Thread 6! Wowzers! Welcome one and all! Group of weirdos, wee hoarders, covert opk or okp, depending on what your autocorrect decides addicts with a side business in cm management!

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kat, a resident piss stick queen runner, loaaaaaads of bfp'ers who keep us positive! We don't have rules, we love a good symptom spot, we try to stay grounded and not be hysterical sometimes we manage it aswell

But on the whole, we're a good bunch, especially bunch who is literally, a bunch. bunch

starky you crochet?!?!?! I'm obsessed with babies in proper woollen clothing. It's the cutest 😍 I literally wouldn't have a clue, I'm 'outdoorsy' 😂 I used to event with my horse, too. No time now I'm a grown up... booooo!

Sorry Harriet got a little carried away. I promise I'm not making macaroni pics with my vaginal fluids.

LisaTheGreek · 13/01/2016 20:14

Confusedcat - can I join the buddy system? Also in the middle of my FW according to Ovia and dtd every other day.

I was worried DH was getting a little bit stressed about it as he does tend to overthink things. Right in the middle of it (ahem) last night he said something and I just burst into giggles (can't even remember what it was). He looks so offended as I basically couldn't continue. But then he ended up giggling too and we ended up like a couple of silly school children.

Sometimes not taking it so seriously is the way to go though I'm an obsessive person so do what I say rather than what I do.... Grin

Holly300 · 13/01/2016 20:18

Wow new thread :) so much to read through - finally there!

Holly 31, ttc#3 c1 cd16

Still waiting to ovulate!! So frustrating as I'm using the clear blue dual opk tests and I've had 6 days now of a flashing smiley face (which means an increase in oestrogen, which happens before lh shows up) waiting patiently to get a non flashing smiley (lh) hurry up already!!

Choc all signs are pointing towards bfp - I hope it happens for you!

Stark I've been there - very frustrating!!

AllyBali123 · 13/01/2016 20:22

Age: 29
TTC#2
Cycle #7
cd: day 25
Testing: 17th jan-ish

Ok it's not been a good day, I caved and bought tests! Far to early to test but I bought a bunch of home bargains cheapo tests and done one tonight (not even FMU) So of course a bfn.

still cramping tummy and back and my hunger has went crazy style, eating everything in site. I'm usually a bit chocolate crazy at this point in the month but I'm just hungry for everything right now!

With my dd I don't think I had this it was more feeling a bit sick so I think I am just imagining this as a symptom....???

Cthulhoo · 13/01/2016 21:03

Miley ooh, I like your thinking!

Chocaholic88 · 13/01/2016 21:08

Horse dancing stark 😂😂 the amount of people that use that term to me when we publish dressage articles!!

Yayyy for emojiis evergreen 👏👏👏

Thanks holly ... symptoms say yes, HPT said yes 4 times then no ever since with no bleed since stopping the pill , blood test looks negative, midwife and OH still convinced I am, and I'm all over here trying to stomach food smells 😂😂

Holly300 · 13/01/2016 21:30

Sorry Choc if this has already been asked before, but how long has it been since you came off the pill?

drinkyourmilk · 13/01/2016 21:39

3 pages into a shiny new thread already! Thanks stark.
choc you have the patience of a saint, I'm be climbing the walls now and demanding a scan. Even my dh has everything crossed for you.

TTC# 1
Test date 19th Feb.

Chocaholic88 · 13/01/2016 21:44

I stopped the Zeletta mini pill on 12th December holly

Awww thanks drink ... Apparently there's no point giving me a scan because if I am then I've given no reason to think it's not healthy and fine and if I'm not then a scan is pointless... helpful huh!!

Holly300 · 13/01/2016 21:54

Wow Choc I didn't realise it had been so long Wink

Kathrino · 13/01/2016 21:54

Gosh choc, what a confusing situation. I'm so impressed that you've stayed sane! Keeping everything crossed for some good news soon.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 13/01/2016 22:07

miley Can't remember of I've posted this picture but here's some of the stuff I've been making, not quite finished off. I'm currently making a sleep sack for a friend's gestating baby which I'll post a pic of when it's finished.

No af yet!

choc I've not got a clue, I just go and shove mints in the front end and then get told off because the horse gets nippy and follows me when it's supposed to be concentrating!

Thanks for the list Wonderkat (yes I am slowly applying random nicknames... we also have Batstark 😂) I hope you're correct on my part 😂😂

I've just realised that I usually pee straight after dtd. Is that wise atm? Don't want to flush it all away, but also don't want to be lying around feeling soggy for no benefit!

MyMrKnightley · 13/01/2016 23:14

Can I join in? been majorly lurking and pretending that I'm just letting nature take its course. Came home to be told by husband that he mention to friend that we were trying. So officially ttc1 yey! Off pill since July so cycle 6? Testing 30/1

Holly300 · 13/01/2016 23:23

OMG Irregular, I know exactly what you mean! So uncomfortable after Dtd but agree, don't want anything to escape ;)

Holly300 · 13/01/2016 23:25

Welcome MyMrK!

ElleSarcasmo · 13/01/2016 23:31

Woohoo new thread! Thanks President Batstark! Thanks again Wondercat (now got the theme from thundercats running through my head on loop, thanks Choco) for the list 👏

Loving the crafting suggestions Miley! God I got some dirty looks on the train snorting at that! Imagine how much more disgusted people would be if they knew what I was laughing at!
