Hi Popcorn glad your travel was OK. I have to travel next week for work - boo. I'm going to Switzerland, which sounds glamourous, but in reality I will be in meetings the whole time and not sightseeing. Your symptoms sound strange, can't shed any light on what that might be but of course my first thought was 'pregnant!'

Ooh two votes for implantation!

GenericDietCola · 30/09/2011 10:58

Ooh Baby sorry about the BFN but let's stick together in assuming we are pregnant unless AF dares to show her face properly (and she'd better not). I, too, am fat and spotty i.e. preggo. Enjoy your course!

Biscuitsandtea · 30/09/2011 11:00

Baby - agree with Cake and Generic - fat and spotty = pregnant - I am living proof of this - therefore it must be true

QED

Generic - am watching with bated breath. Although I find it very thoughtless of you to have run low on internet cheapies so we will have to wait until Sunday for your confirmation - honestly woman! Think of our nerves! Wink

BabySade · 30/09/2011 11:10

He he thanks guys it's definitely got nothing to do with the fact I'm fat & spotty this time every month my next door neighbour has just asked if I was sick when I was out in my front garden.

Generic I've got millions of cheapys, canI tempt you with some?! I was thinking I could drop some over Grin

Actually that's just got me thinking about where everyone lives. Can I ask or is that too nosy?! I live in sunny Manchester (well it is for once!)

Btw I'm so pleased my 4 leaf clover emoticon worked. I've got a emoticon app that I will now be showering you all with!

Here's some ?? and ?? for everyone

PopcornMouse · 30/09/2011 11:13

Fat + spotty = pg? Gosh, I've been pg a while then! :o

I'm in Wiltshire, which is very sunny and nice this morning :o)

BabySade · 30/09/2011 11:16

That's what we have been telling you Popcorn pregnancy is practically contagious on this thread ?

Biscuitsandtea · 30/09/2011 11:19

I was pregnant for a good 19-20 months before I found a pee stick to agree with me Popcorn - this 9 month gestation period is rubbish as far as I can see :)

(And if we are just going on fat and spotty I have been pregnant for about 10 years......)

Biscuitsandtea · 30/09/2011 11:20

Baby - I don't get your fancy emoticons - I just get a little square come up instead. Is this because I have a mac?

Biscuitsandtea · 30/09/2011 11:23

Oooh I get them on me iphone though although they are a bit small to see!

farfallarocks · 30/09/2011 11:38

solars good luck today!

baby sorry about the BFN :(

GENERIC YOU ARE KILLING US ALL GET THEY TO A BOOTS PRONTO

dream good luck with the scan today!

GenericDietCola · 30/09/2011 11:52

Oh Baby we are neighbours then!

Right. I am taking action and going to buy a pregnancy test this lunch time so I can POAS tomorrow morning. If it's negative I shall simply refuse to believe it SO THERE!

farfallarocks · 30/09/2011 12:17

popcorn I have no idea, hopefully not too long,l I am getting a letter next week I think. Fingers crossed we get some answers although part of me now worried we are overeacting and 2 early mcs is not such a big deal and we are going into overmedicalised territory etc etc

PopcornMouse · 30/09/2011 12:38
PopcornMouse · 30/09/2011 12:39

Do it generic!

I too am getting little squares instead of smilies, but I'm also mac-based

scarletfingernail · 30/09/2011 12:41

"GO GENERIC GO GENERIC GO GENERIC GO GENERIC GO GENERIC GO"

I don't know what just came over me but I decided I was sick of having a filthy, dusty car interior. So the vacuum came out and I've cleared out the crap. I'm absolutely pooped now and sweating hot. Just off out to collect DS who will no doubt have made some more creative masterpieces that will drop more glitter, leaves and other various pieces of rubbish all of the floor of my car. The other day he came home with a pukka pie box stuck to a ryvita box stuck to a yoghurt pot stuck to a leaf covered in glitter and paint. Hmm

scarletfingernail · 30/09/2011 12:42

Oh and I'm also getting little squares instead of emotions and I'm not on a Mac.

Imps7 · 30/09/2011 12:53

Hello!

Okay, so Generic you had small amounts of bleeding on potentially days 9 & 10 DPO (Weds and Thurs) and nothing since?? You're potentially on 11 DPO?? AF hasn't shown up?? Oh my word, this is exciting. I have everything properly crossed for you.

Sorry for BFN Baby. I read on FF that it may take 19 days or more after SWI to get a BFP on the basis that sperm can survive for 5 days - if you SWI 5 days before OV, then you would still have to wait another 14 days to test. So don't give up hope!

No symptoms here today - my boobs were very very sore last night but much better today (although still quite tender). I have permanent cramping, but I always have permanent cramping. PIAR this morning - BFN and no line whatsoever on the OPK! (I have around 48 OPKs to use up - I bulk-ordered before deciding not to use them after they confused me so much in Cycle 2). AF is due on Sunday to Weds - my LP has fluctuated between 11 and 14 days.

Does anyone else think it's really freaky to be out in this gorgeous weather and see Christmas stuff in the shops??

GenericDietCola · 30/09/2011 13:08

Superdrug sensitive test bought and ready to go but not before Sunday!

Thanks for the cheerleading Scarlet and everyone else who has said it is definitely implantation! I love the description of what your DS made for you!

Imps sore boobs = preggo - you know that. How many dpo are you now? Perhaps we will get our BFPs in sync at the weekend! Agree re lovely weather/Christmas stuff.

ScrambledSmegs · 30/09/2011 13:42

Dammit, Generic, my fingernails are suffering! Your self-control is pretty amazing though Smile.

Baby it ain't over! I'm getting out my pom poms (oo-er) so that BFP will be yours!

Sore boobs, fat & spotty = preggo! Doesn't even have to be all at once.

What are those little squares about then?

TheLittleFriend · 30/09/2011 14:00

I'm really excited for you Generic!!

And you Imps!!

Off to acupuncture soon, will pop back later to let you know how it goes. CD1 now, so there plenty of time for it to work this month.

farfallarocks · 30/09/2011 14:00

Until Sunday (faints) , I can't bear it. I have to live vicariously through your pee sticks this month gals.

popcorn, DH still does not know that my blueberry muffins are not, in actual fact, an old family recipe :)

GenericDietCola · 30/09/2011 14:14

Snort re your blueberry muffins Farfalla!

Good luck Little this is your month.

Right, so not only am I waiting until Sunday, but I will be without internet all weekend - sorry. There's no point checking tonight as I already tested this morning and got BFN. Can't face doing it again tomorrow! Sunday will be the day, but I won't be able to tell you til Monday. Just assume it's BFP though!

CakePigeon · 30/09/2011 14:30

Aaargh generic are you doing this to us on purpose?! Hmm I cannot wait that long damn it!

Hurrah for pre mixed baked goods I say Grin

CakePigeon · 30/09/2011 14:31

little sorry AF got you but day 1 of your pregnancy yay! hope acupuncture works wonders for you

PopcornMouse · 30/09/2011 14:31

Omfg generic, that's just cruel, keeping us in suspense for 2 whole days?! or not, because it blatantly will be a BFP
