theduchesse · 22/05/2014 07:03

Congrats Mrsh! So glad you poas to give us all some good news.

Well I have another bfn this morning so the faint line 2 days ago must have been an evap. So annoying because it really did look pink not like all the million evaps I've had before. Oh well, still only 11dpo so not totally out yet.

xBlueberry88x · 22/05/2014 07:11

Congrats mrsh

silverine yes still waiting for damn AF have done 2 tests over the last week both bfn.

Pretty sure its the pregnacare after reading up about it. Im so damn annoyed I thought I was doing the best thing by taking them. A year and a half of trying and this is the first time ive missed a period.

mrshjb · 22/05/2014 07:13

Thanks everyone :) Retro Haha I think the horror of having to poas once is enough for me, so for now I don't think I'll do anymore, but I might indulge myself and get a digi just to see it in writing! I'll head on over when I'm feeling brave enough :)

mrshjb · 22/05/2014 07:14

P.s. sorry to the bfns and people stuck in the awful limbo land.

Fingerscrossed36 · 22/05/2014 07:27

So clear Mrsh Congratulations

victoria401 · 22/05/2014 07:39

Nice strong bfp mrs!

Oh dear blue, what are we going to do with you eh? Hope you get some answers soon x

A whopping 10dpo for me today already. Proud of myself for not symptom spotting Grin i don't have slight cramps or backache this morning or slightly sore boobs last night, oh no

madasacatter · 22/05/2014 07:41

mrsh could we have your stats please?

Rainbow555 · 22/05/2014 07:43

Yaaaaay MrsH awesome news!!
I am hed and so got my iron tested and was low so taking iron with bit c am and elevit with iodine pm, this is the one recommended by doc over here but you can just take folic acids sups that is the key at the early stages as far as I am aware

Sucky day at work, really would like a Wine!! Not stopped the wine whilst on af but seems a bit dodge to have once whilst it is OV and DTD stage of the cycle!!

Rainbow555 · 22/05/2014 07:49

That should read I am vegetarian, hed silly ipads!

mrshjb · 22/05/2014 07:53

Thanks again :) which stats do I need to share?!

SoMuchFruit · 22/05/2014 08:15

Just popped in to say hi. So sorry tooth Thats very hard for you. I hope you are OK. [Thanks]

Love the namechange English. Let us know how your scan goes. I hope all is well. Congress to everybody that got BFP's!

I am still preggo, for now. CBDigi has increased and says 3+ now Grin. Been to Doc and have had BetaHcg done and have an early scan next week As a reassurance measure. Still too nervous to be added to any BFP lists or join the PG thread though. I know, pathetic, but cant help myself...

SoMuchFruit · 22/05/2014 08:17

Bloody tablet. *congrats not congress!!!

gennibugs · 22/05/2014 09:07

Congratulations MrsHJB - fantastic news!

Yes please stats - how long youve been trying, what you did this month, (nothing is TMI on here!) symptoms etc please!

Smile
hanflan · 22/05/2014 09:08

MrsH just the "how you did it" stats. Share as much as you wish!
Which cd you ovulated and which cd you dtd. Any special extra helpers such as softcups, conception vits, preseed etc. Anything different you did this month, and SYMPTOMS! Grin

Chandlers ooooh yes we can be poas buddies! And compare symptoms haha. I am going to try my hardest to wait until I am actually late to poas. Wasted so much money last month.

gennibugs · 22/05/2014 09:09

10dpo here too and not a whiff of a symptom, except a tummy ache which Im putting down to too may sugar free sweets yesterday and too many crumpets just before bed.

I am going to poas on Monday Ive decided if no AF or spotting, though I strongly suspect that its the pregnacare that is delaying my usual spotting that I would have got by now.

spinning - any symptoms? I think you, me and victoria are all about 10dpo arent we?

silverine · 22/05/2014 09:12

Yaaay Mrsh, massive congrats on the massive BFP! We all want the statsa on how u did it: ov and dtd cds, symptoms, any supplements or therapies, etc. So pleased I get to add another bfp to the list though!
somuch you defo are upduffed, surely it should be fine to make your way onto the list, at least in brackets Wink

RetroHippy · 22/05/2014 09:21

SoMuch, today you are pregnant! I'm sorry, I'm not sure of your history. Are you cautious because of past experience? I do wonder if I'm too eager to just accept it, only 17dpo today. I know if I get too excited too soon I'll be devestated if anything goes wrong, but I'm starting to feel like it's real now. May buy myself a couple more digis to see those numbers progress...

pocopearl · 22/05/2014 11:20

And so it begins 1dpo. I promised myself no symptom spotting this time (mainly because no symptoms until implantation) clearly have morning sickness, bloating, and big bump

Fx crossed for this month feeling hopeful. Went and got all baby clothes from mums house today (she is my dtorage facility)

RetroHippy · 22/05/2014 11:33

poco, I found it helped to remember that most very early symptoms are due to normal progesterone levels after ovulation. Stopped my obsessing for the first week of the 2ww at least!

spinningirl10 · 22/05/2014 12:29

Hi Genni, I'm 9dpo and no symptoms. The pessary did the trick overnight with my thrush so that's feeling better. Will poas tomorrow and probably every day until af arrives or bfp. Dp is sure I'm pregnant, he says I haven't had my usual pre af moodiness! Cheeky git GrinI do think my boobs are bigger but as I have implants they're quite big anywayGrin

mrshjb · 22/05/2014 12:30

Ok ladies the stat's....

TTC 1, me 26, DH 27. I came off the pill October last year and it took until last cycle for my cycles to settle back down to any kind of normality so really I would class this as second cycle properly trying. Looking at EWCM and temps I think I OV on cd22, dtd on cd 16,18,19,21,23,25. I've been taking seven seas trying for a baby this cycle. I was having reflexology last month but haven't had any in the last few weeks. I went to the spa for a day the weekend before OV and was on holiday with my family whilst implantation was occuring. I think being relaxed and not obsessing over it probably really helped (not that that's remotely possibly without a decent distraction). I also had a small glass of red wine every night whilst on holiday! Didn't really do anything new or exciting during the dtd, just didn't do it with me on top because I read they drop out (which is probably not that true) and put a pillow under my bum afterwards and laid there for about 30 minutes each go. Which again I don't know if it works but it makes you feel like you're doing something doesn't it!

Symptoms wise: 7/8dpo I had a random dizzy and sicky spell both mornings. 9/10dpo I had light pink/ brown spotting which I thought was AF arriving and had an emotional breakdown, which DH says was a symptom. I didn't temp on holiday to stop the obsessing but when I got back I temped and it was really high for usual. I also tracked CP and noticed it became high and soft a few days ago. Also getting a bit more CM now. Finally I had a packet of Quavers the other day, which I normally love and I thought they tasted weird!!

That's probably about it and even though looking back I had a lot of signs, I definitely didn't believe it until I got the bfp this morning!!

Hope that's enough info all!!
