Very early signs you might be pregnant.

Just wondering what your very first indications were? It's way too early for me to test but I've got tender boobs which is not typical for me during my cycle and period type cramps, and again not typical for me.

I am probably clutching at a million straws but am interested in your experiences.

Oooooooh is it true that ovulation tests show positive when you're pregnant? My internet cheapies are claiming I'm not pregnant, but they obviously lie.

What a wagon of a GP Drew Angry

DrewOB · 10/03/2015 10:34

Very unpleasant GP. She just said "probably early miscarriage, do a test at the end of the week to be sure" and sent me on my way. Not interested at all about PCOS, periods or anything.
Meanwhile I've dropped 2kg in a week due to sickness and being off food :(

I just don't know what's going on.

LastOneDancing · 10/03/2015 10:01

Mysterious Drew!
Everything crossed for you.

DrewOB · 10/03/2015 07:52

GP in an hour. The test I did yesterday ended up turning positive after a while. I've never had one do that before.

tammie49 · 09/03/2015 12:10

Looks like I might be out. temp went up a bit this am and was hopeful but have what looks like start of AF now only very light spotting at this stage. terrible cramps though so not hopeful. :(
drew, maybe you should see a Dr just to be sure.

MalibuDaisy · 09/03/2015 11:41

Aww that's a shame LastOne - still, at least she is being timely so that you can start over nice and quickly, I suppose. No metallic taste for me since first thing yesterday - I'm now convinced that all my "symptoms" were just me getting over-excited. But roll on Wednesday, one way or another.

LastOneDancing · 09/03/2015 06:33

I'm out.

Random early AF. But at least she didn't keep me waiting...

DrewOB · 08/03/2015 19:47

I'm waiting til bleeding has stopped. Did a test Saturday evening and that was negative

LastOneDancing · 08/03/2015 19:37

Have you done another test drew?

DrewOB · 08/03/2015 17:35

Just brewed grated ginger in hot water and feeling immensely better. sorry rambling

DrewOB · 08/03/2015 17:23

So, had a medium to light AF for 4 days when all symptoms disappeared, since today I feel like throwing up constantly again, breasts sore, exhausted. Am I stupid to hope? ( saying that, I really wish this was a stomach bug, but I find odd that there are bugs that take 3 days breaks)
Any opinion?

MalibuDaisy · 08/03/2015 08:48

I tested this morning (after saying I wouldn't!) BFN. It might have been too early (AF is due sometime between Tuesday and Thursday, but I haven't tracked her for enough months to be sure) but yesterday lunchtime I got a strong metallic taste in my mouth, it was really odd! I bit into some ham and it tasted like tin. The weird taste came and went all afternoon - even water tasted tinny - but it had gone by the evening. Strange that it should happen now as I've never experienced anything like it before, but after the BFN I'm not overly hopeful. We'll see. Sorry to hear that mumtoason I hope you have better luck in future Flowers

mumtoason87 · 06/03/2015 19:49

I'm out Sad

First period in 28 months - feels weird.

I think I'm going to give my body a few months to get back to normal before I start TTC again.

Thanks for the support ladies. X

MalibuDaisy · 06/03/2015 11:56

LastOne I am the same - last week, utterly convinced. A week away from the time I plan to test...nah. It would still be lovely to get a BFP but I don't have any real evidence, I think I just got over-excited ;)

LastOneDancing · 06/03/2015 11:03

So true drew. We just get so hyper sensitive to every twinge.

I don't think I'm going to be lucky this month either, but if you'd asked me a week ago I was convinced I was pregnant!

Ah well, best get some practice in for next month Wink December baby anyone?

I had a blood test on Wed (cd21) to check all my levels and everything was fine. DP going to go to drs now to check he's ok. I'm now 11dpo, my temp dipped at 7dpo and it's been rising ever since. I guess I could be pg if implantation hadn't occured on Wed but I'm just waiting for AF now. have cramps again this morning.

DrewOB · 06/03/2015 07:12

I'm out for this month :(. I guess the lesson is do not trust the symptoms until there's an actually BFP

LastOneDancing · 05/03/2015 19:24

Ov tests come out positive when you're pregnant mum Shock test! test! test!

DrewOB · 05/03/2015 10:57

more today but darker and not too heavy (sorry TMI)

aaargghh this wait is horrible!

DrewOB · 05/03/2015 08:26

I'm not sure what to think.
Some fresh blood last night but it seems to have stopped. Stomach has settled a bit too. Arrgghhhh!

mumtoason87 · 05/03/2015 08:08

Congatulations! Flowers

So to save me from wasting another pregnancy test I just took an ov test and it came out positive.

Obviously this could mean something or absolutely nothing.

Oh the joys of the 2ww!

Why do I do this to myself. Sad

LastOneDancing · 04/03/2015 22:35

congrats mrs!
