Hello all waves madly

Well my body decided to be play silly buggers the past couple of months. On my first cycle TTC, no less! AF arrived today, on CD46. HARRUMPH. Har har good joke, ladybits! Angry

But I am very delighted to see her in fact because I means my two months of confusion is over and I can now get cracking on this shiny new cycle!

Who's with me???? This is a glorious Superlux Superbus (the kind you'd see US presidential candidates rolling about in), with all de mod cons (dedicated champers fridge and shiny chrome margarita blender).


Zara1984 - TTC#1, Cycle 2, AF due 24 Feb

So DH says to me last night "How soon can you POAS?" I mean, literally those words. Was v weird!! I asked if he was anxious about it & he said he thought Feb would be a good month for us...

So now I'm wondering if I should POAS tomorrow (the earliest I think I can do it & it actually be a realistic result) or wait until the weekend as I said I would.

I mean, I could have symptoms if I actually looked for them & let myself believe (v sore boobs - I bent over bra-less last night & was in agony! - peeing loads without drinking too much, tired etc.) BUT all of these have a good non-pg explanation.

I hate the 2WW!!!

Glad its not just me Sunshine - we're only month 2 TTC #2 & was ill last month so didn't DTD when my PT app said I was ov'ing so am really hopeful that we DTD at the correct time this time. I can't believe how obsessed I'm getting. It's taking over most of waking thoughts.

I think next month I'll try to stay off MN, which is easier said than done when its on ur phone - as you said Sunshine it helps to know someone is going as bonkers as you!! Really want to try to relax & not count the days next cycle, DTD when we want.

OMG........ I just got a BFP! [GRIN]

Its faintish but its defo there! on a superdrug early one (pink box).

xxxx x xxxx xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx x xxxxx

celebmum · 07/02/2012 09:02

ooh Chunky, test now!!! we have been matching all the way through! AF not due till this weekend but i woke up and i just knew! Smile

piggyboo · 07/02/2012 09:04

oooh congratulations celebmum

i hear the superdrug tests are pretty good. I got a bfaintp on internet cheapy and definate bfps on an asda and a frer.

celebmum · 07/02/2012 09:11

thanks piggy, same to you!! Grin

ive txt DH a pic and he says that he can just make it out but i'd better wait a few days and then test again.. ooh i hope this isnt a false start!

TooMuchRumba79 · 07/02/2012 09:24

oh wow Celebmum!!! congrats!! I'm sure the line will only get stronger by the weekend!!

backwardpossom · 07/02/2012 10:06

Congrats celebmum!!

Hmm, I'm really confused at the moment. I have some symptoms (sore boobs, more CM, wind etc - all symptoms I had with DS), and I had what I thought was AF starting the other day (a few days early) but it was a day and a half of spotting then nothing. Now this isn't an unusual AF for me when I was on the coil... and my coil was only removed last week. We had DTD a few days before the coil was removed and I've just read that sperm can survive up to 5 days in the body. I don't think I could be, but hmm... I know this is daft. Please don't laugh at me! It must be coil-removal related, right? Anyone else have this after their mirena coil was removed?

Chunkychicken · 07/02/2012 13:19

Wow Congrats Celebmum. SOOOOO tempted to test (have 3 superdrug ones in the bathroom cabinet) but I shouldn't.... should I??!!! Best to wait until the morning. Hmm

No idea about your situation backward as never had a coil but I have had spotting from having a smear, so it could be linked to the removal.

FrenchLimeBlossom · 07/02/2012 13:32

OOOh celebmum and piggyboo excellent news! well done! So pleased for you.

Well I've had EWCF this weekend, managed to SWI a couple of times and planning one more today for good luck and then I think it's the 2ww for me. Just really want this to work asap, have been charting and monitoring where I am in the cycle so hopefully we've given ourselves the best chance for the month. Come on body!

Chunky i think you should test...... Smile

celebmum · 07/02/2012 13:33

Ooh chunky you have amazing will power!! I'd have wee'd on em all by now!! Grin

Thanks, I'm excited and nervous, my heads spinning! Just want to get this weekend over and make sure it's a full positive IYSWIM.Smile

My grandad passed away this week.. So happy/sad all over the place!

PrimalChic · 07/02/2012 13:34

Congratulations celebmum!!! A line is a line no matter how fine! Did you have any early symptoms?

I've just bought a card for DH for next week (we don't usually do V day) in case I get a BFP...

Chunkychicken · 07/02/2012 13:50

Ok I caved... Just POAS. Now to sit here like lemon waiting for the inevitable BFN Hmm

Chunkychicken · 07/02/2012 13:59

OMG OMG OMG

BFP!!!!!!

VERY faint but def there.

Shock
celebmum · 07/02/2012 14:02

Aaaaarrgh!!! Chunky!!! I knew it!!!! I had very good feelings for you!!! GrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrinGrin

celebmum · 07/02/2012 14:04

Wow chunky! Congrats!!Grin

Not really primal, I just got up this morning and I knew I was going to get a BFP! Hadn't even been planning on testing! Though thinking back I've been a bit arsey and short tempered of late but put that down to alot going on at the mo. Smile

Chunkychicken · 07/02/2012 14:14

Thanks celebmum I'm glad you knew it - I was ready for disappointment so when I saw the faint pink line I had to run & fetch the packet out of the bin to check which way the line was meant to be... I still can't believe it. Fingers crossed we'll have little 'sticky beans' :) Oh and sorry about your sad news.

PrimalChic I didn't believe I had any real symptoms either but as I said up-thread, anything I had I tried to dismiss. Keeping fingers crossed for you though - not long to wait now though??!!

PrimalChic · 07/02/2012 14:27

chunkychicken congratulations! So pleased for you.

I have everything crossed for joining you ladies on Saturday but if I don't, I'll be dancing til dawn instead of leaving the bar at a sensible time! Silver lining and all that!

Chunkychicken · 07/02/2012 14:40

Exactly PrimalChic - my mum's 60th next weekend, and figured after AF should have left, I could party hard!!! Now I'm Des for the next few months (FX all being well, touch wood etc etc!!!) Make sure its a superdrug one though, they're clearly lucky Wink

DH over the moon, wants to tell someone now but knows we should wait...

Just put my dates into my Happy Pregnancy app (obsessed much?? Blush ) and the due date is my DD 2.5yr point exactly. Fate obviously... Hmm And that was without even trying to fudge the figures and put in AF date differently due to the spotting I had.

So weird thinking it actually happened though, and so quickly!!! I'm a very lucky lady :o

TooMuchRumba79 · 07/02/2012 14:41

Congrats Chunky!!! Im so happy for you both Chunky and celebmum!! (so sorry to hear about your grandad celebmum)
PrimalChic - you're next Wink! Let's keep those BFPs coming ladies!

Who else is going even more crazy with the 2ww now???

backwardpossom · 07/02/2012 14:46

Congrats Chunky!! Grin

Sticklebricksuk · 07/02/2012 15:48

Congrats chunky. I'm due on Thursday but having mad cramps since Sunday but still no AF. Hoping hard it's implantation cramps and not premenstrual ones but time will tell. Sooooo hoping I'm joining the successes on this thread x

Zara1984 · 07/02/2012 15:53

OMG piggyboo, celebmum and chunky!!!!! What is going on here!! I go away 5 minutes and it turns into BFP central!! Congratulations!!!!! So fantastic!

Yes primal, you're next Grin!

11 sleeps till I test.... I need to update my stats actually as ovulation came on time for me (thank you for the heads-up CBFM!).
