Zermatt you have patience of a saint.

I'm still awake with this silly flu thing, which has given me horrid earache. Currently got one hot water bottle on my ear and other on my tummy, hopefully cooking a bean. Dh saw the hot water bottles and ran to the freezer for ice lollies! Grin

EnglishGirlAbroad · 18/03/2014 23:29

Zermatt.... Get yourself a hpt tomorrow!! Dark OPK around BFP due date IS a symptom!! Grin

Gingerbreadlady1 · 18/03/2014 23:32

zermatt sounds to me like you're cooking a bean but you're not gonna know for certain till you poas. Do it do it!!!

Zermatt · 18/03/2014 23:45

Here's the OPK, am going to wait until tomorrow but if I don't get AF by end of work I'll pick up a test on my way home. What's the best type to get?

FRER seem to be popular, or CB digi. Good luck!

Zermatt · 19/03/2014 01:35

Ok, so clearly will just keep posting in here while you are all in the land of nod.

Choccy, so glad you are feeling a bit better and had a good day, your trip to Singapore and the F1 sounds amazing, have you been there before?

Jones, sorry that AF got you, I have bought that book as well and am half way through it, I started taking the fish oil as well after reading it. It's quite a comforting read and I like the way she pulls apart the statistics and looks at where the research has been conducted and whether it is credible or not. Made me feel a bit better about lots of things.

I like the thought of a TTC Sherlock and Holmes investigating all symptoms!

My DH is showing a bit more interest in all my secret ttc business (as he calls it) this cycle, he's been asking me what the temps in my chart mean and this morning he wanted to know if it was still high or if it had dipped yet. When I said its still high he was like "so what does that mean" then I told him about the positive OPK's and he wants to know what that means as well, I asked him when he thinks I should test with a proper test and he said in 3 weeks! Sometimes I wonder about him, I really do.

Zermatt · 19/03/2014 01:35

Also impatience are you testing again today? xx

Zermatt · 19/03/2014 03:25

No need to buy a proper test, AF is just starting, so that's that then.

On the plus side my luetal phase is up a day, and my cycle is a bit longer, must be due to all the vitamins. Feel quite fed up and cross with myself as yet again at the end of the 2ww I convinced myself I was going to get a BFP. :(

RetroHippy · 19/03/2014 03:55

Massive temp dip this morning, so I thnk I'm out too Sad

Zermatt · 19/03/2014 05:07

I hope not retro x

ItsChristmaass · 19/03/2014 06:03

Choccy, I hope your okay Thanks
Sorry to those who are out. Zermatt I was sure you would get a bfp!
I'm not doing too good. Have to go for a "emergency" scan this week as I may be having a ectopic or suspected cyst getting too big Hmm
Been in so much pain the past few days and I'm 99.9% sure I'm not gonna get my bfp this cycle. So stressed out.

RetroHippy · 19/03/2014 06:50

And AF is here Sad so all the shit has just been because I was ill.

Fuck it, little Eve Noël it is then.

Choccywoccydodah · 19/03/2014 06:53

Oh no retro!! Is that it then or will you still poas?

It's christmas I hope everything is ok you must be in agony!
When is your scan, surely they should have you in for an emergency scan like now!

Zermatt I don't understand the pos opk then af. Could it be implantation bleeding?
Yes been to singas a few times, love it. Dh proposed to me in raffles Grin
We'd live there if we were allowed, bloody love the place!! but I think we'd be broke But when dh was born, his parents didn't choose dual nationality due to you having to do national service when you were 18 for 2 years. The year he was 17, they stopped it!! Such a shame.
He was there til he was 5, so he remembers it well.

Anyone peeing today?

Choccywoccydodah · 19/03/2014 06:54

Retro for fucking fucks sake. Is it a proper flow? Thanks

katecupoftea · 19/03/2014 06:58

I wake up, come on here and it's doom and gloom. zermatt and retro so sorry that miserable old bitch got you, was feeling so hopeful about you both. Guess they weren't SYMPTOMS. Hope you both stick around to help cheer the rest of us on!
its christmas that sounds awful. Hope they get you seen ASAP!

I dreamt abou BFPs last night. This 2ww is loooooong.

RetroHippy · 19/03/2014 07:00

I've just decided, I'm not going to chart or OPK this cycle. I've got a good idea when I ovulate so I think I'm going for 'just shagging'. We've got a lot on for the next few weeks, and my due date would be Christmas Day (!) so if it's meant to be, it will happen, if not, we'll be back on it next cycle.

And I'm not even going to think about testing before AF is due. It just makes me agonise for those last few days.

Writerwannabe83 · 19/03/2014 07:00

Morning all, I'm just popping in to have a catch up!!

Congratulations impatience -that's a great line for such early days!!

Sorry Retro and Zermatt to read that AF arrived Thanks

choccy - I'm glad you had a lovely time at the Zoo, they're great places to visit. It's good that your Professor has said it's fine for you to continue with TTC and I hope you soon get your happy outcome!!

I'm just getting ready to go to the hospital to have my final scan/monitoring done of the baby before the Big Day on Friday. Feeling soooooo nervous as in shitting myself scared now!!

RetroHippy · 19/03/2014 07:03

Choccy, like Niagara. With cramps (woo) to match.

And cause of the thrush I can't use my mooncup. But at least I can take drugs now .

MrsExtraOrdinary · 19/03/2014 07:05

Christmas that sounds agonising. I really hope they get you sorted promptly.

Af is a cow bag! I'm not up on all this temping, but I'm hoping retro you are just chilly. Does it always mean af on the way?

If they don't give me a dr apt today I will cry. Earache now in both ears, think my left one is oozing. FFs I hope my ear drum hasn't burst. This bloody virus could just fuck off please.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 19/03/2014 07:07

Oh niagra that's rubbish retro I'm sorry Brew

Choccywoccydodah · 19/03/2014 07:08

Oh no retro!!! So sorry :(
I agree with the no charting thing.
I would be doing that this month but I've actually got to do it now due to the pesseries as I've got to use them so many days after ov. Can't win can you!
The month I fell with number 2 I didn't think about it, symptom spot or come on here til testing time, that month went mega quick tbh!

Treaclepie19 · 19/03/2014 07:08

Oh retro that is shit :(

I tested 10dpo and bfn

Sure I'm out and my due dates are near the end of the month so guessing no December baby for us. I quite liked the idea :(

Choccywoccydodah · 19/03/2014 07:09

*i wouldn't

RetroHippy · 19/03/2014 07:13

Yep, I think I might just take a wee step back on here till testing time. I'll pop in occasionally to say hi and check up on BFPs but I kind of need to pull my head out of my ass and get on with life. At least the house move will help, hoping it all goes through quickly, but I guess I can start packing anytime.

Zermatt · 19/03/2014 07:13

No way it could be implantation bleeding as its full on flow as Retro said like Niagra but with added cramps, spots and back ache. Not to mention being a bit emotional, I just almost burst into tears in our team meeting when a colleague announced her pregnancy, so daft and I'm not unhappy for her it's lovely news. Hey, ho onwards and upwards. I am doing the same as retro for this new cycle, no temping, just lots and lots of dtd. If I am lucky they will be due on Xmas day....what a gift that would be :)

I will totally be here to cheer the rest of you on, there must be some more BFP's on this bus I just know it.

Choccy, I totally loved Raffles, I took my parents there for afternoon tea and a few singapore slings, gert lush! Also love Clark Quay, and all the food...mmmmmm chili crab.
