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?

No I'm CD 16 of a 25 day cycle

StarkyTheDirewolf · 27/01/2016 23:43

It could still happen kat our bodies seem to delight in doing fucked up things to mess with our heads. But I'm with you on the "I fucking hate you, stupid uterus and dickhead fallopian tubes" right now. Flowers

So I binned all of the OPKs this aft but just fished them all out to take a photo. They may not be in exactly the right order so it's not too accurate but it's quite right- the positive one - it didn't show as darker than the control until I looked at it again a few hours later. Within 10 mins it was lighter so I just left it and went on wth my day thinking tomorrow would be the day. So think I missed it dtd wise. As it looks like I ovulated somewhere

So happy for you evergreen! I knew you'd be clear!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 28/01/2016 00:15

Hmm, it does look like you had a lh surge. But I wouldn't say an absolute positive, I'm looking up surges for us now. I've lined all mine up and just done another one now for posterity and comparison. Shall post a pic for you as soon as it's seasoned.

KatOnATinRo0f · 28/01/2016 00:34

The second photo is the most accurate as actually in the right order! Ha. I did also have a problem that I was really thirsty so my wee was a bit dilute for some of them. Can't remember which ones now. Next month might have to write down time taken and when I drank. I wasn't convinced any of them were positive tho. This is so difficult :(

StarkyTheDirewolf · 28/01/2016 00:36

Ok, so here is my weeks worth since the day after af departed. I had to use the flash so the test lines look paler than they are. Opk on its own is the one from this afternoon when I first did it, after about 10 mins, that's what they've all looked like pretty much. All opinions welcome.Grin

starky I think you should go see a doc who can shed some light for you. Either you have a lot of LH naturally or you bought a dodgy pack! Do you always tend to get this after af?

ever I knew you'd be clear! I'm happy you got the result you wanted girl. Wahoo! now you just need to trim your partner down to...ahem...size.

Yes, I did tell DP... I couldn't keep it to myself. I'm a squealer Blush

Thank you all again for the lovely messages Flowers still a lovely line there thus am so am excited to use frer tomorrow.

Bananarma · 28/01/2016 06:42

Morning everyone. Busy workday for me today so just saying have a great day whatever you do x

Chocaholic88 · 28/01/2016 06:45

Just poking my head in between nausea and a frisky 3 yr old who decided to wake up at 5am (precious little darling cough )

The folic acid is what makes your wee radioactive stark ... same goes for asparagus kat ... crazy right! I'm taking seven seas pregnancy vitamins and they've been fab ☺☺

miwelaisjacydo · 28/01/2016 06:56

Hello everyone! Hope today finds us all well?
Been so tired last few days also feel nauseous various times of the night and day.

Chocaholic88 · 28/01/2016 07:02

How many DPO are you mi

I've got ridiculous insomnia at the moment.

Just did the last FRER in the house... partly because OH and I wanted to see the line come up again, that little pink beauty popped up within 10 seconds. Still barely anything showing on the ICs so be wary ladies ❤

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 07:03

choc I'm with you on the radioactive wee! I take Centrum pre - pregnancy will switch to during pregnancy ones after my 6th positive test!

You too banana! And miw sounds promising?! When you due to test

miwelaisjacydo · 28/01/2016 07:08

Af due Monday am holding off testing til at least Friday when tests from Amazon will arrive. ( I Live rurally and if I was to go to chemists to get one I would be spotted and everyone would know.)
Incidentally at weekend am off to friends who farm. They are lambing and usually her boys take me on a tour. Now I need an excuse in case I am.

Chocaholic88 · 28/01/2016 07:12

miley OH just had me do the last FRER in the cupboard, mainly because he likes the line. It came up within 10 seconds but look at the IC... barely anything there and it's now been 15 mins... no where near as sensitive as they state they are!!

FXSkip · 28/01/2016 07:20

starky and kat remember I was moaning last week that I'd had nothing but nearlys on the OPKs, then I stopped testing over the weekend, then got 2 clear positives yesterday - it obviously can happen! I was beginning to think that I had a low amount of LH naturally but now not sure!

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 07:29

Choc that is an absolute beauty! This is my ic from this morning which is slightly darker. OH still is dubious he doesn't understand pregnancy tests so said he's cautious until the line is dark

Chocaholic88 · 28/01/2016 07:31

Definitely a line miley ... now go get yourself some Seven Seas pregnancy vitamins! 3 packs for 2 at tesco atm 😉

IrregularCommentary · 28/01/2016 07:52

Ok, cheapie just now with fmu. I think there might be a line... it's the faintest thing I'm the world, but there's pink to it so I don't think it's an evap (wishful thinking?)

I can't get a decent picture for the life of me, but here goes....

miwelaisjacydo · 28/01/2016 07:54

Oh i can see a line irregular 😜

Mileymoocow · 28/01/2016 07:54

Yes irregular that's a line!!!!!!

ElleSarcasmo · 28/01/2016 07:55

Kat in the second picture, the third and 4th ones look positive to me.

Starky no clue why you would have a run of positives Confused

Evergreen so pleased your test results came back ok, you must be so relieved.

Miley can definitely see a line!

Choco I am pretty shocked about the ICs, are they meant to be the super sensitive ones?

IrregularCommentary · 28/01/2016 07:56

I think I'm crying. Definitely shaking a bit. Wholeheartedly wishing dh didn't go to work so bloody early!!!!

Going to get a frer today I think and test again tomorrow.

(For now though, in the calmest not getting my hopes up way possible, squeeeeeeeeee!!)
