ttc #1 - handy tips please :0)

[GoldenRatio]

i have one digital frer saved, i plan to use cheap ones until i see two line then use the digital. I refuse to see not pregnant sign on that stick heheheh thats why it has to wait


My friend just learned that she is 3 month preggo, thats nice ha? u dont have to stress about mc, its already 3 months. She had her periods so she didnt suspect.

 

[claireybell]

Have never seen digi frers in uk, i bet i could order some online though i used a digi once after Riley, 2-3 wks it said, slightly excited was an understatement lol i all squeaky haha!

Oh wow - congrats to your Friend, was she ttc or just a lovely suprise? That does happen with sone with periods, a girl in my office was 'a larger' girl i would say so no visible bump or anything but had regular periods, one month got a positive, had an early scan as she had a previous issue & found she was nearly 4 months along! Aww hopefully you & your friend will be preggers same time time Golden X

Ahh minute i get bfp, im gonna stop sucking my stomach in


My cm dried up a bit, i wonder if that was bkz of the cranberry juice


Are u done BDing? mine is just starting lol, gonna be a loooooong weekend


It seems like u ovulated CD15, didnt u use opk at night the day before?

Hey claireybell

All good here - about 8 weeks or so!
Some days feels like nothing is happening in my belly.
Am super emotional about everything too haha

How are you doing?
You in your TWW now?

Fingers crossed!!!! Xxx

 

[claireybell]

Hey Poppet!

Its surreal isnt it, as soon as you have the scan you will feel pg its in there now moving around gradually but cant feel anything, its weird! Have you had the freak out moment yet of 'omg i have to push it out?' Lol! I had that on way home from work sat in Traffic.. Ohhh the tears lol!

Yeah, i ov'd on Weds, so officially tww again yay! Fingers crossed this cycle!

Golden i did opk on cd14 later afternoon & still neg but just a shade off being positive, then Weds def was positive! We bd every other day-ish up until day before ov, all done now just sit & wait uhh hate waiting, i have minimal patience ha ha!

 

[GoldenRatio]

I had really sharp cramps last night, i wonder why that was. Im so sick of waiting too, cant i be pregnant already

 

[claireybell]

Pre ov cramps..

I know how you feel, each month feels like a reeeeeeally long journey, fed up of seeing bfn's this will be our month yes yes !! X

 

[GoldenRatio]

I hope so! i see lot of ppl getting positives this month!

 

[claireybell]

Me too hehee

Oh you said you been drinking cranberry juice? What does this help with hun?

 

[GoldenRatio]

I always drink it because i get uti often, but then i started reading about it. It makes cm acidic which makes it dry up i think.

Thats why i started apple cider to balance my ph for good.

 

[claireybell]

Oh i see, i bet thats also good for ttc boys

 

[GoldenRatio]

u mean cranberry? acidic is not good for boys, right?

 

[claireybell]

Ohh i got it mixed up lol its acid ph for girls & alkaline ph for boys, all very confusing ha ha

 

[GoldenRatio]

okey so it says i need to have orgasm before him for a boy, but then an other article says , have orgasm after him so that cervical dip pulls the sperms in. Not sure which one to do heheh maybe its too early for me to worry about the gender right now, i should just focus on getting a healthy baby, gender doesnt matter right?

 

[Poppet2016]

I know feels really surreal. Not actually sure it's sunk it yet!

Haha not thought about 'omg I'm going to have to push this baby out' thought yet... I'm sure that will come soon! Hahaha

I'm excited nervous scared all rolled into one. Sometimes it feels like I'm not pregnant and when I say to myself I am it feels weird. Haha but am super duper happy. Feel blessed.

Hope this TWW goes quick with a happy result for you :0)

Have a fabulous weekend! Any plans?

 

[GoldenRatio]

ahhh poppet u are already 8 week! in a month we will be doing gender guessing from ur scan. I would be on clouds!

Did you get cravings yet?

 

[claireybell]

Ahhhh yes Poppet, we will all be having guesses on your scan piccy hehee! Anytime from 3wks+ now arghhhh exciting!! Nah, not alot this wknd, maybe going out for a Sunday Roast carvery tomorow so no cooking for me hehe! Hows about you girlies?

Oh yes, Orgasms are meant to be very bad for girl swimmers ive heard as it turns the ph in favour of the boys! As if they need help as there faster lol! Im purposely not having them ha ha! Let the girls get by, when ttc Riley i just kept having sex until i got my temp shift, did it on ov day aswell so bound to be a boy, its weid, i had a feeling i was pg that cycle just after i ovulated, felt like we had done something diff.. Kinda getting that now but we'll see

 

[GoldenRatio]

Ohhh why did my temp go so high... It better drop tomorrow

How was ur weekend ladies? Mine was bit different, for some reason I hav been so bloated, my jeans are feeling tighter, can't suck my stomach in anymore, part of me wonders if I'm secretly pregnant....:/

 

[claireybell]

Wow thats quite a temp rise! Tbh, up until ovulation my temp us always up & down, last cycle was crazy!

Wknds been ok, we went out for lunch today & i had chilli, so stuffed right now my jeans are undone aswell Lol! Then SO purchased me some calf lengh black boots, love them Did you ovulate cd10 Golden? I can remember, so your 1dpo less me! Ooh testing around same time, im having like TONS of cm, i feel wet all the time & keep getting bubbles down there lol probs were so much cm haha! Hope pg is on cards for us both

 

[GoldenRatio]

To be honest I may logged the temp wrong, my eyes were barely open and I may hav logged in 36.7 instead of 35.7, didn't get positive opk yet so I didn't ovulate yet.
