Prty's Gang and The Festival of Foof Fun (when they not being cray cray!)

Sounds like a sensible plan Prty ! X

Thanks Prty , was a relief to know that the Dr didn't think I was stupid ! I mentioned to her about not getting any positive OPK results and she said they don't recommend them as they aren't v reliable, I suppose it depends on many factors and didn't drs but as I know your in the same boat with OPKs I thought I would share xx

sorry to hear about BFN neetie , sending hugs :( xx ....so confession time - I went to the drs today , didn't say anything before as thought they might laugh me out of the door with a "come back when your serious"! I've been worried about not ovulating & more so because about 7 yrs ago I was going to donate my eggs to a friend but when I went through the tests they advised me not to as I had the egg count / reserve ( whatever that pots called!) of someone in their 30's( mid 20'sat the time) So anyways back to present day, Dr was so kind and reassuring , has told me the steps we will take , blood tests first , although due to my slightly erratic cycles it may take a few and then will see from there. Sorry for long post but felt like now was the time to share as kind of been a bit if i don't say it it's not real ! Fx for all those coming up to POAS day ! X

Thanks Annie :-) although I'm not convinced AF is going to stay away. :-/ will keep you posted xx

Fingers crossed for you pinky my cycle buddy! Xx

mmm so went to the loo and there was brown discharge on pad def not blood but discharge...don't you just love our bodies

I wouldn't normally get worried about it but I have never felt sick at all in the many times I thought it might be BFP , boobs have been on/off tingey/achey and veins still in boobs and thighs..

Neetie i'm totally with you! I felt sick as a dog last af, was convinced I must have conceived but then she arrived so I put it down to me hoping and wanting too much!

Still mega crampy here but no af, was due Saturday and that was with Ovia app making my cycles 30 as opposed to my usual clockwork 28. Very bizarre. Going to test tomorrow.....

Life That all sounds pretty flipping excellent to me! Crossing everything for you! Aaaaaaaagh!

You're right katy, we only ever seem to have that mega a row about something silly. I got an apology text this morning from him at work! Secretly I know it was me being a loonie. Am apologising by way of carbonara this evening.

Hmmm, what a strange one then neetie - thought if it was early it could be IB. Well at least you know you're at the start of a brand new cycle and can get on with the simple bit (?) soon, providing you're not still feeling queasy of course. Lots of love xx

My best mate's newborn fell asleep on me today, already decided it's either going to have charmed or cursed my ovaries depending on what happens next week - no pressure little guy!

Annie no was pretty much on schedule but just odd it never just stops and I have never felt sick during a period before.

Bex enjoy your week away I used to work at Epcot in Florida 2003/2004 ..fab year :)

Lots going on over here as always!

Pom fx that it could have been an implantation bleed, all signs could be good. You never know!

Lou fx for you too!

Annie sometimes the most daft things cause the biggest arguments - has OH calmed down yet?

Prty vivid dreams can be awful! OH had one the other day and he woke up absolutely convinced I was pregnant as he'd dreamt I was....I wasn't!

Thinking about jobs, I think I'd also have to tell work early. I just think if you have a rough first trimester it can look a bit odd to colleagues. I wouldn't be spreading the word to everyone but would probably tell management. Plus with my stupid endometriosis the journey could not be smooth and I think I'd potentially need a support network at home. But apart from telling parents I would only be sharing on a need to know basis.

OH wants to come up with some elaborate way to spread the word after 12 weeks, I dread to think what he comes up with. I'm not a fan of whacking a scan pic on FB with a "we're having a baby" tag line so I would want to do something interesting and fun!

Hello again! Long time no type! Hi to all the newbies! It's been ages since my last post..I went on my jollies..camping! Carried on TTC! Hehe
Here are my stats: age #25, TTC #1 cycle #5 DBAFD -2!!

At the weekend I had some brown discharge, thought AF was on her way but then nothing... Daren't do a PG test as I fear another BFN! So I'm just holding out.. Possible symptoms.. Really tired, peeing a lot and not being able to hold it!... And so much acne :-( I'm always hungry so that really isn't a sign for me. Boobs are normal..

Glad I was able to find you guys again on this brand spanking new thread :-) who'da thought it ay prty :-)

Prty - I'm so with you, I'll need to tell work so want my parents to know before them, plus if anything was to go wrong the second person I'd go to for help is my mum, hmph my oh will just have to get use to it. I love the way I'm stressing over this yet not even pregnant yet.

Haha re superboob, that's got to be in the next thread title along with foof!

When can I do a pregnancy test? My period is due in 4 or 5 days..

Oh neetie, what a bugger! Sorry about that. Was this AF earlier than you expected? xx

Umm well so I caved and POAS after holding out for a bit, and of course BFN but hey had to check.

Morning...all very weird here....still feeling sick in morning, headaches, backache etc oh and bleeding has stopped...not slowed down just stopped so that's three days of not particularly heavy bleeding...mmm

HEY YOU GUYYYYYYYYYS!

Catches breath

Can't believe it's been 48 hours since I was last here. New thread, new foofs, pinata-foofs?!, superboobs! Malteasers - gaddammit, why do I always miss out on the chocolate! Stuffs 10 mini muffin wrappers into empty wine glass and curses at Bank Holiday Tesco hours

I actually had to socialise in real life, and saunter round IKEA, and get some fresh air, whilst I raced my OH around played with my DS on the GoKart track at Farmer Palmers.

Ah, but now I can relax and slouch on the sofa, late at night, with a nice warm laptop, and hide from the real world...forgetting about all those bumps I saw over the past two days picks at leftover chocolate chips from wrappers

Oh hai newbies!!

Lou13e it's more likely to have been a period. Though I haven't tested - tests are so sodding expensive here - the cheapest i can find are 6 dollars each (2.5 quid). Shall keep up the shagathon for a bit and test if no period in 2 weeks - though on current form AF's more likely to arrive next week.

This is all a bit different from before I went on the pill in 2002, and the one time I came off it for a few months in the last decade, when I had a clockwork-like 28-day cycle of complete hell 3 weeks out of 4 - about which I somewhat embarrassingly posted in chat not long ago, in dread of what it was all going to be like now I'd come off the pill. But if actually i'm going to have a sub-20-day cycle, feel normal most of the time, and have 3-day fairly light periods, not much pain, and lots of shagging, then I can totally put up with periods. If only it had been like this 20-25 years ago!

Lou you're only doing what we've all done!

LOL Annie I have a superboob too - my left. It's bigger than the runty one (the right) so it hurts more. Mind you, it also gets more attention...

bex well jealous of your week away! Heavenly.

pom that sounds irritatingly confusing. Annoyingly the best advice I can think of is wait and see what happens- I know that's the worst bit of this whole business!

Giant row with OH this eve about where we should keep tools and old paint. Totally reasonable (?) I started laughing halfway through and then got mad again. I must be such a dream to live with.

Always get sore boobs before AF, but anyone ever had one boob way more sore than the other? The left one kills. Am I developing a superboob?

Hehe thanks girls, I'm only messing around, I'm reined back in now, I'm so glad I've got an out let here. Turns out I may be a bit hormonal, just had a right row with oh... He doesn't want to tell anyone until 3 months, I'd normally kind of agree with this but I have to tell work pretty much immediately and go on restricted duties therefore everyone will know... So I'd want to tell my parents first.. But no!

Ugh. Right im taking my post night shift and hormonal self to bed. Night night

Lou I had decided the same thing earlier this month - hungry all the time, sore boobs, creamy CM, vivid dreams... You name it I had it.
I really hope in your case you're right, but we got your back if you're not xx
