New Year, New Hope. Jan Bus (part3)

So why aren't you POAS??? lol

I've kind of abandoned this thread, works been crazy busy and really kept meaning to post!

AF due today...hasn't arrived. Really feel like it should be here, had my normal pre AF symptoms! Eeeekkkkk!!!!

littlebear88 - you aren't actually Littlebear86 are you with a new name???

Thanks everyone am looking into ic now! I'm thinking of it as I'm practising my POAS techniques until the real thing

DC1 cycle 2 25yo

littlebear88 - congratulations!! how weird is it that we have a Littlebear86 and a Littlebear88 on the same thread What are your statistics (What number child and what cycle) so I can add you on to the BFP list??

littlemisssunshine - I didn't get my BFP until the day my period was due. I don't know how many dpo I was as I wasn't tracking my ovulation. At a guess I was 14dpo. I only got my BFP because I peed on an OPK (not surprisingly I'd ran out of HPT) and had been told that a strong positive on an OPK near AF date can indicate pregnancy. I then ran to my local corner shop to buy three different brands of HPT and they all came back positive

I poas this morning which was one day after AF was due! No sickness, just sore boobs and peeing all the time! Excited/nervous!! Sprinkling some baby dust, DH and I dtd about 3 days before my OV day as he works away so must've OVd early or just got lucky with a swimmer who was hanging around!!!

LittleMiss, I got my internet cheapies (20) for less than a fiver. I also got 50 OPKs and a thermometer that's still in the box for around £8 (for everything) I think.

It does give you more incentive to wait if you're peeing on £3 each time though! I'm 3dpo and might last until Sunday! Then I shall be furtively POAS daily until I get the bfp or AF arrives! The internet cheapies have the added advantage of being super sensitive so you can almost justify testing from 7dpo!

I'm already imagining cramps feelings which are blatantly just wind but no boob pain yet, then I'll be totally convinced

When did you get your BFP writer how many days PO?? (Love the stats)

FWIW mattsmama - my first symptom was needing to pee all the time!!! It started at about 9dpo and it was my colleagues who first noticed it

Do what everyone else does and get yourself on Amazon and order loads of cheapy tests - I think they come in packs of 20 for about £6, possible less

I was testing twice a day sometimes 3 times a day from 7dpo, haha

I am driving myself barmy with my POAS obsession! (Amazon are doing FRER at £6.00 for 2 at the moment by the way and Tesco).

I continue to POAS knowing absolutely full we'll it is too early - absolutely bonkers . Plus only managed to DTD once when it mattered on the 13th - so chances are ridiculously slim as well! However I have had crampy AF pains since the 13th on and off plus sore boobies and for last couple of days I can't stop peeing so trying to remain optimistic but not too much?!! Gonna try my hardest to hold off until Sunday now ( ha ha!) unless AF puts in a very unwelcome appearance! Good luck ladies x

Haha this is very true and I am very much becoming an addict too but it's a costly habit to fund! I will put my question another way - how near AFs due have you lovely ladies found your special stick has shown a BFP rather than a BFN??

When do you lovely ladies recommend POAS??

That's a very dangerous question to ask misssunsihne as we will usually say NOW!!!! You could be 1dpo and we'd still be telling you to do it A large percentage of passengers are POAS addicts and if we aren't peeing on one ourselves we want someone else to be doing it so we can get our 'fix' through them

Congratulations littlebear! More good news to come home to!!

The bus is becoming more empty! When do you lovely ladies recommend POAS?? I keep doing them knowing it's too early and its going to cost me a fortune! Mr Google is giving me conflicting advise.

Yay for more bfp. Congratulations ladies. Feeling really sick again today so getting my hopes up god I'm stupid due on Sunday so if no sign of the witch by Tuesday night I shall poas on Wednesday morning. Why wait I hear you say. Last two months have been 25 day cycles but the previous 6 or more months were 27 days. Wednesday will be the 28th day of my cycle!!

So sorry to those that have been got by the witch.

Someone at work had trouble conceiving with an inverted cervix and said girl on top was good. No idea about where mine is or what position it's in but thought it was worth a shot!! So no real logic there I'm afraid

Congratulations Littlebear!
English my cycles varied- one month about 28days the next about 34ish. Maybe each ovary is different?!? I was hoping I'd ov'd earlier due to the DTDathon over Xmas and NYE!
I had a really painful stitch feeling near my left ovary cd28 so pounced DH! Only thing we've done differently this month is change the position. Tried with me on top and from behind/lying down as I was worried I had an inverted cervix!

Waah, BFN on a poundshop cheapie :( :( Due on Sunday, so i'm hoping I'm too early. Doubt it though, as we only dtd on the day before and the day of ov. I recounted what cycle I'm on, and, not including the two months we had off, this is cycle 7. So depressed!!!

I dunno, I'm going to try give it a day or 2 see how it progresses.. That's if I can make myself wait. I'm due on tomorrow. I'm terrified of a bfn

Could I have some opinions on this please?..
Woke this morning with light brown discharge & af cramps, put towel on as I thought af is gonna start.. Midday had light pink come away.. And now it's stopped.
Has anyone experienced ib? And typically when does it happen? I'm 13 dpo (or there about) surly it's too late for that?

I think I'm just clutching at straws

Queen I might give a cheapie a go Sunday. I'm also due Monday

Wow what a lucky month this is, Congratulations to all with thier BFP.
Well my af is due to appear monday so might try a little cheap test over the weekend, although not holding much hope as only managed to dtd a day before fertile window and day after always the way, didnt think it would be this hard fitting it in now we have 6 month old, so just have to keep fx , anyone eles goin to test saturday/sunday ?? xx
