Thanks Stark smile]**

Actually it's been quite a few years as my kids are 8 and 10. There have been a few times that we have ttc #3 for a few months and nothing happened. I'm determined this time it will!!!

With both of my dcs, the earliest symptom I got was very full and tender breasts. But this can also be a sign of AF!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 13/01/2016 01:06

Aaah you're more than welcome holly if anything you will be super helpful because you've been pregnant before so you might be better at symptom spotting etc Grin

In my stupidness I failed to notice the ttc#1 in the thread title until now! Is it still ok for me to join?

StarkyTheDirewolf · 13/01/2016 00:45

Welcome again holly 😊

Fx, but I'm still determined af will show up late to the pants party! Grin

Kat please add me to the list :)

I only posted to introduce myself but haven't posted anything else yet so you probably missed me.

Holly ttc #3 c1 cd16

Not sure when test date is as waiting to ov and periods can be quite irregular. I think prob sometime end of Jan/beginning of Feb.

I have been silently glued to this thread and I think it's so lovely how nice and supportive everyone is of each other, with no judgements at all. Smile

Congrats to everyone who got a BFP, good luck to everyone who is still yet to test and to everyone who has just got their af, good luck for the Feb bus. Choc and Stark, I hope you both get answers asap.

Sorry for long post! Thanks

Dunking popcorn in Nutella - it's like picturing what heaven must be like......

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 23:36

We've been married 7 months canters and are still in the honeymoon bubble! Fear not! Grin enjoy your last few days!

Awww I dunno owls think my uterus is just playing silly buggers! Fx like but seems really unlikely, probably my body just adding a few more days onto an already unbelievably long cycle! Grin

Ni4444 · 12/01/2016 23:29

I'll be 9the Feb testing Kat. Thanks! I agree...I like to see the list and who's up next!

Question.. Does LH stay in your urine...as in...if I'm really busy and don't go to the loo after leaving work until now... Will any level of hormone released from 3pm stay in the urine waiting in my bladder for me to pee it on a stick? It sounds stupid...but this is the place for stupid questions! Confused

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 23:22

Hey canters!! Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon. You are on the provisional list that will be posted in the Wednesday edit.

I honestly find it so hard to keep track of everyone and the list is making it easier :) when I spot someone mention their test date I pop them on the "working list" in notes app. Post at end of day so not hundreds of lists. And voila :)

Off to bed (I will sleep off AF so can get dtd again soon) zzzzzzz

LillianFullStop · 12/01/2016 23:19

Welcome back canters - here's to a honeymoon baby!

Yes I love the list kat - it really feels like a party feb bus! I'm 12 til FW so I'm passing around WineWine

Laurenowls · 12/01/2016 23:13

stark you definately sound upduffed!! I personally think your body is just being mean and not telling you Smile

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 23:09

CANTERRRRRRRS WELCOME BAAACK! Did you have the most amazing time?! Congratulations on your wedding!

We shall see, think af may get me in the night!

Just checking in from ze honeymoon. Having an awesome time, back in 2 days, wah I want to stay in newlywed bubble for ever!

I am now 6 days pre AF. Skittle tits for the last week (unusual at this point in cycle) and creamy cm (ditto) but cervix soft and low (yes I just went to the loo and fondled myself) so not too hopeful.

Also sobbed my eyes out on DH yesterday because I was so sure I wasn't preg.

Stark, test tomorrow woman! Lana, congrats.

I may test on tues..... 19th I think.

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 23:02

(Also just had another thought.... If you would not like your cycle or AF or anything else to be so greatly analysed then please tell me if you would like to chill on the bus at the back with headphones on not sit at the front with a name badge and I will remove you from the register)

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 23:01

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 22:59

Soz DH has been hanging around this evening so haven't been able to update the list with newbies. I've done that now (we now have two Lauren's, have used laurenowl's full name to avoid confusion. I hope I have got everything up to date- not sure on everyone's cycle lengths so feb bussers don't have all their dates yet.

Welcome all newbies... We seem to have had major cycle 1 luck so fx for everyone.

So many testers coming up!!! I am not slightly jealous that I am now in the feb bus and have ages to wait but hey ho hum. ThanksBiscuitWineChocolateCake

Laurenowls · 12/01/2016 22:43

Choc
I hope it is good news for you Smile

waves back

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 22:34

pug I'm seeing my usual doctor on Friday so I'll ask her to clarify and book another blood test if she thinks I need it! It's so stressful lol!

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 22:31

Hi irregular kath and lauren

You can't see but I'm waving!

Well I'm feeling slightly reassured by the midwife not being at all phased. Plus a few close friends have actually had similar which surprised me!

Potentiallt I'll be 10-11 weeks when i have the booking appointment...problem is... I also don't want to get my hopes up too much!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 22:26

Sorry guys Grin I have eaten two with a brew and I'm so happy right now! I'm warm, comfy and watching sherlock with my dsis. Dh at work, dsis dippung popcorn in nutella, 3 digs asleep and one dog meeping for a treat! The wolf pack is quiet for now! 🐶 🐶 🐶 🐶 👭

Hi
I'm new here but everyone just seems really nice!!
Stats age 22
Cd 12
ttc #1

Me and oh have dts for a ciple days now and still got 2 days to go til ovulation but it's unbelievable how much i want to be pg!! But i need to stop my crazy thoughts (dreams as well ha ha) im due to test on 28th jan so im holding hope.for this month :)

Kathrino · 12/01/2016 22:23

I took full advantage of AF to eat copious amounts of raw cookie dough when I was baking chocolate chip cookies for work last night. I'm pretty sure that biscuits are the only thing that make TTC bearable.

AllyBali123 · 12/01/2016 22:19

Starky - omg how good are those aldi biscuits! I totally want some now u have mentioned them haha!!

AllyBali123 · 12/01/2016 22:17

I almost devoured an entire tube of jelly tots tonight...also raided my Dds tub of Xmas choc....bad mummy and going to bed feeling sick again due to my over consumption of sweets,this point in the month is just so much fun!! Confused
