NC optional but not essential. Create your tag line and describe your outfit in detail. Wanna be BESH superheroes must prove their might by undergoing a gruelling set of tasks completing the BESHtionnaire hidden elsewhere in old threads
Fly on in and make yourself at home in our obviously secret lair :)

Do it! Otherwise you'll just fret. And yay for Frankel! He is awesome.

Yay too for a good scan, dor.

Thanks for your kind words. Feeling a bit better today. Still no actual droid, and temps still above cover line, but negative test this morning. I had a cycle like this a couple of months ago - fecking annoying. If the wee metal bastard is going to show up, I wish he'd just get on with it.

Meanwhile I shall join in with the mass boak. Does pure lurrrrve make anyone else think of Barry White? not that I'm secretly envious of their lurvely shagging, oh no

How long has it been, ferret?

ShredniVashtar · 01/08/2012 21:42

14dpo, by my reckoning. But chart is a bit odd, so might only be 12. Tiny amounts of spotting since Sunday...

Northey · 01/08/2012 21:50

Are we cycle twins this month? Did we work that out before? Assuming I ovulate in the same place as the last two cycles, I'm 14-15 dpo as well. Are you testing again tomorrow?

Northey · 02/08/2012 06:34

Umm. I think I've done it.

Line faintish but definitely there. On way to work with pissy stick in my handbag and an expression of incredulous panic.

FrankelSaysRelax · 02/08/2012 06:54

WHAT??????
Norf, are you saying what I think you're saying???!!!!

[gets nipples tassles ready]

Northey · 02/08/2012 06:58

I think I am, yes :o

FriendofDorothy · 02/08/2012 07:01

Ooooo I need to find my nipple tassels! Hurray!!!!!

In other news I have had a horrible night. Chronic diaharrea and cramps. I feel awful.

FrankelSaysRelax · 02/08/2012 07:03

Fookin fabulous!!!!!

Best news I've had for ages. Well done Norf

Let the dancing commence!

FrankelSaysRelax · 02/08/2012 07:04

Oops, sorry about the illness Dor. Can you take a duvet day?

Northey · 02/08/2012 07:07

Wheeeeee!

Except I am at risk of second ectopic so am trying not to get excited till that can be checked out.

Should I tell AMNH now or wait till I see him in person tomorrow morning?

FriendofDorothy · 02/08/2012 07:07

I am going to try and take the morning off but have to go in this afternoon.

FrankelSaysRelax · 02/08/2012 07:16

Oo tough question Norf. I think if I were in the same situation I'd want to tell him face to face, but am not sure I could stop myself from blurting it out!

Do you qualify for an early scan on the basis of your previous ectopic?

Northey · 02/08/2012 07:21

Yes, i was told to present myself as soon as i thought i was pregnant again. I am going to call GP this morning to sort out an appointment.

That's exactly how I feel, frankster - I want it to be face to face but suspect I will crack this afternoon and send him a stick photo.

LauraPalmer · 02/08/2012 07:26

NORFY!!!

Wahoo!!! How fantastic!

I was in a similar situation when I got my BFP - was on my own for a whole day before seeing TOM. I waited to tell him in person and I'm so glad that I did. It was wonderful to see the look on his face. (It was a bit strange talking to him on the phone the night before though - I kept thinking that our conversation was so trivial to the news I was going to announce the next day.) Smile

Woo hoo norf! Fabulous news :) I would be inclined to do it face to face since its only a day. Easier says than done though!

dor you poor thing Confused make sure you stay hydrated!

WOW norf CONGRATULATIONS. I am running off to be scanned wearing me tassles (that will freak them out properly). YAY

And congrats on wriggly boy as well, dor! Sorry about the shitty night though.

Waves and I'll get my cape so not to get arrested for indecent exposure on my way!

Northey · 02/08/2012 08:35

Thanks everyone. I shall have a think about crossing the PESH threshold later. It seems a bit like tempting fate.

8 years of unprotected sex, 3 years of Metformin, a million blood tests and dildocams, a lap and dye, some drilled ovaries, an ectopic and 3 cycles of Clomid. Oof.

blonderthanred · 02/08/2012 09:19

Oh my blimmin' goodness! What amazing news to wake up to!

I am digging out my nipple tassels, not sure if they're big enough tho. Ohhhh such an exciting day for you, you must be fizzing with the news. Just remember no-one can tell just from your face, even if it feels like they can.

Wooohooo!

queenrollo · 02/08/2012 09:30

So happy for you Norfy but totally understand why you will want to wait to cross the threshold.

KickTheGuru · 02/08/2012 10:45

Oh wow big congratulations!!! YAY! There are BFP's on our thread!! Grin

Awesome news for a Thursday morning. I would bloody send him a stick photo. Bet he will like antsys in pansys!!

eurochick · 02/08/2012 12:15

faif perhaps you need E rather than booze for pure love then?

Hang on a minute, do we have a superhero win??? Norf! Please to be reminding of us to your route to diffige and what magic worked this month? Is this a Clomid win?

Northey · 02/08/2012 12:33

Thanks euro and everyone. Overall route to diffage was as above -

8 years of unprotected sex, 3 years of Metformin, a million blood tests and dildocams, a lap and dye, some drilled ovaries, an ectopic and 3 cycles of Clomid.

This month was Clomid but no metformin, because I forgot to renew my prescription before goin on holiday, and thought fuck it I'll do a cycle without. Then I did the sechs every day for 7 days for what I thought was the crucial period (bearing in mind my previous cycles had, for the first time evah had the same number of days). About a week ago I had the tiniest bit of tinted spotting for 3 days. Then no other symptoms at all until I pissed on a stick this morning. Oh, apart from a constant feeling of wetness. Which naturally I am now constantly interpreting as my period starting.

Northey · 02/08/2012 12:36

Honestly, I luffs you all and have everything crossed that you will all be diffed in the next 5 mins so we can all be PESH together.

Though probably it will all go wrong and I will be a BESH again by next week.

KickTheGuru · 02/08/2012 12:44

Don't think like that!!!

Be all positive and talk to your tummy and pat your tummy and tell the bean to stick around... fx
