Hi everyone - I've started the new thread as our original one is nearly full.

I really hope that this is the one where we all get our BFPs and don't have to experience any more heartache.

Anyone else wana share how long it took afta mc to get AF? Please help.x

BelissimaLol · 05/12/2012 19:54

Hi almond I think you are a couple of days behind me. I think I'm 5+3 and only found the guts to do digi today. So def wait till the weekend and not panic. This whole thing is exhausting!!! I'm counting days till scan. 9 days. Hoping ill relax after that bug somehow I doubt it.

Clairey2012 · 05/12/2012 19:46

Iv jst found out wot dtd stands for.lol. Yes we hav lots, thort I were preg last weekend bt ng test on mon. Hmmmm?

Clairey2012 · 05/12/2012 19:37

Sorry iv not quite caught onto baby net speak yet, wot is dtd? Im rubbish.l

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 19:33

Have you been dtd, clairey?

Clairey2012 · 05/12/2012 19:31

Hi peeps how long hav people waited for their AF. 6 weeks n still waiting, so frustraited!

AlmondFrangipani · 05/12/2012 19:10

Posy Yes to the faint BFP!! Last time around those Asda jobbies were the ones that showed up first. What DPO are you? If I have got my dates right (who knows) I will be due 6th August ish so thinking I can escape at least beginning of July! I might have to have an early c-section because of my kidneys so it may even be sooner...count down will begin in Jan!

Pink I am jealous of your prosecco drinking! Have a glass for me Xmas Wink.

Lol that is great news! I did another CB digi a few days ago and it was still 1-2 so trying not to panic. I am 5 weeks+1 according to FF but not sure if it is a bit less. Going to try again at the weekend and hope it has gone up!

Sorry to everyone having WTF cycles and delayed AF's. I felt like mine was coming and going for quite awhile. I think I had random spotting then a few days later bam!

Peanut that is one of my first symptoms and being very thirsty! Fx. When are you poas??

Brave I would feel the same to be honest. I am green eyed monster to anyone who is seemingly to be having a smooth pg. I have promised myself not to go on and on on Facebook if this one works out.

Waves to anyone I have missed x

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 17:36

What about an emoticon for supersucks?!

They don't know actually, and I'm happy for it to stay that way, but it's up to OH if he wants to tell them.

I think yours is still reasonable, particularly bearing in mind the mc AND the fact you are a whirling dervish of crazy hormones at the moment.

BraveLilBear · 05/12/2012 17:32

I want an emoticon for evil cat. That would be awesome. Not that that was evil - in any way shape or form. That falls under 'totally reasonable reaction to ill-timed news of a grief-stricken cat'. Next to that, mine translates to 'spoilt brat territory'. Xmas Blush

Seriously though, that supersucks. Hope they are being supportive...

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 17:20

That was waay more than a strikethrough fail wasn't it. Ok- I'll take responsibility for trying to persuade him then, if I must. Xmas Smile

You feel bad at 'evil bear' for that? I am waay worse! I freaked out totally to hear of OH's brother's latest 3d scan and all the details of how the baby had his hand over his face blah blah blah. Admittedly learning of this on day of mmc scan isn't great timing but still, rest assured I am definitely a bigger evilcat!

BraveLilBear · 05/12/2012 17:03

Lol at your strikethrough fail and who needs to persuade hubby? Surely not us!

I'm not feeling so bad, thanks for asking, a bit acidy but that is becoming normal! Had a very hormonal moment last night when OH announced that some freinds had announced they were expecting on Fbook - was so shocked and a teensy bit jealous that they're through the stressy time that got all upset... especially when he said he'd told them we were expecting too!

Have now come to my senses and am reacting like a normal friendly human again, but felt like such a cow last night. Didn't help that their dates are very similar to what would have been my due date previously. And that we really didn't expect them to be on the babymaking radar.

Still. Didn't like being an evil bear Shock

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 16:56

strikethrough fail

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 16:55

Not polite at all, bear. I will retaliate with more dtd if u can persuade OH

How are you feeling?

BraveLilBear · 05/12/2012 16:29

Loving all the name changes and a BFP for posy! Congrats Xmas Grin

Also smirking at Peanut's animal wrangling. If they look pissed off in the photos, you could add amusing thought bubbles like one of those internet memes...

Enjoy the prosecco Pink and woop woop for a 3+ BLol

Fx AF stops being witchy and mean to you Blundercats. It's just not polite, is it.

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 14:45

I'm laughing at peanut wrangling a crazy dog and two pissed off cars in front of a photographer. Hope they got some good pics?

Hunger does sound good but being really disappointed just before Christnas doesn't. Have got fingers and toes crossed for you.

Have a great time, pink!

posyplum · 05/12/2012 13:12

Enjoy your weekend Pink !

posyplum · 05/12/2012 13:10

Am laughing at Fred-dwellers Peanut !

Being hungry in the night (enough to get up and make toast) was my first clue this month.... just saying Xmas Grin Fx!

IBelieveInPink · 05/12/2012 12:42

Right ladies, I'm off for a long weekend :) I would like to see all those waiting for something (be it BFP or af) getting that by the time I am back! I am off to drink shed loads of Prosecco before jumping back on the dtd waggon Xmas Grin. Looking forward to catching up on progress when I back!

BombasticPeanut · 05/12/2012 09:33

blundercats, janie, hope af stops being such a tease soon x

bakingtins love it, can sense your bfp on the way Grin

posy congratulations! Chuffed for you, gives me hope that even us longterm Fred-dwellers can can knocked up eventually!

I couldn't sleep last night, I kept having to wee and then was so hungry my tummy was grumbling. Could it be...? I'm going to be SO disappointed if everything is imagination and false alarms Confused

Off to take an insane springer and two very pissed-off cats to have their photos taken for dh's Christmas pressie now...should be fun! At least it'll take my mind off symptom spotting for a bit!

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 09:08

I don't think so, it seems to have been a bit of a false start as it were. All the normal symptoms, but now they've all gone. Maybe it's the same as pink experienced and it'll come back again. Confusing times!

BelissimaLol · 05/12/2012 08:53

What do you mean blunder? Is it not af???

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 08:38

I think I may have spoken too soon re af. Oh well.

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 08:28

Xmas Grin lol x

BelissimaLol · 05/12/2012 08:24

Morning.
Posy I'll be 6 weeks on sun.
Did my cb digi just now and got 3+. So happy!

blundercatsHO · 05/12/2012 08:22

posy congratulations! Xmas Grin. Totally understand you not letting yourself get too excited but it's lovely positive news for now, especially after all those months. I agree with you about jobs for pregnant people, life doesn't totally stop once you have children right?

janie, good idea about holland and Barrett. Are they good at giving advice there as well?

tins, nice B! Let's hope it does work!
