Well Frustrated im still eating like a pig :). Ive just polished of my lunch and I'm still hungry. I hate twinges, I never know if they're good or bad.

Im up for waving my donuts about Blush. Trouble is I'll drop sugar all over the floor knowing me Grin

Have you recovered enough to POAS yet pink?

Sarah i got pains in both sides around OV time. I dont want twins though, one is enough Smile

Puppy thats bad news . Have a big glass of Wine

Lol how many dpo are you, and did you use a sensitive one?

frustratedpants · 21/08/2012 07:50

Oh Sad puppy 22 day cycle sucks. ttc aside, 2 afs a month is shittyBut at least you can enjoy drinks at BBQ and birthday. I'm gutted for you. Sad

lolcbcb [pout], I'm still holding out that you are too early to test. but I would have caved if I could have but we are still too early to expect anything other than a bfn today. 4days pre-AF still leaves some hope.

I'm feeling un-pg this morning. Even though I do feel sick

Lolcbcb · 21/08/2012 07:18

Caved in girls. Bfn for me. Sad
Still no af.

Lolcbcb · 21/08/2012 06:57

Yeah pink stay with us. fake symptom sporting is fun!
Frustrated I think I'm starting to crack. Don't know if I can wait till sat...

PuppyMummy · 21/08/2012 06:57

well we can safely say that I'm shedding and not implanting! as I suspected overnight its stopped spotting and started flowing...

very annoying, as it only makes this cycle 22 days. 23 if I count from today so its all over the place.

they had been getting longer and I thought had settled at 26. obviously not.

on the plus side - drinks for me at bank holiday bbq and drinks on my birthday in September!

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 23:41

Oh pink stay for a bit, I like the enthusiasm. Grin you really should er some donuts. I'll face the truth with you on Wednesday lol and I have that left sided crampy twinge again. and I need hands holding.

IBelieveInPink · 20/08/2012 23:25

Oh, nonono, I was just getting on board with the enthusiasm. Grin i have no lines, or donuts for that matter! I should really go and join the September Fred, but I kinda like it here Smile
Symptoms still there, but there is also a bug going around work. I think I have caught a bug, not a bump! Must try harder!

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 22:46

Pink is your line darker then?
Donut on the way Grin Grin
Call it willpower. I'm just too scared to face the truth.

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 22:42

wooo go pink! How are your symptoms tonight?

IBelieveInPink · 20/08/2012 22:36

Whoop whoop! I'm in! ...............

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 22:02

Hi sarah i think it is possible rare.
I craved cream and jam finger donuts with dd. but much later in the pregnancy.

lolcbcb that's serious will power!

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 21:56

Super rather than getting Pom poms Howe about we celebrate with donuts from now on! Bfp=big fat parent Grin

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 21:53

Hi slattern how's your hunger? Are you still starving too? I'm Envy of the nap.

Mmm donuts. But I have none left Sad I ate the last 2 for breakfast [pig]
not as nauseous as I was yesterday, but still early. Plus I'm still pigging eating.
And feeling twingy right behind my belt again. Hmm

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 21:52

Frustrated I drove past a tesco today and had to work very hard not to stop and get a donut! It is something else to dream about rather than babies!

Sarahbump1 · 20/08/2012 21:50

Ooh and congrats berri!!

Sarahbump1 · 20/08/2012 21:48

Hello all - just finished work so am checking in.

Yes I have Internet cheapies!! 15 to start me off - could POAS every day until AF is due!! Resisting the urge so far though!!

I am also symptom spotting! But , saying that I had no symptoms at all with DD so I don't know if it will get me very far !!

Silly question - do you think you can ovulate from both ovaries during one cycle? It's just I get ovulation pains - and had it on both sides this month on two different days ( one day apart!) or was it just wind? And am I secretly wishing for twins!!

MightBeMad · 20/08/2012 21:46

Hi all. Good luck to those still testing or waiting. I'm off to the September thread Sad

SuperSlattern · 20/08/2012 21:23

not feeling sick anymore? I think you should have some more donuts, just to make sure Grin. Maybe I'll join you Smile

Ooh puppy that sounds promising. I've got everything crossed for you Smile. Have you caved and POAS yet?

PuppyMummy · 20/08/2012 19:53

super I'm not sure what it is. its not behaving as af. its kind of gone atm...

I'm still feeling twingy and crampy a bit too so I tend towards thinking its some ridiculously early trickerish af laughing at me cos its messed my cycle up.

ill keep an eye on it and see what happens with it tomorrow.

mite just cross my fingers a bit too - just in case!

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 19:24

Ov was last Saturday. (I think) AF due Saturday (I think) Hmm so does that make me day 8 or 9? Do I count Ov day as 1? I can't POAS until Wednesday, so feeling sorry for myself symptom spotting however fake until my bfn on Wednesday. I've just eaten tea and hungry feeling piggy again.

lolcbcb I'm to lazy busy for Zumba.

maybe if I eat some more I'll feel sick again

SuperSlattern · 20/08/2012 18:57

Congrats berri, I'm sure it will be a BFP in the morning Grin

I'm sorry qazxc. Fx for next month

winkle I understand where your coming from. I took time out from it all and fell pregnant v easily. In fact I spent most of Dec off my face a little bit drunk. Got my BFP on the 29th Blush

puppy could it be a false bleed rather than an AF? Some women can still bleed throughout a pregnancy.

Hello to everyone else

Do I need to dust off my pom poms for lol and berri?

I'm not sure what to make of my symptoms this month. I've had some cramps, I'm starting to get hungrier fatty and today I took an afternoon nap because I was exhausted. I wish I could stop symptom spotting, pah!

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 18:21

Where are u on your cycle, frustrated?
Over hungry? Mmmmm
I'm eating crackers. But my excuse is that I'm on way to Zumba!

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 18:18

Yay berri I'm still hopeful! Cause u not due yet so maybe that's why bfn. That's why I don't test early (she says as if I'm the sensible one)!
Well no af for me today. Officially 1 day late on wtf cycle. Thought I had cramps but not craved chocolate so surely af is not on the way Grin

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 18:09

I am starving! despite having snacked eaten all day. I had breakfast and lunch, and a good few snacks too granted its coming up to dinner time, but I'm not sure I can wait that long and I dont usually get hungry.
Can someone feed me please
