congrats a fresh start!

back at work now after a week off. I've been here an hour and I'm livid. I left a handover for the other guy to pick up and hardly any of it has been done. A lot of it is data retrieval which will now take me days to catch up on! grrrrrr


I think I might have ovulated yesterday, to be honest I haven't a clue where I'm as as I haven't given it much thought.

Cheers girls, it's a bit surreal! I've done another test this morning- just to make sure it's still happening!!!! In a bit of a daze really, as I wasn't actually trying this month! OH is mega chuffed, bouncing all over the place just trying to contain him and keep him from blurting it to all and sundry!!

Unfortunately I am in no mans land literally!!! Had a early miscarriage/chemical pregnancy on week 5 and was about to start ivf the month after. Currently waiting my cycle to start and get a scan to see if I can go ahead with ICSI in January... So I don't know where you can put me .....

Congrats freshstart!


Well, I have been having ewcm for a few days... as fits where abouts I am in my cycle. However, on the OPKs there is not even a snifter of a LH surge... doesn't help I have a sickness bug at the mo so can't even find the energy to BD

hello ladies

mind if I join? I've been trying to pluck up the courage to post for a while, but realised tonight you are probably the only people who will understand my weirdness (I hope!).

I was starting to think this month I would be out as had not had signs of ov, and am CD24. I was even expecting an early AF as I had stomach cramps all weekend and been really irritable, but, sorry if tmi, went to the loo at work and noticed ewcm, and did a little dance in the toilet cubicle! I didn't have any last cycle so it seemed dance worthy! :rotfl:
I felt so excited all afternoon only to be really deflated when I got in as OH is feeling ill and said he was going straight to bed with a cold & flu sachet and a hot water bottle.:( Not quite the early night I'd imagined!:o

Anyways hope all are well, sorry for any AFs.

May I be added to the list as CD24 ?awaiting ov / 0DPO today.

Congratulations A Fresh Start! :j:j

I'm expecting to OV in the next day or so. Been much more relaxed this month. I started Slimming World in a bid to help with TTC and it has given me something else to focus my energies on. Should be better in the TWW too as I will be doing the hosting over christmas and should be due to test a day or two after everyone has gone.

Welcome to the newbies!

musogirl - how strong of you to start Slimming World so close to Xmas, I certainly wouldn't be able to stick it! I really need to get my backside into gear and start weight loss - just seen some old photos of me and I can't believe I thought I was fat back then! I have had an overindulgent fortnight though so should feel better about myself soon enough - on it properly in January

I am a long time yoyo dieter! I was about the size I am now (18-20) before I got pregnant with DD but I'm 5 years older now and I can't bear the thought that I haven't tried everything possible to conceive. If we should have to seek help the first thing they will say is to lose weight, so I feel like I'm getting a jump on it!

It helps that I do the cooking and hosting for the whole xmas period, so I'm running about a lot and it's fairly easy to adapt the christmas dinner to slimming world.

Problem is, I've been the same dress size for about 8 years now but my weight has increased. I've always been a 14-16, although I am wearing a medium skirt from Forever 21 but bought a size 18 from Primark that only just zips up!

Yeah I suppose SW has that plus side that you can have as much of XYZ as you like - plus Fry Light is amazing.

I just need to cut all of the junk food out and start snacking on healthy food and I'll be fine. With my old job I used to run around all the time and had the time to go to the gym 5 times a week. Now I work an hour from home in an office job so quite lazy now
