CD 1 today and my last cycle was 34 days which means I'm due to test 6th April.

Anyone fancy joining me?

Oh congratulations backward that's amazing. So happy for you. I want all of you to join me.
hai maybe it's still a bit early? My Internet cheapies weren't as sensitive as my other ones, and didn't get a result until day AF was due. I wouldn't give up hope!
I want to hang around (like a bad smell) and see how you're getting on.. I don't feel like I can 'cross to the other side' yet! Lots of FX all round.

Oh and coffee I think that sometimes,

backwardpossom · 05/04/2012 07:51

It was an internet cheapie, Hai, so going to buy a digital one today to confirm (well hopefully confirm!) x

Hai1988 · 05/04/2012 08:03

Is really annoying as thought today was when af was due, but no af and also bfn.

Have weierd fluttery feeling in tummy by belly button cud this be af on its way?

birdofthenorth · 05/04/2012 08:38

Congrats backward! Great news! Loved the live update Smile

Sorry about the BFN Hai. Hopefully too soon?

I couldn't wait any longer and tested with FR this morning on 9DPO, BFN. Hopefully to early, kicking myself for my impatience! No more symptoms though so could be a real BFN.

Enjoy your anniversary Cookies!

birdofthenorth · 05/04/2012 08:39

Oops that should have been a happy anniversary to Winkle not Cookies, really sorry!

OpenMindedSceptic · 05/04/2012 09:24

backward great news, congratulations!

Also tested this morning - another BFN. Feeling slightly blue to be honest. Just want AF to arrive now (was due 2 days ago) so I can move on.

Congratulations backward and sorry Hai and openminded :( Although you are not out till AF rears her ugly head!

Thanks bird it's my anniversary weekend but just a little too early for my fertile period! Would have been great to get a BFP from bonking on our anniversary!

Question: are your OH's giving up drink while you TTC? I've made hubs cut right back this cycle, he's allowed to drink once a week and then he can have a few beers, not 10. Is that harsh?

Out tonight for a family birthday and no doubt my mother will be asking hubs and I why we havent had a baby yet! (Both my sisters got pregnant in the first year of marriage).

Another one! Congrats backward!! So exciting.

Coffee, I definitely noticed a lot less when we were at it every day.

winkle2, I didn't ask DH to cut back (he doesn't drink much anyway) BUT I have heard stories of other couples who have had success almost as soon as they BOTH cut back or stopped drinking altogether. I hope your mum is a bit more sensitive Sad

mytime777 · 05/04/2012 15:16

Congratulations backwards. Good on u! Another BFP!!
I'm feel quite peculiar lately.
Aside from having very sore boobs, I've had a couple of dizzy spells! I also didn't eat my prawns in my dinner last night as they were making me feel quite queezy- my oh ate them instead and today I am ridiculously so tired. I never ever power nap yet this week ive had to have 2 sneeky naps and all I can do is count down the clock until 4:00 when I can snooze!! I am praying that it's all due to a little bean starting the havoc but who knows. All I know is it's got to be this or I'm getting Ill!! Hope not!! Sad
Ive got 2 days until af due but normally has slight spotting 2 days before and so far (touch wood) I haven't. Smile

Good luck to those testing tomorrow x

CODwidow · 05/04/2012 19:55

Hi, I've been lurking quietly but after bfn yesterday I got my bfp today! Just wanted to give hope to anyone poas early !

Hai1988 · 05/04/2012 20:12

Congratz codwidow :)

Still no sign of af here, will test again monday if still no sign

backwardpossom · 05/04/2012 20:20

Congrats CODwidow

Am now wondering if I imagined that line... DH thinks I'm crazy. He says he saw it... Have a digital and will use it in the morning!

OpenMindedSceptic · 05/04/2012 20:25

CODwidow that's great, congratulations!

I had to stop myself buying any more tests today (although I also checked that the local Boots store is open tomorrow so will probably buy one then Grin )

EmpireBiscuit · 05/04/2012 20:37

CODwidow · 05/04/2012 22:05

Ive been quietly looking at the pregnancy threads also. I showed my dh and best friend this morning so I know I wasn't imagining things but I know what you mean hard to believe at this stage :)

I am 6dpo and still get funny pulling sensations in my lower tummy every now and then. No sore boobs, no nausea but I now seem to have a stupid cold :( spent all day yesterday sneezing and coughing! And im all blocked up! Lol A friend mentioned to me this can be an early pg symptom but I'm not so sure, what do you guys think? X

mytime777 · 06/04/2012 08:28
