Very nice of Amazon to offer me discounts, but someone should tell them that ordering bulk packs of piss sticks does not mean you want this to pop up when you try to check out!

Such fabulous news Tessie. I am delighted for you. Here's to a very happy and healthy nine months.

Ouch! Give us a chance amazon!

Sparkly123 · 11/04/2015 11:59

ibeka great news about the fainter line lovely. Fingers crossed you can get started soon. Totally agree about the likeness to a Facebook thread. I don't understand it.

Butterypants you have hit the nail on the head quite a few times there! I'm so glad you feel that way about the buses. Although Blushat the thought of me being a fertility priestess ha ha!! I can't believe anyone would post over there about Purdie leading this "nazi camp" as someone has so eloquently put it Hmm They have clearly never read a page of our threads.Purds as always, you give us strength, knowledge (it's power aint it?!) wisdom,humour and kindness...anyone who doesn't see that from your posts, is quite frankly delusional. Anyway - Butters CD 2 is a bugger, but better than CD 1 and def better than CD 37! You know where you are now. We are gonna be cycle buddies I think too! Woooo! Did you organise a day 21 blood test??

choppers great news re cramps! Ohh another Bumsnet birthday!! This is your month!!

Baker good luck for the mad dash around the house! Hope you are feeling better today. Re gluten free cakes. Go to honestly healthy website. They have allll gluten free cakes that taste insane! good luck finding the ingredients though

Daisy everyone else has said what I was going to I think.i hope you can find a way to discuss it all together. It's definitely going to have a negative impact on your dh health-obviously fertility too, but his health is the most important thing, so finding a way to cut back is absolutely crucial.everyone else has given great advice on how to approach it.. Good luck lovely, I know it won't be easy.Flowers

mummy wooo almost OV time! Hope that pain is ok today.. Very strange!Flowers

Oyster sure you can compete! Ha. Go! Oh you have .. Good work! GrinStar

Pixa oh lovely. I'm sure you will feel better for it after going? It's the thought of it right? You can do it!! Def true about blood flow during AF and exercise night . You are absolutely not being dramatic lady. These are all things that go through everyone of our TTC messed up minds! Don't worry. It's natural. Don't beat yourself up over it. Ha ha Mr Grey wasn't impressed with the bbter?! Ha ha. Hope you set him straight on where it's going!Wink

Night how's it going? You keeping yourself together ok?Flowers

Dizzymerry hope you have lovely things planned today to distract you for the weekend. Flowers

Spinning been thinking of you.Flowers lots.

Melon just sending more strength your way. So sorry you are going through this harrowing wait! Flowers

Woolly Froggy you had a lie in too?! You lucky buggers! But kinda with Purds I'm a late night gal. After a shower. .... And toothpaste. Hmm

auxiliaryauroch · 11/04/2015 12:14

Omg tess I knew it! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!

Oysterbabe · 11/04/2015 12:17

It varies from person to person chops. Last month I oved the day after my positive opk and AF started at 13dpo. I reckon your AF of due in the next day or so.

ThePug · 11/04/2015 12:36

Eeeeek tessie! Congratulations, I am so so happy for you! Expect you won't need to get on the plane to get home later, you can just float your way back on cloud 9 Smile

Purplecuddlykoala14 · 11/04/2015 12:49

Congrats Tessie enjoy your holiday
Pixa worth going to the GP now, just say you're concerned about short cycles and can they check your progesterone levels.
chops fx for you this month.
Hope everyone else is having a good Saturday.
Sorry I've been a bit AWOL not much going on as only CD 6. Started on the super strength B vits, glad someone mentioned it gives you radioactive pee, else it would of freaked me out. DH has is a bit poorly, I'm i bad for only thinking he'd be better in time for fertile window next week?
daisy I find coaching works well with my DH, if he thinks it's his idea he is more likely to do something.

DizzyMerry · 11/04/2015 12:55

Ibeka that's good news. I hope that line gets darker for you but in the meantime get shagging!!!

Well said butters. These buses are not only supportive but also so much fun to be on, full of amazing and wonderful ladies. I would be so lost without you all. Some of us don't talk to anyone in RL about our issues so this is a good place to chat and rant.

Daisy I hope you can have a chat with your DH and I really hope things improve for you.

Chopsface good news about the absence of cramps.

Night are you feeling better lovely?

Oh gosh sparkly I completely forgot about my blood results what with the madness of last night and then enjoying my icecream to cool me off!!! It's my nephews birthday today and we're out tomorrow so that should keep my mind well of it.
How are you doing lovely? Has the spotting stopped?

Purdie you are a fountain of knowledge, supportive and willing to give up some of your free time to look at fellow passengers charts. You and mummy did a great job with the supplements. I think we are all in agreement that our buses are wonderful!!!

Oh and did we get anymore insight into the inositol?? Would love to know what others think

Oysterbabe · 11/04/2015 12:56

Not at all Koala, I've told my OH that he better damn well knock me up before his operation in June as he's going to find it pretty painful when I make him DTD anyway.

21DPW today (days pre-wedding). I might put my dress on and flounce around the house in it for a bit as he's out for the day. I need to check that my stick on bra is up to the task and isn't visible.

Sparkly123 · 11/04/2015 13:05

I'm sorry I'm having a meltdown here. I need my Bumsnetters stat. The black stuff stopped last night. Now I have brown stuff again and AF due today. I stupidly tested today because I wanted to put this cycle behind me and move on and give myself the reasurance.
The IC has a pink line so I just did a frer and it's a pink line but not strong.
I know there's nothing anyone can say right now and it's a matter of time. I just need tips on how the eck to cope with this after last time. Scared to even think it's possible because I still have the brown bleeding which is how last time started. Someone knock some sense into me!!!!! Purdie get your ass here pronto!!! demanding

OMG Sparkly
I don't have anything useful to say except eek!!! I really, really, really hope this all works out well for you.Thanks

ibeka · 11/04/2015 13:15

Sparkles, this is good. Better than good - amazing news!! Brown spotting could be implantation bleeding? I don't know how to calm you other than to say breathe deep and think positive! I think it was you that said to me at my BFP and I was already worrying, 'you are pregnant now so enjoy being pregnant'. There is no reason at all this bean will not be sticky and you so so deserve it to be! FX and congratulations.

DizzyMerry · 11/04/2015 13:16

Sparkly I really don't have anything useful to say either!!! I really, really hope with everything I've got that this works out well for you and you get a sticky bean Flowers

ThePug · 11/04/2015 13:17

Sparkly Looks like a big fat sparkling positive to me! I know it would be early days but keep up the positive thinking and we're all here to support you lovely Have you shown DH?

Sparkly123 · 11/04/2015 13:18

Thanks loves. Sorry for my meltdown, dh has taken the "logical" approach, time will tell etc etc. The only thing making me worry is the same series of events with spotting that's happening. And black stuff. As is so similar to last time. Usually I'm good at not focusing on previous bad outcomes with things In life, but when you have any evidence whatsoever- in this case, the spotting- my irrational thinking takes over I think!
Thanks for your good wishes. All I can do is hope I think Smile
