelies. We'll get there eventually! X

CAGH03 · 28/07/2023 05:48

Good morning girls :) so sorry that someone you got af πŸ˜•
I'm due on Wednesday when I'm on holiday😩
I did an opk last night and it almost looked positive? Although I'm 10dpo. I'm so confused!
I
Hope everyone's okay 🫢🏼🀍

Annapolis35 · 28/07/2023 07:42

@justanothermummma that is really healthy and sensible, and I admire you! We’ve had a lot of very unsexy sex because we have to and it does take the fun out of it a bit (we try to keep it fun though). So yes continue with that as much as possible. I am gonna shift to that mentality I think and only track periods from here on.

My AF is in full flow now but it’s ok. I got called for a job interview next week, which is a really good opportunity with a much better benefits package so I am gonna trust the timing. Gonna do lots of prep and focus on this now.

@CAGH03 I dunno about opks but I’ve heard they get darker if you’re pregnant. I’ve never tried it myself as I thought it might be bad for my brain so I basically stop using opks as soon as I get a peak. Maybe try a preg test?
