Morning everyone!

I hope we're all feeling positive today...

I reckon my AF is teasing me. Been spotting since Fri night, not due until tomorrow but cramping now... Boo!
A champagne, candle-lit bath sounds awesome!
Who's for a chocolate binge?!

I am going to try and hold out until Monday 26th I have one internet cheapy at home so lets hope it stays in the packet till then! Ummmm.

Catz · 19/01/2009 12:40

Congratulations Missie and theBoob.

Sorry to hear that AF may be on the way Angelfairy Hope it's just pg signs and AF stays away. I think you're right to hold off the testing till AF is late. My resolution (not sure I'll keep to it) is not to test until AF late, with DD (my only pg to date) I did test a day early but was so certain I was pg that it was only to confirm that, even then it was really faint. Cazza28 - the earliest I can sensibly test is Monday 26th so perhaps we can restrain each other!

I've also resolved to try not to symptom spot and not to look them up unless I've got symptoms that are so obvious that I can't ignore them IYSWIM. It's so easy to invent them I think. This morning I got up and thought 'no pg symptoms yet'. All perfectly OK - I'm only on day 22 so wouldn't really expect any yet. Plus have horrible cold that's left me knackered with no sense of smell or taste (metallic or not!) and I only stopped breastfeeding a few weeks ago so have no idea how they are supposed to feel.... then within seconds my body had convinced itself that my boobs were tingly and sore. Coffee tasted like kitchen cleaner (I'll put that down to the lockets) By the time I was in the shower I was sure I could feel the baby kick! ... Am determined to stop spotting!

AngelFairy · 19/01/2009 12:45

LOL Catz... We must sound deluded to passer byers!

girlwithacurl · 19/01/2009 12:54

i am symptom spotting ovulation pains... even though I know I am ovulating already... nuts!

Will power dust to all those trying not to test or symptom spot!

idreamofbeanie · 19/01/2009 12:59

Okay ladies, it's confession time . AF is not due until tomorrow or Wednesday and I promised myself that I would not test any earlier than Thursday. I don't even have any obvious symptoms this month but have just been feeling really positive about getting a BFP. Anyway gave in and used a first response test this morning and guess what - BFP ! It came up really fast and it is very clear. I didn't believe it so I picked up a clear blue digital test at lunchtime and tried again - it said pregnant, 1-2 weeks. It doesn't feel at all real, especially as AF isn't even late yet. I'm so excited but also really nervous AF will still show up this week somehow - please keep your fingers crossed for me. Trying not to get too carried away as it's very early days but OMG!!! I think I'm pregnant!

theboob · 19/01/2009 13:02

congratulations idream
i feel the same as you and only really got my first clear line this morning,all ebay ones showed a very faint line,i am in a state of shock and excitment congratulations again x x

Sorry for gatecrashing, just hadn't heard from theboob for a while on the other thread but Willmouse found her.

MrsPuddleduck · 19/01/2009 13:32

HC - you are making me look like a stalker! I don't even know theboob - I just know that you do! iyswim. They'll never let me join their thread now!

HumphreysCorner · 19/01/2009 13:36

Course they will let you join!

Good luck everyone!

Cazza28 · 19/01/2009 13:48

Congrats Idream! This is a lucky thread.. I can feel it!!

Catz good idea - I feel tempted already, last month I went through 9 cheapies, I am quite gled there is only one left!

My boobs are so sore today - dont normaly get that till a day or so before but could be an early on set of AF.

Catz · 19/01/2009 14:31

Congratulations I dream!

Hands off the test Cazza! Any idea when you ovulated? I'm not sure but I'm guessing it was around the 12th-14th Jan. DH was abroad from the 14th so didn't get BD for the whole of the probable fertile time so not that hopeful for this time...

theboob · 19/01/2009 15:22

hi HC .... i joined that many threads getting carried away with ttc that i forgot where i was lol,i will be due on the 1st too,many congratulations....and wil i know your not a stalker,is there a due in oct thread?????

lovelylullaby · 19/01/2009 15:25

Congrats to those with positives, am keeping fingers crossed for rest of you. Am excited to be on this thread with you - have been looking forward to joining a ttc. What details do you need, just usual cycle length and no of days since last AF?

Cazza28 · 19/01/2009 15:29

Well had a positive OPK at 10:00am Sunday 11th so just guessing it was Monday 12th (suppose could have been the Sunday) We BD 08th, 09th, 11th and 13th so I am hoping its all covered. Remember it only takes one go and I hold on to the fact sperm lives for 5 days if I miss my time!

I now have horrible heart burn.. could be the amount of junk food i had at the weekend though!

I hate this waiting, I always tell my self i wont symptom spot and always do!!!

HumphreysCorner · 19/01/2009 15:39

theboob-I daren't start a due Oct 2009 thread as AF is not actually late so don't want to tempt fate. Caved in and tested 3 days early.

theboob · 19/01/2009 15:44

my AF will be late after the 21st[grin[ i caved too but its not sunk in yet x

girlwithacurl · 19/01/2009 16:40

BTW willmouse you are most welcome! come and help me keep this sane and away from the tests / symptom spotting! unless of course we all get news like theboob, then of course its fine!

MensaReject · 19/01/2009 17:41

I'm on cd30 now, and no sign of af. Boobs seem less sore today but the thick slightly snotty cm is back. I don't think there is much point testing atm as i'm not sure what my cycle lenght will be on Clomid. I'd be devasted to see a bfn so will wait til day 35 i think. Or maybe i didn't ovulate at all this month so won't get af?!

AngelFairy · 19/01/2009 18:13

I am not leaving this thread, it's far too successful!!
Congratulations to all the BFPs... Very exciting!

Newcomers... Welcome!
We know you felt the positive vibes and flowed on in - ha!

Bubble... Stop stressing, I reckon you've hit it this month! How could you not with all that bding?!

Idream... Top up that folic acid! Well done hun x

Boob... Did you find the CB Digi more effective than the FR?

theboob · 19/01/2009 18:18
