Symptom spotters, tww - ers, slightly hysterical hormone laden ladies! Regs, lurkers, intermittent posters! Our raison d'etre is 'am I pregnant?' Depending on how much Ovia (Whybird) has pissed us off/messed with our fw she is either the oracle or a sanctimonious charlatan.

Just a warning, we move FAST! Our threads last on average, about a week before they're full.

Thread 8 , Welcome one and all! Group of weirdos, wee hoarders, covert opk or okp, depending on what your autocorrect decides addicts with a side business in CM management!

We do not judge, we enjoy TMI, we i encourage waiting to poas nobody listens and all the grossness you can find from a group of intelligent, articulate ladies. Fart stories make us laugh, stories about cervical mucus, pooing, cysts and nausea equally welcome. Although normal conversation is also encouraged.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kat a resident piss stick queen runner loaaaaaads of bfp'ers who keep us positive! We don't have rules, we love a good symptom spot, we try to stay grounded and not be hysterical sometimes we manage it aswell

We like acronyms, we make some up: PET = Proper expensive test. We love the d(h)...which can of course mean 'dearest' or 'dickhead' why, what were you thinking?

Hi everyone,

I've been trying to keep up but you guys are flying through threads, just thought I'd second starkeys ideology of not testing until AF due date is here/passed, look how my line changed from 2 days before period was due to the day after it was due!

I'm now 1 week into knowing I'm pregnant and more scared every day with the more info I read, knowledge is not power haha Smile

Hope you're all doing well and good luck for feb!! I'm sure lots more BFPs are to come!

Ah but doesn't sperm survive 3-5 days twinky DTD at the last possible second? Ha ha

twinkydink · 28/01/2016 20:53

Right so according to FF I may have just ovulated based on CM but oviabitch is sticking with my not ovulating till Monday!

Am only CD 10 isn't that pretty early to ovulate? I think I'm getting my hopes up cos DP is away from tomorrow which would mean no dtd during Ovia FW. Aaahhhh over thinking everything!

IndiX · 28/01/2016 20:48

Now I'm convincing myself it's trapped wind..can you get trapped wind in your boobs? I don't know if it would last 2/3 days but trying trying reeaalllyyy hard not to get my hopes up or symptom spot

Feefeefs · 28/01/2016 20:37

Also squeezing my boobs a lot. A bit tender but not that bad, normal for me to have very painful ones before AF though to such an extent I asked the GP about it before

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 20:30

As for boobs... I have already gone up to an E cup (normally DD and they're already far too large for my frame at 5 foot 9 and size 10) I look very out of proportion and ridiculous at the best of times so got help me. They feel so solid and tender already. I feel like they're going to make me very off balance

iPatches · 28/01/2016 20:30

star - I was like that, not actively trying NOT to touch them or even look at or think about them. With anything. Including my own bra. It came on very suddenly.

iPatches · 28/01/2016 20:28

fx indeed Indi and Holly - not sure I can cope with this level of boob pain every month if it's just regular PMS!

stardusty5 · 28/01/2016 20:28

I can't be the only one who keeps squeezing my boobs to see if theyre sore?

Theyre not. Humph.

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 20:28

LOL you ladies are absolutely crackers. I'm actually creasing at the lion king refs 😂

starky you're always very welcome to talk to us about your days. That's what we're all here for and we'll do our best to keep your chin up and you can do your best to work your voodoo shit and tell everyone when to test. Deal? Grin

IndiX · 28/01/2016 20:18

I do have a good feeling as this is really unusual for me but don't want to get too excited. Fx for us both ipatches or this boob pain would be really annoying!
Holly I do love my boob job but slightly worried how enormous they will grow when I eventually get upduffed I imagine as big as two cows heads, as my mum would say.

Holly300 · 28/01/2016 20:12

Indi it would prob be too much of a coincidence for it to do with your implants. Sounds like sore boobs! Fx for you. Btw I've always wanted to get my boobs done ;)

Holly300 · 28/01/2016 20:09

I have fx for you ipatches X

iPatches · 28/01/2016 20:00

Indi - mine started VERY suddenly - I had cramps on Saturday morning so was sure AF was on her way (despite no other PMS symptoms) and then Sunday the boobs started and have definitely been getting more painful throughout the day. I do get sore boobs with PMS but not this bad; have been on BC for a long time though so not sure what "normal" PMS is like for me. The pain is concentrated around the nips though Blush rather than the whole boob which is what I usually get, and they're really lumpy around this area too. Thursday today so I've had 5 full days of this...

latinata · 28/01/2016 19:55

... until we run out of crisps

LisaTheGreek · 28/01/2016 19:46

From the day we arrive on this planet....

latinata · 28/01/2016 19:46

Starky, have just remembered that Nacho is your dog. Was imagining you with large bag of Mexican crisps above your head.

stardusty5 · 28/01/2016 19:39

Haaaa sevenya baddaddesidowa!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 28/01/2016 19:29

I've felt awful because this is such a positive thread and I'm here going in about death and funerals! Honestly though, I'm just glad I can do something whilst families are grieving, and a funeral is the last practical thing we can do for them, I just want their days to be as smooth as possible.

And if anything, it's definetly made me so pleased we (all of us) are ttc because without ttc there's no new life and life is precious

IndiX · 28/01/2016 19:26

Yes ipatches! I feel the same, I NEVER have sore boobs but they feel heavy and bruised to touch and my nipples are sensitive. I'm really trying not to symptom spot as I went a bit mad last month on my first cycle. I don't know if this is how boobs are meant to feel around AF or PG never had sore boobs near AF though? I mentioned this the other day but I also have implants so I'm hoping it's nothing to do with them but they've been in for 5 years with no problems, so fx it's a good pg sign! Mine definitely get more sore throughout the day and they I don't know if I'm imagining them looking feeling bigger/harder. I'm only about 7/8dpo though..

LisaTheGreek · 28/01/2016 19:16

Stark - I am so sorry about your week. Nothing about AF or conceiving seems to count so much when you're talking about funerals and such horrible things.

You're a rock.

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 19:15

Mmmmmm mango bellini's...

Please pour one for me and then drink it stark

kat that's a pretty god damned long day. I feel for you, that's dedication!

Evergreen15 · 28/01/2016 19:14

Ladies Smile
Confused doc didn't say so, Dr. Google did Confused but I worried all the same. Blush
Indi we are testing buddies!! The 5th if AF doesnt show up. I have cero symptoms :-(
Cthulhoo sorry to hear about test. I heard that is common for women to have some anovulatory cycles, and I think there is medication to help? So sorry to hear. Give yourself time to digest the news then I am sure there will be a plan out there for you. ThanksThanks
Imp big decision, I am sure you will make the right one. I had something similar in a smaller scale and I stayed at my job, but mine was the commuting mainly and the job. But you say about your other child and a better life for him... Mmmhhh tough Thanks
Miley! Frame that one Grin
I am having some of those Mango bellinis when AF hits me. Stark you inspired us Grin
