If you've got blocked sinuses too you're definitely up the duff!

madoldbird · 15/02/2008 20:39

Hey, scary it's a miracle!! I'm pregnant even before i've ovulated

Hey, shall i start one of those "how soon can i test" threads. Mind you, seeing as i have a cough AND blocked sinuses, i'd no doubt get a BFP right now

ei I'm so pleased to hear it's not just me with my post-its all over the desk! I finally confessed to DH about MN last night (he had been wondering about the post-its) He started telling me that he talks to a man at work about TTC, as they have been trying for about the same time with no joy. I then told him that i talk to loads of women i've never met about it!!!

EiWishFor3MoreWishes · 15/02/2008 20:46

MOB LOL at the loadsa women you dont know i have never though about it in that way i always saw it as meeting up with old mates in a way and new ones obv i have only told my sister and more recently my mum about TTC so it is nice to have all you ladies to gas about babies/symptoms/Ov etc without feeling as if i should be embarrassed about goin on iyswim

twinklingfairy · 15/02/2008 20:47

ooh yummy, Thortons Thanks ei
AND a cream cake, oh go on then, cheers scary

Will have a beer, but no doubt DH will finish it. I just haven't got into the swing of drinking again, since pregnancy then BF DD must attempt to rectify that soon

Can I kid on, just for a minute that AF hasn't arrived though? Cos, since a blob of dark brown this aftenoon, no more yuckieness down below. Is that good, could it not be AF.

Nope, can't kid myself, this happend last month too and I had myself convinced that it might just be implantation. Not likely.
Defo onto the vit B (was it B or B6 *mibbes?)

Ooh yes MAB fairies can stomp, didn't you see tinkerbell in Peter Pan? she really can stomp. Fairy dust everywhere!!

ScaryHairy · 15/02/2008 20:50

Gosh, I think it is much easier to talk to you lot about it than people I know in r/l. One of my friends knows I am trying, but I doubt I would give her detailed descriptions of my cm!!

madoldbird · 15/02/2008 20:54

EI yes, i think you're right - you lot here know far more abut me in some respects than most of my friends in RL. Have just been laughing at your compulsive testing that you mentioned in the waiting room. This afternoon i was in Sainsbury's seriously considering buying a HPT to carry out now, as i hadn't got my +ve OPK,so OBVIOUSLY i was pregnant, and the AF i had had (heavy bleeding, clots and all) was just implantation!!!! I manged to stop myself.

TF stomp away, then, stomp away!!! And can you get down to some proper drinking please?! I have just poured myself a G&T and DD has come into me, asked me if it was alcohol, and told me that i was killing millions of my cells, and i am going to DIE!!! Lovely.

EiWishFor3MoreWishes · 15/02/2008 20:55

yeah i know what you mean scary my BF would positively vomit if i started describing the goings on in my nether regions i think i would be so mortified that i would have to go and hide in a big hole until she had forgotten all about it
xx ei xx

coolkat · 15/02/2008 20:55

Oi TF Chuck us a choccie now you picked yourself up and dusted yourself down!!!

I do not discuss TTC with anyone in RL so sadly you guys get the good the bad and the strops!! ...... Sorry

EiWishFor3MoreWishes · 15/02/2008 21:04

CK we are happy to hear them so vent away
xx ei xx

twinklingfairy · 15/02/2008 21:04

Sure coolkat it is a massive box ei has outdone herself on the sweets this time. YuuUummy!!

I think I might save my stomping for tommorrow morning when she arrives in force. Bit stomped out for now.
Thanks you guys for easing me out of my cream puff corner

My poor wee sis gets some gory details, but not too many. You guys get the best bits oh and DH gets lots of yucky details too. teehee

digitalgirl · 15/02/2008 21:35

hey MOB nice to see you! Only nausea over here, usually sorted out with some comfort food, tonight's was fish finger sandwiches. Btw dh and I shared a whole bottle of champagne when I conceived. So I think that makes champagne a ttc aid. Glug away!

Fairy - sorry to hear your feeling down. If you do end up taking a break make sure you enjoy yourself. Nights out with the girls for example.

scary - have a lovely time!

Bucky2008 · 15/02/2008 21:56

I just typed LOADs and accidentally deleted it. . AND i had not made notes .

so edited version:

Really glad to see you back PicknMix. Hope your new house is the best house you have ever lived in.

Jollybear you are so brave and strong. I hope your scan goes really well. Whenever I have a sh*t day over something stupid now I think of you and your PMA (Positive Mental Attitude ) and it makes me realise that life is what you make it. You deserve a BFP soon

Fairy hope your bottom is not sore anymore after your fairyflop . Glad Mrs Ei's chocs cheered you up.

Hey DG/Digibean the weeks are flying. The next time we meet up you will be massive .

GRIFFINGIRL WHERE ARE YOU????? . You know I am going to come and find you if you don't come out of your lurking place soon. .

You are all such sweeties on here. AWww. Bucky is feeling all sentimental tonight .

The Finn dog has been really poorly . I thought he would have to go to doggy hospital but he seems to be on the mend hopefully now. He had a bad case of worms and then was allergic to his worming medicine. . I wanted to stay home from work and look after him like a baby....

AF is still hanging out here, so no news in that regard.

Have a good weekend girls.

mibbes · 15/02/2008 23:00

sorry quick post - Fairy I take VitB6 and B-Complex, they are supposed to help each other be absorbed.
MOB loving the yawning symptom !
no more symtpoms here apart from very tired zzzzz ooh may have the yawn symtpom

coolkat · 16/02/2008 08:51

Morning

Any testers? I feel sick but also got tummy ache so do not know whether to test. My first wee of the day is upstairs in a pot waiting!!

Think I feel sick as got tummy ache but all the AF signs could also be all the BFP signs.

Don't know what to do. DH at work saying test....

Sorry for me ramble just needed to air.

mibbes · 16/02/2008 11:48

coolkat do the test ! if you have FMU waiting then dip the stick good luck !

coolkat · 16/02/2008 13:01

BFN Again but still no AF.

Oh well, being positive looks like more BD required!!!

mibbes · 16/02/2008 13:50

aahh coolkat so sorry BFN - how mant dpo ? maybe still too early ?

coolkat · 16/02/2008 14:03

God knows, give up now!!! Day 31 so I would have thought AF would have arrived. See what happens over next few days. DH been lovely today bless him text saying how we got loads of time this that and the other. Bless.

Then took mum shopping and my brother's baby due March so found myself in mothercare and Toys R Us looking at baby stuff, I did not feel upset just thought it would be worth the wait when it happens.

twinklingfairy · 16/02/2008 17:04

Still only a litle brown spotting
What is going on??

I don't want to test cos I am happy in my pretend world of I could be pregnant. A BFN would just crush that.

ScaryHairy · 16/02/2008 18:04

TF I'm having BFP fantasies too...

I have no more spotting, just an ache in my lower back. I have taken another test (BFN) but am telling myself that if a bean implanted yesterday when I got the spotting it would not show in my wee until at least tomorrow. That's my current fantasy and I'm sticking to it. I'm only 11 dpo (13 day luteal phase normally) in any event...

CK absolutely - it will be soooo worth it when it finally happens. All these babies will be very wanted and loved.

Hi Bucky I do hope Finn dog is feeling better.

Hi to everyone else. I hope youre enjoying the weekend.

coolkat · 16/02/2008 19:40

I still having BFP fantasies to even after two BFN's . . . . .

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend.

newtoTTC · 16/02/2008 19:58

Hi ladies
I'm new here. Had a BFN this afternoon but still convincing myself its not true yet! It's only the first month of TTC but I can but hope!

Tapster · 16/02/2008 20:05

Hello again. BFN today but I'm not sure when AF due - Weds/Thurs/Friday and tomorrow will be 14 DPO I think. Will test again tomorrow. I'm not sure if I want to be pregnant or not with no.2 as I wanted a larger gap although DH didn't. Even had half a glass of wine tonight although it did taste strange and I'm still feeling nauseous.

Good luck to those that also had BFN's today.

ScaryHairy · 17/02/2008 08:26

Good luck Tapster

The BFP fantasies are over for me. My temp has come down and cramps are continuing. I can try sitting in the corner with my fingers in my ears singing "la la la la" but TEW is still going to get me.

Oh well, cycle 7, FFS.
(Actually it's cycle 9 without contraception. Ho hum).
