No more Pill!! This is it!! Starting a JULY-AUG 2012 bus...

Here's an odd one, for the last three days, around 3.30pm or say mid afternoon, I've felt really sick! It lasts 2 or 3 hours :(

Had positive OPK last night and lots of EWCM so I'm assuming it's linked to ovulation?

Anyone else get this?

yes, just British. Houses of Parliament and all that...

Apparently, myth/just a load of bollocks, it gives the swimmers a boost!

I'm willing to try anything, within reason!!

DP is finding all this baby making rather entertaining and has been game, bless. He also admitted to reading up about 'stuff' instead of leaving all the myths for me to find!

Is Guy Fawes just a British thing?(I'm thick ) I missed it last year as we were in Vancouver (love that place)

MM xx

WTF is the big mug of coffee method!?

Am missing out on Guy Fawkes here in Germany. DP has offered to set fire to the garden fence in lieu. I have politely declined....

Fish I hope you get some positive news today about your Grandma xx

Sounds like AF is doing her rounds, nasty b*tch!! Eff off!:(

I've finally untied DP so he can have a rest!

This baby making is causing a lot of giggles, making things less hard than they should be iykwim! We tried the big mug of coffee method this morning, I wonder if it actually helps?!

Any one going to bonfires and fireworks tonight? DP will no doubt suggest we go up on the moors to watch everyone else's! Tight Yorkshire boy!

my prediction waters are telling me......... not a chance!

Well done Cauldron, can you predict if I'll survive another 3-4 days without testing?

Grandma still in hospital, her doctors are coming round this morning to tell her how they plan to proceed.

I'm off to a 9-hour shift at work but all I have to do today is shadow one of our head managers so I'm excited about that!

Only 1 more day til I can possibly get a positive on a First Response, I haven't peed on anything in over a week now so I'm anxious!

Well I am amazed at my powers of guesswork prediction - AF is here bang on 28 days after my withdrawal bleed! Do I presume I'm back on regular cycles? I wouldn't be surprised as am usually pretty regular and was only on the pill 3 months last time...

The downside is I feel like utter poo. Lurching stomach, nausea, massive bloating and discomfort. AF, don't we just love her!!?

Still no AF or depending if the witch is actually just late or I'm pregnant!
Now 4 days late, I'm going to test again later today with a first response, shall let you know how I get on fingers crossed this limbo is horrible

12 hour* shift

Morning all :)

What are everyone's plans for today?

I'm taking DD to the working farm for a coffee (me, not her - she can have milk) and then heading to some friends tonight for fireworks.

Bad luck on the 12 shift Vino - I remember those :( Spent 7 years doing that every Saturday

It' alright Cauldron, I had a Caffiene free diet coke instead too! I'm trying to cut down on my drinking, especially around O time! Chocolate I can't give up for anyone though!!

Right, back to work for a 12 hour shift :( I certainly know how to have fun on a Saturday!!

Hope you're feeling better Fish

Yay for everyone being so positive!

I'm feeling poopy this eve - about this close (holds fingers very close together) to upchucking the dinner I haven't eaten yet but just ordered from Domino's

Fingers crossed I don't get ill - big day at work tomorrow

Goodnight lovely ladies!

I would drink to being positive Vino, but I'm trying so hard to have a month off alcohol before Xmas. I'm drinking too much, plus I need to lose a few pounds, plus it helps ttc, surely?

Its sooooo hard though!! I'll have a instead

Evening Everyone

Vino sorry AF showed up.

Not sure what to make of things at the moment (tmi coming up) I was sure I ovulated last week end. Have had watery cm all week and then today got the thick clear snot like cm which is what I got last weekend. Is this what normally happens.

That's exciting Minky. I was ecstatic when I got mine! Have fun over the next 36hrs or so

Try Not to worry fish. Pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are identical! (except for sickness). Hot baths could cause a MC as it makes your temperature rise too much so it's best to avoid them.

Cauldron, I'll drink to being positive :) Cheers

Hmm might have spoken too soon, def feel AF cramps now

Perhaps I should not speak of any more symptoms until either BFP or AF!

Is it dangerous to take hot baths while pg?

Well done Minky!

I'm a basket of emotions, was checking out my boobs () in the mirror a few hours ago and have some more bumps on them? (sorry if this is way way TMI) and still feeling lots of tugging / stretching, it's a bit more insistent now. Doesn't really feel like AF cramps although it did a few days ago. Who bliddy knows I guess!

I'm trying to hold out to test until Monday but think I'll not be patient enough and do one on Sunday, when something like just 26% test positive

Evening Ladies!

Is everyone feeling a bit more cheery?

Sorry, I'm a bit excitable, I have a smile on my OPK. Poor old DP won't know whats hit him!

MM xx

I'm back!!!
My internet has been down since Monday - I've been climbing the walls which is perhaps a sign I need to cut down a bit?

clandy congratulations. That's fab news. Our first graduate - very exciting :)

Sorry for the AF arrivals and bfns - hopefully next month will be the one.

I'm on the 2ww and ssing like mad - and I promised myself I wouldn't do that this time. I have been feeling a bit sick but it's far too early for that and there's a bug going round work so it's most likely the start of that :(

that's odd Fish, I've never heard of that symptom....

I'm pretty positive AF is on its way this weekend. It'll be bang on 28 days if it comes tomorrow. I'm with Vino - I reckon I feel more positive about next month as we've had a sort of trial run now

Hi all. Having some very strange lower abdominal cramps? Almost feels like something tugging or stretching? Can honestly say never felt these before, they've been coming and going for the past 24 hours, but I only notice them when I'm able to sit in one spot for more than 5 mins (practically impossible in my job!)

Could they be implantation cramps?! (trying not to get too worked up) it's 6 days since O-day now. First response test says it can detect at 7dpo, but I don't think I'd get a positive test tomorrow at all. Think I'll wait til at least Sunday.

Vino so sorry AF arrived

Fish Still madly symptom spotting. Still feeling sick, constant tummy ache, sore nipples. POAS yesterday with a clear blue digital and still BFN. Will not be testing again till Tuesday when AF would be 1 week late, unless it turns up in the mean time, which I think it will. If it's going to turn up anyway would rather it just happen as the longer it takes the more I start to get my hopes up

Currently watching baby programmes on discovery home and health channel, making me extremely broody.

Good luck to all who have AF due soon, fingers cross it stays away and you all get a nice BFP
