eek scream that can't sit still or concentrate on anything feeling is so bad!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

maybebabyR · 18/08/2011 10:10

Wohoooooooooo! Well done Dream Best thing to see when you switch on the computer in the morning. So pleased for you Grin

And Scream Grin Grin Sometimes these BFPs just take a while to show themsleves. When are you testing again?

Welcome Robot Positively glowing already Smile

And well done on the shag Imps Wink

scarletfingernail · 18/08/2011 10:17

OMG it's all happening here.

jaggy you are testing tomorrow? I can't wait to switch on in the morning and read about your BFP.

And Scream? If you can both see it, it is there. I am sooooo close to typing congratulations but don't want to jinx it so will type it tomorrow instead when you confirm. Ooops, I think I did actually just type congratulations. Oh, there I go again Grin

scarletfingernail · 18/08/2011 10:19

Oh yes, scream what Robots said. Get yourself a clearblue digi. They do not lie (apart from the number of weeks but that's a whole other thread) If that says you're preggo, you are definitely preggo.

Imps7 · 18/08/2011 10:24

OMG, seriously, another potential BFP?? This is amazing news! Really, you ladies are amazing!!!

dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:35

scream, you can't get an evaporation line after 2 minutes, you just CAN'T. and you can't get a false positive. Fact. I can't WAIT for tomorrow morning either, ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!! You're so pregnant

It's all happening on this thread Grin

jaggy, timing couldn't be worse, confirms your pregnancy, the pee stick is just for formality Grin

What an exciting few days on this thread.

scarlet, have you worked out your due date from when you think you ov'ed?? If I do it just counting from my last period it's 20th April. is it 38 weeks from when you think you ov'ed? I'd be guessing, totally....

But yes imps, you and all the other wise preggos on this thread were indeed right and the brownish spotting I had on CD26 was indeed an implantation bleed Grin

dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:37

and scarlet, if you want me to try and do it from when i ov'ed i'll have to trawl through the old thread to see where i reported EWCM and that will take me aaaaaaaggggggggeeeeeesssss....

farfallarocks · 18/08/2011 10:41

OMG I don;t log in for 24 hrs and all hell breaks loose!

Dream congratulations! I just knew you were updiffed, had a really strong feeling! And what a marathon shag fest you have had, are you curious as to which one was the successful shag?

imps excellent news on the shag front, nicely done, what day are you?

Welcome to all the new joiners.
I would LOVE a bacon sandwich, cheers (fat off please)
I had a breakfast meeting yesterday and one of the options was a veggie full english made of: Soya bacon (I kid you not), ricotta sausage and soy black pudding. Revolting!

Scream I can't wait for you test again, very good that you had DH to have a look because I sometimes find that I begin to see imaginary lines where I know they are meant to be!

OP posts:
dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:43

scarlet, I told DH as soon as the positive lined showed up- which it did at the same time as the control line, so seconds really. He said 'oh'. He was half asleep i suppose. Then 'are you sure?' looked himself. 'yes thats very positive' Lay back down. Has been totally grumpy about looking after DD for 2 hours while I had a shower sneaked on here had breakfast etc, and is now cutting the hedge. Its all celebration here, what can i say...!!!!!! Think he's just tired Grin. He warming up to the excitement.

Now maybe, get me sorted. Yesterday, after all the talk on it, i forgot my pregnacare conception AGAIN. I have moved them this morning and dosed myself up. on my 6th ever one and thanks for the pom pom effort Grin

I can't stop smiling. Got the inlaws and need to be making a crumble now, i have about 40 min of DD nap left but can't drag myself off this....

And my symptoms so far- weeing in the night- but because i've been up with DD the last 4 nights i just assumed it was that. If she wakes up and i get up i always have a wee anyway, but i've been DESPERATE last few nights. and nausea. was it a couple of nights ago i couldn't finish my tea despite being hungry as I felt sick?? a few other moments like that. Which does not bode well, as i puked my guts up with DD, had to take cyclizine..... but none of that started at all til 6 weeks with her. fingers crossed!!!

dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:46

Scream to really cheer us all up you could buy a CBD and a FRER and then we'll all KNOW Grin but i just have a feeling you are helped by your positive interent cheapie and the cheapies are less sensitive, they need higher levels of HCG i.e. later testing date and further along, to react Grin

dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:47

and hello denyeverything, love the name, put my name on a nice vom bucket, have a nasty feeling i'll be needing it!!!

jaggythistle · 18/08/2011 10:53

if my temp tomorrow is of a similar nature, i will prob cave and do a cheeky 10dpo test, aye.

The excitement is sweeping me along! really hope I'm not a disappointment.

dreamfeeder · 18/08/2011 10:56

jaggy, you will not be a disappointment. This month is YOUR month Grin. And you have Symptoms. Tiredness, and i'm sure you had a couple more...

maybebabyR · 18/08/2011 11:09

Seconding Dream Jaggy This month is THE month Smile

I will remind you tomorrow about folic acid Dream

jenfraggle · 18/08/2011 11:38

I am loving all you preggos on this thread. Well done for finding accurate pee sticks which I'm sure is down to your no brooking, positive thinking.

When AF buggers off goes away, DH won't know what hit him as I have decided that this month IS my month and I am brooking no argument.

scarletfingernail · 18/08/2011 11:42

25th April is calculated from my last period. If I worked it out from when I Ov's it would be 29th April.

dream you must've ov'd much earlier than you said you thought you had. You thought it was CD26 which for you was only 8 days ago right? Plus you said you finished rat smacking CD25. I reckon you must have caught the rat sometime around CD15/16 which would correctly put you ahead of me and make your line stronger on pee stick.

farfallarocks · 18/08/2011 11:43

jen I am with you, I AM TAKING NO PRISONERS

Biscuitsandtea · 18/08/2011 11:52

Good lord - you lot are on a roll!!!! Fingers crossed for your test tomorrow Scream looking pretty flipping positive though!

And Jaggy hoping you have some of he same batch of agreeable pee sticks!

Hello to everyone else - what an exciting day!

NinjaChipmunk · 18/08/2011 12:15

I can't take all this excitement. ANOTHER bfp?????? well done scream!! I'm going to have to eat my lunch before i faint with excitement!

Imps7 · 18/08/2011 12:25

I reckon it's the camping trip. They always say that you should go on holiday to relax and it will happen. Point proven!

Farfalla, OV should be today or tomorrow hopefully. I'm hoping for another shag this evening, but OH was in a right ol' stress this morning so it's not looking likely. 1-2 days prior to OV should be okay though, assuming the swimmers and the egg get on!

NinjaChipmunk · 18/08/2011 12:28

I'm sure you'll be fine imps and then there will be yet another confirmed bfp.

jaggythistle · 18/08/2011 12:31

Ok help me out with some extra strength brooking no argument please.

Feeling a bit too crampy so getting stressed that I actually ovulated earlier than I thought and this is going to be a normal 28-29 day cycle.

It looked on my chart that I ov'd CD19 and I had a +ve ov stick too. Which would mean AF not due till Monday/Tuesday. If I had ov'd CD 16ish as usual AF would be due tomorrow/Saturday.

I have tried to stop thinking so hard about this and failed!

Away to eat lunch and try and calm down. I can't remember being this crampy unless ERTD approaching.

CakePigeon · 18/08/2011 12:36

Crikey I go to work and the whole thread falls preggers! Congrats to all Grin

Fingers crossed for you jaggy have faith in the chart I say, your temp rise can't lie can it? Or can it? Probably not I reckon!

ScreamIfYouWantToGoFaster · 18/08/2011 12:37

TMI warning...
In the spirit of no brooking I'm taking as a GOOD SIGN that I have just tried to eat a banana and it came back up so fast that there was a trail of grossness from the sitting room all the way through to the bathroom (and over the toilet lid!). Poor DH very sweetly cleared it up while I washed my hair, he's looking a bit apprehensive about tomorrow's test!

Jaggy fingers crossed for you tomorrow as well! I'm so so SO hoping we can do a double act like Scarlet and Dream!! The excitement levels are just insane!

Imps fingers crossed today isn't as stressful for your OH as he expects and he comes home in a super horny mood, ahem Well done for smacking that rat last night, your pregnancy is already in full swing!

scarletfingernail · 18/08/2011 12:39

jaggy I had terrible AF cramps over the weekend and Monday and Tuesday of this week. I even had them a bit yesterday the same day that I had my BFP. AF was due for me today, if I hadn't have tested a day early I would have been convinced of AF's visit.

You're still in the game Smile
