Wow thunder that so just summed it up. I got all emosh then hormones much
Don't just want a BFP want a healthy baby. I love this. bigger picture long term goal. Aww. definitely hormones?!

Thundercatsarego · 21/03/2013 18:29

Ahh thanks pink you soppy pregnant woman

I'll still miss you when you move on without me x

jmf294 · 21/03/2013 18:34

Hugs thunder- really hope your TSH drops ASAP and you graduate from here.
Congratulations vocalista- lovely news. I had a dream in my last pregnancy about being pregnant and I went and tested that day and has my surprise BFP. Strange how intuition works.

I am feeling all positive today- but not testing for 2 weeks yet and don't think I ovulated but you never know!!

IBelieveInPink · 21/03/2013 18:39

I'm hanging around here for a few months yet, don't you worry. Am far from out of the woods yet and still shitting it very scared.

Besides, your levels could drop super quick, and you could have a BFP (healthy baby) before you know it. X

CatPussInACrownOfThorns · 21/03/2013 20:14

Yup, another one here with brown sludge at about that stage Ickle.
jmf294 you'll be testing the same friday as me. Fingers crossed for you, me and everyone else.

CatPussInACrownOfThorns · 21/03/2013 20:16

On a serious note, I think Ive broked DP! Confused
He looks slightly stunned, and is walking with a bit of a squint! Grin Am going to have to go easy on him. He's an old man now!

icklemssunshine1 · 21/03/2013 21:00

Thanks Thunder & Catpuss, makes me feel a bit better that its "normal" - are you still "suffering" if not how long did it go on for? Want to get on the TTC bandwagon!!

Sending lots of posifrickintivity thoughts to anyone POAS tomorrow :)

icklemssunshine1 · 21/03/2013 21:02

Ha ha Catpuss - tell your DP to suck it up & take it like a man!! :) Or maybe he should lie back & think of England?! :)

LittleBairn · 21/03/2013 21:32

It's not my first cycle since MC it's technically my 3rd, but the first one was all over the place. I also had about 3 weeks post natal bleeding too, now I know why maternity pads are so huge!

I'm fine if no BFP month I knew it would take at least one cycle for the CBFM to work itself out so have low expectations for now.
If I did ovulate when I suspect I did then we DTD the night before so all is not lost.
It only took 3 cycles not conceive with Noah....

CatPussInACrownOfThorns · 21/03/2013 21:40

I was still getting random spotting or brown goop up until very recently Ickle. I just ignored it.
Sadly, I think DP is just knackered! Grin We DTD this afternoon [sneaky afternoon off] and he erm... gave up! Blush I'll give him a night off tonight!

LittleBairn · 21/03/2013 21:56

catpuss loving the worn out husband. Poor guy all that attention... Grin

Vocalista86 · 21/03/2013 22:09

Thanks everyone, with my last pregnancy I had zero symptoms apart from a bit of heartburn. Today I have been iht with nausea like never before, horrible waves of it! No implantation bleeding, no sore boobs yet, few cramps here and there but my skin hasn't been great this past week or so! Last time I wished for morning sickness as a sign everything was normal, this time it seems I might have it but nothing can dampen my mood today!

I am curious I'm feeling this way if I'm only 12 dpo though, but I only track cycle length not ovulation and always assumed I ovulated on day 14 of the cycle, perhaps I don't?

Xx

MrsSpencerReid · 21/03/2013 22:51

Vocalist, when I was preg with ds I had sickness from 7dpo! I though I had a bug!!
Against my better judgment I shall be POASing tomorrow, so I had better be the only bfn!

WillSantaComeAgain · 22/03/2013 06:32

Bfn SadSadSad

Stupid system, stupid body.

At least I can have the very very large gin that I need tonight.

icklemssunshine1 · 22/03/2013 06:36

I'm sorry Santa, not going to patronise with all that " wasn't meant to be crap" so instead will send you a hug & lots of positive thoughts for next cycle (when I can hopefully try with you)!

Thundercatsarego · 22/03/2013 07:29

Arse, sorry santa Sad

My phone just autocorrected gin to gun- that's really not what I meant to pass over!

JanieLovesCake · 22/03/2013 07:43

Hey girls, thunder sorry to hear AF got you. Hopefully your thyroid levels will normalise now that you're getting the correct treatment. As link said, we're stilling hanging around here :). and santa sorry to hear you got a bfn :( is there any chance you could be too early?

Congrats vocalista that's fab news! Fx for a sticky healthy bean for you :)

Are there any other fertile Friday poasers? (Sorry this thread has moved so quickly it's hard to keep up!)

Loving all your knitting and sewing expertise! Some friends and I used to have a fortnightly 'stitch & bitch' night where we brought whatever project we were working on and had wine and a gossip! It was really fun!! But I'm defo a complete amateur! My MIL tried to teach me how to crochet but I just got frustrated and gave up. Love the YouTube idea, might give that a whirl

LittleBairn · 22/03/2013 08:08

santa Sad sorry for your BFN.

On the early symptom front is it possible because many of us have recently been pregnant our bodies quickly recognise the rising hormones and go into over drive?

My consultant told me my body would treat the pregnacy as a 2nd pregancy since I got into the 2nd trimester, which will be a relief.
In my family women get hypermisser with their first but it usually isn't so bad for their 2nd, hopefully I won't get MS that bad again not sure I could cope with 24/7 sickness for 3 months again.

Zeuxippe · 22/03/2013 08:08

Morning everyone! Not posted for a few days. Congrats to vocal great news! Good to hear about your tests tin. thunder sorry to hear about af, hope the thyroid levels are settling down.

santa how many dpo are you?? Will you test again?

Got a smiley on the opk here - eek! Smepathon this weekend.

Happy Friday everyone

LittleBairn · 22/03/2013 08:09

No Fertile Friday for me this week but I'm in for next week.

MrsExcited · 22/03/2013 08:10

I am early to be getting on having 2nd scan today to confirm mmc, no doubt in my mind having seen sac last week( should have been a 10 week feotus)

So ERPC asap hopefully as nothing is happening then on with ttc, off on holiday on easter sunday which will be nice.

Good luck to all those poas and thoughts to those where it hasn't worked yet.

katerinaemalina · 22/03/2013 08:16

Thunder and Santa I'm joining u Hmm bfn. Boo. Empty vessel. Trying to be positive thank god it's Friday and not Monday. I just had a feeling I wasn't. Congrats vocal fab news. V reassuring for us lot too. Guess its a big fat glass of vino and a think about how not to go crazy this time next month. Am also trying to avoid preg friends. Just cant face it. Not sure how to lay low over the next month, or 2, or 3, or 4.....Any tips?

Floweroct · 22/03/2013 08:23

Anothe bfn here so much for fertile Friday :( Sorry to thunder, Santa and katerina!

I'm hoping I'm just too early as should probably have tested next week but at least I won't have another week of getting hopes up!

Definitely having a drink tonight though!

katerinaemalina · 22/03/2013 08:43

Ha I subscribe to a daily newsletter which gives you a word a day plus it's use and a quote. Today's word?!!!! Impregnable. Ffs!!

WillSantaComeAgain · 22/03/2013 09:00

Its a month since ERPC so today was really a stab in the dark testing wise. I have no idea when or if I ov this month, but we DTD every other night the whole damn month because my randy DH has gone slightly mental so I was convinced we'd done enough. I guess I could be too early, in which case I'll POAS next Friday.
