I am about to start cycle 5 and wondered if there were any fellow sex pests out there who wanted to join me in regular swi, not so regular poas and plenty of Wine, Biscuit, Brew and [chocolate emoticon].

toddle congrats! Personally I'd focus on the TTC and organise the wedding around that, so long as you aren't after a huge wedding you can definitely organise one quite quickly if you needed to!

weimy aw, bloody af! Have some Wine and un-mumsnetty hug!

I am still spotting, very light today, no sign of AF yet. Have never had 3 days of spotting like this before. Am CD24, last cycle was 27 days and the urge to POAS is getting stronger every day - I just want to know WTF is going on! Still v fatigued, dizzy spells and intermittent nausea..

Oh, and I have a bird stuck in my chimney still :( it had gone all quiet so I thought it had escaped, but it went completely nuts again when I got home this evening. Calling the RSPCA in the morning in the hope they can help get it out somehow!

Carlitawantsababy · 14/06/2011 22:50

trope you still haven't POAS?!? You are one strong woman! Well done! You can test Friday - af due date right?! Grin

babybrain3 · 15/06/2011 07:08

Can't believe you haven't poas yet trope!!! Fx crossed for you when you do!!!

trope · 15/06/2011 09:11

carlita & babybrain - nope, no POAS for me! Have got a test put away in a cupboard, but am pretending it isn't there! Wink Am trying really really hard to be good and only POAS when my AF is actually late! Thanks for fx though - am constantly expecting AF and can't believe i've had 3 days of spotting and no blood. In fact, so far today, no spotting and no blood! My temp has gone back up a little bit (is all over the place this month) and I am still fatigued and nauseous. Part of me thinks that I don't feel like this ever and don't get spotting like this ever, so it must be something, but mostly I just feel like it's my stupid body playing silly games with me! All very odd!

There's also the fact that DP and I are almost certainly only going to have one kid/pregnancy and he really wants to be involved with everything - so we want to POAS when he isn't off at work; Mon-Fri he leaves before 8am each day and doesn't get home till 8pm, or often later (gone 9pm last night) so ideally we want to wait till the weekend. That way we get to spend the day together either commiserating or celebrating, instead of getting the result and him disappearing off on a train to London!

But god yes, I am going crazy with the not knowing! Am off to babysit a friend's kids for her this morning (3yrs and 9 months - so cute!) and am then having lunch with her, so I have a distraction for at least half of today! But tomorrow & friday are stretching out ahead... must make plans!! Perhaps I shall bake things; make positive use of my faffing and nerves!

trope · 15/06/2011 09:22

If anyone fancies attempting to interpret my FF chart for me it's here by the way! As you can see from the overlay, it's gone a bit strange this month - temps leapt up early, but ff still places the ov day in the middle.. as said upthread, i'm not 100% convinced it's got my ovulation date correct... I suspect I may have ovulated 3-4days earlier than it thinks... but (shrugs) who knows?!

Anyways, this time next week I will know one way or the other and I have had far longer waits for things in the past so I shall probably be strong!!!

Lugsie · 15/06/2011 12:24

Ohhh how exciting trope - only a couple of days to go till you know for sure Smile Did you get the bird in the chimney thing sorted out?!

congrats toddle! I agree with others - you can definitely plan a wedding in a few months. We booked ours a year before but that was only so we could guarantee the venue we wanted then save up, we didn't actually do any other planning till quite close to the date.

Welcome freedom Smile

eurochick · 15/06/2011 13:42

trope I'd put you oving earlier than FF too.

trope · 15/06/2011 22:58

lugsie I heard a few movements this morning I thought, but wasn't sure, nothing as dramatic as yesterday. I had to go out today and I haven't heard anything since I got back late this afternoon, so maybe it's finally escaped/died? I'm home tomorrow, so if I hear anything I'll call the RSPCA, but I honestly can't see anyway of getting it out without killing/hurting it (we'd have to saw through the boarding to create a hole to remove it through, but if we do that we'll be sawing into the space behind the boarding, i.e. where the bird is... can't see that ending well... It's all really quite horrid :( Am hoping it's escaped by itself!

eurochick - thanks for looking :) If I did ov earlier, then I'm pretty much at 14dpo now, i.e. AF is due. DP and I have agreed to test on Saturday, instead of Sunday, as I will have gone completely potty by Sunday! If I am pregnant there should be enough HCG to detect by then, so fingers crossed. Have been weirdly tearful this evening, which is usually a day before AF symptom for me, so may all be coming to an abrupt end tomorrow... but on the other hand, the spotting has completely stopped today, I am increasingly nauseous, fatigued and intermittently light headed. Something is definitely not as it usually is... am very very very cautiously optimistic. (So sod's law dictates AF arrives in 3,2 ... )

mememummy · 16/06/2011 00:54

Fingers crossed trope shall be thinking ov ya

babybrain3 · 16/06/2011 07:17

Will be looking forward to hearing the outcome on Saturday trope sounds promising, will have my fx for good news....

babybrain3 · 16/06/2011 07:34

My symptoms seem to have completely disappeared :-(

trope · 16/06/2011 07:44

babybrain fx for you - hopefully it doesn't mean AF is on her way!

well folks, my temp has massively dropped today (way below the coverline) and the cramps are far stronger, so that, plus my tearfulness yesterday, means that I strongly suspect AF is coming today. :(

Which means that my cycle has just been completely borked this month; messy temps, days of spotting, ovulation early (or late, depending on whether me or FF is right) and loads more pre-AF symptoms... just what you want when you are TTC!

Will update my stats when/if AF arrives, but i'm 99% sure i'm out for this month. On to cycle 4!

Carlitawantsababy · 17/06/2011 10:20

Sad trope sorry to hear that.
babybrain they say every pregnancy is different so expect the unexpected!
meme do you normally get sore boobs?
As for me, still waiting for Sunday to test, am really doing it just for fun as don't think I'm pg this cycle but poas will make me feel like I am doing something (apart from reading loads of pregnancy books and apps which I should not be reading yet!)

JamaicanSunshine · 17/06/2011 17:10

hi everyone,

Carlita i meant cycle day 29.
Headaches have been killing me, like this non stop drumming in my brain.
Congratulations Toddle :)
Missed alot of the posts so now i'm kind of confused again. Fathers Day is so close, so close........

Carlitawantsababy · 17/06/2011 19:54

Pah, so much for the testing gang, af arrived 3 days early (totally unheard of) so onto cycle 3 for me. AF due 17 July for when someone updates please! Funny how I was so regular before starting ttc!

weimy · 17/06/2011 22:31

Hi all

Been busy marking exam papers :(

Sorry about AF hitting people meh!!!!

Can I be put in the counting bit when it is updated again? I will give it one more go then I am horse hunting :)

OP posts:
toddle · 17/06/2011 23:23

LMAO... one of the first carlita you are very certainly the first as it hasnt actually happened yet... Think next spring will be the first chance for it finance wise as we already have a lot going on. ill also second you on cycles getting longer since TTC. My cycles have increased by 10 !! days.

freedom i also hope it happens soon. He has been teasing me all week texting me saying about all the things he has been thinking about and it will be really special just for us too :) eeeek.... you think he may just ask monday when he gets back from airport Hmm

babybrain i would attempt to offer you some hinting tips but i can honestly say he raised the subject so saved me the ball ache. Theres been a few times before when ive had suspicions that he would ask but never turned out to be a ring lol.

Well think ive just ovulated or about to... and im pretty gutted that theres pretty much no hope for a BFP this cycle. Dont actually think i could call of TTC right now so maybe we can just continue. Then you call all give me tips on organising the quickest wedding on earth if when we get our bfp :). Even DP text saying he wont be going away without me ever again, so he is never going to miss another little egg wipes tear from laughing Bless him.

Guys im excited for all my fellow gang members testing on sunday. We need some good news!!! Sorry for those who have been got already :(
