shelbTa · 31/12/2015 18:59

Haha! Well fingers crossed for you.

Anyway, best getting ready for a night out pretending to drink booze. Fucks sake.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 18:45

Haha that's very true shelb sore boobs last time and I got a bfn probably didn't help we hadn't managed to dtd at all during my fertile week last time

But you're right, I was thinking of your soggy muff this afternoon when I had mine! I'm not even kidding either! Wandering round the shops trying to do a mental recap of who had a soggy muff before their bfp! I think runner and bunch did too! Its probably my body playing silly buggers though!

shelbTa · 31/12/2015 18:33

Hmmmm. The detective / stalker in me would say I remember when you had super sore nips and got a bfn. Wet muff and cramps were also my symptoms. And feeling a bit barfy.

DreamyDreamer · 31/12/2015 18:17

Yeah mine too... Hopefully implantation bleeding for us both.
Can't say I have any particular symptoms worth noting today so will see what happens on Saturday if AF doesn't show up.
Baby elephants..... That would have tipped me over the emotional edge. It would be Hoover dam opening if I'd watched that.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 18:11

Basically cheese I like to have a bit of time to myself when I'm testing, so, rather than doing a midstream test or rushing our toilet is a separate room to the bathroom,so can't pretend to be in the shower or whatever I wee in a tiny tupperware, pop the lid on and take it into my little dressing room which nobody else uses and do my okp's etc in there.

Except on more than one occasion, my Dh/dsis has woken up and been mooching about and I like to take my time and study the tests on my own. So Ive had to hide it in the wardrobe which in fairness, only had plastic boxes of make up and fake tan etc in and then leave it till later in when everybody's out! There's method to my madness!

shelb my nips seem ok, not sore or anything, bit tender but thats fairly usual for this time I'm my cycle, having waves of feeling dizzy/sick though, but thats probably down to not eating enough! Hope I'm not getting a cold!

Pinklily1 · 31/12/2015 18:05

I'd forgotten about your wee in the wardrobe Shelb, one of the highlights of this thread Grin

shelbTa · 31/12/2015 18:02

How are your nips stark?

cheeseandbanana · 31/12/2015 17:56

Wow what's with the wee in wardrobe?!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 17:49

And I've had a weirdly moist floo all day! TMI sorry!

I've got kids goggle box on record ni thanks for the warning! I won't watch that later! I'd be a MESS!

OP posts:
StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 17:37

I am the hormone queen of the north today too, I nearly cried in the Trafford Centre twice I don't even know why! I was just weepy and unreasonable and overwhelmed!

OP posts:
StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 17:27

Hahaha sorry shelb it's in a tupperware though! I didn't just wee in the wardrobe Grin

Dh is still in a rotten mood, fuck he's an angry bugger when I wake him up early and we don't dtd I say early, it was half 1! Got some frers though! Superdrug 10iu ones, I'm probably going to save it till tomorrow because I won't get time now today, so I can throw out my tupperware of wee!

OP posts:
cheeseandbanana · 31/12/2015 15:19

I didn't see the elephants but the other day I was watching Sky news do their round up of 2015 and cried my eyes out watching the Syrian refugees on the train. But that is a sad story anyway.

Feeling full of cold today, sore throat, blocked sinuses and red raw eyes Sad
Don't think I'm up to much merryment later.

LittleBelle90 · 31/12/2015 15:15

I watched it Ni. I was trying to hold back the tears! DH thought I was being stupid and to turn over

Ni4444 · 31/12/2015 13:52

Speaking of being a weepy mess...Did anyone see the kids version of gogglebox last night? Kids getting upset at watching a group of elephants trying to save the baby elephants from getting washed downstream!! Floodgate alert Blush OH thought I was losing the plot!!

shelbTa · 31/12/2015 13:37

Jesus stark I thought picturing your piss in the wardrobe was confined to history, now it's back!!! Well fingers totally crossed for you, it would make a great end to the year.

Confusedcat1 · 31/12/2015 13:17

Hey! I had the brown stuff for two days and then it stopped! I'm due and testing on Saturday if af doesn't arrive before then.....

DreamyDreamer · 31/12/2015 13:12

confused did your spotting stop?

I cried yesterday at the new film 'Joy' when she sold her mops, cried at 'Don't tell the Bride' and 'Call the midwife Xmas Special' I need to get a grip.

I had spotting 11 + 12 DPO and now 14 DPO and not had a sniff of AF or a BFP (tested today on a FRER)

I have a Clear Blue Digi stashed away for Saturday testing.....because this is my first cycle since stopping the pill, I had no real idea when AF would be due but technically I'm CD28 today. I had cramping during my positive ovulation tests so I'm pretty sure I did actually ovulate.

Surely something has to happen in the next couple of days.......

It NYE either way so I'll be having a few Wine

Is anyone else testing Saturday?

StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/12/2015 12:49

shelb I've saved my fmu it's in the wardrobe again have to nip out and get some belated Christmas gifts this afternoon so going to aim to get a shit ton of frers! Did an ic, not a sausage, okp still double line arguably positive but both fainter. Pretend you woke up with a uti/kidney infection, that will take away the expectation to drink, plus it will explain frequent weeing and an is an excuse to go home early cause "you're not feeling very well",

elle sorry you're feeling rotten, cwtch up under a blankie with some crisps and sweeties and enjoy the evening snottily together. Dh is working till 4 am, he probabky wont get home till 5-6 am so ill be sparko by the tune he gets into bed.

Sorry about your bfn cheese
cat I don't really drink, I did enough of that in my youth last year Dh doesn't drink either, we're quite boring, we might have a bottle of prosecco between us occasionally but thats about it! I'll probably have a glass of champagne tomorrow with my family.

Omg purple look at this paws! And the furtive eyes, oooooooh he's bloody gorgeous!

ni they don't tend to take it seriously unless you've been trying 6-12 months, I think it's also dependant on age, I'd be tempted to fib and say I'd been trying ages, but then, if nothings happened by June, that will be my cue to get checked, 30th birthday in June! Dh has been banned from saunas and cycling too

pink he's only still breathing because I need him to take me to get some frers today! 😁

I still can't believe we are on thread 4, and it's not even the 1st of January! We are soo lucky to have had so many bfp's! What a blessing! And long may it continue! Hope everyone has a very happy, sperm filled, fertile, new year!

My Dh has just instructed me to "tell everyone to be careful and stay safe there'll be some nutters out tonight!...And if they're pregnant, tell them to sit down a lot, so they don't get knocked over by dickheads pushing and shoving.." can you tell he's a bloody bouncer?! So yeah, with love from Mr Starky!

Ha runner I don't have a test otherwise probs would have by now! On my way back to london now so might pick one up at kings x on arrival ready for tomorrow - if I'm testing early suppose should wait for FMU tomorrow to maximise reliability?

Runner05 · 31/12/2015 12:05

Harriet If in doubt, test. If not in doubt, test. If you just happen to have a test, test! Wink

harrietm87 · 31/12/2015 11:54

Hi everyone!

Cuuuuute puppy purple!!!! And gorgeous dress bubba!

I'm cd 31 today which I think is 10dpo...too early to test right??? Cramping has died down which is weird because AF should be due. No other symptoms except major bloating which is sadly likely to be due to overindulgence!

I'm going to a dinner party tonight and will def be having a few drinks!

Pinklily1 · 31/12/2015 10:20

Beautiful dress Bubba. Sounds like you are ploughing through the organisation too! I'm in the process of planning a wedding too although ours isn't until 2017, which is a blessing now because of the baby which is cooking, but sometimes I do think the less time you have, the less stressful it would actually be as you know you just need to get everything done asap.

Starky, glad for your OH's sake that he survived the night! If you are tempted to top him again, remember his swimmers are vital in the TTC process unless you are already upduffed and he has served his purpose GrinWink

Purple, the puppy is gorgeous!

Sorry to those who have had BFNs, but you never know until AF arrives.

I was still having a weekend drink or two whilst TTC. My view is drink until you get a BFP. I wasn't one for putting everything in life on hold.

Happy new year to everyone in advance! I think I will be tucked up in bed by 9pm Smile
