Fab news wine massive congrats. You might have to change your username now haha!

Wineandchoccy · 11/08/2014 15:02

I think I am 12dpo but not 100% sure as I got ewcm then it went for a day or so then had loads again so could be 14dpo.

My cycles have been erratic since coming off the pill last June and even more so since my mmc in May so wasn't sure when to test.

Thank god I am working from home today because I can't concentrate on anything.

spinningirl10 · 11/08/2014 14:56

Oh and how many dpo are you?

spinningirl10 · 11/08/2014 14:55

Oops x post, I see your stats, well done on the dtd eod Grin

spinningirl10 · 11/08/2014 14:55

Welcome DinoGrin

Woohoooo Wine, that's fantastic!! Congratulations, wishing you a healthy and happy 9months.

Stats please.....did you do anything different?

Wineandchoccy · 11/08/2014 14:53

Thank you for the congratulations.

I don't know what made me test I just felt different this morning??

No sickness or anything just felt odd but I was desperate for the loo this morning so didn't get chance to POAS so did it later on and didn't believe the 1st test or the 2nd Grin

I'm absolutely terrified of anything going wrong and have eaten rubbish all month and drunk like a fish, whoops!

We have dtd every other day since cd 6 but I never got a positive opk so wasn't sure if I had ovulated or not. We used balance activ fertility lube and I took folic acid and vit d this month instead of the prenatal vitamins I have been taking.

KittyVonCatsington · 11/08/2014 14:44

OMG Wine You kept all that quiet Grin What a wonderful set of lines there...come on details, details, details!

I am so happy for you. They are extremely strong lines, sweetie, which is a great sign. It's looking better than last time isnt't it? You so deserve a happy and healthy 9 months Thanks

English I'd love to meet everyone too-although knowing my luck, I'd randomly meet you having a fanny wax or something Wink

JaneyTea · 11/08/2014 14:26

Yay! Congratulations wineandchoccy, Grin

Turtle21 · 11/08/2014 14:22

Congratulations Wine! Grin a huge happy& healthy nine moths to you :)! X

Wineandchoccy · 11/08/2014 14:05

See I got that excited I posted before I finished my message Grin

I will POAS in the morning to check but 3 tests can't be wrong but after last time I am bloody nervous.

Wineandchoccy · 11/08/2014 14:02

Bloody hell I have just POAS and I have a BFP!!!!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 11/08/2014 13:50

Good work Phryn! That's very efficient shagging!
Welcome Dino.Smile
Saire - 18dpo?! I'd never get that far! Good effort if you do manage it! Hope AF stays away for you!

It's so weird have this little internet friendship with people without any idea of what they look like. The intimate details we share with strangers. I genuinely would love to meet you all!

Siarie · 11/08/2014 13:28

Dino welcome to the bus, congrats on your recent marriage and I hope you had an amazing honeymoon. I'm sure you will get your BFP shortly xx

dinodiva · 11/08/2014 13:05

Hello! Please can I board the bus?

I'm 34, TTC #1, cycle 2, BFP due around 23 Aug.

I was kind of hoping that I'd be like my sister and get a 'hole in one', on cycle one but my body is obviously not as freakishly efficient as hers. AF was 3 days late last time though which completely messed with my head - but am assuming that the stresses of marriage and international travel (got married and went on honeymoon) in July buggered my system. It was still disappointing though. So, here I am. Smile

Sunshinesaz86 · 11/08/2014 12:35

Thanks for that stats phryn! I love reading them!!

Gutted for u spinning!
FX to everyone still to test!

I am now slightly concerned that AF arrived on CD20, 9DPO and I'm extremely heavy (sorry tmi) it may be my cycles just sorting themselves out, I've had normal withdrawal bleed then 30 day cycle then 20 day cycle! I'm really hoping it isn't something more serious as 9 luteal phase would not be good!! Do u think I should book in with a nurse, or am I overreacting for it bring far too soon?

spinningirl10 · 11/08/2014 12:20

Fx for you mustbeGrin

Cpt, haha I will be keeping a close eye on it!

Ahhh chandler, that's so lovely. It is funny how involved we become in each others lives. Years ago I belonged to a forum when I was expecting my ds. We all met up at the London baby show and a few of us have remained in touch ever since and are fb friends.

Massive congratulations to those with BFPs! What great news yesterday.

Sorry to everyone for whom AF arrived over the weekend, but let's hope for the next bus!!

I am well into the 2WW and dying of boredom here. I also think I might be going crazy with the symptom spotting. Friday my breasts felt very tingly.... I think this was the first sign I had when I was pregnant with my son. But then again, it's such a vague symptom that I'm now thinking that I might have imagined it - hence losing my mind!!!

Been testing on the ICs over the past few days but it's far too soon for a positive (only 10DPO today at best!) so am going to try and hold out until due date (Thursday I think). We'll see!

Am not looking forward to the disappointment but good to have had some hope for a short time at least.

Good luck everyone!!

Siarie · 11/08/2014 11:13

So I'm 5DPO and my resolution of not POAS until 18 DPO! is still standing. I'm just going to watch my temps and see if they stay above the cover line, no symptom spotting, no second guessing.

Seems like a great start to the month so far, lots of lovely BFP's.

Whether or not I'll make it to 18DPO I don't know :D

Cpt1sock · 11/08/2014 11:07

spinning I am still v.hopeful that this is your time. Tomorrow morn do not, I repeat do not take your eyes off that test! I will allow blinking. Grin
You may not have peeing round the clock as a symptom this time. Both my pregnancies were very different. I was convinced ds2 was a girl and midwives asked me if they had different dad's at every appointment due to extreme differences.

chandler your plan sounds v.inspiring. Hope you don't have to do hardcore workout too many times, sounds like very hard work.

phryn thanks for stats, you did have a busy month. It's definite lack of shagging that's our down fall even though it's simple biology.

WigglyBraddins · 11/08/2014 11:04

Thank you Kitty that makes me feel much better :)

KittyVonCatsington · 11/08/2014 11:00

We'll keep you company while you wait Wiggly !

KittyVonCatsington · 11/08/2014 10:58

You are very very sweet Chandlers although sure you're not still a bit tipsy from the beach party Wink Grin Love reading upduffed stats too-gives us all hope!

WigglyBraddins · 11/08/2014 10:57

Hello

Please may I get in the bus?

Been TTC since April. Am absolutely completely totally and utterly positive I'm pregnant now (tiny little bleed now stopped, light headed, grim taste in my mouth, coffee tastes rank...I have DS aged 2 so remember what it was like) but did a stupid thing. AF due on Wed, but have just bought a cheapy test kit and done it not with first wee of the day and got BFN.

Am going to buy expensive kit, wait til Wed and do it with super concentrated morning wee so fingers crossed for BFP then. Thank you for letting me vent my grrrrrrrrness :)
