Hear ya too red I found the one year anniversary difficult so we went to the Maldives telling ourselves we wouldn't be able to do that with kids to try and cheer ourselves up! Try and enjoy your hols, I actually felt a million times better when I was there. And you might have a holiday BFP.

On my way to the hospital for my follicle scan, fingers crossed my ovaries can be arsed to actually produce an egg for once

Red - I hear ya sister xx

Can't believe it's almost coming up to a year. Never thought I'd be here when I started ttc.

Weirdly just feel numb as I wasn't expecting it but a tiny part of me wished the sore boobs meant something else this month.

I know a lot of you here have been ttc for almost 2 years just don't know how much more I can take.

Looking forward to my holiday this month and hoping for a bfp at the end of it now. Not much else I can do but hope.

Sorry red x

resipsa · 03/03/2013 21:39

Sorry red. It probably doesn't help you but I got BFP for DD on cycle 11...

Hi when - definitely lie re bleeding if you want a scan now. You need the reassurance.

Thingymajigs · 03/03/2013 21:11

So sorry red. Sad Hope cycle 11 will be your lucky one. I've had cramping today so I assume AF will arrive on Thursday too. Why on earth do we need to cramp when we aren't even on our period? I even get it during ovulation, absolutely pointless.

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 03/03/2013 20:56

Hi res not doing too bad. Feeling tired and nauseous, then the symptoms disappear for a few hours and I panic.
I actually considered faking bleeding to try and get an earlier scan, have to wait another 11 days till my scan. I'm clearly going crazy.

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 03/03/2013 20:53

Sorry red it really sucks. Sad

Best of luck with the scan alex

mazzie fx for you. I had quite bad af like pains before af was due so good luck.

Alexandra6 · 03/03/2013 19:37

Boo red that bloody witch, really sorry she got you. This waiting game is torture sometimes! Hope cycle 11 is your BFP cycle x

RedRobin1 · 03/03/2013 19:30

Started spotting. Looks like AF will arrive on cue Tue. Roll on cycle 11 Sad

Ha no different initials, we must both have psychic friends! Wish she'd hurry up and have a dream about me getting preggers Wink

Good luck Kerry, mazzie, red and everyone else. Will let you know if I've managed to grow a nice juicy follie for my scan tomorrow

resipsa · 03/03/2013 14:03

Fx for you red & thingy

Alex your psychic friend's initials aren't KK, are they? I have a friend who says and dreamt the same!

Good luck too to anyone else in 2WW and/or testing?

Anymore weird dreams to share?

Hope all lurking grads doing well.

KerryJewels · 03/03/2013 11:43

I hope this is your month Mazzie!Thanks for the well wishes..I hope so too:)It's only month four but feels like I need a break from all this endless lovin!!

RedRobin1 · 03/03/2013 11:23

I do get sore boobs most cycles thingy and they disappear when AF arrives. Oh well 3 more days to go.

Good luck kerry fx for that bfp.

alex I will be trying the grow-follies-grow method next month. Fx for your scan tomorrow.

Thank you ladies :). I have decided to leave testing till 2mrw, with having this backache & sideache I keep thinking I'm going to have af any minuite now. I'm going to the bathroom every so often thinking it's here but it's jst a watery like cm, oh the patience that goes into ttc lol it's blinkin hard!! X

Thingymajigs · 03/03/2013 05:47

Do you often get sore boobs red? I get them before AF starts but every time I still wonder if its a pregnancy sign. But if you don't normally get them it could be a good sign.
I had another pregnancy dream which bizarrely turned into a world war 3 epic towards the end, (apparently we should be wary of the French). :/ It's odd because I'm not even thinking about the tww but perhaps subconsciously it's bugging me a lot.
kerry, fingers crossed for you. Hopefully the clomid has worked it's magic this cycle.
Alex, regardless of how effective that is it sounds very relaxing. I'll be doing that next cycle just for the relaxation. "Sorry DP, I can't possibly help with dinner, I'm nurturing my follies."
Good luck mazzie. I get scared of testing too so I know how you feel. Really hope you get your BFP.

twinklestar2 · 02/03/2013 22:33

Good luck Mazzie!!

mazzie40 · 02/03/2013 21:06

Hi ladies. I'm on cd31 due,thinking of testing 2mrw. The last week I've had backache & the last 4 days it's been quite painful. I have had other syptoms but I'm thinking they're all in my head lol. I know when 2mrw comes I will be really scared of testing, if af doesn't arrive. I really don't know if I believe af will come & the backache is going into my sides aswell. I have never had backache like this before af but it could be due to the clomid?. My cycles are between 28 & 31 days, I suppose the next couple of days will tell :). Have a good weekend ladies :) x

Grin At Alex

Alexandra6 · 02/03/2013 18:43

thingy your dream made me laugh! I had a dream I got pregnant and then gave birth...to a cat! Not quite the result I was hoping for. Maybe I'll be a crazy cat lady instead!

One of my friends had a dream about another of my friends getting pregnant...the other friend got her BFP straight after! She claims she's always been a "little bit psychic" hmm.

Day 18 scan on Monday...come on follies, grow! I found a website which says you can get your follies to grow by putting a hot water bottle on your belly, and keeping your legs in the air (to encourage blood flow). Sounds ridiculous right? but of course I'm doing it right now

KerryJewels · 02/03/2013 18:36

*symptoms....

KerryJewels · 02/03/2013 18:32

I'm in the 2ww also...no symtoms..no sore boobies..no nausea...my AF should arrive on 3/10.Well the only thing I can note is a very heavy,bloated abdomen..but that could be from the Clomid.Hoping we are all blessed with beautiful,healthy babies in our own perfect time..sooner than later! I do have crazy strange dreams lately..esspecially since the Clomid...O and I wanted to tell you guys too that with my other pregnancies the earliest I noticed any symptoms was three weeks along...so don't lose hope:)

RedRobin1 · 02/03/2013 10:43

I love reading about weird dreams do share thingy Grin

I think the 2ww is much calmer this time as I am not expecting to get my bfp soon. Just sore boobs still here. Feel totally like AF will make an appearance.

OP posts:
Thingymajigs · 02/03/2013 09:39

Yes I am! A BFP would do nicely right about now. I think I've possibly been pushing myself a bit too hard lately which could be the cause of the crazy dreams but maybe just maybe...

kittykatsforever · 02/03/2013 08:55

Thingy are you in the 2ww, my only symptom this time was mad strange dreams every night Wink
