Missmrs there may always be a line on an opk when it comes to using them!

If it's pos for pg, the lines have to be as dark as each other and show a positive result.

Oh thank you choccy! Just had a moment of madness. It's too early to test and those are the wrong tests and it was after the wait time anyway so completely pointless really! Just felt like doing it as I'm bored of the 2ww!

sazzlehopes · 13/03/2014 14:10

Missmrs, thankyou for peeing on something. But yes maybe hold out just a few more days for a more realistic result!!

Sparrowlegs248 · 13/03/2014 14:17

Bloody hell my post vanished!!

toots glad I'm not the only one who may will struggle to give up the wine! I have a couple of glasses most nights.

Most impressed by the restraint shown here nicx and spotti!! Well done!

Just met the parentals for lunch. Sat there waiting for food to arrive

Sparrowlegs248 · 13/03/2014 14:19

Damn posted too soon!

Anyway, felt nauseaus and slighy lightheaded while waiting for food, but ok once i had eaten. Thought i was going to have to go out for fresh air!

Mother was irritating, telling me i should be pregnany and might need to lose weight. I could lise a stone byt am 5'7 and size 14!!! Hardly the end of the world surely? I also exercise 4 times a week and ride regularly. Huurumph.

missmrsmummy · 13/03/2014 14:21

Thanks sazzle so confused by my cycle so had to do something! Spotting due tomo and full AF mon but hoping for longer cycles since changed vits so spotting due mon? Wishing my life away here!

MrBsMrsB · 13/03/2014 14:44

English Smile

I'm here - just being really quiet till I update stats tomorrow. If I'm correct - we have a total of 7 BFPs..... So we defo need a couple more to catch up with today's date, fx spotti & nicx

I had a teary more of a full blown sob drive into work today. a "why me" kind of cry. I have friends who get sneezed on and get pg. i dtd every other day, consume a lifetimes worth of tablets over a 26 day cycle, take venos even tough I'm not ill and still cant seem to get my bfp.

I'm normally quite positive - but today has been a shite day for me. TBH, I just want to go home and watch TV with a blanket and a cup of tea. I'm back round to CD6 should really be on the April bus and I just feel like I'm wasting my time and my life away even thinking about ttc. I'm on "cycle 4" but been off the pill since Feb 2013 and was a "if it happens - it happens" kinda girl. So you could say technically its been just over a year and nothing. NOTHING. I'm sorry for such a negative post. I just needed a mini rant. I've had 21 day bloods etc and it all seems fine what does "fne" even mean DH has to do his swimmers next.

I really need to get home and cry if i don't make it home, I'll go to the ladies

kurama · 13/03/2014 14:44

afternoon all!!! happy me today. (tmi sorry) but normally i find a small amount of blood while dtd about 2 days before af turns up.and... no blood this morn :) now breasts still telling me it should be soon. roll on sat ! woooo! waves massive green pompoms around like the weirdo i am

Spotti · 13/03/2014 14:45

Had OH texting me on his lunch break asking when I was testing next...I said Sunday, he said (and I quote) "Tomorrow? First wee?". I had to tell him off for tempting me! Naughty OH. I get too sad when I get a single lonely line :(.

Feeling seriously sick and bloated at the mo and keep getting weird stabby 'almost AF-like' pains down below...could that be AF or does that sound like something more promising? cos clearly you penis dragon loving MN-ers are better are diagnosing a pregnancy than a silly pregnancy test Grin

Suppose only time will tell...

I'm hanging on for my 16th of March BFP slot (so bugger off AF if it is you upsetting me today!)

Sparrowlegs248 · 13/03/2014 14:56

Oh sorry you are feeling like that mrbs its truly shitty. I said before, my optimism waxes and wanes like the moon, literally. Currently not feeling too bad myself but will be drifting into doubt the closer i get to af.

Can you pop out for 5 minutes? Its a lovely day here and a quick stroll out in the sun always perks me up (as opposed to moping at my desk).

So, given the fat comment frommy mum, I have a new reason to want a bfp!! (lighthearted) In that the diet can feck off!! I will still try to eat healthily of course but won't be trying to lose weight.

EnglishGirlAbroad · 13/03/2014 15:16

Sorry you're feeling rubbish MrBsMrsB, I have moments like that too. Its crap!! I'm on cycle 6, I never thought it would take this long. I know tecnically i've had a bfp but i thought i'd be merrily upduffed by now!!
I find i'm wishing my life away too, either waiting for ov, or for af!! But you will get there MrBs. I'm positive of that. But we're here when you're feeling down.

I'm feeling fairly positive. Not that this is my month, but just about it all in general. I'm a positive person and I will do all that it takes to get my baby. I just need to remember that sometimes.

Choccy - love that your phone already predicts fannywaxerreturns!! Got a couple of months before I can officially adopt that yet though!!

gennibugs · 13/03/2014 15:49

MrBsMrsB sorry you are feeling like that. I think we all have days where we feel like that. I can literally be so ultra positive one day and then really overwhelmed and low the next by it all and the pressure Im feeling.

cth1982 · 13/03/2014 16:44

hey mrsb big hugs - we def all have days like that - last month when AF came I just thought I had left it too late and was totally broken and why should DH stay around if I can't produce anything etc.

This month I'm feeling better - have started charting my temps so know I am actually ovulating and that it will probably take time for things to happen but I know it will for all of us!

toots123 · 13/03/2014 16:44

nottalotta I have wine chilling as I type!!! (In the freezer to speed up the process haha)

question for you all. Today was second flashing smiley. If (for example) I get a solid smiley tomorrow, when would ov happen? Or is it best to go with cm and ov pains to pin point it as best I can?

MrsExtraOrdinary · 13/03/2014 16:51

MrBsMrsB ThanksBrew I'm sorry today has an overwhelming rubbishness about it for you. I honestly remember so clearly the desperation last time. 18mts post mc it did happen. I was both shocked and amazed and then thought fuck it, because I'd turned my life into a non baby world , while waiting. If there aren't any medical reasons why it's not happening then try to have faith that it will happen in the end.

Treaclepie19 · 13/03/2014 16:53

Hi all,
Feeling rubbish today...
Last week had a day off with a viral infection and today ive got an ulcer under my tongue, sore throat and my gland is swollen.
So swollen that you can see it. Gets worse after eating so going to the doctors. Soo painful :(

Hope all is ok!

Sparrowlegs248 · 13/03/2014 17:06

toots I too have wine chilling in the spa shop fridge

Grin
Nordicmom · 13/03/2014 17:07

Haven't read through last pages yet . Got to do dinner first .
I'm late with ov which is unusual too like my early period . I think I must have conceived last month with all the symptoms I had and it screwed everything up for this month cycle . We'll see . I've never missed an ov with the cb tests they've always worked for me like clockwork .
Very stressed and depressed . DS acting up and dd a bit sick . My illness is still worse and am trying to take a higher dose of my meds . Not quite so nauseous anymore just on and off but very dizzy after a long day . I just want to get her to bed and go hide in bed myself ....

missmrsmummy · 13/03/2014 17:22

Sorry today has been immensely crap for quite a few of you Thanks

Hope we get some good news tomorrow. Plus it's Friday!

KittyVonCatsington · 13/03/2014 17:47

Had OH texting me on his lunch break asking when I was testing next...I said Sunday, he said (and I quote) "Tomorrow? First wee?". I had to tell him off for tempting me! Naughty OH

Wish my DH was that interested/excited! Think he's just DTD to please me Grin

Hope you are feeling better MrsB lots of Virtual hugs

Loving the line getting darker, Choccy-Get in!

KittyVonCatsington · 13/03/2014 17:52

How rotten for you, Nordic-keep OPK testing and you might hit the surge still. Thinking of you.

KittyVonCatsington · 13/03/2014 17:58

toots-if you get a solid smiley tomorrow, ovulation would be between 12 to 26 hours (usually 24hrs for most). So keep DTD as you want sperm waiting and I've always DTD 5 days on and after the solid smiley too (worked last cycle!).

3rd flashing smiley for me at CD15 today...

KittyVonCatsington · 13/03/2014 17:59

Should read 36 hours not 26

Will stop spamming the thread Blush

PolytheneGirl · 13/03/2014 18:41

Oh dear, I think I need to share my chocolate fudge cake with you all today Cake

Tuck in ladies x

Sparrowlegs248 · 13/03/2014 18:47

And for those partaking.... Wine

Cheers!
