Welcome aboard ladies.
Please be seated, you may undo your seatbelts as soon as you see the SWI sign light up.

I'll be coming round with cake, biscuits and wine.

Come on girls, we can do it this month.

Heads held high and legs akimbo, off we go.

Candy After my big POAS addiction last month I vote you test but then again like I said I think I have a problem and love it when people join me Grin

combatqueen · 13/03/2012 22:34

Hi everyone, I've been busy joining the mile high club sleeping during most of the flight so far. Just checking in to say hi. Congratulations to all the bfp so far and sorry to those who are off the flight.

Candy fingers crossed af doesn't show, I'm feeling the same right now, been having af cramps all day so have a feeling she will show in the next day or two :-(

LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 22:29

Candy I vote you should test. Your longest day has been 32, and you have a First response - does that give you a result 4 days early?

Interesting what you mentioned about cm - I have also noticed some cm today which seemed unusual before AF (I have been charting) but then I am looking hard for signs.

I am tempted to join you... if AF doesn't arrive in the night.

CandyPop · 13/03/2012 22:19

Oh and pipbin love the stats! Especially the rounding up Wink

CandyPop · 13/03/2012 22:04

Ok so went to the toilet today every hour or so thinking AF has come but she's holding off! The question is to test or not to test 2mo?!?!

Let me present the evidence ;

Currently cd31 , 2mo will be cd32
Last few cycles have been 32, 29, 29, 31
No real symptoms apart from AF like stomach cramps since last Monday
Also noticed some cm today (cloudy).... Is that unusual when expecting AF ?!

So ..... Please cast your votes now !!

If I am pregnant will I get a bfp?

I've got a first response to use....

Rudawakening · 13/03/2012 21:53

Hi all

Congrats chunky on your BFP, it's fantastic news. fingers crossed and baby dust to everyone else still in 2ww

Sorry to all those who AF got at least you know and can start again.

Haven't been posting much as trying not to get too obsessed this month, last month I cried for hours when AF showed up. Am much more serene -crazy- this month.

Am 9dpo as ov early and today I have started to feel sick, it's coming in waves and I don't think I am imagining it! Scared to get my hopes up.

LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 21:32

thanks Smile

There we go Limeleaf, I knew there was someone I missed but I'm damned if I could where.

LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 21:30

ooh I like the new odds! although I have let the side down with not DTD every other day

LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 21:28

Tuesday I am hoping Wednesday afternoons are were the new Saturdays for me! Grin

Pipbin · 13/03/2012 21:27

Actually if you put DTD every other day into Fertility Friend it makes it 40%. So that means 12 BFPs assuming you have been DTD every other day, which we all have I'm sure.

9 to go ladies!

OP posts:
LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 21:27

Pipbin, you've missed me...
LimeLeafLizard TTC#4, Cycle 1(or 3), AF due 14th March (tomorrow!)

That makes 9.6 BFPs due, then? So doesn't alter the stats much!!

TuesdayNightClub · 13/03/2012 21:22

Very true - Tuesday nights are the new Saturdays! Grin

I like your statistics pipbin and just so that your Mathematics is proved right I will bravely step up to the plate and try to become one of those missing 7 bfps! Smile

I know there was someone else who put down their details but I couldn't find them.

Now, I'm one for statistics and figures. There are 28 of us in the list. Theory is that a third of us should get BFPs. That means 9.3 BFPs from this flight. As we can't have a .3 of a person, let's say 10 BFPs
We have had three already, that means 7 more to go!

If you have been missed, or if I have missed a BFP then please change it.

Congratulations Chunky

Panda sorry AF showed up.

LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 21:02

Well Tuesday I hope you have your satisfaction tonight! Wink

Surely Tuesday night should be your night?

TuesdayNightClub · 13/03/2012 20:56

Ps good luck and I hope AF doesn't arrive! Fingers crossed!

TuesdayNightClub · 13/03/2012 20:56

limeleaf we have spoken about it but it isn't really resolved to my satisfaction, so to speak I blame dh's very stressful job... I'm sure it'll be fine, I would just hate to miss the window of opportunity as I have fairly long cycles.

Congratulations Chunky!

Commiserations Panda. AF is a bitch isn't she.

OP posts:
LimeLeafLizard · 13/03/2012 19:11

Panzee hope it is just a bit of spotting and doesn't develop further... see how it goes.

I am dreading going to the loo atm in case AF arrives. She's due late tonight / tomorrow.

Tuesday sorry you're feeling a bit fed up. I think it is a myth that men are always up for it, and I think the pressure of having to swi doesn't help. Can you ask him about it?

TuesdayNightClub · 13/03/2012 18:48

Argh message cut off!

Good luck to all 2wwers and all others!

TuesdayNightClub · 13/03/2012 18:47

Yay to chunky fab news.

And sorry to panda

I am feeling mightily sorry for myself today, no real reason just out of sorts. Annoyed at what I feel is a lack of effort from DH in the swi dept, I thought men were meant to be gagging for it all the time and particularly in fertile times.... Confused I feel like I'm carrying the burden of TTC while he sits around, waiting for me to jump his bones, and asking 'are u pg yet?' I love him dearly but he was sent to test me, I'm sure of it!

Anyway, I'm finally approaching ov so I'm going to snap out of it and try to enjoy the flight! Not for the journey but the destination!

better did u try b6 and do u think it has made a difference this month?

Good luck to all 2wwers and

Panzee · 13/03/2012 18:14

Got some spotting, I think this is it for this month. To be honest I didn't have high hopes. Must focus better for next month - although might be a Christmas baby then! Shock :o

PrimalChic · 13/03/2012 18:02

I like it, "put a biscuit in it love". Might offer biscuits to people spouting rubbish at work :)

Had a massage after gardening yesterday so hoping all those relaxed feelings will help with the TTC this month... And I'm planning the garden around me not being able to move very much this summer. Lots of waist-height planting so I don't have to bend.

It amazes me that anyone conceives in this month, how can there be so many nov/dec babies when all we do is work and work and work up until year end?! I get a few more grey hairs every march.

Fingers crossed AF stays away for you ladies at the end of your 2WW, here's hoping some of chunky's luck rubs off on us this month!
