Symptom spotters, tww - ers, slightly hysterical hormone laden ladies! Regs, lurkers, intermittent posters! Our raison d'etre is 'am I pregnant?'

Thread 11. Welcome one and all!
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.

Post your stats and add your dates. We have a register thanks to kats stats I have been dubbed the resident piss stick queen and if you don't test, you get a Starky's Star 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

jem head is a bit delicate today, but I'm embarrassed to say I'm usually a heavy drinker anyway but I've cut back quite a lot over the last month, and had none in the tww.
So sorry to hear about your friend too Flowers

cel haha, all you can do. I find my DH struggles to dtd any more than 4 days in a row.

LaraG13 · 20/02/2016 09:52

Woooo first!! This means you're on almost exactly the same trajectory as me and yvonne!! Congratulations! 💐 How many dpo?

firstgo1984 · 20/02/2016 09:52

Thank all. In shock!

firstgo1984 · 20/02/2016 09:53

lara 13dpo i think

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 20/02/2016 09:56

first can you remind us what your symptoms were please? :)

firstgo1984 · 20/02/2016 09:59

zazzles none! But my usual pre-AF sore boobs and cramos are not here.
I had some mild cramps on 8 and 9dpo which i now think were implantation.

celizabe · 20/02/2016 10:05

zazz isn't it hilarious, I'm sure if you were to say to any bloke "honey bunch, how about we do nothing but have sex for a whole 2 weeks?" they'd jump at the chance, but actually coming to putting the plan into action, and it's a "not tonight babe, I'm K-O'D" GrinGrinGrin

SuchaJem · 20/02/2016 10:06

zazz that sounds exactly like me. I love my wine. If nothing else ttc has had the positive effect of making me drink a lot less!

KatOnATinRo0f · 20/02/2016 10:07

Yay!!!! Go first!!!!!! CongratsThanksThanks

Zazzles I am CD13 in the midst of ISW. OPKs attached for confirmation. Dtd mon, tues, yest, (and if my plan to seduce DH goes correctly...every day for the next week. Blusher applied Blush)

Feefeefs · 20/02/2016 10:33

Congratulations First!!

Kathrino · 20/02/2016 11:04

Congrats first, that's such brilliant news.

Happy weekend all!

Feefeefs · 20/02/2016 11:36

Poor zazzles two paracetamol and get thee to the couch Smile

firstgo1984 · 20/02/2016 11:48

Thank you all! My test was a 25miu as well so not even a super sensitive one!

Moggysinger · 20/02/2016 11:49

Congrats first!!!! Flowers wishing you a happy healthy 8 and a bit months!

zazzles I'm sure I used to drink too much as well. It's so easy to let it creep into a routine as a way to 'relax'

I did dry January, only lasted 2 weeks because of a big night out in the middle of Jan, but doing it again now for lent. Lots of hot choc in the evenings instead of glass of vino keeps my hands occupied! I sound like a right alcoholic

firstgo1984 · 20/02/2016 11:59

I was on the vino and port last nighg. Opps! Time to stop!

RaeSkywalker · 20/02/2016 12:18

Congrats first Smile

SpaceDinosaur · 20/02/2016 12:35

Congrats first!

StarkyTheDirewolf · 20/02/2016 12:36

Congrats first lovely news! 😀🍼🎉👑💐👍

Just had a look at that sperm meets egg plan, and realised that's basically what me and Dh did last month. Relaxing more this cycle now. Every other day dtd, that's the plan (which is fairly standard for us). May or may not do opk's. Unlikely to happen next few cycles anyway so may aswell chill out about it! Although muscle man has an injury so may not actually compete, he's not decided yet so is still training/eating like he will.

Congrats *first x

Congrats First! Thanks

Mileymoocow · 20/02/2016 13:40

planet first bowl came back up, second bowl has stayed down so far! I'm feeling a little better today but have promised myself no movement that isn't necessary and plenty of sleep.

In the nicest way possible, I can't wait til you're all suffering the dreaded morning sickness ❤

Congratulations first how exciting!!! Pop over to the grads thread when you're ready Flowers

Lesbecky · 20/02/2016 13:53

Congrats first! I needed to see that. Holding out at 10 dpo and struggling not to test. Seeing a bfp is keeping me on track.

StarkyTheDirewolf · 20/02/2016 13:57

Aww miley I know what you mean, I'd love us all to be suffering too! Grin Definitely look after yourself and be as sedentary as possible!

I've decided I'm going to enjoy the next few weeks, stressing and worrying and wondering will do me no good. If the last three months are anything to go off anyway. Approaching the end of af has put me in a good mood! And a contemplative one!
