    Ok ladies. As PMA is sadly lacking I want all of you to repeat this:

    I WILL get pregnant. I WILL carry to term. I WILL give birth to a healthy child. My baby WILL be awesome. It may take longer than I wanted and my road may be rocky but in the end, I WILL get there.

    ^^^^^^^^Can I second that too please ;)
    If you can think it........it will happen

    Hello, congratulations to the BFPs.

    Probably didn't highlight it properly but I'm 5dpo. Not much to report here though Just feeling really run down after a busy week and had a strange 2day fever over the weekend without any other symptoms. Better today though.

  • congratulations on a nice digi reading Nessie

    good luck Teamlowe, go go go! LOL

    I'm still tempted to POAS tomorrow to put myself out of my misery. What do you think guys? Is it better for PMA to just wait for AF?

    Congratulations to the BFPs! Hugs to those that need them as well. Can I be added to the list if possible please? Today is CD1, arrived this afternoon so on to ntnp this month. Have a feeling it will be more trying than preventing though :p. Had really bad PMT this month as well, crying at the drop of a hat and experiencing unnatural amounts of rage when the side plates I wanted to order online were out of stock...

    Actually, this may be a stupid question, but when do you actually count CD1 from? Have read in a few places that if it starts late afternoon then the next day counts as the first day. Never used to even think about this sort of stuff, only worry if my period was late!
    Hold my hand harder
    Ease my mind
    Roll down the smoke screen
    And open the sky

    Let me fly

    Congrats Nessie - another one to add to the january BFP - a thon! How many days late were you?
    Be Nice - whether to test early depends I think on whether or not you can handle a chem. If you would prefer to know, so you know your tubes were open for example, go for it. Just remember an early negative does not mean you're out for the month - as I can testify. So really you're only testing to see if you get a faint positive, anything but that just means wait and test a little longer. When are you due on?

    after too many negative tests or worse, tlps which turn out to be nothing but make me believe and then crushing disappointment, I'd say wait. Much easier said than done.

  • thanks for the advice code and an9i, AF is due on Weds so I'm getting itchy feet. I think I'll have to either distract myself or POAS.
    I have a feeling I might have had a chem last month as I had two days of light spotting before AF arrived properly IFYKWIM. If it doesn't happen for me this month them I may start OPKing and then I'll be a proper POASer LOL!

    hugs Ruth26 for CD1, CD1 is the first day of AF so it sounds as if you have got that right. Good luck for this cycle.

    Tinkwings, they are really pretty creations. BTW if you click on your facebook link it comes up with what looks like you real name. I'm not sure if you intended for that to happen.

    I think you cound cd1 as the first day with any red blood, so as opposed to spotting. It doesnt matter if it starts in the afternoon.

    Do you not normally get spotting before AF?

    Its weird when I was on the pill Id just get AF and never any spotting. Now I always tend to get at least 1 day of it before. It was weird at first but now Im glad as atleast I get a warning! Although theres been the very odd month without it, which has then caused disappointment as it made me think AF wasnt coming!

    I'm not sure, I guess I'm on the look out for AF now. Before AF always took me by surprise! I was on the pill but was really rubbish at taking it at the right time.
