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/2480630-So-its-John-Wayne-vs-Les-Dawson-in-The-Great-British-Pee-Off-and-Prtys-judging-get-ready-to-be-basted-lovelies?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

CD90 today.. FX that when I phone my doctors the scan results will be there so I can book an appointment to go back in and discuss everything.

There's always Becks Blue pantz I'd also recommend enlisting OH as a partner in crime to deflect questions or suspicions by getting drinks for you or changing the subject

Yeah, I think it's going to be much easier to switch my drinks than it is to make my excuses. I'm shit at lying, and unfortunately I never turn down a drink with my family! So dark red Shloer on the sly it is then!! Let's just hope all the hassle will be worth it, eh...

neetie1 · 20/12/2015 17:45

On on tww now as well temps are staying up for now and no obvious symptoms either way so will wait and see it's only day 18 of cycle though had my positive ovulation test on day 12 of cycle,

PrtyPsn · 20/12/2015 16:38

pantz I quit drinking in March so I've perfected the excuses - feeling sick, headache, still a little drunk from last night, having a horrible period and of course just pretending I am drinking (lemonade can so easily be 'vodka' and lemonade, just don't let people sniff it!) over Christmas I'm driving a lot to see all friends and family plus working too so think I can get away with it!

Howdy! Thanks for the warm welcome. Hopefully this will be a fairly quick 2WW, thanks to Christmas festivities. Just finished the last of my xmas shopping today in fact (manic out there...don't do it to yourselves!).

Prty I'm glad to have a buddy to hand hold! Have you planned your non-alcohol excuses yet? Love the title btw Grin

When's everybody else's next AF due?

Pirsy1 · 20/12/2015 15:17

Yay I made it! Loving the name too ... good work Prty!

PrtyPsn · 20/12/2015 14:40

Hi poppy thanks - it gets harder every time to think if something, especially since I only ever expected one or two responses to my original post all those months ago!
