@bringmearainbow 🥰🥰

I'm 5dpo. Bloody hate this part of the cycle when you're wishing days away....

calimc83 · 03/12/2023 18:59

@bringmearainbow oh yay! Sooo pleased for you lovely 🥰 @TheBirdintheCave does your little boy go to nursery? I know sometimes the staff there will babysit x

TheBirdintheCave · 03/12/2023 19:05

@calimc83 Nope he goes to a childminder so there's only one of her unfortunately.

LuckyMoonstone · 03/12/2023 19:58

@TheBirdintheCave I can’t believe you’re like 16 weeks already (or possibly more?)! That has flown by. Have you been telling people?

TheBirdintheCave · 04/12/2023 16:13

@LuckyMoonstone Yep! 17 weeks today :) The second trimester has just been dragging so far but I'm sure Christmas will make it speed up as we have SO much going on.

We told more family and close friends at 13 weeks and my colleagues will find out at our Christmas party on Wednesday when I show up with a bump 😂

@bringmearainbow I just went to do your cards and realised that the Christmas tree is now in front of the cupboard where they live 😫

ExMrsGrealish · 05/12/2023 08:21

@curliegirlie hope this cycle is lucky 🤞🏼what a Christmas present xx

@TheBirdintheCave @bringmearainbow glad you girls are doing so well ❤️

TheBirdintheCave · 05/12/2023 08:51

@ExMrsGrealish How're you getting on? :)

@curliegirlie When is testing day for you?

curliegirlie · 05/12/2023 09:35

I'm going to try and be a good girl and wait it out until Friday (10dpo).

And I completely didn't waste a Boots test yesterday because CPs clearly send me slightly barmy 🙄

Hey ladies sorry been MIA I've been feeling rotten 🙈 it's been so hard to act normal in the office I literally feel sick all day and all night thankfully no actual vomiting 😆 under all my baggy clothes is a big bloated belly I keep having to suck in everytime I get up from my desk to walk about the office 😂 feels like a lifetime ago we had the scan

@TheBirdintheCave no worries 😘

@bringmearainbow excellent 🤗

AF arrived as expected bang on the stroke of midnight last Sunday. I'm sick of all this. I'm sick of feeling sad when I see small babies thinking I should have one of those. I'm sick of feeling slightly triggered by the various first birthday posts I've seen on FB over the past few weeks. My lovely colleague had her baby a few days ago. I'm giving her a Frugi gift set that I always thought/hoped I'd use for my little one. I've got one cycle left before I sensibly call it a day, but it makes me so so sad. I think hoping clearing the loft will be cathartic, but I bet it will just leave me in floods of tears. 2022 was shit. 2023 was better in many ways, but just not this one all important way. 23 f-ing cycles 🤯😭

@curliegirlie oh lovely I'm so so sorry sending you so much love ❤️ it's truly truly crap. It will definitely be hard to clear it all out hopefully you won't have to but it's ok to be sad about it all. It's so unfair how TTC works xxx
