Congratulations @northernlass81! Good old frers!

I'm still holding out but hope is fading. I have no signs or symptoms!

SydBound27 · 16/08/2017 11:56

@northernlass congratulations! Wooohoo! How are you feeling?! Flowers

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 11:27

Name change fail obviously!! [ grin]
I will still be tempted to test though as back in Feb the night before I got a bfp I had a silly row with my husband and I got really really angry that angry. It made me think I should take a test as it was so unlike me!

Avis123 · 16/08/2017 11:24

Omg as it was such a massive overreaction I would urge you to test Grin

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 11:21

Don't goad me Grin
We had a row last night bout who turn it as was to annihilate a massive spider. Resulted in me chucking the remote at his head which smashed into a million bits against the wall. Don't know what come over me! I'm not usually violent. I'm still not talking to him!

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 11:07

PO sounds like a sign!Grin

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 11:02

@Ashbeckk, I might crack by tomorrow morning. I remember testing really early with DS and agonising over faint lines. The test expired in October 15 so I know I'll be wasting my time, so I'm going to wait until AF is missed before buying another.

Starting to feel really crap and 'heavy' like AF is on its way. Doesn't help that I'm royally PO with DH right now.

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:58

chook the first is sooo exciting!
2nd for me. I have a ds who just turned 18 months. I had a mc in march and took a break and first cycle of trying again. Only dtd on positive opk day so not holding much hope. I will go all out next month!!

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 10:51

@Ash - Yep, my first, and only 3rd cycle trying. You?

@Uppity - sit on your hands! It's a nightmare, isn't it?

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:49

Oooo I would so use the expired test uppity Grin

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:48

LOL Grin I was the same in feb starting testing too early and wasted a fortune I could have bought myself a small island with!
Is this your first? x

UppityStitch · 16/08/2017 10:48

Congratulations @NorthernLass

I'm getting twitchy too chooklass. I'm off work today and it's taking everything in me not to run to shops or use an expired test I found in a drawer Shock

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 10:45

I'm doing the same this month! Spent a fortune last two months but just got a pack of 12 IC in post. I went to pee really quick this morning to avoid temptation too early!!

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:42

I got loads of ICs though so I don't mind pissing on them Grin
But am not spending another tenner on a frer until I have missed af!

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 10:30

@Ashbeckk yeh, I'd read that somewhere too. Good to know so I don't get my hopes up thinking I'm late when I'm not. X

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:28

I am also holding out till saturday if af doesn't turn up!

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:27

Unicorn fingers crossed it will be a bfp for you x

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 10:27

I want to hold out until Saturday to test, but all the BFPs rolling in are making me twitchy!!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 16/08/2017 10:27

Congratulations @northernlass81 you give me hope, I had MMC at 10weeks in May. Unfortunately cycle 3 for me wasn't successful but will be trying again, onto cycle 4 and hoping for a BFP around 9th September

Ashbeckk · 16/08/2017 10:25

Fantastic northern so happy for you what great news! Hope it all goes smoothly x
Chook if ovulation was 2 days late then af will also be 2 days late as I read somewhere that the luteal phase doesn't change.

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 10:25

@northernlass81 congratulations! Exciting! 😃

Gennz · 16/08/2017 10:20

Fab news northernlass!!!

northernlass81 · 16/08/2017 10:01

eek so it is BFP! Got hold of a first response this morning, but not an early one but still a clear positive. 11 dpo and can't actually believe it. Only our second cycle post mmc at 12 weeks in May. Excited but overwhelmingly apprehensive too. Fingers crossed for all of you still hopeful this month x

Anyone due to test around 18th Aug?
murree · 16/08/2017 09:33

Done a test this morning and was a disappointing negative... AF not due till between Friday and Sunday so not out yet but not holding out much hope. Just don't feel it Sad

Chooklass · 16/08/2017 09:28

@Ashbeckk Think AF due Sunday or Monday, though I ov 2 days later than normal, so not sure if that will make AF 2 days later!
