@daniki @RRAEE @whatdoyouthink123456 @carolinep3

Went to reply on the other thread but it’s full!!!

@Marie1990x 🤣🤣 you prob missed, time to act like you got it! 🤣

@Daniki my peak usually lasts minimum 24 hours so will do one in the morning and see 😂. Will make sure I don't fall asleep on the sofa tonight and actually dtd 😅

@Daniki FINALLY 😅 now to decide if ovulation is today or tomorrow.
We managed to dtd last night. Husband is out tonight annoyingly, hopefully he isn't too tipsy and able to perform 😂 I'll be raging if not

@Marie1990x oh happy days! Tie him down this morning or before he goes out 🤣

@Daniki I might have to 😂. Although our daughter will probably come bounding in 😅. Just happy to see a peak tbh, I was thinking it would never come!

@Marie1990x haha probably! That used to always happen us 🤣 least you done it last night anyway 🙌🏻

@Daniki and @Marie1990x tested this morns BFN

@RRAEE ah sorry 😢

@Daniki was expecting it, im getting the odd cramp now so assume af will start today or tomorrow but ive managed to lose another 8lbs so im happy about that 🥳

@RRAEE ohhh I'm sorry it was bfn 😣.
That's amazing about the 8lb loss through! Well done you!!!

@Daniki I'll try stick peppa pig on for her this afternoon 😂.

Currently googling ways to enhance implantation in the tww. Officially lost the plot 😅

@Marie1990x any good tips 😂

@RRAEE 🤣🤣 nothing new really. The usual things come up like berries, pineapple, lean meats, oily fish, spinach, eggs, beetroot etc. So I'm making our shopping list to reflect all of these this week 😂

@RRAEE well done! 👏🏻 could really do with losing some myself 🙈 haha @Marie1990x sure we all do that, I used to eat loads of Brazil nuts spinach granola avocados and all around that time 🤣

@Daniki we're a marketers dream aren't we! 😂

It's all stuff I eat anyway so not sure why I'm even focusing on it, guess it's just something to obsess over in the tww 😂.

Give over, now's the time you don't have to worry much about weight while you're growing a human!

@Marie1990x absolutely 🤣 crazy what you will pay for anything if you thought it help too! Aw I know, but if this pregnancy works out il have to do a serious overhaul after. Crazy how you can let yourself go so much after having a child and iv no excuse anymore my son is 4 in a few weeks lol

@Daniki literally 😂 I dread to think how much I've spent this last couple of years on fertility/trc stuff!

Oh I'm absolutely the same. Can you still use the term "I've just had a baby" as an excuse over 3 years later 😅.

@Marie1990x absolutely I find myself using it all the time 🤣🤣 aw same between supplements and sperm friendly lubes , out a fortune 🤣

@Daniki hahaha it's scandalous isn't it!

Do anyones ovulation symptoms differ month to month?
I had a couple sharp twinges/pops yesterday in bed, definitely noticeable and a bit of a stitch since, all in the same place (lower left abdomen) so pretty sure it's ovulation. But I've not had sore boobs which I did the last couple of months so second guessing it! I didn't have sore boobs at all with my last pregnancy, but because I've had it from ovulation the last few times it's got my mind wondering

@Marie1990x I always found I had different Symptoms or none at all! When I done the trigger shot cycle that time I defo felt it it was a really sharp twinge in my side and I knew I was defo ovulating so it was interesting! Iv just had a small bit of spotting so trying not to spiral 🥺

@Daniki this is what I thought I felt. I always get mild cramping but this time I deffos felt like a twinge/pop that lasted a minute if so then that was that. My OPK's are lowering now too so happy I've caught it and done what we can. Will tonight too of course. Last night was the most un-romantic dtd ever. Our daughter kept coming into our room 😂.

Oh no! Is it a lot or just a tiny bit? Did you mention your spotting at your last appointment? Try not to over think but obviously know it's easier said than done

@Marie1990x sounds like ovulation and defo DTD tonight to cover all bases. Aw I did but they just said normal and not to panic 🙈

@Daniki easy for people not going through it to say not to panic isn't it 😂. When will your next scan be?

Tender boobs are now steadily creeping in after my panic this morning 😅

@Marie1990x all good signs 🙌🏻🙌🏻 oh please be the one 🤞🏻

I know that's it, and I know it's common but when you've had so many losses it's hard not to panic 🙈 iv another scan on Friday with the miscarriage clinic so be a long week 🤣🙈

@Daniki ah that's great they're scanning you though and hopefully it's a quick week 🤞🏻. It's torturous not knowing what's going on our in own bodies isn't it! Completely understand the anxiety after your losses.
Has there been anymore spotting since?

Yeah I'm pretty sure I've ovulated, so just see if anything comes of it.
I was planning on giving up alcohol and being super good this tww, but this sunshine has made me pour a wine 😂. Wine has antioxidants in it though, right? 🤣🤣.
But after today I'm going to be reallllllly good and clean living.

Told husband I just need him tonight and tomorrow, then he can have a break from routine dtd until May 😅

@Marie1990x 🤣🤣 have that wine surely! It's a fab day would love one myself actually 🤣 so I had a tiny speck of brown when I wiped there and had a small bit of red this morning and that's it so far. Could be nothing but I just keep thinking back to the beginning with the low beta etc. will just have to see! I'm cooking away here trying to occupy my mind to not think about it 🙈
