Dozygirl · 18/10/2014 12:28

Could be spinning!!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 18/10/2014 12:31

Oh spinning I cant tell you how excited I am about your knickers Blush I had exactly the same at 10dpo and Id not had it before either on any pregnancy. It's soy I tell you! Grin

Boosk · 18/10/2014 12:33

Eeee spinning SYMPTOM!!!

Sorry AF got you Beaker, she's a total bitch. Thanks

Right I think I'm up to date. Sorry to anyone I missed with AF, BFN and losing loved ones. It's so hard to catch up via the app.

Is anyone going to test today? We need some good news! Smile

spinningirl10 · 18/10/2014 12:38

Hahaha MrsE, that made me laugh loudly inTKMaxGrin

Dreamingoutloud · 18/10/2014 12:46

spinning that's a great sign, fx

mum don't give up hope, Af is not here, she could still miss you out!

Will do a proper catch up later as I'm at work today, just to report, no Af yet, and no Af symptoms which is very weird for me.
Having a date night with dh tonight where we will not talk about TTC lol then I may test tomorrow morning if still Af free, although I can't find a frer anywhere so it will have to be another cb!

lucieloos · 18/10/2014 12:52

I don't know where I am this month! Had a positive opk on the evening of cd10 and then the next evening it was negative. I normally get at least 2 days of positives. Have been taking my temp but no rise yet and it's cd13 now. I don't know if it's because I still have a slightly stuffy nose so may have been breathing through my mouth without being aware and that has affected it or if it's possible for ov to be delayed this long after positive opk?

When I went for my scan on cd8 she said that she could see I would ovulate in the next few days?! I normally ovulate around cd12/13 so maybe it's just late?

Katybear123 · 18/10/2014 13:11

Hi all

Kitty I wish you all the luck in world with the scan, let's us know how it goes gosh time has flown!

Dozy uti's suck I had them chronically when I was 17. I was refered to a specialist In the end. I learnt a few tips which might help. Cranberry tablets these help things get back to normal, lemon barley will help take any sting out of things, 2 litres of water a day from now on. No exceptions! After dtd u need to weee to get any bacteria out of the bladder. It's dtd that sadly pushes bacteria there! And when u wee u need to make sure it's all out, I know that sounds dumb but if ur anything like me I was a wee and go girl and what ends up happening if u don't is u leave the bacteria there to breed sadly. Last tip make sure u go for a wee as soon as u feel u need it never cross ur legs and wait. I hope it helps

Beaker grrr poor u

Lucieloo grr I hope u gear up soon

What a n active bunch we are. I just finished netball, shattered an hour at centre! I can barely move, an afternoon on the sofa beckons

xBlueberry88x · 18/10/2014 13:24

spinning excitinggg fx its implantation i got a bit excited to

Sorry to everyone that AF got

Sorry cant catch up properly im on my mobile.

Had a fair bit of ewcm woohooo fx for positive opks soon

Frolicacid · 18/10/2014 13:40

Wwww! Promising knicker situation spinning!! Fx it's implantation bleeding.

I am on major crotch watch!! No sign of my period yet. I always get this thing around period time where I jet my words jumbled and feel really clumsy. It's hard to explain, but is a sure fire sign of menstruation for me. I had it all day yesterday, but today it's gone. I don't know what to make of it.

Just popped to the shop and decided not to buy a test, at least until tomorrow (if no sign of period). Home bargains have a first response type thing which I will probably get.

You are all making me feel very lazy with all your running, swimming, netball etc!! I've not moved much at all today. Will take the dog out in a bit, but can't go far or to the beach as she has stitches.

Boosk · 18/10/2014 14:11

Good luck for later dreaming, everything crossed for you.

lucie, sorry you are having a confusing time FX for a peak tomorrow.

Boosk · 18/10/2014 14:13

Aww frolic cuddles to frolicdog Smile

Dozygirl · 18/10/2014 14:41

Thanks katy will try some of those things. I suffered sirh them for about two years then it stopped for almost two years and they've come back with a vengeance. I only dtd once on Thursday and I went for a wee afterwards coz didnt want to get a UTI but I still got one. I've not been drinking much though because of wanting to have a strong urine for my opk tests haha. And leaving it four hours to have a wee as that's what the instructions said. Might have to just ignore that tho if I don't want this pain. Really thought the antibiotics would have cleared me this time.

spinningirl10 · 18/10/2014 15:31

Thanks ladies, it was only a little and had a bit more just now but only when wiping.
Took ds to party, got the wrong day it's tomorrow!

Blueberry, yay for ewcm, fx for +opk soon.

Dreaming, enjoy date night and fx af stays away.

Frolic, fx for you.

TheGrandHighWitch · 18/10/2014 16:18

Afternoon ladies. Sorry to those with af arrivals. FX for you spinningirl10, sounds good as it's only little.

I think we have become cycle buddies this month EnglishGirlsReturned. I am also waiting for a higher temp tomorrow to confirm ovulation and should be 2dpo today. I took the soy isoflavones this cycle though and had another positive opk today which is very unusual for me as I usually only get one right near ovulation and todays makes 4 in a row Confused. I have also had some twinges this morning on my right hand side so wondering if i'm going to end up ovuating twice lol. Going to dtd tonight to be sure of catching anything going on.

Treaclepie19 · 18/10/2014 16:27

Eek spinning!!! Exciting!

MrsExtraOrdinary · 18/10/2014 16:31

How many dpo are you spinning and when will you test?

ChandlersFarang · 18/10/2014 16:31

Hi you lot! Just checking in from Malaysia, gone to Penang for the weekend. Just had a crazy little eve with DH in Little India eating South Indian food, and bought a massive bag of different spices for 70p!! Love it! Have been discussing future trips - the usual debate between "well if I'm pregnant..." And "...we can't put our lives on hold just in case". The latter always wins, probably for the best! Will keep enjoying it whilst we can, the only upside to my child-free we zone! GrinGrin

Spinming I'm super excited for you!!! Sounding really promising, eek!

Kitty, can't believe you're at 12 weeks now!! Good luck with your scan, we'd def love to see a pic of mini kitty. Smile

Back in for another scan on weds - am definitely off the pregoween bus already but can't quite leave/it you all just yet! Who'll be next for a BFP...?? X x x x

ChandlersFarang · 18/10/2014 16:32

*WOMB ZONE
Duuuuuh!!!

mzzzf · 18/10/2014 16:40

How bloody inconsiderate of your ovaries to leave me solo for a Halloween BFP Wink. Hope the scan yields some goodies though Chandlers!

Spinning that all sounds very encouraging!

Just returned from a huuuuge dog walk/hike and now smugly eating a brownie and drinking a bucket of coffee Grin

Tranquilitybaby · 18/10/2014 16:49

Good luck Spinning hope this is your month x

Thanks ladiesGrin trying to not get my hopes up but it's hard, I know it just makes it tougher if af arrives!

MrsE, ff says I'm 7dpo but I think I could be more, maybe 9dpo. I ordered some frer on bogof from super drug and they're not here yet. Sensibly I guess I should wait till mid week but realistically it could be Monday as I do have some ic's Grin
Hmm Monday will be too early......I hate waiting. Will probably see what my temps do for the next couple of days.

lindamagoo · 18/10/2014 17:46

Oh spinning I have everything crossed for you Smile please let it be ib x

spinningirl10 · 18/10/2014 17:54

Ah thanks LindaGrin

Chandler, your weekend in Penang sounds fab! So nice you're able to travel whilst you're in Thailand. I'm quite envious Smile
