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/Ovibitch) 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 9 , 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.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kat, I have been dubbed the resident piss stick queen 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?

Those are not the best pictures at all

StarkyTheDirewolf · 01/02/2016 18:52

latin if it was implantation, then it would be from now on that your body starts to produce hcg. As hcg only begins to be produced after implantation had occurred. So hold tight and wait a few days and then re-test.

miw I've had a good squint but I'm not sure I see anything there yet mate, give it a few days.

miw I don't see anything I'm afraid! Try again tomorrow tho.

suchajem it is a sad bad bed Smile chocolate and heated teddy thing in place I'm not allowed hot water bottles after a bad incident a few years ago

miwelaisjacydo · 01/02/2016 19:08

Sorry I am such a terrible photographer !!!
There was 2 lines honest 🤓
Af is now here though I think.
This TTC lark is really crap isn't it ?

Runner05 · 01/02/2016 19:08

Item number 9 on the things you have to look forward to list... Baby growth spurts also known as "so this is what it feels like to have an Alien try to burst out of your stomach"

Just thought I'd share Smile

Mileymoocow · 01/02/2016 19:08

miw definitely leave it a few more days. I know it's hard impossible

starky just imagine what he'll do when you get upduffed. Tell him you're worn out and need a foot vagina rub while he's on.

I pissed on an opk today don't ask. I'm a nut job It's mega positive so am wondering if people could just use them for preggo tests and am now pissed I wasted money on 27 million ic's

Short answer is yes, opk's can detect pregnancy... They aren't reliable though and could just be picking up other hormones. Saying that both Shelb and I got our positives on opk's before we got them on pregnancy tests.

stardusty5 · 01/02/2016 19:13

Here to catch up. Sorry to all the witch got!

I declared myself out yesterday but still really just spotting. Don't think it's spotting in a good way as AF often starts like this. Unfortunately DR Google says that aint good.

We do like a full flow ladies, right from the orf!

Hoping she puts me out of my misery over night as technically ovibitch says i'm two days late and should be testing.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 01/02/2016 19:25

runner awww! Baby alien! I appreciate your shares! Gives me something to look forward too! Grin has the morning sickness eased off any? I know now what shelb meant about being sick of the sight of cock and balls! Grin

muw never mind, chin up and all that bollocks! Have a good cry if you needto, open the wine and settle in with some chocolate! Sorry af got you. Flowers in like a week you get to start again!

miley if/when I get my bfp (although I sense im in for the long haul ttc-wise) I'm going to regift all my opk's to someone on here! That is my plan! Although the way I'm going, I won't have any left aside I've gone through 10 this weekend alone! I bought 60 when af arrived! 😁

Indi - really hopeful for you! Grin I tried the cheap internet tests and got a weird faint line 2 days before AF was due. I got the same thing the day before AF was due to I took a Clear Blue test which gave me a very clear BFP. I took both again the day AF was due and test strip was very faint again whilst a 2nd Clear Blue was another very clear BFP. I checked both of them and they both say they pick up hCG at 25mlU/ml but still got different different results. I took a cheap strip test again today (AF due yesterday) and got another VERY faint line. Maybe try Clear Blue the day before AF is due???

Holly - the reason I knew was the boobs, but even with the super-faint test lines, I was adamant that something wasn't right because I felt "weird". Hopefully you will get an answer soon.

It's definitely all about the boobs.

Hope you are all well. I am transitioning between this thread and the grads because I still can't believe I got a BFP.

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:32

Stardusty I'm the same. What I thought was AF is now entering day 3 of spotting. Annoying!! Red witch is apparently on a tricycle rather than in her customary limo! I'm pretty certain I'm still out but wish she'd stop pillocking about and arrive properly!

Miley love that you're still weeing on sticks for the hell of it! That's the sort of poas dedication we like to see Smile

latinata · 01/02/2016 19:33

stardusty I share your (spotting) pain. Just flow or don't, already!

FlyingSpaghettiM0nster · 01/02/2016 19:39

5/6dpo and today has been weird. Felt tired, sick, had backache. I'm not sure if my hips hurt or if it was cramps in the lady region.... I sometimes get sore hips after going on the treadmill... which I did this morning. Did feel really weird though today. I also just ate 2 big spoonfuls of nutella right out of the jar. I'm torn between feeling happy that I ate nutella and sad that I ate nutella. Either way....nutella

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:40

Nutella is always a happy thing. That is the law. Smile

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 19:42

Sorry you're feeling weird though spaghetti. Fx for weirdness leading to bfpness in just over a week's time

FlyingSpaghettiM0nster · 01/02/2016 19:47

Fingers crossed Planeteer (your username is awesome btw)

I was going to test on Sunday, but Starky has inspired me and now I think I will wait until AF is actually due, which is the 11th. I must be strong!

I just had a quick look at my phone calendar and realised that it's pancake day soon..... not that I'm excited or anything

SuchaJem · 01/02/2016 19:50

Mmmm Nutella.

Loving the grad chat, how bloomin exciting. Really hope it get to join you soon!

Runner05 · 01/02/2016 19:54

I just like to keep you apprised of the joy you have to come very soon Stark I do adore my baby Alien I just wish he wasn't quite so intent on making me feel like death warmed up!

No break in the morning sickness yet guess what that used to be is currently one of my favourite games while hanging over the toilet bowl I've just been signed off for another 3 weeks Confused seems like I'm a pretty bad case though and bad morning sickness does run in my family. Most of the other grads have been less whiny had an easier time of it so far.
I'm hoping that this ordeal means that I get a super easy labour to make up for it Wink

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 01/02/2016 19:55

Congrats indi!

flying mmmmm Nutella! Symptoms sound promising!

mi you're not out too you're out!!

snow my temps are odd this cycle too - Lower at this point vs last month but I'm still pre-ovulatory. Your graph looks like you haven't ovulated yet but looks of things can affect temps, so who knows, maybe you have? Keep pissing on those sticks just in case!

I'm CD8 / 28 today. Fw starts mid this week. Been crampier than usual but I think that's down to the higher dose soya this month.

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 01/02/2016 19:56

Can't stop thinking about Nutella now..... Damn you diet!!

Kathrino · 01/02/2016 20:14

Definitely feels like AF is about to arrive which would be a couple of days early but not unexpectedly so. Ugh.

Cthulhoo · 01/02/2016 20:14

Teaching a class today and during the break most are talking about their kids and one classmate's recent pregnancy. So. F*cking. Jealous. :(

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:34

Latinata and Star I'm on cd24 and this is my second day of brown spotting. Think sticky CM too. Boob's sore. Weird plopping sensations down there too. Been go ogling iplamantation bleeding! Arrgghh

Bananarma · 01/02/2016 20:35

Googling Implantation ...even

Planeteer · 01/02/2016 20:39

Ha, love googling as go ogling... Just as apt Smile
