  • 1940sgal, that sounds like implantation bleeding. Fingers crossed it is for you!

    Skimper, fingers crossed for you! Do you do anything to check for ovulation?

    , I didn’t realise you were in NZ! Naively I presumed everyone was from the UK! It is certainly not warm in the midlands right now hahaha

    Time to get dressed and hit the local shopping centre! I’m hoping I can get everything I need before it gets too busy.

    CCJ, Got our work do on 22nd. If I am pregnant i'll know by then so i won't be drinking but we don't want to tell everyone straight away so i'm going to have to be the 'designated driver'! :rotfl:
  • Skimper that's so useful for you that your body is regular! I don't think there's a need to check if you have seen consistent results.

    Shopping was a success! I still have 4ish things to sort but I am hoping a trip to an outlet near work one night this week or Amazon prime will help with that! I am exhausted now though!

    Everyone who I've spoken to who conceived quickly said they didn't use anything and took a chilled approach, and those that took a while said when they stopped focusing on it, it happened so I'm trying to take the chilled out approach and see how we go.

    I've got another works do next weekend which I won't know by & then another one with my 2 best friends on 21st, which I may know by, but neither of them drink & i don't like to drink on my own so my excuse is already there.
  • It's an awkward time of year with all the festivities! If I don't see AF I'll be testing on 22nd... suspicious will definitely be on a high if I turn down alcohol lol.
    Fingers crossed for some bfps this month!!
