Hugh enjoys ISW and his love affair with Doreen. He watches out for skittle tits and weepyitis. Mrs Arseholey Fucknut (Af) shows up when you least want her but brings wine and soft cheese as a consolation prize.

We don't have rules as such but expect to be talked down from the ledge with kind and well meaning but firm words if you get too hysterical. But most importantly don't convince yourself you're pregnant in the tww That is paramount!

We don't get a lot of baby dust in these here parts. We want a fanny full of determined Doreen, not unicorn farts and gnome tears with extra sparkle. We've been going a while now so the novelty has somewhat worn off and we're slightly battle scarred and bruised in the cervix area.

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

When you post stats, add your predicted test/af date. We are currently running at about 49% pregnant with the grads thread over in ante-natal which we all hope to join soon.

Snow that house looks amazing!!

I am eating exceptionally nice knockers today in the hope that Sod's law will kick in and AF will arrive...

RaeSkywalker · 10/03/2016 12:43

/takes bow
We have really given the DTD a damn good do. And SMEP says keep going for three days after your +OPK. So the show ain't over yet.

Snow that house is amazing! Yellow school busses

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 13:50

Aww thanks jem I've got a few ideas to write up but I apologise in advance if it's not as funny as you all thought!

In other news, I had a bottle of cider last night from aldi, 4% strawberry and lime pear flavour. It was lovely! Woke up this morning and my tongue is seriously painful! Feels like I've been licking a cactus! Asked my dad why and he just went "sulphites!" So I've done some googling and years of morning after the night out pain has just made sense!

Starky, that's amazing!

I haven't been on here in a while (struggling not to be hugging the toilet bowl all the time), and in fact don't think I've even checked into this thread yet.

Anyway, was going to quickly comment to say you should definitely do a blog, and then, hey presto, you've suddenly gone and done it! Very impressed!

I have also subscribed, and can't wait to see what else you do. I'd also recommend checking out Pregnant Chicken (www.pregnantchicken.com/) for inspiration. It's quite fresh, tongue-in-cheek in style, and has that mother-to-god honesty like you find on the MN TTC threads.

Hope it goes well! x

So yesterday at lunch I had to abandon a Stilton and bacon sandwich because I totally went off the taste of the Stilton and today I couldn't finish a scotch egg (with a really delicious runny egg in the middle) because of the egg taste. Trying desperately not to symptom spot as I refuse to believe I could actually be upduffed, but this is most odd for me. I also have very tender tits and sore nipples, but sore nips seems to be a normal pre af symptom for me as I get it every month.

ipatches I'm sorry AF has turned up Flowers, at least though you are now out of the dreaded limbo land you were in for a few days. Have lots of Wine and Chocolate and pates and soft cheese!

Well done on all the banging sucha! Let's hope Hugh has let Doreen through and that aggy has plopped!

Pugmummy87 · 10/03/2016 14:12

I meant eggy of course. Clearly my post night shift brain cannot type accurately!

SuchaJem · 10/03/2016 14:30

Aggy! Yes!

That's quite promising pug. Although shame you couldn't enjoy your scotch egg. I bloody love a scotch egg.

starky you are bloody hilarious I look forward to more :)

Pugmummy87 · 10/03/2016 14:40

Hugh, Doreen and Aggy! I love that autocorrect has inadvertently given us pet names for our reproduction cells/organs!

I was gutted about my scotch egg too. They come from our local butcher and are delicious and have the nice soft/runny egg yolks.

Starky loving the blog! How do I subscribe? Do I have to sign up?

Canters15 · 10/03/2016 14:45

Love the blog!!

Feefeefs · 10/03/2016 15:03

Sorry ipatches  hate those random long cycles.

Starky love "if you can't be nice be vague!" I do this A LOT.

Sucha good timing for your positive! I love that your zebra looks shocked!

Rae thought you were boasting, expecting lot nice knockers! I'm sure they are!

FXSkip · 10/03/2016 15:38

LOL STARKY you're awesome.

Confusedcat1 · 10/03/2016 17:13

Congrats starky on entering blog land!

jem you've given this month a bloody good shot! Fx for your bfp! And if not you know you did everything you could Grin

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 17:20

Haha thanks guys! And super sorry if anyone just got a million emails telling them I've put another entry up, there was a mild scuffle involving me and my laptop being a cock! I leant on a button and it did opened about 15 pages going "we've updated your followers""we've updated your followers""we've updated your followers""we've updated your followers""we've updated your followers" I was like "nooooo! Laptop! Why?!"

starky I just got the one update.

bluebird3 · 10/03/2016 18:11

Oh Target! I miss Target so much. I'm American but have been living in the UK for a few years. Hope you're enjoying it snow. Go to the Cheesecake Factory for me. Smile

Mileymoocow · 10/03/2016 18:15

Laughing so hard at the great photo album hunt and Brian harveys love child. Your blog is my new favourite thing! You really do have a way with words

Ni4444 · 10/03/2016 18:22

Hi Snow!! So excited and jealous about your new adventure! Ooh dunkin donuts... Or is it Krispy Kremes? Which are the best ones? I can't remember!! Need to book another trip stateside clearly!!

Two more days of hols in France...the walking, the food, and the relaxing has been good for ttc ...but I'm sure the vino isn't ideal...but fck that!! There will be plenty time to be a teetotaller!! Sat on a beach in the sun this afternoon...bliss!!! 😎

Stark popping over to your blog now!

Jem high five!! Good dtd work! 👍 I must remember to keep dtd 3 days after pos opk...I get so bored of it by then!

Confusedcat1 · 10/03/2016 19:11

Does anyone know if it's possible to ovulate twice in one month? I had a very positive opk on cd13, presumed ov on cd14. Then it started getting lighter. Now it's getting darker again.

RaeSkywalker · 10/03/2016 19:17

Excellent work Starky

Agreed about how hard it is to make a human! Angry nobody tells you that do they!

SuchaJem · 10/03/2016 19:20

feef I'd never noticed how intense that zebra was before. He takes opks v seriously!

Thanks confused that's exactly I feel. We've given it a good shot. The rest is up to Aggy and Hugh. Not sure about second lh surge, have you tried dr Google?

starky potching sounds so frustrating! Slightly different problem but does anyone find their oh can't find stuff and can't look properly? I'm like "it's in the cupboard babe" and it'll be right in front of his face and he won't see it. LOOK MAN

ni I found after DTD for the 6th time in about 8 days that fandango feels bruised?! and my hips kind of hurt from being in that position. I am battle weary people and I've got three more days 😳

StarkyTheDirewolf · 10/03/2016 19:22

It is congused it usually happens within a day/couple of days of each other. It's called superfecundation. Not to be confused with hyperovulation which is when you release two eggs at the same time (which can result in fraternal twins). Take some pics?

Awww thanks you guys! Blush Grin
