Oh yeah fx makes sense now lol

Many congrats to Jackie, so happy for you xxx

ChandlersFarang · 12/10/2014 16:30

Yay Jackie! Welcome to Pregtown!! I had a feeling you were upduffed from the symptoms you were posting about actually, cracking work! Grin

Spinning - re the sperm death thing, I'm on an American forum for PCOS and a lot of the women on there talk about some test where the docs take a swab from them and see if the sperm are still living or not - I guess to judge whether the woman has a hostile vag (love that term, lolz). Anyway some do say that all were dead when swabbed which is obvs an issue. A lot of women with PCOS don't get EWCM (me included) hence why it's probably 'a thing' on that board. Anyway EWCM or fertility line should do the trick to create the nice environment - any other CM type doesn't work for sperm appaz. (Altho no doubt plenty of women have got preg that didn't experience EWCM, so who knows). As for me, I think lack of EWCM has been my downfall when I have ovulated, alongside thin womb lining. Am working on sorting both currently!! Got my scan tomorrow so will report back on whether the soy had any impact at all... ShockGrin

ChandlersFarang · 12/10/2014 16:31

*fertility LUBE that is!

spinningirl10 · 12/10/2014 16:38

Chandler, that's very interesting about the sperm and hostile vag!! Ttc lube has to be the way forward. The more i read/hear the more I think it's a bloody miracle that anyone gets a bfp Grin

I've made chocolate brownies and their yummy, I've made so many I think you should all have one to stop me eating the lot Grin

The lines today on my opks have been barely visible. Very strange as cd10 today and usually get a positive on cd11. Guess I just have to keep poas and be patient Grin

Huge congratulations Jackie. That's awesome news. Here's to a happy and healthy nine months.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 12/10/2014 16:57

Oooo brownies spinning! Yes please! Grin I could just fancy a home made brownie. I wonder what's going on spinning?! I didn't get my positive until cd15 though, So don't fret yet.

broodylicious · 12/10/2014 17:02

Big congrats jackie!! That's fantastic news Smile

want, hang in there, still early days and you're not out til AF arrives Smile

I'm still on a downer. Major rage with stupid dh. He just seems to be annoying me with every word and move he makes. I'm being v careful not to flip my lid in front of dd but he's making it v difficult today. Plus, why the chuff are pg symptoms so similar to bloody pmt?! Irritability, decreased appetite, sore boobs, ovary twinges... Doing. My. Head. In.

Thepurplegiraffe · 12/10/2014 17:05

Ruby last time I got a bfp I was about 4 days late, bfn the day before. There is still hope!

rubyrubes13 · 12/10/2014 17:18

Thanks all so frustrating dh is on cloud 9 as he thinks I am up the duff even though bfn

spinningirl10 · 12/10/2014 17:25

Omg my ex dh is such a twat!!!! My ds is supposed to be home at 5pm. 4.55 I get a text from ex to say they're just going past Birmingham but ds has had a lovely weekend at Alton Towers. We live at least a 3 hr drive from Birmingham and he leaves it till 4.55 to tell me he's going to be late. Fucking knob head!!! And I didn't know they were going to Alton towers so that must have been said to wind me up or something.
Ok rant over , might have a glass of the red wine I've opened to add to roast beef gravy.

Broody, sorry you're still down and its shit that af/bfp symptoms are the sameThanks

MrsE, it's very odd for me but there's nothing I can do but wait and see what happens and of course keep peeing on opks Grin how are you feeling?

sparkle17 · 12/10/2014 17:30

Massive congrats jackie. You must be over the moon.

Cariad2014 · 12/10/2014 17:57

Enormous hugs Broody. Sorry you're feeling blue. Also feeling a bit rubbish today, which I think is partly because I'm still exhausted after my surgery. I just know that the next 6 weeks before we can ttc again are going to go SO SLOWLY. I hate myself for being so impatient.

MrsExtraOrdinary · 12/10/2014 18:00

It might seem odd, but remember soy might be at work. Wink When I did get a line my god it was darker than I'd ever had before on cb smily.

I'm feeling a tad shit tbh. Had a hot water bottle strapped to my tummy all day Sad

spinningirl10 · 12/10/2014 18:03

Ahh MrsE, I was hoping you might be feeling better, keeping fx that all will be well for you.

MrsE sorry you're still feeling so shitty, I hope it's a good sign and that it doesn't last. Thanks

Also hugs to Broody, Cariad and Ruby. Sorry you are having a difficult time Thanks Brew

And yes please to the brownies spinning! Brew

spinningirl10 · 12/10/2014 18:38

Thanks Boosk, what's annoyed me is the lateness in which he let me know.

Jessica85 · 12/10/2014 18:45

Congrats Jackie! It's so exciting to hear about bfps!

I had bfn this morning on cb. I had intended to get a frer, but the shops round here don't seem to sell them! Ordered a couple off amazon but they won't be here before af is due on Tuesday. Gonna try not to POAS tomorrow, it made me cry a bit today and I don't want that while I'm getting ready for work.

I've just eaten a whole bar some fruit and nut, so if I eat brownies too I might be sick!
