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.

Because the tww is in dog years pug only plausible explanation. I'm somewhere between 9-11 dpo. Reckon I've probably got a few more days before af shows up.

Why do spots on my back only appear in places where I can't reach them?! It's unbelievably frustrating!

Starky
I used to have no back spots... After birth control they appeared! Now DH finds them and picks at them

HepKestrel · 15/03/2016 05:52

HepKestrel · 15/03/2016 06:06

Congratulations rae! I see 2 lines!

RaeSkywalker · 15/03/2016 06:09

Ahhh! I don't quite know what to do with myself! I also don't quite know whether to trust the brand of test!

Cailler · 15/03/2016 06:13

Congratulations Rae that's a second line! Definitely not going crazy

HepKestrel · 15/03/2016 06:27

Its interesting that its so faint. But its still a clear positive!! Explains why you had bfns before

RaeSkywalker · 15/03/2016 06:37

I think it's weird that it's so faint too- I'm 10 days late! DH wants me to see a dr today because of the cramps. he also wouldn't let me use another test- says I need to save it for tomorrow!

Pugmummy87 · 15/03/2016 06:44

Definitely see a second line there rae !

HepKestrel · 15/03/2016 06:46

Some women naturally have less hcg in their urine.

Evergreen15 · 15/03/2016 07:10

Evergreen15 · 15/03/2016 07:11

Canters15 · 15/03/2016 07:23

Congrats Rae!! Fab news. Cramps are totally normally btw, I had some yesterday that made me double over... It's just the uterus stretching.

RaeSkywalker · 15/03/2016 07:38

Kwick709 · 15/03/2016 08:06

starky I just read your latest installment - really ace :)

Confusedcat1 · 15/03/2016 08:17

Congrats rae that's two more of our little bunch that we can bundle off to the grads! Grin

RaeSkywalker · 15/03/2016 08:28

Thank you!

Kwick you laugh, but one of DH's favourite names is Wren. I haven't reminded him that it's a character yet (albeit spelled differently) Might choose to withhold that information Grin

HepKestrel · 15/03/2016 08:34

So i'm feeling good, even though AF is here.

Had a look at my calendar, even though I ovulated early, AF was bang on schedule, so it looks like i had one errant cycle.

FW looks like it will coincide nicely with the easter break, so pretty good access to Doreen. Grin

I will opk again this month as I am still learning my cycle. The geek in me is curious to know if I always ovulate early ? Hmm

The other observation I have for the post-cycle-review, is that my experiment in taking EPO correlated with a month where I observed no EWCM??

Kat - when you catch up, put me down for the 14th April!

Ni4444 · 15/03/2016 08:41

Lovely news to wake up to Rae! Congratulations to you! Flowers

Welcome back Ever! Glad you had a fabulous time!! I'm trying to decide where to book my next holiday!!

ElleSarcasmo · 15/03/2016 08:50

Congratulations Rae! Lovely news! Flowers I've always liked Leia for a girl Wink. Wren is a lovely name!

Ever glad you had a nice break. Hopefully some good Doreens ended up in the right place!

Kat how is your break going? Hope you are managing some sneaky action!

ElleSarcasmo · 15/03/2016 08:53

Sorry about AF Hep.

Love hearing about your cats...I really want one! We are moving soon so hopefully we can get a fur baby too.

I have been really crap this month...keep forgetting to do my temps, never caught a peak OPK, could have dtd a lot more...hope I haven't ruined my chances Sad
