Congrats no1childminder!

Fingers crossed Pixiepops!

This is my stop, got AF this morning. A little early but deffo AF. :(

Im walking to the bus stop now for the November bus, hay if im successful this month we could share a birthday!

Congratulations no1childminder :)

I'm not entirely sure what's happening with me... AF's due next Wed, and I got a BFN yesterday morning, so was fairly resigned to moving onto the November bus. Last night though, I was woken in the night with stomach cramps. This never normally happens, I normally get some cramps about 12hrs before AF appears, and am pretty much regular as clockwork cyclewise. Could it maybe be some kind of implantation cramping? I'm probably being overly optimistic, but I hope so!

congrats no1childminder Smile is this your first? or do you have child(ren) already?

still absolutely no symptoms here. DP and I had a few 'words' this morning and I had to walk away as I started crying. Unusual for me to get so upset over a silly little thing. So my hormones are definitely doing something but still no sore boobs or bloated belly which i usualy get at least 7 days before AF arrives. Of course I'm trying to be sensible and not get my hopes up but I can't help it. For me the total absence of my usual pre AF symptoms is making me wonder if I'm PG......
Not due AF until Weds, going to try and hold out until Friday to test if she doesn't arrive by then.

i wish i mean BFN

Thinking11 · 05/02/2011 23:22

real crampy stomach today, AF, hunger or PG? I did another too early to be any use test today and of course BFP, i hope i can hold off doing another tomorrow!

no1childminder · 05/02/2011 19:49

thank you goingmadtrying

jaggythistle · 05/02/2011 19:34

Starlight - when I was pregnant I did note cramping from about 7dpo.

however that was my first ever cycle charting and having had 4 not pregnant cycles this time around, i have noticed a bit of cramping (and got my hopes up) a couple of times.

So that wasn't actually very helpful Blush

could be a sign, could be just not so noticeable when you're not symptom spotting looking for it like I was.

Congrats no1childminder fx queenrollo

no1childminder · 05/02/2011 18:30

no1childminder · 05/02/2011 18:29

can i hope on and buy a ticket?! got my BFP this afternoon!!! :)

Karbea · 05/02/2011 15:24

Hello lovelies, I'm back from the states, and spotting lightly so fully expect to be jumping off the bus today or tmr :(

starlight I think as soon as you start swi you start noticing all sorts of things you'd probably normally ignore, but you never know...

Wishing everyone who has left the bus good luck for the November bus, I am fully expecting to join you too as have had hardly any swi this month as my DH has been away. But... This morning when I wiped a had CM with brownish pinkish blood, only a small amount. I've never had this before, even before I was on the pill. Last Swi was last Sunday, AF due sometime after next sat. Gone from having now hope at all and thinking I'll be relaxed we are in no rush etc...to thinking 'could this be a sign'! Here's to a week of bloody constant symptom spotting!

queenrollo · 05/02/2011 10:28

still haven't got my usual pre-AF symptoms.....trying not to get my hopes up...

goingmadtrying · 05/02/2011 07:08

Well this month hasn't given us many BFPs on this bus has it, see you all on the November bus, fx for all those still to test :)

hey all. that's me off the bus. cd as expected by looking at my chart!

off to hang out in charters anonymous, it's nice in there. :) good luck everyone.

Karbea · 04/02/2011 14:41

Aww exciting! I'm going to test then too!

xstitch · 04/02/2011 14:37

Tested on Wednesday and BFN. Have made a pact with DP to wait until Sunday before testing again. don't want to get our hopes up too much. Has the benefit of neither of us going off to work.

Karbea · 04/02/2011 14:30

stitch have you tested?

mrshedgehog · 04/02/2011 14:24

I'm pretty sure AF is on way. Some spotting now.

goingmadtrying I've just always wanted 3. DP wasn't sure but agreed to try 6 months ago.

A friend has put it in perspective for me today as is 11 weeks preg and is having cramps and spotting so I'm moving on to next month and supporting her instead of brooding !!

Thinking11 · 04/02/2011 07:51

I had a stich like discomfort in my ribs on the right side all day yesterday. Last night I had a bubbly belly all night and its still the same. I absolutely shatteed but it is Friday!

I was dreaming about testing and getting a BFP last night so I got up and tested, although ive promised myself i wouldnt. I got a BFN but it is still 5 days before AF due so I may just have test too early.

God I hate this wait!

Come October bus we need some good news!!!
