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/Ovibitch) 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 9 , 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.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kat, I have been dubbed the resident piss stick queen 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?

I spent my formative years working on an ice cream van, I've got mad Mr. Whippy skills 😁 and weirdly enough, working a Mr whippy machine is an actual skill! That's probably why I'm so anal about ice cream! I've made strawberry frogurt, but not yonana! Which sounds amazing!

holly fmu is definitely the one to wait for! Fx for you in the morning!

starky all that lurvemakin put your back out? ;)

ni we do that with bananas. Lovely frozen banana whizzed up with milk and sometimes oats, peanut butter, dates. So yum

Ni4444 · 01/02/2016 21:06

Stark I would die for ice cream....but your organisation of it is inspirational! I need to put more effort into my presentation!! Yum yum. Have you ever tried yonanas? Frozen fruit ice cream you can homemake? Its the only way I can indulge without exploding!!

Holly300 · 01/02/2016 20:57

Oh Starky I love that ice cream! I could really do with one of those now:)

I bought a 2pack FRER and took one this evening BFN. I'll take the other one in the morning with fmu - I'll be 15dpo. Fx. Somehow thinking I may be out and that my body is playing cruel tricks on me :(

StarkyTheDirewolf · 01/02/2016 20:53

I've had backache all day, so as a treat, I've just had salted caramel ice cream, the Devonshire one made with clotted cream! In a cone. With chocolate sauce. And sprinkles. And a flake. I don't mess about when it comes to ice cream me! Grin 🍦

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:44

Blush lol planteer.

I'm tired. ..and have fat thumbs. Can't spell either..

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:42

Congrats Indi!

I'm going to test 2moro. Asda cheapie so no real biggie. Cycle normally around 25 days so funny poas away!

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 20:39

Ha, love googling as go ogling... Just as apt Smile

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:35

Googling Implantation ...even

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:34

Latinata and Star I'm on cd24 and this is my second day of brown spotting. Think sticky CM too. Boob's sore. Weird plopping sensations down there too. Been go ogling iplamantation bleeding! Arrgghh

Cthulhoo · 01/02/2016 20:14

Teaching a class today and during the break most are talking about their kids and one classmate's recent pregnancy. So. F*cking. Jealous. :(

Kathrino · 01/02/2016 20:14

Definitely feels like AF is about to arrive which would be a couple of days early but not unexpectedly so. Ugh.

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 01/02/2016 19:56

Can't stop thinking about Nutella now..... Damn you diet!!

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 01/02/2016 19:55

Congrats indi!

flying mmmmm Nutella! Symptoms sound promising!

mi you're not out too you're out!!

snow my temps are odd this cycle too - Lower at this point vs last month but I'm still pre-ovulatory. Your graph looks like you haven't ovulated yet but looks of things can affect temps, so who knows, maybe you have? Keep pissing on those sticks just in case!

I'm CD8 / 28 today. Fw starts mid this week. Been crampier than usual but I think that's down to the higher dose soya this month.

Runner05 · 01/02/2016 19:54

I just like to keep you apprised of the joy you have to come very soon Stark I do adore my baby Alien I just wish he wasn't quite so intent on making me feel like death warmed up!

No break in the morning sickness yet guess what that used to be is currently one of my favourite games while hanging over the toilet bowl I've just been signed off for another 3 weeks Confused seems like I'm a pretty bad case though and bad morning sickness does run in my family. Most of the other grads have been less whiny had an easier time of it so far.
I'm hoping that this ordeal means that I get a super easy labour to make up for it Wink

SuchaJem · 01/02/2016 19:50

Mmmm Nutella.

Loving the grad chat, how bloomin exciting. Really hope it get to join you soon!

FlyingSpaghettiM0nster · 01/02/2016 19:47

Fingers crossed Planeteer (your username is awesome btw)

I was going to test on Sunday, but Starky has inspired me and now I think I will wait until AF is actually due, which is the 11th. I must be strong!

I just had a quick look at my phone calendar and realised that it's pancake day soon..... not that I'm excited or anything

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:42

Sorry you're feeling weird though spaghetti. Fx for weirdness leading to bfpness in just over a week's time

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:40

Nutella is always a happy thing. That is the law. Smile

FlyingSpaghettiM0nster · 01/02/2016 19:39

5/6dpo and today has been weird. Felt tired, sick, had backache. I'm not sure if my hips hurt or if it was cramps in the lady region.... I sometimes get sore hips after going on the treadmill... which I did this morning. Did feel really weird though today. I also just ate 2 big spoonfuls of nutella right out of the jar. I'm torn between feeling happy that I ate nutella and sad that I ate nutella. Either way....nutella

latinata · 01/02/2016 19:33

stardusty I share your (spotting) pain. Just flow or don't, already!

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:32

Stardusty I'm the same. What I thought was AF is now entering day 3 of spotting. Annoying!! Red witch is apparently on a tricycle rather than in her customary limo! I'm pretty certain I'm still out but wish she'd stop pillocking about and arrive properly!

Miley love that you're still weeing on sticks for the hell of it! That's the sort of poas dedication we like to see Smile

iPatches · 01/02/2016 19:27

Indi - really hopeful for you! Grin I tried the cheap internet tests and got a weird faint line 2 days before AF was due. I got the same thing the day before AF was due to I took a Clear Blue test which gave me a very clear BFP. I took both again the day AF was due and test strip was very faint again whilst a 2nd Clear Blue was another very clear BFP. I checked both of them and they both say they pick up hCG at 25mlU/ml but still got different different results. I took a cheap strip test again today (AF due yesterday) and got another VERY faint line. Maybe try Clear Blue the day before AF is due???

Holly - the reason I knew was the boobs, but even with the super-faint test lines, I was adamant that something wasn't right because I felt "weird". Hopefully you will get an answer soon.

It's definitely all about the boobs.

Hope you are all well. I am transitioning between this thread and the grads because I still can't believe I got a BFP.
