Long post sorry! Well DH and I had such a lovely day yesterday! My in laws watched our son for us, so DH and I could have a date. We went out shopping and I got some very much needed clothes (my wardrobe has been terrible since I lost weight and nothing fits!) and we had coffee, then sushi for lunch with maltesers for a treat, and we picked up a bottle of nice wine on our way back. Then after we got DS to bed we spent aaaaaaages out on our patio sipping wine by the fire light and talking. I got a bit tipsy to be honest, first time in ages that I've had more than one glass! I reckon it was O night last night (if my temps stay high that will confirm it) and we did BD, plus two days before, so our timing is great. This has been our most relaxed and enjoyable cycle yet. I swear it's the patio, we just love hanging out there! (We turned our carport into a living space!) I also finished refurbishing my dining table (seen in the pics) and we are just waiting for it to cure before we bring it inside and put our little outdoor set out there, and having that project done is just so satisfying. For now, life is good. God is good. Here's to trying to stay as chill and positive through the TWW! I have another 7 pack of frer boys and plan to start testing at 10 dpo so I can watch for a progression.

@ E_Massey. That is a lovely hangout place to just chill and relax and not worry about things. Go catch that egg girl.

Hberry it will be so amazing if you end up pregnant with twins!! Can’t wait to see what happens!

Mill well! Nothing to lose bu trying the every method! Not sure if we can do it tho lol Tomorrow we’re getting back to work after 2,5 moths without even knowing if we can keep our studio and the anxiety is already here! We’ll definitely be trying tho!!

E That looks like the ideal place to set the mood! Good luck this cycle hun!

AFM fertile days and I have very very very strong ovulation pains already and I’m approximately 2-3 days before O. I’m not sure if the Metformin will make me ovulate earlier or if it makes me feel everything more..

Morning ladies!
Alex- hopefully you catch that egg girl!
Afm It's cd21 and 9dpo. I tested thus morning and bfn. Im out of tests and not sure when I will go get any. Ctp has my next period starting in 2 days and my app says 5 days.

Officially now into the 2ww! I think we did well this time around. We are determined that if I'm not pregnant this time, it'll be time to go to the doctor and see what's up. Can it be June already?

Hi ladies. 15DPO and CTP days I am one day late and still no AF; hope it stays that way. Have not tested since Friday. Even though I'm anxious, but I think I will test tomorrow morning and that will tell me if I need to cancel my doctor's appointment in the morning. As I write this, I believe the baby stuck and I keep telling my kids to be careful. Went to the drugstore with the kids and the two ladies that I am friends with says that we should try for another one or twins. Didn't have the heart to tell them that I already am pregnant but wanting to confirm first. Don't think we will tell anyone except for the need to know; my parents for one. Will keep everyone update. Wish me luck everyone.

Dragonfly- I don't blame you for not saying anything yet. The ones who truly care about you understand. I keep praying your bean stuck.
Looks like friday is when I will get more tests and possibly test again

@Hberry. Thank you very much hun. I really appreciate that. Having some minor cramping right now and hope my little bean is nestling in safely and is getting comfortable. My stomach is still gurgling pretty good lying down. How's your belly acting? I never ordered my tests online before as I always went to the store. I hope your tests come sooner rather than later and you will get the answers you are looking for. Will keep everyone updated.

Hey guys - well I think I'm 1 or 2 dpo today (probably 2) and I'm very pleased with our timing. Officially in the TWW now! I have a good feeling about this cycle, but won't let myself be bothered if it doesn't work. All in God's time! The day after tomorrow I start taking a new prenatal from my naturopath which has better quality active folate which is more appropriate for me given my MTHFR gene defect - the catch is that activated b vitamins have caused panic attacks after 2 weeks and worsened my anxiety when my methylation cycle was out! I'm taking choline to support that cycle tbough, so hopefully it won't be a problem, but I'm oh, so nervous regardless.

@Alex. Thank you. I was a crazy tester too as I tested since 8dpo (very faint line) up and until 14dpo (see photos with my day to day testing) with my last pregnancy.

@E_Massey. I read your comment on my test and thank you; I agree. Hoping and praying you guys caught the egg and I hope the vitamines help you to regulate things.

AFM, my son decided to get up an hour early so I have yet to test. Will update when I get to work in an hour.
