I can't believe it's only Monday! I'm sure the 2ww gets longer every time!

Choccywoccydodah · 21/10/2013 17:59

Half pint I don't know what's worse, the wait upto ov or the wait after! Confused

Congratulations spinning!!!!

hev19 · 21/10/2013 18:24

Thanks sazzle think im about 7 dpo but haven't been testing so its just a guess from timing and symptoms, that's what made sat so weird and wondered if I ov earlier?! It was just a regular boots test this morning so didn't expect much, have ordered some early ones so hopefully be here before Fridays party Grin

I'm with you half pint just hope Fridays worth waiting for! Wink

sazzlehopes · 21/10/2013 18:35

Choccy I know what you mean - but at least you can be actively up to stuff before ov, the 2ww really is just waiting!!

Oh man, I now feel bloated, but is that just because I've had dinner? I'm convincing myself I feel more pregnant this month, but I think I'm hyped up from all the bfps on this bus! I am going to drive myself and you lot completely bonkers by friday. Please don't throw me off the bus for not having a ticket to sanity!

hev19 · 21/10/2013 18:47

haha you're so funny sazzle you won't get kicked off no way! we'll all be practically giving birth with our symptoms by Friday..... I can just see us still on the bus the following Friday not admitting its time to move to Nov bus and having a last woman standing POAS party..... Oh dear, well here's hoping [grins]

sazzlehopes · 21/10/2013 19:05

It is nice to be on here though Hev19 and chat away my time with some equally crazy ladies. Mama31 would be so proud of us with a mini poas party.
I'm currently riding the nov bus too, as I'm not sure if my bfp is due end oct or early nov, quite nice already being on that one. An easier shift if I need to after the weekend incase AF turns up!

m33r · 21/10/2013 19:23

sazzle I'm loving the symptom spotting! I'm 4dpo and thinking hmmmmmm.... So much so I've actually decided that I must've ov-d earlier as I'm thinking a symptom! Donmt worry girls I'm not serious ... I don't think!

sazzle what've you got symptom-wise? Bloating and upper knicker line twitches? How do you know when you ov-d?

m33r · 21/10/2013 19:28

allchat I'm sorry you're fed up. I can't find your stats. How long you been trying? Try to keep positive. How long you been on opks? My mum helpfully said that I know too much... How do you unknow what you know? It's so hard to switch off and 'not try'!

johull · 21/10/2013 19:43

Hello everyone, I managed to stay away for 2 weeks and I have to say I am shocked at how many BFP so far. I am very pleased for you all and I hope this continues.
I am currently on day 21 and have certainly ovulated this month. As you can see by the list I am due to test on the 30th of this month. my question is this... I have NEVER had sore breasts before, today I have suddenly had the worst breast pain ever!!!! Its in both breasts but not near the nipples. I have also noticed the nips getting slightly darker. Could it be that I am preggo(?) even though I am not due AF until the 30th, alternatively is AF going to arrive 9 days early. Help is more than welcome.

m33r · 21/10/2013 19:50

johull I think sore bbs is the best sign of pg. That's what I look for every month! FX prib still a but early to poas though ...

HalfPintLulu · 21/10/2013 20:02

Symptoms are funny things - I wish I wasn't a keen over obsessive symptom spotter.

My nipples feel tingly today and that's all I've been thinking about. We can all go insane on mass!

sazzlehopes · 21/10/2013 20:23

Thank goodness you ladies are joining me on symptom spotting...

M33r I'm only going by my ov date from my cbfm machine with gave me highs until my first peak last mon, day 14 of my cycle. So i assume if i have this ov thing right it'll be 24hours or so after that? I had some crazy pains all afternoon of that monday too, so many it was even that day and the machine only picked up the day after the official peak? You can only use fmu with the cbfm and only in a testing window if that makes sense. So from the cbfm and the pain I'm thinking mon or tue last week....but it's only a guess. Seems like I had no ewcm this month which was odd.

Symptoms today and yesterday lots of twinges in the ovary area. Bloated tonight, but I often get bloated from dinner! Nothing else though. Don't you worry though, I'll keep you updated!! Grin

sazzlehopes · 21/10/2013 20:25

johull, you are on exactly the same cycle day as me. sore boobs sounds like a good sign. I'm due with af on the 28th, but i'm going to go crazy and poas this friday with a few other girls. come join us if you fancy it!

johull · 21/10/2013 20:42

certainly will sizzle although I am pretty sure it'll be BFN. Just have a feeling if I am PG I wont test + until a week after AF is due. I will join the Friday massive though x

HalfPintLulu · 21/10/2013 20:57

If we all get BFN's we can crack open the virtual wine ready for the weekend!! Lol :)

mama31 · 21/10/2013 21:06

Proud indeed Sazzle ;) please make your way to the friday poas party thread to have your bfp party! It would cheer me up so much to see this!!! Party at mama's house, could be just what I need to get me (and onelife) out of hibernation!!

hev19 · 21/10/2013 21:24

Yey! Please come out of hibernation mama Smile im looking forward to the virtual wine already! Just hope we don't get an AF gatecrasher to ruin the fun! For the symptom update im still peeing for England, but might just be getting paranoid......must remember to drink more or ill look like a prune by Friday!!

hev19 · 21/10/2013 21:25

atleast the POAS won't be a problem though! Sorry if that's tmi Blush

Missvaughan85 · 21/10/2013 21:45

Evening ladies old and new!! Been away for a week and the bfp's have been rolling in, congrats girls!!! Ever so jealous, inly because your closer to the summer holiday window I'd like to be in. Lol. Sounds terrible doesn't it, but if like a bfp this month more than any, so I can spend it with my other daughter aswell as possibly a new baby. That does sound terrible: well I'm at a loss this month, on cd22 dtd the last four days, had a day break before that then one day and four in a row and a couple early on. Didn't take opk's on holiday and have checked cm so I have no idea how many dpo I am and have no symptoms what so ever apart from two nights ago I had a severe lower stomach pain that came and went within minutes. That's it. Feeling a little lost, even though it feels good to not be over analysing everything. There's no happy medium is there. When do you girls think I should test before af is due on the 27th it wait?? X x

wispaxmas · 21/10/2013 22:24

m33r, I didn't get sore boobs until I was 6+ wks!! The only real symptom I had pre-bfp was indigestion, and I've still got it on and off Confused

Bloumer · 21/10/2013 22:25

Hi ladies, I've been absent for a while as I realised that I was working myself up every month only to be disappointed...and since I had no AF since coming off the pill in April it was very unlikely my body was settled enough to conceive.

BUT AF finally arrived on Sat, after nearly 7 months! I have never been so pleased to see her. I had 3 days of strong opks a week before, so I must have ovulated (think previous +opks have been LH surges with no OV). It means I had a short luteal phase but I don't really care, I'm taking one step at a time!

I've ordered a bb thermometer so will be charting for the first time this month - hooray! Fx that my cycles become regular soon...

So I'm off to the Nov bus. Good luck ladies, hope I don't see many of you there because you're all getting BFPs!

m33r · 21/10/2013 22:38

missv wait!!! Poas 27th not a minute before!! Don't you be falling to peeing peer pressure!

wispa are you telling me that I can stop squeezing bbs during work in a bid to think 'that's a bit sore' ?? Lol! (Sorry hate that acronym!)

bloumer welcome back! I've missed you and wondered where you'd gone. Happy AF!!! :-) hopefully that and tracking will get you upduffed super soon after a loooooong and frustrating wait! RE lp, I have no idea as I'm a standard 16days but some ladies talk about vit b6 to lengthen??

Missvaughan85 · 22/10/2013 08:40

M33r I will hold out not due to willpower as I have none if that but because I haven't got any sticks in the house, and not likely to have any till Saturday afternoon, so I can wait. Lol is everyone at the party Friday?? Or just a few?? X x

sazzlehopes · 22/10/2013 08:42

missV you are most welcome to do a pre poas with me and some other girls this friday. my af/bfp is due around the 28th...i'm not expecting anything but i have some IC in the house so thought why not on friday... Mama31 has kindly said we can use her house again, and although there were a lot of highs and lows last weekend at the poas friday party - at least there were some highs.
Otherwise I'll be just waiting it out i think to see when damn AF shows up. After 11 months, I find reading a test so much more disappointing sometimes than just being caught out by the witch!

m33r · 22/10/2013 09:09

sazzle I'm the same, I can't take the neg reading anymore... AND I've just worked out that according to a 16day lp (my usual) I'm actually not due AF til 2nd nov but going to sit tight on this bus and test on sat 2nd. Would like to - and may still - wait til 3rd but I find Saturday mornings hard to not poas!

missv no bad thing!

sazzle I'm super upbeat as a rule and try to always be positive. Do you ever worry though - it being 11minths and all - or am I being a bit melodramatic? Mum thinks when I say that it might not happen that I'm being a bit dramatic (or she's terrified that my heart will be broken...)
