Party thread is ready. Not sure why there are two...

mama31 · 15/10/2013 22:18

Thanks VJ!!!! Love it!!! I hopped on ;)

ImaginaryHat · 15/10/2013 22:22

Congratulations coocoo Flowers

wispaxmas · 15/10/2013 22:29

Just heard the good news. Congrats coocoo!!

jaykay987 · 15/10/2013 22:37

congrats coocoo. what dpo are you?

Newbie784 · 15/10/2013 22:42

Vicky-thanks for the info, if you peaked on cd25 how many days are your usual cycles? Congrats again btw Smile

Coocoo-huge congrats to you too! This seems like a lucky thread! Fx for the rest of us! Live hearing your symptoms/stories! It's just ashame I can't join the testing party of Friday!

CooCooCachoo · 15/10/2013 22:46

Thanks for all the congrats and keeping fx'd for the october bus. The June EDD thread could be a busy one at this rate!

14dpo Jessie, 2 weeks on the dot. Hoping its sticky!

CooCooCachoo · 15/10/2013 22:50

Cheers newbie. Perhaps the Friday POAS party could be a regular occurrence - you could do the next couple of Fridays.

I will probably still keep POAS to make sure it's still there. I have the second test left from the pack I picked up at lunchtime....maybe for Friday Grin

allchatnicknamesgone · 15/10/2013 22:56

Woop woop CooCoo

Just wondering if you tested before your Dpo and got a bfn?

sazzle your question from earlier about when you ovulated in regards to the cramps. It differs from woman to woman and often between cycles. This cycle I had them the night before ovulation then not much on the day itself, but then quite strong the day after. Bit odd and I only knew this after the event because of my temps.

CooCooCachoo · 15/10/2013 23:13

Allchat, I had nothing but BFNs from 7dpo to this morning's odd slightly pink, possibly evap line....and I tested every day Blush

VickyVix · 15/10/2013 23:14

Newbie my cycle was about 34/35 days, first month had the peak cd22, second month cd25

Looking at dates and stuff now though I'm not 100% convinced my OPK was right. Early days though so who knows!

WifeofGru · 16/10/2013 00:43

Hello all,
This is turning out to be one lucky bus. Got BFP today. First cycle trying at age 35. Can't quite believe it. DC 2 took 13 long cycles. Shocked is an understatement. Good luck all. May the BFPs keep on coming!

Newlywed2013 · 16/10/2013 01:52

COngrats Wifeofgru!!

I love seeing all these positive stories!! Most of the time i dont have a clue what is being said! hubby and I are trying but not tyring any specific days etc. It is less than a month since i had implant out, but did have a propper period after implant came out! I am feeling positive about this being a good month!
I wouldnt have a clue about temping, or ovulation days, or what looks right or not!!

Are headaches and excessive wind a symptom?

WifeofGru · 16/10/2013 04:16

Thanks newlywed. I certainly had a lot of mid and second half of cycle stomach cramps. Stuffy nose as well as if had been in air conditioning all day. Heavy, tender breasts. But TBH it was only really in the last couple of days I became convinced and so tested today.
Symptom spotted like crazy each month when TTC DD2. I was determined to just wait it out each month and see this time.

jaykay987 · 16/10/2013 05:21

coocoo - that's interesting. what tests have you been using?

congrats wife! Smile

jaykay987 · 16/10/2013 05:24

Bfn this morning (dpo 12) on IC. I chickened out and didn't want to waste an frer!

My symptoms have all disappeared. Boobs are fine (oddly this is when they usually start hurting). Feel sick this morning, but that might be because I hate mornings and am feeling tired today!

HisLommel · 16/10/2013 06:45

Bfn here too (on FRER and IC!). Still the same silvery line on IC. Will prob spend the rest of the day looking like this Hmm At work today so that will hopefully take my mind of it, then going to the cinema tonight with DF Smile

jessieagain · 16/10/2013 06:46

Wow congratulations wife! That must have been a shock after your dd. this ttc business seems to be so random.

I'm feeling quite good today. Only slightly bloated still and have started on the peppermint tea to see if that helps.

jessieagain · 16/10/2013 06:51

jaykay hislomm it is still quite early days for you both. Fingers crossed for you both.

I'm really getting quite keen to test tomorrow with fmu, but don't want to get bfn the day before the party so will hold off. Am feeling strangely optimistic though, maybe because my bloated belly is already feeling like a big old pregnant belly Grin Blush

jaykay987 · 16/10/2013 06:56

I've started the VIP list for the party. Come and RSVP on the other thread.

sazzlehopes · 16/10/2013 07:22

jakkay - thanks for the friday party invite! off to join.

congrats wife!! amazing news!

allchat - thank you for the reply. ok so i guess i'm only really 1dpo 2 at the most. it is very confusing, but i'm learning a lot from you ladies! i've had no ewcm, but i guess that varies from month to month too?

VickyVix · 16/10/2013 07:23

Wow congrats Wife!! Very exciting Grin

Don't give up hope yet jaykay and hislommel it's still v early days

lucyfluff · 16/10/2013 07:42

Wow away for an evening an two bfps to catch up on Grin congratulations to you both ladies Grin

Onelife I often wonder if friends are on here or even if anyone famous posts on here?! could you imagine talking about the contents of your sex life and cm with a celeb lol Grin

Dont give up yet jaykay it could still be too early. Only two days till fridays party and I bet we get a few bfps there!!!!

GinandStripes · 16/10/2013 08:21

Oooh congrats to the new BFPs - I'll catch up properly in a minute, you ladies are chatty Smile

Jaykay The boobs are what gave it away for me, every month for the previous 3 cycles on CD15 my boobs would start to get heavy and sore and then this cycle, they didn't until the day before AF was due. Of course now they are completely ridiculous, much to the joy of my boyfriend!

So if your Boobs are doing something different that's a good sign. Keeping everything crossed for you - it's could still be too early.

mama31 · 16/10/2013 08:29

Wowzers! Congrats wife!!! Is that 18 bfp's this bus already?!!! That's more than one a day!!!!! :) :) :)

Off to the party bus to make preparations for Friday.......
