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.

Congrats starky on entering blog land!

jem you've given this month a bloody good shot! Fx for your bfp! And if not you know you did everything you could Grin

FXSkip · 10/03/2016 15:38

LOL STARKY you're awesome.

Feefeefs · 10/03/2016 15:03

Sorry ipatches  hate those random long cycles.

Starky love "if you can't be nice be vague!" I do this A LOT.

Sucha good timing for your positive! I love that your zebra looks shocked!

Rae thought you were boasting, expecting lot nice knockers! I'm sure they are!

Canters15 · 10/03/2016 14:45

Love the blog!!

Pugmummy87 · 10/03/2016 14:40

Hugh, Doreen and Aggy! I love that autocorrect has inadvertently given us pet names for our reproduction cells/organs!

I was gutted about my scotch egg too. They come from our local butcher and are delicious and have the nice soft/runny egg yolks.

Starky loving the blog! How do I subscribe? Do I have to sign up?

SuchaJem · 10/03/2016 14:30

Aggy! Yes!

That's quite promising pug. Although shame you couldn't enjoy your scotch egg. I bloody love a scotch egg.

starky you are bloody hilarious I look forward to more :)

Pugmummy87 · 10/03/2016 14:12

I meant eggy of course. Clearly my post night shift brain cannot type accurately!

Pugmummy87 · 10/03/2016 14:08

So yesterday at lunch I had to abandon a Stilton and bacon sandwich because I totally went off the taste of the Stilton and today I couldn't finish a scotch egg (with a really delicious runny egg in the middle) because of the egg taste. Trying desperately not to symptom spot as I refuse to believe I could actually be upduffed, but this is most odd for me. I also have very tender tits and sore nipples, but sore nips seems to be a normal pre af symptom for me as I get it every month.

ipatches I'm sorry AF has turned up Flowers, at least though you are now out of the dreaded limbo land you were in for a few days. Have lots of Wine and Chocolate and pates and soft cheese!

Well done on all the banging sucha! Let's hope Hugh has let Doreen through and that aggy has plopped!

LisaTheGreek · 10/03/2016 13:59

Starky, that's amazing!

I haven't been on here in a while (struggling not to be hugging the toilet bowl all the time), and in fact don't think I've even checked into this thread yet.

Anyway, was going to quickly comment to say you should definitely do a blog, and then, hey presto, you've suddenly gone and done it! Very impressed!

I have also subscribed, and can't wait to see what else you do. I'd also recommend checking out Pregnant Chicken (www.pregnantchicken.com/) for inspiration. It's quite fresh, tongue-in-cheek in style, and has that mother-to-god honesty like you find on the MN TTC threads.

Hope it goes well! x

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 13:50

Aww thanks jem I've got a few ideas to write up but I apologise in advance if it's not as funny as you all thought!

In other news, I had a bottle of cider last night from aldi, 4% strawberry and lime pear flavour. It was lovely! Woke up this morning and my tongue is seriously painful! Feels like I've been licking a cactus! Asked my dad why and he just went "sulphites!" So I've done some googling and years of morning after the night out pain has just made sense!

We have really given the DTD a damn good do. And SMEP says keep going for three days after your +OPK. So the show ain't over yet.

Snow that house is amazing! Yellow school busses

Snow that house looks amazing!!

I am eating exceptionally nice knockers today in the hope that Sod's law will kick in and AF will arrive...

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 11:52

snow my uncle lives in the US and he said Target is like Primarks big imposing daddy! Omg that HOUSE! I put on a stone in 5 days from Dunkin' Donuts when we went to NY! You could have rolled me home from the size of me!

starky DWNP! lol Grin if you haven't already signed me up for this blog then please do! This thread takes a lot of reading but never fails to cheer me up Smile

Snowdog37 · 10/03/2016 11:36

I'm waking up at ridonkulous o'clock each morning, thanks to jetlag. But oh my god. Several things. Firstly: TARGET. Google it. It's my new favorite place on earth. You can buy anything there and it's cheap and it's amazing. I told dh our new house needs to be within 5 miles of one. Secondly, I can't tell you how it warms my cockles to see yellow school buses driving around. It's just so twee just like in the movies! Thirdly: Dunkin Donuts. Fourthly: this feels like a holiday still as we are in a long stay apartment hotel type place. Fifthly: I already love several towns (Concord, it's amazing, West Concord, quirkier, Sudbury, very nice...) But the house prices are making my eyes water. Even with the exchange rate they are pretty much out of reach. So with our eyes opened a bit, we have an estate agent looking slightly further afield. Even though I love this house. There's some amazing gorgeous houses here, so different to the southwest uk. It's all actually a good distraction from ttc. Dh is LOVING being "home" and I already feel this is the right move for us. He's the one saying check the schools out before you fall for a house lol. Pretty sure we can only afford a caravan in a trailer park though if these prices are consistent all over!!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 11:14

Hahaha ever that made me giggle with blogs and PR, kat would be excellent! Yep, I'm just setting one up, might take me a little while to tweak it! 😂 pm me your address and I shall send you a bottle in the post! You shouldn't miss out on good hair just because there's no shop near you!

jem tell him statutory raoe is an American legal term and doesn't exist in the UK so he can whistle for it! 😄excellent banging! Well done!

snow how are you our transatlantic buddy!? Take your time to get aclimatised and enjoy it!

Mileymoocow · 10/03/2016 09:09

Hi snow!! Hope all is well and you're settling in quickly.

jem well done! You ride that love length, it belongs to you during fw, not DH.

ever see above. But seriously, hope things are sorted with you and DH soon.

OK, I'm feeling on top of the world lalalalalallaa etc and am grabbing it by the man balls and being productive while I can. Except not really, I'm spending it lying in bed eating cashew nuts and watching Netflix but it's almost the same thing..

Evergreen15 · 10/03/2016 09:00

Jem well done!!!
I am exhausted and I havent started! This is ISW but We havent dtdbyet due to the arguments but I think tonight we will.

HepKestrel · 10/03/2016 08:59

SuchaJem · 10/03/2016 08:54

Evergreen15 · 10/03/2016 08:05
