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.

Took another test, it was just a little bit darker so you can just about see it without having to hold it up to the light. I think this is it ladies! DH stunned st the prospect of us creating a baby and had a little tear in his eye :) will test again on Saturday I think, just to see if it is getting stronger.

Pipbin · 22/03/2012 22:20

Hi Bonzo. FF says I can test Wednesday too. I'm going to test Sunday, which will be 10dpo anyway.

I promised I wouldn't but can I join. Want to hang out with some cheerful 2ww-ers. 5 days DPO here and have already POAS! Hmm Obviously a BFN but had internet cheapies hanging about in the bathroom. Fertility friend says I can test next wednesday though (cycles a bit off kilter with shortish luteal phase following mc, which I don't need to dwell on). Anyway, lots of well timed SWi this month (poor exhausted DH)! so feeling hopeful.

Stickle it isn't over until AF arrives, so don't give up hope yet. And your seat is already reserved on the next flight if you need it!

MrsT and Primal I have everything crossed that your faint lines are stronger next time. There won't be any tests left in the country if MrsT doesn't get AF or BFP soon! Wink

Good to hear updates from the graduates even if it is just to report feeling sick! Are you on the antenatal bus yet?!

Sticklebricksuk · 22/03/2012 19:36

Hi all. After the madness of last cycle I was hoping so much that I would be back to normal this time iykwim. But seemingly not. I'm on day 31 at the moment. I had some cramping on the evening of day 19 then a sharp pain on day 20 (so sharp that i did a swear out loud in my car) followed by a bit more cramping for a few hours then nothing else. Could this have been ovulation do we think? Is this what it feels like?! Then I've had a bit of cramping around my bikini line and a "full" feeling in my abdomen for the last couple of days but now nothing. Did a test this morning and a BFN, a Superdrug early one. Surely it would show at 11dpo if that was ovulation and I was up duffed? So I'm thinking that i'm out this month and have marked a seat on the santa sleigh.

I'm feeling a bit down today, was working in South Wales and saw two heavily pregnant children young girls puffing on cigarettes. How is this fair? Oh and my two best friends who conceived on cycles 1 and 2 respectively have just told me they're trying for their second dcs this summer. I desperately don't want to become bitter but I'm really not sure if I'll deal well if they announce their second pregnancies before I've managed to concieve my first. Please forgive my wallowing, but I'm just having a bit of a down day. Sad I'm sure i'll perk up soon Smile

Chunkychicken · 22/03/2012 19:32

That is so odd MrsT to a) have a line that disappears & b) have all those symptoms. Go to GP & ask to have a blood test maybe? That way you will know one way or the other, & hopefully stop symptom spotting, be pg or get AF. Hope you get a clear answer one way or another soon. x

Crazytictac · 22/03/2012 19:26

Huge congrats primal :)

Thanks pickled, hope the same applies to me this month!

Sounding more and more positive pipbin! Don't think you'll be disembarking from this flight any time soon.

We do have a lovely selection of food and drink already on the Santa sleigh though for any ladies who might be joining us

MrsTwinks · 22/03/2012 19:04

superdrug gave me a very faint line that then disappeared.. so thats a theme :(

TBH chunky I think I do need the Dr. I'm really worried now that something is wrong with me because surely I should be testing positive by now. maybe I'm having a hysterical pregnancy ?? :(

Chunkychicken · 22/03/2012 18:26

Have had that fluttering a lot too - is it a change in blood flow do you think?

And MrsT if you're not pg, you need to get to a Dr cos you're clearly not well!!! Grin

Pipbin · 22/03/2012 18:18

I had fluttering along the bikini line today.
No more spotting since the one wipe wonder yesterday (6dpo) morning.

OP posts:
PrimalChic · 22/03/2012 17:47

MrsT it sounds as though you have every symptom except the positive test!

You can do superdrug ones at any time of the day. Plucking up the courage to do another before I drive up north for the wedding. Worried it'll be a bfn and that it was all down to a bad test!

Have sharp twinges all along my knicker line, eyes and mouth are dry and boobs are veiny. Nowt else.

MrsTwinks · 22/03/2012 13:45

Oh an chunky, my sickness hits in about 11am and lasts all day. I think it needs to be sued under trade descriptions act!!

MrsTwinks · 22/03/2012 13:43

I'm now 5 days late, so about 19dpo on a (supposed) 30 day cycle no sign of af or even any more cramps. I feel like crap, tired, headaches and sick and oh so bloody hungry. Sod you lot being on tender hooks, if I'm not pregnant I am in dire need of a drink !!!! Wink

No Superdrug local to me so had to wait until today to get one of those, will try them tomorrow. But yes, every test known to man and dh has taken to supervising as I am obviously doing it wrong Blush

Pipbin · 22/03/2012 12:54

Primal there is plenty of space left in the BFP seats.

No more spotting for me so far today and a temp rise this morning.

PrimalChic · 22/03/2012 11:53

Ooh I forgot about cat poo! Woohoo! No more litter changing for me, that's brilliant!!

The test is at home and I'm at work, oh I should've taken a picture! I doubt it would have come out in a pic as it's very, very light. Fingers crossed it's a real one and not a dud test!!

MrsT have you tried the superdrug earlies? They're in pink boxes. Apparently they're more sensitive than CBbor FR and at £8 for 4, much cheaper!

Chunkychicken · 22/03/2012 10:49

Sorry you're out for this month Asian better luck on the sleigh...

Fingers crossed it wasn't a fluke PrimalChic :)

Can't believe no BFP yet MrsT that must be some imagination or tricky little bean you've got there!!! Wink Have you tried every test known to man yet??!!

I started feeling sick at 11pm last night - I mean WTF??!! 'Morning' sickness I don't think so... But at least it's sticking so I can live with it. Don't remember it being so early with DD either, as only 5+3 today, & think I only found out at 4+5 last time, so wouldn't have escaped my notice iyswim. Weird.

Good luck for all those still flying and all those joining Santa... :)

PickledHegg · 22/03/2012 10:36

OMG Primal that is so exciting...a line is a line after all :)

LimeLeafLizard · 22/03/2012 09:55

asianbabe come and join us on the Sleigh ride...

Primal sounds hopeful! You're not supposed to go near cat poo when pg though because of the bugs you can catch from it... get DH to clean up after her from now on! My cats loved me when I was pg - the male one used to sit on me all the time.

MrsTwinks Your body is keeping us all on tenterhooks... your DH might be loving the boobs but I want an answer!

TuesdayNightClub · 22/03/2012 09:52

Oh sounds very promising primal can you post a pic for the jury?

Sorry to hear about AF arriving french and asian (sounds like I'm listing cuisines!)

I'm 7dpo, had bad cramps during the night which I have experienced in previous months too. Not terribly hopeful.

Holland and Barrett have buy one get one half price at the moment as well for any B6ers.

Good luck Mrs T as well hopefully you will get an answer one way or the other soon!! I wouldn't mind some Jordan boobs! Smile

PrimalChic · 22/03/2012 09:31

It's not for certain, it was very very light but definitely pink. Going to test again tonight.

Came out of bathroom to see cat had done a dirty protest as she's annoyed about being kept in all day. Cleaning up poo, let's hope it's something I should be getting used to!

It's looking good for you MrsT, how many dpo are you?

MrsTwinks · 22/03/2012 09:22

Congrats primal

(I do now officially hate you thou lol, bfn here again, dh no longer cares he's loving the Jordan-esk boobsWink )

asianbabe · 22/03/2012 09:06

Congrats primal Grin

asianbabe · 22/03/2012 09:05

Looks like I'm off this flight af turned up 2am in the morning!!! I'm off to catch the next flight good luck to those still testing

PrimalChic · 22/03/2012 08:06

OMG

OMG

OMG!!??!

I looked at the test after cleaning my teeth... There's a very feint line. It's there though. OMG. I just put my lenses in the wrong way around. Shock

PrimalChic · 22/03/2012 07:53

Hmmm temp dropped again this morning, not looking promising. Have a couple of pre-AF spots, achy boobs and mild cramps. POAS just in case and bfn. Looks like I'm drinking at that wedding tomorrow!!

Good luck MrsT and Pipbin! We need more bfps!!
