Trying for a 2016 baby

@Anzel - EEK! That sounds similar to Empangeni where I used to live. Here in Underberg there isnt much need for a pooll because even though our summer days get quite hot, the pools are always still ice cold! We have said if I am preggers during summer then we will put up a little plastic pool that you just get at Game to help cool me down Atleast we then have it for the kiddies too. During the winter months we can then take it down and pack it away

@Chanti - In our peak summer months, January and February, temperatures rise to 45 degrees +. It is so hot the tar roads start to melt - When trucks make u-turns on the main roads, they normally take the tar with them and leave deep ridges in the roads. Add that heat to humidity, and you feel like dying. Luckily, we have dry heat, which is more bearable than humid heat. When it rains or is about to rain, then nothing cools you down, except a pool. Hubby and I wanted to build a pool at our house in the next month or two, but it's tooo expensive and we don't want to take out a loan to cover the costs. We wanted to use the money I get from the textbooks to put in a pool. In order to have the cash for it, we'll have to wait a bit till we have the cash together. So hopefully we'll be able to put it in my early next year!

@Anzel - Thats insane! Its been hot here but prob max like 32... I do not miss living in places that go close to 40!

@Chanti - I am aware that it could be a possible tell-tale sign, however, with the changes in season and my allergies, it could also just be a snot nose... Hehhehe! Its 39 degrees in Upington today. My cold could thus also be as a result of our water cooler that is trying sooo hard to cool down the house. We literally have all the blinds shut to keep the house as cool as possible! And we are praying for rain...

I was laughing histerically when News24 reported that Gauteng is experiencing a heatwave in Spring with maximum temps of 34/35... Our heatwave has started in August already with those temperatures!

@Anzel and @Liza - You do both realize that a 'cold' is a popular BFP symptom in the TWW?? I dont mean to put anyones hopes up but the positive is still a possibility!

Good morning, girls

@Nikita - I am in awe of your courage. It was a big blow you were dealt with and still you remain positive. I salute you this morning. I don't know if I'd be able to do that! I'd probably feel like dying about now, if I was in your shoes. You are inspiration to me. Thanks for your courage!!

@Liza- Strongs with the TWW! It's the worst!!

@Chanti - How are you, girl?

@TanyaS - You are very very quite! Everything alright??

@Lush - How are you keeping up??

Any other lady that I might have missed? How are you? Join the conversation. We will carry each other through this journey of TTC!

AFM, I am on CD 26 today, and I think I'm out this month... AGAIN! I had some lower abdominal cramping at both sides, as well as lower backache. Still have boob tenderness and moodiness. And then the feeling of "wetness" the whole time! Apart from that I think I have a cold... Running nose combined with congestion, post nasal drip, headache and earache. So it's definitely a cold. Busy today with the textbook I'm writing, so will be available to chat!

@ Nikita glad that you are feeling better. ONce AF arrived you can get back on the wagon!

I'm CD22 today 8DPO. I'm just keeping busy to get threw the TTW. AF should be arriving by next week Tues/ Wed
