The Rules...

(1) A lady may only POAS on a Friday.
(2) Friday means the day that everyone calls Friday in the time zone where you spent the night.
(3) Rule (1) does not apply to POA-OPK-S, UNLESS they are being illegitimately used as surrogate HCG detectors, in which case Rule (1) most definitely does apply
(4) Rule (1) does not apply following a BFP because if you want to waste £25 a day POADigiS that's your prerogative
(5) Rule (1) does not apply if a lady is POAS in an attempt to get a BFN to prove she can start DTD with intent
(6) Rule (1) does not apply if a lady wants for unknown reason to pee on an actual stick, like a twig or some such, if that lady is unexpectedly caught short whilst tramping in the forest looking for bears.
(7) These rules (including Rule (1)) are subject to the change at any time if the ladies of the Posifrickentivity thread decide on a whim come up with empirical evidence to prove that it is luckier to POAS on any other day of the week
(8) Violators of Rule (1) shall be subject to fish throwing.

And as a grand finale, why not pledge to NEVER POAS before 14DPO?

In the spirit of sharing blogs, I've not long had mine up and running. Feel free to comment here or there. It's just my way of getting things off my chest, so - be warned - I will rant!

I've not been around for a few weeks, but am dropping in to let you know that I got a BFP this morning.

Please don't congratulate me or wish me luck. After 5 MCs in the last year and a half, this is my last shot. I am a tiny bit happy, but mostly I'm thinking "oh no, not again!"

Let's see how we do, I'm only 11dpo so very early days.

Thanks everyone who knows me, your support has been brilliant x

Xxxxx tanny

Lovely blog Broody. I got a lump in my throat reading about your miscarriage xx

Thinking of you Tanny

tanny Fingers crossed to fracture point. I understand why you say no congrats/good luck but I really hope this is your time. Big hugs....

Tannyyyyy there is always hope xxx

broody what a lovely blog :) the beginning part where you are blissfully unaware of just what was around the corner had me sobbing...I would love to go back to those days :) beautiful. X

tanny thinking of u :) x

My cycle ranges max of about 47 days had 2 cycles of 43.

Bleugh, just very fed up, I'm on day 27 I normally ovulate about now but CM is not EWCM and that's the giveaway for me!

Fingers crossed T!

fingers crossed Tanny don't know what happened there!

Keeping everything thing crossed for you tanny

Oh Tanny, I'm keeping everything crossed for you xxx

And the score is... 29. Down from 47 a week ago. So that's a step in the right direction.

Sadly though the doctor thinks I have lost two babies (both very early) - one in May and another from a new pregnancy in June. So let's see how quickly I can get this level down so I can try again.

Tanny well done - it's the first step in the right direction xxx

Had a massive baby bomb dropped on me at work today, one of my colleagues brought her daughter in with her 2 week old baby granddaughter and just handed the baby to me without so much as a "would you mind holding this". An absolutely beautiful, perfect tiny baby girl. I had a jolly good cry in the toilets afterwards. Some days I think I should just tell people that I had a miscarriage and then maybe I wouldn't end up in situations like that. On the other hand, it was amazing to hold a new baby even though it made my heart break a little bit. And I guess it was a bit like ripping off a plaster - I've crossed that particular bridge for the first time since my mc so hopefully next time it won't be so hard.

Oh mrsg I'm so sorry. Numbers are dropping so definitely moving forward.

Office similar happened to be recently. I'm so sorry I know that knotted stomach feeling when it happened to me.
I should have had a cry though- stupidly have kept it all bottled up.

I have tidied my house within an inch of it's life!
Even the inside of my fridge clean...and the outside of my kitchen windows!
Bad day here

Haha Marmalade - I took down all my curtains and washed them when I found out about my mmc. Unfortunately my cleaning fetish didn't last - but I did have a sparkling house for a week or two!

What's wrong with me? I didn't clean for two weeks when I came out of hospital!!!

Oh office :( I told most people at work about my mc to save awkward questions and it didn't help. Still ending up in the same situations.

Ok, i feel guilty. Had half a bottle of wine and planning more. Even though I'm ovulating today/tomorrow. Should I feel guilty? Last time did nothing wrong and miscarried. Ugh.

Treacle I have this argument with myself all if the time. I wouldn't feel guilty. Considering what we have been through, the stress, heartache, etc I believe to be kind to yourself and live normal is the best way.

Thanks lou, that's the way I see it.

DH is currently lost for words at my "well nobody has shown any interest or care so I have to deal with it" speech.
Fed up of just putting up with it though. Grr. Sorry for moaning yet again :(

I agree with lou treacle I would do the same if I knew when or if I was going to ovulate. I'm sure the predictor is lying to me! but we have no wine!
So please have a glass for me and enjoy

Wine was my best friend last week. DH raised eyebrow every glass that filled and got swigged. Just a bit of escapism when we need it!

Haha thanks marmalade.
I chart my temp and my opk seems reliable alongside.

Am enjoying my wine but struggling tonight. Annoyed when I feel like this. Woe is me. Bleugh.

Morning all.
How you doing treacle?
Had a really disturbed night and have a long old day ahead of me- very tired! Caffeine free normally but I'm decaf free for 4 weeks today. Today is the first day I miss coffee!

Had a few twinges last night and sore boobs- probably should have dtd but DH was shattered... I am being highly unreasonable to be rather annoyed about this!
I need to get a grip.

Totally understand what you mean re escapism lou.
