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! It messes with your head and makes you crazy crazier

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. A more lovely, supportive group of ladies you couldn't wish to meet. We've got a few grads sticking around I won't leave and no question is too daft. We have opk experts, cervical mucus management teams and symptom spotters extraudinaire!

Thanks hep yes I think you're right, I've still got a week to go on hols too so probably will hoard the Frer til Tuesday!
46 days is a long time, fx you don't get to 60!!

HepKestrel · 03/07/2016 14:18

Congrats Rosey!

marmite if you tested this morning, I would hold out till tuesday or wednesday. fx for you.

I'm on cd46, and still counting.....
If i get to 60, i'll make a gp appointment I think

woohoo!!!

Our BFP lean season is over? back on a lucky streak!

marmitetoast1 · 03/07/2016 13:49

Congrats Rosey!!

Still no AF here or any further spotting Hmm another bfn on IC this morning. CD38 and therefore now new longest cycle! I have 1 Frer and 1 more IC with me. Should I use Frer with fmu tomorrow or keep it a bit longer??! Never thought I'd need to pack so many preggo tests on holiday!! Surely that half hour or so of spotting on Wednesday night can't have been AF?!

ever I can imagine it must be hard not saying anything, I know I'll find that a nightmare! Not too long to go now, hopefully you can take it easy and be good to yourself, rest and enjoy your little secret for now! Smile

I took a month off being here to try to relax about ttc didn't want to be any more obsessive, was getting a bit over the top. Absolutely convinced this wasn't my month had all the symptoms coming up to af but yesterday and today's test!! Can't quite believe it!! Top two are yesterday's evening wee and bottom two are from fmu today!!

Ema I ended up testing with a cheapie mid cycle last time. Sounded the same as you, I mostly wanted to confirm I was just I'll so I could fully enjoy my comfort glass of wine!

kwick · 02/07/2016 17:59

No holiday - I was just on way back from work trip. Did not get home until past midnight Angry

ever hang in there! Be kind to yourself & get loads of rest

emalady · 02/07/2016 15:53

Jem AF was only 19th June but was short and light. Did have a bfn the day before af. Pretty sure I just need to calm down. Planning on avoiding testing until I'm due again but if I keep feeling a bit sick I might use an Internet cheapie.

SuchaJem · 02/07/2016 14:12

I think I'm 1 DPO. Got a positive OPK yesterday and felt quite crampy later on. We have DTD days 4,8,11,14,15,16...! I am saddle sore but hopefully have given it a good shot. Hoping cycle 7 is lucky for me!

SuchaJem · 02/07/2016 14:10

Greetings inspector, hope AF stays away and this cycle catches you off guard!

Have a lovely holiday kwick.

Fishy if you've done lots DTD in the lead up then you're still in with a good chance

Marmite fx she stays away

Ema when is AF due? Are you testing soon?

emalady · 02/07/2016 11:30

ever Didn't mean that you should be more grateful, it must be really tough to get what you want but not be able to tell anyone and not knowing if you will get to keep it.

HepKestrel · 02/07/2016 11:29

Flowers Ever

try to relax and treat yourself.

Evergreen17 · 02/07/2016 11:08

Ema yes maybe the wine withdrawal is to blame

Evergreen17 · 02/07/2016 11:07

Blush I know I know I know I Am very lucky and I dont want to sound ungrateful, but I think my hormones are all over the place (I have mental health history) and making me unable to appreciate it atm. I also didnt think it would be full of worry for the first 12 weeks and some ladies in my grad thread got bad news this week and all just a bit too much

Also all was a bit shocking after being told I wanst ovulating so just all a bit ConfusedConfused

Wishing lots of luck to the ladies here FlowersFlowersFlowersFlowers

emalady · 02/07/2016 10:56

ever sounds a bit rubbish but not too long until 12 weeks and a scan, just over a cycle for those who are still ttc and you can start to tell people. Very exciting. No wine for you though which is sad.

Evergreen17 · 02/07/2016 10:26

7+3 is a boring place to be Sad
I am exhausted but can't tell people why
Constantly worried (although hearing the heartbeat the other day worked wonders)
Can't shop cute things
Can't eat lots yet as no excuse

Pretty much that

So tired

HepKestrel · 02/07/2016 10:05

fx for you marmite and ema

emalady · 02/07/2016 09:42

skip Yey! That's such good news! Congratulations! So very happy for you. Don't leave us just yet. Need the grads for hope!

Quakers is really nice, not often that you can just sit quietly with people for an hour, very calming.

kwik yoghurt and cheese are not as bad, trying to follow slimming world so limiting the cheese but eat lots of yoghurt anyway, maybe should calm it down post ovulation.

Starting to go a bit mad as last af was light. Feeling a bit sick and had weird low abdominal /vaginal pain sorry tmi starting to wonder if I should test but more likely I got a bit of a bug.

marmitetoast1 · 02/07/2016 08:38

Tiny bit more brown spotting last night, nothing more. Didn't do a test this morning. Maybe will try another one tomorrow if still no AF. I think it probably a false start on the AF though, possibly my horrendously stressful week at work with interview and nightmare unprofessional manager have caused a delay to proceedings!

Wooo for ewcm kav!

Hope your flight is ok and you manage the low stress and good food hep!

I love a good wedding, inspector, hope you don't get wet!!

LovelyFishy · 02/07/2016 08:10

Damn, opk has a definite line today. I was hoping I'd ovulated early as we'd dtd lots in the past few days. Now for the next few days DH and I aren't on compatible shifts, I'll be lucky if I see him till Monday!
