They do for some people slattern but sometimes it's a squint pale line.

I feel really really sick now, to the point I might actually be sick

berri · 19/08/2012 20:48

Not good to hear you're feeling so sick frustrated but that is a good sign!

Everyone seems to have some good symptoms apart from me - blub!

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 20:55

Frustrated that will be because you ate all 6kk donuts rather than sending me one as promised!
I picked some amazing blackberries from my garden and am gorging on them now. Check me out being healthy for my unborn baby my own sake!
Glad u found us ngh Smile
So we have banana and berri (sounds like a smoothie) poas on wed/thu
Then myself and ngh poas on sat.
Is that it for the week?

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 20:58

Hi ngh
Welcome, you are more than welcome to obsess with us. Grin

I will add for some reason in erring on the side of caution this month be careful you don't build yourself up too much. I did 2 AFs ago and it hurt like hell i was in the terrible COD for a week. But last month I POA large number of S and wasn't so bad because I was realistically expecting bfp AF

I'm quite sane calm at the moment, but I'm sure I'll be obsessing as soon as I get back to my beloved sticks home.

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 21:05

I still have a couple I could send you but the postman might eat them they might not make it.

My bfp AF is due Saturday too. But starting my obsessional POASing on Wednesday

berri you have coldsores and no AF symptoms, good enough to join our gang Grin

PuppyMummy · 19/08/2012 21:08

my af is due Fri but I won't be poas til Mon at the earliest , that's if it doesn't show of course!

I feel quite funny today. not crampy as such but heavy and twingy and queasy.

I am however convinced this is all in my head cos I am thinking about it so much!

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 21:27

My af was due today or tomorrow but I'm too scared to poas so will wait till sat and see if it shows up!

SuperSlattern · 19/08/2012 21:38

Bananas I know, it's hard to stop thinking about it.

Hello ngh. Are you ttc #1? Trouble is everyone has different symptoms. It could be promising for you. But try not to get upset if it's bfn

Frustrated if you feel sick tomorrow then it's definately a sign :)

Berri No signs could be a good thing too. It's so bloody unpredictable

Puppy how many dpo will you be tomorrow?

SuperSlattern · 19/08/2012 21:39

Lol you can't keep us in suspense like that! I think you should POAS first thing in the morning

Lolcbcb · 19/08/2012 21:42

Haha super I'm a chicken and too scared. will continue with my fake pregnancy and see if af comes I have a lot to focus on at work and a bfn will make me lose my concentration! Plus I think af will come anyway. Let's see x

IBelieveInPink · 19/08/2012 22:27

Ooh I've missed lots this evening! I will be poas again at some point this week, that's if af doesn't get me. I'm thinking about first thing tomorrow but convinced it will be another no.
lol I don't know how you have the willpower for waiting! V impressed Smile

qazxc · 19/08/2012 22:57

Hi guys, I'm back. Had another miscarriage this week, waiting for bleeding to stop and hospital to ring with blood tests results. Hopefully will get green light to TTC right away. Fingers crossed for 3rd time lucky.

frustratedpants · 19/08/2012 23:07

Sarahbump1 · 19/08/2012 23:13

PuppyMummy · 19/08/2012 23:32

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 19/08/2012 23:53

Hi qazxc I was just lurking on this thread and saw your post. I am so very very sorry.

Hope you are feeling ok.

berri · 20/08/2012 02:30

I'm sorry you're going through that qazxc
Sad

I hope you have some lovely people around you in rl - thinking of you.

goingbananas30 · 20/08/2012 08:27

Morning ladies,

qazxc I am so sorry about this.... tonnes of hugs.

berri did you cave in yet? Cheers to the will power Smile

wishing us all a good week and loads of BFP to cheer the thread up.

Never forget God loves us all.

Has anyone read the e-book 'Personal Path to Pregnancy?'

winkle2 · 20/08/2012 08:51

Qazxc - I'm really sorry to hear this :(

AF got me girls so good luck to the rest of you.

Having some time off 'Actively' TTC - need a break from thinking about it all the time!

OP posts:
Thingymajigs · 20/08/2012 09:38

I can see how people need a break from TTC, it's quite draining and I'm only in month 2.
Not sure if my cycle is 28 or 32 days long so for the second time this month I've started the one week wait. I find myself wishing the time away just so I can get a definitive answer.
Good luck to everyone else still waiting this month.

Lolcbcb · 20/08/2012 09:46

Morning all
I'm having a sneaky suspicion af will show today Sad
Have cramps etc. boo

frustratedpants · 20/08/2012 10:17

Morning ladies, who's caved?

Oh boo lolcbcb

That's a nice respectable length winkle2

Welcome sarah step away from the PO(a)Sticks for at least a week, 7-10 days to implantation, ps you're not the only one
you're an addict do you have Internet cheapies?

IBelieveInPink · 20/08/2012 11:33

Morning all
qazxc so sorry to hear that. Sad

I caved. I have NO willpower. I do have a BFN though. Boo. Roll on next month!

SunshineOutdoors · 20/08/2012 11:47

Qazxc I'm really sorry Sad

And sorry af got you winkle

I had a neg frer yesterday morning so enjoyed myself at v then af showed up during the day. Am pissed off and feel the same about ttc as you winkle

Thingymajigs · 20/08/2012 11:53

I caved even though I have no idea what point I am at after ovulation. Blush Tested when I could've been either 9dpo or 5dpo. BFN, obviously. I think I might try OPK's next month but I've been hearing conflicting information on their effectiveness.
Right, I'm going to stop thinking about TTC for the rest of the day, I'm boring myself.
