Hugh enjoys ISW and his love affair with Doreen. He watches out for skittle tits and weepyitis. Mrs Arseholey Fucknut (Af) shows up when you least want her but brings wine and soft cheese as a consolation prize.

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 you're pregnant in the tww That is paramount!

We don't get a lot of baby dust in these here parts. We want a fanny full of determined Doreen, not unicorn farts and gnome tears with extra sparkle. We've been going a while now so the novelty has somewhat worn off and we're slightly battle scarred and bruised in the cervix area.

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

When you post stats, add your predicted test/af date. We are currently running at about 49% pregnant with the grads thread over in ante-natal which we all hope to join soon.

Morning! starky congrats that's amazing! I missed so much in one day! really wanted you to test because I love seeing people's bfp pics.

I think I am 2 or 3 dpo despite clue predicting I'd ov yesterday this month. But I'm only basing this on cm so could be way out. DH said on some ways he'd rather I wasn't upduffed this month because whilst he would be excited it doesn't feel real yet and he wants some more time to get used to the idea. So 2ww suddenly feels less pressure either way.

KatOnATinRo0f · 20/03/2016 08:41

Lol at imagining trying to explain our SP to a random non-believer!!

Hope you're feeling better soon ever!

I am back to uk later this evening around 11pm and straight to bed I think, as work on Monday. I unfortunately have let the poor bus register lapse so I will need some help to get it up and running again but may not get a chance to do that until Wednesday.... I haven't kept up to date with people's dates as I haven't read everything (not everywhere has wifi here... What is wrong with this country!!!) so may need to get new dads from lots of you!!

Kwick709 · 20/03/2016 08:15

confused I think it is good if you have shorter cycles - less time to wait for chukka-chukka time :)

Kwick709 · 20/03/2016 08:13

ever keep warm, drink plenty of fluids and watch copious amounts of tv Flowers

ni yes I am still stabbing myself daily - one in the bum area, one on tummy. I am black and blue.

starky when you said no symptoms except smell - did you mean your dh's sense of smell? Grin

Evergreen15 · 20/03/2016 07:44

Bah bah baaaaaaaah
My fever has gone up and I am sooooo bored of being in bed Angry that I went and poas
Not even an opk
Bah
Why? Dunno. 9dpo and FRER came out BFN.I didnt want to test until AF due in two days, but I am going nuts with the fever Envy
No starky Star for me and an expensive FRER test wasted Envy
Confused sorry AF got you. I might join you in a couple of days. My cycles are getting shorter as well Confused

Confusedcat1 · 20/03/2016 07:25

Aunt fuckface got me, so I need a new ticket please kat and will test on 16th March. Looks like I'm on a 26 day cycle regularly. Is that a bad thing?

Feefeefs · 20/03/2016 01:55

Hi sucha having a wonderful holiday and ISWGrinBlush back to earth tomorrow! For TWW otherwise know as SP (Schrödinger's pregnancy).

How are you?

Ni4444 · 19/03/2016 23:02

I've missed a bit the last few days but love to all.

Kwick good to hear from you! You still injecting?

Ever sorry you're feeling so poorly Flowers
And Pug youve been waiting so long...I am crossing all my fingers and toes for you!

I'm CD15. O day should be CD18/19 but only just started checking opk and temp today so may have missed it-hope not! Just trying to chill too and reignite some passion with the OH just for the enjoyment of it with the potential of a bean quite welcome too of course!

Ni4444 · 19/03/2016 22:58

Arghhhhhh STARKY DIREWOLF YOU'RE UP THE DUFF!!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!!!! You did it!!! 👍👏🎆🎉🎇👣😁😁😁😁😁and of course Star Star Starky is pregnant!!

I knew it Stark!! Every time you were saying there was no hope cos of DH training I was thinking "oh I don't know...!" Hooray!!!... Now me and the oldies just need to bloody join you!! So chuffed for you love. How did DH take it?!

Evergreen15 · 19/03/2016 21:35

Kwick I just came back from hospital. Doctor said I have a "proper fever" and probably chest infection and has given me amoxicillin. I just took my temperature and it is still going up.
Jem maybe I should have explain the Schrodinger pregnancy to her.
Pug I love couch to 5k Smile
I feel like crap and that if an egg found a little swimmer this month I probably cooked them with my high temperatures

Pugmummy87 · 19/03/2016 20:33

No need to apologise starky , I can only imagine what a whirlwind of emotions you must be feeling at the moment.

I'm going to repeat Kwick's positive fertility mantra every day this cycle.
Downloaded couch to 5K app.
Fridge full of healthy food.
So currently stuffing my face with chocolate to get rid of it and start afresh tomorrow.

Jamjar12 · 19/03/2016 20:04

Starky, the response from Ovia when you change it is the most anticlimactic sentence ever! After all the enthusiasm and fake positivity she gives all the way through TTC, I expected some sort of fanfare/parade... Nope. Kind of made me laugh!

vixarooni · 19/03/2016 20:01

Aw congratulations starky so amazingly awesome :D

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/03/2016 19:54

I'm sorry, I'm being absolutely rubbish today! I'm not being helpful or supportive and I feel terrible! I can't concentrate at all.

But I am mentally doing positive things for you all in my brain!

I can't change ovia fertility to pregnancy because im scared I'll jinx this now. And the minute I accept it, it will fall out, this is infinitely worse than the tww you guys!

Hug confused Flowers

Hello feef how are you getting on?

Hehe at your health visitor chat ever :) "yep I'm pregnant for two weeks every month in fact"

HepKestrel · 19/03/2016 19:40

Flowers cat. It could still be IB

Kwick709 · 19/03/2016 19:33

Just repeat after me confusedcat "I am fertile and healthy. I am very soon to get upduffed. I am in perfect time." Wink

Confusedcat1 · 19/03/2016 18:38

Whoop whoop starky bloody awesome! Pmd u this morning in case you think I had a delayed response 😉 please don't leave me though!

I'm feeling a bit blue. Had Brown spotting at 9dpo, foolishly hoped it could be IB. Now at 11dpo I had a bit more. So I guess af is about to rock up. Feeling like Mrs Infertile Sad

Kwick709 · 19/03/2016 18:06

ever did you see a doctor? I hope you are feeling better Flowers

Feefeefs · 19/03/2016 16:54

Oh my god starky! So exciting! Sorry haven't manage to catch up fully! Wooo

Evergreen15 · 19/03/2016 15:00

Snow congrats on the positive Smile
Get on with ISW
I just spoke to 111 and my mum was right and I need to speak to a doctor Sad I feel so sick and the fever is back.
The health advisor asked me "are you pregnant or do you think you might be?" I said "Every 2ww I think I am"Confused

Pugmummy87 · 19/03/2016 14:48

Omg Starky I am soooo happy for you! Your DH has an amazing sense of smell!
I am crossing everything that it is a sticky bean and it is very normal to feel period like cramps in early pregnancy as everything is stretching. Please tell us how your DH reacted?

Kwick you must be next to test now?

Snowdog37 · 19/03/2016 14:47

STARKY omg!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!! You are upduffed!!!!!!! I'm so happy for you I nearly burst into tears!!!! 🎉💐🎉💐🎉💐💐💐🎉🎉

Snowdog37 · 19/03/2016 14:46

Ooh I had my very first glaringly clear positive opk!!!! I started using the clear blue digital on Thursday. Nada until very late last night when I got a flashy smily and today I got a solid smily! I'm so chuffed to bits as I never got a proper positive on the Ic's. So tonight and tomorrow the dh is on a dtd mission, hopefully with my tubes flushed it'll be a lucky month! Although my thyroid level might still be too high but at least I'm on meds. Have lost 4lbs since starting the meds a week ago! Only another 66 to go if I want my BMI to be 25. Ugh.
Anyhow I'm just so excited to have a peak opk and lots of ewcm. If dh wasn't working this weekend (sucky) I'd lock him in the bedroom 😁😄

KatOnATinRo0f · 19/03/2016 14:32

(I had a hundred of those stars but they didn't all come out :(... I won't try again and clog everyone's feed up with stars. But Starx100 for stark)
