Symptom spotters, tww - ers, slightly hysterical hormone laden ladies! Regs, lurkers, intermittent posters! Our raison d'etre is 'am I pregnant?'

Thread 12. Welcome!

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.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kats stats I have been dubbed the resident piss stick queen and if you don't test, you get a Starky's Star

We don't have rules as such but expect to be talked down from the ledge with kind and well meaning but firm words if you get too hysterical. But most importantly don't convince yourself your pregnant in the tww

Ohhh happy 30th blue so sorry the witch got you. But now you can go out and enjoy your cocktails and dancing with wild abandon!! And think positive, you WILL get pregnant this year!!
I'm 30 on Sunday and we're off for a weekend away for the weekend but no nice cocktails for me anymore! Sad please get merrily drunk on my behalf!

After dreaming about POAS and waking up at the crack of dawn thinking about POAS I got up and did it ShockSmile

I think he does ya know kat like some kind of fanny whiffing sniffer dog! If I hadn't just had a bath when he said it I'd have been concerned, but I was all clean and cocoa oiled

And happy egg-harvesting kwick! Keeping everything crossed for you!!! When do you/we find out if it's successful or is that way down the line?

Stark your DH has a nose for pheromones or something! I think don't use OPKs and just go by DHs nose!

KatOnATinRo0f · 03/03/2016 00:23

Wow what a beautiful butter bean miley! Congrats

Feef... 14 months + 6 off the pill cripes that's a long time. I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse!! I keep thinking "it must be me next month... " But 2 years is ages away!!

miley it was a shock when he did it the first time "babe, you're ovulating...you smell different " and i was sure I just needed a wash or something, but we're on the 3rd go of him guessing now,
I may do an opk tomorrow just to see if he's right! Haha!

I do keep all of y'all in my prayers but I say an extra one for our kwick I want it so badly for you mate, and you've gone through hell and high water, so the way I think of it, an extra little prayer can't hurt!

I'm aware I sound like an evangelical minister right now Grin praise Jesus! 👐 haha! In other news, apparently farted so loud and long last night Dh was surprised I hadn't blown my arse out!

Yay miley!

Fx Kwick

Happy Birthday blue!

Just had a lovely dinner with our friends. They brought their 4 month old with them so I've had a whole evening of cuddles. DH and I are both feeling a bit sad now though. We want our own!

Ni4444 · 02/03/2016 22:05

Ps hello and welcome to Tiny and Abi! 👋

Shattered and snuggling down to sleep here...long week at work! 8dpo, AF due any time from Saturday... continuing to absolutely ignore the whole thing and NOT get hopeful this month! Oh sht..I forgot to eat my 🍍...gets out of bed again just in case. Just going through the motions!

Mileymoocow · 02/03/2016 22:04

kwick I'd pay it twice over to feel the relief I felt! I'm with starky on the extra fx for you, I have a soft spot for you because I sounds like you have to go through uber hell!

blue happy 30th birthday for tomorrow!! Flip af the bird and drink lots of wine until you vomit! I need someone else to vomit to make me feel better

starky lol at your bloodhound hubby 😂 i'll never forget when you told us he sniffed toy and told you you were ovulating. Brilliant. He's certainly useful!

Thanks again ladies. If you zoom in you can see it's massive head which I'm finding hilarious right now. He's been renamed butter bean

Ni4444 · 02/03/2016 21:58

Aw Blue Happy 30th for tomorrow!🎉🎁🎂🍸🍹 I'm sorry about AF, but after all the fear of it I actually had such a great year of celebrations when I was 30. I hope you have a fabulous weekend boozing it up to kick off your year of fun. And I'm crossing my fingers and toes that BFP comes along soon xxx

tinypapertiger · 02/03/2016 21:57

Mmm a vagina bloodhound... sounds sexy! Wink

Oh bluebird happy 30th birthday for tomorrow! Surround yourself with Wine and Cake and don't be glum. It's not over yet - you still have plenty of time. Don't let it get you down. Just think, it would be a pretty tame 30th if you weren't allowed to drink or eat all number of delicious things!

Miley that is a super pic! I'm very excited for you. I hope we all follow your good example very soon.

Pugmummy87 · 02/03/2016 21:50

Oh and Kwick I have everything crossed for you on Friday morning and that you will get your wish. Grin

Pugmummy87 · 02/03/2016 21:45

Awwww Miley that's a beautiful picture of your little bean! Thank you for sharing. Can't imagine how relieved you must feel, I think I would do the same myself tbh to just make sure.

Thanks Jem and Stark. It's hard work organising one, but I can't wait to see her face Saturday. She's had a real tough time to become a mum, 8 miscarriages and this pregnancy has not been easy physically on her either, I wanted to give her a nice evening.

One of my colleagues and former student of mine has just given birth to her 3rd baby today. He is so scrummy!

bluebird3 · 02/03/2016 21:44

Fx crossed for you kwick would love to see you get your well deserved bfp.

feefs thanks for saying about your friend. Gives me some hope as I'm ending cycle 12. Af is about to grace me with her most unwelcome presence. Spotting today to usher her in as always. She's actually going to descend on me fully tomorrow...my 30th birthday. As if turning 30 isn't bad enough I also get the present from hell. Feeling sorry for myself. Sad

Kwick709 · 02/03/2016 21:24

starky what a lovely thing to say... had a little cry... thank you!
Your DH sounds amazing... you are obviously the yin and yang to one another :) Now get shagging!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 02/03/2016 21:17

tiny he's like a weird vagina bloodhound! He can tell when I'm due on from my smell and apparently when I'm ovulating too, he's done it a few times and was spot on last cycle too!

Lovely clear pic of a beautiful little bean miley much loveliness ! Got my fx for all of us here to have lovely little beans soon too! Especially kwick got my fingers crossed mostest for you!

Kwick709 · 02/03/2016 21:15

Miley I think £99 is really reasonable and what a lovely piccy you have :) enjoy being upduffed!

SuchaJem · 02/03/2016 20:59

Great pic miley glad it went well.

Mileymoocow · 02/03/2016 20:43

kwick it was £99 but worth every penny. It was an abdominal one, I was offered an internal but didn't feel we needed it as we'd seen the heartbeat and were assured all was fine. Your stern look definitely worked Wink thanks everyone, we really are over the moon, I'm terrible for worrying so I feel so much pressure lifted now I know things can still go wrong but it's less likely

Thanks for your kind words everyone Flowers
