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.

cask = cash!

I've had indigestion before when pg Pinky! I am almost completely symptom free if I am honest. I have always known I was pg the 3 previous times long before AF was due, so I just can't see it having happened for us this month. Wishing AF would show up and put me out of my misery before I crack and waste more cask on tests!!

horrible indigestion today. Only symptom, unless I count the tiredness (didn't have much sleep) and faint queasiness (may be in my head).

Crampy pains off and on. :(
Felt very emotional when stupid men shouting at their kids at zoo woke ds after only 20 min nap! Angry
bit queasy but could be in my head.

Fed up waiting. Might test soon just to put me out of my misery [frustrated] need Biscuit

Morning all. I have crampy pains too. Have now had them for 3 days though, still no AF. No real pg symptoms (not that I am symptom spotting!!), no AF yet either (due today). Temps have gone a little higher though.... but that could be the bed socks I wore last night, or the 3 am wake up by DS. Have a fun day of not obsessing!! Suspect I'll be out by this evening anyway.

I am failing miserably at this. I've spent a fortune on tests and with every negative I get, I get a bit more resigned to all these symptoms just being a fluke.

I have no tests in the house as can't resist at all if they are here. Have just read back my earlier post... so much for not symptom spotting! Also off out for the day with DS, hopefully will distract a bit! Enjoy zoo.

Hello grumpy!

Sorry to hear you've had a couple of early mc. Hope things are more positive for you this time!
I've only got a couple of cheap boots own brand tests at home. They say they're good from first day of missed af. Just hoping the longer I leave it the better my chances are.

Am taking ds off to zoo to try anddiatract me from my crazy symptom spotting tendencies!

Hello, can I join you? Bit of a lurker on this board, one DS and 2 (v early) MCs since... have been on a break from TTC for a few months to sort cycles but went for it this month. Now on CD 28 of what is usually a 28 day cycle, refusing to test unless AF doesn't show. Don't really feel at all pregnant other that slightly sore (.)(.), but think I get this every month, pg or not. Temps still slightly high but nothing to give me too much hope. Have had AF-type cramps since yesterday, although normally would only get these for an hour or so before AF arrives. Determined not to test until at least Sunday (in reality suspect AF will be here by then)not least because I just can't justify giving any more of our money to the First Response / Clearblue people!

Oh and I've put on weight in the last week- but that might be delayed effects of holiday eating! Grin
