Ttc#1 THREAD 3. Some bfp's, some bfn's, cervical mucus examination class of what was supposed to be January 2016.

[StarkyTheDirewolf]

Join us. It's a boat. Full of okp's and symptom spotting and insanity! But also much love and support! We were supposed to start next month, we already have a few bfp's! Our dps don't know what's hit them!

Thanks Bunch

That books on my reading list. What do you think of it? I don't think I could tolerate reading what to expect when you're expecting again. Horrid book!!!!

I'm enjoying it. Only 64 pages in but it makes me smile and is informative. Nothing patronising about it at all. I bought it second hand on eBay- ex library hook and cost £2.56!!! It is a hefty book though, quite big and heavy.

Pregnancy symptoms kicking in more today. I've peed 5 times in the last hour. Just how I'm going to get through a 1 hour chopper trip later today I do not know!!

Ok, I think I shall have to buy it later

I'm slightly concerned about the peeing as I can already quite easily pee twice in an hour

Off to see Star Wars tonight. How am I going to concentrate?!

I may be completely unbearable today it's just starting to sink in that I really am probably pregnant and I'm sat at work, locked out of my PC thinking "oh my God, oh my God" followed by, what if this two ic's and the FRER are wrong.

Need it to be tomorrow so that I can test again!!!

Thanks ladies

I'm comfortable only DTD every other day (to be honest I think I would get tired if we did it more!) but I just wanted to go two days in a row last night with Ovia saying was peak fertile time (plus I was going with my gut, feeling in the mood)

I think it just made me concerned that he is feeling a bit like a sperm machine! I think if if suggested I extract his sperm into a cup there would be words!!

Thanks bunch and Runner - really reassuring for the likes of me and pink

shelb and drink I still have fx for you.

stark and purple looks like we will all be in our 2ww over Xmas. My AF is due 29th.

Runner it's time to come join the August 2016 board in antenatal groups. Though we should also create a graduate are antenatal group.

It'll take awhile for it to sink in, especially with a lack of symptoms. I barely feel pregnant, just lots of peeling, sore pregnant boobs gigantic nips, and bloating from another planet!!

runner mate you're totes prego! Oh my lord! Exciting! Exciting! Exciting! Ooooooooh do a digi
shelb you're not out yet but how totally confusing! Okp's do detect pregnancy too, how many dpo are you? Have u got a digital ready?
lara yes 2ww over Christmas, pretty sure pink is too.

Thanks guys, I did sleep, I'm quite annoyed at the girl now, she'd clearly been to a Christmas party and had a drink, if there'd been anyone walking on the pavement she'd have killed them. I hope they breathylised her. Her dad was not impressed when he turned up, he was clutching at straws trying tout find someone on blame, but it was only her driving! We live on a main road, straight and quite wide so it's not unusual for people to fly down it.

Bunch I'll come join you soon. I want to read the thread before hopping on

Stark if I have a nice dark line tomorrow I will do a digi, I think the lines might be a bit faint at the moment as digits are less sensitive.

I really don't know whether I'm coming or going right now. Starving so off to get a sandwich but suddenly realised I'm going to have to what he what I'm eating now

Congrats runner!!!
I'm 2dpo and eying up the pregnancy tests already. No symptoms (quite rightly!) other than very gassy this morning. Which could be down to anything really. My temps are going up nicely, I could be getting ill though as I've been around loads of colds this week. I'm on progesterone cream from today which will give me symptoms apparently so at least I can ward off some of the crazy by attributing everything to the cream. Hopefully.

runner I don't know how you're managing to focus on work!

snow you might have a similar cycle to me. It's going to be a loooong wait!!

Snow try and hold out. No point testing yet. On the bright side I found constant testing desensitised me... On the other hand it was completely pointless.

Lara the simple answer is that I'm not lol

Being back at work has made me aware that 1) I feel sick when I don't eat as soon as I'm hungry 2) I'm peeing for Britain lol

runner you're right! Wait till tomorrow, I'd be dipping the little ones all day and night though! Christmas bean!!

Not ovulating yet according to okp. I've been in my fertile week for nearly 12 hours and I'm not pregnant yet! Which is just rude if anything!

snow that cream sounds bonkers!

Hey mama bunch how are you?

pink don't fear, every other day is supposed to be fine! And breathe! It won't be fun if we start getting more obsessive. We have to deep be a the and just petri to enjoy! It will happen! (But a g-string and hold ups can't hurt!) NB: I don't try and seduce my Dh anymore, he's lucky if I've had a wash

Lol Stark you're so funny.

Don't worry about not ovulating yet just make sure you get those sperms lined up so that when you do ovulate they can be all over that egg like chavs on an ASDA Black Friday deal.

Starky if I go by Ovia I have 14 days till pg test. If I ovulated last week instead then only 4 days till rest.

Am having period like cramps today but otherwise feel fine.

I'd start testing in a couple of days then Pink fx!!!

We have to deep be a the and just petri to enjoy!
I love autochange, I think that was supposed to say "we have to deep breathe and just enjoy it!" Don't get the petri dish out just yet! pink

Dh knows I'm ovulating at some point this week, he said he's had a word with his ball and hasn't been in the sauna for a couple of weeks for posterity.

Finally home after my half day

Here's the FRER I did this morning. I forgot how dark it was. It's funny but ever since mid morning I've had a really strong metallic taste in my mouth, as if I've been sucking pennies. I keep thinking I'm just imagining it but it's been getting stronger all day. Also feel a bit like my periods going to start soon but I think that's quite common isn't it?

Shelb was just thinking. Tat opk looks just like mine did before I got my BFP so it could be a positive sign. When were you supposed to test?

Hey Stark, you do make me laugh! I've have such sore boobs, that whilst wandering round a foreign country one just had to go buy one of those magic genie bra things. I bought some non wired ones at the weekend and am wearing one but appear to have already outgrown it so just feel squashed and sore. Oh the glamour! Thankfully still feeling fine woop! And long may it last.

Runner the period esque cramps are totally normal. Mine have finally eased off but still get the odd one. It's all our uterus stretching apparently

Ahh, good good

runner you are totally pregnant as balls! wooohooooooo!

bunch I'm glad you lot get my sense of humour! have you tried the soft sports type bra's from tesco/asda? Two in a pack for £6 job. They're all I wear! I literally have two bra's, and I've only got those because I had to go to a friends wedding and I needed actual breast shaped breasts for my outfit!

Lol "breast shaped breasts"

Ladies, I've created the TTC#1 grads thread (yup that's what it's called)
I'm on my phone so I can't post a link, can someone else do it for me?
