Boo! That's rediculous! It's not helpful if it constantly changes the goal post!! I'm grrr on your part. Anyway, an on phone, just wanted to quickly say I just realised Hee, your dates have all lined up the way you wanted now, is that right?!

HeeHeeHeeBum · 04/07/2012 09:26

Morning all and thanks for the congrats. I very much hope you all get your bfps asap.
one Yes, my dates do line up, I'm so happy with this :)

wilderumpus · 04/07/2012 12:11

sorry hee am forgetting, how do the dates line up? anyway, glad you are happy and getting used to the idea that you are PREGNANT! :)

boo ignore all fertility dictators and shag anyway until you are fairly sure you are not going to ov!

chuckle I can SEE YOU! hehe, naw, it was just that you came on yest and didn't say congrats to hee so guessed you probs hadn't read the previous thread with her tentative bfp announcement is all :) sorry to terrify you.

am shredded today. sheet. how are you finding it one (pretty sure it was you!)

I am learning italian for me jollies. exciting! Anyone speak italian here?!

I had my appraisal for uni through yesterday and instead of my usual glowing pronouncements (i live off praise and pats on the haed, am a loser... although can't think why else anyone gets into academia) I have phrases about sickness and suspension :( fucking mc. every time i contact uni about being suspended it is like I am crying in their office. is horrible. am not sick now though, oh no, but am grateful for the time to get back into work without vile pressure!

anywho. it's wednesday already! nearly time for me to start shagfest! DH is still veeer grumpy and tired, am getting nervous!

Waiting, very boring, CD 26, is it cramping or my bowels and why don't I know the difference??!!

ChuckleMonster · 04/07/2012 12:43

Phew - my drunken antics are still safe and secret (one of my students came in this morning and said 'I saw a photo of you....' and I nearly cacked my pants but it was a work pic so it was OK) !! I said congrats to Hee on old thread - will say again now though WOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO hee!!! Grin. Lets hope the rest of us join you soon!!! (not that its looking good in chez chuckle this month. I am expecting OV tomorrow and DH is working v v late tonight and will probably be too tired tomorrow Sad)
Well done on all the shredding wilde - I keep meaning to get going on the couch to 5k plan that I downloaded but I just never seem to have the energy to get off the couch.....
Boo you need to ditch ff and get yourself a nice shiny excel file that you can check and recheck and update several times a day. What could be better!!!!
Nice to see you jo / good
Off to brew up now, I read somewhere that one cup of tea a day increases the chance of conception by something percent so am swopping one of my decaf brews a day for a hardcore normal brew!! I should be getting upduffed with triplets at this rate with all these handy hints I am following!!

snickers251 · 04/07/2012 18:10

Ladies I am in need of a back to reality slap!!

Mc was 3 1/2 weeks ago got a - test a week after bleeding stopped, the next bit I'm not proud of and feeling very foolish! I did digital test that I had leftover and it said 1-2 weeks positive so now I'm obsessed thinking I'm of again but I need to be sensible and realise its just left over hormones Sad

Come on slap me Blush

ChuckleMonster · 04/07/2012 18:18

Slap snickers!!

Just popping in quickly to say grapefruit juice....O-M-G.....amazing. Seriously. Amazing. Just off upstairs to position myself in sultry pose (with wine) for when DH gets home, fingers crossed that he's not knackered!!!!!

snickers251 · 04/07/2012 18:21

Thanks chuckle!!

Haha have fun! Xx

wilderumpus · 04/07/2012 18:28

erm... if you had a definite bfn then you are possibly pg again snickers?! now, this is the problem with getting updiffed in the wtf cycle! is it old, or new pg hormones?! but if you definitely got a bfn why would your hormones rise weeks later? Only answers are a) you are pg again; or b) didn't have a clear bfn; or c) you are retaining some placenta and is still giving you pg hormones. prob best to get yoursen to the docs!

our cake got pg in the wtf cycle! she may be able to advise you in some way...

yes I heard about gp juice chuckle! I did eat more citrus one cycle and got lots of ewcm but, ahem, never really have a problem with that anyway! Hmm

good luck lady! 1-2-3... and SEDUCE!

wilderumpus · 04/07/2012 18:30

gp juice?! grapefruit.

grapefruit.

not gp.

OP posts:
ChuckleMonster · 04/07/2012 18:52

Haha GP juice. . . Is that what you need to get a clever baby with bad handwriting??!

snickers251 · 04/07/2012 18:52

I thought it was a negative but starting to doubt myself now 'perhaps I didn't wait long enough for results or look closely enough for faint line?' I can't get to docs till next week as away this weekend so will just have to wait Sad

I wish I hadn't poas now doh x

wilderumpus · 04/07/2012 19:27

chuckle am actually laughing aloud at the thought of everyone on these threads heading off for gp juice!

snickers can you do a test with the same brand as your post-mc bfn to see if the line is now darker than you remember? are you going to pretend you never saw it or do another test tomorrow/day after to see if you get a darker line?! If you thought it was neg is there a reason to doubt it?

hope you are ok, must be quite a headfuck! but woo you might be pg! :)

OP posts:
onemoreforgoodmeasure · 04/07/2012 19:30

Still sitting here waiting, trying not to be neurotic. Copious bfns. If AF is playing games I will be ... did not get bfn previoisly until this time next week. What a b, this waiting part.

wilderumpus · 04/07/2012 19:33

aw one. it is a real bastard. I hate the 2ww and am dreading having another one... and maybe another and another. is utter shite x what dpo are you on?

OP posts:
snickers251 · 04/07/2012 19:47

I think I'm just gonna ignore and wait till next week now (as hard as it might be)

I think I'm actually jealous of your 2ww's! (never thought I'd say that!) just weird not knowing what's going on or how many dpo

But I suppose the wait is just as irritating so hope it passes quickly before ya bfps! Grin xx

onemoreforgoodmeasure · 04/07/2012 21:27

Am trying to keep in mind that I'm just that bit closer to this next step, whatever that is, 11dpo today, CD 26. We had burgers for dinner, at least that might ease my midnight eating fest! Grr, if I'm on a shiny new cycle then I want it to start now!!!

wilderumpus · 05/07/2012 10:27

good luck one! nearly there now... :)

I woke up this morning and am looking much trimmer than I was 10 days ago! been doing the shred for ONE week and am looknig much better already! can't believe my luck :) I so wanted to start a new pregnancy in decent (just decent) shape and if I carry on I really hope that in three weeks i shall be in said shape :) SOOOO want to have one of those lovely pregnancies everyone else has where they have nice legs and live in leggings.

Anyway, shallow but... all part of ttc, getting fit and happy. Oh and tmi but DH jumped mah bones last night with the question 'is it time to start baby making yet?', even after a hard, hard day at work so am very encouraged that we might really give this month a good shot!

sorry that was quite a brain dump.

Am meant to be working today but the childminder is ill so am looking after DS today instead. am most unprepared, I thought I was going to have a nice sit-down day and instead I am a fireman pole Hmm and general dogsbody... eek!

OP posts:
ChuckleMonster · 05/07/2012 17:21

Fingers crossed you will be our next bfp one!!

Well done on all this shredding wilde. I amgetting depressed at my ever expanding arse. I know its my own fault but icant motivate myself to sort it out. I bought so.e jeans at the weekend and had to go up a size :(

HeeHeeHeeBum · 05/07/2012 18:29

Hi all. Getting a bit worried as my back hurts and I keep having cramps. I just got a really painful one :( I've not called the doctor yet as I want to wait a couple of weeks to make sure it sticks. I feel a bit overwhelmed.

wild The dates line up such that I will have a scan before my due date, my due date will be before the mc happened and the conception cycle is DH and I's 10 year anniversary.

Sounds like your DH is on board for this month, yay!

one fingers crossed :)

snickers Get to the docs, you could be pg again, how exciting!

chuckle I feel your pain. I seem to have crept up a size since the mc and haven't quite motivated myself to do anything.

boo Has fertility friend made any sense yet?

wilderumpus · 05/07/2012 19:08

hugs hee. Is the cramping all the time or just here and there? Could be anything x I totally understand about not rushing to the drs, I won't either, although saying that it was good I went when I was four weeks last time because she noticed straight away my pg didn't sound right.

I put on half a stone after the mc and only got myself motivated to sort myself out last week. Am not losing weight though, with finishing the PhD I am allowed to eat whatever gets me through it and will lose weight after (unless I am pg in which case am also allowed to eat what i want as I am pg!) is nice to see muscle tone instead of flab on my thighs though.

uh oh thunder, better go check DS is ok - it'll be his first thunder since he became sentient!

OP posts:
snickers251 · 05/07/2012 20:12

Docs appt made for next week, still getting faint positives (no darker tho) and now very sore boobs but have convinced myself it's probably just my af due!

Oh hee I know exactly how you feel i would be the same but if your worried it can't hurt to go docs, am sure they would understand! Xx

wilderumpus · 05/07/2012 21:10

I bet you are pg snickers!

OP posts:
onemoreforgoodmeasure · 05/07/2012 22:20

Well done Wild on such quick results! Although I don't like excercise I do wish I'd lost the fat I gained when pg.

Hee, how are you feeling now? The hand holding is still here.

Snickers!!! Wow!!! Fx.

Mmm Chuckle, a dinner after my own heart!

And, wait for it, yes in fact there is STILL no news here. Of my last 15 periods only 1/3 have lasted as long as this and if AF doesn't come tomorrow then only one cycle will have been as longer. BUT I still have plain bfn's. No ammount of squinting or getting into better light will conjour up even the feintist of lines. I don't feel pg or even premenstrual anymore. I've got loads of spots. That's it. Maybe I've got pg with acne?! And the worst is (tmi) I keep running to the loo thinking "aha, that's the af then", only to find cm. Surely something will shift by Sunday!
