Thanks to everyone with their patience with my lack of knowledge!!!

Waiting til tomorrow seems like forever away, and even then I still might get BFN. I wish there was a way of just knowing!!!

Boo to AF Olives this month will be your month!!!

Little are you testing tomorrow too?

Still sticking to boob law, they are awful sore, but sometimes I wonder if it's all in my head!! I think I'm slowly going insane from the wait for AF or BFP!!!

Arrrgggghhh!!!!

Lots of positive pee stick vibes to all of you testing in the next few days xx

Morning all

Boo and a huge kicking to all AFs, hope you are all doing OK.

I have read back, but my brain is not working today.

FluffyJawsOfDoom · 20/04/2012 10:44

How long have you been off the pill pip? I found my norks were uber painful (more than when I got my BFP!) for the first 2-3 months after coming off cerazette.

PipIsOutNow · 20/04/2012 11:31

I've been off the pill since January and havent had sore boobs at all until this week Confused Fluffy

I just looked on a site at pregnancy symptoms and one of them is 'feeling pregnant' like u know something is wrong...that's how I feel!!! Very strange!! I have 1 ds (21 months) so know the feeling but I'm still doubting it. The closer the time to POAS comes, the more nervous I feel!!! Eeeek!!!

Anyone else testing tomorrow? xxx

PipIsOutNow · 20/04/2012 12:02

Now I feel crampys like AF is on her way!!! Arrrggghhh!!! This waiting game is so cruel!!!

whimsicalname · 20/04/2012 12:31

Hello everyone. Welcome pip. You've all been chatty!

I'm just popping in briefly. I think I'm about to ov, and Mr Whim has gorn orf for the weekend. We had swi last night, and he'll be back on sunday, but I'm worried we're out for this month.

I'm also particularly worried (actually to the extent that I feel sick) about my oldest boy. I noticed this morning he's pulled loads of hair out at the back of his head. I can't help but think this is entry level self harming, and am desparately concerned about how unhappy / anxious he must be. Poor little mite. We were going into school when I noticed (so I feel totally neglectful too) so I haven't had a chance to talk to him about it.

Sorry, me me me. Anyone doing anything nice for the weekend?

OP posts:
FluffyJawsOfDoom · 20/04/2012 12:34

Is he anxious about anything, whims, exams or anything? It sounds like a nervous tick more than conscious self-harming? Maybe he doesn't realise how much he's pulled out

Oooo sounds promising pip :)

BartletForAmerica · 20/04/2012 13:37

Hello, just making myself comfortable on the new thread.

Welcome, pip. Feel free to update here if you like. It's not over until it's over, so hope AF doesn't arrive. Same for you, Beedle.

Poor mini-whims. As far as I remember, hair pulling in children is often subconscious, rather than deliberate self-harming. Hope you can speak to him about it tonight.

Sorry about AF, Green (never sure how to abbreviate your name - sometimes I go for Olives) but good that you are now ready for the op next week and then your ironic BFP.

Hope MrGeek managed his little job this morning. Poor chap, all these strange women on the internet rooting for him! Grin

Must be on CD10 here. I forgot to do an OPK last night, but we are still SWI EOD. It would just be nice to see a positive one even if it isn't followed by a BFP, just to know that everything is better and back to normal.

TheLittleFriend · 20/04/2012 13:44

bugger bugger. Got af crampy pains now (Snap, pip). Hope neither of us are out.

GenericDietCola · 20/04/2012 13:52

Dammit - I missed Far's norks again! I agree your DH deserves sterm punishment.

Olives sorry re AF. I hope she blooming well gets the message this time - we don't want her sort hanging around us for the next 9 months. Grr.

Beedle I'm losing faith in these pee sticks, they just don't know what they're talking about.

Thanks for the naan bread Solars!

Geek hope DH managed to JIAJ successfully this morning!

Sparks no plans for this weekend really (hurrah) other than SWI here as well. I think I am now allowed to buy a Kindle so I may do that and order The Hunger Games - the film was great, but not read the books yet.

Pip be patient and test tomorrow, but the signs are promising! You won't know Imps' law of boobs yet, but basically:

Sore boobs = preggo
Not sore boobs = preggo
Sore left boob = preggo
Sore right boob = preggo
Sore nips = preggo
Sore side boob = preggo

Hope that clears it up for you!

Oh God Whim that sounds worrying but I agree it is probably subconscious. My eldest Dneph used to twiddle his hair so much that it stood straight upright like a little dreadlock. It was a habit that he did when he felt a bit anxious, but BIL and SIL talked to him about it and cut his hair very short and he's stopped doing it now. He's 10 and this was about 2 years ago. I hope you can sort it out. Re the egg-laying, I think you are still on for this month if you did it last night and on Sunday - the little wrigglers are supposed to last 5 days.

Bartlet I know what you mean re the OPK and I hope you get a BFP soon. I must start doing the ov sticks too - think I am CD9 now. We are doing the sex though, so should be OK.

PipIsOutNow · 20/04/2012 13:52

oh no little this is not good news, but it might be our little bean attaching itself? better than AF making an untimely appearance!!!! when do u POAS?

GenericDietCola · 20/04/2012 13:52

Oh Little and Pip I am brooking for you both.

Hello, I would very much like a positive pee stick please, may I join in? After 2 MCs before DD I'm a bit wary of starting again andpositive thinking sounds like the way forward!

I agree about the hair twiddling possibly being unconscious by the way, when I used to teach and was invigilating exams half the class seemed to do it to a greater or lesser extent.

Solars · 20/04/2012 14:42

Bartlet we're almost cycle buddies, I'm on CD11, have just done an opk and it's negative but will still be starting swi tonight and will continue with EOD if we can, normal cycles I ov on CD17 or 18 but not sure how clomid may effect it this time round, although the 2 cycles I was on clomid a few months ago didn't give me any change in ov day.

Whim that does sound a little worrying, hoping it isn't anything serious though.

We have a practical boring weekend sorting out lots of acculumated junk in the spare room.

Karate chops AF on the way out so she doesn't darken Little & Pips door.

Solars · 20/04/2012 14:44

X-post, hello and welcome Best

BeedleTheBard · 20/04/2012 14:47

BeedleTheBard · 20/04/2012 15:04

whims hope your big boy is OK and its just a habit rather than anything deliberate. And then I hope you manage to break the habit :)

little and pop it ain't over yet

PS I'm still bored and looking at a rainy carpark from my train

BeedleTheBard · 20/04/2012 15:38

BeedleTheBard · 20/04/2012 15:43
