    PKK - Yeah I think they are, I should be ovulating today. I didn't even know there were signs of ovulation like that until I had a google last night. We managed to BD last night & hopefully tonight & tomorrow, if I can get the OH on board haha. Then all days should be covered & in with a good chance this cycle.

    Lulu - That's a brilliant weight loss, i'm doing slimming world too, so far managed to lose a stone & then stalled. Weigh in tonight but I'm not feeling great about it from all the bloating!

    Thank you all for your comments - I knew you guys would understand.

    CD38 today, usually 28/29 cycles so I guess I will be heading out this evening to buy a test!
    I love the idea of a special take away - celebrate or comfort food ready either way!

    thanks all, it really is great to have somewhere to come and lay out your thoughts without being judged - just understod!

  • Good luck wjn keep us updated!
    Ugh I've put on a stone since our wedding and it sounds terrible but I'm not focused on losing it because I feel like I'm going to get fat anyway.
    I'm the biggest I've ever been and the extra weight has pushed my BMI into the overweight category so I really should do something about it just lacking the motivation at the moment!
    Soo tired today and have a spot, I haven't been logging symptoms on my app but checked this cd last month and it was exactly the same. Pretty sure I'm not pregnant this month! Would be lovely to share the news at Christmas though!

  • WJN222 fingers crossed for you this morning, let us know how you get on.

    CCJ, alot of my weight has crept on after my wedding too! however I know that to sustain a healthy pregnancy and be eligible for fertility treatment (if we need it) then I need to have a healthy BMI. Currently my BMI is in the obese catergory (eek!) so first target is to loose 12lbs to get back into the 'overweight' category.
  • It's so hard PKK lol...I had fruit for breakfast this morning...need to get my act together!

  • Pretty Kitty - basically while pregnant with J, at the dating scan, they discovered a large cyst. They were worried it was cancer - and it grew quite big so I had an operation to remove it when I was 16+6. It was majorly scary! They had to remove one of my ovaries because the cyst had grown up and round it.

    Special hugs WJN222 - however things turn out..

  • CCJ, I admire you having fruit for breakfast I can never do that! It never feels like enough! haha I have managed 4 days staying within my calories. I must admit I do feel like my cravings for food seem to be starting to subside. I am hoping this will 'retrain' my brain. The weekend is DEFINITELY going to be testing though, I'm not sure I will manage that within calories but I'll try my best!

    Aunty-Pickle oh gosh that sounds like an awful time! I am glad it was discovered and not more serious and J was all ok too! An old work colleague of mine had an ectopic pregnancy and has to have a tube and ovary removed. She was pregnant again 3 months later. Fingers crossed for you!

    Off to have my blood test today. Only CD19 so it is a little early but also going to have one on Monday so I will be able to see what my progesterone level is doing! We BD last night and hoping to get one more in before fertile window ends on Sunday.
