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!

Glad to see you're feeling positive about it Runner. Try again tomorrow as you say there's still a few days to go.

Runner05 · 15/12/2015 06:00

So, just snuck out to do the quickest test ever... A resounding BFN. Looks like yesterday's tests had indent lines as suspected. I'm not surprised at all.

I might buy some different strips as these ones are really thin and looking closely they haven't been cut well which could be the cause of the indents.

Anyway, only 9 or 11 dpo so still a few days for it to turn positive Smile

Runner05 · 15/12/2015 05:45

Shelb I'm sure second morning wee will be fine.

I'm currently sat here with my legs crossed. OH doesn't want to know about me testing until I get a positive so I usually test before he wakes up... Today he's decided to wake up early.

Dammit I need a wee!!! Lol Confused

shelbTa · 15/12/2015 04:40

Fx bubba.

Insomnia. And just had to waste fmu as didn't want to wake oh up! Think second mu will be ok??

StarkyTheDirewolf · 14/12/2015 23:14

runner I'm positive I see something but I may have line eyes! All this squinting! I'm loving it save up your wee till the mornine and fx we will see two pino lines!

lana I feel your pain! Dh is a doorman so it's time of year is the busiest for him, so he's barely at home at the minute! Fx for your bfp!

bubba sounds positive though if you're having no af symptoms!

I'm super impatient for this weekend now! I just want to ovulate! I never thought I'd be so impatient! I'm usually quite good, but apparently ttc brings out the bonkers in me! I'm wishing my life away! And I've got loads to sort this week for Christmas and have got precisely bugger all done!

Fx for you Bubba hopefully we will both have some good news Xmas Grin x

Bubbapup89 · 14/12/2015 22:53

Wow, so many messages to catch up on already!

Hope everyone is well. I have no symptoms of AF arriving thankfully as due Wednesday but do have slightly tender boobs (never have that) so am taking it as a symptom. Am holding out to do another test until Wednesday / Thursday if AF doesn't show.

Fx for all the possible BFPs already!

LanadelLol · 14/12/2015 22:43

Oh and it doesn't help that my partner works away and is only home Friday evenings - Sunday evenings which will make me worry if I don't get a BFP this week as I can get a bit obsessed with planning!! X

LanadelLol · 14/12/2015 22:39

Evening Everyone!

It's so hard to keep up with all these posts but I hope everyone is doing well.
runner, shelb hoping to see some good news in the morning ☺️.

Totally confused about cycle dates as I am usually every 23-25 days. Last AF was 21/11/15. Started ttc 04/12/12 when I think I was ovulating by checking CM.
Spotted for 2 days, brownish Friday and Saturday there. Nothing since. Had really tender boobs which I don't usually get and the symptoms are also going away... Think I may have been having a phantom pregnancy iykwim but no AF yet.
Hopefully now that I have started Ovia things will make sense
I'll do a preg test when they arrive if AF doesn't first. X

Runner05 · 14/12/2015 22:15

Aww Shelb just keep testing. It's early days yet.

Mor exciting times. You'll have to let us know what happens at your apt.

Bunch thanks for the warning about the CM and bloat. Pregnancy sounds delightful Confused

Pink I haven't ruled out indent line or multiple tests having an indent line. I guess I'll know if the line gets darker.

You graduated will have to set up a graduate thread so that we can head to a pink fluffy safe haven when we get our BFPs Wink

So, decided to poas (pee on another stick Wink) and yes, the line is still there... Not sure what to make of it but shall keep peeing and see what happens.

Yey bunch and newmrs! Don't leave us! Glad you are both doing well. Interesting about AF pains, I'm lying in bed and they are really quite strong, above my pubic bone, feels what I imagine a bladder infection would feel like.

Ohhh stark all getting a bit exciting. Hope you get chance to collar OH.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 14/12/2015 22:07

Welcome back bunch

new don't leave us! We need the knowledge of the newly preggers to guide us! Grin

I did an okp couldn't wait and it's faint, but nothing serious yet, decided to go from early rather than wait on the off chance that my cycle is out of sync with ovia iykwim. So ill do another on Wednesday or Thursday to see if there's any change. (I'm mentally singing "getting to know you" from 'the king and i' sad but true!)

shelb have another crack at it tomorrow and then every 6 hours hence same goes for runner

Newmrs22 · 14/12/2015 22:01

Ps I'm still lurking here. Don't feel pregnant enough to graduate yet!

Newmrs22 · 14/12/2015 22:00

runner def test again tomorrow. I could see something.

shelb AF type pains have been my main symptom! They were the reason I didn't test for days before my BFP because I was sure I was about to come on. It was freaking me out but I've read it's quite normal. Still having them today.

BunchOfBobs · 14/12/2015 21:39

I'm back in the uk! And boy is it soggy!

Mor I'm now 5+3 ans the break away from being able to Poas has definatley curbed my need to do it. I've been considering an early scan but as I'm now due to head off to work on Wednesday in likely to be away until 9 weeks nearly so reckon I can hold out the extra 3. Are you tempted?

Hello to all the newbies. And for those in the tww feeling like extra cm is a sign of womb lining shedding etc, trust me there's loads more of it when upduffed!! The bloating sounds positive because I look about 4 months pregnant with mine!!

Runner I can def see and indent. Eyes will be peeled here tomorrow. Shelb you may just be too diluted or not strong enough levels to tell at this time today. Test again in the morning.

Morwenna1 · 14/12/2015 21:13

Evening all! Just checking in to see what's been happening!! Hello to all the newbies (I've missed quite a few, so big wave to you all).

Aw Shelb I thought I could see something Flowers

Runner - so is there an update on your line?! Do you think it's evap?

Got appt with doc for this wednesday, so feeling relieved the professionals are getting involved now! (if you know what I mean). Over on the antenatal boards everyone is talking about getting early (private) scans for peace of mind...never occurred to me ladies. Whole new world! (One which I'm rapidly discovering I know nothing about) Confused

I'm still testing on and off. I know that folks say don't add to your worry, if you're upduffed, you're upduffed - but I'm finding it's putting my mind at rest. Ran out, so I've ordered more!! Grin I'm 5 weeks tomorrow.

Pinklily1 · 14/12/2015 20:53

Flowers Shelb.

shelbTa · 14/12/2015 20:48

Ladies - did an IC, BFN, so assuming it was an evap line - we can all calm down now!

Will do it again tomorrow morning but going to put it down as a no.

Thanks for your support.

Snowdog37 · 14/12/2015 20:44

I bought 50 Wondfo ovulation sticks. They are great, cheap and seem to be showing an increase in LH as I also have other impending ovulation signs. I got 20 pregnancy tests too. Plenty to drive myself nuts with in about 10 days 😜

ElleSarcasmo · 14/12/2015 20:41

Thanks, looking on amazon now!

Pinklily1 · 14/12/2015 20:41

Starky, my OH said something similar! He also threatened to buy me a turkey baster for Christmas to use it he's too tired to DTD!

Runner, I was just wondering if it was likely to have the same indent. Update tomorrow!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 14/12/2015 20:30

Hos words were "if I'm asleep and you ovulate, just get on, I won't mind!" Grin

Yes do amazon okp's elle the clear blue are horribly expensive. I think most of us went for the bulk buy option! Grin I know I did!

runner I'm already waiting for you to test tomorrow! shelb I totally think you should do another..Grin

pink dtd every other night is a fair compromise Grin

Runner05 · 14/12/2015 20:28

I got my opk's for next month from Amazon. Something like £5 for 30. The ones I used this month were Superdrug 5 for £10 but they were really good Smile

Runner05 · 14/12/2015 20:26

Aww Stark sorry I didn't see your post. That does suck!

Shelb I'd still test tomorrow as you never know but if it only appeared after cracking the test open I think it's likely to be evap.

Pink yes, I'll be using the same brand test again. But I've never noticed this mark before except on the one this morning and the one this evening. All the others have been completely blank with no ambiguity... That being said, I still think it's most likely an indent line.

Pinklily1 · 14/12/2015 20:25

I got mine from Sainsbury's, but that was more on a whim than anything else. £7 for 7 tests, so you can definitely get cheaper ones.
