Fantastic! Congrats Hannah :-)

Have a fabulous holiday.

HannahJayne · 28/10/2012 04:08

Erm... This morning, at 3am, I got a BFP. A bit dazed, but happy.

[giggles and runs off on holiday]

HannahJayne · 27/10/2012 22:18

Thanks! Pretty much packed. All I have to do is set an alarm for 3am (thank goodness for daylight saving time)!

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 27/10/2012 19:17

1 more sleep till sunshine Hannah!! Have a fab holiday!

HannahJayne · 26/10/2012 10:01

Thanks! After the BFN on Tuesday I was resigned to it not being my month, hence the tampax and the conceive plus purchases, but then a little bit of hope creeps in, and I'm just waiting for it to be obliterated. Maybe when I finish work today I'll relax and I won't have to put myself through POAS. Grrrr (but two more sleeps to sunshine)

Thundernonk · 26/10/2012 09:25

Messes with your head, TTC, doesn't it? Fx for Sunday, but good to have the holiday as a nice distraction if af gets you.

HannahJayne · 26/10/2012 09:21

No thunder, not tested since Tuesday and my BFN. Will see what happens and will test on Sunday before I go on holiday if nothing by then. I think it's probably just stress.

Thundernonk · 26/10/2012 08:27

Have you tested again, hannah?

MrsBri · 26/10/2012 07:45

The sods' law of TTC strikes again, Hannah :-( I hope you're out of limbo soon.

HannahJayne · 26/10/2012 07:38

Lol I wondered where you were up to. It'll be our month next month. When I bought tampax yesterday I bought conceive plus 'to cheer myself up'. Tragic.

HannahJayne · 26/10/2012 07:36

So, I'm late. And no cramps yet, which I always get at least a day before AF. I've had a horrible couple of weeks at work, so I'm putting it down to stress. But flipping heck - the one month I need it to come and go so I can get it over with before I go on holiday, this happens. Argh.

MrsBri · 25/10/2012 20:04

Sorry, Lol :-( But at least your cycles are regulating now. Fx.

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 25/10/2012 19:01

Sorry lol, fx for next cycle.

Thundernonk · 25/10/2012 15:24

Sorry hannah and lol

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 25/10/2012 10:01

[hgrin]

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 25/10/2012 10:00

Oh sorry for you AF lol - but as you say, at least you have a regular cycle so will be able to try again soon. - I'm sure I will be in the same position in a week!

PFN are too depressing, so I will wait until the Saturday I think as AF is due Halloween! which also happens to be our 9 year anniversary together :) so don't want that ruined with a -ve.

Good luck with your 2ww Raspberrys! Stay strong and away from those sticks!

Lolcbcblemonlime · 25/10/2012 07:58

I've gone quiet as I was driving myself insane. Ended 2ww today with af right on time. At least my cycle seems to be regular again.

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 25/10/2012 07:37

I've just started the 2ww!! It remains to be seen if I can wait 2 weeks before poas!! Grin

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 24/10/2012 09:27

lol Thank you! I wont loose hope just yet then!

Hopfully my BFP is just making a very civilised entry lol :)

I've still got another week or so to go, do we have anyone else waiting to test?

MrsBri · 24/10/2012 07:20

Oh yes...my boobs are taking over the world. Forgot that one!

They were sore from pre-OV, so I refused to look at them as a symptom. After OV they got a bit heavier and larger. Since the BFP they've been making a bid for freedom! Much bigger and much heavier. And sore to touch the sides.

I may keep prodding them to check!

MrsBri · 24/10/2012 07:17

Before my BFP I had a little burping, distinctly less CM than the 2 previous months I'm sure I ovulated and a head cold.

I had to take a sprint to the loo 8dpo because I thought I was going to throw up.

Have slept badly since 8dpo too. Still do.

The day before my BFP we were meeting friends and I just could not face beer (my poor baby, I turned to fruit cider instead!).

Since the BFP, occasional nausea, but not often and I'm not sick, still windy at both ends, ha ha! A bit crampy too.

I am a little constipated, but nothing like Pear.

Weird bloody dreams almost every night.

But I'm not feeling too bad. Having said that, I've not been at work, so getting back into the swing of it will be interesting and show my true levels of tiredness.

peardrop2 · 24/10/2012 03:05

Block DPO 1 I recorded bright orange FMU and slight burping, then nothing until DPO 8 when I recorded burping and slight tingly boobs and then on DPO 9 I recorded still burpy and felt like something was stuck in my throat (you know the feeling). DPO 10 still burpy. DPO 11 woke up with v bad constipation and got BFP. Hope that helps?! TG for Period App to help me remember ;-) Remember that everyone is different. I've not read of anyone on MN who's suffered with constipation quite as bad as I've experienced but I haven't had any MS so you get good and bad :-)

BlocketteBananaSmoothie · 23/10/2012 22:25

Thank you, - anyway, moving on!

Any already pg ladies not really feel any symptoms? I have a tiny bit of back ache, and feel slightly sicky (could be making it up in hope) on and off, but mainly in the evening, my one boob boobs did tingle a bit early but has stopped now - but apart from that I actually feel quite well, which is dampening my hopes tbh :(

Did anyone else feel pretty much ok in their 2ww, but still got a bfp? hopes

RaspberrysAndIcecream · 23/10/2012 18:56

That's really hard to get ur head around Block, and must be so very hard for M.
No wonder u were so upset, I think ttc makes u really think through life, I must have thought through our future so many times.

peardrop2 · 23/10/2012 17:36

Block that's really shocking. As MrsBri says not surprising how you feel at all. Sad for M :-(
