Hi there!
It’s great that you’re trying for a baby! Yes, pregnancy symptoms can be similar to premenstrual ones... It’s tough that you don’t have a regular cycle... And about ovulation... Well, some people say you can feel it, but I can’t really tell you exactly what you should feel... I think the easiest way is to buy an ovulation test kit. The leaflet usually tells you which days to test based on a 30-day or 35-day cycle, so just test on those days, I’d say. I’m also 30 years old and nearly 6 months pregnant with my second child, and I’ve used ovulation tests twice with positive results!!

    Thank you so much! Oh my, day 51, yes indeed, it's super exciting, isn't it! The first thing I noticed was that I could smell things much better than before, things that others couldn't smell, and I had immediate issues with extreme sensitivity, worse than when you have to have your period, if someone was too close to me my eyes would fill up with tears immediately , and indeed sensitive breasts... I'm rooting for you that it's there too!

    Greetings

    You'll probably notice a lot of tears coming in the next months, hehe! Sometimes you might even get a bit crazy from all those hormones, thinking things like 'what am I doing now?'... But everything's going well here! I was really nauseous at first, but luckily it didn't last long! Now I have no problems at all! It's a big boy in my belly!

    hey, alé you've got something nice to look forward to, the first ultrasound! exciting! i had to go for a check-up yesterday, everything is fine with the little one, she already weighs 800 grams!
    with our daughter i was much sicker than i am now, had to stop working earlier because i was vomiting so much and almost fainted at times! hopefully the nausea isn't too bad for you!!

    hey hey, glad to hear everything is fine!!! we're also still renovating, now it's the attic's turn where the kids' rooms will be, she's still sleeping in our room! so now we're really looking for which colors and wallpaper we'll use and such... a girl's room is easy but for a boy it's a bit of a search to find something nice!!
    yeah hey that waiting takes a long time hey, I know that very well hihi!
    the heat isn't too bad yet, I can handle it!

    greetings

    Hi hi mama...

    How's the renovation going for you guys?

    Here, the roof is finally back on, thank goodness!!!

    Yeah, it's not all easy for a boy, you have so much for the girls!!!

    I was thinking about just painting the walls... And making a few sections on the wall... And doing those with chalk paint.

    Example... a green wall with 3 sections in anthracite chalk paint... When they're a bit older, they can draw on the wall with chalk without it being a problem... You can also use magnetic paint. You can stick magnets on the wall just like on the fridge;-) Just an idea.

    Xx and have fun!!!

    Hey, yeah it's nice if they can write on the walls, we were going to do that first in the kitchen to write shopping lists and stuff but we're afraid they'd write on all the walls! Yeah, I think it's going to be a renovation leave for my friend instead of relaxation! Tomorrow your ultrasound, good luck! X

    No, sweetheart, July 31st is tomorrow... One more day to wait... Pffff

    Yeah, I get what you mean. My friend has already put in two half-weeks and he’s only been doing repair work and stuff... He has another half-week left, hoping he can relax a bit during the last week...

    No sweetie, it's only July 31st tomorrow... One more day to wait... Pffff

    Yeah, I get what you mean. My friend has already worked half a week and he's only been doing repair work and stuff... He has another half week off, hoping he can relax a bit in the last week....
