Anyone want to join me at the start of another 2 ww?

Hi
Sorry am lurking Mainly because I am sulking about having to wait. Nothing to report here although can convince myself I have any number of symptoms. Eat your heart out Derren Brown. Not cracked and bought test though can't see my self restraint holding out for very long.

Good luck to all testing - fingers crossed for bfps aplenty!

I'm day 24 and not feeling any positive vibes. I've kept away from the tests, I intend to wait for the slim chance that I'm late. Good luck to anyone testing today x

Hello all,

ElmMum I agree with your sentiment about not feeling pregnant, but really, really hoping.

I am knackered and the weird metallicy taste is still there, but that my be an after effect of my tonsillitis and antibiotics.

I was also really, really grumpy this morning which could be pms.

No sore boobs and no getting up to pee in the night, which was the only sign of pg last time round.

I am CD25, so I think my period is actually due on Sunday 3rd! I can't believe having to wait another day. Although I have cracked and ordered some internet cheapies, both from Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.fr (I live in France). I am going to erm, experiment and see which ones are more effective. They should be here tomorrow (which means I can't test until Friday unless I can hold my wee in until the postman arrives!)

Rather embarrassingly the Amazon.fr hpts come from a 3rd party supplier which is a sex-shop (I hadn't realised on ordering) - I had an email to say that an account has been created with them. DH got very excited, thinking I was ordering some sexy lingerie.

Thanks elmmum, I shall wait. Besides, though I'm pretty sure my cycle is 28 days, I don't normally keep track so if it is 30 days then I'm due today so not actually late until tomorrow.

However, if I got a positive result, at whatever time of day I would definitely believe it!

Anyone else a bit worried about jeans or belts digging into your stomach? I think I'm getting a bit too obsessed as for the last 2 days when I've been at home I've had my jeans button and belt undone so as not to put pressure on a developing baby if one exists. I need to get a grip!

Morning all. Thanks pinkpony but no news, good or bad. No bfp but no period either, which I suppose is good news really. I didnt go into town yesterday but I've been in this morning and I got a clearblue test which says is effective 4 days before a missed period so hopefully will pick up if I am pregnant. Someone please tell me to wait and use it first thing tomorrow morning when hormone levels are best detected, otherwise I'll use it today and it probably won't work. Although, saying that the cheap wilko tests probably have been working, it's just that I'm not actually pregnant!

I'm still getting slight cramps but they're more like how I often feel in the middle of a cycle when I presume I'm ovulating. No real pregnancy symptoms though occasionally I feel a little dizzy but think it's possible that I'm imagining that!

im now waiting for the postman to bring me my first response tests so i can test tomorrow morning, but to be honest i dont "feel" pregnant.

|"Weird how I can on the one hand really feel that I'm not pg. But on the other hand, really have hope that I might be. Two completely contradictory feelings but one isn't over riding the other." elmmum
this is exactly how i feel at the mo!

Morning

Sims any news? have everything crossed for you.

fidgetpie I'm also trying to see if I can wait till the 13th to test, the logical part of my brain says to wait, the impatient side says to test this weekend, I just keep arguing with myself as like ElmMum I'm not sure if I can cope with not knowing.

So far my pregnancy symptoms are weird abdominal twinges and I'm knackered. Have actually been getting nearly 7 1/2 hours of sleep each night (normally awake between 3-5) I'm sure this is nothing to do with the fact that I've cut down on caffeine and alchohol!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you sims2fan

Well, I am one step closer to POAS, as I have ordered some cheapy early preg tests off the internet (eBay) - i initially spent a fortune, when trying for DD1, on ovulation tests & preg tests till I discovered them online. So they should be here at the weekend - however I am going to (try to) wait till my due day (13th)... We'll see...

I had forgotten how slow the 2ww feels

I'm just off to bed, and so far no period. It's kind of odd that yesterday and sunday I had loads of period type feelings, whereas today I have had far fewer. That doesn't normally happen. Normally I will feel like my period is about to start, then it does within 24 hours and gradually the pains go away. Occasionally I have started when due but with no real pains beforehand, and then the pains start. But I don't think I have ever experienced pains, then fewer pains, then period starting. But this will probably be the first time of that happening!

I just thought to myself 'as far as I know I'm never late' but then realised that I am not normally desperate to be pregnant and for a period to not arrive, so it's probably stress and excitement keeping it at bay! The last time stress managed to hold off my periods I was 16 and I managed to get through my whole GCSE exams for about 2 months without a period. About the only time my periods have worked in my favour!

I will test again first thing in the morning and post again. Fingers crossed!

just tested your theory by googling pregnancy and smelly feet (1st thing that popped into my head) and whod have thought it but apparently pregnancy makes ur feet whiff. PoinT proved pommedc

If you google pregnancy plus anything you can find a link. have just tried it with both farting and mouth ulcers.

I am both farty and burpy. But I am blaming all the sniffing I am doing with my cold. I think I am taking in loads of extra air and it has to come out somewhere!

hahaha are you sure you havent had a sprouts n cabbage fest?

Cracked and tested - negative.
Have asked dh to pick up more tests tomorrow as I can't at my work.
Also - and I know this is a bit tmi but am really farty! Can you imagine farting?! The power of the mind is incredible.

I'm not expecting a BFP, or at least not one that lasts, so even if I get one, I won't be getting excited. I've had implantation bleeding, nausea, metallic taste, all sorts of symptoms before and am still bumpless. This is just an experiment to try to help people figure out what is happening.

LOL re guzzling wine! not tonight but eating DS1's easter egg :-)

I have 4 first response tests in my cupbpard and am going to try and wait until AF due before using but can tell you now I will fail!

Shimery- big congrats! Sims- not sure about wilkos tests, have always fond FR ones brilliant, had BFP with last pregncy 5 days before AF was due with those.

Eurochick- its still early and loads of time for BFP to appear :-)

stay away from those tests ladies!

DPO9 and another unsurprising negative for me. Although when I went back to put it in the bin 10 or 15 mins after I read it, I thought I could see a faint line but as it was after the 5 mins reading time I am calling it as an evap line. This is only my second ever internet cheapy so I am still getting used to them!

Hi ladies, sorry i dissapeared! just a quick one to say i'm due 11th mat i think- will update later!
