Welcome aboard ladies!
Get your pom poms in the air, as well as your ass (post dtd!) and we might get somewhere!
Here's to some BFPs! Wine

Eek that article puts me off testing early!

I'm sure I'll be very sensible and wait if my period is late

Our local boots is sold out too! Is everyone ttc?? Or reading this totally awesome thread Grin?

Going to try and hunt them down at the boots nr my work tomorrow?

My recent pregnancy was only picked up on FRERs. The EC that claimed to be 10mlu only picked it up much later, just before it started dropping, and was V faint.

broodysnoopstie · 05/03/2014 20:52

katecup so funny. Grin

rambini · 05/03/2014 21:00

Thanks for the article kitty it made for a very interesting read!
I especially loved the part that said If you elect to take the test as early as the day after you've missed your period, remember that a negative result isn't 100 percent certain
Hahaha who are these people who think that an early test is the day AFTER you are due on?! not like we are crazy people who test 6dpo or anything Hmm

JonesSchool · 05/03/2014 21:02

During playground duty I was pooed on..... By a bird! I hope it's a good luck sign for this bus!
Luckily I then got to miss my playground duty and go and wash my head!

PolytheneGirl · 05/03/2014 21:07

7dpo here and been suffering terrible stomach cramp and back pain for a couple of days. Absolutely no idea what the heck is going on in there. Very tempted to poas in the morning even though I KNOW it's a waste of a stick!

Anyone else had/have cramps at this stage? It's really worrying me that something might be wrong.

Serenitysutton · 05/03/2014 21:12

Hi all I forgot about OBEM so going to catch up now! I am peeing on a stick every day, no ovulation. Still making DH have sex every day. We're going away this weekend to relax and put some serious effort in!

impatienceisavirtue · 05/03/2014 21:17

I was chuckling at that too - I was testing by 6dpo

EnglishGirlAbroad · 05/03/2014 21:19

So sorry Lemon.

No bloody FRER's here in AMsterdam, so when the time comes wil have to rely on a cb digi. Got some IC's to pee on first though. Will then crack open a digi when im certain. It WILL be my turn this month. Poor dh is knackered with all this dtd. And still a fair few days left, no peak yet!!

RetroHippy · 05/03/2014 21:21

Choccy, in my opinion, ass tastes of cherry flavoured cough medicine!

impatience, I was going to ask if anyone had suggested that, if it works for women's cm, should have the same effect on the menz. Hope it works!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 05/03/2014 21:29

The good news is I convinced dh to dtd 3 times in 48 hrs! The bad news is we've now had a tiff so he will be in a sulk for a bit! In fact I think he may have instigated the tiff so he could have a night off! Mind you he got called on emergency last night so dtd had to wait until he got home at 1.30. I only had 5 hrs sleep up a pillow, completely shattered so in fact I'm not entirely cross but will let dh believe he has the stamina of a small ant! Angry

KittyVonCatsington · 05/03/2014 21:35

Not got as far as watching the videos-worried it might put me off TTC, missmrs! Stock up on at least one FRER. You will need it this month-I can feel it Smile

RetroHippy · 05/03/2014 21:37

Wow, I'm impressed! That is certainly an extraOrdinary effort!

We missed two days the days before I got a positive OPK. I shall now be agonising about it until I get my bfp. We did at least DTD the day of the OPK and will be doing it for the next three days so hoping we caught it.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 05/03/2014 21:40

Go for it retro! Dh has never had a high sex drive so I have to keep reminding him that unless he's hoping for immaculate conception I require assistance! Wink

kurama · 05/03/2014 21:52

so sorry lemon Sad yer it would be nice if I got a bfp out of all the pain. only around 5dpo so no temptation yet to poas even tho I have loads. btw whats the tests called your all on about the frer (*sp) on phone so cant look at posts while writing msgs. x

missmrsmummy · 05/03/2014 22:02

kurama first response early result. Supposedly the most sensitive!

Thanks kitty that actually made me smile so much! Really hope you're right! Fx

bellaboo88 · 05/03/2014 22:09

3isour.....I can't handle the over excitement of poas, if & when I do pee in my herb pot I hope this test will be a positive one...and positive in excitement too. It became a daily ritual, piac, dip, squint & see imaginary lines on the stark white bit

I've cramped every day since ov practically, never had this (third month off pill)

Really clutching at straws tho, I'm gunna miss MN (whilst I have my Xmas baby avoidance break) & when I come back, you'll all have graduated to preggers threads :-( enjoying helping friend shop for maternity clothes tho & having cuddles with friends newborn...I will not get jealous!!

Either way, I'll know by this time next week, test or no test, there's either a bean or no bean...cd29/10dpo today x

missmrsmummy · 05/03/2014 22:44

Fx for you bella!

Treaclepie19 · 05/03/2014 22:55

Just popping in to say hi!
Had a busy day at work.

Hope all is ok.
So sorry lemon :(

CagedMango · 05/03/2014 23:00

I'm sorry to hear that lemon Thanks

katecupoftea · 06/03/2014 06:58

A new day, any new BFPs? Anyone testing today?

lindamagoo · 06/03/2014 07:05

pre af spotting started last night girls so I'm defo out this month. The boys are away to granny's next weekend Fri to Mon and I'm going to have an absolute ball on my night out in the hope that it's my last for a long time, I have a good feeling about the next bus for me Smile

MrsY87 · 06/03/2014 07:23

Sorry to those of you who are having a hard time this month.

Had spotting mon & tues but nothing since, AF due yesterday and no signs of her. POAS this morning not sure if there was a very very faint second line or if my mind is playing tricks on me as I want it so much! will test again on Saturday if I can hold out that long! Feeling very much in limbo...could the spotting have been implantation bleeding?
