The one where we all get and stay diffed, and we're brooking no argument about it

Yeah new thread

My 'bumpie' 15+5
Saw a friend last night this 38 weeks, lordy they get big don't they...

trix crossing all for you

I know its not a bump but it's a bit vit thicker all down...

Ooooh Keep you have a lovely shape!!! And your bump is already starting under your boobs, whereas mine just sticks out at the tummy at the moment. Maybe it is just flab after all

I tried to take a bumpie, but it was't very good, I'll try again later!

trix surely its still far too early to be anything bad AF isn't going to come at 7/8dpo

I don't know. It did look like the start of af this morning. Feeling a bit upset and stressed about it all tbh.

Oh Trix please don't be stressed about it - it would seem unlikely that it's AF. The waiting/not knowing what's going on is very hard. Here, gave a Ferrero Rocher and a hug.

Aw Trixie maybe if nothing this cycle you could get a progesterone test to check you are ovulating. This is cycle, what, 5?

6 keep
Think I might make an appointment and see what we can do.

Thanks imps

Just been to the loo and nothing!
Is it even possible for af to come like a week after ovulation?

Are progesterone checks best to do 7 days before AF? If so, that's today isn't it Trix? Could you get an appt today?

trix I'm still brooking its implantation. Do you normally get spotting Before AF? It might be nothing, but I wouldn't give up hope yet

It usually starts as spotting. I think this would be my shortest ever cycle if this is af though!
Will test Sunday if proper flo hasn't arrived.
Just getting ready to take N to toddler group be back later.

Brown blood in pants now (tmi) and a bit more on wiping.

you were using ov sticks weren't you trix? It still seems very unlikely that AF would come this early, Though my body has done some completely random thing over the last few years so its probably not impossible! Still brooking its implantation though!

Hmmmm Trix. How strange. Although actually I recall that I had something similar in September last year - brown gunge daily from around 7 or 8 DPO until AF arrived, bang on time on 12 DPO. No idea what caused it, but it didn't mean that there was anything amiss with my cycles as all was normal the following month.

I think Keep's suggestion of a progesterone test is a good one, esp if this turns into AF.

Chin up lovely, hope you're okay.

I will be I'm just feeling sorry for my self today!

Nothing wrong with that

I was all psyched up to tell my boss today but he's just emailed to say that he won't be in until Thursday.

Oh imps how annoying!

I'm all snuggled with a sleeping N I feel very privileged.

Aaaahhhhh lovely, hope lovely snuggles have lifted your mood.

Yes, I was all geared up to tell someone but now it will have to wait! Although maybe Thursday will be better as if there's something wrong with my combined test bloods I may have had a call by then.

I feel loads better after a rest and a snuggle with N .

trix that's all very odd and must be so frustrating for you. I'm glad cuddles with N have helped.

keep somehow with all the work blocking webpages malarkey I totally missed you having a flutter!!! Oh lovely, that's fantastic!

keep and imps all these bumpies are so lovely to look at. When you're ready, beedle

grrr @ your boss imps, that is so inconsiderate of him/her. Do they not realise what a big deal planning to tell work is? I'm sorry you're not looking forward to telling your family, maybe break yourself in gently with a few well chosen announcements to close friends who you know will be happy for you.

I've just put in a request for another private script for clexane - hope this will be more successful than the intralipids request! I have officially stopped testing now, as I'm obsessing over line darkness. I have mild nausea, a massive aversion to coffee (wtf? you're killing me here!) and sore boobs, and that will just have to get me through to scan day.

PS my bum bullet farts have now officially cleared a room

Loooooool to bum bullet farts. They're something else aren't they?!? I had my last bum bullet yesterday so hopefully those particular side effects will be gone.

Are you about 5 and a half weeks Geek? My nausea and sickness started then so I'm delighted you're feeling ill!! Ohhhhhh am brooking so hard - you deserve this so much.

I am sure my family will be pleased but I have a fairly strange relationship with them which makes me feel quite distant from them even though we're not, if that makes sense They think I'm really quite incapable at practical stuff and so I'm not looking forward to all of the jokes/comments about me being an incompetent mother, which i know I'll get. And my mum has essentially taken over the upbringing of my niece and nephew - honestly, it's way beyond interfering and is actually very destructive of my sister and BIL's family unit. I'm not looking forward to her doing the same with me and Mr Imps, and the inevitable arguments that will happen when we reject that.

Oh well, will just have to deal with it all as and when it happens.

Don't know why I put farts in bold

trix how are you today? I'm glad snuggles with N helped yesterday.

geek so pleased things are still ok with you. I Think the last test I did was around 5 weeks with a CB digital and got the 3+. My mum was telling me she Went off coffee when she was pregnant, its not a problem for me as I never drink the disgusting stuff! Have you booked a scan or were you waiting till the end of the week?

imps sounds tough, remember "no, that doesn't work for me/us" when they try to take over. I'm sure you'll be a great mum.

I tried to take a bumpie, but I'm rubbish at taking selfies - so glad I'm not 20 yrs old. I will try again tomorrow evening.

Funny you say that geek I'm a bit off tea... V odd for me

imps yes, just being firm will have to be the way. You'll both be great. Have you told any friends yet?

I keep feeling extra heartbeats when in bed. Google says it's v common but I'll see what the MW thinks on Friday

Have a good day everyone!
