Our offer has been accepted!!!

This was all so last minute.

On Monday after our offer had been rejected on another property we started looking online for more to view. That's when we saw this mid-terraced 3 bed home in the exact town we've been eyeing up for months. So on Monday night we booked a viewing for Tuesday.

Well after the viewing yesterday we placed an offer right away and it was accepted.

I'm over the moon, absolutely delighted.

We're about to become homeowners.

January 2020 🏡

Wah!!! We didn't get the house 💔

Someone came in and sneakily bid more once we finally got to our highest offer 😔

I'm truly gutted, it was a lovely home that I could see us starting a family in 😭😭😭

Placing an offer on a house tomorrow morning. I'm soooo nervous right now it's making me feel sick.

This house is perfect, I literally knew from the moment I saw the listing that this was the house for us.

I really hope we get it 🤞

Well I've finally bitten the bullet and decided to join Slimming World. I've been following it from home without being a member since January.

Since moving back to the UK I gained a little weight not but just a few pounds but I need to keep going.

Fingers crossed I can start to see weekly weight losses from now on 🤞

Also I got myself a Princess Planning weightless planner, so pretty 😍

CD5 - Cycle 2 - 25/07/19

Here we go again!

We have a very busy month ahead so I'm not exactly hopeful but you never know.

We got pregnant last time one cycle after we decided to postpone trying as we had set a (short) date for our wedding.

So very true!

An old friend of mine posted something similar on Facebook today.

She has been having a very challenging year to say the least. She was diagnosed with cervical cancer back in December and underwent chemotherapy and as far as I was aware everyone was optimistic.

Well, this week she found out that it is terminal. My heart aches for her. She is only 29 and has 2 very young children.

On a positive note I did ovulate so I am happy to have found that out.

Here have a selfie!!

I'm about to go meet the hubby after he finishes work. Then we are meeting with 2 other couples for dinner to say bye to them before we leave HK.

I can't believe we're now down to 3 weeks left. I've started to get so emotional every time I think about going home.

This little piggy...

ate the contents of the fridge today 😣

To say I have had an appetite today would be an understatement. I have been one little piggy. Anything and everything I could get my hands on went in my gob. I have also been in and out of naps all day. I'm truly exhausted.

If it turns out I'm not pregnant then I will be shocked. I've never felt like this before. The only other time I've ever had tender/painful breasts for this long (3weeks) was when I was last pregnant. I've also had a snotty nose, no other cold symptoms, for almost 2 weeks.

And my tummy just feels off. Its hard to explain, it's not pains, it's not gas. It's like a feeling, nauseous butterflies, I don't know. I just feel strange.

Oh and the headaches 😣

I'm only 10DPO, so I've got a few more days to wait before I test 😬

10 DPO

I can't get enough sleep to continue testing my BBT.

The last two nights i have been wakening every 1-2hrs and before my regular waking time. This is not fun and extremely annoying. I tried going to bed later last night to see if that would help with sleeping longer but nope.

In bed I'm getting super uncomfortable and hot (even though AC is on) and I just can't seem to stay asleep for long before I have to roll over or adjust myself.

Do you think my husband is starting to get a little impatient?

I don't blame him, I am too.

I must resist the urge to waste tests, it's far to early 🙈
