Anyone else on CD1 who wants to join me?

OMG!!!!!!!!!

Got home this evening, and decided on a whim to do my free CBD test..thinking, let's just get it out my system, do the test, and then not buy another one until after the w/e.

So, did the test (having had a wee an hour before hand) and remember that this is not FMU or anything and....

BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Am already worried (dammit, am not even 4 weeks and yet I know) given I had a mc last time...so figure I might lurk on the knicker checkers thread and hang out here for a bit longer if that's ok?

BABY DUST FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!!

PS - if this all goes tits up and I get AF anyway (a real possibility seeing as I know so early) remind me that this at least shows that I can get PG after the mc will you......

Well I've only just starting investigating CM this cycle, so it is always possible that what I think is EWCM is not - I thought it had arrived on Thurs, then over the next couple of days, realised it wasn't as I kept checking and seeing the changes (sorry if TMI !! I figure we'll just keep BD'ing for a few days unless I get unmistakeable OV pains, just in case

DP seems to be quite enjoying the new regime anyway

Hi Guys, Just caught up on your posts. I'm loving being part of this thread feel like it's a little club and we catch up everyday, cool. I am totally crap at spotting the OV symptons. Last time we just BD every other day. I haven't got the energy this time,, as have a LO now, give me some tips and things to look out for. I am having stomach aches, feeling tired and AF like pains. But I have had these for a couple of weeks.

Golly - the pressure's on me now...Am actually starting to worry about getting a BFP now after my mc in June as I am sure I'll be a complete nutcase about it until/if I see a waving little bean at 12 weeks (and actually after that as well)....

Hello everyone,

Yes Sparky in laws can be very helpful at times but i did manage to get away with "just tell me if you're ever planning on having any" and that's pretty good! No pressure of course
my DH keeps saying things like "just don't keep on or you'll spoil the suprise when we do start trying" not being obvious at all of course.

On another note, ive started to symptom spot too. Am feeling very bloated today and have a swollen lower abdomen as a result, although probably eaten too much!
Ooh Sparky i hope you get a BFP very soon, hopefully we will all follow suit! When do you plan on testing?

And Nelix im impressed that you know when your most fertile days are almost exactly, im so rubbish at spotting that sort of thing.

Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone this month!

How excting we are all starting to symptom spot!!! sparky you are our offical first, therefore you have to set the precedent! obviously you'll have a BFP with that pressure! When will you test?

I have decided that because i have so many other things going on (poss cyst etc) i wouldn't know the difference between symptoms for the tummy problems i've bee having or new ones. BUT i have felt some tightening and mild cramps in my tummy but of course not sure it's related to the tummy thing or not. So if AF does not arrive on CD26 i will begin to get mildy excited but not before!

jools your weekend sounds excellent, who was the elvis tribute? my BIL runs an entertainments agency and has a brilliant Elvis on his books (and WHAM but that's another thread!)

How is everyone else? nelix will you be doing the deed today? how exciting!!

Morning all ! I hope you all had good weekends and didn't get too damp yesterday ? We had friends over, so Tapas, followed by an Elvis night in our local, a lazy Sunday morning, out for a yummy roast lunch and then hit the gym Sunday evening - killer spinning class and my legs don't feel like they belong to me today !

CD12 for me, and day 4 of fertile CM (have managed the requisite BD every 48 hours in that time ) - I've not monitored CM before so have no idea how many days of it to expect before Ov - last month, I ovulated very early morning on CD16 - not sure of other months, and Fertility Friend is predicting Ovulation any day from today onwards.

I occasionally catch my mind wandering and symtom spotting [blush} - even though I am pretty sure there is no egg yet - have had stomach cramps Thurs / Fri evening and at odd times over the weekend but am wondering if that is pulled muscles from too much gym activity !

Need to get a grip, keep busy and resolutely NOT symptom spot or even think about buying a test for another 19 days

OK I need to start sitting on my hands....realised that I can test from today......eeek (although have no symptoms at all to speak of, so probably won't!)

Evening ladies. Hope you've all had fab weekends

Wanabe I'm CD19 too, so looks like we might be on the 2WW together although am pretty sure i havent ovulated yet this month as my cycles all over the place at the mo

really only 5 days to testing? ! deanychip, when are you planning on doing it?

Must be a housewifey day today...I did some baking

wanabe inlaw's can be so 'helpful' sometimes can't they Actually, mine are pretty good, but there are times I have to bite my tongue!!

Hey Heeby, im not sure because im only on CD19!! hope not AF but wouldn't suprise me as my cycles have been very erratic lately.
I'm impressed that you even have your DD's routine sorted so X factor isn't interrupted, impressive!!
We have the in-law's down this evening so best behaviour on our part, and no-one knows we are "tryin" so having to keep shtum! Although my dear mum-in-law is very insistive that she has a grandchild soon, no pressure! sometimes feel like telling her just to shut her up (in a nice way) but i'd never hear the end of it then and can do without the added stress.

I can't add myself to the list unfortunately as im not sure when my AF is due as it's sometime between the 8th and 14th September! plenty of scope for nervously waiting i see! oh well, what will be will be i guess.

Better go help DH prepare for the visit.
Bye all xxx

ps thought i'd add the list, it's all too close now. Does anyone else sometimes wish the first 2 weeks would last longer so you don't have the impending disappointment? no must be positive.....

Hi all,

wannabe if it makes you feel better i too was being all housewifey today, my DH went out this morning so i tidied up and got lunch on for when he got back, he was very wet and muddy so i washed his clothes and made him a nice cuppa after his shower (halo suitably polished now) can't you tell i'm happy after grabbing him yet again last nite despite the 'i'm too tired malarky' .... gosh it's sounds like mh DH never wants to ... that's not true of course, just bad timing this week!

But hey you go girl, every night !!! i'm not sure i could have your stamina girl! well done!. Do you think maybe your pains could be the start of something?? eek?!

I keep thinking that soon we'll all be at THAT time and holding hands tightly. Scary but exciting.

nelix how was te car boot, did you get the rain? we live on the south coast and it is like autumn now!

sparky shame you can't watch the embarrasment that is xfactor, we are sadly addicts and almost plan our DD's day around getting her to bed on time so we can get downstairs to watch it! god how awful. (mental note - must get out more)

I got one of those CB freebees through and yes it's supposed to tell you how many weeks you are, will try it when (if) i feel confident enough to use one.

Hi deeny add yourself to our list if you can, looks like you and sparky are our first ones to test! GOOD LUCK.

Hey everyone! despite our hectic calendar yesterday we still managed some BDing (TMI!) so still on track for every day this cycle! (don't want to leave anything to chance). It's weird but I've been having mini period pains for the last 2 days although nothing today, but AF not due until at least a week monday
Any ideas? or am i just weird?

Hey deanychip sounds hopeful for you! am keeping all my fingers crossed for you. Keep us updated!

And as for the X factor, im totally hooked too!! although why are all the embarrassing ones Welsh??!!! (im welsh so very embarrassing) I missed last nights so it's ITV2 for me tonight, woo hoo! Officially in the sad fan group! the auditions are the funniest part though.

Will check back in later, going to start some lunch for when DH gets in, how house wifey is that? lol
Bye xx

Have you guys been onto the above thread to apply for your free pregnancy tests? By reading the thread it looks like it actually tells you when you concieved

OOOH am excited for you deanychip!!

hi there, not been on here for ages.
i have to wait til next Saturday to test, but i have a good feeling about it.
Feel "different", on the edge of nausea, pains in boobs, tummy feels "odd",
either i am going to have rip roaring D&V due to a bug or.............

OOOHHH fingers crossed!

(been trying for 10 months now )

Why is it that you seem to have the least BD when you most need it?! Sods' law?!

Heeby I'm not allowed to watch the X factor otherwise I would be addicted

Have no symptoms to spot at all this month. Thought my (.)(.) were looking bigger, but I think it was a good bra!! How's everyone else?

Oh no! can you not squeeze in a quickie in the bathroom or something before they arrive? having the pain for longer is weird, could it be just an ovary thing? and not OVing? seems way too early doesn't it. I used to get that pain for an hour or so like you, but this time i've had the pains for weeks which is why my Dr thinks it's a cyst, the pain gets worse as the days go by so not sure if i am OVing even.

Anyone else have a clingy toddler to deal with aswell? argh!! separation anxiety is the best huh!

Still wine is poured and x factor is on later ... bliss (heeby is sad it's official)

x

Have a lovely holiday Funtime

Heeby- I'm not sure at all, as I got the same pain 2 evenings running - very like OV pain, but that only ever happens once, for an hour or two ... Hoping not, as had not managed any BD'ing till last night !

Last cycle, I OV'ed on CD16,and I think CD14 or 15 the one before, so CD9 would be really unusually early ...

I shall just keep BD'ing and hope OV happens later No chance of any activity tonight though - we have friends over and it is asmall house, so i'd be too embarrassed !

Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine

Hope you have a lovely time funtime we hope you find some Lake District baby dust to share when you gt back!

jools are you sure? did you have EWCM? when did you last BD? we were BDing on Tues and haven't since!!! (both of us not well or tired) and by recent dates i should of OV'd on Thursday or Friday .... but i had the EWCM yesterday so might be today even. ARGH, so will get busy tonight too but think i've missed the boat

If in fact i am OVing seeing as i have the OVing pain constantly on my right side now hence the scan, so might not even be OVing at all!

How is everyone else?

Hi all. I'm off on hols now for a week in the Lake District, so I want to see some lovely BFPs when I get back .

Keep that grapefruit juice flowing!
