(Maybe is better use a digital test or he will just say "what do the two lines mean?" Grin

LimpLettice · 05/07/2017 13:12

Oooh EMHW that sounds very promising indeed. Fingers crossed and don't forget to tell us!

Breast tenderness already but I had that last month, although last month possible CP. I believe it is a good sign of progesterone rising at the least. This morning I have had a tonne of yellowy cm, which is a new one on me but probably far too early be anything. Off to visit new baby this afternoon so I shall mumble fertility friendly rubbish at her and hope some of her baby magic rubs off and starts implantation. And this is why I keep calling myself crazy :)

LimpLettice · 05/07/2017 13:13

If a BFP ever turns up, I shall send DP that gif of Tom Hardy winking, and BOOM, the girl is pregnant. S'funny, he'll like it.

EMHW123 · 05/07/2017 13:54

😂😂 limp that's hilarious!! Lovely afternoon for you!

Yay mctufty that's exactly why I bought a digital!! Confirm with frer, see it in black and white for him!

I've actually got a wee baby grow of his fav team it's actually ugly as fucj but he will appreciate it! Going to put it in a box as a pretend random gift.... I get excited just thinking about that part! 😂

I'm feeling a bit weird if I'm honest. It's probably all my head but I'm a bit hot and bothered and felt off this morning. Nothing massive but just feeling a bit weird.

If I'm honest I'm just over the moon I've not started to spot yet! Last month was devastating for that reason only!

Cherylttcagain · 05/07/2017 14:19

Aww emhw that does sound positive! Let's hope you're our first BFP :D

Limp that's interesting, always good to feel something a bit different, fingers crossed!

I'm so boring but I'll just show him the test. He hates surprises and I won't be able to keep it from him that I'm testing.

I'm starting to stress a bit, my app tells me I'm still in my fertile window but hubby has been run off his feet and we didn't dtd on mon/tues. I'm going to have to pester him loads tonight! Argh!

EMHW123 · 05/07/2017 17:54

Ha Cheryl my other half would probably prefer that too. He's less ott than me! Ha!

I find trying to have enough sex is the hardest part about this actively ttc. I'm not 20 and shagging a like a rabbit anymore and neither is my other half that's for sure! It's also 31 degrees again! 😎🔥😑 I've attached the frer pic from yesterday think there is a squinter or I'm going crazy, which is completely possible.

I can't tell if that's evap but I very definitely see a line EMWH. Everything crossed.

Lovely lovely afternoon watching DD cuddle newborn and feeling pangs of weirdness about wanting to give her a sibling as much as being broody. D friend is as crazy as me and insisted I get extra cuddles for ttc luck. She's been there too! Grin

McTufty · 05/07/2017 21:23

Oh I don't know emhw, there's a line and I didn't think pink ones got them really but I'm no expert! FX! Great that you haven't been spotting...

limplettuce on another thread one poster's friend dreamed her pregnancy and then she was pregnant so anything is possible Grin I'm sure her babyness will have rubbed off onto you!

I've had a lot of cm today that might be EWCM, stretches but doesn't come apart easily between my thumb and finger if that makes sense. Cervix also feels a bit more open. Anyway I'm not chancing it I'm going to try to persuade me exhausted DH to service me!!

EMHW123 · 05/07/2017 21:54

That sounds like a blissful afternoon!

Go for it mctufty! We were going to but im knackered and a bit moody, feels like pms.

Convinced that smudge was an Evap now.

Onwards and upwards! Woop! 🙌

EMHW123 · 06/07/2017 07:44

Aunt Flo here, approx 2 days early.

Ironically just noticed after I had peed on a frer this morning! Like pissing on a tenner. 😫

Good luck girls! I'm rooting for you all. X

LimpLettice · 06/07/2017 07:49

Oh EMHW that sucks arse. Although pissing on a tenner raised a smile. Hope you're yer not feeling too down.

EMHW123 · 06/07/2017 08:02

I'm feeling a bit shitty. I'll be fine though ☺️ i had plans this weekend with mum so can stick to them without worrying! Every cloud.

Contemplating intervention with Gp/ivf etc at xmas time as we will have been trying 15 months by then, 12 months properly.

Until then it's a waiting game. I just hate how it affects my mood so much the disappointment is horrendous. Oh and never break open a test! 😂🙈

Cherylttcagain · 06/07/2017 08:03

Good luck Mctufty, at least you're noticing your cp and cm changes and can hopefully catch that egg!! I'd try and persuade him to dtd again today just to make sure ;)

emhw, so sorry to hear that! And what a cowbag for AF to start and let you waste a test! I hope you have a lovely treat in mind for AF week.

McTufty · 06/07/2017 08:20

I'm so sorry emhw. You must be so fed up. You've been trying 6 months properly but sort of 9? You could go to your gp september if you've been sort of trying for a year by then, they won't know the difference! I'm sure you'll have your BFP by then anyway though Smile I hope you have a lovely weekend with your mother.

cheryl yes totally! Though it might come to nothing, still no OPK positive and I've been using twice a day. Might have missed it I suppose, or hopefully it's just round the corner!

McTufty · 06/07/2017 08:22

Anyone else's pre-ov bbt this erratic? Confused

AF here today! Sorry if TMI but had thrush the last week, think it may be post pill hormones?? Anyway thought it was better, DTD last night and it stung like hell! Anyone else experienced that?

KubaLeebre · 06/07/2017 11:28

Hmm, I'm officially crazy 🙄

We ain't the luckiest thread so far :)

I hope the weekend is cheering EMWH - I prescribe as much wine / vodka / gin as you fancy with your mum. Hope she is more cheering than mine.

No idea McTufty - that is why I don't chart as I would just be brain dead trying to interpret that.

Linz I havent been on the pill for aeons but it did cause thrush endlessly when I was. I have always suffered though - only thing that gets shot of it for me is long term fluconazole - as in a weekly dose for 6 weeks. And if it isn't totally gone, sex definitely sets it off, so I would abstain til you are confident it is gone. Salt baths help, and make sure you treat your partner as you will get it back.

LimpLettice · 06/07/2017 11:33

Why are you crazy Kuba?!

I had the fabulous experience yesterday of one of the non english speaking mums on the playground congratulating me on my visible pregnancy. Trying to explain and then mime that no, I am not, I am just fat, particularly during the lunacy of TTC / TWW - hmm, not fun. Feeling a bit depressed now. Boo.

LinzLinz · 06/07/2017 11:34

Thanks @LimpLettice I thought I was clear, sex is off the cards for now! So now I have that AND AF to deal with this week! It's great being a woman isn't it!

KubaLeebre · 06/07/2017 12:14

Oh, because I am imagining seeing lines 😂

LimpLettice · 06/07/2017 13:24

I dunno Kuba, If I really squint on my phone I think there might be something ghostly there. How many dpo?

KubaLeebre · 06/07/2017 13:34

Yeah, to be fair I think it's just not a great test

OP posts:
KubaLeebre · 06/07/2017 13:39

By that I mean I don't think it's positive!
