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?

Right, well as a sign of respect to the group I'll happily ditch that recently-acquired rule!! I'm sure our medieval fore-mothers were much happier without Google. And forefathers happier when not exiled from Vagland.

Ever we have just booked it so it's too late now. Italy here we come, hopefully with a bump to show off.

latin, I'm with confused, I'll take the chance of losing a few swimmers for the benefits! I read that saliva kills a few sperm but if your partner has a normal sperm count then a little bit of saliva won't damage your chances too much. That's what I am choosing to believe anyway :)

Confusedcat1 · 26/01/2016 20:04

I think I'll take my chances with the saliva Grin

leoniethelioness · 26/01/2016 20:03

Goodness, another thread already! Crossing my fingers for lots of BFPs soon!

Booooo

latinata · 26/01/2016 19:50

From mybaba.com (whatever tf that is!!):

^Many couples worry that oral sex could lower fertility or damage sperm. “There could be a slight impact with oral sex on fertility,” explains Zita. “As saliva contains enzymes and other agents which can damage sperm.”

So does this mean taking a break from oral activities if you’re trying to get pregnant? “Not at all,” says Zita. “Being engaged and aroused during sex is very important to fertility for both partners. So if oral sex is something you enjoy as a couple, then by all means keep doing it, but avoid the fertile window.”^

Chocaholic88 · 26/01/2016 19:49

Welcome Latin and kt 😊☺😊☺

I have violent nausea tonight. Note to self: we no longer like apples...

Kathrino · 26/01/2016 19:46

Hello kt and latinata. Sounds like both of you are going to fit in well here...

Lisa, I totally snorted at vagworld.

latinata · 26/01/2016 19:45

I read that saliva acts like a spermicide so best to be avoided, just like normal lube.

If someone wiser can prove me wrong I would be VERY grateful!!

Holly300 · 26/01/2016 19:45

Welcome to kt and Latin 😀💐

LisaTheGreek · 26/01/2016 19:43

Erm... Latinata, wtf???

I mean, I know it won't help with TTC, is that what you mean?

Or you also mean guys shouldn't get too comfy with their face in vagworld?

LisaTheGreek · 26/01/2016 19:40

Gah! Another one who didn't realise we were on a new thread!

Will read through in time. For now, below is what I posted on the old thread, and here are my stats...

Name: Lisa
Age: 29
TTC#1
Coming to the end of Cycle #1 but pretty certain it didn't happen this month. Waiting for AF to arrive then will try again next month.

Yay Choc - bloody amazing news girl, finally! So glad you've got the all-elusive BFP! Many congrats!

Kat - I love your dubious mathematics! And your crazy list-making skills

Ever - if Ovia appeared in real life (if I say her name in my mirror) I imagine she would be like that American woman from the Tampax adverts - 'Mother Nature', who says women can't do certain things on her period.

(Fucking hate those adverts...)

Snow - major lols at your DH - such a charmer! 

IrregularCommentary · 26/01/2016 19:39

Latin Hi! Also, no! I did not know that! Where does that come from?

Kt Yeah, I might have been known to do that out of curiosity... (I always change it back though so I'm sure it's fine)

latinata · 26/01/2016 19:32

Also, only recently learnt that oral sex is out when TTC. That was the low point of my week!

latinata · 26/01/2016 19:30

Hello all! Can I join?

TTC#1, cycle #1
2/3days PO but think I have a 10 day luteal phase- hoping I'll get an answer one way or another by 3/4th Feb to work out what the frick to do about a holiday to mexico on 6th Feb re: Zika virus! Arggh.

At least if BFN then green light for the holiday!!

Ironically feeling much worse in the mornings since giving up regular evening vino in last few weeks. If only embryos and fermented grapes were better friends...

Please may I join? 1mmc in November, waited for my periods to return to normal and back in the game now.

Cycle 2 CD14 (ooooooooo)
Ovulating.... Who knows when, constant CM inspection has never revealed the mythical EWCM that everyone goes on about. Chuckling to myself about all the Ovia comments. Delighted I'm not the only one talking to her like she's an actual person. Does anyone else change the data you enter just to see what she says?... (Just me?) x

FXSkip · 26/01/2016 19:21

No problem at at Kat thanks for all the effort - such a random job to do on a Tuesday night!!I've got no boobage, poop or farting related information. Just my poor brain trying to second guess every single sensation in my body.

Hi Harriet you sound lovely and positive - keep it up.
Smile

Oh yeah! I wouldn't worry about it, there are hospitals to go too if needed, but I am sure it won't be needed Smile
Starky I like your dog's name Smile the long for Nacho is José Ignacio, do you call him that when he is naughty? Hmm

Feefs* I am very confused about your DH's statement. He might be in denial as my DP. He doesn't realise we are trying even though the house is full of poas and I got the grumps when he wasn't willing during fw
Imp I am defo spying on that thread later
