oh congrats to everyone with a BFP, it seems like this is a lucky thread to jump on for the first time. FX for more BFP's.

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 15:51

Bex....great news, you must be so excited!!!!Grin

I've got a smiley face in my cb ov test!!! That means I ov earlier than I thought! Does it mean I will ov today? Last time we dtd was Monday :(

BexBoo12 · 05/12/2013 15:53

Thank you everyone. I can't wait now it's confirmed, I can get excited whereas yesterday it was still only a possibility. It's deffo happening now!! Hope AF stays away and I can poas on our wedding day!!

Punky, here, have one on me!!! And congrats on your wedding news!! We can be newlyweds together!! Thanks Xx

BexBoo12 · 05/12/2013 15:57

Oh spinning I can't help you with ov I info I'm afraid, I'm still a beginner! But good luck anyway x

laravh · 05/12/2013 16:05

Congrats polka, fab news!! Smile
And Bex what lovely news, enjoy your special day, who knows... with a bit of luck and lots of dtd maybe you'll have an EXTRA special day! Good luck!
spinning if i were you i'd be inclined to dtd a few more times over the next few days, just to ensure you dont miss it. The cb opks measure the lh surge and dont necessarily pin point the day exactly. Do you have the ones with flashing and fixed smileys?? xx

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 16:13

Laravh thanks for that. It's the fixed smiley one. Just as well I started using them as app says ov on Tuesday! Grin

LittleOwlie · 05/12/2013 16:16

Bex, so pleased you got your confirmation today! It really sounds very magical!

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 16:18

Bex....have you got a dress yet?? I hope you'll share a photo with us on the day....I love weddings!! Ooh you might even get snow!! Do you live near Gretna green? Grin

laravh · 05/12/2013 16:24

I'd be inclined to do it today and tomorow too spinning! Good luck

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 16:31

Thanks lavarh....we shall give it our best shot Grin

Nordicmom · 05/12/2013 16:35

Iucy it was me asking about the the back pain . I've had lots of preg but it was 4 y ago last so don't remember this so well just other symptoms .

bronya · 05/12/2013 16:42

5 days late but still bf so it could just be a long interval between AFs. Determined to wait and not spend ££ on testing - I'll test when I get the morning sickness!!

sazzlehopes · 05/12/2013 16:43

Ok, ladies I'm going to attempt to catc up with you all - but wowzers you lot are chatty!

thisisme welcome back!!! and barmy and missv really hope you all get stronger lines tonight or tomorrow - sounds promising though - I've NEVER had an evap line on any test before so fx crossed for you all!

spinning defo dtd tonight and tomorrow and then see how you feel - maybe tuesday too for luck - keep your app happy! think you're supposed to ov any time in the next 36 hours after first fixed smiley as everyone is a bit different.

polka - hooray for your bfp - can we have some details please? dtd days if you haven't shared already and i missed it in all the chat!

bexboo congrats on getting the new years eve date - that will be just so special. i think it sounds amazing to elope, and I hope so much you get a bfp that eve too!

catface as a fellow cbfm always nice to hear a success story from that machine!

lucyfluff · 05/12/2013 16:50

and how are you sazzle??

nordic - hows your back now. I can only say I feel your pain if its a bfp...back pain was quite bad but its for a reason all changing down there Grin maybe take a couple of paracetemol and see if it eases? fingers crossed for you x

Bex - good news on the booking...you will be manic now sorting your dress and other plans how exciting, I really miss planning a wedding lol Grin

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 16:52

Thanks Sazzle.....I've text dp and told him we need to dtd as much as possible for the next few daysWinkGrin

spinningirl10 · 05/12/2013 16:53

Also, I'm the same as Sazzle, never had an evap line so good luck ladiesGrin

ThisIsMeNow · 05/12/2013 17:22

Bronya, have you been having regular periods? Just wondering how bf affects things?

MundayCakes85 · 05/12/2013 17:25

Congratulations to all the confirmed BFPs, looking forward to a few more tomorrow with the maybe lines! This bus seems to be picking up speed!
Bex- congratulations on the wedding confirmation, eloping sounds v romantic and fun. Don't know how you're managing to keep it secret in RL!
I'm 6dpo and last night after DTD (not overly rough/ adventurous!) I had a bit of pink cm/man juice (sorry TMI!) when wiping. Obviously this is definitely a symptom Grin hehe.
Who else is symptom spotting in their 2ww?

Hopemummi · 05/12/2013 18:00

Congratulations polka!!!! Spread the luck around!!

Spinning - advice is to Dtd every other day so swimmers are in good health and swimming when your eggs out there! It is tempting to go at it on your key days though and be really embarrassing put your feet up afterwards - literally!! Smile

Missvaughan85 · 05/12/2013 18:10

I'd advice dtd for at least four days after smile on cb, I heard that it picks up on initial LH surge but some one told me you could ovulate within the next 24-48 hrs, that's what I've been doing, an hopefully it'll work out!!!

Missvaughan85 · 05/12/2013 18:11

No sign of af here either fx
