***September testing group***

I'm not even exaggerating when I say it happens at least once a week.. I guess that's some motivation to lose weight right there. Thing is I used to have an eating disorder and I have got over that, I don't want to start counting calories and restricting my food again
 
AFM, after chemicals in June and July, I am feeling discouraged...like my body is incapable of carrying another baby. :(
I am worried that my body cant and that my husband will not give me more chances.
Can anyone else relate?
 
Good luck @happyface82
@tdog Im so glad the spotting has stopped
@Mum2Be22 (I hope I have the right person) it's so lovely to hear about your journey with the twins, tell us more!! Are they the first children you have fostered? I can't help but be a bit jealous of you with 2 lovely newborns!!

Ladies I'm struggling. I'm getting very very frustrated with people asking me if I'm pregnant ALL the time. Not even people I know, or who know I'm trying... Like at least once a week someone comments on my 'pregnancy' that doesn't exist. I think it's cos I did put on weight over lockdown, and cos I have pcos too and a mum tum anyway it all goes on my belly so I must admit I do look pregnant.
But people ask me when I'm due, even rub my belly, don't believe me when I say 'actually no I'm not pregnant..' and continue to tell me that I must be.. It happens so so frequently now that I've got used to it. And it's not like I'm a huge person I'm about 10st 8, I was 9st 5 ish before lockdown...
But anyway like I say I've learnt to brush it off, but I work in a pub so meet a lot of people every day, or 'regulars' who I see often but don't really know if that makes sense...
Well a lady came up to me today and said 'ooh you're putting some weight on now love aren't you...' I was like 'errr thanks...' and I knew where she was going with it.. Then she says 'you can really tell you're pregnant now you're really glowing' and continues to rattle on about how she can tell by my glowing cheeks etc!!!!! I said 'well no actually I'm not..'
And I thought I was going to burst into tears right at work. If she knew how desperately I want to be pregnant.. I can't deal with people asking me / telling me I am anymore.. Its really killing me inside :cry:

Thank you so much. Things are going okay. The twins are on completely opposite schedules one wakes from nap, than the other goes down; and I feed the one...it's crazy, but we are getting the hang of it :) We have fostered two others, they were more children though (ages 4 and 6). We had decided they weren't the right "fit" for us, than got a call the end of July this year, and met the twins...fell in love...if everything goes well we will officially adopt them in May. We are kind of trying for our own baby, kinda! I take OPK's every once in a while, but still just seeing what happens. We are giving ourselves until December of this year, than calling it quits <3

I am so sorry your struggling, it's difficult. I really hope you get pregnant soon. I just recently found out I have PCOS, so it kinda sucks. <3
 
As of right now, I feel like I'm gearing up to ovulate, but we all know how these crazy symptoms are. I started doing OPK's today, and of course, negative so far! It's a holiday here so DH is off work, so made him bd just in case! I am thinking I'll ovulate sometime this week if not this upcoming weekend. I hate doing OPK's because it makes me stressed, but not taking them too makes me stressed, so I guess it's a catch-22. No class tomorrow, and DH will be going to work. I am so nervous about being by myself, but I think I have a handle on things. I worry about everything...
 
Yay so excited for you <3 RELAX, YOUR PREGNANT! Enjoy it. :) :) Quite honestly, I don't believe in the word "relax", I am always a ball of nerves for some reason. No matter if I'm pregnant or not! <3

Thank you love and so glad everything going well with the twins sounds like you are getting the hang of it 'sort of' lol xx
 
@Mum2Be22 i worry about everything too. My oldest is the same! It’s exhausting. Congratulations on the twins <3

@tdog omg such gorgeous tests!

@josephine3 thats so awful. I don’t get that kind of thing, I’d never talk to anyone I’d assume stuff like that. Hugs
 
@josephine3 this is so unbelievable that people allow themselves to behave like that. I am shocked. And I'm in awe that you manage to brush it off, I think I would be outraged...

@tdog that is just beautiful beautiful beautiful. I wish you happy and healthy 9 months till your rainbow comes.

@NightFlower thinking of you. I am so sorry for your losses.
 
@tdog those lines are looking gorgeous and yay for digital! Congratulations!

@motherogdogs yay, congratulations!!!

@josephine3 thats awful, I’m so sorry :(

sorry to all those who got BFNs, and good luck to all those waiting to O or test!

we are still waiting for AF to arrive to start a fresh cycle :)
 
Wow @tdog yay for the digi!! I'm so happy for you xxx
@Mum2Be22 how old are you if you don't mind me asking? Have you been trying a long time?

I don't know if I need to take some time away from bnb Im just so down right now... We dtd twice yesterday but Im still miles from a pos opk
 
@angelbump sorry AF got you hun xxxx hope it’s not too rough a cycle

@PinkCupcakes oh no I’m sorry I was really hoping for you to fall this cycle x

@Suggerhoney good luck for testing hope the tww goes fast so I can see those tests!!

@josephine3 what the heck that is so unreal. Some people really are stupid.


CD 10 so testing for O. Really hoping to ovulate this year xx
 
I meant to say month but I suppose year is valid haha

@tdog congrats on the writing xxx
 
@tdog nothing quite like seeing it in words, congratulations!

@josephine3 that sounds incredibly difficult, well done on not just tipping a pint of beer over their heads when you get comments! I had a few like that when I was TTC my eldest. I don’t think the clomid cycles helped as I was putting on weight around my tummy whilst not getting pregnant (from the first two rounds anyway) and it hurt so bad when people would think I was pregnant!
I totally sympathise with feelings around thinking it won’t happen. It can be really hard to keep the faith when you see others falling pregnant month after month on here and in our owns lives too and we can feel a bit left behind. Keeping everything crossed that we get there eventually! :hugs:
