We're on the 4th thread! Oh come all ye symptom spotters! And a fertile new year!

Bubba lovely dress

Purple that dog is gorgeous!! I hope you prepared for a lot of exercise through. A friend of mine trains border collies and they are amazing, friendly, mental balls of energy she trained one of them to look at the sky if you said "where's the aliens?" Lol

Anyway, happy new year all. I've got another fun filled day of packing followed by a drink at our local (our barman might be the first person to know I'm pregnant if I keep saying no to the usual) and a doze in front of jules holland.

Hi Elle - I drank before BFP. Yes it is nourished by the yolk sac that early on, think placenta only develops around week 5. Booze away! It's good for the sanity!

Beautiful wedding dress, gorgeous puppy!!
Hope everyone has a fabulous New Year's Eve and a 2016 filled with lots of luck and love and babies.
I'm due to test in 3 days, cd 26, roughly 11dpo according to ovia and my CM. I really want to test sooner but guess I can wait a bit longer, no real symptoms just bloating beyond belief ( don't know if that's a lot of food, my IBS or possible pregnancy though).

AF is due to arrive next week and not really feeling anything atm.
Oh and tonight I'm going to a neighbours for a party and I will be having a few drinks
Have a great day/night ladies xxxxx

ElleSarcasmo · 31/12/2015 09:56

Cheese this is day 31!! My other post pill cycles were 29 and 28 days. I would have thought if I was upduffed that a FRER would have been positive today, I thought I ovulated between 11-13 dec (Ovia thought about 3-4 days later). I am totally confused!

confused I don't know whether to have a drink or not now! I am with the 'drink till it's pink' camp, I did have a few drinks on Christmas Day but didn't go mad! I think one of the grads here (possibly Runner?) had been out drinking just before her BFP, and someone explained that when newly upduffed the baby takes its nutrition from the yolk sac as the placenta hasn't formed, so won't be affected by alcohol. HCG is released once the placenta has formed (I think!)

Purple he is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!

Purple baby envy has switched to puppy envy!!! He's gorgeous!! Aw I bet he's all fun and cuddles at his age. Lucky you!! Thanks for sharing the pic!

Ni4444 · 31/12/2015 08:50

Love the dress bubba! Good on you for getting it all organised so quickly!!

I reckon I'm now in the tww. I think my "fertile, watery CM" this week may have been pre-seed lube leftover from the night before! (tmi I know!). So I figure I ovulated maybe 26th/27th/28th-hope we caught it...time to be patient go mental, spot non existant symptoms, and pee on everything in sight

OH went to GP yest to organise to get his swimmers checked (I'm convinced his daily cycling is going to overheat the tadpoles!) Will report how that process goes...He now reckons I should get checked but at only cycle 3 they'd laugh me out the door!

A mellow New Years here...most of our friends are away so we'll be heading for dinner locally, but as he's been working earlies this week i wouldn't be surprised if we're tucked up and Zzz-ing when the clock hits midnight!

Happy new year to all of you mummies-to-be and baby dust all round!!

purplesmiler · 31/12/2015 08:46

Morning Ladies it's a BFN from me this morning and I can feel AF on the way. It does make you feel sad but at least it's NYE and I can have a few drinks to cheer myself up.

bubba the dress is beautiful.

Here is a pic of our puppy for those who asked

Oh what a beautiful wedding dress!!!

I know exactly what you mean stark hahahah

What is everyone's view on alcohol by the way? Drink til it's pink, or abstain until bfp?

cheeseandbanana · 31/12/2015 08:17

elle how far are you from your AF?

ElleSarcasmo · 31/12/2015 08:12

Ah sorry cheese, I feel your pain! DH told me yesterday that he didn't think I should test for another week when I said I was going to test today! He has been googling, god help us!

How are you feeling shelb? Hopefully tonight will turn out to be fun.

Forgot to say what I came on to say earlier which was happy new year everyone! And baby dust all round!
Xx

cheeseandbanana · 31/12/2015 08:07

Gorgeous dress bubba you look fab

BFN this morning so I'm feeling temperamental too and with my DH currently snorring loudly under the duvet while I'm trying to agonise over it means he might just get the kids sent in soon to jump on his head.

I'm really not sure what's going on at all with me, probably best just be patient now for AF

shelbTa · 31/12/2015 08:04

Stark - might be time to poas? Just sayin as my opks went up again once I got knocked up, don't know if you remember. God your NYE sounds amazing so wish I was doing that. Instead I've got to spend the night dodging shots and watch my mates get smashed!

Trying to keep up with thread but work is a bastard, happy new year everyone

Xx

ElleSarcasmo · 31/12/2015 07:57

Oh Bubba, your dress is beautiful! You must be so excited!

I thought I would cry for sure down the aisle as I normally cry at anything but couldn't stop smiling the whole day! I regularly cry at other people's weddings though, weird! I even had lash extensions done before the big day as I was worried about wearing mascara.

Bunch thanks for sharing your scan photo, it made me well up a little bit! It must have been lovely to hear the little heartbeat.

Starky liking the sound of your plans. No exciting plans here-quiet night in for me and DH. We've both had rotten colds and not enough relaxing time together so will cook something nice and just chill out.

Still no sign of AF (cycle day 31 today), but tested twice including with a FRER, BFN on both! No symptoms of any type other than a cold so assume she'll show up at some point and it's just irregular post pill cycle weirdness (only cycle 2, so pretty unsure what my cycle length is). I'm feeling a bit . Unsure whether I should drink or not either! I think I need to sign up to the OPKs next month, worried I won't be able to do them at the same time each day (NHS worker, sometimes don't have time to go to the toilet! Though at least not being too well hydrated for the test to work won't be a problem!). Does it matter if it is at the exact time?

Ooooh bubba your dress is beautiful! 👰💖💒💐💍💎

Makes me all nostalgic for my wedding! Ooh my okp's have been a shit storm of hormonal surges! I think it's why I'm not temping yet, because I'll end up confusing myself more! Planning on getting af out of the way next week or so and then just dtd every other day when it's buggered off! Might not okp who am I kidding next month!

Can fully recommend marks and Spencer for suits, Dh is somewhat difficult to buy for massive bulky shoulders, thin waist, muscle arse and legs he basically looks like a brunette jonny bravo/the hulk! And his suit was very reasonable price wise and good quality too!

We have a strict "if one person is watching the TV, the other wears earphones" rule, no exceptions. I don't want to listen to some gym fiend grunting/barbells clanging while they lift videos, Dh doesn't want to hear Dr Phil "prattling on" or women squealing about pregnancy tests. It works for us! Otherwise there would definetly be murder! and he's a big lad, I'd need an acomplice, plus, I'd have to clear up

I'm on cd26, I'd have another crack at dtd if you can manage kat, I now completely understand what shelb said about being sick of the sight of cock and balls! I think I'm in the tww, although ovia tells me to test tomorrow from first lh surge but I think I'll hold off unil about the 10th, In case I only just ovulated. Think I missed my ovulation though. I literally have no idea!

I'm going WILD tomorrow! I've got a bottle of posh pink lemonade chilling, half a pound of dolly mixture and a bag of cheese puffs in the cupboard! I think my dsis is coming over, we'll probably watch reruns of 'the tudors' on netflix until about 11:55 and then watch the fireworks out of the back bedroom window. We live on the top of a hill so we get quite a good view of all the displays. What about you? 🎊🎉💟💐🍹🍼🍦

New years baby dust all round guys!

Bubbapup89 · 31/12/2015 00:40

Miley it will happen for you. I started to think it would never happen for me as we had been together nearly 8 years and no proposal! He proposed end of August and we were leisurely thinking we would get married summer 2018 when my grandma and his grandad got very poorly so nearly 3 weeks ago we decided quick let's plan it now so they are still about and only have cars, suits and bridesmaid dresses left to sort!

Starky your opks have been so confusing, I am confused by my temp chart but am now hoping I will have a few months to figure it out ( assuming I didn't ovulate early and fall which is why I hadn't fallen before!) Here is the dress

KatOnATinRo0f · 31/12/2015 00:08

Starky I have days like that.... Everything they do winds you up right? DH not being too bad today. Playing stupid game on iPad while I'm trying to watch tv. He won't put it on silent. Apparently he needs the irritating noise. It's almost worse on low volume. Grrrr

My OPK today shows fading line. CD14. Ovia has me at 10 for fertile. I'm thinking its a bit late as my first peak day was 6 days ago. (I think it was stronger the day after that). Dtd again today anyway. I am officially on Tww now. Wonder if it's worth dtd until AF shows just in case. If I am not upduffed this month then the whole bloody thing is ridiculous.

NYE plans anyone?

StarkyTheDirewolf · 30/12/2015 23:10

Update : Dh has sat down, stopped faffing, had a brew and an avocado...cause he's a weirdo and wound his neck in.

He may survive the night.

I'm with you on that one cat I'm swinging wildly between wanting to punch Dh square in the cock he's being agitated, huffing for absolutely no discernable reason, he won't sit down/still, is fannying about with my washing basket order and it's thoroughly getting on my tits to thinking I'm going to start a weep fest and wanting a cwtch! I keep thinking I've come on af, but there's nowt coming out!

OP posts:

Confusedcat1 · 30/12/2015 22:01

Pretty sure I'm out, af must be on its way, I've been crying like a baby all day...

Pinklily1 · 30/12/2015 21:44

When in doubt DTD Starky!! I reckon you can never have too much sex in this TTC whirlwind!

I'm generally feeling ok at the minute thanks, just super tired all of the time. 9pm is pretty much bedtime for me now

StarkyTheDirewolf · 30/12/2015 21:31

pink reproduction just genuinely boggles my mind, I find it all fascinating! how are you feeling today?

I'm borderline convinced I'm going get an early af in the next week or so given my cramps. Didn't do an okp today, im just making myself more bonkers so decided just to dtd later on see what happens over the course of the next few weeks, will probably stick to the scheduled banging of every other day. Keeps Dh happy and he's quite amused by it all I reckon!

Starky, love the making a person with your genitals comment, made me chuckle

StarkyTheDirewolf · 30/12/2015 20:47

Depending on where you are in your cycle why it could be a symptom of ovulation, it could be an implantation bleed, what day are you on? Have your been doing okp's?

OP posts:

cheeseandbanana · 30/12/2015 20:36

What stage are you at in your cycle why? There are ladies here far more superior in tmi knowledge than myself who I hope will be along soon.

It could be a sign of ovulation or if your later on in your cycle a sign of implantation maybe.
