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?

Congratulations cosmo! What lovely news to come back to. I had a feeling it might be a bfp for you.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 06/02/2016 16:06

miley Was wondering about testing at 15 dpo because that would be next Sunday, and valentine's day, but af not due till the 21st, which would be 22 dpo. So its a bit of a conundrum. And i wouldnt get a star! Hmm. Still made from blancmange! Can't tell whether my nips are sore, or if they're just cold. I think I'm probably imagining things to be honest!

Aww harriet sorry you've been poorly, hope you're feeling better soon! And as you say, o the positive side, at least it coincided with af!

feef and irreg I've heard that too, I'm dubious about it!

Good thanks Choco Smile

Hope you're feeling better Harriet Flowers

Totally agree that we deserve a 'happy ending' Irregular! Grin

IrregularCommentary · 06/02/2016 15:38

Hey, if we can spend all month temping and pissing on sticks, they can bloody well concentrate on giving us the 'happy ending'!

Feefeefs · 06/02/2016 15:29

Oh right okay! Makes sense irregualr. Seems like additional pressure!

KatOnATinRo0f · 06/02/2016 15:18

Well that's me out forever then.

IrregularCommentary · 06/02/2016 15:13

Feefs, I think it's referring to the woman having an orgasm. Theory is that the contractions of an orgasm help to suck the jizz up and give it all a bit of a push on its way to where it needs to be.

Feefeefs · 06/02/2016 15:09

I know this sounds silly but what do you mean by good quality sex everblush]?

Congratulations cosmo! Lovely BFP!

KatOnATinRo0f · 06/02/2016 15:07

Miley starky is never testing. She is going to get the biggest starky Star award when she suddenly feels the baby kicking it's way out.

harrietm87 · 06/02/2016 14:53

Hi all just checking in. I've been SO I'll with a tummy bug this week I haven't even managed to read the thread! I'm sure I've missed lots of lols as usual!

At least being ill coincided with AF so haven't missed out any dtd time!

Mileymoocow · 06/02/2016 14:52

Umm starky when are you testing?

Bubbapup89 · 06/02/2016 14:48

Hey guys! It's been a while since I last checked in as we are having a break from trying but are going to start again in 5 weeks!

I can't believe how many of you have fallen pregnant in the last month! Congratulations to you all!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 06/02/2016 14:14

I don't know what's going on with me today but since the moment I woke up I've been made from blancmange! Jelly legs, wobbly balance, shaky hands! I don't feel ill as such, just odd! Hope I'm not getting a cold or the mogga! Had a really good night's sleep so I'm not tired. Originally thought I'd just woken up/got up too fast, but I've been awake ages now! Trying to think if I had any msg or caffeine yesterday that would make me feel like this because it's the only thing I can think of that would make me wobbly.

Cd 24, 7dpo, creamy cm, roll on 2ww...

Mileymoocow · 06/02/2016 13:47

first I had lots of creamy cm, tender boobs, tiny bit of thrush, tired at about 2pm every day and a few others Smile

choc I've done a few haha, it's absolutely mental how quickly the line comes up and how thick and purple teehee it is.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 06/02/2016 12:35

Awww *co5mo! CONGRATULATIONS! ! SO pleased for you! What a lovely Saturday surprise!

kat I know what you mean! But I'm staying positive for you, I have all my fx!

My eyeballs seems to be struggling to focus today ! Blurry reading! Will have to come back to it later!

KatOnATinRo0f · 06/02/2016 11:44

Thanks everyone.... That brought a little tear to my eye... You all have such faith! But I'm 99.9% convinced I'm not pregnant (about as convinced as I was when I was on the pill.. U know there was always that "hmm well sometimes it doesn't work!" Feeling. No need for that obv, haha!!

Chocaholic88 · 06/02/2016 11:31

Thanks elle hope you're doing on my lovely (hugs)

miley I have zero CM... like none... mental right?! If you have any left, do an opk with wee at any time of the day, no holding etc. It's insane hahaha :)

Kwick709 · 06/02/2016 11:15

wow only on page 19..

Kat not sure if I answered you. I had a hysteroscopy on Tuesday as the 3D scan I had last Friday in prep for IVF showed an uneven lining in my uterus cavity which can impact implantation. I had the op (under general) and then went home - had bleeding and major period like pain (which I could only take paracetomol for) - it cleared up on Weds, on Thursday I flew off to Paris for a work meeting and very very under the weather and nearly anhilitated work colleagues due to my bad mood...
BTW they found nothing untoward in the hysteroscopy... but my recent bloods have detected a thyroid issue so have to start medication for that. If you shake me I rattle.

LillianFullStop · 06/02/2016 10:53

Wow congrats Co5mo!!! So happy for you and only Cycle #2! The lucky thread indeed!!!

Waiting to hear about your test tomorrow kat !

first I have no symptoms to speak of but the just in case thoughts are creeping in (sticking to 1 coffee a day, minimal alcomool, pregnancy vitamins)... quite sure I'm not PG and DH has even booked us on a cheeky weekend away on my FW (aka juicy week) for Cycle 3. But I'll test anyway because I like pi$$ing on money and besides I got WAY too overexcited in Cycle #1 so I have a FRER and 3 CB tests in the bathroom waiting to be peed on.

This whole TTC has got my logic and sense out the window and is turning me into a crazy person!

IrregularCommentary · 06/02/2016 10:42

Woohoo! Congratulations Co5mo! Flowers

ElleSarcasmo · 06/02/2016 10:42

LOL at your OH going in to work to escape your farts Miley! 😂

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 10:42

miley what were your symptoms?

ElleSarcasmo · 06/02/2016 10:41

Kat you deffo deserve it! Fx for you testing tomorrow 🍀

Lara I am CD 11, had some EWCM yesterday. Have dtd today and trying to impress on DH the importance of daily dtd for the next few days...romantic! I'd probably have a better hit rate if I just dressed up in something sexy!

Choco nice to see you! Glad your boobs are feeling better!

Jamjar we haven't tried preseed but the applicator sounds like a faff, is it a faff?

Mileymoocow · 06/02/2016 10:37

co5mo you had the exact same symptoms as me so I had a sneaky suspicion Wink

elle it was absolutely hilarious I won't lie. Also, no more pickled Cabbage but I did have a curry last night. It's less than pleasant OH has gone into work on last minute overtime and I'm sure it's because of me

kat I'm soooooo excited for you to test tomorrow!!! I have everything crossed! This is one bloody lucky thread so I have high hopes for 100% by October.

So my mothercare delivery has arrived. Yay!

Hi choc! You sound 10 weeks mate. I haven't had a lot of nausea yet and my boobs have stopped hurting already. I wish I had a bit more symptom wise so it felt more real I have a lot of cm though, like loads.

firstgo1984 · 06/02/2016 10:30

kat i may not have even ovulated, but speaking to gp on the phone that day too so they will want to know i have tested this (long) cycle
