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

miley they're dicks some of these lads aren't they! Fucking horrific! Makes you wonder what they'd do if challenged by someone the same size!

pug I had an epic two day af, with just spots the last two days. Think I'm in the back end of it now! Roll on a new cycle!

I think it was starky who originally typo-d Hugh the cervix!

I am BORED tonight. Forced my self to do very little today as have been sick for like 2 weeks so trying to relax. Instead went into town and spent £££ and now having prosecco and planning a bath

Ni4444 · 20/02/2016 20:31

Bonus! I came home to find OH making dinner too!! He's best left alone for a while! Rather than me home nagging at him! Must remember that!

Stark you're beautiful. He was a nob. What a life he lost out on! Glad you're with someone who loves you and respects you X

Wine time!! Having one for all of you who can't enjoy some tonight!! 🍷

Homemade Lamb meatballs with couscous...tastier than it sounds! 😋

Feefeefs · 20/02/2016 20:48

Sounds lovely ni seems you should have "me time" more often!

It was indeed starky who was the "Hugh" orginator! Your ex sound awful starky I'm glad you've found a nicer fella

ElleSarcasmo · 20/02/2016 20:59

Congratulations First! How exciting! Flowers

ElleSarcasmo · 20/02/2016 21:03

Thanks Zazzles, no sign of it since spotting earlier. Definitely think the witch is imminent though!

Sorry about BFN Jem-but you're not out yet.

I too had an abusive ex Starky and Miley. It's nearly 20 years since I met him-I was only 16 Sad and still freak out at the thought of bumping into him today.

bluebird3 · 20/02/2016 21:10

Congrats first really great news!

Tmi alert...
Does anyone else get brown, sometimes stringy spotting the 2-3 days before af? Wondering if it's a sign somethings not right which might be stopping things.

LillianFullStop · 20/02/2016 21:17

congrats first!!

SuchaJem · 20/02/2016 22:00

I'd forgotten about Huw 😂

Pugmummy87 · 20/02/2016 22:39

Bluebird I get what you describe about 3 days before af. I don't think it's anything to be concerned about, just as the corpus luteum starts to die and therefore progesterone levels start to drop and so the lining of the uterus slowly starts breaking down before it all properly comes away when af comes.

Feefeefs · 20/02/2016 22:47

Bluebird I have had that once or twice most noticeably the first cycle off the pill. Not consistently every month tho

Confusedcat1 · 20/02/2016 23:25

Bluebird I had that the cycle before last. I was convinced it was implantation and then I got af:( turns out my periods aren't as regular as I thought they were

LaraG13 · 20/02/2016 23:40

bluebird I always gets the spotting you've described and just had BFP so I don't think it's anything to worry about - very normal.

Lyssie · 21/02/2016 00:52

Congrats first!!!!!! So excited for you :D

I adore you all... Seriously, I'm jut beaming after reading all your posts.

Lyssie · 21/02/2016 01:18

Trying not to symptom spot too much, but today my weepy-tits have subsided and I've felt nauseous all day!

celizabe · 21/02/2016 07:20

blue I had that for the first time this month, brown spotting Monday, then AF on Friday, never happened to me before though

Kwick709 · 21/02/2016 07:57

I am only on page 5 but just had to comment

snowdog what a lovely post and I 100% agree. I prob shouldn't even be on this post as I am doing ivf but you have all been so welcoming and I take great comfort from everyone's news 💜
Ok back to catching up

Mileymoocow · 21/02/2016 08:16

kwick why shouldn't you be on here? You're ttc just as much as everyone else. In fact, more! You don't have a love length available to you so surely it's harder for you lovely lady

Confusedcat1 · 21/02/2016 08:29

A love length
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

IrregularCommentary · 21/02/2016 08:33

Actually spat my tea out at love length Miley!! Totally calling it that from now on!

Love lengths aside, Kwick, I agree. Why on earth shouldn't you be here. Ttc is ttc x

Mooseville · 21/02/2016 08:53

LOL @ love length! Absolutely agreed that you should be here kwick You've more reason than me seen as my length ain't being very loving at the moment!

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 21/02/2016 09:13

😂 at love length!!

kwick of course you should be here! I have mild pcos so I should be on the pcos thread really but I just massively stalk that thread and Ivf threads anyway and post here Grin

ZazzlesTheCat2 · 21/02/2016 09:15

I hate this cycle already Angry I've been in agony all evening and night, I think my big cyst on my left ovary is rupturing again, and I'm having an epic heavy period - ouch Sad
