Totally get it. I want to stay postive incase the good vibes help! But then don't want to be too upset either? My Acupuncturist said one of her clients used to say - "I'm preg every month till my period comes". Haha!

yes i'm going to test on sunday as that will be my 11dpo (well its day 11 of steroids if that makes sense!)

I'm hoping too and tring to stay positive too but have no idea either. I like staying positive as much a spossible but as test day approaches - i'm always scared as if feels like its harder to take when you have your hopes up if that makes sense!

will get investigating the tests - i usually dont buy them until the day before i need them so then i am not tempted to use them earlier than i need to.

What day are you testing trying?

I can vaguely remember my symptoms from my other 2 bfps as it was so long ago - the first one i remember yawning lots the week before i got my bfp and also kept going off balance if i was standing up. The second time i remember feeling sick after i ate. I didn't have implantation bleeding either time and can't remember if i had cramping or not before hand. However both times i did get my bfp the symptoms I had were close to my missed period, and as we test so early on thsi approach i do wonder if i would feel anything, plus the pred is meant to mask symptoms so who knows!

Feeling more Postive today! I wish I could control My Mood better! Yest was so Crap .

I usually get Implantation bleeding and cramps with all 3 previous pregnancies, none so far so don't think it will have happened again. But month 7 might be it for me?!

Determined123 · 07/01/2015 09:35

Will do trying xx

Determined123 · 07/01/2015 09:34

I havent either but heard similar about super drug. I use frer normally from Amazon but they are 3 for 2 in boots at mo. Not sure if that ends up cheaper overall?

Tryingno1 · 07/01/2015 09:02

Determined keep us posted xx

Tryingno1 · 07/01/2015 09:01

Sunny no I haven't but I got my frer on amazon and they were a lot cheaper than in the shops can came within a few days.

Determined123 · 07/01/2015 08:08

Thanks guys you are all so lovely! Flowers I am trying to ignore it today (unlikely to happen although easier that I don't feel anything at all!!) And as DH said every day you go through is every day closer to an answer (even when it's not good). What a pavlova indeed Smile

Hope you are all feeling good today??

Hula no I only get boob pain when preg. (That's my go to sign). Steroids have conpletly wrecked my skin though!!

Also was wondering if anyone had tried the superdrug tests - will be buying my tests ready for early next week over next couple of days and normally buy first response but I've read the superdrug ones are meant to be as good plus they are a lot cheaper!!

What a pavlova determined! Will be thinking of you.

When I had my first mc, I was in limbo for about 3 weeks kept having bleeding, then went to hospital and. They said they couldn't find anything wrong etc etc - I found the being in limbo bit the most stressful as you have to try and get on with life as much as you can. Anyway keep us updated.

Everything crossed for you determined x

Hula2 · 06/01/2015 23:01

Evening ladies,

Determined - sorry you re having a rough time, it s horrid to be stuck in limbo.

Great saying Trying and very true, it s the obessessing that can be one of the most tiring parts of this ttc journey.

Dildoos - my dh was never keen on getting married (we d been together years) and he hated the whole idea of a wedding as he said he didn t need the whole public declaration to be committed to me. I wanted to be married if we were going to have kids but also wasn t that keen on a big wedding so we agreed to elope and tie the knot just the two of us so maybe suggest that !

Sunny - fingers crossed you start the bfps rolling.

Afm - cd 5 and already bored waiting for ov....! Also still have sores boobs, usually go after af s been, anyone else find this after pred ?

Tryingno1 · 06/01/2015 22:29

There's still hope ! I'm hoping for u! Xx

Determined123 · 06/01/2015 22:09

And yes no spotting today!

Determined123 · 06/01/2015 22:08

I wish that too really do. Only had an ic test this morning which was there but still feint. Didn't have a frer but did one yesterday, no real progress from a couple days before so I have bought some frers to test tomorrow. Just feels so much like last time!

Btw all pregnancy and ovulation tests/stuff are on 3 for 2 in boots at mo!!

Tryingno1 · 06/01/2015 21:41

Oh determined I hope that af doesn't come and it was just an implantation bleed thing. I really really hope so. What r the tests doing? Getting darker or lighter? Has spotting fully stopped?

Determined123 · 06/01/2015 21:32

Ah yes, bloating...I know what you mean! a few days of pred and I feel like I have puffed up already :(

Determined123 · 06/01/2015 21:29

Hi ladies!

Love the quote trying!

Ah Dildoos that's annoying, nice but annoying!! Have you dropped any sledgehammer style hints?

So I spoke with Louise and same info as last time. Stop testing, (I cant) keep taking the meds and increase cyclogest if spotting increases (it has stopped today but again did that last time). Pred masks symptoms etc. I feel just like I did last time and not in the slightest bit preg at all so am hoping full bleed will start the next couple days and I can move on.

I am also having loads of cramps and twinges on my left side and ovary too, it's horrible! Wish it would all hurry up now :(

I did make some enquiries about further tests today just to research (feel like I have cheated on Dr S :) ha ha ) but I feel like I have a bit of control when I actually don't.

What a nightmare hey!!

I like that quote trying - very apt!

Not feeling nausea today - def ate too much too quickly!!

I seem to be ok on the pred - I get bloated towards the end of the 10 days but apart from that ( and the odd day where I can eat and eat) I don't find them much of a problem.

dildoos · 06/01/2015 20:28

Tryingno1 · 06/01/2015 20:24
