There's only one question on my mind: Am I pregnant? Did it happen this time? But no-one can tell me! Am only 5dpo so def no way of telling. Sitting symptom spotting and troughing down mini eggs thinking, could be pg/likely to be pms. Not even like I expect anyone to be able to give any advice or look into crystal balls...just wanted to say on here, I find it quite annoying. Roll on next week...

But you know poas is meant to be done first thing am, no need to give up hope just yet, plus as Griselda said, it's still early as well.

Am now not going out with MIL tomorrow night, don't know whether to POAS tomorrow morning anyway or just wait a couple of days for the period.

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 19:09

Oh but it's still a bit early for you, Bex, isn't it? Try again in a couple of days first thing in the morning. But I know all too well the disappointment of the single line, when you've been telling yourself you don't expect a positive, but secretly thinking this really might be it. Poor old you. Are you ok?

My sanity was questionable well before ttc! Hmm some aches in the right region. Could be muscle pulled from sneezing, could be bowel! (Tmi?!). Not af, no way. Couldn't possibly be Hmm

I reckon we might all reasonably worry about our sanity anyway :)

Hmm sick again this morning. Feel ok atm though. Occasional cramps confusing me. Like you dizzy will feel a bit worried about my sanity if I get af/bfn! Also feel giddy/faint at times.
Yeah think I might cave and test tomorrow if temp still above cover line!

I am so envious of the sickness! I can never wOrk out if the twinges are just perfectly normal and I am only noticing them because I'm focussing so intently on that part of my body at the moment.

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 09:19

Still getting slight twinges down there too, which really makes me think it's the prelude to a period grr

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 09:17

Well let's just hope not! I will feel a complete idiot after all this nausea/feeling sick if I turn out to not be pregnant!

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 09:10

I know. I'm an idiot :o The sobbing is probably actually premenstrual now I come to think of it!

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 08:20

lol sorry but it does seem amusing, the way we feel better when something unpleasant is happening. And you're right, nothing we can do until AH shows up or not. I'm on CD25, another 4 days to go.

Still been feeling a bit nauseous. Managed to make myself feel better by eating some apples ~desperately still trying to make myself believe~

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 08:16

I guess really there's nothing that any of us can really do but wait till af does or doesn't show up (ignoring potential obsession over whether it is or isn't an implantation bleed!).

Feel a lot better after an unexpected but cathartic sobbing session on the sofa watching Eastenders on iplayer!

It varies, sometimes spot like 2 cycles ago on cd26 but usually spot am cd27 and af arrives pm. Predicted af on cd24 unusual even for me!

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 07:02

Oh sorry, was trying to post whilst also doing things for OH - sorry for asking pointless question when you already said! Blush OH out door now so can concentrate properly and catchup lol

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 06:59

Hmm, is your cycle always spot on 27 days or does it vary sometimes?

DizzyKipper · 21/04/2011 06:57

Oh no Griselda, but hopefully Easter Sunday you will have the best start to the day.

Usually have around 27 day cycle although it varies. FF thinks I'm.due tomorrow which would be ?14dpo but only cd24! Yes rise early to pray with Dh before he leaves for work at 6.45. I don't have to rise til about 7 so have a bit of time to comment/browse.
Getting up early to pray sounds like we're scary intense religious people! We are Christians but hopefully not too scary! Just a positive way to start the day :-)

Nice to see another habitual early riser, btw!

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 06:39

CD 42, equalling my longest recent cycle. So I guess really I could potentially just count myself as overdue from tomorrw, and then perhaps test on Easter Day or something. Boobs still sore this morning.

God, I feel gloomy this time. I think the tiny faint line had caused me a bit more optimism than usual. Am lying on the sofa whilst DP is still asleep, and thinking grumpy thoughts.

Fingers tightly crossed for you though. All sounds quite hopeful! When is your period due?

Ah boo Griselda! What cd are you on now?
Yes chart shifting is good, also note usually have drop below cover line a couple of days before af arrives, now am still above! Revert to plan a poas Saturday am if af doesn't arrive. I feel sick (as soon as I stand) bit really don't feel like af will arrive any time soon!

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 06:08

Congrats that your chart has shifted back to where you want it to be!

PatientGriselda · 21/04/2011 06:06

Bfn for me this morning. Not even a hint of a line this time :(

Bexamundo · 21/04/2011 06:04

You're right, going by.my pre-nocturnal wee temp it has adjusted my ff ovulation day back to day 10. Which is good because it means I was having symptims from 5dpo not day of ovulation (which would be weird!). Hmm will def be watching and waiting tomorrow.
