Thanks for the welcome ladies, and good luck to you all x

Ahoy mateys! Avast ye, there still be madness in the air.

I be taking a test this morning and, swoggle me eyes, I perceive there be a ghost of a line there! Yet when I call over me First Mate to take a look, he replied "Nay C'ptn, there be naught there but white. Your eyes surely be seeing things."

So I say to me First Mate "At the midday, get thee to a place where thee can spend pieces of eight to acquire a better test, or you will be walking the plank later!"

The First Mate did reply, "Yes dear."

For the uninitiated... It be International Talk Like a Pirate Day.

mama31 · 19/09/2013 08:41

Lol spirael how random!!! I'm confused tho....was there a line??? You get a bfp????

Spirael · 19/09/2013 08:48

This be the problem, ship woman mama! I be seeing the barest ghost of a line, yet my first mate swears that it all be in my head.

Thus it be inconclusive, and further tests must occur later/tomorrow to ascertain the presence or lack thereof!

Shiver me timbers if this not be frustrating. I also be struck down with sea plague (aka a common cold) and know not whether to treat it with rum (or medicine). Yarrr...

lucyfluff · 19/09/2013 09:12

I nearly spat my tea out reading that spirael!!! Lol

Go get yourself a cb digi shipmate!!!!!!! Fingers crossed

mama31 · 19/09/2013 09:24

Lucy lol your efforts at pirate talk are lacking (like mine) lol shipmate!!!! Haha!!!!!!!!

jessieagain · 19/09/2013 09:27

Thanks wispa! I am mildly hopeful at the moment as there is still no af in sight, but at the same time im also looking forward to using my opks and trying again next month. Paris sounds wonderful and the change may be just what you need to get your bfp (although you will have to watch out for the cheeses)

That sounds very promising spirael!

lucyfluff · 19/09/2013 09:27

Lol!!!! Made me chuckle ;)

mama31 · 19/09/2013 09:37

I know! Funny!!! Lol spirael never mind all this pirate malarky....go get a test and let us know...I'm in suspense!!!

Spirael · 19/09/2013 09:55

Yarr... It be unfortunate but I be hard(ish) at work programming databases womanning my ship, landlubbers. Wink

If my First Mate manages to pillage and plunder the treasure I be seeking, then I be able to test again around the time of sunset this evening! However, without the benefit of FMU then I be wondering if the result will be conclusive or not.

If my First Mate fails... Then there be a plank walking instead!

ELR · 19/09/2013 10:20

Morning all, resisted the urge to Poas! Got the cup out and the test ready but at last minute decided against it. I'm only about 8/9 dPO and feeling a bit fed up so figured a bfn would make me feel worse and if it was a BFP I would want to tell DH straight away and he has some really important client meetings today so he doesn't need the distraction.
My boobs are tingly and I feel a bit queasy but that is often a pmt symptom anyway so who knows.

Keeping fingers crossed spirael hoping your first mate does his job and gets you your treasure!

Writerwannabe83 · 19/09/2013 10:28

Oh spirael - if I had the energy to laugh or any fluid inside me I'm pretty sure I would have wet myself laughing at your pirate post. But seeing as I have neither, a large smile will have to suffice.

I really hope you get an obvious BFP!

When I got my first Ghost of a line my First Mate also told me I was imagining it Smile

mama31 · 19/09/2013 10:33

Hi writer how you keeping?? I am feeling very bored an impatied on 3dpo...booooo!!! But have a busy wkend planned so that will distract me til Monday then ill be anxiously trying not to poas all next week as ill be tempted to test waaaaay too early and don't want a bfn :( need to try and hold off til at least thurs but will know from tue or wed that af is on her way if I get the usual pre af spotting :/

mama31 · 19/09/2013 10:34

ELR wow!! That was impressive willpower!!! Hold off tho...and use fmu tomorrow maybe??

jessieagain · 19/09/2013 10:45

What is fmu?

mama31 · 19/09/2013 10:57

First morning urine.

wispaxmas · 19/09/2013 11:17

Hahaha, Spirael, men can never see lines, that's why it's best just to show them the digital with the word right there, 'pregnant'!

Writerwannabe83 · 19/09/2013 11:24

Hi mama - things are pretty dire over here. Still having horrendous sickness, had to call in sick to work again today. I have now had over 3 weeks off Sad It is getting me down a little bit now. I'm over the moon to be pregnant but I feel like shit every day, I'm so hungry and so thirsty but cant keep anything down. Im currently living off ice lollies and a few Rich Tea biscuits a day. I don't have the energy to get out of bed and I'm tired of looking down into the toilet bowl and then collapsing in a crying heap on the bathroom floor when my body is exhausted from vomiting so much. My husband is being brilliant but he just hates seeing me so ill and knowing there is nothing he can do about it. I just look and feel awful Sad

LH1981 · 19/09/2013 12:08

Hey everyone,

Sorry you're feeling so rubbish Writer! At least it's for as good cause, but it sucks all the same. Talking about sucking...Wink Have you tried slicing thin slices of lemon and sucking on one? It cuts the gag reflex and really helps to settle the stomach.

So, morning 'nutter' confession - poas again (even though neg yesterday) and then had to hide the evidence and replace said stick with new pack so OH won't know! So now I'm officially and publicly promising not to test until the end of next week - yes, that means Friday morning next week. I. WILL. NOT. PEE. ON. A. STICK!!

Having recently come off my pill with no withdrawal bleed or period thus far, I have no idea where in my cycle I am, if I've ovulated, when period is due etc etc, so I am hoping that we scored sometime in the last 3 weeks, even though unlikely - coz I'm greedy like that!

Also have incredibly sore nipples this morning - just the nipple, not boobs. TMI, but my nipples are HUGE, and quite hard! Pre-AF, or symptom?? Always the optimist.

Good luck everyone who's testing soon xx

mama31 · 19/09/2013 12:09

Awh writer I was exactly the same with my first pregnancy..I was so sick! Its awful! But hopefully it will stop as you get further on!! Bet I'm the same again when I get preggoed as it bad sickness seems to be a recurring theme with pregnancies in my family! Its so annoying as you just want to enjoy your pregnancy but feel so sick its difficult x

internationallove985 · 19/09/2013 12:19

Hi Writer. How true this is I don't know, but they (Whoever they are) say the more sick you are the more likely it means you're carrying a girl. xx

mama31 · 19/09/2013 12:28

Lol not true international....I was sick as a dog and had a boy!
