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?

Hey All,

Don't have a clue re the cream I'm afraid. Sounds like you've worked it out though.
Love your ideas Monten, I'm going to try to put that at the front of my mind :)

Oneday what a complete knob cheese, how would he feel if his heart was repeatedly smashed up over and over again and was never able to be put back together completely? What a dick!

Hope everyone's having a good Tuesday, thank goodness for the holidays!

Oh gosh pink discharge again, it seems to happen in the evening!!! And I got slight cramps. I hate this.

Ladies mc, pregnancy again after mc - all can drive you insane. It doesn't stop.

trea - thrush sounds awful sorry I can't be of any use I have no idea what it's like and what to take! Get well soon x

Treaclepie19 · 22/07/2014 22:15

Thanks boozle and hope. Cream is in so hopefully I'll start to feel better.

Hope, try to keep calm. It must be so difficult. Sending bug hugs xxx

Boozle80 · 22/07/2014 22:21

Oh Hope that must be so hard, try not to worry - pink is ok I think.

Treacle hope you're feeling tip top super soon :)

Still at conference so can't quite find the time to read everything. Hope you are all well.

Went back to see the replies to my last comment - not convinced its implantation really but it's not come to anything still. It's probably just the beginning of my WTF cycle. Seems like it might be a tease!

RE: scans. I would completely get an early scan next time. I understand what you have said about it not making a difference but, I found out through private scan as I needed reassurance and I am so great full I didn't wait the next couple of weeks to find out the worst. Even more grateful I knew I had miscarried already before it started naturally as that was terrifying anyway but would have been worse if I didn't know what was happening!

Evening all,
Reading back through and trying to catch up, but noticing we need a new thread, anyone on a computer than can set up and put the link for us? Sorry on my phone

hope thinking of you, it's horrible seeing pink and not knowing what it means. Hopefully just everything getting nice and comfy for the next 9 months xx

Hi glitter and welcome in the nicest possible way. I hope you find this thread as comforting, hilarious and heart warming as I have.

So the most shocking part of my tale earlier is that this Dr is a woman! Not only that but she and her partner went through a tfmr last year so really should know better than to say something like this. She's also made me feel that because of my age, I shouldn't be feeling so upset about the mmc, like I don't have the right to be. I then had to spend an afternoon in ultrasound with one if my patients today. Brill! So not sure if knob cheese applies here boozle given the female, maybe fanny flap?!

monten I really like you're analogy. I read it briefly earlier and it made me feel better all day. Thank you!

hope I'm so sory you're having all this worry. You so deserve a lovely healthy straight forward pregnancy without these little blips. pink or brown isn't supposed to be cause for alarm I think I read and was told by the mw?

treacle I hope you're feeling better? Try not to focus on missing a month of ttc, focus on getting yourself better and in tip top baby making condition for next month so you can really go for it!

Re the early scans, I don't know if I would have one again after my experience at seeing bean and the heartbeat at 6 weeks, only to go and have a mmc within a day or too. It's very difficult. I think you've just got to do what feels right at the time.

In other news, I think AF is paying me a visit and to be honest I'm relieved. Crampy twinges all day today and then pink streaked discharge tonight ( sorry if tmi) So if this is the real deal I've been fault lucky with the WTF cycle, a 30 dryer instead on my usual 27. Hopefully we can start this ttc lark again very very soon once the witch has been! I'm looking back at my app and am looking when in my cycle we dtd to see if we can try to replicate it. Definitely not getting obsessed already ...

Fairly not fault!

Ooh blimey new thread needed already? We should definitely have JTFO in this title?!

Treaclepie19 · 23/07/2014 07:46

Hope no one minds - New thread

Evening ladies! How is everyone?! Any good news from anyone this week!?

So I've a 'too much information' question! 10 days ago whilst mad crazy TTC I managed to get really bad cystitis...I don't normally get it! Anyway after many uncomfortable days the burn did stop! However.... For the last week I have had back ache, twinges in my abdomen some lasting quite a while ...more dull ache than sharp pains, and also leg pains! Like waking up in the night with really ache legs, almost like growing pains! Now part of me is (crazy 3 time MC lady) thinking these symptoms are possible early pregnancy symptoms ( googled the shit out of them all of course ;-) ) but am also starting to panic that maybe the cystitis spread or worse...there is something going on in my whomb which will stop me ever having my much wanted baby! Went to doctors they were VERY unhelpful, said wait for AF and see if the pains go. I've been keeping a diary and it's been 7 days almost every night I feel this!!!! So when they started It would have been far too early for menstural pains. What do you ladies think? Anyone had any of this? Anyone had cystitis with complications?!!!! I am 7 days away from AF due date xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Treaclepie19 · 24/07/2014 22:22

Come and join us on the new thread :) link above ^^

What I will say is that I have had cystitis a lot. I have had a couple of kidney infections too and the pain is severe.

Have the doctors rechecked your urine? You may need more antibiotics.
