Thanks everyone. Feeling sad as I know we will probably stop ttc now till the wedding as I know we can't afford to have a wedding and baby this year and neither of us want a long engagement.

Going to push for a date this year and then can start ttc again as early as a couple of months before the wedding date. I just wish someone could tell me that we can conceive and then I wouldn't feel so worried about waiting a few more months X

Can I still hang out with you guys even if I'm not ttc or on my 2ww?!!

I'll be living off your excitement for BFPs, anticipation for testing and tenacity to keep trying!

Xxx

Definitely still hang out!! Wedding planning will hopefully take your mind off it a bit - one of my closest friends is getting married this year and she's going to start trying two months before.
Will still be a very exciting year for you hun with the wedding and hopefully you will fall pregnant without even thinking about it so you can have a nice little secret on your wedding day
Have you got a venue in mind? What style of dress are you thinking of getting? I loved dress shopping before mine!! Lots of excitement for you ahead hun even if it's not bfp related for the time being xxx

 

[naomi88]

Morning girls
I haven't tested as I don't feel at all like im going to get a Bfp, I feel like AF is coming, apart from incredibly sore boobies
Naomi have you managed to hold out? I think you'll get a Bfp ,

J9ine, sorry about the BFN hun, it may be just too early, you know what I'm just the same, my boobies really hurt and this has also happened 2 months ago and I thought I was pregnant, but AF arrived, last month not so bad, how weird!!! some months they kill other months not so much

I have got loads of tests so I may poas later just for fun haha

hope everyone else is ok

xxxxx

Yep held out this morning but will definitely be testing tomorrow if the witch hasn't shown. Feeling slightly nauseas at the moment but don't know what to think really. I was feeling like I was definitely out on Tuesday but feel like I've got a glimmer of hope again now - will be gutted if it's a bfn!

Is it Sunday you're due Gail? I still think you're definitely in with with a shot. Fx for us!!! Xxx

The wedding will definitely take your mind off it. I LOVED planning my wedding, it was so much fun! If you are on a bit of a budget then check out the dresses at https://www.wed2b.co.uk/ I got mine at the Bromley store but they have them all over the country. No dress costs more than £500 and you take it away with you there an then so no waiting for months for it to come in. I can't recommend it highly enough. This is the blog they wrote about my wedding:

another tip for you Ellie. I bought these from poundland http://www.poundland.co.uk/cocktail-fish-bowl and my mother in law filled them with lovely flowers purchased from the flower market (I'll look for a picture to post). I also made my own bouquet and my bridesmaids, my Mum did the button holes. These are a bit harder but once you have the knack it's fairly straight forward. I think I spent about £100 in total for all my flowers - it makes such a difference!!

Love all this wedding talk, much more cheery than cm and bad backs!! I'm out I'm afraid. Hcg only at 20 which is way too low... Checking again on Monday to make sure it's not an ectopic... Just hoping af arrives on the weekend, as the longer it takes the worse it is!! Looking forward to joining some of you in Feb, but keeping all fingers and toes crossed for some massive fat positives still to come!! X X X

Oh no sweetie, I'm gutted for you too, are they sure it couldn't be a viable pregnancy? I'm not too sure about numbers etc
Sending you lots of hugs

xxxxxxx

 

[naomi88]

Oh no becky I am so sorry sweetheart that really is rubbish news and I was so hopeful for you. Fx af will turn up soon so you can get on with next month where I hope you get a super sticky bean. Thinking of you xxxx

 

[Demerera]

Thanks so much, it's soooo early most people wouldn't know anything by now, sometimes I think it must have been easier in the days before hpts, my mum said she would often be a week or 2 late and not think much of it. Think this would just be classed as a chemical pg, tho not sure what the difference is... On a more positive note... When is anyone testing next, we have a few happening tomorrow don't we? Willing some bfps to lift all our moods! Come on little eggs!!! X X X

 

[Crazycatwoman]

First brown spots in the pantyliner, upset tummy and cramps.

I'm officially out

Fx for some stronger lines and bfps from those still testing xxx

Oh no, I'm really sorry to hear about this sweetie.
Lots and lots of hugs.
Here's to us getting our BFP next month

 

[LyndseyB]

Hi ladies, I hope you are keeping sane in here.

Becky, sorry to read that you have had a chemical, I hope you are feeling OK and get your sticky bean very soon! x

I've been trying not to symptom spot.. but really we cant help ourselves can we? I think I've been making them up for a few days but today I'm convinced mine are real. My sense of smell has went through the roof this afternoon and I feel nauseated, these were my first 2 symptoms before my last BFP.

I walked into a meeting room at work and the last meeting must have had lunch in there, I could smell it very strongly and wanted to gag, I don't think I've ever felt like that even when the food was still there (and were talking sandwiches, not hot food), then I went to a colleagues office and could smell peppermint quite strongly and after investigation, it was a cold peppermint teabag in a mug about 3 metres away... I don't need encouragement though so please don't encourage me haha.

Might test tomorrow...and be disappointed as its too early (8DPO today)!! xx

 

[Demerera]

Hi Lyndsey... Sounds v promising for you!! Imagine pg won't show yet but we're all pissy stick mad in here so you're in good company! Best of luck...

 

[J9nine]

FX for you Lyndsey.

I am going to try to hold off testing now until Tuesday as that is the date AF is due.

x

 

[naomi88]

Urgh I'm pretty sure af is on her way. Got really bad af cramps that have started during the last hour. Looks like I won't be testing tomorrow after all grr . Cramps have eased a bit now but have put a pad on because I'm that convinced that the witch is imminent. Feeling quite gutted as have been so peaky and exhausted and uncomfortable the last few days was really hoping it meant something good.

Hope you're doing okay becky. I think the same sometimes - in some ways it's great to have hpts and the various ttc aids like opks etc but in other ways I think it turns us a bit obsessive and makes us so much more aware of everything.

Next cycle I am under no circumstances testing until af is late so need you lot to keep me strong!!

How is everyone else this afternoon? Xxx

 

[Demerera]

Not ruling you out unless af arrives Naomi!! But if you in in Feb, I too need to be strong... I hereby pledge that I will not pee on a silly stick until 15dpo!!! So hoping your cramps are the pg settling in tho... The witch hasn't sung yet so it ain't over!! X

 

[naomi88]

Thanks love. Well, we shall both be each others no-poas cheerleaders next cycle then!! Xxx

 

[naomi88]

KNICKER WATCH: 5:11PM - no sign yet of af. Cramps have eased now but they were so strong earlier I'm like 98% sure I'm out. Just want af to arrive now so I know for definite! Obsessively checking at the moment. Xxx
