The big fat posifrickintivity, but only on a friday thread - TTC after MC and not lose your head

Congrats lucky!! A line is a line.

Lol saggy. Boo Garden, are you eat testing? I'm getting a bfp but line still no darker. May get me a digital today. They scare me and remind me of the MC'S so hadn't gone down that route yet. Good luck everyone else testing and all please stick around and hold my hands. Do any of the pregnant ladies have no symptems?

Better luck next time garden. How many dpo are you?

Good luck to everyone else testing this morning!!

Pah. Negafrickintive. Clearly in my delusional state I am erring towards false hope negative or a defective Internet cheapie...I will persevere until AF gets me in her clutches!

Good luck ladies!

Janie Whoop Whoop! Sounds like a posifrickintive to me! Yay!

Its after midnight now. Anyone who cant wait wont get hit with a fish!

Congrats, Janie! However, you should be fish slapped for testing early But feel free to join us all again tomorrow.

Re faint vs strong lines on the OPKs - I never get a line that's as strong or stronger than the control line, so I go with the faint one. Last time, I had a faint line appearing one evening, tested again next day around lunch time, when it was stronger, but still not as strong as the control one. Then tested again in the evening, no line at all. It's like that every time, blink and you miss it.
But in spite of the faintness, I'm glad that I did the OPK - my CBFM ate 20(!) sticks this month, but all I ever got was a 'high' reading. OK, so it was the first time I used it, but it better not do that again, I can't afford it.

Good luck to the fellow testers! Off to bed now...

Janie just laughed out loud at "the smeg thang"!
Fingers crossed for everyone tomorrow.

Hi Farmerwife - I have a Clearblue Fertility monitor, pretty ££ new but you can get them for about £45 on eBay and sell on afterwards. The sticks are also ££ though at about £20 per 20 (which will last 2 cycles). But it got me a BFP first time when we tried for DS and hoping 3rd time lucky this time. I am also a massive control freak and POAS addict so this keeps me saneish

CB digi's and cheapy opks's will give you the ov peak days and you can follow the SMEP plan and go for a sex festival.

Aly and pink thank you for all the encouragement - you are so right about statistics not meaning everything and knowing I can at least get pregnant - its a start!

AF came today - ever onward though!

Decided I might get ovulation test thingy - never done that - any recommendations?

I'm just going to pay I think, if I do have any more suspect pains I will go and ask GP or call epu but if not I will just book a private one I asked last time if I would get an early scan and was told not if there was no reason, I'm a bit dubious about a private one though as you don't really know who is scanning you and I'm terrified of having a scan generally due to the build up of expectation etc.

Shell - get tissues, quick!!! I needed half a box!

Hey bump- how are you doing? Good to hear pain gone :)
I can't remember if you have already said- have you already got a scan sorted? Or will it be a case of going and begging? In really worried that I won't get one (if I get that far)

I know pink you are right, it's so hard tho...can't wait to test again in the morning and (hopefully) see that strong line again. Hope you're ok

Im watching OBEM now, we must be stupid or crazy

Ooh janie I'm so excited! My DD was a feint line and she is very much real

I haven't poas again, am I strange?

saggy thanks for the tips, the left hand side pain has gone now but if it starts up again I will go and get checked out.

I'm burying my head in the sand a bit till I can have an 8 week scan - don't even want to tell my GP till after that, that's ok isn't it?

And santa you are the most hilarious officious control freak I've ever had the pleasure to be on a thread with :) and thunder you are a very close second

Shell- I can't do fish but here is a hand to hold. I keep swinging between 'omg check out all my symptoms' to 'where did they all go? It must be all over'
I have googled everything I can possibly think of.
I have googled statistics
I have googled specific symptoms.
I have also googled how early you can pay for a scan.

None of this is going to help. We just need to wait to do tests I'm afraid (have found said tests - DH is crap at hiding)

I hate the waiting though!

Also made the mistake of watching one born. That programme is the devils work!!!

Fx for everyone testing 2mor. How far along are you pregnant ladies? I have no symptoms which really concerns me. Where's that positivinfrigity at!

Eek thanks guys although I won't say the BFP word til tomorrow as I'm convinced I was seeing things in the faint line...still got my fingers crossed for tomorrow!

We kinda did the smeg thang...more a case of rape week with a day off after a few days, dtd everyday except one over that week leading up to ov. Hope it's worked!!!

Off you go and lure those men into bed. Just playing with their nethers seems to do the trick if they say they're sleepy (or pretending to be asleep like DH did a few nights) mwahahahaha we get our wicked way some how!

Congrats janie that's amazing news Good luck to you and lucky tomorrow

thunder I need a fish slap convinced myself its going wrong with no signs really at all aaagggghhhh I need some posifrickintivity

janie that's brilliant!!!! You go girl!!! ;)
saggy sounds like a typical bloke to me hahaaa....this is how it goes in our house "so errr we sexin tonight then or what?" "Really???do I have to? I'm knackered babe and Ive just had a shower" so I flash my boobs! His response; " duck...:you can't do sexy! Funny you can do" wicked!

I mentioned SMEP to DP. He didn't look impressed. He's an old man now you know! When I said this he said it wasn't that he couldnt, more a case of whether he wanted to! that's nice isn't it!

Congrats janie!

Loving the rules it's going to be two weeks on Friday til ill be allowed cos testing tomorrow at 2dpo is not a good idea

We seem to have been doing smep this time dh was well and truly not up (excuse the pun) for it yesterday but he battled on was hoping for tonight again but not sure he'll cope bless him!

Oh and I mentioned smep to dh and the look he gave me was NOT scared. I do believe there was a glint in his eye.
Bleeding from my second ERPC is much less than from the actual mc, so maybe not long now...

Oh janie wooo! Fx it sticks.

ickle I reckon you'll be fine. Try not to stress. If you're really worried then maybe don't dtd again for another day or so to see if bleeding stops again.
I think main reason they say not to have sex while still bleeding is because of infection risk from open cervix, but I think it closes up very quickly (think days, not weeks).

I'm getting very excited by all these bfps. Must be spring. Is there a goddess of spring I can pray to?

Loving the rules! Congrats on the bfp janie good look to everyone else who is poas tomorrow. Mentioned smep to oh and we're going to give it a go starting from wkend. Dtd here we come!

Aww Janie! Fab news! although completely against the system
Eek we are on a proper roll here aren't we! This must be a lucky group we have going, bodes well for the rest of our ladies who will surely not be far behind.

Either that or we have some sort of spring phenomenon going on, baby rabbits, baby chicks, baby lambs =more babys? Perhaps?
