Hi (big wave)
So you clicked on here cos you were looking for me (I'm flattered!) or the title seemed interesting!
I'm aware it doesn't really explain but we are bunch of lovely ladies all TTC and going ever so slightly crazy with it! For more info see our original thread here - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2412386-TTC-anxious-over-early-pregnancy-possible-symptoms?msgid=56357000#56357000

We are symptoms spotters extrodinaire - you name it we've had it, real and/or imagined Confused
We are here to help, we are all supportive, we laugh, rant, cry, joke, rage, smile, and comfort together. Be you a lurker or poster (established or new) then you are very welcome here. We only have a few rules:

  1. No judgement - we all lead different lives and have different standards and that is fine. You wanna get wasted everyday of TWW, that's fine. You wanna abstain completely, that's fine. We need support, not judgement.
  2. No feeling stupid - we've all had those months where we definitely think we are pg 110% convinced and then AF turns up, don't feel bad about it, it happens. Also we all have different levels of knowledge so no question is stupid apart from the one you don't ask.
  3. On this thread there is no such thing as TMI - we are all adults and we all know how miraculous and amazing... and downright disgusting our bodies can be, it's fine. Share what you want, we will not be fazed.

So that's it, jump in and FX'd for all my lovelies xx

Neetie I meant to say you must be so happy to have your DH back! Fx you will be ovulating this weekend!

I am going to collect mine tonight - he's been on another course, hopefully we won't have a repeat of Tuesday's flat battery disaster.

MrsKittenPie · 02/10/2015 19:03

neetie - glad your dh is back, fingers crossed for your ovulation this weekend!
pirsy - yes don't do the flat battery thing again!
Hope everyone is okay? Have we got some poas-ers tomorrow then? I don't know what's happening with me, af not showed up yet, just some strange brown spotting, wish it would make a start properly instead of messing me about like this, I want to get started on the next cycle

Stripes1983 · 02/10/2015 19:59

I've given up as well prty for the same reason, actually felt better not doing it this month. Got a drs appt next Friday to talk about my blood results as all the nurse over the phone could tell me was they were "fine" ! Haha neetie getting a double dose :) fx you have managed to catch :)

neetie1 · 02/10/2015 20:40

I had a month off opk last month and convinced myself I was pg. Not sure about this month depends if I start getting flashy smiley on kit or if I really have missed it this time

Stripes1983 · 02/10/2015 20:57

Fx for tomorrow then pirsy I think I'm going to hold off testing as pretty sure I'm going to come on by Sunday by the signs , I was so emotionally at work yesterday I almost cried when someone ( a male might I add) asked if I was ok !

Stripes1983 · 02/10/2015 20:59

Oh and I'm designated taxi tomorrow as OH is out on a stag do so no need to worry about drinking anyway which takes the pressure of testing for me!

themoo · 02/10/2015 23:12

Oi birds!
Can't believe I've not been around for days - just busy. Work, life, knocking walls down. As you do.
AF came and went, being a right pain in the bum as usual. Now on the countdown to ovulation but not really feeling sexy at the moment.
Who's up for big fluffy dressing gown, book, bed, maltesers and big long sleeps with me?
pulls back covers and invites you all in

themoo · 02/10/2015 23:15

If you have cold feet you have to bring a hot water bottle though. Thems the rules.

neetie1 · 03/10/2015 06:05

Hi well good news didn't miss this month just got flashy smiley face yay ??

Pirsy1 · 03/10/2015 07:13

BFN this morning for me, as I expected. Hope AF hurries up and this isn't an anovulatory cycle. If not here in a week I will test again.

MrsKittenPie · 03/10/2015 08:14

pirsy - sorry for bfn - it's gutting but you're not out yet if no af, maybe just too early.
neetie - yey for the flashing smiley, great timing with dh back Wink
moo - count me in!!

SunnyScot89 · 03/10/2015 08:14

I got my BFP!!!!!! No idea how to post pictures so you'll jus have to believe me! Very nervous but so excited.

Stripes1983 · 03/10/2015 08:55

Wow sunny congratulations !!
pirsy so sorry about BFN , even though you tell yourself it's going to be it's still hard :( I'm hoping AF hurries up for me too , bored of waiting now!

BittersweetRose · 03/10/2015 09:21

Congratulations Sunny! Looks like you can upload images to attach to a post on the desktop page, at least?

Gosh, OPKs should very frustrating, everyone...!

MrsKittenPie · 03/10/2015 09:50

sunny - congratulations!!!! That's wonderful news. Yes we definitely need to see a pic Grin

neetie1 · 03/10/2015 10:02

I'm kind of glad I went back to opk's really as I know exactly when I'm ovulating, hoping this is the month ... this is month 7 of trying.

Congrats sunny

YouAndMeAreGoingToFallOut · 03/10/2015 14:52

Congrats Sunny!

First "High" day on the monitor this cycle this morning. So back on the merry-go-round I go!

Pirsy1 · 03/10/2015 15:15

Congratulations Sunny!!! Will you remind us of your stats? I've got a memory like a sieve.

Good luck to all those entering high fertility.

SunnyScot89 · 03/10/2015 17:17

Here's a pic.... Hopefully!
Im 26, this will be my first and we've been trying for 3 cycles.

neetie1 · 03/10/2015 18:38

Ok so have getting myself in a bit of a worry...which quite frankly is daft as not even pregnant yet.
Basically was thinking about the tests I will need to get done once we know I am. NHS obviously do the combined test and you can get Harmony/Panorama done privately. Now from reading here and there it looks like on the combined if you are over 40 you get a high risk odds anyway (I'm 43) so it sounds like some people don't even bother with that test and go straight for the Harmony (can be done from 10 weeks) and get the results from that.. It's all very confusing.
Only started thinking about it as DH was chatting about it earlier so did some more reading and then got very confused.

Stripes1983 · 04/10/2015 17:34

Afternoon all - how's everyone doing on this sunny Sunday? Still no AF for me yet on CD37 so surely it's got to be soon!?Confused

glitterpoppy · 04/10/2015 18:10

Hi all.. waves What a lovely thread, just been reading all the posts. Can I join.... I'll share my pizza and Sunday night chocolates??!

My OH and I have been TTC since April after our wedding, I am 30.

My cycle is all over the place and I'm finding it really stressful so far. (This boils down to when I was put on the pill at 16, my periods were irregular then and the Dr said I may have issues when trying for baby when I'm older). Why do Dr's make passing comments like that? Angry

After my first forced bleed, my next cycle length was 47 and then 112.

Not long started taking Agnus Castus to try and regulate me abit better.

Sorry for the v long post!!

SharyBobbins · 04/10/2015 19:01

Evening all!

Congratulations Sunny!

Welcome Poppy! 112 days must have been incredibly frustrating. How many days in to your cycle are you at the moment?

CD25 here so I should ovulate later on this week. Getting a 'high' on the CBAFM and a pretty strong line on my cheap OPKs. So obviously now is the perfect time for me to be getting a cold Sad. Still going to press ahead DTD even if it means me just lying there whilst OH does what he needs to do!!

PrtyPsn · 04/10/2015 19:09

Hi all!!
Sorry, been off the grid all weekend!
Yay for sunny and the BFP!!
Hi poppy you are more than welcome, especially if you're sharing snacks!!
I'll be keeping a small eye on the thread but not tonight so hopefully I'll be able to make a new one in the morning and you won't run out of posts on here!!
