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.

Hug confused Flowers

Hello feef how are you getting on?

Hehe at your health visitor chat ever :) "yep I'm pregnant for two weeks every month in fact"

StarkyTheDirewolf · 19/03/2016 19:54

I'm sorry, I'm being absolutely rubbish today! I'm not being helpful or supportive and I feel terrible! I can't concentrate at all.

But I am mentally doing positive things for you all in my brain!

I can't change ovia fertility to pregnancy because im scared I'll jinx this now. And the minute I accept it, it will fall out, this is infinitely worse than the tww you guys!

Aw congratulations starky so amazingly awesome :D

Jamjar12 · 19/03/2016 20:04

Starky, the response from Ovia when you change it is the most anticlimactic sentence ever! After all the enthusiasm and fake positivity she gives all the way through TTC, I expected some sort of fanfare/parade... Nope. Kind of made me laugh!

Pugmummy87 · 19/03/2016 20:33

No need to apologise starky , I can only imagine what a whirlwind of emotions you must be feeling at the moment.

I'm going to repeat Kwick's positive fertility mantra every day this cycle.
Downloaded couch to 5K app.
Fridge full of healthy food.
So currently stuffing my face with chocolate to get rid of it and start afresh tomorrow.

Evergreen15 · 19/03/2016 21:35

Kwick I just came back from hospital. Doctor said I have a "proper fever" and probably chest infection and has given me amoxicillin. I just took my temperature and it is still going up.
Jem maybe I should have explain the Schrodinger pregnancy to her.
Pug I love couch to 5k Smile
I feel like crap and that if an egg found a little swimmer this month I probably cooked them with my high temperatures

Ni4444 · 19/03/2016 22:58

Ni4444 · 19/03/2016 23:02

I've missed a bit the last few days but love to all.

Kwick good to hear from you! You still injecting?

Ever sorry you're feeling so poorly Flowers
And Pug youve been waiting so long...I am crossing all my fingers and toes for you!

I'm CD15. O day should be CD18/19 but only just started checking opk and temp today so may have missed it-hope not! Just trying to chill too and reignite some passion with the OH just for the enjoyment of it with the potential of a bean quite welcome too of course!

Feefeefs · 20/03/2016 01:55

Hi sucha having a wonderful holiday and ISWGrinBlush back to earth tomorrow! For TWW otherwise know as SP (Schrödinger's pregnancy).

How are you?

Confusedcat1 · 20/03/2016 07:25

Aunt fuckface got me, so I need a new ticket please kat and will test on 16th March. Looks like I'm on a 26 day cycle regularly. Is that a bad thing?

Evergreen15 · 20/03/2016 07:44

Bah bah baaaaaaaah
My fever has gone up and I am sooooo bored of being in bed Angry that I went and poas
Not even an opk
Bah
Why? Dunno. 9dpo and FRER came out BFN.I didnt want to test until AF due in two days, but I am going nuts with the fever Envy
No starky Star for me and an expensive FRER test wasted Envy
Confused sorry AF got you. I might join you in a couple of days. My cycles are getting shorter as well Confused

Kwick709 · 20/03/2016 08:13

ever keep warm, drink plenty of fluids and watch copious amounts of tv Flowers

ni yes I am still stabbing myself daily - one in the bum area, one on tummy. I am black and blue.

starky when you said no symptoms except smell - did you mean your dh's sense of smell? Grin

Kwick709 · 20/03/2016 08:15

confused I think it is good if you have shorter cycles - less time to wait for chukka-chukka time :)

KatOnATinRo0f · 20/03/2016 08:41

Lol at imagining trying to explain our SP to a random non-believer!!

Hope you're feeling better soon ever!

I am back to uk later this evening around 11pm and straight to bed I think, as work on Monday. I unfortunately have let the poor bus register lapse so I will need some help to get it up and running again but may not get a chance to do that until Wednesday.... I haven't kept up to date with people's dates as I haven't read everything (not everywhere has wifi here... What is wrong with this country!!!) so may need to get new dads from lots of you!!

Flashinthepan · 20/03/2016 09:28

Morning! starky congrats that's amazing! I missed so much in one day! really wanted you to test because I love seeing people's bfp pics.

I think I am 2 or 3 dpo despite clue predicting I'd ov yesterday this month. But I'm only basing this on cm so could be way out. DH said on some ways he'd rather I wasn't upduffed this month because whilst he would be excited it doesn't feel real yet and he wants some more time to get used to the idea. So 2ww suddenly feels less pressure either way.

Confusedcat1 · 20/03/2016 10:09

Get well soon everFlowersCakeWine

SuchaJem · 20/03/2016 10:41

Glad you've had a lovely hol feef. Hope the holiday isw is fruitful for you! I'm alright apart from house dilemma and PMS...

Sorry AF got you confused I'm pretty sure I'm about to come on too.

Got all the classic pre AF signs over here so feel like I'm just waiting for her to arrive. Feel slightly less able to cope this month with this house situation hanging over us :(

Mileymoocow · 20/03/2016 10:56

starky I didn't like to say, but I had a feeling for you (and kwick 😉) this month!!!!! Big fucking fat congratulations to you!!! And all other BFP's I've missed. Got home from dubai yesterday and vomited a total of 10 times on the plane. I'm still trying to catch up really. Hope everyone is ok Smile

iPatches · 20/03/2016 11:02

Miley - firstly, ew for so much plane vomit, but how was Dubai?

Jem - sorry to hear you are feeling like AF is on her way. Get a bottle of wine in the fridge for the second she shows up - and keep hoping she won't, you're not out until you're out!

I had a VERY positive OPK with FMU this morning. Only on CD12, isn't that a bit early?

LovelyFishy · 20/03/2016 11:23

Congratulations Starky!

I caved and tested today, 12 dpo and bfn. Sad I really thought I had it this month, quite upset and grumpy today. Not even a whisper of a second line.

Ni4444 · 20/03/2016 11:24

No such thing as too early or too late iP. Hugh is an unreliable, moody bastard who will do what he wants, when he wants cant help but think about Hugh Grant in Notting Hill every time we talk about Hugh!

Kwick709 · 20/03/2016 11:55

That is such a nice thing to say miley sorry the vom was coming out on the plane.... I have been stockpiling plane sick bags fir such an event since I decided last Easter to TTC.

lovelyfishy 12dpo maybe too early to detect HCG - when is af due? Remember: yiu are not out until you are out!

Mileymoocow · 20/03/2016 12:08

kwick Wilkinsons dog poo bags are my advice!

ipatches I ov'd on cd12, I had a 26 day cycle Smile

fishy 12dpo is still early, mine was incredibly faint at 12dpo to the point where I didn't even realise it was positive unless I squinted for my life. You're not out

iPatches · 20/03/2016 12:19

Miley - ooh so that's good. My cycle has been all over the place the last couple of months. I've got everything crossed for this cycle.

LovelyFishy · 20/03/2016 12:25

AF due Tuesday. Not even with my best wishing and squinting was there even a glimmer of a second line. I think I'd better book my bus ticket just in case. Sad But hey! Maybe I'll have a glass of wine with dinner to make up for it. Grin
