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

glitter that sounds awful. I have a feeling I will be experiencing it myself soon.

Well FW has begun and have decided to not use OPK's this time and just go the old fashioned every other day routine. It's a small thing but hope it will help us relax a bit this time round.

glitterpoppy · 01/03/2016 22:19

Hi all, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you prty your not out yet!

snowy I feel for you, it's awful isn't it? Least it's done now though.

Well had my X-ray Monday, it was awful.. Hated it. They said it would be like a smear so I though it wouldn't be too bad. I just didn't expect it which made it worse. It was so painful and uncomfortable when they injected the dye ad then when it was over I just burst into tears. I felt like such a wimp!! Think my DH wondered what the hell had happened when he saw me in the hospital gown looking like I'd been punched in the face Blush had abit of a stomach ache since but not too bad. At least it's done now though and just need to wait to go back to discuss everything.

PrtyPsn · 01/03/2016 21:12

Maybe... I'm thinking it's probably anovulatory cycle, time will tell I guess!

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 01/03/2016 21:07

prty - maybe you ovulated a bit later so there's still chance for you? If there's no af then I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you x

PrtyPsn · 01/03/2016 20:46

Yeah kitten due today... the BFN has convinced me that it's not my cycle this time round. No sign of her this evening, just still those few niggly cramps

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 01/03/2016 20:08

snowy - sorry it was a bad experience, I'm dreading mine too.
prty - wasn't af due today? I'd be excited if I were you Grin

PrtyPsn · 01/03/2016 14:57

Awww poor you snowy no fun being a woman is it??
kitten nope, keep getting the odd cramp my twinge but she's not here yet. Trying not to get too hopeful everytine I wipe and it's clear because I know she's on her way :(

OP posts:
snowy1982 · 01/03/2016 13:47

Think that was my worst smear experience kitten apparently my cervix just wasn't playing ball today

MrsKittenPie · 01/03/2016 09:05

snowy - oh no, I would be the same too. Hope it's not too bad x

snowy1982 · 01/03/2016 08:40

Smear test today, dread the thoughts of it

MrsKittenPie · 01/03/2016 08:23

Thanks prty X
Yes definitely for the next thread Grin
Any news this morning?

PrtyPsn · 01/03/2016 07:41

That sounds like excellent timing kitten FXd for you, lovely x
The next thread will def have an ice cream/foof title!

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 29/02/2016 22:17

So cd18 here and a positive opk today. I thought I'd got a positive opk 3 days ago but comparing that to today's it was not positive. Usually dh would be on nights so would have had no chance to dtd but as a bonus he wasn't today so managed to dtd - let's hope it leads to bfp Smile

MrsKittenPie · 29/02/2016 22:13

Ha ha and me!! Grin I think there needs to be some reference to that in our next thread Grin

PrtyPsn · 29/02/2016 17:21

Haha if it would help then I'd do it!!

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 29/02/2016 17:20

prty - that really made me laugh Grin - glad you clarified Wink

PrtyPsn · 29/02/2016 17:07

Just to clarify the ice cream is being shovelled into my mouth, not my foof - looking back it sounded a bit ambiguous!

OP posts:
PrtyPsn · 29/02/2016 17:06

glitter good luck, let us know how it went!
kitten nothing, AF due tomorrow, no pains and no spotting, just shovelling in the ice cream and waiting

OP posts:
MrsKittenPie · 29/02/2016 14:13

glitter - hope you get on okay
pirsy - sorry about af but onwards and upwards and definitely closer to your bfp.
prty - any news?

glitterpoppy · 29/02/2016 08:42

Thanks ladies, I know you're right.. I'm just a worrier and start panicking about everything. I go at12, so looking forward to getting that bit done.. Then it's just DH SA to do then it's back to discuss the results in just under 3 months!

That's good pirsy onwards and upwards to the next cycle and I'm sure closer to that BFP.. I can feel it that this thread will get some exciting news from someone soon!!

Pirsy1 · 29/02/2016 07:47

Good luck today Poppy! You'll be fine. Prty's right - you'll be another step closer.

AF here for me now. Im actually glad - I couldnt take much more of the pre-AF symptoms. Can get on with another cycle now too! Plus DH is going to doctor on Friday to arrange to do his SA!

PrtyPsn · 28/02/2016 20:10

High five for pirsy
glitter I'm sure it's all gonna go fine, just think of it as one step closer to that BFP!

OP posts:
glitterpoppy · 28/02/2016 17:50

Sorry about the bfn prty and pirsy

AF has just finished for me and then got the X-ray of my tubes tomorrow. feeling slightly nervous Confused

Pirsy1 · 28/02/2016 15:22

That goes without saying! A small one doesnt cut it at our party.
