So it's John Wayne vs Les Dawson in The Great British Pee Off and Prty's judging... get ready to be basted, lovelies!

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 anything 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

And our most recent thread here -

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2458534-Prtys-Gang-and-The-Festival-of-Foof-Fun-when-they-not-being-cray-cray?pg=1&order=

We are symptoms spotters extraordinaire - 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

Ladies, getting seriously pissed off now! Got a "peak" on the CBAFM this morning. When I removed the stick there was a diagonal smear where the second line would be so it was basically bollocks! The IC OPK this afternoon proved it was a false reading. My temperature has been low for 3 days straight now which is weird as well, I've got no idea what is going on with my body at the moment. Feeling very frustrated!!

Thanks for all the congratulations on the house

Neetie and Mrs Flowers sorry that you are both having a bad time. Neetie I would go to the doctor - it might make you feel better and as MrsFlowers says you could always tell them you have been trying a year . I think it depends who you see - if you get a GP who has been through TTC turmoil themselves they may well be more sympathetic and get some investigations going.

Shary I have had false positives on the CB OPK before too.

Thanks guys feeling a bit better just really fed up. Will post a better pic of the dogs, Sasha (black ) is 2 and Oscar is almost 6

Ahhh they look like lovely dogs!!! These are my three fur babies (if the attachment works!)

They are all so cute!!! Here's a pic of my daft mutt too

Pirsy I don't really trust CB. I just feel like I have to use the monitor because I spent so bloody much on it! Think I'll ditch it next cycle though because I prefer the IC's anyway. The sticks for the monitor cost a fortune and there's a pattern to the results- you always get two peaks etc.
I once used the CB monitor and the CB dual hormone OPKS with the same FMU and got peak on one low on the other!!

The monitor is flipping annoying. I hadn't realised before I bought it that it just gives results automatically in a lot of circumstances: it's not hugely helpful is it?

Awww lovely pics :) I'm totally at cat person btw but my ball of fluff never stand still long enough for a decent photo!
I don't know anymore what's symptoms and what's my cray cray body. Tired to the extreme, weird kinda fishy taste to everything I eat (like cod liver oil!) still feeling full of cold and mild constipation :/ awaiting AF to turn up tomorrow, if not then POAS Saturday

Morning everyone!
Loving the cute pictures- I've got 3 cats and they're as mad as anything!
prty - your symptoms sound very promising, I'm getting my hopes quietly up for you.
Sorry to neetie and mrsflowers - af is a total bitch. I totally understand how you are feeling. Just look after yourselves, think forward to next cycle

Morning all. Well AF is here Actually woke me up in the night it's so heavy (sorry TMI). I have given up trying to understand and symptom spot (I say this firmly now but watch me fail miserable next TWW!)

Prty did AF arrive? Agree with Kitten your symptoms sound positive! FX for you.

Anyone else due to POAS soon? I am going to live hopefully through all you!

Sorry you're out again Mrs F I'm due to POAS again tomorrow, it'll be CD31 I think. No symptoms but also haven't had AF symptoms either which usually come ages before AF so FX.

We are seriously due another BFP on this thread!

Fingers crossed mummy! Yes we are well overdue a bfp on this thread - I'm really hoping for you and prty
mrsflowers , hope that bitchy af buggers off soon

Still another week and a half for me to go before I'm allowed to POAS (assuming no AF appears in the meantime). I expect that will be a BFN though.

I agree we need a BFP soon, though! It's definitely been a miserable month for lots of us.

Turns out my CM was v. confusing becuase I had some residual thrush post coil (that was the definite downside to the coil - regular thrush!). Once I took something for it, it's clearly been EW the last few days, and I've bought some non-sperm-killing lube too. Temp has been 0.1 up on the previous average today and yesterday, but I'm not sure if that's becuase I've got a cold. I think that's more likely than that I've ov'd.

I love all your pets - we don't have any, but we hope to get a dog in the future, once we have a garden.

rose - we're cycle buddies then, I will be poas in about a week and a half too. Although haven't confirmed ovulation so am guessing a bit really. I am thinking about investing in a thermometer to see what's going on - might save me a fortune in pregnancy tests that are always negative!

No clue what's happening. No cramps and no bleeding as yet very odd

Momentous day!! I've taken the batteries out of my CB monior & ditched it in the wardrobe! Screw FMU I can't be arsed anymore!!

Lol shary that's really funny! I have boxed my OPKs up and I haven't touched them in three months!

Oooo FX for you Neetie! Was AF due today?

Shary that is the first smile I have had all day

Ha Shary that did make me laugh!

haha shary nice little chuckle while I indulge in a costa caramel latte.. This is my 'I deserve it this week' treat!!

Pahahaha shary freedom!!!!
poppy I'm
Very jealous!
No AF yet, either 6 days over due or due tomorrow :/ had some very mild and short AF type cramps yesterday

Af is due on Sunday so she could still make an appearance

Still very weird just swabbed with cotton bud and it's lighter than yesterday. .. It always gets heavier the closer to af it gets not lighter

neetie I suggest you throw your body in the bin and get a new one.

I'll be joining you. Dreading POAS tomorrow, not sure I can face another disappointment

Haha mummybex am very tempted
