Sickness bug or pregnancy symptom????

OK..............I am taking a very tentative step back into mumsnet, as I have been away for a few months.

I am currently on CD35 my last 2 cycles which seem true as they have settled to this were 35 and 36 days. I check my cervix although haven't been doing so for a whiile, however throught what the hell, and I would normally have pink cm around 2-3 days before my af starts. I normally kid myself that its not there but its a true sign she is on her way. Today nothing!!

I also have period style pains at the bottom of my tummy and have felt sick today, however my son had a bit of a bug on thursday,(although only sick once) so wondering if its that???Hmm

My tummy feels bloated and I have alot of GAS! sorry tmi :)

Tested on tuesday which would only have been approx 10 dpo and not fmu and was BFN

We haven/t really been trying over the last couple of months, and I started slimming world to lose some weight as GP said this could be causing the problem as have been TTC #3 for 12 months, other 2 took only 6 months after coming of the pill. I have lost 10lb in 4 weeks Grin

So what do you think?? Pg symptom or Sickness bug I am not going to test until next week as only have 1 test left and not going to be silly.

TIA

Hiya going! It's tough to say about the nausea, certainly could be early signs. Lots of people report gas early on.
I think if af is on the late.side, you should test with fmu tomorrow! It's likely to be conclusive either way.
Congratulations on the weight loss :)

Thanks have

tomorrow will be late but going to try and be good and not test until mid week Hmm

still feeling sicky on and off and also crampy tummy but no pink cm or proper sign of af?? My cervix does seem lower although that can change througout the day, guess time will tell :)

thank you for your best wishes x

I actually think AF is on her way now, pink cm very slight this evening, posting on MN sure fire way to make it start!

Have a good weekend everyone :)

Ok so now I'm even more confusedHmm

no pinky cm this morning and cervix very high?
Still crampy and have achy knees very usual for af?
Just picked dog poop up and heaving, actual being sick heaving only a few times but not usual for me?

Today is cd36 so will aim to test on Wednesday unless af arrives.

Omg not sure what to think :)

R thanks have that's really kind trying desperately not to get into the major symptom spotting or getting my hopes up but it's sooooo hard!

Also forgot to mention my sore boob, one side is rather painful!

Why does out bodies do this and give us fake symptoms, I feel deep down I'm not but so want to be :(

thanks again have :)

Hi going - I think j remember you from a few months back but just to say in keeping everything crossed for you. Bodies are awfully cruel that they play these tricks on us but hopefully this one isn't a trick and it's the real deal Smile

Great weight loss though - fantastic effort. Grin

Certainly the odd bouts of heaving etc could be an early sign. The weekend before I (finally!) got my bfp, I almost had to get DH to stop the car as I thought I was going to be sick. It was only that morning but it was v v odd.

Oh, and I'm sure I had achey knees before my bfp too........

Good luck anyway - will be keeping everything crossed for you xxx

Oooh biscuits that's really kind thank you, and I'm really pleased to hear that you to had achey knees, in some ways I think your body still might think that your af is coming????

Congrats on your bfp :)

if my son hadn't been I'll I would not even think of that, and I'm not a sicky person, and with ds2 felt sick for months but was never actually sick.

Only time will tell, I'll keep you posted more likely thataf has arrived!!!

Morning biscuits
welllll..........
No AF yet????
Cd 37, and cervix still high feels open but no sign of af cm nice and White.
Have had a couple of stupid length cycles previously so I'm beginning to think it could just be one of them :(

still achy feeling tummy and achy boobs but don't feel pg and urine is getting darker which tends to happen just before af.

Not tested trying to be strong and wait think I know deep down it will be bfn and don't want the disappointment, I'm also annoyed cause my cycles are stupid why can't they just be normal 28 days like they were last time???

Thank you for thinking of me x

Hi Going. I got my BFP last week and pretty much had exactly the same situation as you. I had sort of 'stepped back' from manically trying. I had lost 20lbs and only SWI once last month. However, it seems to have worked!

I am gassy and randomly ran to be sick. I didn't get my BFP until 14dpo though.

Fx for you. Hope its the good news you are after!

I'm already past 14dpo but just think it will turn out to be a late af! Got tummy cramps so reckon by tomorrow itll be here :(

congrats on your bfp Grin how long have you been trying?
