Join us. It's a boat. Full of okp's and symptom spotting and insanity! But also much love and support! We were supposed to start next month, we already have a few bfp's! Our dps don't know what's hit them!

I know exactly how you feel pink . Ovia has thrown me a curve ball and decided that "after recently added datat" it's changed my fertile window from being 7.5 today to 9.5 (with 10 being YESTERDAY! When I didn't dtd!) . Which has thrown me completely! I don't know what data I've added to make it change! My okp's from yesterday were negative. So was my one from this morning! I'll have to do another in a little while but now I'm absolutely convinced I've missed my window!

Hugs Starky and Snow Flowers I know how you feel.

My confusion about when I ovulated and therefore when I can test is getting to me. If it is fertile week, then we aren't doing too well as OH has bailed on DTD for the last two nights and I'm angry at him even though I know the increase in sex is making him tired and I'm trying to be all relaxed about TTC. Inside I am not relaxed at all!

And I'm still having period like cramps and feel really wet (sorry, tmi), but not EWCM wet.

I wish we could look into our bodies and know exactly what was happening.

Thanks stark! Smile x

kat Flowers, I hate that sinking feeling with af. My DH knows about blastocyst stage, and that it's not really important to worry till the becomes along. If he tried to lay down the law I'd tell him to shove it. Yes we are both parents, but I'm the one going through pregnancy. My body,my choice.

I'm deaf on 23rd, so that's Wednesday. I've ended up testing daily as I hot caught up with everyone else Grin. BFN today at 9dpo, but it seems that 11dpo is the magic number on this thread.

Sorry kat I sound really harsh, I do apologise. I just can't be doing with stuff like that, I get irrationally angry about it. I'm projecting because of my experience with a controlling man, and I know that, just the word "forbid" makes my stomach go tight and weird! I'm sure your Dh is lovely, I just worry. Flowers

(((Hugs)))) snow and starky TTC is such a mind fuck. There are days I wonder why we chart, take pills, cajole partners just to sit and cry when af gets us. Then I see a new mum, or someone in labour (work at a hospital) and become all determined again.

Thanks kat Flowers

I'd honestly piss myself laughing if Dh tried to forbid me to do anything! I had a horrific ex who was incredibly controlling and ever since then, I won't stand for being 'allowed' or 'forbade' with stuff.

If you want a glass bottle of wine, you go for it girl and enjoy it! And if he tries forbidding you, tell him to go suck a buffet of dicks! It's your body! Wine

Even if you were pregnant, it's too early for the blastocyst, you wouldn't be passing anything along to it anyway!

Hugs starky and snow
You aren't out just yet!
I'm definitely out this month. Plan on having a glass of wine tonight anyway (although DH forbids me to drink At all for the whole TTC time ... So pretty much requests I don't drink alcohol for the next ??? How many years!?) pfft. Anyway... It was always all about January anyway... Some have just got a sneaky head start on us!!

Thanks snow Cake I'm just feeling ridiculously impatient, and with Dh being out at work or asleep recovering from work so much this week I'm already trying to mentally prepare myself for it being a bust! [santa] my dsis is here tonight so we're going to watch Christmas films and be festive!

Just jumped on to have a look - massive congrats Runner and Shelb!!!! So exciting! I backtracked through and found the link to the grads thread, so I'll find you over on there!

This is a good thread to be on ladies! Grin Fx for you all!

Snowdog37 · 18/12/2015 12:21

Hugs Starky. I've had a cry already today because I feel really ill and I'm afraid this cycle is a bust. Hope a brew and some biscuits if you have any, helps you feel better. 💐☕️🍰🍪

StarkyTheDirewolf · 18/12/2015 12:20

I shall find some humour, have a pop tart, and then go poke my Dh in the gooch not really till he wakes up and gives me a cuddle, and then has sex with me to cheer me up! 😆

Im having an emotional 5 minutes thinking I've totally missed my window this month in still in it, according to ovia and my cm isnt correct and I'm feeling all weepy! Waaaaaaaail! It'll be out of my system in half an hour or so and ill be feeling perky again....I probably just need a brew!

Snowdog37 · 18/12/2015 12:17

I have Ovia too. I prefer Ovia but like having both as then I feel like between them I'll get a more accurate idea of my cycle iyswim? On Kindara you can look at other peoples charts. I have wasted a lot of time doing that lol.

KatOnATinRo0f · 18/12/2015 12:15

Ooh that looks good- I have ovia but no idea if it's the best

Snowdog37 · 18/12/2015 12:10

It's an app on iPhone where you can track your periods, and all your temperature and ovulation and bd info. It's pretty handy just to get an idea of your cycle. It puts all the info into a chart. I'll see if I can put a pic of mine in here.

KatOnATinRo0f · 18/12/2015 12:07

Snowdog what's kindara ??

Snowdog37 · 18/12/2015 11:14

I hope so!!! My chart on Kindara looks good. My temps have gone up since ovulation. I just feel like crap. My dh said I was really hot all night, tossing and turning. I don't think it's the progesterone cream as I'm definitely getting ill. I've been around people with strep throat so I really really hope I'm not getting that.

bunch I keep getting 'the fear' and I'm not even pregnant!

Pinklily1 · 18/12/2015 11:11

Snow don't panic!! As long as you've felt OK to DTD I'm sure the sperm can still do their thing even if you are poorly!

Snowdog37 · 18/12/2015 11:05

Yay!!!!! Congrats Shel 💐🎉🎉🎉

I'm 3dpo and I've got a wicked bad headache and high temp, my throat is sore too. So I'm getting the awful cold that's doing the rounds here. It'll probably mess this whole cycle up and it won't work if I'm ill. Bah humbug. Xmas Sad

Pinklily1 · 18/12/2015 11:04

Kat I use the POAS type. Only because I'm not sure what I would collect my wee in!!

Runner05 · 18/12/2015 10:59

Drink yup, farts and burps everywhere! And if I don't eat the moment I feel hungry I start feeling sick.

Kat how many days until you test? I shouldn't worry about a little bit of brown blood. It'll either turn into AF or it will be implantation etc.
