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 10, 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 plant!! Lovely news, I don't know how you stopped yourself testing for last long though? You have the patience and willpower of a saint!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 09/02/2016 13:14

Mood probably not helped by the fact that I woke myself up twice wailing because of nightmares. Well, I woke Dh up because I was wailing and he had to wake me up to get me to turn over. My poor little Coco has to go to the vets in an hour too, she's got a lump on her face Sad

I'm with you kat woke up feeling very frustrated this morning. I'm on cycle 2, but cycle 1 started right back on the 4th December. And cycle 2 doesn't end for another two weeks. So Its becoming slightly wearing now.

Yay! Congratulations Planet!

Yvonne1986 · 09/02/2016 13:04

Planeteer · 09/02/2016 13:04

KatOnATinRo0f · 09/02/2016 12:57

Planet. Congrats!!! ThanksThanks

Yvonne1986 · 09/02/2016 12:57

Kat I've been ttc for six months but due to really long cycles post pill I'm only on cycle 3 what about you? Xx

KatOnATinRo0f · 09/02/2016 12:53

Ni you're on the list and my new testing buddy!!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 09/02/2016 12:48

Planeteer · 09/02/2016 12:41

Thanks guys. Oh god, I'm on cd76, such haha. Was about to be referred for pcos scans given crazy long cycles.

Getting 3+ weeks is totally unexpected. I thought at the outside it would be a real squinter! Don't know how upduffed I actually am. Oops!

SuchaJem · 09/02/2016 12:38

Amazing! Congrats planet. What cd are you? I think your cycle is quite close to mine - I'm on day 15

Yvonne1986 · 09/02/2016 12:38

Congrats Planeteer that's such great news especially as you were so sure it would be a BFN!!!! Grin

FXSkip · 09/02/2016 12:36

Congratulations Planeteer - so exciting!!!!! Snow have you been prescribed the prog cream? sorry if missed that elsewhere.

Celizabe either I'm afraid, but log it (if you are using FF or Ovia or something) so you can keep track!

celizabe · 09/02/2016 12:31

Congratulations Planeteer, that's fantastic news!!

Was just popping on to see if any of you girls thought super honker spots on chin were a good BFP sign or probably just AF on the way ... I'm due for testing on the 18th- fx!!

Planeteer · 09/02/2016 12:26

Hi all. So this morning this happened...

Super dark line appeared immediately. Can't believe it! Just did a CB digital and got 3+ weeks!!!!

Over the moon and confused and anxious and happy again all at once. Eeeeeeee!!

7dpo here and my boobs have turned into gigantor-norks overnight. Pretty sure it's just the progest cream but dh certainly did a double take Grin. I'm already amply endowed so this progest cream clearly works! Also lots of creamy/watery cm which again is the progest according to Google. It's reassuring actually to have it give such clear effects as it must mean my hormone receptors or whatever the medical term is are working. I don't think I had this much cm last month and I didn't do the cream last month.
Anyhow I'm supposed to be working so I'll catch up with the thread later 😊 Hugs and 🍰 To all!

SuchaJem · 09/02/2016 11:40

I feel sick I feel sick I feel sick!!!

Could it be the nutella banana pancake I just ate Hmm

FXSkip · 09/02/2016 10:49

Also sorry to hear about your near-shart experience Miley, my own phobia overrode my sympathy in my last post!!

Mileymoocow · 09/02/2016 10:48

Also come over to the grads thread! Smile sorry for stepping on toes again

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/antenatal_clubs/2558300-thread-2-ttc-1-grads-sick-bags-at-the-ready?pg=17&order=

skip I think I'm the only one that's suffering it so far. I have a very poncey sensitive stomach so anything sets me off.

Mileymoocow · 09/02/2016 10:45

I'm a big wuss and my OH is terrible with worrying when I have a cold never mind an actual human baby so we're going to the maternity suite at the brand new hospital 15 mins away. I'm excited to give birth at the minute...give me 6 more months though. You get your own room and only 2 people share a bathroom if the ward is full otherwise you get your own. Plus you can fetch your own bedding etc if you like so that's a nice touch.

Congratulations golden! How lovely Grin I have terrible anxiety, too. I'm trying to just take each day as it comes and not think too far ahead at the moment.

FXSkip · 09/02/2016 10:41

Congratulations Pineapple!! Thats great news, and glad also that you took some comfort from our crazy ramblings!!

Miley I knew you'd get the shits. I am dreading it, seriously makes me want to take the pill again, I've got cold sweat about it.

Assuming that I get over my fear of diarrhea and assuming I get a BFP, and have a healthy pregnancy, I want to be squatting for sure, possibly water birth. Lying down on a hospital bed seems so unnatural to me. I was blubbering like a little girl hearing about a syrian woman who gave birth in a tent recently. #weepytits

Feefeefs · 09/02/2016 10:35

Also I think I would prefer a hospital birth. My mum had to have c-sections with the three of us so a bit worried that will be my fate too!
