So this morning I have stocked up on Superdrug tests and a first response oh and Ocado are bring me a CB Dig lol! I know I shouldn't but have decided to test everyday until AF arrives/Is due! John is very adamant that we are not trying for another baby as we have 3 DS's but I would love one more so wish me luck :) If AF shows up I have to get the coil fitted :(

Ratata So sorry for your loss good luck this cycle x

Welcome idratherbe :)

Grin shag dictator

Sorry for your loss in Dec. That CBFM gets amazing reviews on amazon. Hope it works for you.

Idratherbe · 02/07/2012 11:49

I'm not sure if I'm testing next week but I'll definitely be knicker checking so can I join you? I'm on day 22 of a 30 day cycle, using CBFM so i know i OV'd on day 15. A bit of back story - I have 1 DS who is 2 and had a MC at 8 weeks in December. We've been trying since with zero luck - this month is our first with the shag dictator so I'm quietly hopeful. I sham't be testing until I'm very late as (a) I can't face another negative and (b) I'll be on holiday next week without readily available tests. That's my plan anyway!

Symptoms that are different this month? Sharp stabbing pain in right ovary 2 days ago and random cramps in the same area on and off since, dizzy spell last night.

Don't the days just crawl by?!

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 02/07/2012 08:52

ratata so sorry about your mmc, it must have been heart wrenching. Do you mind if I ask if you had strong pregnancy symptoms during that pregnancy?

Am not surprised you got a bfn, it is far too early to test. Fx for you

Ratata · 01/07/2012 23:28

It means missed miscarriage. I thought I was 9 weeks pregnant, went for an early private scan all excited and watched the screen to see my baby. Only there was nothing there. I measured 5 weeks. An internal scan a week later confirmed that there was a yolk sac and nothing else. I started bleeding a few days later and lost it. It was awful but yeah, just had to deal with it. It was what I dreaded. Just gotta keep on going though.

I already cracked with a first response knowing its far too early!! Got my Internet cheapies for the week. May as well test each morning just in case. I'm impatient lol.

Right there with you in the driving us nuts part!!!

Ava1985 · 01/07/2012 23:22

Ratata sorry to ask but what does mmc mean? I assume it means a miscarriage..? If so I am so sorry to hear that :( I hope the nxt pregnancy is a healthy one for you. I remember that going through my head last time too and im sure it will again next time its a natural fear I guess :( I really want to wait until 12dpo to test but I know im gonna crack at 10! (with internet cheapies) tempted to buy a first respone at 12DPO though!! Agh! Im just going to have to not try nxt month cos this is driving me nuts already!!

I'm 8 or 9dpo. I'm unsure of my cycle really so going on estimation. The mmc threw my cycle out of whack.

I'm nervous about everything. I was terrified when I was pregnant before about having a mmc and then I had one. It was heartbreaking but I guess you just deal with it at the time. Let's hope for BFPs and healthy pregnancies Smile

Christelle2207 · 01/07/2012 22:52

Yes. However I think I had a cp a few months back- I didn't test as I was on hols and was going to test when I got home which would have been 9days late- but got a horrible AF on the plane home!! Looking back I had all kinds of symptoms and I'm now almost convinced that I was pg. as upsetting as it would have been to know it at the time though I almost wish I had had a BFP so I would at least have known for sure that I can conceive.
This cycle the plan is to wait until overdue - I am due thurs or fri so plan is to test on sat id no AF. But of course I may crack before then!

Ava1985 · 01/07/2012 22:46

Also just a quick one and maybe totally off subject to this thread but... Do any of you feel a little nervous about testing too early incase it turns to be a chem pregnancy? Iv never experienced one but it seems they are very common.. Just put me in two minds as to when to test!

OP posts:
Ava1985 · 01/07/2012 22:41

Ratata how many dpo are you now? I wondered if it could be implantation cramps but apparently its too early for that at 5dpo.. I am 6dpo and just having the usual symptoms coming upto AF from today. But yes heres hoping for those BFP's all round lets make it a record lol

OP posts:
Ratata · 01/07/2012 22:35

Right I feel nauseous and I have heartburn and constipation (constipation is not normal for me). I have now decided that I'm pregnant. Obviously have to wait to know for sure but I just feel it. Maybe if I tell my body enough it will magically be pregnant?! Haha.

Ratata · 01/07/2012 22:08

I had cramps at 5dpo as well Ava1985 we shall see! I'm hoping for a full thread of BFPs... Hey, it could happen!

Ava1985 · 01/07/2012 21:38

ohh it all sounds very promising for us all so far (symptom wise!) I had some period like cramping yesterday (5DPO) but then maybe I get that every month but just don't notice it! Really hope this is it for us all! We should keep this thread alive and kicking until we get our results! At least one of us has to be in for some good news to share.....?!

Ratata · 01/07/2012 19:42

Hello all, I'm testing on Friday the 6th. Also a symptom spotter!! Creamy cm, cramping a couple of days ago and nausea the last couple of days. I had a mmc around 9 weeks ago so fingers crossed Smile

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 01/07/2012 17:43

Christelle I forgot to say I also had back ache, just felt like muscular pain / period pain from 5weeks to 8 weeks pregnant. Apparently it is just the uterus stretching out to make room for the embryo.

Think you are right about this being a symptom spotting thread, I am only 2 DPO and my nipples are really sore. must stop obessing

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 01/07/2012 17:37

seat I had spd (it is also know as pelvic girdle pain Christelle).

I only got mine from week 15 onwards, was gutted I had only just got over the morning sickness / epic tiredness. Poor you getting it before implantation. Are you nervous about another pregnancy, I hear it can be worse second time round.

I really want a baby but I am just remembering how much I hated being pregnant 1st time round.

Christelle2207 · 01/07/2012 16:45

I think this is a symptom spotting thread- love it!!

Christelle2207 · 01/07/2012 16:44

Oh bum what is spd? Good I suppose that it can be a good sign tho!

seatfor5 · 01/07/2012 16:42

With DS2 i had back ache from 4DPO and it didnt go until I had him as it turned into SPD! It is a hormone thing your body relaxes muscles :)

Christelle2207 · 01/07/2012 10:59

seat and when regarding this backache what does it feel like, stupid question I know.
I have backache and I never have backache- does feel like I naggered it lifting something it i haven't lifted anything. Mostly down the bottom but now further up. Anyone know what could cause backache in pg this early on? I just don't get it, is it perhaps just hormonal?

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHorrid · 01/07/2012 08:29

I got implantation cramps last month, it turned out to be a chemical pregnancy but it definitely happened. I also had a tiny amount of blood (I went looking for it - sorry tmi). This was all 8dpo.

The cramps felt like period pain, which for me is in my lower back. Fx there is something implanting for you both.

I'm only 2/3 DPO.

Christelle2207 · 30/06/2012 22:58

Think I'm 5dpo!

Newbie2 · 30/06/2012 22:28

I will be testing 6 days early on Monday 2nd July...to be honest I have so many cheapie tests I'll probably test every morning next week

Newbie2 · 30/06/2012 22:26

Hello Christelle I've had terrible low back pain today! What DPO are you? I'm 6DPO

Christelle2207 · 30/06/2012 22:24

I am also aiming to test on the 7th if I haven't gone stir crazy, or had a visit from AF by then. Only hitch is that dh is away for the weekend so if there was good news I'd have to tell mumsnettors before him! Hence may try testing on the 6th.

Have pain in small of my back today, is that good?? I'm TTC #1 so don't know it feels. TTC for 8 months now. Sad

Good luck all x
