Tilly I think you've hit the nail on the head, POAS for ov feels proactive, then stopping all that in tww feels the opposite which is why we should start a support group call pee sticks anonymous.
My name is Viperama and I am addicted to peeing on sticks

Bumblesprout · 11/04/2014 07:58

Sorry to all those who AF has got. Xx
Welcome nyancat, we are cycle buddies I think, BFP due Saturday!

Still got a dodgy tummy but pretty sure it's a bug as have poas Thursday morn and bfn although it's still early to be testing so not completely lost hope yet. Got a 'big night out' planned for Saturday night so hopefully Sod's law will come into play for me on Saturday morning when I poas again!

Choccywoccydodah · 11/04/2014 08:03

Yes English, on it for 3 cycles total then they'll try something else if it doesn't work.
Nordic fingers crossed x

LemonDrizzler · 11/04/2014 08:09

Sorry for those AF got. Hope you're enjoying lots of wine this weekend. Thanks

Does anyone know anything about ttc the first cycle after mc? Some people on here have said it can make you super fertile, but did some reading online last night (a bit late obv as at end of cycle now) and it said you def shouldn't try again the first month after and you probably wouldn't even ovulate.

MademoiselleG · 11/04/2014 08:22

Mmmh morning everyone. Cd 12 here and I cob test is positive but I get empty blob on the electronic one. Weird! It's the we and on hol next week so I guess we will just did anyway and do lots of positive visualisation!!

Have a good day fellow penis-dragon-lovers and poas-addicts!

StuntNun · 11/04/2014 08:37

Lemon when I MCd it took about five weeks until my next period so I wouldn't have much clue when I would have ovulated in that time at all. But I think it's true about being extra fertile. Your body is primed to be pregnant. I MCd at 12 weeks on 1 Dec 2011 and fell pregnant around Valentines Day 2012 so I only had two periods in between. LO is now 17 months.

KittyVonCatsington · 11/04/2014 08:53

My name is Kitty, and I'm a POASlic.

Had to stop myself from OPKing too early this cycle. Last cycle I started on CD8 and had to get more sticks as solid smiley wasn't till CD24. Feel proud of myself for waiting until CD10 this cycle. . Grin

KittyVonCatsington · 11/04/2014 08:56

Hi Lemon - the only reason I could ever find for not trying the cycle after is to date the pregnancy. Well sod that, I thought, small price to pay! However, I wasn't one of them and I ovulated so late that I was too exhausted to DTD much more and missed out. I don't regret it though. Do whatever you feel comfortable with. If you need a break-have one

cth1982 · 11/04/2014 09:02

Hey Blondie have you been temp charting? I have spoken with plenty of people who don't get ewcm but have ovulated - temp charting will def help you see if you have or haven't :)

Tilly28 · 11/04/2014 09:02

That's exactly it viperama! I'm not looking forward to the long wait....

My name is Tilly and I'm a poas addict! Lol! Still trying to work out how to explain buying more ICs as we got a pack of 10 last cycle and unbeknown to my dp iv po most of them! For some reason our ebay account is in my name/card etc but his email!!! Lol! Hopefully the rest of the ICs and 3 frers iv got will do the job! :-)

kurama · 11/04/2014 09:09

my name is kurama and I love poas! I started at right time last month but ran out of sticks before I hit solid smiley so bought 2 packs for this month. I also bought loads of ic preggo tests just so I had something to po during twwBlush

Choccywoccydodah · 11/04/2014 09:11

My name is choccy and am also a poas addict. I have gone through approx 200 IC hpts over the last 7 months Shock

Lemon, how far were you? If before 5 weeks, it normally doesn't register as a pregnancy if the makes sense? My cycles after all 4 have gone back to ov on cd14 or 15 as normal. Cd1 being my first day of bleeding.
I thought I'd be earlier this month as I was getting strong lines around cd7 but still not a clear pos until cd15.
I think a later mc alters you more.

Choccywoccydodah · 11/04/2014 09:12

(And I have 50 more hpts too) Smile

EnglishGirlAbroad · 11/04/2014 09:20

I think i'm the opposite of most people on here. I hate poas! I get so bloody anxious waiting!! Even with opks!! But do it for the greater good!!

Zermatt · 11/04/2014 09:27

Yeah, for some reason I can handle AF coming better than a negative pregnancy test, so wouldn't test until I'm late. Messes up my Mellon too much, as even when you test and get a negative you can still try and convince yourself of a reason it's not showing up positive yet.

lindamagoo · 11/04/2014 09:31

I'm a total poas addict, even when I was on the pill I'd still randomly test just incase, lol... But this cycle (cause I have so much willpower now) I'm not testing until af is atleast 3 days late Smile

Blondie276 · 11/04/2014 09:34

Thanks cth
Right I've decided to use opk next cycle. So- where is best / cheapest place to get them?

kurama · 11/04/2014 09:47

blondie you can get ic ones from eBay/amazon. but you can also get clear blue digital ones for up to half the price they are in shops on ebay Wink thats were I get my cb ones from. I found 2 months worth for 25. thats cheaper than one months worth in bootsShock !!!

spinningirl10 · 11/04/2014 10:19

Haha Linda, love that you used to poas when you were on the pill Grin

Choccy.....are your lines getting stronger?

LemonDrizzler · 11/04/2014 10:21

Thanks for the advice guys. Think I was about 5 weeks so hopefully will go back to normal soon. Had some pinky cm today (4wks after mc) so perhaps this is start of AF already. Or perhaps implantation bleeding Hmm need to stop kidding myself

Mslad · 11/04/2014 10:25

Thanks for the heads up about buying pg tests on ebay/amazon - it never occurred to me to look for them online- so much cheaper.

Must get back to work and stop imagining symptons.....

22nicnak · 11/04/2014 11:37

I must confess, I am also poas addict! Even though I'm only on cd10 and having just come off the pill ( from previous experience I know full well I am not likely to ov this month) i will still be checking on a daily basis!!

Choccywoccydodah · 11/04/2014 11:38

these are the ones I have just bought 50 of

KittyVonCatsington · 11/04/2014 12:01

Don't be too hard on yourself, Lemon - if we don't have hope, there is not a lot left to help us cope Grin

Ok, possibly a pre-ovulation SYMPTOM that I want to check if is normal or not...Last night, had a really really loud gargling tummy - even DH asked what was up! I started having twinges on left side and felt my heartbeat in my tummy too. I do remember having a loud gargling tummy last cycle after AF ended. Currently on blank circle on CB digis and CD11.

Does this happen to anyone else?

xBlueberry88x · 11/04/2014 12:11
