Morning all. Not at work today with this horrible (what i presume is a) chest infection.
CD15 and still flashing smiley.

(hides at the back of the bus worrying what all the non-teachers have planned for us!)

Toots, those ones are different to the ics.

Allthequeens are your tests getting darker.

Maybe my mn name should be FannyWaxerAbroad?!! Grin

Sparrowlegs248 · 07/03/2014 08:27

Not a teacher - work for the local authority. Yawn...

English! Never would have thought you were a fanny waxer!! Lol!

Allthequeens - friend on mine tested v.early and just kept testing til she got her bfp. She had spotting shortly after and thought the worst. BUT she went on to have a normal pregnancy and has a lovely baby girl now. Just wanted to add a positive story.

Allthequeenshorses · 07/03/2014 08:06

Not a teacher either.....solicitor. Yesterday was particularly tricky sitting in court with all this wooshing around my head. Still light bleeding. Did another test this morning and still positive. I don't know whats going on.

Lemon, sorry to hear that and hope you are ok. Safe trip.

Thanks all for your support and fx for you.

lindamagoo · 07/03/2014 08:05

Lemon I'd keep my fingers crossed if I was you. Has there been anymore bleeding?

Wineandchoccy · 07/03/2014 08:02

I've tested this morning and BFN Sad no AF yet though so still on the bus. I don't want to go to the toilet today in case I see blood.

I'm 14dpo today, cd41.

I'm not a teacher either I'm a sales rep for a dental company.

EnglishGirlAbroad · 07/03/2014 07:59

Retro - ask away!
Kate - yes, unfortunately I do indeed also wax bums, but also legs and arms and eyebrows! Did work as a full blown beauty therapist in the uk, but waxing is all that was goin over here when I moved. Seems the Dutch have only just caught on to Brazilian waxing!

My BFP date is going to be different seen as I still haven't fecking ovulated! In a grump about it now!!

bellaboo88 · 07/03/2014 07:58

Been on my app, I normally get spotting 12dpo/13dpo....so that's today or tomorrow...my cycle is 32daysish so I'd prefer my lp to stay the same either way.

Had flushed fmu before I woke up as at 2am the duvet was viciously stolen :-( super king too, pffttt!!!

English wasn't expecting fanny waxer!

CagedMango · 07/03/2014 07:55

Lemon I'm sorry to hear it. Safe travels and I hope your trip is ok.

toots123 · 07/03/2014 07:54

Clear blue opks say fmu, surely that would also give a false reading?

Ive been looking on the bright side of not being pg. We have a trip to disney land booked in may and im realising I might be able to go on the rollercoasters which is exciting! Saying that, if I get a bfp this month I'll be about 12 weeks when we fly so that might be interesting but never mind! Haha

missmrsmummy · 07/03/2014 07:54

Ah, thanks choccy!

Choccywoccydodah · 07/03/2014 07:47

Concentrated as in you haven't got to wait 4 hours

Choccywoccydodah · 07/03/2014 07:46

Missmrs, you're not meant to use fmu with IC opks, it can give you a false reading. The best time to do them is between 10am and 7pm. I usually do mine at lunchtime, then again at dinner time.
It doesn't matter how concentrated your urine is.

missmrsmummy · 07/03/2014 07:33

Morning! Think I'm coming to the end of my fertile window but want to use Opks for a few days in case of late ov (like last month)

Question 1: do you have to use fmu for ic opks?
Question 2: do you have to wait 4 hours after urination to test with ics?

Thanks! Happy Friday Grin

lindamagoo · 07/03/2014 07:28

Morning SaRaRa, I'm ok, still cramping but I think I'm going to get af today. Pretty sure it must be with it being first month off the pill that it feels so bad Hmm I'm happy though as it means af is coming exactly when she's due so hopefully the pill hasn't messed up my cycle Smile

SaRaRaRaRa · 07/03/2014 07:20

Not a teacher Smile

Linda, how are you feeling today? Still crampy?

Choccy, hope your spotting holds off.

katecupoftea · 07/03/2014 07:11

You non-teachers aren't going to gang up on us or anything are you?

Snap scout. All I can do is temp and sit. At other 'waiting times' there is crotchwatch but this post-af pre-ov time is BORING! And don't want to fill it with frivolous dtd in case I get bored of it by the time ov comes!

lindamagoo · 07/03/2014 07:10

Spotti we are in the same position right now with the cramps! I don't usually get them til af starts but I've had them since Tue and still no af, also first month off the pill...

toots123 · 07/03/2014 07:07

Morning

im not a teacher either! :)

I think af is on the way out so going to go opk daft haha

ScoutFinchMockingbird · 07/03/2014 07:04

Hands up. Not a teacher.
Bored waiting for ov to happen. Seems a long time to see if there is a BFP at the end of the month.

Choccywoccydodah · 07/03/2014 06:55

Morning!

Hooya spotti! Like kitty said, just keep testing every couple of days. Hopefully you get an answer soon!

English fanny waxer, what a great way to put it ha ha!

Hands up here, I don't work (as such) we own property and let rooms. On the whole it's very nice as we get to spend time with ds and this new baby that I am obviously currently making inside of me and get on with our own stuff.

Well, I'm due spotting today, am hoping I don't get it due to the pesseries. Let's see shall we.......!!

OP posts:
KittyVonCatsington · 07/03/2014 06:21

hooya! Keep testing every two days until AF appears-good luck Grin

Spotti · 07/03/2014 05:34

hands half up< I was in training to become a teacher, but then took a break from my course (and not sure I'll be going back). Soooooo technically not a teacher either...guess I'll put my hands all the way up LOL.

I'm getting fed up with this waiting malarky. I think I've miscounted my days this month and can't decide if I'm due AF on the 8th (I.e. Tomorrow!) or on the 10th like I originally said. Based on my cramps I'm guessing maybe tomorrow, but then again I don't normally get cramps until I'm actually bleeding...unless it's a new post-pill period thing. Gah! I hate all of this not knowing! I caved and did an IC this morning - bfn. Tbh I wasn't really expecting any different and if I think about it, I was around a week 'late' last month, which, if that as actually my normal cycle, might mean I have longer cycles than I'm expecting and therefore today I am over a week early, hence the negative test. looks confused

Somebody give me a hooya and tell me to stop being so stupid!

kurama · 07/03/2014 01:07

hand up not a teacher! Grin
