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!

blue congratulations that's fab news.

Wow so many positives on here its brilliant hope the rest of us get lucky very soon. I'm planning on enjoying a few Christmas tipples but due to test NYE.

shelbTa · 19/12/2015 12:21

This is a great thread, trying to keep up with all the news so sorry if missed something!

Stark id say trust the opks honestly, mine didn't sync in with ovia but they did eventually go darker than the control line (was the morning after a massive night out when my piss was like treacle, funnily enough...)

Blue that is a dark line yknow! I'm tempted to do a digi today but trying to hold off until tomorrow! Have you decided what to do?

drinkyourmilk · 19/12/2015 12:27

runner I'm 10dpo I think. I just go on CM and how I feel, don't do opks so I could be wrong.
Sat at work feeling rough as. Bloated, nausea bleugh. It's how I feel when af is due too though. If she's coming let's hope it's early. I thought I'd git a bfp this morning, but was just an indent. I've not noticed them before on my tests.

Runner05 · 19/12/2015 12:34

Drink most people don't get BFP until 12 to 14dpo so you are definitely not out. What brand were you using that you got an indent on? I started noticing indents that I never had before a couple of days before my BFP Smile

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/12/2015 12:38

I hope the rest of the bfp'er stay here too, I'd be so sad if you all left for the grads thread never to return! I feel like we've got a little club here!

Sorry you're feeling rough drink
shelb I'm more inclined to trust the okp's like you say, they're getting darker as the days go on so will see and try dtd every other day just in case!
runner probably won't get a chance to jump him today mores the pity but ill definetly try and have a go tomorrow Grin

BunchOfBobs · 19/12/2015 12:49

Eek yay Blue. Does it feel more real to you both now?
I for one am not going anywhere, I love this thread. I want to see everyone get a bfp.

Ooh massive congratulations blue and a lovely thing to be able to see and enjoy!

I'm so glad bunch I had a moment where I thought everyone was going to leave and was all sad! How are you feeling today?

OP posts:
BlueGirl1982 · 19/12/2015 13:03

Oops, double post, sorry!

I'm shocked and excited and freaked out all in one!

I'll be sticking around to see more bfps...anyone who thinks they're out, it's so true that without AF you are not out!

drinkyourmilk · 19/12/2015 13:13

I use amazon cheapies; One Step.
I'm happy to keep hoping till she comes to get me!

stark I'm not going anywhere! Even if I do get bfp. This is the first thread I've felt welcomed, you are all so lovely sniff.

KatOnATinRo0f · 19/12/2015 14:07

Yes I was feeling a bit sad that all the BFPers would be off. A bit like not getting picked for the netball team until last sniff But huge congratulations to everybody nonetheless please don't leave us.

So last Saturday before the big man arrives... Anyone battling the shops? Any Xmas parties to attend??

LaraG13 · 19/12/2015 14:15

Huge congrats blue!! I'm finding this thread really positive and loving hearing all your stories.

Drink I've got fx for you! You're not out!

My AF is due 29th so I am going to try to just enjoy Xmas and hold out testing until then.

I have Xmas shopping to do but think I'll postpone until Monday ( I'm off work). Can't face the craziness!

leoniethelioness · 19/12/2015 14:18

Congratulations, Blue!

Runner, I'm not doing OPK so not sure how many DPO I am. I'd guess at 13 DPO but could be wrong. That's going on CM and Ovia fertile window only.

I have learnt my lesson now and won't be testing in the future until the day after I expect my period.

My last two cycles were about a week different in length so I think I'm due AF on Tuesday but if this month is like the cycle before last it could be the following week. I have a spare FRER which I'll use on 23 or 24 if I need to! Pretty convinced I'm put as FRER about 75% accurate at this stage unless my dates are really out.

leoniethelioness · 19/12/2015 14:21

Assuming I tested at 12 DPO yesterday and not even a hint of a line. Still got the ouchy boobs though.

New York was great. We saw so much and there was still more to see!

leoniethelioness · 19/12/2015 14:23

Clearly meant to say "out" up there. Counting down the days to AF so we can start again. Got back on it this morning... DtD for fun is just as good as for baby making!

Runner05 · 19/12/2015 14:37

Woohoo Blue there's no arguing with that Grin

I'm not going anywhere without the rest of you Grin it's still great to see lots of new people and watching everyone get their BFPs.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/12/2015 14:48

That's what I'm trying to focus on leonie dtd being fun for fun sake! I'm still aiming for every other day this week in case according to mydays I'm just coming into my fertile week! I've been having a look and as far as I can tell I've got a 37 day cycle! So ovia was predicting from a 30 day cycle, whereas mydays which I've been using far longer may have more of an idea based on past periods etc.

lara it's lovely isn't it, reading all this loveliness and the happy stories!
drink Good! I'm so glad you feel like that too! It's been so awesome to have such a supportive little clan here who completely get where my mindset is at!
kat I've got loads to do, presents to get, and I can't get motivated at all! I'm not even bothered either! Once we're back from visiting dh's family ill set my mind to sorting mine out! I've ordered some stuff online but I've told Dh that we're not doing presents between us! I don't want/need anything and I'd rather save it and buy baby stuff when the time comes!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/12/2015 14:49

Yar runner so glad you're staying too! Can't believe the original plan was to wait till January! And so many bfp's already! It's so lovely to see!

Starky - sending magic fertility dust your way this week xxxx

I'm staying too! X

LaraG13 · 19/12/2015 15:32

Yay! Stay with us BFP ladies!

stark, doesn't matter when your egg turns up, as long as it does and you're dtd every few days you're in the game!

Dubbya · 19/12/2015 16:20

Glad those who have got bfp are hanging around, it's great to have your insights and to hear how it's all going!

runner have no idea how many dpo as I wasn't tracking for the first week and a half after my withdrawal bleed but Ovia reckons I should try now!

I'm worried to test though as I'm sure it'll be bfn and then I'll be disappointed so I'm kind of waiting for af to see what happens, though I did buy some tests on Friday. I'm away this weekend so that's helping take my mind off it!

Dubbya · 19/12/2015 16:21

That should have said Ovia reckons I should test now.

BunchOfBobs · 19/12/2015 16:23

I vote test Dubb. Putting off a potential bfn will just make you more disappointed as the longer you wait the more your subconscious will kick in with a "ooh it may be a bfp". Get it out of the way and test daily until AF arrives (then you're fully in control of knowing) or the amazingness of a bfp!! That's my thought process anyhoo Smile
