I'd never heard of Auntie Flo until I found mumsnet. I wonder if anyone actually has an Auntie Flo?

Okay, maybe I've got over my lurking phase...

Greenblock · 04/02/2007 19:04

sorry, that should have read "not so much"

goodness me, I can't type as fast as I can think.

Well at uni we used to call it "red mouse day".

"The Russians are invading" is fantastic.

some of these are funny (and some are foul)

I rather like

My cup of joy is overflowing (that'll go down well on the ttc threads!)

Actually my Mum always used to call it Auntie Flo, and now I think about it, she did have an Auntie Flo. Aunt Florrie. Hmm.

pmsl at 'flying the Japanese flag'!!

I have a snaking suspicion I'll be flying the flag soon . Have horrible pains - reminiscent of the troubles I had before and, rather scarily, if AF comes soon then I'm looking at a cycle of less than 23 days. Pants.

plummymummy · 04/02/2007 19:39

So pleased I inspired you Sorry about your m/c greenblock. Here's hoping for a bfp soon xx btw can someone develop a "fingers crossed" emoticon. It would be most useful.

Hello everyone - it has been a while since I last posted. I have just been trying to catch up with everyone's news.

I have some good news for the thread - i just got a BFP !!!!!!

Am very surprised because we didn't manage much of the old heave ho this month - only 2 times during the fertile week - so please don't give up those of you who have DP / DH's away during some of the crucial time. I held my friends newborn baby at every opportunity just in case there was any truth in the old wives tale! I started getting sore boobs 2 days ago and although AF isn't due until 8 Feb, I thought I'd test tonight as just got back from a weekend away... I didn't think it would show up as I used a cheapy test, it was a bit too early to test, and it is the end of the day rather than first wee of the morning, but sure enough it is quite a thick dark line!!!

I hope this gives all of you some lucky babydust this month. o~ o~

Congratulations Mrs Bee I'm really pleased for you and your DH. x
(I've got my net outcatching my share of babydust!)

JoAndTheBoys · 04/02/2007 20:21

Congratulations Mrs Beee!

What's your due date then?

Come on over to the due in Oct thread when you're ready!

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 20:33

Hi everyone!!!

Am back cos DP is out hunting down a pg test amongst our friends.

AF has vanished.

will let you know. xx

JoAndTheBoys · 04/02/2007 20:39

Ooh, Ammy, how exciting! Fingers crossed for you!

What's with the namechange??!!

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 20:39

Olivia is my daughter. x

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 20:43

I really dont know what going on.

BAD cramps all day Thursday and Friday (sent home from work on Friday). I never have them that bad but thought I was just in for a bad period.

Spotted friday night ever so slightly. Spotted chocolate milk shake yesterday- just enough to fill to the first line on mooncup, no red blood. Today, nothing.

My body is just taking the mick I think.

JoAndTheBoys · 04/02/2007 20:46

Hmm, sounds intriguing...

When do you think dp will be back???

HonorMatopoeia · 04/02/2007 20:46

Oooo Ammy, that reminds me of a tmi question I've been meaning to ask. . . .ahem. . . you know that brown 'chocolate milkshake' stuff that tends to come out before AF kicks in proper? Do you count that as the start of your cycle or wait till it arrives in full flow iyswim?

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 20:53

BFN. where has it gone???????

Sprogstersmum · 04/02/2007 20:54

Hello all, been lurking on this thread a while and thought I'd introduce myself. Ttc for no.2, DD is 18 months. No luck in Jan and Feb is looking doubtful as cycle all over the place for some reason, but here's hoping it all settles down soon and we can start hoping for a BFP soon!

JoAndTheBoys · 04/02/2007 20:58

What test was it?

HonorMatopoeia · 04/02/2007 20:59

sorry ammy

cazzybabs · 04/02/2007 21:08

Dh is away from tomorrow but back on Friday (just before I am due to ovulate (hopefully))! But evyerhting is in boxes as we are trying to sell our house and so have decluttered everything - so I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed!

Am being observed teaching tomorrow for the 1st time in years and am so scared! Oh please god let my children sit nicely on the carpet! Adn the worst thing is - I have to sit and talk to the person doing it on my own for 45 minutes on Thurs! - AHHHHHHHHHH.....

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 21:10

It was a boots own-they are same as clear blues arent they?

xx

ammylovesolivia · 04/02/2007 21:11

Dont be sorry- x

Kind of expected that. x

mum03 · 04/02/2007 22:04

Mrs Bee - congrats on your bfp.

Well we now have 5 pg already and it is only the start. Statistically speaking only 25% of us should get pg this month - well we have now reached that point, so less us beat the stats, Also last month there were only 9 or 10 pg, we still have to beat that target. who's next....
