Ps wispa, how many dpo did you get your first shadow of a line?? I'm a poas addict...I just have to start tomorrow at 8dpo even tho I know its gona be a bfn lol

wispaxmas · 22/09/2013 19:16

My amazeballs H (still can't do D) is cautiously excited, much like I am.

I thought I saw a shadow at 9dpo, but it didn't get stronger until today! It's still faint, but definitely a line and win e time limit so not an evap. But then, gilly got lines that were totally lines last month, so I'm cautiously optimistic!

lucyfluff · 22/09/2013 19:20

No opk or temping in this house lol! I put cycle into FF and it said 3dpo just confused somewhat....going by the 14 days after day one I was thinking 6/7 dpo.

Just dr googled to add to my confusion and it says ov was between 12-17 arggghhhhh!!!!

I wish the nipple action had caused even a slight symptom but no :( and DH is in my bad books, hes just scoffed half a vienetta and left us hardly any grrrrr!!!

mama31 · 22/09/2013 19:27

Lucy I got opks this cycle and glad I did as the internet ovulation calculator was wrong! I ov almost a week later!! So opks def not a bad idea....haven't been temping tho and don't plan to just yet.

Awh can't believe he ate the vienetta!! Lol I'm sure there's worse he could do to be in the bad books tho lol

Wispa I know how you feel, if I see a hint of a line I won't totally believe it until confirmed a good few days later by digi.....do the nerves ever stop....or just shift from one thing to the next :/

lucyfluff · 22/09/2013 19:32

Lol yeah i will let him off eventually!! I have such a sweet tooth ;)

Ummm well Im thinking if this month dosent work then I will be ordering some off amazon just to give me an indication....its interesting actually knowing compared to guesswork. I just didnt want to stress over it too much.

Im going to poas this week just for the hell of it !!! Hehe

wispaxmas · 22/09/2013 19:36

Lucy, do you have regular cycles? Even if so, the luteal phase can be anywhere between 10 and 16 days, so there's no way to know for sure when you ovulate without temping, sadly.

LH1981 · 22/09/2013 19:38

Been away for the weekend and looks like I missed a lot!
cupcake, Wispa and Misty - huge congrats!!

Gilly - hello, please could you add me? TTC #3, 1st cycle.

VJ - so sorry this month's not the month, but got everything crossed for you for next month! x

Still convinced I'm pregnant, even though it's still likely it's the side effecvts of coming off my pill. Light-headed, had that 'wetness' people are mentioning and my nipples are killing me! Not the whole nipple, just the nipple nipple if you get me, lol. Sorry for TMI.

Regarding gender, I'm secretly hoping for a girl as have two gorgeous boys, but either is fine with us.

Trying to hang on until Fri to POAS but so so hard! Plus hubby is off away from Friday so if it is positive, we won't have much time to celebrate or take in the news.

Good luck everyone! x

VJONES1985 · 22/09/2013 19:43

Thanks, LH. When did you come off the pill?

On a positive note, I'm having my fourth tattoo in a couple of weeks and wouldn't have had it done if I was pg so at least I've got that to look forward to.

mama31 · 22/09/2013 19:50

Yes lucy! Let's test for the hell of it! I'm starting 2moro!!! Lol

VJONES1985 · 22/09/2013 19:52

Wish I could join you :(

LH1981 · 22/09/2013 19:54

VJ a month ago. But cerazette is famous for giving you fake pregnancy symptoms when you come off. Felt terrible at the start, really sick and dizzy (so much so that I was being physically sick and passing out).

That's gone now but I now also have really bad lower back pain (had it for about a week). I can't get comfy and I've had cramping for ages but it feels tight, like if I bend over and then stand up it tugs and feels painful.

As I said, it is very common with this pill, and I've been on it for 5 years so every chance it's all a hormonal screw up from that rather than actual pregnancy - but I can't shake the feeling! I guess the only way I'll know for sure is when/if AF arrives. Because I haven't had a period since stopping, I've no way of knowing when or if ovulation occurred to know when to test.

LH1981 · 22/09/2013 19:56

VJ - ooh exciting on the tattoo!! I have two myself. Addictive once you start lol! What are you getting? x

crazylady2013 · 22/09/2013 19:57

Onelife, I've had no symptoms this month so don't know what to expect anymore. Will just have to wait until if af shows (or doesn't show). Fx for both of us.

mama31 · 22/09/2013 20:01

Awh VJ! :( your time will come! Just look forward to your tatoo and have lots of fun ttc, I think taking the stress out of it if possible is important!

I am a poas addict and obessive on the 2ww but don't feel stressed just yet and still feel like when its our time it will happen. Hopefully I can sustain this attitude! :/

VJONES1985 · 22/09/2013 20:01

LH I had a mix of symptoms after stopping the pill six weeks ago so I know how you feel. Unfortunately my luteal phase is too short for me to get pg at the moment :(

My tattoo is going to be a fairy with beautiful butterfly-like wings.

onelifeonechance · 22/09/2013 20:11

Thanks crazy Smile how many dpo are you and when's af due for you (fx she doesn't show up!!)

Not sure if i'm clutching at straws with my 'no symptoms' symptom but all I know is it's different to the last two cycles when I clearly didn't get my bfp so you never know!

LH1981 · 22/09/2013 20:13

VJ sounds beautiful - post a pic?
Try not to get too down, it will happen. I know exactly how you feel and even though it's only been one cycle for me, I'll be really disappointed if AF comes.
But, try to relax. In my experience it really helps. It took us 5 years to have our first baby. It was only when the docs said it wouldn't be possible and we'd sort of given up that I got pregnant! Huge surprise for us. Then after that I got pregnant with our second the first month of trying.
I think stress is a sperm killer lol.

Being on the pill is great at the time, but ttc can be a pain and we'll need to be patient whilst our bodies do their thing and get back to normal. Even though my heart tells me this is it, my head tells me that I'll be joining the October bus too.

Once that bfp shows up, it won't matter what month it happened in Smile xx

lucyfluff · 22/09/2013 20:14

Wispa its only second cycle since stopping patch after 18mnths but it was 28 days on first one so im hopeful?!

Ok mama its a deal!!! Ive got cheapie hpts.....il poas and update tmrw morning lol !!!!!

mama31 · 22/09/2013 20:16

Cool lucy! We will do a crazy test tomorrow and get a bfn together then bk to it on tues lol

VJONES1985 · 22/09/2013 20:22

Thanks, LH. I will post a tattoo pic! And am already planning number 5 but don't tell my mum ;)

ELR · 22/09/2013 20:25

Everyone that's got BFP what are your moods like? I generally get a bit ratty with kids and DH before af but I'm absolutely terrible at the moment, DH upgraded my ipad to the new iOS 7 even though I asked him not to.
I don't like it, I was so angry with him I think I could of committed murder and even had tears in my eyes!! Wtf is that all about I was going mental had to take myself off to bed at 9pm on Friday night I was do mad.
Then today I have just been horrible to everyone, I fancied macaroni cheese for lunch which I never usually make or eat really as nobody likes it. Family protested but I insisted and made it anyway, then had a paddy when nobody wanted it! They did however eat it and enjoyed it but usually I would never make something that they don't really like but I just really fancied it!

wispaxmas · 22/09/2013 20:27

I popped my head over to the antenatal clubs section, and there's no June thread to peek at yet, and it would be waaaay too much of a jinx to start one, aren't any of our other bfps due June??

wispaxmas · 22/09/2013 20:28

I don't have noticeable mood changes before AF, and I don't feel any different now. I suppose sometimes I can get a bit crabby, but I think it's usually down to stress from work and not cycle...

lucyfluff · 22/09/2013 20:29

Ok Im going to have to pee in a pot using fmu and test when ive dropped hubs at work!!!! Ummmm hiding that could be interesting......!!!

Cupcake1985 · 22/09/2013 20:35
