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?

Indi, Vix, Kath - my boobs went from normal to SO painful between going to bed one day and getting up the next. It's been a week and no change.

AF is due tomorrow and despite the brilliant BFP this morning, I have had cramps all day and so worried that it's all not real. You can't get false BFPs, can you?

Laurenowls · 30/01/2016 22:53

starky is it bad that i already sang it in the tune of soft kitty warm kitty before you even said probably is but hey ho
Think i watch way too much big bang theory xx

Hi Sass!! Hi Flying waves hello
Welcome to ttc crazyland!Grin

I'm still sticking with Ovia...but I have added FF! cos I wasn't spending enough time obsessing! See Planeteer! You're never alone in the house of crazy!

sassenach84 · 30/01/2016 23:03

SpagMon I use Ovia, FF, Clue and PinkPad. Have found Clue the best so far for predictions but I have also used it the longest as didn't have AF for six months after the pill and was just trying to get a sense of things before TTC. Only download the rest in the last couple of months. Having said that, Ovia hasn't been too off the mark either...yet.

Evergreen15 · 30/01/2016 23:04

SpagMon I have Kindara. I like it the best so that is my primary app**
Stark I am signing to that Cervix tune right now

Evergreen15 · 30/01/2016 23:05

Singing

vixarooni · 30/01/2016 23:10

Awesome ipatch!! I'm no expert but a line is a line!!

Ni4444 · 30/01/2016 23:12

I'll tell you one thing I'm sick of post pill...spots either side of my jawline!! Loved my spot-free skin while on the pill! These spots never clear up! Tucked up on the couch with the cat watching To Kill a Mockingbird while the OH is out...he'd never agree to a black and white movie!! Enjoying some Sauvignon Blanc hoping it's my last one for 9 months!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 30/01/2016 23:14

Sorry guys, I've ruined "soft kitty" for you all, what has been seen cannot be unseen I feel powerful Grin

Ive been having a fondle of the old fun bags daily so I can judge when they're getting sore as early as possible. This is no help to me though as I get tender boobs because of af.

starky that soft kitty cervix song made me chuckle, I also sang it the tune before you said!

latinata · 31/01/2016 01:01

So glad I'm not the only one poking my boobs like some weirdo adolescent boy who got a 24 hour free pass.

Me: Boobs, why don't you huuuurt?

Boobs: Because at the slightest twinge you would buy that nice maternity dress which is on sale and we just don't want to be responsible for that.

latinata · 31/01/2016 01:16

Starky, I may need you to promise me a star if I can resist POAS tomorrow @8dpo... we have guests arriving for a week on Monday & the idea of testing next week before dashing to work & having a full house isn't that appealing. I have a shit argentine version of FRER, but am afrered to use it. Ahem.

SuchaJem · 31/01/2016 01:37

Hello zazzles high five to being cycle buddies

Fingers crossed ever and everyone waiting

StarkyTheDirewolf · 31/01/2016 01:42

You will definitely get a Starky's Star if you can wait latin Grin Star no point testing this early anyway lovely girl, even if you've implanted, there will be slim to none chance of you having produced enough hcg for it to show up on a test (even a frer). Get a tiny tupperware and hoard your wee! Handbag? Take it to work and test there!? I hoard wee In the wardrobe if I want some peace and quiet testing. The longer you wait the better your chances! Or just don't test at all until the day after af is due! That's a big challenge I know BUT it's worth it! If af shows you've saved money, if she doesn't, you'll get two epic lines! Grin

www.countdowntopregnancy.com/tools/pregnancy_test_calculator.php this is quite a good little calendar to use to work out when's best to test. It's sassy but honest about bfn percentages on particular dpo.

The witch is here. At least she was punctual. Cd1
Vivid dreams last night about bfps too.

Good luck to all testers today! Looking forward to some new lines

Feefeefs · 31/01/2016 08:32

Afrered to use them! I enjoyed that latin

Moggysinger · 31/01/2016 09:01

star the witch got me too today! Wasn't due for 5 days so bit of a shock. Not upset though, feel positive about a fresh start next month. It just wasn't my month this time. Think my poor ol body is trying to get itself sorted after 10 years of pill-popping! the contraceptive kind of pills not the have a have a rave kind

So I'm off the fab bus! Kat can you reserve me a seat for the March bus please, cheers love!
