Congrats to all the BFPs!!!! So exciting :-D
Also, please say I'm not the only one who totally loves the number of mamas who lurk this thread, I feel like you're our guardian angels, telling us that it can happen!
Also, did you guys know... IMPLANTATION PAIN.... TOTALLY A THING. Not that I'm symptom spotting or anything, but I had unbearable cramps last night. UNBEARABLE. And then I'm counting the days, and apparently implantation is 7-10DPO.... and um, well it's 10 days since the start of the week ovia marked as 'fertile' and OH and I dtd 2 at the start of the week and OH MY GOD STOP GETTING MY HOPES UP BODY....
AF this month is going to crush me

Ha, if I was teacher I'd probably just stick up some naughty pictures and giggle profusely.

Still no AF, day 32... Decided to be brave and pee on a stick:
I think that might be a BFP, but not 100% sure.
That's definitely a BFP!! Congrats! Test again in a few days and show us your strong positive!I'm 9DPO (I think!) and biding my time before doing my first test. Think Sunday morning might be a good time to do so. Not really having any symptoms to speak of - had a very slight amount of brown-tinged cm yesterday which I'm not sure about and had sore nipples for 5 or 6 days but that's now gone away. Who knows!
I'm 9dpo and after 1 day of vaguely sore nipples for s couple of hours and maybe possible very faint cramps, I now have no symptoms. Yours sound much more hopeful than mine! I'm trying to hold firm to not testing unless AF is late because I don't have much hope.Congrats to all the BFPs!!!! So exciting :-D

And this is supposed to make us NOT want you as our teacher?
Srsly, my teachers just used to put a video on and then leave the room because they were too embarrassed. This was at an all girls school as well, with female teachers. *lesigh*
Although when I was younger I did have sex-ed taught by a celibate priest... that was a giggle.
Also, I swear sex-ed was all on how NOT to get pg....0 -
Well, my cramps have died down a lot. I had 48 hours of pretty intense ones. Not painful per se, but very achy with some pinching. Still got some mild aching. Gone from watery cm to a fair amount of ewcm. I'm trying to tell myself no no must just have OVed late... only way I am forcing myself not to take a pg test and be hugely disappointed.0

Evening ladies....it's nearly the weekend! :j
In relation to painful nipples I had them for about 4 days on the cycle I got my BFP never had them before or since, and they had stopped hurting about 8 days before I actually got my BFP, so I suppose it might have been a sign for me :cool: .....now where else could you go and have discussions about boobs, cm and DTD :rotfl:
I am going to tentatively say could I please be updated to 3dpo?. Thank you Kellykins. I actually had my positive OPK on Saturday but fertility friend put my crosshairs in for Monday (which does tally with my bbt). Not sure what's happened this month as that makes ov CD 18 which is later than usual for me. Clearly my body still hasn't got back to normal form the miscarriage. I normally have a 16 day LP which will give me a 36 day cycle this month, when I normally have a 30ish day one :mad:0 -
Yay go Dotty quitting the job you hated. You have employment law behind you for getting a new job or is the plan to put your feet up and concieve more easily due to less stress?!
Sex Ed at my all girls boarding school was Matron telling us "No" was the best form of contraception. In our minds we could still do it as long as we moaned "No" plenty. So come on ladies lets yell "Yes, yes, yes" in a manner that'll put even Sally to shame and we'll all be flashing our BFPs come March!
Did I mention I got a positive OPK today? I got three days of that last month only this month it'll line up with the wknd... see you all next week!!!;);)MFW: Nov 2008 £156k, Jun 2015 £129k, Jun 2017 £114k.0
