Oh MrsE's cat you can do this Smile The first of the penis dragon babies shall be born this week Smile

hanflan · 09/06/2014 09:51

spotti here is a virtual slap for you!
Step away from the pee sticks. I only got a bfp on a FRER at 11dpo so although you might get a bfp, you might also just be wasting money! I know it's hard, I was peeing on cheapies from 7dpo haha. Oooops.

Big welcome to cpt1sock as well! Hopefully you will get your bfp very soon.

Oooh can I join in the Friday POAS party too?? I'll be 12dpo then, so I'll be pushing my luck a bit Grin

spinningirl10 · 09/06/2014 10:06

Welcome MrsCPT and good luck to you. I have a big age gap as well, my eldest is 18!!!! Trying for no.3 Grin

FloweryBoots · 09/06/2014 10:59

Hello CPT, welcome aboard. I'm going for number 3 too (though not the age gap). Good luck with keeping calm and sane for the next week!

I should join the Friday POAS party. I bet if I am PG it would show by Friday on a FRER. But DH says no until after the weekend and we are rid of all but 1 guest (have 4 male friends staying for first weekend of workd cup). I think test so I can have some drinks with them if I'm not pg!

The Boots household has turned into a great big ball of snot and tissues. I feel utterly rotten, DH not great, kids both snotty as anything but also still full of energy. Argh. And of course I don't feel I can take any sudafed incase am PG. Got to say, hot squash and paracetomol not cutting it at the moment, my head feels like it's going to explode. Sticking CBeeBies on and egarly awating nap time so I get down to only entertaining 1 child. Urgh.

ChandlersFarang · 09/06/2014 11:06

Welcome MrsCPT! And good luck!! Can we get your stats for the list? Username, age, what no child you're on, date you're expecting BFP/AF.

Does anyone else get sore nips immediately after ovulation? I've been getting them each time... my frenemy Google has suggested that it means I won't get a BFP (it's possibly a hormonal response to no fertilisation). I do try not to believe everything I read, but is there any truth whatsoever in that? Trying to find counter evidence that someone got sore nips (note: not boobs!!) post ov and went on to get a BFP in that cycle but not much luck yet.

Can I just get a shout-out to MN by the way? As all of you have been saying, for the obvious reasons of you lot/it being amaze, but also because it's not as cringey as all the American boards? You know, where everyone lists a ton of info in their signatures, and have creepy photos up next to their names. Here's to keeping it real/understated over here in true British style. Grin

Cpt1sock · 09/06/2014 11:22

Thanks for the welcome ladies.

spinningirl19 it's nice to hear someone else looking forward to going back to beginning after being out of the baby phase awhile. I was at a party on Sat, there only 1 person there who knew about us ttc. Someone asked me about children and I got lots of comments about being lucky that I was no longer suffering the sleepless nights and dirty nappies, I was dying to say I'm longing to be woken in the night by a baby. I'm really looking forward to telling the older 2 they are going to be big brothers!

floweryboots try the head over a bowl of steaming water with a towel over head trick. If you've got some Vicks or snuffle babe add some of that too. Sounds like you need some unblocking before your head does pop! Hope you manage to get some rest. I've got ds2 home from school, he's v.green looking, feeling sick. He hasn't been sick yet, hopefully it'll stay that way.

Cpt1sock · 09/06/2014 11:26

My stats are.

Cpt1sock, 33, cycle 1,ttc#3, BFP/Af due 15th June.

gennibugs · 09/06/2014 11:55

Morning all

I can't believe what insensitive people there are out there. Sad

well I think I am now 1/2dpo and in the 2ww. sounds like there are a few of us at the same stage in our cycles - spinning we are cycle buddies again I think! feel like we did everything we could this time so I'm praying it's our turn. I don't want to put my DH through another month, he's got enough stress as it is so would be lovely to give him some good news and take the pressure off something in his life! !

hi to the newbies joining Smile

spinningirl10 · 09/06/2014 12:19

Yep cycle buddies again Genni Grin we've also done all we can and dp has already asked if I feel pregnant!! Fx for us both.

Spotti · 09/06/2014 12:45

You'll be pleased to know that I've stepped away from the pee sticks, and that slap from linda worked a treat (cheers hun Smile).

I've spent the last few hours trying really hard to make a website for the old horse/dog training business but by 'eck it's hard work! My brain actually aches now from staring at the screen for so long! (High five to those who can use computers for a living - usually mine has been threatened to be thrown out of the window after an hour if it's not for leisure reasons I can stay on here for hours! ).

Got brain ache now though (and a grumbly hungry tummy) so I'm having a break from concentrating and might even out some rubbish daytime TV on to soothe the old noggin...

Looking forward to the kitty pics MrsE Grin.

kurama · 09/06/2014 13:07

lindamagoo · 09/06/2014 13:08

Eh Spotti I'm not a violent person it was the lovely, though aggressive, Hanflan that slapped you Grin If anything I'd talk you into poas Smile

silverine · 09/06/2014 13:13

Woah, that cough syrup tastes horrid but seems to be working - ewcm has made an appearance a whole 3 days early! Shock

xBlueberry88x · 09/06/2014 14:15

Afternoon Ladies,

Treacle Hun dont worry about venting on here thats what its for and im sure we will all do the same at some point. I hope things start to get easier for you soon.

Chandlers How did the acupuncture feel, I was tempted to try that or reflexology but its kinda creeps me out.

Wineandchoccy Hope you have a nice holiday!! £360 quid on junk nice one.

April Fx af is late for a good reason.

Mrse Poor cat being hot and pregnant cant be good.

Cpt Welcome!! Dont be nervous were all lovely in here.

Hello to every one else.

IF I ovulated im about 5/6dpo feel rather weird today I keep feeling dizzy and seeing the spots in my eyes when I stand up. Im drinking loads and ive eaten so im not sure hopefully im not coming down with something.

Just over a week until gynae app and im getting proper nervous.

Aprilray · 09/06/2014 14:38

Thanks Blueberry I got a massive urge to POAS (Superdrug) and BFN at 13DPO (not fmu though) am spending far too much time googling and reading about women who have had BFNs at 13DPO and gone on to get BFPs.
Welcome Cpt I was nervous when I first posted too but being on here makes the whole ttc process that bit easier.
MrsE very excited to see the kitten pics Smile

Nordicmom · 09/06/2014 14:44

Af arrived at 12dpo so a bit early again accompanied with the worst cramps of my life . These remind me more of one of my mc . I've slept all day so far (dd at nursery ds school thank god) and will be taking nurofen + now... I think I'll give school coffee morning a miss tomorrow . So not in the mood and day no2 of af always the worst for me...

Aprilray · 09/06/2014 15:07

I'm so sorry to hear that AF has arrived Nordic and that you are suffering from horrible cramps. GrandHighWitch has started a July bus which I plan to hop straight aboard if/when AF turns up!

Cpt1sock · 09/06/2014 15:51

Thanks for the lovely welcome ladies.

april I think my rl friends who know about me ttc are getting fed up of me talking about it so it's great to have somewhere to chat to others in the same position.

blueberry I've had acupuncture before and it is amazing. The needles are so fine you barely feel them. Once they are in place you'll be left to relax for a short while, I never thought lying there with needles stuck in various places would feel so nice but it was lovely. I didn't have it for ttc purposes though so don't know if it's different. Reflexology is also amazing. I'm v.ticklish and didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did.

nordic sorry AF arrived and is being so vile. I hope you find the time to rest. Be kind to yourself.

I'm taking the dc to the dentist soon and thinking about calling in boots while I'm out, I need to stay away. If I buy a fr I know I'll do it tonight and spend the rest of the week fed up but it's ssoooo tempting!!!

Spotti · 09/06/2014 16:02

Sorry Linda/hanflan for the mix up - I'm blaming the achy brain! Just had a 3 hour nap and feel a bit brighter now so I might manage to make sense for a bit Wink.

Sunshine4444 · 09/06/2014 16:20

Treaclepie19 · 09/06/2014 17:00

Hi everyone!
I miss too much while I'm at work, I'll have to leave so I can be on mumsnet all day :p

Spotti you do make me laugh :) also, no POAS yet!!! I did from 7 dpo and only got my bfp at 11dpo.

Can't wait to see *MrsE's kitty pics :D

Hi to the newbies :)

Cpt1sock · 09/06/2014 17:16

Hi sunshine Grin

kurama · 09/06/2014 18:00

Hi sunshine! Welcome to the beautiful madness of the busses Wink

KittyVonCatsington · 09/06/2014 18:27

Hi Chandlers - I had sore nipples only (rest of boobs were fine) , from 1 to 3dpo according the the notes I put on FF. When I Googled on the Internet, there was this one doctor that kept being quoted (can't remember who) as saying it means no ovulation. Well, I can say that she is wrong - have definitely ovulated according to my temps and my chart has even gone triphasic according to FF.

I did find this comment on the net too from someone who was describing early pregnancy symptoms: "My nipples became quite sensitive 2 days after ovulation, the cervical neck became briefly hard (2 days) at 3 days and the aureolae became smudgy, developed bumps and started to expand at 7 days."
I got this from this site:
www.storknet.com/cubbies/pregnancy/pregsymptomsurvey.htm

Hope this makes you feel better!

Can I have some advice from experienced ladies on early pregnancy symptoms? My burning boobs from yesterday evening, went by this morning crazy when you go ahhh when you get grim SYMPTOMS but miss then when they are gone but have returned this evening, although not as fiery but enough to want to take bra off. A obviously clutching at straws Blush

Welcome Capn and Sunshine - I've added you both to the passenger stats list Grin
