7dpo and keeping busy!

[koalabearboombox]

Just posting because I can't think of anything else! It's only cycle 1 TTC#2 and I'm already obsessed 🙄

I'm 7/8dpo and AF is due in the next couple of days. Promised myself I would wait until 12dpo to test (by that point I'd be around 4 days late so hopefully more likely to have a positive result!)

How is everyone else keeping distracted / busy?

@Chocolate4 totally get the feeling angry, tired and fed up, that’s exactly how I’m feeling. I’ve not been taking my multivitamin as it’s got vitamin A in it, not been drinking alcohol or having hot baths or exercising as normal, or painting a bedroom I’ve supposed to have done by now, all for seemingly nothing. Still have symptoms, my cat decided to tread on my boobs with force this evening and the pain was out of this world. Really don’t know why I would hurt so much still, but whatever it is , it’s starting to piss me off.

Keep seeing babies and young children around today as well, although that might be because it’s on my mind a LOT, this happened when I was looking to move houses and all I saw was for sale boards everywhere. After this weekend and my last test I’m going to make plans to make my life better which doesn’t involve being pregnant and start rebuilding my relationship with my DH, who has been really worried about me all week. Please keep us updated, hope you’re ok. I keep hearing the phrase in my head “what’s meant for you won’t pass you by”

@Yellowrayofsunshine I like that saying. Unfortunately for me AF came this morning...12dpo. I feel like an idiot with all my symptoms for past 2 weeks. I was so convinced.
I guess it wasn't meant to be. "Making plans to make life better" as you mentioned, I feel like this 100% something I need to do now. And be just content and feel fulfilled with what I already have.
I'll probably delete my period tracking app so I stop being obsessed, be happy with my life and what will be will be.

I'll still check on here this weekend so please keep us updated!

Please don't feel like an idiot, you're not at all. Pms symptoms are so so similar. Plus when you want something so much your body tricks you. I'm sorry AF came this morning, it's so bloody difficult.

10dpo and BFN for me, pretty certain I'm out. Just going to wait for af which should be Monday. Gutted 😞 I feel like I'm convincing myself there's something wrong after surgical management of my MMC but there probably isn't and will just take some time.

Thank you @jellyfish2 I'm trying to not dwell on it. Got my laptop with me and heading to a coffee shop to work there and treat myself.

Sorry to read about your MMC. It does take some time for our body to reset sometimes. And yes, your mind definitely tricks you making you feel all sorts.
I want to say 10dpo is still a bit early for you and I hope the BFP is around the corner.

Baby dust ! Keep us posted

@Chocolate4 thank you, treat yourself to a nice cake too! 😊

@Chocolate4 big hugs. You most certainly are not an idiot , when the mind really wants something it will manifest , it’s difficult isn’t it 😣 is there something you could do with your partner or a friend this weekend? I’m going out tonight with partner and DS and thinking about going out for the day tomorrow as well, might as well enjoy the freedom 🙂 good luck on your ttc journey.

Good luck @jellyfish2 , there’s still time, please come back and update us 🙏 🙂

Thank you @Yellowrayofsunshine nice idea to go out. My partner is out for the weekend at a friend's stag do. Probably best for him haha! I've planned to spend the day with some friends tomorrow and our kids. So they can play together whilst we chat/vent 😄

Good luck to you 🤞and enjoy tonight's out!
