So the last thread disappeared so here's the deal: I realised it's really annoying to drive yourself mad wondering if you're pg during the 2ww. Newbies welcome!

Thanks queenrollo

I have another question too - what does ERTD stand for?

I am so backwards with this stuff Blush

Evil Red Tide of Doom Grin otherwise known as AF/ aunt flo/ your period.

LisaJayneS · 06/07/2011 16:55

Love it! Well actually, obviously I hate it (AF), but like the nickname!

Thanks

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 16:58

this list should help you out if you are new here!

LisaJayneS · 06/07/2011 17:01

Ah thank you very much - very enlightening! xx

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 17:02

right, better pack up my stuff and go home. Only one more day of work this week hurrah!

LisaJayneS · 06/07/2011 17:07

Have a great evening - and thanks for making me feel so welcome :) x

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 17:11

no problem, and no doubt I'll be back later once ds is in bed and when dp goes out

havealittlefaithbaby · 06/07/2011 19:32

Hi Lisa welcome! I've been ttc for 18 months too (did everyone decide at Christmas/new year too then?!).
Where are you in your cycle?
I'm ?8/?10 dpo futility fiend keeps changing its mind.(Nb if new to Mumsnet FF -futility fiend-- fertility friend is a charting website where you add your fertile data and it calculates when it thinks you ovulated and when your af is due.
My boobs are unusual at present, normally tender and growing but I've got an awful stabbing pain. Working out was a tad painful! Could this be a positive.sign?!

LisaJayneS · 06/07/2011 19:47

Must have been too much Christmas spirit for us all to decide at the same time!

I think I must be at or around the point of ovulation now. I have a Duofertility monitor (yet to be convinced as to whether it was just a HUGE waste of money) and that doesn't seem to think I've ovulated yet but any day around now.

Havealittlefaith - Changes to boobs sounds quite promising - I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. xx

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 21:22

evening
faithbaby i hope your boobs continue to be unusual!
boring evening here, ds in bed, dp out at a sports club barbie. Well I've stuck to my dentists request and eaten a ton of fruit and veg, used the most disgusting mouthwash in the world and an interdental stick which just generally involved me poking myself in the gum with it and making them bleed. bah. And I'm being good and virtuous and taking my multivits. If nothing else, I should at least be super healthy this month and that can't be a bad thing.

boooorrrreeddd

i am so bored without DH here to laugh at. I know i'll be in bed late because I can never get off to sleep when he's not here.

i've been googling. I shouldn't google.....

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 21:33

what have you googled?

havealittlefaithbaby · 06/07/2011 21:40

I was tempted to Google "pregnant breasts feel like poked with pencil'....

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 21:42

why not just google 'unusual boobs' and see what comes up? Grin

queenrollo · 06/07/2011 21:52

Grin i'm certainly not daft enough to google that without a safe search on....

I've been googling hormonal imbalance....

What I need to do is just stop wondering an wait for my blood tests.

But right now i'm having an impatient strop. I think for me at the moment it's the waiting that I hate. I can't just go and have a test done tomorrow, i have to wait for day 21......and that is so frustrating.

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 21:56

what day are you on now, do you have long to wait? And yes, would drive me round the twist.

waiting for a new hosp appt is driving me round the twist. They have till the 15th to give me a new date. I'm sure it would be much quicker all round if there was no 'nhs choose and book'. I could neither choose nor book when I called them!

queenrollo · 06/07/2011 21:59

i'm on day 15 so not so long to wait. I'll have day 2 bloods done in my next cycle, because i am too impatient to wait to get them both done in the same cycle.
I'll be away on day 21 next cycle, will hardly be here at all in august so it would be Sept before I managed it.

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 22:03

best to get them done as you can then otherwise you'll be waiting ages. I'm only on day 3, need to gear up for the shagging marathon once again.

queenrollo · 06/07/2011 22:12

I've cheered up now, it helps to be able to come in here and ramble on.

I may head up to bed with a mug of Horlicks and the laptop to watch a DVD. Now to choose one.....

NinjaChipmunk · 06/07/2011 22:18

choose something with someone you can drool over, esp as dp is not here.

queenrollo · 06/07/2011 22:33

well i do have rather a lot of Johnny Depp films....

havealittlefaithbaby · 06/07/2011 22:44

Cd19 either 11 or 13 dpo! So FF says af due week on Sunday but that would be my longest cycle since coming off the pill!

havealittlefaithbaby · 06/07/2011 22:45

queenrollo my vote is pirates (argh) or retro like Benny and Joon.
