Oh, sorry viper Af really is a bitch isn't she.

Viperama · 12/04/2014 12:07

FFS just started AF 12DPO

Bumblesprout · 12/04/2014 12:06

Thank you all for your lovely messages!
Good luck to everyone poas this week, there are going to be more bfps for this bus as it's so lucky!

MissMrsMummy · 12/04/2014 11:45

Kitty I've got reflexology coming up too! Last time I had a strong burning sensation behind my right ankle so I reckon I ov'd from my right ovary. What did your ankles feel like?

MissMrsMummy · 12/04/2014 11:44

Yay bumble! Congratulations x

xBlueberry88x · 12/04/2014 11:42

If AF turns up this month I think i might have a break down.

Ive got so many symptoms now ill be devastated

i must not poas early

Spotti · 12/04/2014 11:33

goodthings - I said i wouldn't POAS until a day after my longest cycle (stopped the pill early December, had a 28 day cycle followed by two 35 day cycles - I'm assuming the 35 day ones are going to be the norm since the 28 day was the first after stopping the pill...pretty sure I had longish cycles before going on the pill anyway), which would be next week BUT realistically I might cave and test before then :-/.

Actually, no, I'm going to wait until day 36 (1 day 'late') and test then because AF isn't going to show up this time cos I'm clearly upduffed Wink

Currently wearing big pants though...just in case... (I made sure that they were pretty and pink though, just cos I'm not giving in and wearing my 'comfy pants' if I don't have to!)

Goodthingscometothosewhowait · 12/04/2014 11:03

spotti when do u think you'll poas? Do u know what dpo you are? If AF is messing you around will you test tomorrow ie 1st possible late day or wait til next wk?
I was thinking if I still feel like this might poas Thursday before DH goes? These cramps do feel AF like I really hope she's not arriving early, that will annoy me!

gennibugs · 12/04/2014 11:00

Another bfp! many congratulations!!!!

cd13 here. got fixed smiley on Thurs so dtd Thurs, Fri and hoping to dtd again today for luck. I think the gaps have been too long on the actual days as we alternated morn and eve due to work shifts but you never know when it might catch I guess.

I had a long chat with DH last night and feel so much better. I didn't post yesterday as I felt so utterly miserable and despairing but the chat has really helped - we were both so honest and understand better now the pressures both were feeling over ttc.

I feel really positive today - we will all get out bfps it might take some time and longer than we planned but we will. And the joy when we do will be immense Smile

MademoiselleG · 12/04/2014 10:59

Ugh. Hate chores. Good luck Serenity.

DH is still here. He is addicted to this ridiculous game on his iPad and has just wasted about 45 minutes procrastinating whilst DD was left to her own devices -I assumed he was looking after her upstairs. Just gone up to discover she's been parked in front of Peppa (fine by me) while he's playing on the iPad: less fine. I find it SO anti-sexy! It actually makes me go off him... So they're still here and I'm still feeling dragony and also a lot less patient. GET OUT!
Anyone else has DP addicted to a time-eater activity? And I am not using 'addicted' lightly. He gets really annoyed when I mention it and doesn't find my jokes about his addiction funny at all. ARGH he drives me nuts sometimes!!

Serenitysutton · 12/04/2014 10:42

Sadly we moved house last weekend so have things which have to be done this weekend related to that. It's rubbish! Sorry you're feeling dragony too!

MademoiselleG · 12/04/2014 10:23

Oh serenity, sounds horrendous. Could you take a whole day to yourself and just retreat on your little cave until you feel more like yourself?
I'm pretty exhausted today after the longest, most stressful few weeks at work and just asked dh to take dd out for the day so I could have time to myself. The most important thing -what I'm proudest about-, is that I communicated this need to him as opposed to my usual dragon-like behaviour. (Nothing like a penis dragon, I can assure you. Literally like breathing fire!!)
MrsE: I hope you have a better day and good luck with catching up on work

MademoiselleG · 12/04/2014 10:16

Yay another BFP!!!! Hurrah! This is a lucky bus :) congrats Bumble!!

Still blank circles for me...aaaargh, come on body, be on our side and do your bit! On cd15 now. Is that normal?

Serenitysutton · 12/04/2014 10:04

Thank you! :)

KittyVonCatsington · 12/04/2014 09:54

It did Grin the euphoria of a BFP completely changed me! TTC would be so much easier without the man sometimes (notwithstanding sperm of course!)

StuntNun · 12/04/2014 09:49

CD17 here and 2dpo. Hating the 2ww at the moment as I know it's a slim chance (took years to conceive DS3) but I always get my hopes up. I got a BFP at 9dpo last time so I could test in a week's time.

Serenitysutton · 12/04/2014 09:48

Kitty out of interest did it go away? I'd love it to be a symptom of course, but if I felt like this for 9 months, I'll be honest, I'll probably end up giving birth in prison

KittyVonCatsington · 12/04/2014 09:44

Could it be a symptom, Serenity? I was particularly irritable the two days before I got my BFP. Either way, sorry you feel so rotten-treat yourself in the cafe to the most calorific treats they have

KittyVonCatsington · 12/04/2014 09:42

I'm CD12 today. Conveniently following the days of the month! Expecting a solid smiley around CD18. Getting ready to go to my Reflexology appointment-ouchy ankles here we come Grin

Serenitysutton · 12/04/2014 09:40

I have to confess this to someone- 11DPO and I am
So angry and irritated it's unbelievable. I have had to decamp to a coffee shop alone to calm down but I actually want my husband to disappear. Absolutely everyone is irritating me and I feel so angry inside I'm
Shaking. I started EPO for the 14 days before ovulation this month and I thought that was supposed to ease PMS!

Have also just got through a stressful
Period so maybe it's a delayed reaction to that. Either way I think AF is on her way as I have my usual
Week
Before symptoms- painful boobs, incredible hunger and irritability, although it is never usually anything like this. I'm actually shaking from anger, and I don't know why I'm so
Angry !

EnglishGirlAbroad · 12/04/2014 09:37

Congrats bumble!!GrinGrin

What cd are you on kitty? I'm cd 9 and still 'low' on my cbfm. But that's pretty normal for me.

Sounds promising blueberry!! Fx!

Still early Ginger - you're not out yet!! Fx for you too

Spotti · 12/04/2014 09:34

Yay bumble.

goodthings - I've been having the exact same symptoms as you! Hope it's a sign. Currently sat here having weird fanny twinges (apologies for being so blunt - can't think of a more polite way to put it!) which I'm seriously hoping isn't the evil witch...depending on how long my cycle is this time, she could be due today (day 28) or next Saturday (day 35), the latter of which would match the pattern set by my last few cycles. However, she's such an evil little so-and-so that she might just turn up at any point really hoping that that point isn't just yet. Got a doggy client to go and train this morning so could really do without being doubled up with AF pain!

Really want to go POAS to find out one way or the other but I now that if I get a BFN then I'll convince myself that it's too early/the test doesn't work/or whatever other excuse my silly brain makes up, or if AF turns up then I'll be extra sad if I've already tested. Trying really hard to resist...although now I need to pee...someone lock up the ICs!

Must flush wee. Must flush wee. Must flush wee

xBlueberry88x · 12/04/2014 09:25

Wow another BFP congratulations Bumble
