Time to move over ladies. Would love to start this thread by announcing my BFP but unfortunately I can't because we all talk too much to get to test date!

All going for gold medals in baby-making and bound to get there soon, aren't we???

Ooh, promising lets! :-)

And maybe you're having a longer cycle this time, Dulcet, as you need 10 days at least really.

DulcetMoans · 01/09/2012 12:51

Well I hope so, thought I worked out a little short. Will see though.

Could be promising then lets. Will have to see how strong it gets by tomorrow. Hopefully full AF stays away!!

DH just said I can test early if I want! Is there any point to POAS on a) cycle day 12 b) in the afternoon (assuming I limit fluid intake for a few hours first)?

Talyra · 01/09/2012 16:16

Sorry, not cycle day 12. 12 days past ovulation!

NickiNockiNoodle · 01/09/2012 17:05

Potentially, Tal. I'd only use a cheapie for that though.

Talyra · 01/09/2012 20:53

I should get some cheap ones in really. Then I can test as much as I like. I did it and it was negative, but I know it was too early to test! I have one more test in the house so I'd better save it for Monday.

NickiNockiNoodle · 01/09/2012 20:55

FX for Monday :-)

Talyra · 01/09/2012 22:01

thank you! where is a good place to get lots of cheap tests from?

NickiNockiNoodle · 01/09/2012 22:12

Amazon or eBay. :-)

DulcetMoans · 02/09/2012 08:05

Amy smiley luck nic? Mine was gone this morning so hoping you got it instead!!

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 09:08

Not had my first wee yet...will let you know!

DulcetMoans · 02/09/2012 09:10

Not had your first wee?! You must have a bladder of steel!! I've had two already!

Talyra · 02/09/2012 09:45

Today I'm having the is-it-implantation-bleeding-or-an-uncharacteristically-early-light-period debate with myself! Can maybe POAS tomorrow. Will have to see if bleeding increases.

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 10:04

I'd only just woken up!!

In other news: I GOT A SMILEY! :-)

I walked back into the bedroom and demanded sex. We have just DTD. Twice!

Need him to bugger off so I can wave my legs in the air :-)

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 10:05

Fx Tal :-)

peardrop2 · 02/09/2012 10:19

Yay Nicola!

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 10:23

I'd almost given up hope! But I knew something was happening as the pain was utterly horrendous yesterday afternoon. Maybe I am working. Kind of!

I felt quite tender internally during DTD too...anybody else feel like that at OV.

peardrop2 · 02/09/2012 10:24

In other cycles yes but in this cycle I've felt absolutely nothing, even around the smiley time.

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 10:30

That's strange, isn't it? At least your scan isn't far away now. Really hope you get some answers then.

DulcetMoans · 02/09/2012 10:32

Yay!! We are matching the nic! CD17 smiley. See you in a couple weeks for testing! Haha.

Sometimes I feel a bit tender internally but not associated it with particular time of the month. Could be though!

(I had my 2 wees before I had even got up properly. Tiny bladder, will be awful when I eventually get pregnant!)

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 10:40

Ha ha...so we are. Scary stuff, bearing in mind we've never even been in the same room!

I think you're meant to ovulate 24 - 48 hours after the surge. Which would make Monday about right for another 32 day cycle. Maybe I'm actually getting somewhere with this now!

I only had a wee at 2am, after waking on the sofa...would have gone way before then otherwise!

peardrop2 · 02/09/2012 10:51

Me too Nicola only 6 more week days to go :) Weirldy my CBFM started asking me for sticks today! Says CD21! What a mess that is ;)

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 11:09

How odd...did you oblige though?!

I like you only counting weekdays. Seems much sooner then. But that means I get married in 30 week days' time. Eek!!

Hopefully the scan will mean less speculating and more knowing what's happening. Google is both useful and a nightmare all at once.

LoveinNY · 02/09/2012 11:30

Morning ladies. I am also lying in bed with two pillows under my hips. Smile lol. Wonder how many ladies are in this position?!?
lets sound promising! Get a testing and give us all some good news!! Xx

NickiNockiNoodle · 02/09/2012 11:45

I ended up just lying flat :-/ I don't want to be so blatant in front of H2B as I'm trying to keep it as normal / relaxed as possible for now. If we get beyond 6 cycles, I'll step it up!!

I think lets needs to POAS for us! After one more OV test tomorrow, that'll be my POAS action done for 2 weeks!
