Welcome aboard ladies (though obviously sorry you have to be here). We're a friendly bunch so come in and plump up a cushion for POAS Fridays and lots of posifrickingtivity. With a few (gentle) fish slaps thrown in for good measure.

Yay booty!!

BlackholesAndRevelations · 08/04/2013 07:40

Congrats booty!

LittleBairn · 08/04/2013 07:55

It's day 6 CBFM has asked for the first stick and is now telling me I'm high fertility. DH isn't convinced, I'm willing to trust it but might also use OPK along side it.

Just noticed something odd, during my last cycle I could see the blue lines on the sticks this time it's completely clear yet telling me I'm 'high' Confused

LittleBairn · 08/04/2013 07:57

katerina ovulation isn't a fixed time, on average you will OV mid cycle but some are early some late.

Mummytothearkbuilder · 08/04/2013 08:12

Congrats booty!! Smile

SpanishLady · 08/04/2013 08:42

congrats to everyone with a BFP/line - have wonderful pregnancies! Janie hope to see you on the Nov ante natal thread soon x

CamomileHoneyVanilla · 08/04/2013 08:46

Wow, what an amazing week. Congrats everyone on your BFPs! Getting a good feeling about this thread.

Have good weeks people. Loving all the sewing and posifrickintivity

CamomileHoneyVanilla · 08/04/2013 08:50

Little, I've had a similarily confusing time with CBFM. High since I started testing, no peak and now at CD17 (although usually ovulate at CD19 so we'll see). Consistently one lone line on the stick. My understanding is that if takes a cycle for cbfm to figure out your cycle and a long time stuck on high is fairly common. Hang on in there!

alyant79 · 08/04/2013 08:52

Wow booty! come up straight away hey? perhaps you're further along than you thought?

4ish weeks until I can test again now.... seems like forever.

JanieLovesCake · 08/04/2013 09:48

Go booty!!!!!! This is such an awesome week!!!

And thanks Spanish, someday I'll hopefully pluck up the courage!! Maybe if I get to 38 weeks!!! Xx

BootyBigFatFridayBanger · 08/04/2013 09:53

Thanks everyone - going for my blood test in a couple of hours and hoping that they will give me the HCG result today (I'm abroad so that works a bit quicker here thankfully).

I used a FR test this time, rather than a ClearBlue - I think they might be more sensitive hence getting the quick line? I also took Clomid this month and had the trigger shot - it's been 14 days so the shot is out of system but i also had an ultrasound just before I ovulated / triggered and there were little little eggies ready to go..... Grin

BootyBigFatFridayBanger · 08/04/2013 09:56

Sorry - meant to say TWO little eggies Grin

alyant79 · 08/04/2013 10:15

So the line could be coming up quicker because there are two little embryos???? Shock
that would be exciting/scary x 100000

BootyBigFatFridayBanger · 08/04/2013 10:29

I wondered if it might Grin defo I might be getting ahead of myself a tad lol

Need to see if it is a possible bean yet reins self back in

Bakingtins · 08/04/2013 13:26

Congrats Booty. Wouldn't it be something to be able to say to your twins baby that you'd seen their egg before they were even conceived!

katerinaemalina · 08/04/2013 16:49

Thanks little bairn! Doesn't take much to get me confused Grin

SeasideLily · 08/04/2013 18:46

Wow, this thread really is good luck! So pleased for everyone, and lots of positive sticky vibes. Aly - af has been very strange with me. Normal for first two months, then last time dragged on for almost two weeks (last week really light). Have literally no idea what's going on, just putting it down to 'one of those things'.

Thundercatsarego · 08/04/2013 19:22

Hi all,

Good luck with those using the confusing-sounding cbfm!

Anyone know about lots of cm a few days after ov? Dr google said something about progesterone- is it a good sign that ov has happened?

BootyBigFatFridayBanger · 08/04/2013 19:44

Well looking positive at this very early stage, HCG was 5 times what it was at this stage with my mc so fingers tentatively crossed Smile

Thundercatsarego · 08/04/2013 19:45

Oo booty!

SeasideLily · 08/04/2013 19:51

Exciting Booty! It's amazing that they can see eggs being released - what a thought that it might be twins!

ChocolateCremeEggBag · 08/04/2013 21:04

I'm confused - just POA'd on a tesco stick and got another vv faint line.
When should they start getting darker?
Should I just wait it out til Friday..

(waiting for Thunder and the fish)

Congratulations Booty

Thundercatsarego · 08/04/2013 21:06

Rule 4) choc! P as much as you like.

I think?

alyant79 · 08/04/2013 21:39

I'd have thought they'd start getting darker every day, slowly. But changing brands will obviously change line darkness. Another tesco stick in 2 days?

MarthasHarbour · 08/04/2013 21:48

Ladies may i join you? I shall go back and read as much of the thread as i can, but i may need to 'freestyle' and catch up as we go along Wink

I am 40, have a DS who is nearly 4 and a little cherub. We started TTC#2 in January 2011, and 2 miscarriages later with 2 CP's thrown in for good measure we are no further forward. We got PG straight away but lost bubs at 10 weeks. The second MC in Sept 2012 was more traumatic as I was 21 weeks PG. The 20 week scan showed complications and by the time they scanned me again a week later he had died Sad

It is taking a hell of a lot of getting over (if ever) and we still have nothing to show for over 2 years TTC. However we are really trying to be positive for DS' sake. He was fully aware of losing #2 in September and asked lots of questions Sad

Anyway, here i am - we havent given up yet, hence my foray over here Smile I was a regular on the mosh pit thread on this topic but all my mates on there have graduated Sad Envy

Our boy was due in January and i have had a few mates have their DCs over the last couple of months, yep they were the friends who were all excited that we would be 'back together again' on mat leave etc etc so that has been hard.

So i bring cake - is that acceptable? Hmm Grin
