I am quite sure I will have lost a stone by this time next week, all this running up and downstairs to pee and the not being bothered eating ........... * tsk *

JellyCurls · 08/11/2012 12:54

Not sure I will be able to last till then, those IC tests are already calling my name every morning from the bathroom cabinet. I will try be strong though

Aquarius1 · 08/11/2012 13:26

taking thanks for the intel on when to dtd after a smiley face... Might rethink my approach - tend to feel a bit rubbish&unattractive after o'ing so give it up for a bit...

TakingTheStairs · 08/11/2012 13:54

Aquarius Just in case you didn't realise, the OPKs indicate that ovulation is on it's way, they don't mean that you've ovulated that specific day, so that's why he said to dtd for the 4-6 days from when you get the positive OPK.
You need to have the swimmers there waiting for the egg, so after actual ovulation is too late. Does that make sense? Please forgive me for explaining it if you already knew that, it's just that it took me a while to realise it myself!

Am due 15th I think, so thinking earliest to test 9th but too scared to!

Spoke to my mum today trying to put my mind at rest about how long it takes to conceive and she informed me she fell first time with all three of us! Not helpful!

Fingers crossed little sounds positive!

TomDaleysTrunks · 08/11/2012 14:16

Sounds like good advice takingthestairs.

I have the start of sore boobs and am feeling a bit miserable/tearful. Although, I'm putting that down to saying goodbye to my beloved London and moving to the countryside in 2 weeks. Sad

frogchops · 08/11/2012 14:45

Thanks for tht takingthestairs....if I get a bfn this month ill try that next month ;-)

Aquarius1 · 08/11/2012 15:51

Hi sparkle I'm due 15th too... Holding out til Sunday to test...
taking thanks - does that mean that you might ovulate up to 4-6 days after a smiley face then?

TakingTheStairs · 08/11/2012 16:41

exactly Aquarius

sparkle101 · 08/11/2012 17:11

JellyCurls · 08/11/2012 17:16

Snap ladies also due 15th and despite taking advising waiting till tuesday i may test early on sunday

Mu51cal · 08/11/2012 17:19

I must depart this bus as AF has been & gone... Think we're gonna have a month off trying & will start again in December..

Congrats to those with BFPs & good luck to those waiting to POAS!

Pixie001 · 08/11/2012 22:02

Just poppin in to catch up on all the goss! Gettin POAS envy..! fx for u all! only 20 days to wait for me... Smile

thanks for tips taking (extends dtd dates in calendar)

Hot chocolate anyone? It's low calorie I'm afraid to balance out earlier pizza

TinkyPeet · 09/11/2012 07:51

Well another bfn for me this morning :( no sign of af as yet though, maybe she'll show up later on....sigh
Hope you're all ok xxx

wavesandsneezes · 09/11/2012 09:19

Hello all Smile just a quick hello between sneezing and coughing. Quite envious of all of you who are waiting to test. I won't be at that stage til later this month. Not sure on our chances though as I have been flat on my back, and not remotely in a good way, for the past few days with a hideous cold.

Hoping it has cleared up a bit more by this evening cos I have a big gig, and am also desperate to DTD this evening, to at least give us some hope of a BFP this month.

Anyone have any nice plans for the weekend (other than POASing Grin)

JollyJack · 09/11/2012 09:26

Cd30 here no af. God knows what my normal cycle length is. Haven't poased yet. only because I don't have any sticks in the house

TinkyPeet · 09/11/2012 09:35

Right ok so I've just gone back to the test I did with fmu and by that I mean took it out of the bin and there is a feinter than feint line there, so I've done a IC strip an there is a feinter than feint line on that one too! - Which appeared within the five mins i was staring at the other one.So I've done the other test (co-op brand same as fmu one) and that hasn't shown anything, but I've left it on the sink and will go back up to stare at that in a min. An I just seeing these lines because I want to? Now going to hold off goin for a pee for as long as possible to do another IC ......does anyone understand my rant? Lol xx

padster75 · 09/11/2012 09:55

tinky inspired by your result I decided to give it another go ....... nothing in the time limit Sad but following your lead rummaging in the bin I've had another look, may be a feint line. Don't get too excited I don't have my glasses on it is most likely my eyes playing tricks on me. Since when did I become a symptom and urine obsessed woman?

So yes I get your rant and find myself doing exactly the same thing!

TinkyPeet · 09/11/2012 10:11

I am so tempted to run to boots and get a cbd, there's no feints on those! Just wish they weren't £14!!!

TakingTheStairs · 09/11/2012 10:40

Morning all,
Sorry to hear that you're out for this month Mu51cal
Fingers crossed for those of you with faint lines on your tests.

Ooh fx for faint lines :) sounds exciting Im also getting jealous of all this POAS, How many DPO has everyone waited before POAS? We have a party next weekend and ideally would know yes or no before then, so I know whether to be sensible or drown my sorrows have a nice glass of wine, but think it will still be too early.

llamaface · 09/11/2012 11:49

Tinky am completely with you.

Normally post on 2 ww board but need some advice and there is much more traffic here. Tested this morning at day 13 po. There was the faintest pink line ever after about 6 mins - bfp or not? Having lots of symptoms - breasts like rocks,painful nipples, super human sense of smell, occ feel queasy ( but it wouldnt be unheard of for me to imagine these things).

Going to get another test on way home- which ones are most sensitive/ idiot proof?

chocolateteabag · 09/11/2012 11:54

YAY Tinky sounds promising - but also like you've got low HCG levels so a CBD might not be worth it yet as I've heard they aren't as sensitive as a FRER

llamaface - Superdrug own brand ones are supposed to be as sensitive as First Response - and half the price.

FX that you both get much stronger BFP lines later today tomorrow Grin

chocolateteabag · 09/11/2012 11:58

oh and I got a BFN in the morning of 14DPO with a cheapy POAS and a BFP in the evening with a First Reponse

I'd also tested at 8DPO, 10DPO and 12 DPO with CBD's (I do not follow own advice of waiting) and got BFN's

TinkyPeet · 09/11/2012 12:08

Hi ladies, I have used some from co op, 3.99 for 2, as the frer I did yesterday and day before came up bfn, the lines are still there and even my friend says she can see them on pic I've sent her, so keepin myself busy by scrubbing the house till I can pee again lol. Going for about 3pm, doubt I will be able to hold it in much longer than that lol. Gonna force myself not to get a cbd till tomorrow tho!
llama I'm on cd29 - no sign of af and boobs not hard but painful if I prod them esp on nipples lol
pink I have pretty much been poas for about 8 days haha, I seriously am the most impatient person in the world lol
Off to scrub the bathroom now
Xx
