This is it for us all :-)

Welcome cwtching!

It seems even my DH is getting annoyed with the 2ww. He was talking to me, then out of the blue he just said "So when do we get to test then? is there a baby in there?" cue shocked face from me as we where just discussing american football!

oh pear that must be frustrating! I've not got any of that on my f/b at the moment thank god, but I have been seeing babies EVERYWHERE! - what do they do hide them until you decide you want one then bring them all out to tease you?!

[Lolcbcblemonlime]

Morning all. I'm pleased to announce I've used conceive plus for the first time and it feels rather nice!
Currently lying in bed to give swimmers time to set up camp outside ovaries
Pear I feel your pain. Hate fb these days for this very reason!

[peardrop2]

Hah Block! Isn't it weird when the man comes out with a random question like that. My DH is the same! You think they don't think and then boom...the random testing question comes along :)

[Thundercatsarego]

Hi everyone! Can I join this Fred too please? New to MN and am finding all this chat even more addictive than ttc really helpful.

Not sure if it makes me a threat tart tho as I've joined some others too!

I'm 33, ttc #1, have no idea what I'm doing, CD 18 and BFP somewhere between 17th and 21st Sept

[peardrop2]

Hi Thunder and welcome! I think there are a few members who are active on different threads so wouldn't be too concerned.

[Talyra]

I've not got to this stage yet, but there is an extension to hide babies from facebook! unbaby.me/ I think it's aimed at people who don't like kids, but it might work if you're indunated with cute baby pics. Personally I do it to myself - sat here watching The Midwives and wanting to steal all the babies.

Hello Thundercats, what an ace name :)

[peardrop2]

Tal that's an amazing link!! I don't actually mind the pictures...it's the mummy status updates that bugs me. It's like all of a sudden they become a mummy and loose or sense of tact and the outside world! It's nice to share some stuff but not everyday surely!?!

[peardrop2]

Now that I know the developing culprits with their newborns and toddlers I just need to go and FB and click the hide button :)

[Talyra]

oh, I LOVE the hide button! I use it for all kinds...and no one has to know!

[peardrop2]

OK Holland & Barratt say I need to take Agnus Cactus to boost my progesterone levels and then AF will return. I brought a small bottle so I can return if it conflicts with Tuesdays advice. Really wish I'd listened to the wise ladies at the start of this thread (MN experience) who were actively popping EPO and Agnus Cactus although it was always impossible for me to tell when to start taking them so I probably did the right thing looking back :-/

[Maclairey]

Ahhh Pear you could have had my bottle. I only took it for 5 days and then I got my smiley! Got nearly a full bottle! Let me know if you want EPO or Starflower oil. I have two unopened bottles! I also have 20 CBFM sticks if you are interested. I paid full price for them in Boots, took them out of the box (still wrapped individually though) and never needed them. If you want them you can have em for a good price :)

All joking aside though, I really hope you get some answers on Tuesday. I understand your frustration as I never got my AF back before I fell pregnant. But remember, I did it, so you can too!

[peardrop2]

Two more working days :)

[Lolcbcblemonlime]

Is the test on tue pear? What time? Will you find anything on the same day? Is DH coming?
Not long to wait now!

[NickiNockiNoodle]

Just jumping in before I get on a train and go underground.

My CM is vile. Utterly disgusting. Huge quantities of thicker stuff, creamy stuff. Soaked knickers and strings of it in the loo. Awful!!

Bye!!!

[33PinkLadyApple]

Marking my spot. WTF cycle 1 - waiting BFP or AF to kick off cycle 2.

[Thundercatsarego]

[NickiNockiNoodle]

There's nothing to be in awe of, honestly! It's hideous :-(

Never had so much, ever. I was bad this time last cycle, but this knocks it into a cocked hat. May revert to white undies tomorrow so it isn't so scary!

Glad I'm seeing the doctor soon. Though discussion CM in person will be odd.

[hopeful92]

Getting slightly addicted to POAS which is not a good thing, I think I need to relax more as I only came off my pill on 13th July - Friday 13th as well, not that I'm superstitious... So I'm pretty new to this whole mumsnet forums business so bear with me if I'm not 100% clued up on the etiquette and the likes..

My story.. Came off cerazette 13/07/2012, been TTC ever since. Had one AF 5 weeks after coming off the pill, then on CD14 I THINK I got a positive ovulation stick test thing, but unfortunately suffered with bad cystitis symptoms on that day - luckily we BD'd CD13 and CD15. AF due next week so lets just see if my body has been nice to me and settled into a 28 day cycle as been on the pill for 7 years, cerazette for 4 of those...

So.. can I join your TTC#1 thread? Pretty please :)

[LisaC2611]

Hi Hopeful!

Nic that doesn't sound very pleasant, I have to say that I've probably had less CM this month than I have in previous months and I haven't had a on the CB OPKs this month

Have got a monumental headache this afternoon though. Wish AF would hurry up and get here if she's coming as I'm starting to get my hopes up as if they weren't already up and I don't want to come crashing down

[NickiNockiNoodle]

Hi Hopeful, good to see you :-)

I had less pre-OV, Lisa...clearly decided to make up for it now. Wonder if wonky hormones can affect it?

Did you have any pain around when you should have ovulated? I assume you've stopped POAS to get a smiley?

[Thundercatsarego]

Poor you nic, sounds bizarre. Maybe you're producing mine too- how powerful is this MN thing?! Hope the doc can give you an answer.

Hi hopeful!

[LisaC2611]

No nic I'm still poas, gives the cb trial something to go on. Been poas since day 6! Can't have many more left!

Thought I got pain around the time I should have ov'd but been getting ov type pain yesterday when I'm 4 days away from af, my body is confusing me completely this month

[peardrop2]

Lol yes my test is Tues afternoon. I'll get the results right away thank god! No way could I hack waiting for those results! My DH asked me if I wanted him to come but I don't really. Is that weird? I think having him there might make me emotional. I'm much better at seeing things clearly when I'm on my own. I'm not sure if that's the right decision though? What would you ladies choose?

Welcome Hopeful

Nicola I really screwed up my face when I read your thread! Poor you!

[DulcetMoans]

Welcome hopeful! Might have a short stay if your testing next week. Fx for you!

[NickiNockiNoodle]

You will be out of stock soon, Lisa...hope you're not having a proper WTF cycle :-/

I wouldn't take Bri with me. I'd rather find out stuff on my own, I think. He probably wouldn't want to be there either!

I've changed my underwear now. Feeling much better. How bloody weird!

Just paid the DJ and photographer...we will have music and pictures, ha ha!!
