This is me..TTC no3, 6th cycle. Due AF (probably, all a bit hit and miss at the mo) on 23rd, already tested (-ve), silly I know, far too early
Have v sore boobs, or is it imaginary...
And I'm super tired, but then always am with a 3 and 1year old....
Anyone else out there?

Not really TTC as have said on another thread but a) would like to be b) there is a chance I may be.
I have over tested. I bought loads off ebay and seem to not be able to resist testing so it seems to be about three times a day.
I'm due af on 21st. I'm also supertired but have three children and dh has been away so it may hvae been that. I can feel my boobs tingling now but then that could be because I am due on.
I did a test this morning that had a wide very faint line. I can only describe is looking like it was grease. The test line is reddish pink.

piper84 - how long have you been ttc? Is it your 1st?

maybe that's why they're sore. And why I get those funny looks at work, all the prodding...

here's a question... do you all stop drinking/eating lovely blue cheese/drinking caffeine etc etc at this time or do you wait for the bfp? I'm more middle of the road - i cut down a bit (def don't get drunk)but total denial seems a bit keen so early. maybe that's why i'm on 6th cycle

LOL at middle of road, i'm the same, i normally dont drink on the 2ww, but keep the caffine and the cheese

piper- hope it works out for you this time. Must be a real rollercoaster over the past 2 years.
It took 7mo with ds1 and only 2mo with ds 2 (pg1st mo but mc at 6weeks) The 1st 7mo wait was long enough!
Off now to have brie based supper - sure I have more smelly cheese, just in case it happens then can't have it!!

ok. so today have...
sore boobs, metallic mouth, nausea (ridiculous notion as it's far too early for that I think), tired, bit constipated.

Hi Bekkaboo! welcome to the 2ww , i'm the same as yourself due in 9 days, weather i can last till then without testing though is doubtful

ok my imaginary symptoms
need to wee a lot
sleepy in work all day
afey cramps but not due for 9 days

Bronze how are you?

Report
Bronze · 21/06/2008 11:28

Nothing either way.
I'm thinking not.

Oh well wasn't meant to be. I think I would have panicked if I was anyway.

Good luck to all those of you who are really wanting (to be) though.
