Anybody else due to test around 24th January?

Thanx x

well thats not unusual either hun so dont worry. try and relax....lol i should listen to my own advice occassionally :) happy birthday by the way xx

Secretlywishing: thanks so very much for giving me hope. No symptoms either way at the moment: which is frustrating in itself! x

wishinandahopin - it is possible. you are more likely to get a true reading closer to af due date as it relies on hcg and it takes time to produce hcg. some women dont get +ves til much later. i have been to see dr about my missing af....she said she disregards negatives under 6 weeks and if u have signs n symptoms. wait til due date n test again

local - does that mean af has arrived?? if so im really sorry hun

Another question answered- not preggers. Good luck to all for next time xx

AF is now a measly 3 days late. Dr has diagnosed kidney infection and I am having serious antibiotics to beat it down. Suspect I also have walking pneumonia - been working up to this drop for ages. This is the first time I have been able to walk downstairs without falling in days... everything tastes weird and kind of grim, am only eating watery fruit, with some potato once a day as everything makes me sick.
So no idea if i'm upduffed or not, or even if I want to be considering the extent of current illness and possible effects on unborn child.
Bah. Sorry, just a bit of a whinge

Need your experienced advice please girlies! Started another thread on early testing. Searching (still) for hope- although the generous girls who replied seem to think it could go either way, and are wishing me the best! My period is due on Monday, but as it's my birthday today - did a preg test with FMU: negative. Anyone had a negative turn positive as it's too early? Or should it have shown up on the early superdrug test by now? I know deep down it's a waiting game. But mn has turned me into a nutter! Please God let there be someone who had a neg 3 days before AF which turned positive....

Enjoy the lunch and hang in there!!

Well I'm at work so that's good :) and lunch withthe girls. My son is 4 years old :) he's amazing
Xx

secretly the wait is just awful...try some of Katy's virtual chocolate brownies and try...if you can...to stay calm. Have you got much on today? Is there anything you can be doing to try and distract you from all of this and help with the wait? How old is your DC1? Thinking of you and sending a big hug over to you as well!!

awwe babe you need to relax i know its easer said than done but i keep thinking if shes gonna come shes gonna come but if i keep thinkin about it it will just delay her more :(

its soo damn annoyin sending over all my hugs xxxx

Well day 14 is here still no sign of af but I am determined not to poas. I've already been in tears and I've actually been sick this morning. not sure if its pg or if its frustration n stress over all of this. Hope everyone is feeling ok x

sorry, the above post should have said to secretly as well!

BlueCrane I'm so sorry for your disappointment, I've been there with late AFs and beeing lured in to a false sense of excitment!

Have some chocolate brownies!

Congrats to all the BFPs there have been quite a few on this thread!

Thanks secretly I've perked up as the afternoon has gone on...even though cramps have gotten worse but hey ho..on we go! Thanks for all the encouraging words and you take care!!

:) positivity is best hun, always.

trust me its been a very long two weeks, but stressing wondering panicking isnt going to make things better....itll only make it worse

as u can probably tell im in happy mood, and not paranoid n weepy mood as shown earlier

serioisly i hpe r ok hun
xx

secretly DH was feeling up to a walk to the shop but only brought a small bar but to be honest the cramps have made me feel a bit sick so not sure I could've managed a family sized one!

In a sense another month of TTC and DTD isn't too bad providing I stay chilled ! It's another month to save with 2 full salaries as well!

Really hope you get some answers soon - you're doing remarkably well waiting so long!! If you can manage to hold out for the docs then at least it keeps consistent with who you're seeing. Not easy though!

i dont know...i just feel wrong sitting n waiting

and im probably being harsh on dh, he knows how upset n frustrated i get when i get negatives or delays....suppose hes tryng to protect

by the way how big was the bar of galaxy if it wsnt family sze ill be sending u back to the shop for more lol

i once read on a forum with my ist pg

"if at first u dont conceive, try try and try again"

and i suppose another month of good dtd cant harm ditch the chart, dont stress (easier said than done i know) and just go for it for a while :) i hope it doesnt take long

who knows perhaps af will arrive for me also, and well be back here in a mnth or two xx

Congrats fluffy Donkey x

thanks secretly...one bar of galaxy down!!

From a friends experience sounds as though they'll probably suggest a c-sec to avoid risk of what happenned last time and mean they can control it all a bit more. What a pain in the waiting though! Would you get the results quicker at the family planning clinic?

lalabaloo not sure wat the plan of action will be but itll either be asprin or heparin injections, i will have regular bloods, scans and perhaps another c-sec (as i had an emergency one last time as i couldnt dilate after 3 days of established contractions)

gosh im not making this sound good for anyone am i lol sorry

im debating whether to go to fam plan clinic - im sick of waiting til next week. i want answers its soooooo frustrating and worrying

what makes it worse if dh is so laid back over it all he just keeps telling me to wait til next week to see gp

xx

Secretlywishing oh no that must be making it extra difficult! Will they be able to control the clotting problems when you are pregnant?

BlueCrane Awww I really feel for you, TTC really messes with your head! Definitely eat as much chocolate as possible! I'm making chocolate brownies later so I'll bring some virtual ones to share with everyone

Awwwww bluecrane I'm so sorry. I wish I could give u a cuddle. Try and relax chocolate hot water bottle is good idea. Thinking of u. Xx

Thanks for all the responses...cheered me up a bit as having a pretty pants day TBH...tried going back to work this morning but with hideous AF cramps made me feel v ill again so had to come home...only to find that DH is ill with an upset stomach so trying to look after him. Feel SO emotional about the whole TTC thing and just really fed up at having waited all week getting my hopes up for a late BFP and AF decides to turn up! I know it's only month 1 but I really had started to think I was PG and that it was just late showing on th tests. How your mind plays tricks when it comes to symptoms when TTCing!!

Sorry...emotional splurge over...

I've seen gp once last week she has told me to wait and submit another sample after the 29th then see her again. What is hard is that if I am pg I need to be seen str8 away as I am prone to bloodclots ie deep vein thrombosis. My last pg nearly killed me. The doc says it'll b ok if I'm closely monitored from day one. Oh the joys......still no sign of af
