Thanks sazzle! Hope you get your Bfp soon! X

sazzlehopes · 25/10/2013 07:45

Lets hope ELR and MissV have some good news, and maybe M33R and Newbie next week? FX.

sazzlehopes · 25/10/2013 07:44

Thanks to jaykay for popping in and bringing cake. Always a welcome sight! Enjoying onelifes bfn party bags too.

So sorry to hev19, halfpint and fluffy. Enjoy your friday night ladies, have some Wine to cheer yourselves up!

Because I'm clearly unhinged and really won't believe til the fat aunt sings, I've now managed to convince myself that the most accurate of tests is definitely wrong. 10 dpo is obviously FAR too early to test....and I MUST have got all my dates wrong. Seriously after 11 months you'd think I'd learn!!

Newbie784 · 25/10/2013 07:41

Morning, sorry to those af got!

I'm only 7dpo today but wanted to join the party to cheer the testers on!

Anyone else testing today? X

HisLommel · 25/10/2013 07:38

Good luck to everyone hoping for a BFP today.

Hugs, Wineand Thanks for those with BFNs. Come and join us on the November bus when you're ready Smile

Coffee cake! Yum! Thanks jaykay!

hev19 · 25/10/2013 07:31

fluffythelabcat · 25/10/2013 07:15

BFN here stoopid pregnancy test must be broken. Spotting started as well just to confirm it! Off to the November bus good luck everyone else. Sorry sazzle x

jaykay987 · 25/10/2013 07:10

Nice outfit one life!

So...Ive gate crashed - not sure I was on the list? But I brought schloer, homemade coffee cake (with coffee icing.) and a bag of those cheap onion ring crisps that are illuminous orange (I love them!) so hopefully that'll get me in the door?!

Who's next to test?

Sorry to those that AF got.

A year ago writer? Wow what a year! You have been busy. It's taken me just over three years to get from engaged to married to pregnant! You achieved it in what - 8 months??! Grin happy birthday celebrations!

onelifeonechance · 25/10/2013 06:56

Sashays into the party in her LBD&red sparkly shoes shimmying to bit of Dancing Queen.

Hands Sazzle one of Life's party bags full of goodies&a v large glass of fizz, gives her a big hug&a slice of Cake

Wonders where ELR is and goes to check bathroom.....whilst on way will give Mama's door a knock to tell her her guests are here Smile

sazzlehopes · 25/10/2013 06:46

Ok clear as day BFN for me using a FRER. I don't hold out much hope I'm pregnant this month-I'm due AF on Monday so in guessing the FRER should have picked it up. So gutted. But it's taught me not to symptom spot next month, there really is no point for me!
Goo luck to the others, hoping for good news soon!

m33r · 25/10/2013 06:17

Good luck poas-ers!

Batmam · 25/10/2013 06:02

Good luck POASers, let's get the BFPs rolling in! ??

wispaxmas · 24/10/2013 23:45

That's rubbish, life!

ELR, looking good. Are you using another IC tomorrow? I'd crack open an FRER, the ICs are crap and gave me shadows and not lines, even when the FR was positive!

I've got my FX for everyone POAS tomorrow! Grin

lifehasafunnywayofhelpinguout · 24/10/2013 20:59

Well I'm out this month. A.F arrived earlier on. I thought my cycle could have been up the wall after what happened last month but I have read up a lot on C.P's and I read that your cycle can go straight back to normal.
Although disapointed I don't feel too bad as I had feeling I would not be pregnant this month. I don't know why something just told me. When I told D.P he was very disapointed, but I told him it can take months and it is only our first month of trying. (well according to him it is) but that's all in the past now.

He's still staying over tommorow.
I would like to suggest that we also give the B.F.N's a goody bag as well, so to all the B.F.N's including myself. Enjoy your virtual goody bag made up of.... Nail polish any colour, A nail file. big bar of chocolate, bubble bath fragrance of your choice and a bottle of wine. xx

ELR · 24/10/2013 20:49

Thanks writer and sazzle trouble is everyone of those signs could be explained one way or another just the fact that I don't usually get so many at one time!
sazzle not sure when I ov but last dud the deed on cd14 I think I may of ov on either cd15/16 so possible 13/14 dpo

Writerwannabe83 · 24/10/2013 20:38

Wow ELR - that's a very positive and comprehensive list!! I have had a stuffy/blocked nose now for about 4 months....it is driving me mad. The best of luck with testing tomorrow!!!

As for my meal, I don't know where we are going yet. Husband is sorting it all out so it will be a nice surprise for me Grin

sazzlehopes · 24/10/2013 20:14

Elr - well it is a good sign that af is late. how many dpo do you think you are? I'd definitely use a better brand - I thin those ic are hit and miss...pull out the big guns for tomorrow! You might as well. I'm doing a FRER as I'll only be 10 dpo and will need all the help I can get!
I too have had a weird stuffy nose from today 9dpo...I think it's supposed to be a preggo sign....but then isn't EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!
See you bright and early tomorrow morning! Good luck!

ELR · 24/10/2013 20:01

Sorry I mean no pre af spotting on Tuesday not thurs

ELR · 24/10/2013 19:57

Evening ladies, so tired think I will have an early night so I'm up bright and early for the party!
So Poas at 10.30 this morning and bfn! Still no sign of af and am feeling so weird.
These are my symptoms:
boobs def bigger and tender
Feeling queasy for last few days from waking until about midday
Blocked and stuffy nose for last 3 days
Weeing like a race horse!
Feeling crampy
Had a nap every afternoon since last Thursday
Slight bleed on Sunday night but nothing since possible implantation?
Officially af one day late
No pre af spotting so far which I should of started thurs
Feeling constipated but not actually constipated
But so far have only had bfn on ic's, if the bleed on Sunday was implantation how long would the hcg levels take to show on a test.

Anyway will test in the morning but instead of the ic I might use a different test I have some own brand Sainsburys so may go with one of those.

mama31 · 24/10/2013 19:57

Thanks onelife :) I know it's nice to get some reassurance! :)

Writer defo get a new frock! Lovely that you are pregnant on your Birthday :) and yes pure nosey....where you heading for your meal?

Really hoping you ladies get a BFP party bag tomorrow I have made them up for all of you with the hope it's going to be a great result! :)

sazzlehopes · 24/10/2013 19:47

Fluffy - it MUST be a sign!

Half pint - you are so organised, but I like it - might go and do the same. I'm having waves of confidence that this is my month, then massive doubting and feel silly for being positive. Should these really be called buses and not rollercoasters we are on?!

Writer - best typo ever!

onelifeonechance · 24/10/2013 19:39

Mama! Forgot to say what great news it is about your chat with gp, read it&thought how good it is that you feel more reassured by what she said, but then got distracted with face masks, lol!

onelifeonechance · 24/10/2013 19:36

Brilliant typo alert Grin

How lovely of your hubster to bring flowers Thanks and yes you def deserve to treat yourself to a new frock for your bday meal tmrw, what kind of restaurant are you going to? Happy bday eve Smile
