[digitalgirl]

New 2ww thread, have brought over mince pies and mulled wine and put up some fairylights

Come in, take your heels off and get cosy!

Congrats to the BFP's!!!! How long have you both been ttc for??

I'm out this month I'm afraid AF is here. Have felt really upset and negative these past few days. Really need to pick my self up and sort myself out

congrats starlight!!!! Good luck and do keep in touch to let us know how you get on. So when do you think you ov'ed?

Sorry to hear TEW got you m2o...better luck on this new cycle.

Starlight...i reckon it be about the 20th September...but your Docs will give u a better idea! .

Wishing you all a Happy New Year Ladies with lots of BFP's.

Congrats to the recent graduates.

Babydust to all

happy new year everyone!

Well I'm on the 2ww as of today (yipee an early ov) so fingers crossed for a NYE conception!!!

Good luck to everyone in this shiny new year!

HAAAAAAAAAAAAPPY New Year. May 2008 bring you a BFP and everything else you wish for.

No sign of any egg here? Haven't peed on the stick today yet last couple of months it's been CD14, today is CD15 so maybe it has hatched late? or I missed it? Who knows. BDing all the same. However, I have started my New Year diet so how conducive (sp?) that will be with conception I don't know. Let's hope Sods Law prevails.

Well didn't miss it...the turned up today. The lines were extra dark today too so not sure what that means, whether you can tell what part of the surge you test .

woohoo bucky! An early night for you and dp tonight

If you ov tomorrow maybe we can be testing buddies

At only 1dpo I am feeling particularly positive. If only because I'm much more sure I've hatched an egg this cycle and so feel like I've got a fighting chance

I'm sure I'll be posting all sorts of symptoms over the next two long weeks. Bucky can you remember when GG's back?

Happy new year everyone!

Can't quite join you on the wait yet... was expecting my today but my little egg seems to be missing in action. It had better hurry up - DH will be going away with work again from next week. Arg!

Good for you starting your diet Bucky. Mine begins when the chocolate runs out...

Hmm did eat Cheese today though Scaryhairy, which last time I checked was not a diet food. I made DP take pics of me in my underwear today though so I could do the before and after thing ...yeah right!

DG, I don't thing GG is back yet, she was going to Glasgow and then on to her New York trip...maybe wc 7th? I think we should def be testing buddies .

I have been doing a bit of research though....yes, I know, my Googling obsession has reared its head again. Although I don't think most people on the thread now have witnessed my amazing website finds before . Anyway, I have a stabbing stich like pain...ovulation pain. I was trying to find out at what point the egg will actually hatch. The LH surge is supposed to happen about 24-36 hours before the egg is hatched, but the stabbing pains are supposed to mean that the egg is being pinged out of the tube thingy at a very very fast speed hence the pain...suggesting the egg is hatching now . Am going to BD tonight and tommorrow night, but won't manage it in the morning. It will be too much of a shock having to get up at 6am again to actually get round to doing the deed. Hopefully THIS time something will happen [fustrated emotican].

Um, this is an 'all about me' post...sorry .

Oh and meant that maybe gg is back wc 7th...not that she was going to NY on wc 7th.

OOh! Thats three of us with ov on new years!
I got such pains last night but was sort of pleased cos it meant that ov was happening. Though, for 3 months now it has been CD17 and I have lost my opks so not entirely sure that it was ov
Also no EWCM at all
However, yesterdays temp did take a dip and this morning it shot up. Although, this morn was actually about midday!!

BD with DH this am anyway, you don't think it was too late do you?
We BD a day after ov pains, last month and nada, so feeling a bit negative about it all really.
Also ended up in tears, for a wee bit last night, cos that was the new year in and I really thought I would not be drinking cos I would be pregnant and instead was not drinking cos I had agreed to driving, thinking I would be pregnant. Are you with me so far??
Felt very silly cos my sisters new boyfriend saw me with my red eyes and was all concerned and I couldn't say anything, just laughed and said I was being a silly moo and to not worry about me

As for symptoms, can you have any so soon, felt nauseas a few times yesterday and boobs were a bit sore this am?
We BD on CD8, ov CD12 do you think some could have survived?
Na, I didn't think so either

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

Sorry, have not been around for ages. Welcome to newbies and big congrats to the BFP's.

Have only had v quick read through of all messages, but just wanted to say hello to everyone, and lets hope that 2008 brings us what we all want!! I'll read through messages properly later to catch up. Have noticed, though, bucky you have a "new year" name - very good!! I'll have to ditch the "turkey" now.

Am feeling (and looking) very fat now, after all the festivities. i think i officially weigh more than i have ever done, so guess what my NY resolution is??!! (aside from getting pregnant of course).

Have had a bit of a strange cycle. Am now CD28, but got 's late on CD's 17,18,19 (and poss longer but i ran out of sticks...) don't know what that means, but i know it's not meant to happen. BDed on CD 17 & 20. AF technically due today, and had a few cramps, but if i do come on it will mean my luteal phase is way to short. All in all not feeling hopeful at all. Have decided to concerntrate on diet and fitness in next couple of months, particularly diet as i have discovered in the past that it can be great at getting those hormones under control.

Well, sorry, have gone on about myself far too much. Now life is back to "normal" looking forward to more mn time, and catching up with everyone.

Today i have sore nips. haven't had these for a while hope it's the progesterone. going for a day22 test at lunchtime, wonder when I'll get the results this time.

Last cycle I did this test on CD29 and the results (when i finally got them) showed I hadn't ovulated by then.

Anyway, must get back to work. My NY resolution is to not spend as much time obsessing over symptoms on MN (ha ha yeah right think I've broken it already)

fairy not everyone sees their EWCM, but your temp rises about 0.1 degree every hour hour so if you took it late then it might have shot up because of that...it might not be too late, I'd keep bd-ing just in case!

bucky what about sore nips? how are they caused?

MOB maybe the flurry of festivities has caused you to ov a bit later than usual? hopefully you won't get AF today (or for a further 9 months), otherwise it may be a week late.

SH I'm with you on waiting for the chocolate to run out.

Happy new year all!!

Congrats Excitable and Starlight what a lovely start to the new year for you both.

twinkling sorry you feel so down. Hope you feel a bit better today.

Madold No AF is a good symptom! Hope it stays that way for you.

Well I'm on the 2WW now. I'm on day 22 (hello cycle buddy DG - hope your test goes well), but I had a little bleed (TMI alert - just brownish not red) on CD 18 and 19. Any ideas anyone?! Is that too early for implantation? I have no idea when I ovulated which doesn't help

SH and DG I agree on the healthy eating AFTER the chocs run out! I wouldn't want to waste them.

I can't wait for the chocs to run out.... I have two boxes of Roses, a tube of maltesers, a box shape tube of chocolate buttons, a whole dundee cake, macaroons, fudge, toffee and trifle left . Our parents came with masses of stuff and left it all here. If I eat it all before I start to not eat it, I will be HUGE!!

DG I will Google sore nips.

doh, don't think i've quite ov'ed yet, though I do feel crampy - got a massive (tmi) load of EWCM today and cervix is really high. off to continue with the bd marathon.

sore nips must equal ov nips

I never really get EWCM . I think its because I don't drink enough fluids. I rarely drink any water. Also I think it is because I am old in fertility terms....Maybe thats why the I always get BFNs? The swimmers have nothing to stick to...

DG hope you get a decent test result this time. How did it go?

tests - apparently I should be able to call up in 5 days and get the results, but am back there for another test (CD28 because I'm a late ov'er) next week so might just pop in and ask.

then I've got a U/S scan on the 21st, presumably to check for blockages. obviously am hoping they'll find a little bean in there, but if not at least I'll find out one way or the other. saves me doing an hpt this month!

DG I always get sore nips in the second part of my cycle, so I think it does relate to progesterone.

I am v confused this month. My egg is AWOL. I wish it would hurry up before DH leaves London and I have to wait for yet another cycle...

Bucky - I have one of these www.hotelchocolat.co.uk/cid/XYRPE5YQVSMOZEPB1YI82DHIDOOFWY0E/chocolate-bars-Chcoslab/. It is the size of my head and I will not be running out of chocolate anytime before Easter!

mmm. Crostini fruit and nut dark....yum. . Ate biscuits today , no cheese yet though. I only ate Rich Tea biscuits though, don't think they count as real biscuits...

hi everyone!!
i was just wonderin if you guys mind me joinin you for a spot of symptom spottin as im drivin the TTC threat girls mad i think!! i see a few of you are on here too so it will undoubtedly be a friendly crowd!!
well my symptoms seem to be... v. tender boobies, tiredness, 24 hour nausea and a spot of vomiting aswell!! i thought it might have been down to my crimbo cold but that has gone now and the symptoms havent gone in the slightest if anythin they have gotten worse!! (im on CD26 of cycle 2 TTC#2 BTW!!) so what dya reckon girls?? sounds promisin??
xx ei xx

Sounds very promising Ei. Are they the same symptoms as you had with number one?

Rich tea biscuits do not count, Bucky. They are not nice enough to have many calories, if any at all. (This is one of the fabulous diet rules that have made all of my size 12 clothes redundant...!) I am on the Toblerone. Do you think it is any good for conception??
