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 anything 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

And our most recent thread here -

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2458534-Prtys-Gang-and-The-Festival-of-Foof-Fun-when-they-not-being-cray-cray?pg=1&order=

We are symptoms spotters extraordinaire - 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

Prty despite usually being a scrooge no one can resist twiglets and cheeslets! Let's be honest! Oh and matchmakers...... Orange...... all's well here thanks, me and DD have picked up the ever traditional nursery cold so very snuffly with limited meds to take! Already feeling mega fat so using it as more of an excuse to feast!

Woop woop tay you're my cycle buddy!!
AF due Friday for me, hoping to test Saturday but we are away Friday night so will have to see!
aindy I thought we had lost you! You are forgiven, DTD is a pretty good excuse for being absent! Good to know you and OH have got through it and are back on the same page :)

neetie1 · 05/10/2015 20:08

I'm just going into TWW solid smiley this morning , and a quick DTD so unless we manage another go tonight it's roll on half term (that's when af is due)

LittleAindy · 05/10/2015 20:05

(Ahem)

sheepishly drags in a week's worth of chocolate

Sorry I'm late, Miss Prty, been a little busy having make up sex with OH with life since I last posted! Still, no excuse not to check in on the gang! chucks Cadbury's Hereos like wedding confetti

How's everybody? I see we had a BFP and some newbies Grin big wave!

Still a week away from fertile game, so nothing to report here, apart from being bang smack in the middle of no man's land.

So, who's next in line for TGBPO??

tay13 · 05/10/2015 19:50

Hey everyone! Not been around for a while but loving the new thread name prty Smile
Not much to report here, DBAFD 3 and can't imagine I will get a BFP this month, but will be getting a new addition any time after the 16th... After 2 years of agony - my new knee is going to be cherished Smile
Hope everyone is good xxx

neetie1 · 05/10/2015 18:46

Have bought that book youandme for my kindle it has very good reviews so thought I would give it a go.

pinky17 · 05/10/2015 18:41

lurker alert still spying on you lovely lot! I come bearing gifts of Christmas savouries! This thread must had all the bfp's! Good luck ladies :-) xx

Stripes1983 · 05/10/2015 18:25

And rose fx you will get your BFP before Xmas so you don't turn into a TTC loon like me !

BittersweetRose · 05/10/2015 18:22

shary - yes, I'm almost 30 and TTC#1, cycle 1.

Stripes1983 · 05/10/2015 18:17

Yeh I read that too that those little swimmers are so quick they swim on in so any "leakage" doesn't mean you haven't had your fill so to speak !

PrtyPsn · 05/10/2015 18:09

shary some cycles it is just quantity and not quality :/ also even if it feels like everything has leaked out don't worry cos it hasn't, I know I read somewhere it doesn't matter what you lose, that's why legs in the air has no impact. Feel better soon x
stripes pahahaha new thread smell!! I'm smelling some BFPS!!

SharyBobbins · 05/10/2015 17:36

Thanks Rose. Are you ttc no.1?

Stripes1983 · 05/10/2015 17:04

Afternoon all - ahh it's got that new thread smell ! Fx for all those DTD and on TWW ! pirsy I'm in the same boat - stil no sign of AF! Been getting really mild AF twinges for over a week now, boobs feel like water balloons - swear they almost burst when OH came in for a drunken sqeeze on sat night! And cried at my boss today after asking if ok , I have got a lot on and didn't sleep well either ! Any ways that's my update !!

BittersweetRose · 05/10/2015 16:12

shary, I know it seems bad, but if your DH wants kids too I hope he'll understand? My DH is slowly figuring out that we need to go for quantity over quality just now to get him the baby that he wants (and wants more than me...).

Also, you lot must be rubbing off on me... I've had horrible indigestion/gas for days and I keep thinking 'What if it's not a dairy & pepper overload? What if I'm pg?' It's so unlikely though as I've no proof I've ovulated at all (BBT has held steady since before my coil came out).

I'm going to be completely bonkers by Xmas...

SharyBobbins · 05/10/2015 15:46

Ladies advice if you please!

Due to ovulate in the next few days, CBAFM high again this morning but the second line (you know the lines you're not supposed to inspect?!) increasingly visible. Will OPK after work but if yesterday is anything to go by it'll be getting darker too. Here's my issue. I'm full of a cold & feel like shit. I don't feel sexy in the slightest. Last night I used conceive plus & basically told hubby to hop on and make his deposit Confused He didn't seem to mind but is asking him to do that again tonight bad?! Sex with no kissing, one way foreplay just to steal his sperm! He knows the score & was happy to oblige yesterday, I just feel a little sorry for him! I know realistically we could miss a night but yesterday when we'd finished it was very....err...damp, like his sperm leaked out when he withdrew!

Sorry for the TMI by the way!!

neetie1 · 05/10/2015 10:35

Thanks youandme will check it out

Pirsy1 · 05/10/2015 10:07

Thanks YouandMe! I'm dreading it!

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 05/10/2015 09:55

Good luck with the colposcopy Pirsy!

Pirsy1 · 05/10/2015 09:16

Phew I've made it and I've bought a tin of Roses!

Prty I have got everything crossed for you, really hoping this is going to be your month.

Neetie - great news on the solid smiley - get DTD!

I'm not sure where I am. Waiting for AF. Just as well it hasn't come really as I have my colposcopy today. Now 31 days since my last AF so maybe I just ovulated later this month / not at all. This is the downside of not using ovulation sticks!

I went to a first birthday party yesterday. It was lovely!

Hey sunny of course you can hang out! Congrats on the BFP btw, you just reminded me that I forgot to say!
In Prty rated news, DBAFD 4, still getting EWCM :/ getting a cold/sore throat too but there's about 5 reasons that could be. Boobies not really feeling tender anymore, a few minor niggly pains
