Morning Ladies!

@ NicolaF hope you guys have a fabulous weekend! We were suppose to travel to Bloem, but my son's wants his birthday party on Saturday.He turned 12 on the 28th. Are you testing this weekend?

@Babydreaming Hope your feeling better. I also tried to stay off the pain meds when i had an op last year.

@ Mesh i'm also off the starch. This is my 3rd week going strong. It definitely gets difficult sometimes. I hate the gym! So i try to jog with the dog everyday. Luckily my son is big and loves being active so he goes with me.

@Ayesha how are you doing?

@MamaK how are you? When are you testing?

CD23 (9DPO) I've had some twitches on and off but that's about it. I'm really trying to not symptom spot. Luckily we've been so busy that i forget about the if's. I dreamed last night that i got i BFP. It would be great, this TTC is getting to me sometimes. A roller coaster of 4 years. My sis had her 2nd baby in Dec. Then both of my sister in laws are PG. Due in May and July. A great year but also a sad one for me that lies ahead.

Hello ladies! :)

How's everyone doing? So quiet on here.....

@Nicola - I hear you hun, as soon as you look for every symptom your mind starts playing tricks. But its very hard not to symptom spot. Sounds like you are off to a great weekend, hope you guys have a blast! What is your average cycle length?

@Ayesha - anything on your side?

@ mamak - what CD are you on?

@mesh - what's happening your side?

@Liza - how you doing?

So CD18 for me and I've noticed alot of EWCM!!! I started taking Vitex again, so it seems to be working its magic again. I still think I will sit this cycle out. Just came off all my meds even though I'm still in a bit of pain, so just trying to manage it without taking pain meds.

Hopefully we get to see some BFP's soon!!

Hope everyone else is well! Xx

Morning ladies

How is everyone doing? Hope you all had a good weekend!!

@mesh I hear you..i love my carbs but i've just been trying to cut down as much as possible and only eat them in the day! And swopping bread for rice cakes for lunch! I've lost about 2kg in the last few weeks so happy! i've been naughty with the gym though haven't been much!! good luck for this cycle xx
@babydreaming i'm so glad your op went well. I think its a good idea to take a month break, it does wonders! let your body heal and then get back on it next month :) xx
@mamaK what cycle day are you now? fingers crossed xx
@Liza hope you've been resting well haha! what CD you on now? xx

AFM...CD23 and 7DPO. Not feeling anything really, been really gassy (lol!) though. Otherwise not seeing/feeling any other symptoms. Trying to not focus on it too much but because i've got such a good feeling its hard not to think about it all the time. But we shall see. We are off camping this weekend for my hubby's birthday so its a fun way to keep my brain occupied. My app says recommended test day would be Friday 9th Feb which is friggin AGES away!!!! that would be CD34. So i guess because I was so late last month it is guessing my AF or BFP day but anyway we shall see. PRAYING!!!!

Hope you're all well xxxx

Nicola and Liza - fingers crossed for you ladies.
MamaK - those symptoms look very positive!
Ayesha - so glad you are feeling much better. sucks when you just need to rest and there you have to do a clean up
Babydreaming - happy to hear your op went well. good idea to skip this cycle and rather ensure you heal properly

AFM - on CD16 - except for some random sharp shooting pains in my left boob, no other symptoms. trying to hit the gym everyday and eat healthy. Dr suggested I follow a low carb diet but boy it is soooo hard not to eat rice and bread :-)

Hello lovely ladies!

Hope everyone is well.

@Ayesha - glad to hear you are healing. I saw AF arrived..... What CD are you on now?

@NicolaF - Fingers crossed you catch that eggy! Yeah I agree the TWW is terrible! And I am so happy that you feeling positive about this cycle, keep the faith hun!

@MamaK - Fingers crossed for you hun! We're also trying for #2. Our boy is 2 years old now. How old is your LO?

@LizaG - Looks like CD14 was the peak... Fingers crossed for you hun.

AFM - Well surgery went well, I'm still a quite a bit of medication. CD13 for me, dont think anything is gonna happen this cycle due to the OP and meds. Think we will sit this cycle out.

Have a good day!!

Hello Ladies,

@ayesha good to hear that you are healing.

@Liza fingers crossed for you.

@Nicola That PT will definitely not go to waste this time around :)

AFM I didn't have any cramping today. We had home made burgers for dinner last night with some bacon in it and I couldn't stomach the bacon to a point where I took it out and threw it away. DH and my nanny said they didn't taste anything wrong with the bacon so, I don't know if that could be another symptom. My smelling sense is also on steroids.
