Do you ever have a day without rain in mid Wales Wink only joking. I used to spend a lot of time doing reenactment in Wales and usually had lovely weather.

I think I hear the sound of a test strip bring dipped...

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:16

Gah Starky I guess I can wait that long Grin
Sometimes jt doesn't feel it Runner. I've only been here a year and I've learned November is the rainy month- the entire month!! It's w beautiful place but boy is it quiet. I live in the middle of nowhere. My nearest hospital is over an hour away. But there's a local mlu thankfully (if this sticks).

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:24

Don't go worrying about it being sticky. I'm certain it will!!

I'm not sure I could deal with being quite that rural. I hate cities but I think I'd find being that far out of the way a little freaky.

Have you dipped yet Stark Grin

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:27

Trust me it's taken some getting used to and I still am not keen! It wasbt choice but necessity. Up side- we have an amazing house we wouldn't be able to afford somewhere more urban.

Did I tell you all we bought a "family" car last week and we pick it up tomorrow? MIL already hinting "so is it bunches car or a family car?" "Oh look at all that room for the dog". It's going to be such an anticlimax telling people as they're all already guessing based on the car we bought.

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:30

Lol, what type of car is it?

We're getting a family car in the new year with any luck. So excited!

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:32

Hyundai Tuscon, it's a beast! Very excited about tomorrow, pick up new car, but CB digital and pregnancy vitamins Smile

Any news Stark?

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:35

Stark - I'm with the group - you are 4 days late woman, get the test done and dusted and then at least you'll know either way what's going on. At the moment I'm driving myself up the wall with the uncertainty of everything! Actually laughed when I saw that you are keeping your pee in a tupperware box in your wardrobe..this is what TTC can do the best of us! Wink I can't say anything, I've been "exploding my service" this morning! Grin

Bunch Of course, the white CM had to be both a symptom of pregnancy AND AF! Wink FFS...

Runner - yes, you need to jump him asap.

One thing I think I forgot to mention is that a few days before my mysterious cramps and twinges, I was laughing at something DH said, and then all of a sudden it morphed into hysterical crying. (Not related to anything I can think of, I'm not feeling that emotional about TTC. Not yet anyway!) I'm ok now Confused

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:38

Ooo nice. We looked at the Hyundai one down from that (can't remember the name) but we've decided on a Nissan Qashqai instead. Can't wait to get it. We're getting rid of OHs BMW which we both hate Hmm

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:38

Morwenna it all sounds positive! But we're all from the same crazy symptom spotting place. What day are you testing?

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:40

Mor how odd. I've had the laughter turning into crying before but it's always been when I was very hormonal.

I've just realised I've been on my phone so long I can barely straighten my arm! Confused

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:41

I love the fact that a load of random women who've never met are now actively waiting online with bated breath to see what the outcome is of someone pissing on a stick.

Stark???!

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:42

runner we also looked at the Qashqai. Good choice! We're getting rid of my mini. I may weep.

Starrrkkkkyyyyy we're all waiting ever so patiently!

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:43

According to Ovia, it should be on the 8th! I have no idea how I'm going to be able to wait that long.

BunchOfBobs · 04/12/2015 14:46

When was your fertile window Morwenna? My AF is technically due on the 8th as I have such a long cycle but ovulate early.

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:46

Only 4 more days Mor

Stark have you run away? None of us can get on with our lives until you test Confused

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:46

Sorry, that shouldn't have read 'stick dipping'..

That could be a good icebreaker...'so, tell me, do you dip or piss?'

Runner05 · 04/12/2015 14:48

HA! Mor on here that would probably be considered both acceptable and interesting Grin

00Bubbles00 · 04/12/2015 14:48

Yikes. I am very new to all of this - we are going to start trying in January so I'm a bit early (hope its still ok to join!) but so lovely to find a group of women all writing down the things that are going round and round in my head. www.mumsnet.com/emo/te/8.gif.pagespeed.ce.jNxqqeqaDs.gif

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:50

Bunch - my FW was from 21st Nov through to 26th. According to Ovia.
Clue says slightly different - 19th through to 24th. Was fairly diligent with DTD!! and I went with what my body was doing more so than the app, i.e. EWCM.

Hi Bubbles!! Welcome to the madhouse! (At the moment it really is, as we are waiting for news from one of our members Starky on what a test says!)

Morwenna1 · 04/12/2015 14:52

Starky! Shove her out the door!! Grin

00Bubbles00 · 04/12/2015 14:52

Thanks Morwenna! Its already exciting!

shelbTa · 04/12/2015 14:54
