Symptom spotters, tww - ers, slightly hysterical hormone laden ladies! Regs, lurkers, intermittent posters! Our raison d'etre is 'am I pregnant?' Depending on how much Ovia (Whybird) has pissed us off/messed with our fw she is either the oracle or a sanctimonious charlatan.

Just a warning, we move FAST! Our threads last on average, about a week before they're full.

Thread 8 , 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!

We do not judge, we enjoy TMI, we i encourage waiting to poas nobody listens and all the grossness you can find from a group of intelligent, articulate ladies. Fart stories make us laugh, stories about cervical mucus, pooing, cysts and nausea equally welcome. Although normal conversation is also encouraged.

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

We like acronyms, we make some up: PET = Proper expensive test. We love the d(h)...which can of course mean 'dearest' or 'dickhead' why, what were you thinking?

Hurray skip. And good timing too!

Miley I meant to say three of my best friends are brothers and they all had daughters within a year - the girls are so cute together. My ds1 is 3 months younger than his cousin, and ds2 and her sister are 5 months apart. Its lovely for them. Smile

Massive Grin at #clitsnotclots and poas in front of the nurse - that sounds like something I would do!

ImpYCelyn · 27/01/2016 17:49

Rofl at sticking phone up your vag kathrino. Make sure you take it out for FW Grin

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 17:56

cat consider your Starky Star privileges revoked! Grin

Thanks holly and everyone else who commented too. I felt dreadful because I was truly trying to be sombre and dignified but when they brought the tiny coffin in, fuck me, my heart broke for them. It's so sad that so many of us have a story to share about it though. I also thought it wasn't as common as it is. But it does make me think that life is so precious and such a gift, fx we all get our bfp. I came home, had a cry and a cup of tea and now I'm feeling like ttc is definitely the right thing to do. You just never know what's around the corner.

In a mood lightening bid after I've shit all over everybody's joy...Apparently I farted in my sleep, Dh giggled and I went "THAT'S entertainment...fucking beauty"...I have no idea what weird place my brain goes to when I'm not compos mentis!

Re: phones in floos...Ovia is on my 7x4 tablet. I sometimes feel like I'm fairly roomy in the nethers after a decent dtd sesh, but there's no bastard way I could manage that kind of girth!

Nevermind starky I'll just make up my own award 😂

That's horrible what you went through today stark. Totally agree that life is too short. It's so sad 😢

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 18:15

Perhaps a Premature poas rubber chicken badge? 🐔😂

Autocorrect changed 'chicken' to 'dick in', so it originally said 'premature poas rubber dick in' which I think is equally appropriate! And also proves my tablet is a dirty bitch, Ovia is clearly having a bad influence!

impy it's so lovely. I was really luck to have 2 cousins and 2 brothers with only 3 years between us all! We got up to so much mischief.

Question. Why do they tell you to discard a pg test after 10 minutes? I thought I saw a very faint line but then I told myself I was seeing things. Went back up and noticed there was an actual like where I thought but it wasn't that blindingly obvious at the time. I know it's probably definitely neg but I was just wondering. If it was a definite bfn surely there would still be nothing after half an hour?

ImpYCelyn · 27/01/2016 18:18

It's cos of evap lines Miley as puss evaporates it leaves a line where the + line would be. So it's gives a false bfp.

Mileymoocow · 27/01/2016 18:25

Ahh right! I think this is a classic evaporation line. Christ, I'm not surprised so many women think they're pregnant with an evap! They're quite deceiving! That's me done until Friday I promise. Sorry starky, I have failed you

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 18:35

Evaps are bastards miley and because I've only ever before now poas in dread, I'd never taken the time to go back and examine after the initial "oh thank fuck it's negative! " So I never knew the perils of evaps! I forgive you all for premature poas-ing btw! I'm good and benevolent lime that me! But NO AWARDS FOR YOU! 😁

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 18:37

But isn't your test the other way round? My control line has always been the one closest to the green bit, is yours the opposite way round?

OP posts:
Mileymoocow · 27/01/2016 18:39

starky I need pulled back into lime. This is too hard! Plus the postman broght me a shiny new pack Grin

I won't do any more until tomorrow morning Friday.

Is anyone else planning on not finding out the sex? I thought I could cope but I can't even control my urge to piss on a stick.

Mileymoocow · 27/01/2016 18:40

Also now that you've mentioned it, yes...It does appear to be the other way?! Wtf?

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 18:49

Either it's a faulty test or you've got an UBER SUPER BFP! I give you my absolute permission, nay, I COMMAND you go poas right now! We need to test this!

ImpYCelyn · 27/01/2016 18:51

What is that line? Miley do it again!!!

LaraG13 · 27/01/2016 18:55

That's confusing miley!! You should test again for sure!

Chocaholic88 · 27/01/2016 18:56

miley go pee on a stick pronto NOW

AliceScarlett · 27/01/2016 19:01

Do 2!

Planeteer · 27/01/2016 19:01

Maaaah the suspense, it's too much!

Ni4444 · 27/01/2016 19:01

Ovia has been caught snoozing. Entered left pelvic pain and not a dicky bird from her! No "that was implantation", "ooh you could be ovulating", "hooray you're pregnant....psych!", "AF is on her way", or even all the above at the same time! Methinks she's cracking under the pressure!

Just catching up on the days posts...hope you're all well!

AliceScarlett · 27/01/2016 19:07

She told me to wank todayConfused

iPatches · 27/01/2016 19:07

Ni Ovia has given up on my symptoms too. She now just says "you reported...". Which isn't helpful, or interesting.

Miley - that test is definitely upside down - take another!!

I have been feeling horrible all day. Woke up feeling like I am getting a cold, which hasn't helped, but the major issue is the boobs. OMG the boobs. They hurt so much; like a constant ache even when not moving/touched. They feel really bruised, like I've been thumped on both. I could geninely cry. Not sure if this is a sign of anything - been on hormonal BC for over a decade a while so not sure what my actual signs of PMS/AF imminent arrival are. Feeling very sorry for myself and the girls!

FXSkip · 27/01/2016 19:08

Ni she's just fucking with you. Ignore her.

Kathrino you could make a fortune selling wireless intrauterine devices that constantly monitor cm, position, general floo health and also ejaculate speed while it's at it. It could live tweet your entire cycle #clitnotclot #liveovulationupdates

Chocaholic88 · 27/01/2016 19:12

ipatches my boobs were so sore I could have cried last week and I have a disturbing pain threshold! Went from an A to a C. Still big but less painful...however i think it's because I'm almost happy to have them now I've managed to finally track down that BFP lol
