The Rules...

(1) A lady may only POAS on a Friday.
(2) Friday means the day that everyone calls Friday in the time zone where you spent the night.
(3) Rule (1) does not apply to POA-OPK-S, UNLESS they are being illegitimately used as surrogate HCG detectors, in which case Rule (1) most definitely does apply
(4) Rule (1) does not apply following a BFP because if you want to waste £25 a day POADigiS that's your prerogative
(5) Rule (1) does not apply if a lady is POAS in an attempt to get a BFN to prove she can start DTD with intent
(6) Rule (1) does not apply if a lady wants for unknown reason to pee on an actual stick, like a twig or some such, if that lady is unexpectedly caught short whilst tramping in the forest looking for bears.
(7) These rules (including Rule (1)) are subject to the change at any time if the ladies of the Posifrickentivity thread decide on a whim come up with empirical evidence to prove that it is luckier to POAS on any other day of the week
(8) Violators of Rule (1) shall be subject to fish throwing.

And as a grand finale, why not pledge to NEVER POAS before 14DPO?

Oh triple that is terrible! Please ask 'well, is he pregnant or miscarrying, as if yes then he needs a seat otherwise perhaps let someone who actually might need it'

sebs yes - so stop driving yourself insane and go and buy a decent test! DO IT! Whatever though, you are unlikely to get that many evaps... Grin

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 09:48

Triple Angry at those rude people. Hope your appointment goes well.

sebsmummy1 · 21/03/2014 10:06

OMG Triple that is unbelievable!! I am constantly shocked at just how rude people are. Thing is if you are feeling strong you might feel feisty enough to call them out on it, but when you are emotionally drained and sad the last thing you want is an argument.

Hand holding.

TeaRex · 21/03/2014 10:52

Welcome to jet and jones sorry you're here but it is a fab place to recover

triple Jesus, what's wrong with some people! Hope it goes as okay as it can for the rest of the day.

sebs get a decent test!!!! Quick!!! I'm off to see friends for the weekend and I neeeeeeeed to know lol, am thinking positive thoughts for you, we need some BFP's on here :)

Best of luck to any other testers lurking and I'll try and keep up with the thread over the weekend it's not like I'm addicted to hearing about other ladies tith, poas habits or such like, oh no other wise I'll have pages and pages to read on Monday :)

Triplespin · 21/03/2014 11:53

fedup lol I wish I had said that. I never think of these things in the moment !!

sebs please get a frer and test. I cannot imagine you getting evap lines multiple times. FX that its a bfp and a boring text book pregnancy.

tea enjoy your weekend away with your friends.

I survived and good news - its all clear. Lining measured 5.8mm. Last miscarriage it was 7.6mm. Not sure if that means anything or not ! Anyway CUTO - the wait for AF begins !

sebsmummy1 · 21/03/2014 12:14

I've left my wee wee pot from this morning on the windowsill lol so I may go into town and get some proper tests. It is a lovely day!! My nipples just keep fizzing on and off so something is going on.

So sorry this has happened Triple. I found the 'all clear' scan a great relief also. My local hospital was very good though and had masses of seating thankfully! I just went in there and kept my head down from memory. Hope AF or OV happens soon for you.

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 12:35

Anyone interested in joining me in my newly formed support group 'boob poking addicts not very anonymous'? Literally. Cannot. Stop. Poking. Blush

Another milesto

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 12:37

Whoops trigger happy post. That was meant to read 'another milestone reached Triple sorry you're going through this.

Seasides · 21/03/2014 12:50

Just 'pooping' in, work's been crazy. sebs crack a frer out please! You need to do something with that little pot of wee so you may as well shove a stick in it!

Sorry to see new faces, hope you stay 1/10th of the time I've been here and take a lot of comfort while you are.

Glad to hear you have a tidy womb now triple hope a bean signs the tenancy soon.

MissHobart · 21/03/2014 12:56

Penguin - I'll join that please! Surely the act of poking is a symptom in itself? Hmm

No poas today as I can't deal with it! Waiting until I'm late so save on the menkul, due on Tuesday either way! Hmm

broodylicious · 21/03/2014 13:57

Oooh sebs how exciting!!! Fx for you hun. Hurry up and get poa (posh) s so we can get some whoop whoops in here Grin

triple, I'm properly Angry for you.

Can't remember who asked me the other day whether I responded to that vile bitch. I did - I wished her all the best with her pregnancy...so that she never had to understand how incredibly insensitive her message was. And then, sal I did mutter quite a few times that naughty C word I can't possibly type or repeat Wink ooh it felt gooooood!!

Cakebaker35 · 21/03/2014 14:12

Oh sebs yes to buying a decent test, it sounds very promising for you indeed trying hard not to whoop loudly Flowers

triple so many rude f*ckers about, just unbelievable. Glad the scan went well then, onwards and upwards eh!

office I currently cannot get my head around ttc again just yet. Certainly not in a very organised way, iyswim. My feeling at the mo is to try and have a normal ish AF whenever that will be and then just not prevent it but not 'try' for a while just to give us an emotional break. Feel like we need to just focus on having a healthy sex life again rather than making it all about ttc. I may change my mind in about 30 seconds but that's where my head is today. I feel terrified about getting pregnant again if I'm honest, I don't know how I'd stop worrying about mmc, but will cross that bridge if it happens - and I'll no doubt be here like a gibbering wreck if so! But I am an old girl, soon to turn 38, so in reality I can't wait forever...

Welcome to all the newbies I've missed, you'll get great support and some comedy gold here too despite the circumstances we all find ourselves in.

Carly6971 · 21/03/2014 14:36

Sebs I totally second everyone...get a posh stick! X

Littlelady33 · 21/03/2014 14:37

Broody that's so restrained of you. But I would probably have been very English and polite about it and done the same.
Cake I totally see where you're coming from. We're trying straight away because I feel a physical need to be pregnant again, and I know it's the only thing that will really make me feel right again. But as someone said earlier on this thread the innocence of it has gone for me! The moment I'm pregnant again god willing I know it will be several weeks of constant worry. So I do wonder if I'm emotionally up to it.

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 15:23

Sad today. It should have been the 37th birthday of my smart, caring and wonderful friend and colleague who was murdered by her ex-partner three years ago Sad. Even three years on I can't believe it happened.

EnglishGirlAbroad · 21/03/2014 15:28

Oh penguin, that's awful! Why don't you go and buy a balloon, sit in a park and take a moment to remember her and then send her balloon up to her. I do it for my nan and it helps me. And then enjoy a glass of wine in her memory. Sending you a hug

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 15:44

Thanks English that sounds like a lovely peaceful way to mark the date. I feel desperately sad for her surviving twin and family. Appropriately enough it seems like AF has decided to make an early appearance on CD7 as I just discovered some blood tinged CM while having a rummage so a glass of wine might be just the ticket. Every month I lie to myself about how the early light bleeding could be IB but I know it isn'tSad.

Triplespin · 21/03/2014 16:00

penguin that is an incredibly sad story. I do like english's idea to mark the date. Do you mean cd7 or 7dpo? I am thinking the latter rather than the former! That surely sounds like IB to me. Fx. It can't be AF so very early. Hopefully you can poas on Friday. And yes given sebs doubts over the ics, I recommend everyone buys some frer.
The bogof deal at boots sounds great. I might stick up too!!

Penguin13 · 21/03/2014 16:12

She was an amazing woman, so incredibly passionate about what she believed in. She'd just come back from a mission to Pakistan with the Red Cross when she died and you just knew she was going to change the world one day.

Yep I did mean 7dpo Blush. Think I am suffering acronym fatigue.

miserywaterfall · 21/03/2014 16:19

sebs Come on sort it out, I just scrolled through three pages and was waiting for you to have peed on a frer or something and nothing! (waits patiently...ish)

Penguin hugs to you, your poor friend Sad

I forget who was asking, I think sebs about cramps before AF post mc and that is one thing I noticed last month, I was cramping madly for days before it which I have never had in pre-mc days. Annoying.

Cake glad your erpc went well, no follow up appointment for me either, took 12 days for a BFN.

Welcome to the new folks too, sorry you've had to join but I have laughed out loud at some of the stuff posted here so it's a good place to be at such a shiteous time.

Hope everyone's alright and I for one am so glad the weekend is HERE!

Metalhead · 21/03/2014 16:19

Penguin I'm so sorry about your friend, that's just so awful! I don't really know what to say. Hopefully this spotting isnt AF though, that would just be putting the boot in today.

sebsmummy1 · 21/03/2014 16:54

Oh Penguin I am so sorry Sad. I think it's particularly shocking when I violent crime happens to someone you know as opposed to something you read in a newspaper. I think that as long as someone is remembering you then you're not gone. I am sure she is around you still supporting you.

Well girls I'm really sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Superdrug, he say no. I have pulled the thing apart and held it up to every source of light I could find but I can't even see a grey evap line !!!! Infuriating. Luckily I'm faintly amused as opposed to devastated as this is why you should test early, it's a total roller coaster of highs and lows. I should have just done what women have been going for centuries and waited for AF to appear.

I suspect she will be here in a few days. So I am going to eat cake and watch trash TV to cheer myself up Grin

sebsmummy1 · 21/03/2014 16:55

*Shouldn't test early

broodylicious · 21/03/2014 17:18

Hugs for penguin I love the balloon idea also, think that's a perfect way to show her you're thinking of her. What a cruel world it is Hmm xxx

Cakebaker35 · 21/03/2014 17:32

penguin that is so sad, I'm so sorry. Definitely a great idea about the ballon followed by a glass of her favourite tiple I'd say.

Ah sebs what to say....shite! As you once said to me, it ain't over til the witch appears tho....

Happy Friday everyone. I plan to have my first alcoholic beverage since December to tonight whilst watching gardener's world, I'm so rock and roll and will pass out after one glass
