Starky we all felt AF coming just before our bfps. Would it be so awful just to test now...... Wink

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 12:54

Thanks lara and feefs
Oi stark keep positive Mrs! You're not out til you're out!

Snowdog37 · 12/01/2016 12:54

Ooh that's so exciting choc I'm hoping the news is good as they're not making you wait til Friday!

I'm 5dpo now and oh my god I'm tired. I feel like I'm about to get the flu, I couldn't get out of bed this morning. I did though as I have to work Envy my dh is American and his brother has bought us a few tickets for the Powerball lottery as its $1.3 BILLION. Yes you read that right. I know we will never win but for the next day or so I'm going to dream 😄

Starky I hope af stays away.

Anyone else in the 2ww feel like crawling back into bed for the day and binge watching Netflix?

Lanadel · 12/01/2016 13:06

Hi girls!
Had a phone/email mishap but I am back in the game with a slightly different name!
How are you all? Well, I got a BFP the other dayGrin. It was very faint on the one step test so I'm gonna go buy a real test tonight and I'll send you a pic hehe X

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 13:14

Hey lana good to see you back! And congratulations !! Wow we have been so lucky in this thread!!! Can't wait to see photographic evidence !! How are you feeling?

Choc when are you calling back the docs? I'd be ringing every hour until they'd checked it!

Im heading towards out--- had to get hot water bottle to ease cramping. If the witch turns up today at least that's been 2 cycles of the same length in a row (26 days). Have to try to think positively.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 13:16

Congratulations lana wooohooooooo! Another bfp! Amazing news! Grin

choc I do hope it's good news for you! Especially as they got the results so quickly! I'm definetly feeling like I'm out, maybe I should just test, get the bfn and then because I've tested, af will know to arrive promptly! Grin

snow budge up, ill get the kettle on, you choose a good series!

Starky I keep hearing good things about the new Marvel stuff like Shield and Jessica Jones. Not sure if they're in Netflix. I'm going to use our American account later and see Grin bring some whole nut and a fleecy blanket and we will hunker down for the duration 😄

KatOnATinRo0f · 12/01/2016 13:19

Stark and snow can I sit and watch Netflix too? I'll bring Ben and Jerry's.

BunchOfBobs · 12/01/2016 13:19

Yes Starky! Get dipping!!

Congrats Lana we need photo evidence Wink

Snowdog37 · 12/01/2016 13:20

Yay Lana 🎉💐🎉 that's fantastic!

Can someone maths-minded do the stats? What's the percentage of bfps? We are a lucky thread!

Snowdog37 · 12/01/2016 13:21

Kat plenty of room for you too especially if you bring Ben and Jerry with you Grin

Runner05 · 12/01/2016 13:22

Lana congrats! Grin come over to the grads thread as soon as you feel ready Grin

Stark test, test, test, test, test!!!!!! Grin

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 13:28

If I'm not upduffed then I am definitely ovulating now so it's all good... I'm telling myself... lol

Ooo test stark test!!

Lanadel · 12/01/2016 13:29

Thanks girls 😊 I'm absolutely fine, slight cramping now and then and really hot and sweaty at night in bed but that's it.
Stark have you still not tested!?!? Goodness woman, that's willpower for you! Fingers crossed for you x
Runner, can you post the link please?
Choc I hope it's good news today!
Can I jump on this Netflix bandwagon too, it's all I seem to do nowadays haha.
Well I haven't contact my doc yet as I wanted to get darker lines on my one step test first but I'm gonna get a clear blue after work and then I'll let my mum know. X

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 13:34

Just phoned, realised they open at half 1 not 2... Apparently I should phone back after 5pm or tomorrow... HELPFUL 😨😨😨😨😧😧😧😧 I wish they didn't tell me they were back now!

Lanadel · 12/01/2016 13:36

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 13:38

It is lana ... big congrats on your BFP though ☺😘

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 13:38

Right, I tested for you guys, got a fairly epic evap/shiny line on a super drug test but it's definitely a bfn, and now I've tested, af can barge in and announce herself with pride!

I too would like to know our thread stats! But my mental arithmetic starts and stops with adding up ice lollies and Mr. Whippy when I worked on an ice cream van for 5 years in my youth!

Excellent news! It's a veritable party in snows lounge Grin ill bring a mix of nin-alcoholic fizz for the 2ww-ers and some wine or bloody absinthe for the af-ers! 😀👍

Chocaholic88 · 12/01/2016 13:44

Hmmm you sure it's an evap stark ?? Xxx

leoniethelioness · 12/01/2016 13:45

Sorry to hear that, Starky. Fingers crossed for next month.

BunchOfBobs · 12/01/2016 13:45

I second Choc. I think you need to do another brand Stark.!!

LillianFullStop · 12/01/2016 13:47

Congrats lana!!! wow this is a lucky thread :)

choc they have your resultsssssss - fx!!

starky you tested for us! when was AF due? You're not out til you're out I say!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 12/01/2016 13:52

Im 99.9% sure it's an evap, it's got no discernable colour to it, it's just a bit shiny where I would imagine the line would be if it were a bfp, test was still wet but genuinely no colour and very much a squinter faced towards the light, one eye closed, stood on one leg type of squinter, so I'm classing it as a bfn, it was a 10iu one so given its af day I'd imagine there would be some colour to it if it were a bfp if you see what I mean?

I've thrown the wee away now Grin but if there's no af show before Thursday fat chance ill do another one then. Get me to the shops to purchase some wine! Grin
