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 10, 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?

Tomorrow Lisa! It's been in my calendar for months. I love me some pancakes.

Planeteer · 08/02/2016 20:22

It's tomorrow Lisa! Go forth and buy pancake ingredients AT ONCE!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 08/02/2016 20:23

lisa shrove tuesday or pancake day, is TOMORROW! Grin hurrah! I'll be having pancakes with syrup...Dh will have chicken, broccoli and sweet potato! He's hardcore into this diet now so the belinnis are also off the menu tonight as I'd have to drink the whole bottle myself!

Do not worry about drinking before the 2WW is over - I do not think it can make it through to baby.

Rather than give something up for lent I may add something - a few year ago I did a sun salute each morning during lent.

Starky I am a J - so imagine what happens when my boobage gets mahoosive!!!

I am really sorry the witch got you Kat - what a fucker!

Suchajem seriously babe get a larger container... wee soaked hands is not a good look!!!

I think FB is evil and I have stayed clear for months now (only having started using a year ago!).

I am suffering from rage and am in need of going on an anger management course... I was on a conference call earlier today and nearly flung the phone out of the window I was that mad!!!!

Also got a bit freaked out yesterday as suddenly realised that the start of second cycle - where egg collection and hopefully embryo transfer occurs - is not that long off and I am getting really nervous about injections....

LillianFullStop · 08/02/2016 20:33

Hi all just checking in - I don't quite have weepy-tits (😂) but I've got angry-tits. Quite normal for me pre-AF. DH and I call it 'raging' where everything and everyone makes me annoyed and angry. Had an absolute crappy day at work too kat. And sorry about the indirect babybomb - I had an indirect one late last year which is possibly crappier than a direct one - DH's ex announced baby #2 - now that's a babybomb to rival all babybombs! no pressure Lillian!

LisaTheGreek · 08/02/2016 20:35

Thanks Kathrino, Planeteer and Stark!

I have flour and milk. Just need eggs and filling. I still use the old recipe you learn at uni - cup of milk, cup of flour, two eggs Grin

Classic lemon and sugar for me, every time

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 08/02/2016 20:42

Really sorry kat Flowers

Moggysinger · 08/02/2016 20:43

So glad to see I'm not the only one with weepytits today! misery loves company!
Going back to work after a lovely few days off is never nice. Then I was baby bombed by a colleague but I am genuinely chuffed for her as shes lovely and they were trying for ages so its a much wanted baby.
Now I have some sad news about my 2 month old niece being poorly with a congenital condition and I just want to cry. This baby making thing is a total rollercoaster not even the ttc thing but all the health stuff that comes along with new babes too Sad

Harriet we're almost cycle buddies! I'm going to cave before you though and test on 3 March!

Kwick709 · 08/02/2016 20:43

Lisa your uni sounds a whole lot better than mine - thanks for recipe - will try tomorrow!

Kwick709 · 08/02/2016 20:44

moggy very sorry to hear about your niece... So sad :(

Kathrino · 08/02/2016 21:24

Oh moggy, your poor baby niece ThanksThanksThanks

Mileymoocow · 08/02/2016 21:30

I read weepy tits too. And now it's a total thing for me!!

Sorry to hear about your niece moggy Sad hope all is ok.

I'm also sorry everyone is feeling shit. Just been shopping and almost sharted explosive bowels and terrible gas does not make for a good combination

I'm having pancakes and everything tomorrow. And starky go drink that prosecco for me please, will you. Could just use a bellini tho I definitely would do a shit fart if alcohol was involved

Feefeefs · 08/02/2016 21:31

So sorry to hear about your niece moggy.

I like your idea kwick sun salutation each morning!

Found out today a colleague is also trying and it kind cheered me up, just the honesty of it.

Ni4444 · 08/02/2016 21:43

Woo!! I am up to date again!! Hi again all waves... Feels I've been gone for ages!

Kwick I love that idea! The living room is bigger in the new place and morning sun beams in so I was thinking of starting my morning exercises again! I've been getting unfit and less toned while "minding myself" ttc..which hasn't got me upduffed anyway! So this month I'm taking EPO (thanks to whoever talked about earlier in this thread.. just popped it into amazon basket!), gonna use pre-seed properly again, and I am gonna get back exercising!!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 08/02/2016 21:45

Oh moggy your poor niece Flowers

Ive not had my prosecco, I feel sick now and am sooo bloated I'd give a blimp a run for its money! And I can't stop burping!

Aww miley shit mate literally can you take pepto bismol? That puts a stopper in the bum hole for a while poo-wise. I've got both trapped and escaping gas.

Werpy tits?! Fucking Werpy! ? Weepy. ...good god. Heaven forbid we get Werpy tits as well weepy tits and weepy-itis!

Pugmummy87 · 08/02/2016 22:34

I also got weepy tots queuing in the Co Op today because a Rod Stewart song came on and my step dad loved Rod. Trying to hold back tears as you are paying for your shopping is hard.

My team are having a bring a plate Italian night Wednesday and there will be prosecco. I'm on annual leave this week, so it would be rude not to surely. I could potentially be 12dpo wed.

Pugmummy87 · 08/02/2016 22:35

Weepy tits! Not weepy tots. Grin

Feefeefs · 08/02/2016 22:36

I'm literally envious of your sharting miley I have not pooed properly for 2 weeks and at all for a week despite 3 days of laxatives. It is now so bad that I'm jealous of someone having diarrhoea BlushConfused

FX for tomorrow! This is on the account of painkillers by the way normally regular as clockwork.

I think I may have just won the TMI prize!!

ElleSarcasmo · 08/02/2016 22:43

Weepy tots Pug?! lol!

No weepies here. Just grumpies. Think I must have missed ovulation (?) as OPK lighter today than yesterday though cocked up not doing it on Saturday so who knows.

Jem what happened to your Gu ramekin? I tried some disposable drinks cups (bought for stealth work testing) and they were good as they have better capacity.

Thanks Holly, I will have a look.

I'm thinking cheese and ham tomorrow, I like a savoury pancake but sense I'm in the minority!

ElleSarcasmo · 08/02/2016 22:47

Sorry about your niece Moggy, hope the tests come back ok Flowers

Sorry AF got you Kat and about the baby bomb Flowers

I have put on weight too [Pug]. I put a smart jacket on that I bought in the sale but hadn't worn yet. DH said it looked small Sad it does, I can hardly do the buttons up I'm going to cut out crap for lent and run at least twice a week.

ElleSarcasmo · 08/02/2016 22:48

Oops meant Pugmummy

ElleSarcasmo · 08/02/2016 22:50

Feefs are you on codeine? It is a bastard for constipation. Are you drinking lots of water? Dried apricots/prunes maybe? Hope you get some relief tomorrow!

Evergreen15 · 08/02/2016 22:51

Hi!!!
I can't catch up so I will start here! Hello thread 10!!!
I hope I haven't missed anything major. I shall wait for kat's list for any new BFP
Grin

ElleSarcasmo · 08/02/2016 22:52

Sorry just re-read Moggy and realised your niece already has results, so sorry Sad
