I am at the start of the 2WW and planning to test around the 11th August. This is my first proper month trying to concieve following a MMC in April. I am already so nervous/excited and just wish I could fast forward!!!!! Anyone else at the start of their 2WW? Hoping for lots of BFPs!! xx

Ooh I've been light headed! Also bad reflux and awful skin.break out.

LittleDragon · 04/08/2011 19:40

I've had next to no appetite all day as well as nausea on and off all day. I also went very light-headed this afternoon. Also cramping on my right hand side this afternoon. Also had metallic taste all day.

Sorry to hear that mommy.
I'm sitting on my hands! I'm about 11dpo but because my cycles are quite irregular af could come as soon as Saturday or as late as this time next week! Think I'll test early next week...

mammyemcbe · 04/08/2011 16:37

Thanks monty I couldnt help myself getting a test then I was raging when I got bfn . I'm gonna wait til af is due and see what happens . I'll put it out of my mind til then (yeah right)Smile fingers crossed for everyone elseGrin

montymum · 04/08/2011 15:20

Mammy 4 days early lots of people don't get BFP will keep everything crossed for you. Figaro I didn't get any symptoms before when I was pregnant in fact I once got to 11 weeks (crazy as it sounds obviously wasn't ttc at the time!) and still had no idea until it all went wrong- so no early symptoms doesn't necessarily mean no hope xx
Saying that when I had an achy left breast early in the week I was convinced!!

Figaro82 · 04/08/2011 14:49

Hi monty!!! Come and ramble to us!!! As I'm sure you will see we have all well and truly been symptom spotting. Mine have all pretty much gone so not feeling as hopeful today :(

Mammy it's still quite early. Try and test in a few days time! Fx for you!

Figaro82 · 04/08/2011 14:12

Let us know Carrie how you get on. If its a BFP it would make me tempted to try testing on Sunday!

Can i join too please you all seem like lovely ladies so lets hope for lots of BFP's, I plan to test on the 10th and have been driving myself mad symptom spotting- which have now all disappeared so thinking the worst- not sure how I have only just spotted this thread because I have been on mumsnet daily looking for people in the same situation so I don't go mad in the 2ww- haven't told anyone in RL we are ttc after we had 3 mc a couple of years ago- so poor DH is the currently taking the brunt of all my am I aren't I ramblings !

Good luck tomorrow Wild! Let us know your result! I look forward to toasting your BFP with my glass of orange!!

I am in a foul mood today :(. I am not feeling as confident. I also have lots of CM and I don't know what thats all about!

Figaro I know exactly how you feel - I have had that problem over the past couple of weeks at drinks / dinners. My approach has been to simply not drink alcohol, and so far no one has commented. Having drinks that look like they could have alcohol in them is a good option (coke as you say, or juice - orange or tomato). And you could always just have a few sips of a glass of wine.

Welcome littledragon, dreamermama and mammy! I think this is a great thread, and we have had some amusing symptom spotting already. I have a new one today: I have developed some mouth ulcers. Horrible I know... but surely it must mean something!

Planning to test tomorrow morning so we will see.

Figaro82 · 04/08/2011 11:11

Actually ladies I need some advice. Its my Best Friends wedding tomorrow and I am not sure what to do on the alcohol front. I usually like a drink (or 2!) so everyone will guess why I am not drinking and will assume I am already pregnant. We had told all our friends I was pregnant a few days before my 12 week scan when we found out our baby had stopped growing. We dont want to tell anyone this time and I cant bare the thought of people asking me tomorrow!! I am thinking maybe a couple of white wine spritzers and cokes which I can pretend have vodka in??? What do you think ladies???

Welcome littledragon and dreamermama!!! We only have a week to go now!

Dreamer - I got the Internet cheapies from amazon. You can test as much as you want without the guilt as they are so cheap!! I know what you meanabout worrying. I had a MMC in April and I know when I get a BFP I will worry about it happening again!

OP posts:
Dreamermama · 04/08/2011 01:57

I'm going to be testing August 11 as well!!
Figaro, where did you get the Internet cheapies??
I'm so scared though because I MC July 13, the bleeding stopped in only 3 days and I ovulated about 2 weeks later. My dr said we could ttc right away but I still have alot of worries as to wether my next pregnancy will go well :( I just hope it catches and the baby stays sticky this time

LittleDragon · 03/08/2011 23:26

Hi can i join? Af is due 11th so will test if she doesn't show.

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 18:15

Mammy- not too long to go. I'm not due till the 11th, but I know I'll be testing before!!! Fx is implantation bleeding!

Piglet- you should keep wild company and test tomorrow! Lol!!! Don't blame you for waiting, wish I had the willpower!!

OP posts:
mammyemcbe · 03/08/2011 18:12

Thanks figaro I'm due the 8th and I'm sending myself mad trying to see symptoms . I had implantation bleeding with ds2 but I'm trying not to convince myself that I am incase I'm not ( that even sounds mad )

Piglet28 · 03/08/2011 18:06

Hi, thank you all for welcoming me!

Mammy - could it be implantation spotting?

Wild - good luck with testing, lets hope its the first bfp of many!

Have - Oooh cramping very good sign! I've had this for 3 days on and off and also skipped gym (too piggin hot anyway!)

My pee sticks arrived early in the post today, sooooo tempted to accidently wee on one but i'm going to wait til Saturday as will get a def answer... hate seeing BFN so would rather hold it off as long as poss!

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 18:05

Welcome Mammy!!! When are you due??? I know what you mean about driving yourself crazy!!!

Havealittlefaith - I can't even be bothered to walk to the gym, let alone excercise!!!! Fingers crossed on the cramping!!!

I still have cramping and lots of twinges. I never get this even when my AF arrives and I'm sure I had this when I was pregnant before early on. I'm so hopefull, but praying it doesn't end in a BFN. Will be gutted now that I'm convinced I'm pregnant!!!

mammyemcbe · 03/08/2011 17:56

Hi can I join too

I'm currently driving myself demented with symptoms / not symptoms Sad had light spotting over the weekend and am now just feeling crap . Am gonna wait till sat to test if I can make it that far Wink

havealittlefaithbaby · 03/08/2011 17:48

Good luck testing wild!

havealittlefaithbaby · 03/08/2011 17:47

I had af-like cramping today, thought it was odd but then it stopped. Obviously implantation cramping! Couldn't run at the gym, too painful! :)

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 16:55

We are not 'having to put up with you'! It's great to have people to talk to about all the things you wouldn't normally discuss with other people (cm, toilet issues etc!!) and to share the journey!

If your going to test then at least wait till the morning so you have your fmu. I wouldn't blame you gor testing early!!! Will be keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!!
