No need for testing for me confused - AF has turned up like the clockwork bitch she is! Even though I was expecting it I was a bit disappointed. Sounds positive for you though - fingers crossed!

On the plus side Wine for me tonight Grin
Onwards!

Mummyme87 · 16/02/2017 13:49

I'm feeling so much pain very low abdomens, bikini line area and twinges/aches in back and right hip area pleading for implantation

buzzmoon · 16/02/2017 14:38

Fingers crossed mummy!

Sorry orange lots of Wine for you!!

MrsC2017 · 16/02/2017 15:01

Hi girls, today has been absolutely crazy in work! I'm exhausted!
confused I hope things stay positive for you, I'm like red I suck at seeing lines!
grumpy I reckon you have got things covered!!
tigger that sounds so romantic!!!
mummy Fx it's implantation for you!
orange sorry about AF but enjoy the wine!!
I have actually been so busy today that I have no time to OPK or check cm so will do that now soon! I reckon I haven't ovd yet, didn't dtd last night, will do tonight and hope for the best!!

MrsC2017 · 16/02/2017 15:04

And I literally said that and went to the loo and forgot to OPK.... Frazzled isnt the word today !!

Redpony1 · 16/02/2017 15:57

Fingers crossed Mummy!

I had some CM earlier, not much but it was thickish and white, at least it's something to add to Ovia!

I've just read that you are supposed to cut out caffeine.... I don't drink coffee or eat much chocolate, but i am not giving up tea!! decaff tea is rank, but normal tea is my one pleasure! errgghhh

Grumpy glad you have stuff to keep you distracted!... the other day i asked DH how he would like to know and he said he would want a big surprise... we are really big NFL fans and the funny thing is i told him we were gonna make a superbowl baby and it looks like we might have done! Anyways i have ordered a baby jersey and teddy in our teams colours so i can put them in a bag with a digi test (if its a bfp) when the time comes Smile

Sorry for AF Orange Wine

Sounds good Mummy!!! i had 2 nights of shooting pain down the right side of my womb to my groin and then it was like someone had kicked men in my back for 2 days!... i am hoping for a sicky bean for you!!

Red I am finding cutting caffine really hard! I don't drink or smoke or anything but i do love at least 1 tea a day and the odd fizzy pop!!

Jupiter you are stuck with me for at least the next 9-10 months now! Lol... i'm really hoping that you had late implantation!!... your utility room/conservatory sounds like it is going to be lovely!

Same cannot do the no caffeine at the mo! I can't function without coffee! Will force myself when pregnant but at the mo I need it!!

buzzmoon · 16/02/2017 17:53

confused amazing idea! I think I want to get a baby grow in his football team, but then don't know if I'd be able to keep it a secret for even a second!

buzzmoon · 16/02/2017 17:57

Would I be mad to order it now in preparation? Just found the perfect one. I don't wanna jinx it!
