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?

allthefours as long as you read the test in the time frame, a line is a line. Thinking of you and keeping my fingers crossed for the morning. Xxx

Oh brummie I'm so sorry to hear your news. How utterly devastating. Take time to process the terrible bad luck you've had, get upset and get angry, it all helps eventually. I'm glad you've found your way back here, I don't know what I would have done without the support on this board.

Thank you boozle great to hear from you. How are you doing? Lovely to hear from hope again too. And hi again cloud I like your new name.

Good luck all keeping everything crossed for you for this morning/today

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 19/08/2014 08:31

Oh brummie im so sorry, sending you big hugs and hoping your not in too much pain x

Allthefours · 19/08/2014 08:41

Well, I took the FRER test this morning. It's a definite BFP.

I'm in shock. Desperately want a hug from DH but I'm 200 miles away in Devon this week!

Handholding definitely needed.

Congrats Allfours. Im currently waiting for a ring back from the doctors as I just started spotting :( knew I wasn't very confident on this one. No after the last two nights when I had paranoid dreams of having another mc. I know it still might be nothing but is say I've lost another one with my track record.
Feeling very sad right now.

Treaclepie19 · 19/08/2014 09:22

Oh no lauren :( keep calm, it could be nothing.

Let us know how you get on. Big hugs xxx

Oh no lauren thinking of you. Remember spotting is really common in early pregnancy, it's just unfortunate you have the experience of when things go wrong that is probably making you feel less positive.

I hope the Drs can give you some reassurance x

Lauren82000 · 19/08/2014 09:43

Thanks they are just going to do basic bloods so I'll know by Friday. One way or the other. I'm hoping it might be a bit of break through bleeding and that's why my dc has been every shade it could be this week. It's just so typical though, get our new car on Friday and then going to my sisters for the weekend to do an early birthday for my niece. I'm going to have to put a brave face on it and pretend it's not happening.

Hope26 · 19/08/2014 10:06

Congratulations allfours! The sun is out so enjoy your day. Soon you will be DH and you can cry, laugh, have all the weird emotions in the world. All the best x

Lauren I know it's not easy but try not to stress. I had no spotting with the first pregnancy but this pregnancy I had spotting so I freaked out so much. It was nothing serious and in a way a good thing as I had two early reassurance scans. Stay calm and if its light brown discharge that's old blood (implantation) and if its light pinkish don't stress too. If it gets heavy and red with pains then run off to a&e but I'm sure it's just normal spotting. Hope it all goes well for you

Lauren82000 · 19/08/2014 10:26

It's just light brown at the moment and the other 2 went straight to watery brown blood so it's not like them and with my first pregnancy I actually had a full period which was why didn't realise I was pregnant till I was about 8 weeks. That one went fine even if she was 2 weeks overdue and needed major dynamite to get her out. I've had an odd bit of cramping but nothing I would say was painful just on the edge of awareness. Like I said I'll know by Friday and the doctor was really nice I got bp checked and a tummy poke. (Which is more than I got last time) just sat waiting for them to stab me for bloods now.

MademoiselleG · 19/08/2014 11:04

Thinking if you Lauren and hope it's nothing.
Allthefours - a cautious congrats, for want of a better word? Basically a massive congrats with a huge hug for comfort.
I am all twisted and in knots for crossing everything for you both!Thanks

AFM, well I ovulated on Sunday I think and last time I was with dh was Thursday, so I think I'm probably out this month. It's prob best to have a normal period again after a TFMR before starting to conceive - not that there is any medical need, but easier to date!

Waves to everyone else xx

Lauren82000 · 19/08/2014 11:29

Thanks ladies, I've got everything crossed too.

Treaclepie19 · 19/08/2014 11:41

Fingers well and truly crossed for you all and massive hugs!

I am currently listening to very angry/depressing music trying to cheer myself up (backwards?).
The friend I told you about is still moaning. Now a out having no sleep. Her husband put on facebook "hands up who has f* Al sleep".
Even DH was annoyed and said to me "hands up those who have actually got the baby they wanted".
I took comfort in the fact I upset him too.

I know it's to be expected but I'm so fed up of feeling like people could just be a little more grateful!!!!!!!!!
Rant over.

You're in with a chance this month still mademoiselle :)
We're not trying, it's just easier to get rid of the thrush completely first.

Brummie - I'm so sorry to see you back here. It is truly devastating. Take some time to grieve. Two in 3 months is a lot for anyone to try to deal with. Sending you lots of hugs.

Congratulations Allthefours, hope you have a very boring 9 months.

Try not to panic Lauren - will be think ing of you and sending you lots of positive vibes.

Finished my CB sticks today with yet another flashing face. Temps havent shown ovulation so looks like this will be an annovulatory cycle. On cd21 so now would just like af to turn up. Although thats highly unlikely. My annov cycle before the bfp was 45 days Hmm Angry.

Had a massive cry this morning. Although i've fallen pg twice in the last year, those cycles are 2 of only 3 where i've actually ov'd according to temps. I feel like i have less of a chance because of my shitty cycles. This year has been the shittest year ever. Don't know wether it's worth seeing my GP. Drs tend to roll there eyes when ever i've mentioned temping etc. I know they'll just say....you've fallen pregnant twice, you will again.... Which I know is true. I just want as much chance as any other woman with normal cycles. Sorry for the woe is me post..... Sad

Treaclepie19 · 19/08/2014 11:50

English don't be silly, all I've done recently is woe is me posts :p
I'd go to the doctors if I were you, even if it's just so you feel more like you're doing something about it.
Big hugs xxx

MademoiselleG · 19/08/2014 12:48

Big hugs English, it totally sucks. I too have many anovulatory cycles and it just feels really annoying and unfair,doesn't it? Like your body is playing against you.

Treacle hide these people from your fb feed NOW! I've hidden so many people all I see now is adds for fb itself! Haha!

The doctors might say that English but if it puts your mind at ease, go! You have nothing to lose. Thinking if you xx

Thank you ladies, the problem is we've always been so close and I don't want to miss out on bonding time with her son just because I'm struggling right now. It's tricky :(

It does annoy me though. When I was pregnant I tried hard not to moan about anything because I knew if anything went wrong id kick myself. Glad i did that now.

Big hugs all round I think x

Lauren82000 · 19/08/2014 17:01
