I do!
I'm one day late I think- my af are a little irregular but never much more than 35 days since ds arrived. I'm on cd36 today.
Symptom spottig craziness has included feeling dizzy yesterday afternoon and feeling a little queasy for the last few mornings and sometimes when I get up in the night with ds.

Who else is trying not to put their crazy hat on?

I'm trying to avoid poas till the weekend.

missp2010 · 08/09/2010 11:15

Well, I knew I wouldn't be able to wait until Friday to test. POAS this morning and got a BFP!! Hoping AF stays away for the foreseeable future.

broodywantcoilout · 06/09/2010 19:14

Bfn :'(

sayitwithsam · 06/09/2010 18:38

Oh wow, congratulations newyears! I tested on the day before I was due. This must be a freakishly lucky thread, so glad I joined!

newyearsday · 06/09/2010 15:50

Hi missp, I'm on CD36 today, 15DPO, my period was due today or tomorrow. I have long, irregular cycles so temping helped me pinpoint OV and discover that my luteal phase is 15-16 days.

Good luck to you too! xx

broodywantcoilout · 06/09/2010 15:20

congratulations grumpyfish and mrsflux!!
i cant hold out until sat/sun 2 test with my 1st response. have brought a couple of cheapo superdrug ones 2day, am waiting til i need 2 go pee (sorry if tmi) and shall b taking 1 along with me. the 1st response i took 4 days ago was negative, but i knew that was 2 early, took after speaking 2 dr about migrated coil-so needed doing then.

missp2010 · 06/09/2010 13:15

Ooo congratulations to you too newyears! When did you test? I'm on CD 24 and am sooo desperate to POAS!!

Alien fingers crossed for you!

xx

newyearsday · 06/09/2010 08:54

I'm so shocked I'm still shaking, I'm pregnant!

It's the 1st positive pregnancy test I've ever seen in my life!

alien06 · 05/09/2010 20:43

ooo I have sore boobs too! and same other symptom as you missp2010 the CM!! Is that a symptom then?

I am due in next 5 days or so

congrats sayitwithsam

sayitwithsam · 05/09/2010 19:44

I had quite a few 'symptoms' I listed but honestly less than the other months! The cramps were so bad (and still are) I was certain I was about to come on. I just took my last test because I thought why not? This fertility stuff is impossible to predict!
It was the first month using the clearblue monitor which was so much better than the OPK test sticks. I was sure I felt ovulation pains after I'd had my positive days and dragged my DH to bed for last go, I think that was the lucky one Wink
Now I've just got the worry of scans and the next nine months. Good luck everyone.

missp2010 · 05/09/2010 19:13

Wonderful news Sam :o congratulations!

I still have very strange feeling in boobs, and still an abundance of CM (sorry for tmi) hoping this is good, esp as you said you had similar!

I will not test....I will not test.....I will not test

newyearsday · 05/09/2010 18:51

CONGRATULATIONS SAM !!!! You must be over the moon. Good luck! xx

I'm on 14DPO but AF isn't due until Mon or Tues so I haven't tested yet. I've had tender boobs and tiredness for a week, and over the last few days lots of twinges. So tomorrow is the day. If my morning temp hasn't dropped I'll do a test. Gulp.

chocolateme · 05/09/2010 13:08

Congratulations SAM Smile ....hope to be joining u soon!!!

sayitwithsam · 04/09/2010 17:21

My DH doesn't want to tell anyone until its obvious. Which is going to be SO hard! I went shopping with my mother-in-law today and was bursting to tell her. I've got to try and see my GP Monday (it's hard getting appointments when you live in an area with predominantly elderly people). Then I'll get an early scan. They said this pregnancy will be consultant led so I can only hope they'll be more on the ball.
I must have looked at the test a dozen times today, I just can't believe it!

I hope everyone on here has the same result this month.

GrumpyFish · 04/09/2010 14:34

Brilliant!!! That is fab Sam Smile. So nearly replied to your last post saying that I'd been convinced AF was on her way too, but didn't want to jinx things. Hope you're having fun celebrating!

sayitwithsam · 04/09/2010 07:44

Oh my God, I'm pregnant!!!!!

georgiegirl15 · 03/09/2010 21:40

Oh Sayitwithsam, sorry. I feel the same - just waiting but on a brighter note - spoke to my friend who is pregnant and she siad all your symptoms and that she was convinced she was going to have her AF but then was late and nearly died of shock when she had a BFP! (The BFN was too early!) Try again in a few days. Good luck.

sayitwithsam · 03/09/2010 19:41

Bad cramps and back pain, twinges in my lady area and I KNOW she about to make an appearance. I HATE this bit.

GrumpyFish · 02/09/2010 18:20

Just popping back to say hello and wish all of you still waiting good luck!

georgiegirl you're defnitely not selfish to want another! I'm also desperate for no. 2 although I don't seem to do babies easily (and have promised DH that I will stop at 2 if we can just get that far!) but I think wanting 2 is just normal!

newyearsday your temps sound similar to how mine were - dipped on day 8 (almost to coverline), then started to go up, but only slowly (i.e. wasn't the one day implantation dip that you read about) but then they just climbed and climbed until I stopped charting at 14DPO (by which point temp was much higher than normal).

MummyAbroad I think I have spotted you on the "other" board.... I'm also swapping between boards just now and definitely not brave enough to start posting in Pregnancy yet.

sam your symptoms all sound good, ignore the BFN sounds like it was far too early. Tiredness has been the main symptom for me, I almost took a nap on a display bed in Ikea yesterday, I was so exhuasted.

Fingers crossed for you all!

sayitwithsam · 02/09/2010 09:10

Woke up feeling sick but also really hungry. I also noticed a massive spot on my leg that had popped up over night. I don't get spots, it's a deal I've got going with God. I have psoriasis so it's only fair that spots are kept for other people! I'm so tired, the thought of sorting my stock out today and walking the dog is making me want to crawl under the duvet and not come out.
How's everyone else, any news?

sayitwithsam · 01/09/2010 23:04

You're not selfish georgiegirl to want another baby. I was planning my second when I was two months in with my first pregnancy (much to my husbands horror :)

I've had the lotion like CM for the past few days too missp. Today I noticed a strong odour though (sorry about too much info) so now I'm worried I've got a yeast infection. Isn't it just lovely being a woman?! I had really tender boobs when I was pregnant but at the moment they're just swollen. Some back pain today but I did sit in a cinema so it could be from the uncomfortable seats!

Fingers very crossed for all of us.

georgiegirl15 · 01/09/2010 21:08

Hi all! Can I join you? It seems such a lucky thread. Congrats to all the positive tests. Hang on in there to everyone else. I'm on my third month of clomid - having just been upped to 100mg. Have been desp. hoping that it would be this month - am due on 7th but have had crampy pains today, sore boobs and sicky feeling but dont think I am. I already have one beautiful darling son who is 2 and perhaps I am being selfish wanting another so badly....anyway time will tell - just get this week over with!

missp2010 · 01/09/2010 19:54

Hello, can I join you all? Congratulations to all with BFP's! Lets hope some of your luck rubs off on the rest of us.

Posted a message earlier but perhaps this is a better place to ask. Obviously I'm symptom spotting, who can resist?! I have had very tingly boobs the last few days, it feels just like when you're BFing and feel the letdown reflex. I keep expecting to have leaky boobs. And also have felt quite nauseous on a couple of occasions, plus have had an increase in CM (it's almost like consistency of lotion...sorry yuck!

What do you think, are these possible signs?....

sayitwithsam · 01/09/2010 13:08

They have yes, I just feel heavy in the lady area now, can't really explain it. And this morning I didn't feel as sick as usual but have weird fluttery in my belly. I haven't had that since my first baby was swimming around in there around five months in.
