Hi (big wave)
So you clicked on here cos you were looking for me (I'm flattered!) or the title seemed interesting!
I'm aware it doesn't really explain but we are bunch of lovely ladies all TTC and going ever so slightly crazy with it! For more info see our original thread here - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2412386-TTC-anxious-over-early-pregnancy-possible-symptoms?msgid=56357000#56357000

We are symptoms spotters extrodinaire - you name it we've had it, real and/or imagined Confused
We are here to help, we are all supportive, we laugh, rant, cry, joke, rage, smile, and comfort together. Be you a lurker or poster (established or new) then you are very welcome here. We only have a few rules:

  1. No judgement - we all lead different lives and have different standards and that is fine. You wanna get wasted everyday of TWW, that's fine. You wanna abstain completely, that's fine. We need support, not judgement.
  2. No feeling stupid - we've all had those months where we definitely think we are pg 110% convinced and then AF turns up, don't feel bad about it, it happens. Also we all have different levels of knowledge so no question is stupid apart from the one you don't ask.
  3. On this thread there is no such thing as TMI - we are all adults and we all know how miraculous and amazing... and downright disgusting our bodies can be, it's fine. Share what you want, we will not be fazed.

So that's it, jump in and FX'd for all my lovelies xx

It certainly is a strange one prty - I agree it would be stronger if af that late but then there are stories of late implantation etc. One good thing is that hcg doubles at a quick rate once it starts so in a couple of days you will know either way - I know that seems like forever but is a better thought than the wait 9 months one Grin

Other thing is kitten if we are not counting my most recent AF as an AF then AF would now be 12 days late... would expect a stronger result than the lines I'm getting at that stage...
Think the problem is that it's weak to be a BFP but it's also strong to be an evap. Who the hell knows?! I'm still going with evap for now

MrsKittenPie · 19/09/2015 08:31

I'll hold him down prty - you punch him Grin - honestly men are so bloody relaxed about stuff sometimes - it's what drives me mad about my dh. I honestly don't think it's an evap

PrtyPsn · 19/09/2015 08:25

Im sti thinking it's just evap...
Anyone wanna hold down Mr Prty while I punch him in his stupid head? He sees the line but he's so relaxed he just says 'lets just count it as a maybe, you're not drinking or anything so nothing changes, just give it a week or so' I glare at him and he grins and says 'I know a really reliable test, wait 9 months and if you pop a baby out then you were pregnant' any other time I'm sure I would have laughed... not today!!

LittleAindy · 19/09/2015 08:24

Yup. Definite line!

MrsKittenPie · 19/09/2015 08:22

How are you feeling? Are you tempted to get a cbd? Don't forget they're not as sensitive as frer - I'm tentatively very excited for you!!

MrsKittenPie · 19/09/2015 08:14

prty - it looks like a pink line to me!! xx

PrtyPsn · 19/09/2015 08:04

Bloody hell, no pressure then lol!!
Just took this one now... again it's not hugely clear here but I'm not sure if it's got a pink tinge or if I've been staring at it too long!!

Lol, yes I've been refreshing madly!! That looks like a line to me prty . Lol I know what you mean - I thought cbd was a lazy kind of test, now I totally get it! Take another pic then refresh, refresh

PrtyPsn · 19/09/2015 07:40

Take another pic I mean lol!
aindy I don't know what to do really... think I need to write them off as BFNs and get humping!!
I remember before I started TTC when CB digital came out, I was like 'why do you need it spelling out so specifically? What kind of idiot can't read a test?!' who's laughing now?!

Hahaha kitten were you refreshing the page minute by minute? :)
This is prob the best pic I've got... all I can say is that it's more obvious in reality life but still kinda colourless/grey... no squinting required in real life either, just couldn't get my phone to pick up the line, will maybe take another later in a different room

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 19/09/2015 07:16

Put a pic up prty!! I know you said you can't get a decent pic but put one on, we need to see it! I couldn't wait to check this morning if you'd done the test!!

LittleAindy · 19/09/2015 07:13

Well I am completely baffled! Do you reckon you'll do another test in the week if the spotting/sore boobs are still there?

Original poster
PrtyPsn · 19/09/2015 07:07

That's what I always thought aindy until Thursday lol
They are showing up within the allotted time but they are so faint and colourless that they must be evaps... got this mornings on my bookshelf gonna obsessively periodically check it throughout the day for any change... it doesn't help anything but I'm curious!
Boobs still mega sore and still spotting, felt really sick after eating last night but that could have been OHs cooking nerves/imagined!!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 19/09/2015 07:01

exhales with a furrowed brow

2 evaps?? But....but....a line's a line isn't it? Hmm

What's the status of the symptoms Prty?

Original poster
PrtyPsn · 19/09/2015 06:53

Morning my lovers!
You can all breathe now, Prty has checked in for the day!!
So First Response One Step taken this morning... just another evap. Can't get a decent pic of it, looks slightly stronger than Thursday's on the cheapie but FR are thin lines so it won't show up in a photo. Still grey/colourless line... never seen an evap when testing until this bloody week!!

Aww pinky! Embrace the bloat Grin

TTC bloat and PG bloats both suck though don't they. I remember when I was PG that I had the most unglamorous PG ever, my hair thinned out, I put weight on EVERYWHERE (except my bump ffs) and my face was full of spots. I was probably the most unattractive thing ever. I loved it when I finally had a proper bump though and Id happily take it all again now over the TTC obsession! But it doesn't get much easier after the BFP. That "am I fat or am I PG phase" is the worst. random rambling now

(waddles off with her current AF hippo bloat)

pinky17 · 18/09/2015 23:11

rolls off the edge of sofa in a food induced coma yeah yeah i'm still spying my lovelies! All the anticipation is killing me, am so desperate for you all to get your bfps! Lol! My spell check wants to turn bfps into baps! So i'll roll with that, I want you all to be getting sore tingly baps!

Big congrats Emz, well done!

If my husband evens offers to baste or in fact looks in my direction he'll get my wrath! I feel like a blown up balloon verging on hippo size! I feel bad ranting on this page, seriously need to move on but am hanging on until you're all there!

Good luck tomorrow Prty will be checking here for updates!

neetie1 · 18/09/2015 23:03

Well DH has just said I look very bloated and that my boobs do seem firmer .....

MrsKittenPie · 18/09/2015 20:14

Hi everyone
prty - I hope you'll wake up early tomorrow to do the test - we'll all be waiting to hear - fingers crossed Smile
Liking the phrase basting Grin
Hopefully getting some basting here tonight later although a negative opk here this morning (yes I am aware I am totally cray cray - yesterday was on about using my frer, which I didn't) and today I decided an opk might help my confused state (it didn't) - so I am on cd? Of ? Cycle - great Confused

neetie1 · 18/09/2015 19:57

From the inside always has.

LittleAindy · 18/09/2015 19:48

Prty this is going to be like the longest Christmas Eve EVER! So intrigued by it all...

Neetie does your belly feel warm from the inside or just feels warm to the touch? Tender boobs is good!!

I'm CD 28, so I guess AF could be any day now but by Weds would be my average cycle for Righty, and by next Saturday is Ovia's prediction...so it begins.

pushes Google far far away and finds suitable entertainment in the new SnapChat rainbow face. Never too old to be a clown

Unlikeky... was like AF just not as heavy and without pain, still needed to use tampons and pass throughout. Did have the weird possibly IB about 4 days before then spotting for a day or two afterwards

OP posts:
MummyBex1985 · 18/09/2015 19:17

Prty could your AF have been heavy spotting too?

neetie1 · 18/09/2015 18:04

Ooo and belly just feels weird..
