Sazzle I have no idea! That was 12 years ago and I was not planning a baby at the time.....but I do remember always having short cycles so I assume I may have had a short LP too! so maybe it's not as big an issue as I've been thinking, that's why I've decided to just let nature take its course now as experimenting with vitamins could really be messing things up you just don't know!

Flymo I think let's just relax and see what happens this month, surely if the egg is fertilised before that then it would prevent the onset of af! So 10 days I'm hoping is ok!!

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 12:27

I think I'll be 13dpo on Friday (this is a bit of a guess though!Grin)

Fair enough mama - i didn't pay much attention to it all last time and that was only 3 years ago!!! I like this new carefree attitude - lets see if that helps. It certainly makes for a more relaxing ttc month i'm sure!

mama31 · 20/11/2013 13:46

Hoping so sazzle! :)

flymo79 · 20/11/2013 14:08

just reading an old thread which says 9dpo is statistically most likely for implantation ??!! (flymo doesn't dare to dream and does a little boogie to buble). the most christmassy thing ever is mulled wine and the smell of clementines, I am absolutely dying for a glass of the hot stuff!!

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 14:13

Oooh that's funny flymo.....I had funny twinges in my cervix area yesterday and day before at 9/10dpo, not a feeling I've had before!.......hmmm mustn't read too much in to this!!WinkGrin

flymo79 · 20/11/2013 14:16

eek! spinning! it's so hard t ignore though! last month I had real cramping at 9dpo, but I think it was just trapped wind or something! ha ha ha!

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 14:19

HahaGrin

It's so hard not to symptom spot isn't it? I've got a growing list of symptoms but really trying not to over think it!! I'm driving myself nuts! Lol Grin

mama31 · 20/11/2013 15:30

Spinning if your nuts....your def on the right bus ;)

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 15:56

Haha thanks Mama Grin

SaraRB123 · 20/11/2013 18:36

Thank you for allowing me access ladies Grin I will be cheering you all on!!! Xx

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 18:38

Thank you Sara, we'll be on to cheer you on next weekGrin

Meringuebaby · 20/11/2013 19:29

Hey ladies! So glad the working day is over and I can rejoin this party! I have news, spotting has occurred. No clue what it means clings to hope of implantation bleed but I'm rolling with it. AF not due until next week.

I've got my christmas scented candle on (yes I will clearly need more at this rate) and I've treated myself to some lovely peaceful book reading time before I warm up cook dinner. It's well cold outside!! And rainy too. Boooo!

Everyone well?! Two days till we pee!!

FlyLikeABird · 20/11/2013 19:37

Hello, can I join in? I've bought my Superdrug sticks today and am trying to ignore them. This is cycle one for me after breastfeeding so no idea when AF due but I'll probably be 21 dpo on Friday. No symptoms, well had some a few days after ovulation but I think that was my overactive imagination.

Gah, fingers crossed for everyone, I can't wait Grin

Oh and I asked DH to get some of those nice Aldi white chocolate and cranberry cookies but I've eaten most of them Blush I'll dig around in the cupboards for more party food Cake

FlyLikeABird · 20/11/2013 19:42

Just catching up with all the posts, I like your style!

Just seen I'm already on the list. It's official then, must not touch the sticks until Friday Grin

Loving the limericks, will read some more, I can't keep up, what a lovely bunch you all are. I love MN Thanks

Meringuebaby · 20/11/2013 19:43

On the off chance that I am not upduffed once I calm down and stop having a tantrum I can get some what giddy on Fri night, right?

Welcome Fly, 19DPO did I read earlier? How have you held back from POAS so far?

FlyLikeABird · 20/11/2013 19:50

The November bus made me curious so I tested about 7ish dpo with a poundland test but got a BFN. I didn't have any more tests in the house so thought I'd just wait for AF but nothing yet.

I'm getting my hopes up now, going to have to calm down with more tea and biscuits. And remember to take the sodding Folic Acid, the pot of which seems to hide for days on end. I laid off the booze last time I was TTC but I'm not so disciplined this time around Grin

sazzlehopes · 20/11/2013 20:03

Yes sorry Fly I put you on the list as soon as I had a whiff that you might be testing. You are of course welcome to start the party early by poas tomorrow seeing as you are a crazy amount dpo!!! We won't hold it against you!! Then if you get a positive you can crack open a diggie on friday to confirm it!

spinningirl10 · 20/11/2013 20:07

Oooh Fly, I vote you test tomorrowGrinGrin we need a bfp!!!!

Honeybear30 · 20/11/2013 21:07

Hi all, I've been lurking here for a while! I too will be 9dpo on Friday but I'm not going to poas on fri. I'm new to this and want to wait as long as I can, I'd rather be disappointed by af than a bfn. I thought I just had to say because I can't believe how many of you will be on 9dpo to! Good luck to everyone I will keep checking in and hoping to see those BFP's! These parties sound brill by the way, cake, candles, blanket, fire and lots of poas...what more could anyone need?!

Meringuebaby · 20/11/2013 21:23

Welcome honey you are in good company it seems... If you like christmas scented candles mama will be pleased!

Flyseconded... Peeeee!

I'm getting lots of tiny twinges which makes me think I might be out (esp as this will be only my second period since coming off the pill, so my cycle might still be settling). Boooo.

FlyLikeABird · 20/11/2013 23:35

I'm a bit scared now, I still can't believe that 8 months ago the hospital let me take a baby home Grin

Ok, I'll put the penis beaker pot out in the bathroom to remind me in the morning.

FlyLikeABird · 21/11/2013 06:55

Boooo, a BFN, what a way to prematurely start the party Sad

I'll come and pass round nibbles on a tray for the rest of you tomorrow. I've got a good feeling that there will be lots of BFPs. I have fingers and toes crossed for you all Smile

spinningirl10 · 21/11/2013 08:04

Ooh it's busy at Mamas this week!

Sorry fly, it's not over yet though until af arrives.....have a glass of this yummy mulled wine, it smells so good. I'm sure Mama won't mind us helping ourselves.....even if it is only 8amGrin
