Oh woody. Sorry about af. At least u can enjoy holiday and diving!
I'm fascinated about this poas situation. Half of us are addicted (no judgement) and the other half (me) are too scared of bfn and delay poas more than necessary. That means more days of obsessing symptom spotting for no reason!
We are all silly in our own little ways Grin

frustratedpants · 17/08/2012 23:55

lolcbcb it's an odd one. And the odd fence sitters who chant POAS POAS POAS Grin

winkle Shock stealth brag? Wink I didn't. DH is snoring. So I watched tribes with Bruce Parry. I would Grin

Shall I start the symptom spotting....
I have ... Cramps just about my pubic hairline. In the middle. At 6/7dpo. hmm might check last months Fred to see if I had cramps then, I think I did

Frustrated - I'm on cd27 so not sure how much good it did! But we're trying eod this month so we just gave to keep on going.

You never know winkle Wink it's a good distraction method. Grin

*disclaimer - Ignore my symptom spotting, I had cramps last month at this time too. Sad
Anyone else have any made up symptoms. Nah, just me. Grin Blush

frustratedpants · 18/08/2012 00:10

Real symptoms would be good though

IBelieveInPink · 18/08/2012 07:23

Ooh frustrated I have loads of made up symptoms!
Check these out, funny taste in mouth, headaches, cramping, dizziness, sore boobs and finally, nausea in morning and evening!
However, problem is despite all of these that my brain has invented I don't really feel that I am. And lots of people say you just know. I think I'm just being a mentalist

Lolcbcb · 18/08/2012 07:50

Ha pink!
Check out my fake symptoms!
Headache-tick
Queasiness-tick
Itchy boobs (new one)- tick
Cramping (which would NEVER be af related)-tick
And the most definite of all- I had what I know to be implantation bleeding on 6/7 dpo!
But am expecting af on Monday!

Peacocklady · 18/08/2012 09:42

I'm a poas addict, I find harsh reality less consuming than hope!
Got af this morning! Glad to know things are getting back to normal and that it's exactly 2 weeks after I thought I ovulated. Good luck everyone!

IBelieveInPink · 18/08/2012 10:07

hehe. lol you sound as pg mental as I am! Fingers crossed for Monday, or we may both be destined for the men in white jackets Grin
Honestly this TTC business does crazy stuff!

winkle2 · 18/08/2012 10:48

Bfn again this morning.

Now just waiting for AF. Who knows when she'll arrive. Took 43 days last month!

Lolcbcb · 18/08/2012 11:41

Pink I won't test till sat. Too scared to face it, prefer to continue with my little dream until af comes

SunshineOutdoors · 18/08/2012 13:42

Hi puppy and everyone else!

I feel your pain winkle cd43 and bfn. I've given up guessing when I oved as everytime I put new info in ff, temp coverline changes and ov day changes. Think I'm just waiting for af too. Going to do frer in the morning

frustratedpants · 18/08/2012 14:46

Apart from the odd cramps wind I have no other symptoms. Dpo7 and away from home tests until dpo10. So I can't POAS until dpo11. --that's will power for you. Grin

winkle2 · 18/08/2012 15:05

Sunshine I have no idea when I OV either as apps say one thing and monitor peaked 15 days ago so I should have had AF or BFP by now.

PuppyMummy · 18/08/2012 23:43

ooh symptom spotting!

I have one wierd sore boob (odd cos its just one!) and both feeling swollen totally normal for me before af
and some mild af type cramping again the usual
and a bit of a scratchy throat who ever said that was a pregnancy symptom!!

so I'm fully expecting to get bfp af on schedule next week! Smile

I may die of shock when I do actually get pregnant!

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 04:49

Ooh puppy scratchy throat? Definately a symptom of pg something. I have one swollen gland (in my throat) points to cat allergy and itchy eyes again cat allergy and itchy boobs said stoopid cats have fleas
And I'm knackered having been awake since 3am

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 10:54

I've still got itchy boobs and am now peeing more than usual. I AM DRIVING MYSELF INSANE!
Af due today/tomorrow. Let's see.

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 11:07

lolcbcb I don't know how you can bare waiting. I couldn't do it do you have a cat with fleas to explain the itchy boobs? Do you feel pre-AF-y?

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 11:12

No animals in the house. I'm not feeling pre-af. Generally crave chocolates but am not this time. It could be that it's going to take ages as its first one after mc.
Today it's one month I've lost my baby Sad

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 11:36

Sad lolcbcb I can't imagine what it feels like for you.

I can offer you a donut?

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 11:38

Mmmmmm the image of a fat Krispy Kreme has made me smile!!

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 12:09

It's krispy kremes that I have. There's nothing quite like them. They were shouting eat me eat me sat inanimatly in tescos. I couldn't refuse their calling to me resist buying a big box.

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 12:18

I'm glad I'm off to sainsburys now. Would not resist if I saw a cream filled - chocolate covered one!
