sorry, that makes no sense! should have said ' feel better now I know what's going on'...

wishfulthinking1 · 03/07/2012 17:26

What to do? TEST!!!!
Seriously though winkle I have a ridiculously busy day at work tomorrow so need up get up and going early. If you're testing tomorrow am please do so and post before 7, otherwise I'll have to wait all day. And thats not fair. And I'm in the depression cave, so you really have to do what say!! :-) I'm not joking

fatas - I feel better today too. Not ready to leave the cave yet- I'm going to hang around until my comedy AF goes. Seriously, I've never seen anything quite like it! I took three of my iron supplement tablets just incase! Bizarrely I'm not all that crampy though, in the past when I've had a heavy period it's also been really painful but I'm only really getting cramps at night so atleast that's something!

kitty- you're so right. Obviously I would rather be pg, but the intensity of this period clearly shows that I'm not 'back to normal' yet- its a good way of putting a positive spin in my non up-duffed-ness.

Big congratulations to all the BFP! July does seem like a lucky month!

Anyway, winkle, the COD (cave of depression!) -I'm just jealous of everyone having their own post-coital position namesake that I wanted to make up my own acronym!! has chocolate croissants and also pom poms- which I shall wave and begin a chant.....

Test....test...test....

Xxx fx xx

kittykatsforever · 03/07/2012 17:34

Lol, winkle wishful has spoken and I think we should make it a power that if af occurs and bearer is in COD that others must do as told -let it be so!
besides the monitor as good as told you too

Dexidoo · 03/07/2012 17:46

Oh it's all happening isn't it. Congrats to the seemingly many BFP's and hugs to those who need them.

I've got a feeling this is going to be a wtf cycle. I felt so PMS'd on the weekend I was certain I'd be with wishful in the COD munching chocolate croissants but nada. I thought I was about 12 DPO but now I'm doubting whether I have even ov'd. Oh well I'm going to have a Wine

pipsicles · 03/07/2012 17:51

What a lovely idea! I would definitely do that, but I know some are more cautious. If you order some cheapies from amazon, you can get them from Amazon and still have them in time to find out before her birthday, plus you get the joys of testing multiple times 'just to check'! (I've tested four times already! )

Thanks for e congratulations - DH is feeling rather chuffed with himself too - actually this little pea was conceived on his 30th birthday and then it's mine on Friday, so a pretty good pressie all round (understatement of the year!)

NicolaHazel · 03/07/2012 17:51

Congrats to the BFPs :-)

I think my body may be playing games with me, second cycle post-pill. CD14 today and feeling quite periody; low back ache, heavy feeling etc. And when I went to the loo before coming home, spotting. Not that I ever generally get spotting, particularly mid-cycle.

I may soon be out this month :-(

winkle2 · 03/07/2012 18:40

Pipsicles would you mind sharing what days you dtd and OV day? Might be helpful to us girls waiting!

Sorry to hear that she got you puppy :(

Pooley42 · 03/07/2012 18:44

Can I be added to 19 July?

Good luck to all waiting. :)

redstrawberry · 03/07/2012 20:13

:( sorry to hear that nicola I had a few wtf cycles after coming off the pill too. Hope it's not AF spotting but implantation instead. Wt cd are you on?

redstrawberry · 03/07/2012 20:16

Ahh wishful when will you be leaving COD?

NicolaHazel · 03/07/2012 20:19

CD14, red.

Maybe ovulation? OPKs say no, but not sure I trust them as I drink a lot during the day.

Time will tell, no doubt.

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 03/07/2012 20:37

wishful you are very funny for someone camping out in the COD.

Will we have to lure you out with the promise of opks and temperature charts?

lollypopsicle · 03/07/2012 20:51

Loving all the BFP action! Super news for you ladies.

Today I feel hopeful. Feeling crampy and boobs are hurty. A long way to go before I poas though. I imagine tomorrow I will feel the opposite to today. I tend to do that and as AF due date gets closer I flip minute to minute with 'I could be'/ 'I'm not' conversations in my head.

In other news, eating pizza while watching embarrassing bodies was a baaaaad idea!!

redstrawberry · 03/07/2012 21:25

nicola Ah yes spotting is also a sign of OV. Does your CM have any tell tale signs?

[Biscuit] wishful? You won't get any in the COD ;)

NicolaHazel · 03/07/2012 21:32

I'm not really a CM expert, sadly. I have had increased CM today that was mostly quite clear, but I didn't investigate it too closely, or rummage for it!

I really don't think I had this last month, so maybe my body is coming back to life! :-)

redstrawberry · 03/07/2012 21:36

Clear is CM is a good sign of approaching OV :) you are not out yet!!

fatasbutter · 03/07/2012 21:46

Nice try red - I snuck in some chocolate orange cookies to the COD earlier so biscuits won't be enough I'm afraid!! Ha ha!

winkle2 · 03/07/2012 22:12

I've decided I'm going to wait to test girls! I'm going to wait till Saturday.

NicolaHazel · 03/07/2012 22:23

That is awesome willpower, winkle!

winkle2 · 03/07/2012 22:33

I can't afford to waste money on tests! I've wasted so much so far so will just wait it out. Plus I don't feel pregnant and have kind of given up hope its going to happen for me. I know it sounds depressing but it's true :(

OP posts:
WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 03/07/2012 22:46

winkle stay positive. It will happen for you and for most people it is too early to symptom spot.

nicola clear cm sounds like a good sign it is ovulation. Hope you've been dtd.

fatasbutter · 03/07/2012 22:58

winkle When I try to talk myself out of testing early I always say that testing now or in 5 days won't change whether or not you are actually pregnant! never listen tho so will be so impressed if you can resist
Fx for you x

likesoxinbed · 03/07/2012 23:00

Just checking in before I go to bed.

Feeling pretty pants. Horrid headache all day, INCREDIBLY sore boobs, and a crampy stomach. No idea what is going on - been on the pill for so long I have no idea what is 'normal'??!!

Hating the waiting, but nice to share it at least :0)

Congratulations to those with BFPs, I love hearing about them, especially knowing how much they are wanted. Night all XXXXX .

resipsa · 03/07/2012 23:01

Congrats pips! Wow, loadsa BFPs! Winkle I always wait to test. In part it's cause I don't want to give up on the chance of a YES too soon. I was the girl at school who collected her exam results after lunch...
