Who wants to buddy up?!

for all the ladies feeling crap....hugs to you all...

my AF I'd due Friday and im trying to hold out to test but not sure how long.for lol.....

oh has pointed out that over the past few days I am constantly sitting with my hands on my stomach....which I had no idea I was doing so god knows if mother in law has picked up on same as been with her all weekend!!!

I completely agree with you Issie. I just want it to hurry up so I can start counting the days down until the dtd marathon lol

Brooke I'm not temping. It's only our first cycle of trying though, so if we don't get a BFP in the next few cycles, I might get a thermometer at that point.

AF isn't due to start until 22/23 for me so it's about 3 weeks until I'll be ov again. After AF it's so much easier to feel positive again because it's only a few days until you are in the dtd marathon and then tww. This is the worst time of the month for me so need loads of chat and good news to help me stay positive please ladies!!

Forgot to ask, do any of you girls temp? What do you have to do.and is it worth doing it if using clear blue ov sticks as they're pretty clear, no squinting to see a line.

Issie I think that's what it is, Af is taking her time and it feels like ages until we can ttc again, I've already been working out when I should start using ov sticks again...

AF is definitely coming as I had more spotting again earlier :(

Brooke are you sure you're not me?? I'm feeling exactly the same, AF not here yet either so feels like so long until next months' chance. OH doesn't understand why I'm so down and stressed about it. Hand holding with you hun

Looking, Valencia sounds amazing, hope work isn't too hideous tomorrow

Valencia was GORGE thank you fellow TTC'ers! In a foul mood now though at the thought of going back to work tomorrow, and without the distraction of being away I'm back obsessing that there's something wrong with either me or dh and that we can't fall pregnant!

Sorry to hear you think you're out Brooke. Agreed, you're not til your AF shows up properly!

brooke Sending positive thoughts, and for you! It's not over this cycle until the bitch arrives!

Ooh looking valencia, how beautiful :)

Im excited to hear everybody's news too, keeping everything crossed for you all.

I'm.still in a rubbish mood, Af hasnt started yet, but I have awful cramps, it's playing with my mind now! I also.had a horrible argument with hubby about it not happening for us next month either if it hasn't happened this month (stupid I know) as we havnt even started trying yet this month as I'm.counting myself out :(

sparkles I've had 2 children and it's like I haven't as I can't remember anything lol... x

issie339 fingers crossed may is the month for you

looking. ..hope you had a lovely time and Saturday should be good to test..fingers crossed x

Nope sat not too early, go for it looking!
Hope Valencia nice

Hi girls! Just caught up on the posts after being away in Valencia with DH in a few days. Trying not to symptom spot as I can only be 6 or 7 days dpo so as if I would have symptoms already! Sorry to everyone who's had their AFs, I'm dreading getting mine next weekend even though it's only cycle 1. I think exactly the same as pp, WHY doesn't it just happen if you're having enough sex around the right time of the month?! Going to order myself some clear blue opks though just to use next month to reassure me that I'm ovulating.

Question for those more in the know than me - af is due next Sunday, but I've got a wedding party next Sat and don't want to drink if there's a chance I could be pg. but don't want to not drink if I'm not! Would you poas on the Sat? It will be the day before af should be due (I've had a longer 31 day cycle before but it's usually bang on 28 days)? Sat will be cycle day 27, don't know if it's too early to poas...

How's everyone feeling today, any more symptoms? Excited for news of you ladies tesring this week.

TMI alert!!! I get light brown discharge in the 4-5 days before AF and no change today (day 2 of discharge) so as much as I'd love to believe it isn't, I'm still pretty sure this is AF on its way.

Yup, fingers crossed x

I haven't a clue which to use violet to be honest...I'm so scared to do one as I don't want to see a BFN
I will try stick it out as long as possible tho...maybe Thurs or Friday if AF not arrive before...

is it me and you sparkle to test this week?? x

Oops just rechecked stats and see its a week Monday - sorry!
Brain like sieve!

Hmmm Nicky could be good news, some folk do report implantation cramps.
I'm crap at tww can't really remember having anything to hang my hat on with any of the others though.
All consuming tiredness and sore boobs 1st thing followed by metallic taste, heightened sense of smell and then the vomit fest expected by 7 weeks to continue til approx 20 weeks. All following BFP never really before!
Now I've recalled all that - what am I doing?!?

If you manage to hold out til AF due you're a better woman than me. I may join you POAS on Friday if you do manage to wait til then though.

Violet Monday is so close how exciting!

Babies all tucked up, house tidied and locked up for the night and I'm in bed catching up with thread. Quite like nights when hubby on call. ( I have no life)

I know Nicky, I can't get away from them today!! What type of test are you going to use. I've got a clear blue one ordered (2 pack). When I test on Monday it should be two days before AF due. My app does say its due Monday but I'm working it out as 14 days from ov will be Wednesday (is that right??) So it should be 90-97% accurate on Monday and then more than 99% accurate on Thursday. So if your using the same and AF due Friday then maybe test on Wednesday?? Depends on how accurate you want it and how good your will power is lol!! Good luck x

I'm not sure violet....there not horrendous so I'm not thinking it's bad....

AF is due Friday so not sure when would be best to test...wetter to just wait or to do it early...

Aw I hate it when that happens..how is it when you want something so bad there is lots of that thing about...ie.pregnant ladies or babies
it's like you've a bright light over your head saying "show me the pregnant bellys/ new babies" grrrr xx

No not had any Nicky. Why do u think that's bad or good??? I'm the pub now (not drinking obviously) but someone's come in an sat at the table opposite an put a baby in a baby carrier down, such is my day!!I've decided to test nextMonday an if negative Thursday.

anyone else experienced slight cramping during tww???
I've had very mild cramping feeling on and off all day x

Aw feeling rather emotional at the thread today

sending big hugs to you all xx

You're right Sparkles, maybe the baby I'm meant to have just isn't ready this month.

Violet, I won't test now unless AF doesn't show up by 24th, but pretty sure I'll know before then. Did you manage to stop yourself pointing out all the babies and pregnant ladies on your walk to your OH? Mine doesn't like that kind of thing lols.

No BFPs on this thread yet so one of you ladies has got to get one this month!
