Hey girls as we are about to get thrown out of our thread I have started a new one so we can continue manically looking for EWCM, sore (.)(.)s and orange feet whilst chanting 'in with love, out with BFNs'.

Come on over/in

I'm based in North Hampshire, where are you Bucky? How are things going by the way? Is DH home yet?

DG good luck for tomorrow will be thinking of you.

Bucky2007 · 18/10/2007 17:52

Just popping in to say hi. Hope everything goes well at the docs tomorrow dg. I have super sensitive (.)(.)s am starting to believe that they are more sensitive than last month

Am really busy trying to sort out all the insurance/police/security stuff. I keep finding more and more missing .

DG I've been thinking we should maybe have RL lunch when you are at home and anyone else local is invited too of course...It would be nice to put a face(s) to a 'name(s)'? Where is everyone else based?

DG Don't do it! Stay away from the HPT's LOL

digitalgirl · 18/10/2007 16:58

am popping to boots to get some sort of shampoo travel container. m u s t r e s i s t buying more hpts.

pixie04 · 18/10/2007 15:42

Hi SK I love getting a positive on OPK's don't you? It's nice to see what a positive looks like when I keep getting negative HPT's, good luck for your 2ww. I hope you get your BFP x

DG not sure what you could use, I nicked a load of plastic cups from my work's water cooler for OPK testing but I don't know what you could use to take it to the docs. I suppose you need a cup with a lid hmmmm.... not really sure sorry.

spookykitty · 18/10/2007 15:32

CD15 for me so back on the 2ww although got a positive on the ebay opks this morning, same day as last month.

DG - I have a special pee container (up here we call wee pee and wee means small lol) it's a small jug that came with a new iron. much easier to pee into then on the stick IMO. DD1 does ask "Mummy whats that juice?"

Oh and 3 days before I had a BFP with DD1 I dreamt I saw a test with two blue lines, you never know you body knows before you do!!!!

digitalgirl · 18/10/2007 14:20

where does one purchase a wee holder?

pixie04 · 18/10/2007 12:32

DG shall we do the stealth morning wee carrying again? Go on take a sample you know you want to...

digitalgirl · 18/10/2007 11:51

Thanks ladies,
This thread feels like home to me! Anyway, still no symptoms today, but I did have a weird dream last night that I could feel my uterus and fallopian tubes through my skin...was a bit freaky. Could also feel something in the uterus! Was very very strange. I've had a dream like that a few weeks ago, but this was in much more detail. It's obviously affected me a lot more than I thought.

I'm going to ask the doctor about hormone tests, PCOS, and anything else that could cause long cycles (and will take my hpt in with me just in case). Thanks everyone for all the support!

mtw & CPO have also intsructed DH to keep an eye on (.)(.) to let me know if they change in size!

dg x

pixie04 · 18/10/2007 11:16

Digitalgirl Don't let the other threads get to you, I thought that I didn't ovulate on my 71 day cyle but now realise that all the PG symptoms I had were in fact ovulation symptoms as two weeks after those symptoms started AF arrived. You did have an LH surge and you did have ovulation symptoms a few days later which is a good sign. My last cycle was 35 days which is only 5 days shorter than yours and I ovulated. Don't read to much into it. Ask the doc about PCOS and problems with ovulation and push for as many tests as you can because knowing what's going on is always best but don't let other people's non medical opinions get you down! >

PS Google has an evil side so beware. [suspicious emoticon]

07mumstheword · 18/10/2007 08:44

DG Sorry meant to say they should have PG tests there. My first was unplanned and although having done a few home PG tests my now DH wouldn't believe it until I got a piece of paper from the doctor, she was kind enough to do a test for me. So you could save your CB. You could always pop you CB in your handbag & take it to the appt just in case?

07mumstheword · 18/10/2007 08:40

clairepo got partner to look, feel and wobble (.)(.) LOL and he agrees they feel bigger! No idea what this means but at least it's not just my imagination.

DG I wouldn't read too much into things like 40day cycles meaning no ovulation, see what doc says. The internet is great but also so full of stuff that is worng. I hope this new opportunity turns out OK, sound slike you want it so I hope this is your month and he's cool with it, can't you speed process of getting contract along?

MTW I do love the symbol you all use for boobs, makes me laugh everytime, I must be quite childish. I think I must be the only person in world who dreads boobs getting bigger, I seriously wonder if I do get pregnant if I'd get maternity bras in my size. And I hate them being so big and that is heartfelt. I wish i could wear nicer tops. Anyway get DH to check size, my DP noticed mine were bigger with pregnancy before I did!

digitalgirl · 17/10/2007 22:19

wasn't going to test till saturday, but thinking I should probably do one before the docs appt on friday. I don't have any symptoms anymore.
are they likely to have tests at the surgery? I'd rather not waste my CB digital when I know it's going to be a bfn.

07mumstheword · 17/10/2007 22:09

High DG Crossed posts. Could this be a case of sods law? When are you due to test? Could you bank yourself a month if you get a BFN? Hope you don't though! Of course it depends on what you find out during your research and what money he's offering? Sorry to hear you are but you have a doctors appt on Fri so hopefully the medical advice will be different.

07mumstheword · 17/10/2007 21:59

Pixie lol. My DH says I only use him now! He has a very selective memory as we do have the odd "fun" session but there are many more functional ones

Now, I'm CD17 and I'm making up symptoms already my (.)(.) have grown Honestly they feel bigger is this possible so early?? Nothing else yet but I'm sure I'll come up with more imaginary symptoms over the next few days. This 2ww is tough.

I agree about hanging around here I couldn't go away for two weeks, I love reading what everyone's up to!

digitalgirl · 17/10/2007 21:58

So (to be completely OFF topic) I was offered a job in another start-up...but working with a much bigger team and some of those people i've worked with before and they are brilliant. Before I decide, I have to do a bit more research and digging around make sure it is actually what he says it is. Also, waiting to see what money he's offering.

If I'm pg now (highly unlikely) I'll be three months by the time he gets round to offering me a contract...I'll have to tell him.

If I'm not then, god knows how long it'll take and I wouldn't want to turn down a good offer only to spend the next year still TTC.

Am a bit , I read earlier on another thread that if cycles are longer than 40 days then it's highly unlikely that I'm ovulating

Maybe this is why I've been offered a job, fate is trying to ease the pain of FTC

My last cycle was 35 days so I'm going to start BDing this weekend.

Is it just me or do any of you guys not do it just for fun anymore?

DP and I haven't done it just for fun in months.

Maybe that's the problem

Excitable · 17/10/2007 20:02

Hi Cycle Buddy - I am bored of the first week. I had a period that only lasted a day and a half and feel a bit cheated that my body didn't distract me from the boring first week of my cycle like it normally does!

My cycles have both been 28 days since I came off the pill (cue DH saying, well that's what they're supposed to be, isn't it? Like this is a Maths lesson )

BDing starts tonight, now it gets interesting - hooray!

pixie04 · 17/10/2007 19:40

Excitable How ya doing cycle buddy, what are we now CD 7? How long are your cycles normally?

pixie04 · 17/10/2007 19:39

I agree with bucky I'd miss everyone if we had to leave the thread until we'd ovulated.

DG come and tell us the news.
