Pregoween is getting nearer, come on bfp's clearer and clearer!

Great stats Teenie thank you for those, it's always useful to look at other people's symptoms etc.

Katy, when we first started ttc I took vitabiotics pregnacare but they made me feel awful and gave me loads of 'symptoms'. I know a lot of other ladies on here have found the same so I can't recommend them. Maybe sanatogen or seven seas? I just take things separately now which I find suits me...folic acid, vitamin d, omega 3, berocca and then epo before ov.

Hi Ladies

Ok quick question for you all. Which pre conception multi vits. I have been taking just folic acid and vit d but I think im going to switch - any views?

Hi ladies! Thank you all so much for the congrats, as you can imagine I’ve had alot to think about in the past few hours, my head is spinning! I feel very, very lucky (and a little bit guilty if I’m honest) to have gotten my BFP so early on as I know a lot of you have been here for some time. You have been a great support to me the last few months and I have been on mn every day to see how you are all getting on. I will be keeping my eye on the Pregtober and Pregvember buses so I can check up with how you are all doing and shake my poms poms every now and then, I hope that’s ok

Here are my stats -

teeniedeenie34, age 34, ttc#1, cycle#3

Came off Mercilon b/c pill 27th July and started Sanatogen ‘Mum To Be’ prenatal vitamins the next day and been taking them daily since.

Cycle 3 - We DTD CDs 10, 13, 14, 16 & 18. I was struggling to get a positive OPK this month so it is possible I missed ovulation, however I think it may have been around CD18/19.

Symptoms – I have basically been cramping since 3dpo and felt awful by 5dpo so I kept a diary of what was going on in case I needed it for the doctor -

1-2dpo – Nothing.
3dpo – Started to get slight AF like cramps but didn’t make sense as it would have been a week early.
4dpo – AF like cramps again.
5dpo – AF like cramps, bloated, exhausted by 3pm, have a large meal at night, jeans feel tight, feel really uncomfortable sitting down, constipated and look tired.
6dpo – Bad AF cramps, was sure it was going to arrive, felt terrible after eating lunch, bloated, jeans tight and uncomfortable. Shivery and cramping by 5pm, took paracetamol and spent night lying with blanket on couch. Felt awful.
7dpo – Woke at 6am with cramps, bloated, ‘bubbly’ tummy, can’t get comfortable lying on my stomach in bed, feel too hot.
8dpo – Cramps subsided but feel like I have a stitch in my side when walking around, too hot, can’t get comfortable in bed, can’t lie on stomach.
9dpo – Wake 4am can’t get bac to sleep, cramp and backache come and go, feel achy down in pelvic area, exhausted by 3pm, constipated, go to bed very early.
10dpo – Feel ok today but tired by 4pm, constipated, got to bed early.
11dpo – First good night’s sleep in a week, cramps, backache, diahorrea, uncomfortable after eating lunch.
12 dpo – Tired, feel like I have stitch all day long in both sides. Decided with OH to test tomorrow morning.
13 dpo – 7am BFP

fx for you nutella.

Wow there's only a few left on this bus now! really hope it ends on a high.

I am having the most painful period ever. I may have to go home earlier. I don't normally suffer this badly, I wonder what is causing it! It's weird how some months are awful and others are fine.

I've pink cm and period pains. Is it worth me clinging on to any hope?

Ok joey will adjust stats, there's hardly any of us left!

Actually Lucie I think I need to come off too...my 1st peak day on CBFM was Tues but I think I actually ovulated on Weds - I had the weirdest short sharp pain in the right side for a few mins which I thought could be ovulation happening?! So that makes 31st 9DPO (nt entirely sure when AF is due because cycles are adjusting post pill) so a bit early to test I suppose. Will still be cheering you all on though!!

Thanks Cariad Yay to your wtf cycle being over with, I hope you Pregvember brings you your BFP.

Sorry AF arrived Genni
Good luck with Soy! There surely needs to be some more soy babies if the stats are to be believed!

Thanks Sunbathing

Thanks spinning

No problem dozy, will take you off the list and keep fingers firmly crossed for November for you!

Yey teeniedeenie congratulations!

Boo for the AFs .

I think I should prob come off the stats list now as I ov'd yesterday so even with a frer Im unlikely to get a BFP at the end of October. But I'll be hear shaking my Pom poms and cheering to the bitter end. Pregvember is going to lucky for us all!

Popping on to say that AF has arrived and for once I am delighted. We've decided to try again next cycle (having skipped this one) so I shall be crossing over to the November bus, but I fully intend to keep lurking here to cheer on the final few BFPs.

Oh dear wanttobe, your poor dh. You could do doggy when you have to dtd, that way you won't have to look at him

Lucie, keeping fingers crossed for you.

Genni, I'm having to wait until Nov 18th to see Accupuncture lady but felt same as you that I'd rather see her as she's Zita west affiliated. Let's hope it works for us both

I think I am about 4/5dpo now Genni so looking at the end of next week before AF arrives or possibly may go over into November. The consultant I have seen keeps telling me that 95% of people who don't have any issues are pregnant within 12months but I've never read of the stats being that high anywhere else and surely she has to come into it as well so not sure where they are getting that from.

Brilliant pic Teenie, I was also thinking I would probably have to skive off work as I would be too shocked / excited to do anything!

Teenie that's amazing PIC

portfolio? I mean poor lol.

ooh teenie you must be so excited!!!! I think I'd have to skive off work the day I finally get my bfp Please post your stats when you can

Thanks lucie I'm hoping November is my month. Cycle 12 and you always hear how X number of people conceive in a year so hoping I scrape in as one of them! Are you well into the 2ww now? Fx for you!

spinning she said on her answerphone she has a waiting list but would call back within 48 hours. I'll chase her again on Monday if not heard. I could try someone else but I figure if she's Zita trained and has a waiting list she must be good? I know what you mean about temping - I didn't poas once this cycle as knew from my temps it was game over. I think it's better than getting my hopes up!

want how did he not realise the hairdresser was being a bit over zealous with those clippers? Your portfolio DH!

Sorry to hear about those with BFNs, I'm sure we still have a few BFPs to go before the end of the month. I have my FX for you all!

& to those of you that have had AF arrive... I'm gonna snap her broom, stupid witch, grrr...

As promised, here are my tests from this morning... I feel numb because I'm still in such shock, just had a meeting at work and could not concentrate in it one bit! I will work on my stats today and post them later for you.

DH was home late last night so I didn't see him. He didn't tell me he went to he hairdressers... And that there had been a misunderstanding. I woke up next I a skinhead!! I kid you not it is about 1mm long :'( and his hair is normally about an inh or two! Next week is my fertile week and he has just massively reduced his sex appeal oh no. Had to try hard not to cry in my half asleep state... I know it is only hair maybe it is he hormones! He looks ridiculous as he has a v bad receding hairline whih is normally covered up hehe. Oh dear, poor DH I so think in hindsight I was a bit mean

Aww thank you cariad that's really nice of you

Sorry af has arrived Genni I really had my fingers crossed that it would be your month. Pregvember has to be better though x
