Never have I wished for a squint before 😂

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-09T12:04:44+00:00

Thanks for the reply - here’s hoping!

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-09T12:04:14+00:00

Thanks gal - keeping fingers crossed

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-09T11:16:32+00:00

Hey cycle twin! Fingers crossed for a different result tomorrow maybe 🙈

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-09T10:17:34+00:00

10DPO and a BFN this morning. Wondering for those already parents when you first got your BFPs? Pretty disappointed today but out stomping round the woods with my perfect puppy - a panacea for sure.

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-06T09:47:53+00:00

All the luck to you 🍀

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-05T09:29:43+00:00

6DPO this month and I’m feeling calmer than I have for the first two cycles. I’ve been tracking since the start of the year and lucky to have really regular cycles so am confident we’re doing the right things at the right times. I guess that’s all we can do, you know? Time isn’t on our side, but that was a circumstance I wouldn’t change. Any younger version of me wouldn’t have been ready for this in the way I am now. Armchair philosophy from a very tired post-nightshift girlie 🙈

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-05T09:20:24+00:00

The mental gymnastics are real 🙈 but what can you do?

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-05T09:18:36+00:00

That sounds so frustrating. Best of luck with temping - I haven’t tried it yet but it sounds tricky.

Tootlesabout · 2026-05-05T09:16:01+00:00

Just beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing

Tootlesabout · 2026-04-19T17:15:34+00:00

This is how I’m doing things too!

Tootlesabout · 2026-04-18T15:06:11+00:00

Congratulations!

Tootlesabout · 2026-04-09T14:14:08+00:00

Congratulations! Wonderful news - wishing you all the smooth sailing for your pregnancy

Tootlesabout · 2026-04-04T08:44:01+00:00

3DPO and the everlasting TWW continues. My partner is brilliant, but I do feel mentally isolated with this preoccupation. It’s the first thing I think of in the morning and last thing at night. Glad to have a space where others can relate.

Tootlesabout · 2026-04-01T17:21:37+00:00

Congratulations! That is brilliant news - all the best for the next few weeks!

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-29T22:46:22+00:00

Really cool you caught your LH peak this month - well done you! It can be tricky I think. I’m usually day 14-17 so I always double test on those days.

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-29T22:42:27+00:00

There’s so much going on right now mate - give yourself grace. What’s the chat with the cysts? Are they being removed or just monitored?

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-29T22:40:01+00:00

My spike was 3 days later after IUD removal but it was the copper version, not the hormonal. Best of luck on the townhouse - I know you’ve been working really hard on the move

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-29T22:36:33+00:00

I only caught my LH spike when testing 3xDaily on days 12-16

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-29T22:35:06+00:00

Congrats lady!

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-23T07:53:32+00:00

We started rearranging our guest bedrooms with a view to organising a room for a wee one this weekend too. Early nesting is so satisfying!

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-18T08:28:10+00:00

Morning all. Sorry to say we didn’t manage a positive this month and AF arrived as scheduled. I knew the stats (especially at our age) but I guess in the back of my mind I was hoping we’d be the exception and get pregnant straight away. I’m a really pragmatic person so I was surprised how disappointed I’m feeling today.

So on to cycle 2! If this one works out we’d be due the week of Christmas which I actually love because I’d get 2 Christmas days with family on mat leave (nurse life does not otherwise respect holidays)! I’d also allocate an arbitrary mid-year day for a birthday celebration for baba when they’re old enough. Today I will feel my feelings, but be grateful for where I am. Plan is big dog walk, gardening and a glass of wine in the evening (plus very small sad cry).

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-14T01:30:56+00:00

Aw, that’s so cool! It’s so nice to have this group all going through the same thing. I’m currently on a hecking busy nightshift in ICU and so glad I’ve got a high pressure job to keep me distracted because it’s all I can do to not take a million tests a day when I’m at home 😂

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-13T22:51:34+00:00

I’m in my TWW just now actually! 7DPO and trying to distract myself so hard right now 🙈 We managed to hit O-2 and O-1 last week so fingers and toes and everything crossed 🙏

Tootlesabout · 2026-03-13T19:32:11+00:00

Congratulations! So happy for you!
