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?

Good autocorrect dudette. Originally booked in for both external and internal due to the vague suspicion of PCOS, so will endure my first dildocam experience.

sebsmummy1 · 28/02/2014 15:47

I hardly notices the vaginal probe lol. Shows what a bucket fanny I am Blush

Seasides · 28/02/2014 16:01

Ha ha sebs-well, I lost my virginity to the first (no joke, so traumatic!) and the 2nd was painful coz of ectopic, so they're probably normally fine. They should use conceive plus for them, DH says it makes me like a wizard's sleeve Blush Grin

OttersPocket · 28/02/2014 16:01

I've had soooooo many dildo-cam sessions over the past two years I hardly notice anymore either Blush

My very first D-cam was a bit embarrassing. The doctor asked if a medical student could sit in on the scan. I said of course. Two minutes later 3 very young male medical students walked into the room where I had my chuff out! GrinBlush

Metalhead · 28/02/2014 16:03

I'm with you sebs on the dildo cam! Grin

Triplespin · 28/02/2014 17:29

Good luck sarnie how far along will you be by then?

As for me the spotting and cramping started again, was under a lot if stress at work (and I wonder if that caused it). Anyhow looks like it may be coming to an end very early. Hope not though.

Sorry for the lack of personals.

Metalhead · 28/02/2014 17:45

Oh no Triple, I'm so sorry! Take it easy and rest up if you can, fx the cramping will stop again soon.

picklebum2011 · 28/02/2014 17:45

Ah no triple, will they check your bloods again? A Romeo cam love it!! Could masking teaching Romeo and Juliet interesting.

picklebum2011 · 28/02/2014 17:47

Ah I can`t type on my tablet.

Parsley2506 · 28/02/2014 18:01

triple get yourself to bed and stay put for a while, and try (I know, I know) to relax as far as you can. Hopefully it's just the embie burrowing in to get nice and comfy. Sending you hope and posifrickentivity lovely.

Argh. Just opened my gmail to find yet another email from Emma's Diary. I unsubscribed weeks ago, they're so bloody shit. This time I followed the instructions at the end of the email for a more immediate unsubscribe (which, frankly, is ridiculous. The link in the email should be just as immediate. Has no one there thought about why someone might want to leave?! Dicks) - however this involved logging in.
I naively hoped as it was a log in page straight from an unsubscribe link that once I'd logged in I'd be taken straight to my account settings. Oh no, I had to go to the 'look how big your baby is this week' page first.

Fucking fuck off you fucking fucks

Angry

I have sent them a ranty email.

That is awful Parsley I am so Angry on your behalf. Fuckers. Glad you ranted at them, they deserve it.

Triple I can only imagine how you're feeling. Rest up lovely and try to stay as calm as you can. Thinking of you.

Thank you whoever it was who pointed out that sometimes people say things without thinking cause they don't know. It's good to remember. Dammit why aren't we those people who don't know any better any more?

Sal1977 · 28/02/2014 21:21

Evening all!

Tonight we ate babysitting my friends 5mo who was born on what should have been my due date. I agree that baby is easy to deal with compared to what the bump was (I refused to see her when she was preggers after my MC).

The hardest thing about tonight has been waiting 1hr 50 mins (so far) for a pizza to be delivered! Bloody starving!!!!!

Sal1977 · 28/02/2014 21:22
  • we ARE babysitting not eating the baby. Although I am bloody hungry....
Misspositivity · 28/02/2014 22:28

parsley one finger salute to Emma and her crap diary is in order.
sal I know what you mean. I had a wee 10 week old last sat overnight and tbh it was lovely. Feeding every 3 hours was not so lovely!!! Hope your pizza arrives soon
triple I am keeping everything crossed for you. X

EnglishGirlAbroad · 28/02/2014 22:53

Evening Ladies!! Haven't been on for a couple of days as i've had guests.

So sorry that you've re-joined us Tanny, hopefully though this will kickstart things so you can find the light at the end f your tunnel. Good luck! Take it easy for now and look after yourself.

Triple - sorry it looks like things are ending badly for you. I really hope it's a positive ending for you.

Had a friend over from school, learnt she mc'd in nov. Nice to talk to someone in rl who is in the same position. As much as i wouldnt ever wish this shit on anyone.

Chin up, tits out ladies!! Smile

Viperama · 28/02/2014 23:07

Hi All - I'm a super newbie on here. No idea what half the abbreviations everyone is referring to mean. Is there a jargon guide somewhere?
Anyway I'm 38 started TTC #1 January 2014, conceived first go, natural miscarriage started 18/2/14 stopped 23/2/14.
It happened all so quickly I was so excited and now I'm totally deflated wondering when the heck I'll ovulate so we can start trying again. Just hope I haven't left it too long to catch the baby bus :-(

CorporeSarnie · 01/03/2014 06:42

triple, my thoughts are with you Thanks. Hope you managed to get a good rest last night, stay in bed as long as you need to. I still have my fingers crossed for you. Is there any chance of your getting to EPU again soon to check bloods?
viper, glad you have found this thread but sorry you have need to be here. Sadly I think it only gets you quite like that once, it is much harder to get as excited on the other side. MN has lots of abbreviations:www.mumsnet.com/info/acronyms
there are some thread-specific ones, TITH being the most commonly used (see thread title).
Still telling myself 'today I am pregnant'. Wide awake at 6.20. Who knows, maybe dildocam will be good for me, at least will tell us location.

CorporeSarnie · 01/03/2014 06:44

Link fail, that'll teach me for not previewing:

DoctorDonnaNoble · 01/03/2014 07:24

So, DH is worse. Stupid doc only gave him amoxycillin and no blood tests. So now a week later he's had to have the blood tests and different anti-biotics. So it's looking like a total of 3 weeks, at least, ill. And, because life is shit the first week of his illness coincided with AF so that's him ill for all my fertile days this month. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!

TeaRex · 01/03/2014 08:16

Oh Donna that's really shit :( I'm really sorry the last two months have been crap, surely it only means things can get better? Im trying to think positive today :)
triple fx for you all is better this morning x
sal you're very brave babysitting a baby born on your due date! I salute you, I know two people due around when I was and am bricking it this will happen to me so you've shown me that I will be okay whatever happens in that respect so thank you :) hope you got your pizza too! 1.5 hours, I'd been eating the cupboard doors by that point.
parsley get your husband to do a mahoosive shit in a box and post it to Emma's-fucking-diary, they're just one big pissing Argos catalogue anyhow the twats.

Viperama · 01/03/2014 09:41

Thank you for the link CorporeSarnie that's much better Smile
How's this for a shocker, was so early on we didn't tell any friends we were expecting. However 4 days after MC I hosted my best mates baby shower! Of 14 guests, 4 were pregnant. You couldn't make it up. It made me stare my demon down and I am stronger, I figure there is no social situation I can be thrown in while TTC after a MC that will be worse!?

sebsmummy1 · 01/03/2014 09:45

FFS I am still showing a faint positive on my ultra early 10 miu tests even though I have nearly finished bleeding. I felt sure once i was done with AF or whatever this is is be showing a true negative.

I'm scared I won't be able to ovulate with hcg in my system even though it must be a tiny amount now. So fucked off.

Parsley2506 · 01/03/2014 09:48

tea I might just do that! Twats!

sal high five for you, I don't know if I could've done that. Hope it was a pepperoni passion mmmm!

doctor what a crappy situation. I guess try and think of it as a free pass to let your womb extra comf-ify itself and to do lots of the stuff you wouldn't allow if you had to deal with 2ww?

english it's always good to have someone IRL to talk to. I have one friend who MCed just before I did. We didn't actually know each other that well then but we've become quite close now. It's nice! (IYSWIM!)

viper sorry you lost your baby, I wish you a short stay here. As well as TITH (our way of saying DTD) you might also see the odd CUTO which is chin up tits out and is basically our motto for everything!!

Picking up my new specs today. Been having lots of headaches at work recently so hopefully this will help! Then, tonight is date night with a trip to a lovely new wine bar in town, dinner at a Lebanese and then TITH woop woop!

Parsley2506 · 01/03/2014 09:51

X post - sebs how many weeks has it been since the MC now? Was it declared complete?

Viper - that is proper hardcore. Well done you!!!
