Morning ladies!
I was really silly this morning and did a test - 5 days early! Don't even have any symptoms or anything to suggest I might be preggers. Obviously was a BFN, but don't feel too bad as I've never POAS before so felt like I was entitled! Won't be doing it again though until AF late.
Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine!

ShaggingWithIntent · 12/04/2011 09:29

Morning Piggy! Love that you just had to POAS so early!! At least by next time you will have mastered that tricky foil opening whilst bouncing around with both excitement and the urgent need to pee!!

Is there an updated list of everybody on the bus?

EsmeWeatherwax · 12/04/2011 11:15

Morning ladies,

piggy if I had any tests in the house I'd be doing one too, 7 days early! Lol. I'm waiting for a ten pack of eBay cheapies to arrive, might have a go then. Symptom spotting like mad too, nearly poked when cleaning out the cats food dish this morning, but then whiskas is never really a bouquet of roses!

swi I would do a list, but am posting from phone, don't know how to copy and paste on it, lol, can barely manage posting at all!

EsmeWeatherwax · 12/04/2011 11:16

Poked? Puked! Damned phone!

Think that is everyone - really sorry if I've missed someone out Blush
Esme and SWI we should have some sort of non-testing pact, as I can see I'm going to waste an awful lot of money over the next few months!!

goingmadtrying · 12/04/2011 11:55

Morning ladies welcome to swi and any other passengers I've missed along the way, I love how the bus is getting so full a few more seats though so jump on board :)

hopefully we will start to see some bfp's soon I've got ewcm again that's a few days now so hopefully that's a lucky sign yes????? My 2ww will be upon me soon so will be joining those of you who are symptom spotting lol

Have a good day :)

ShaggingWithIntent · 12/04/2011 13:09

I'm in on that non testing pact!! Cycle one should be pretty easy to stick to as I will be in india and I can't imagine that I'll be tempted to buy them as much as I will be when I am in the UK (especiaally as I walk past Boots on my way home form the station!!!)

I've got one in my underwear drawer (along with a babgrow that I bought last month.... ) and in theory should be able to test the day after we get back from holiday so........ :)

Hello buggerlugs great name, one of my all time favourite words!

Oh, dunno about the non-testing pact, i'll try, but the eBay cheapies have arrived! I've put them away in a drawer, will make a determined attempt not to open it til Monday at least.

PiggyMad · 12/04/2011 14:20

Esme I'll test with you on Monday if AF hasn't arrived by then Wink

Hi buggerlugs you must have the patience of a saint!

swi I have been 'watching' maternity bundles on ebay Blush Was thinking it would be good to have people in order of AF due date but the first copy and paste took me several attempts! Glad you've done it though Grin

ShaggingWithIntent · 12/04/2011 14:43

Tee Hee! Love the ayou're watching maternity bundles....... I didn't even know such things existed so that's how far behind you I am on these things! Do I need to get on there and start watching too?!?!?

Louiseteacher30 · 12/04/2011 15:44

Afternoon ladies,

Back in Boots today buying the ov. sticks, Im sure there is a cheaper option??!

Should be ready to start BD'ing at the weekend and getting abit obsessed looking for EWCM.
Hope everybody is enjoying the Easter holidays or enjoying the peace and quiet at work!!

Louise

ShaggingWithIntent · 12/04/2011 16:01

Hi Louise

I'm not sure what the best option is for checking ovulation. we were using Persona as contraception so I am going to continue using that but making sure that we SWI on the "red" days that we used to have to avoid! FX it works :)

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 12/04/2011 16:18

Welcome to newbies.

Hey Ladies how are we all?

Non-testing early is proving to be hard, not done it yet and AF is due within 6days. Feeling shattered and was very nauseous last nite (prob a bug tho).

SWI Cakes is asking after you on the other thread :)

PiggyMad · 12/04/2011 16:25

Darcie you're due same day as me. Fingers crossed for us! I don't think this is my month though as don't have anything other than usual pre-af spots and moodiness!

Does anyone here use bbt charting? I don't but not sure whether to think about recording temps.

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 12/04/2011 16:34

Piggy I don't have my usual PMT (I don't think) be able to tell in a couple of days tho. Fingers crossed its not AF hormones and its pg hormones giving you those symptoms :)

I don't chart wouldn't know where to start and tbh don't think i've got the patience lol

CODwidow · 12/04/2011 16:52

Well I'm 2 days late for af but all bfn so no idea what's going on??

EsmeWeatherwax · 12/04/2011 17:28

piggy Monday it is! Fx for two bfp's! God, will need to sit on my hands in the meantime.

Louiseteacher30 · 12/04/2011 17:55

Thanks SWI,
I considered buying a CB fertility monitor and may do if the ovulation sticks and general 'monitoring' of CM doesnt work (I cannot believe I am no longer grossed out by doing this!!)
My last pregnancy was a 'surprise' (mainly to DP but not to me ;-) ) and because I had regular periods it was quite easy to track on a nifty Iphone app that I downloaded. Hoping it happens as easy this time but I know these things don't always work that way, we will certainly be SWI at the weekend!!
Louise

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 12/04/2011 18:13

COD! test again in a couple of days and hopefully your BFP will arrive. :)

DarciesmumandTTC2 · 12/04/2011 18:41

LouiseT I have an app on my iphone which is easy to track my cycle and ov days so hoping its worked for me too.

Darciesmum, mine was called Periodtracker, it was great- we conceived on the day I ovulated, predicted by the tracker, I have been recommending it to all my TTC friends at work! They actually think Im crazy for using devices to help out with the TTC journey- Im not going to admit scrutinising CM and spending more on ovulation sticks that I do on the weekly shop ;-)
