Who's testing round about 21st of July? Fancy being mental together?

Ok so best guess is OV sometime in the past 3 days. Should really wait until 21st to test going by previous cycle length.

I'm not a good 2 week waiter. Am impatient and mental and a particularly avid symptom spotter. Please come and keep me company in this fortnight of doom...........

It took me over 18 months to conceive dd then I got pg before af had even started back with the 2 random shags so these things do happen! Smile
Hoping it won't take too long this time

sneezecake · 14/07/2012 08:04

We've only done it twice too but once on the 6th and once on the 8th think I ovulated on the 10th so maybe but I don't think so, think I'm expecting too much, have only just started trying this month, it took 4 months to drop on with ds and that was with a lot of shagging !

kittykatsforever · 13/07/2012 21:38

Sneeze- dpo2, that's got to be a record!!!
What were you thinking Smile
Why have you not dtd enough, last time I got pg I had only dtd twice that month!

sneezecake · 13/07/2012 21:25

Im tourturing myself by POAS too early did one today (only ovulated on Wednesday) and walking through the baby isles in sainsbury's I don't think we DTD enough to be pregnant, but will test on the 23rd anyway that is if AF hasn't made an appearance.
Loving all the unusual pregnancy symptoms!

Testing on Monday at either 11 or 12 DPO. If body is playing tricks am going to be in an even fouler mood than normal on Monday!

Having said that am now seriously considering POAS on Sunday as a bit of 'warm-up'. Mental moi??????

Hi camel, no cb digi opk just measure lh surge but they are not ambiguous they give you a Smile when your most fertile!
I wish I had more symptoms but just a cough! I'm so tempted to test this wkend even though ov may only have been yesterday lol
Can't have lovely hot bath ( for fear of killing sperm and I'm not doing it again!) so consoling myself with biscuit and beer Grin

DulcetMoans · 13/07/2012 20:17

Oooh cb freebies sound good. Do cb digi OV sticks measure 2 different things like the CBFM?

I am seriously falling apart if not PG! boobs are also as big as they normally are during AF with approx 6-8 days to go. God I'm going to be SO disappointed if these symptoms are all in my head......

I do have it...a Bedford number. I'll call them on Monday morning. Assuming I still need them :-)

kittykatsforever · 13/07/2012 19:34

Nicola if you have the number on your phone I'd ring back Monday, if you dont have it I can on you with the one on mine. I'm sure they would get back to you at some point if they've phoned once x

NicolaHazel · 13/07/2012 19:33

Well, exactly, kitty :-)

EVERYTHING is an early pregnancy symptom according to Google!!

kittykatsforever · 13/07/2012 19:32

Nicola that's because your allready preggo, not needed see!! Smile
Hard stomac! Not sure that means anything, defo not a contraction but I'm sure if you google it it will be a pregnancy symptom somewhere! Welcome to the club Grin

washngo · 13/07/2012 18:55

OK, think this is a bit odd, but my lower tummy about 5 days ago went all hard, like a contraction. Didn't hurt, just suddenly went hard? Does this mean anything? If so what does this meeeeaaaaannn? Was it just a bit of undigested cake working it's way round? Can't see myself holding off testing for a whole WEEK (and a bit!)!

NicolaHazel · 13/07/2012 17:37

They haven't bothered ringing me back :-(

Hello ladies

Well this cold isn't going anywhere. I feel awful today. On the plus side have a new totally crackers symptom for you all......

.....Achey armpits anyone!?!?!?!?!

OP posts:
NicolaHazel · 13/07/2012 08:07

My AF is the same...I cramp exactly as it starts and finish abruptly too!

I just feel a bit odd really. But there's loads of germs going round our office, so I suppose it could be that. If I'm going to be rational about it.

More CM today, tinged slightly with pink. Not sure that's a good sign!

kittykatsforever · 13/07/2012 08:03

Nicola I have had it before but only while pg with dd and about 6-8 wks in, not too sure, and when I say sore still not really I.e I hadn't linked it to being pregnant, I just thought they had gone bigger and once or twice they felt abit tingely, and that was literally the only thing I had and that was only once or twice!
If I got it though I souls defo think I was pg though as never had it at any other time, my af is a hit and run, no warning!!
