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

themoo · 25/09/2015 20:45

Haha prty that's made me smile ! Soooo i was talking to OH while we were out for tea and decided to go get a HPT, pretty sure it will be a BFN but think if I test I can put it aside and enjoy my weekend away ! Anyone else still in ?

Damn, got my italics and bolds in a muddle lol

Thanks youandme

pours large wines for us both

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 25/09/2015 19:34

Oh sorry to hear that moo - that is rubbish.

themoo · 25/09/2015 19:30

Oh girlies Sad I think I'm out. Did a test this am with FMU which was negative, and now I've got mild cramps and have started spotting (albeit in a strange creamy cm kind of way). Feels very much like the onset of AF - bit early maybe at CD 24, 12dpo.
Rubbish Sad

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 25/09/2015 18:38

I'm fed up. This period is being weird - I use a mooncup, and it was appropriately full at lunchtime, but since then I've had hardly any bleeding. I'm really sick of these stoppy starty periods I seem to have suddenly been getting!

Stripes1983 · 25/09/2015 17:51

Thanks prty I think I might bow out of the GBPO tomorrow then sorry ladies but keeping everything crossed for those still in it ! I. do feel like I ovulated lasted again this month too which is making me think testing would be a waste of money and energy at the min! And you deserve the buttons prty !:)

(snatches up Caramel Buttons) sorry for the greed folks but it dawned on me that I'm possibly entering a 4 week wait... if it was chemical then when AF is due (in two weeks) then it's my fertile window so another TWW after that! Waahhh!!!
stripes I say go with your gut, I believe in signs and fate and stuff so if yue universe is making you think no then don't :)

Stripes1983 · 25/09/2015 17:18

Hey Ladies, so sorry to hear of AF arrivals (toses bag of giant caramel buttons onto choc heap) I was supposed to pick up a HPT on way home but then forgot in the supermarket , went to local chemist but card machine wasn't working so now I feel like maybe it's a sign that I shouldn't bother tomorrow ?!

Pirsy1 · 25/09/2015 16:38

Aindy, I'm sorry you're having a a bad time at home. I don't think men understand how emotionally draining TTC is for us and that we think about it constantly! I hope you're going to do something nice for yourself this weekend.

I'll be waiting for the results of the GBPO tomorrow! Fingers crossed for a BFP.

I think I'm mid luteal phase now. Feeling very tired and emotional. Don't think this is my month but you can't help getting your hopes up a little bit every cycle.

Hello all! (formerly ellamorella) Just checking in to show you all my new name! I decided to change it, as it wasn't the most subtle of names to use. So this is my new name. I've got shed loads of work to do today, so no time for a proper update. But just to say I'll be glued to my screen on Sat for TGBPO, and sorry Aindy and any others with AF or BFNs!

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 25/09/2015 11:04

I'll take your mansize Cadbury bar Aindy and raise you a giant hot chocolate and a kit kat, both actually just consumed by me from office canteen.

I hate being at work for the first day of AF - it's always the painful day.

LittleAindy · 25/09/2015 09:43

slides the remainder of the man sized Cadbury's over to youandme, shoves an entire muffin into gob, like a toddler let loose with Milky buttons

Thanks ladies, I'm getting desensitised to it now and no longer transform into an emotional nuclear bomb when she appears. ( starts salivating at 9.30am at the thought of cracking open a bottle this weekend )

I could practically hear OH's internal woop for joy after I told him the witch had arrived this morning, so I'm not holding out any hope for this cycle either, after our row on Sunday. I will stick around though as this thread is my daily dose of entertainment!

Good luck to the remaining GBPOers tomorrow!

MummyBex1985 · 25/09/2015 08:46

Sorry to hear about the two AFs ladies. Enjoy a glass of wine or two this weekend.

MrsKittenPie · 25/09/2015 08:24

Morning! Sorry I missed all the chatter yesterday - had a big work thing on, so logged on this morning and had loads to catch up on!
Sorry for af aindy and youandme - she's a bitch.
moo - you're still in lovely, fingers crossed.
sunny - sounds promising!!
prty - loving the mental image of the John Wayne walk!!
TGBPO sounds good - who's in for it again? I'll join you but not expecting anything as no idea what cycle day I am on still Confused. I should have a delivery of Internet cheapies today so can resume my obsession with poas!!!

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 25/09/2015 08:15

As expected, my spotting is now full on AF, so I'm out.

Who is left in for TGBPO now? Fingers crossed for you all!

SunnyScot89 · 25/09/2015 08:12

Hugs aindy throws freshly baked(still warm) banana muffins in your direction

Fx moo Try again tomorrow for the TGBPO.

I'm feeling pretty queezy this morning. Couldn't stand the milk in my cereal or drink my cup of tea Shock really not like me, hopefully a good sign but trying not to get my hopes up prior to TGBPO!

TTC isn't an exact science though, our bodies are weird and wonderful and can surprise us! You have to hope otherwise what's the point? Onwards to the next cycle, my love x

LittleAindy · 25/09/2015 07:33

graciously accepts new weapon and hunts down nearest man feasts like there's no tomorrow

Thanks Prty, woke up this morning (after a shitty night of no sleep, thanks to this cold) and I just 'knew'. Mostly because my boobs completely stopped being painful.

Don't know what I was expecting really, after missing my fertile window. TTC makes you crazy hopeful though, doesn't it?!

Oh no aindy :( not the Friday feeling you were looking for at all, my lovely (hands over a slab of Dairy Milk big enough to kill a grown man with one blow)
