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

I didn't mean to suggest there that Americans aren't usually sensible, btw! Confused

I really meant that even though it's a US book, a lot of the information is still usefully applicable in a UK context.

Morning all! Bloody Monday again, eh?

Neetie I think it was you asking on the old thread about antenatal testing?

I'd recommend this book: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/1409152065/ref=mpssa111?qid=1444029546&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=expecting+better&dpPl=1&dpID=51gS9EEccGL&ref=plSrch (sorry I can't work out how to do nice links from the app!)

It's American, but quite sensible, and it has a whole chapter on weighing up the various pros and cons of various antenatal tests, and how to decide what to go for.

Morning.. Talks with mouth full of chocolate. Thanks prty

I downloaded the ovia app last night, although my cycles are totally all over the place I thought it may make me feel better recording everything down. It says I'm in my fertile days and OH is working on shifts so I won't see him.. (Kicks foot into sofa whilst walking past in annoyance!)

SharyBobbins · 05/10/2015 07:40

Morning!!

Are we moving over here from now or are we filling up the old thread first?

Hi poppy (hands over the obligatory chocolate for the wait) it's always a difficult time making sure we don't lose someone in transition!!
