Last month I drove myself nuts with symptom spotting and early poas. I had every sign and symptom going and was convinced I was pregnant. Luckily I kept a list of all my many symptoms on a calendar so this time if necessary I can remind myself that pms has all the same same features as early pregnancy.
I'm determined not to test until 23rd, as I think I should come on then if I'm going to, must stay strong!! Anyone want company in ignoring the whole thing?!

Congrats drolove woohoo!!

doom I had period pains too.

spring how come?

I'm still getting quite faint lines on my tests, I've got a clearblue digital which I'm saving for tomorrow. I know how to treat myself at Easter Wink

fuzzywuzzy · 02/04/2015 10:30

remember having that heavy pulling feeling wen I ad DD and ten no period.

I'm currently using OPK's, I think I am right about when I normally ovulate tho... also hate the 2ww, then the week of AF pah Angry Brew Cake

MalibuDaisy · 02/04/2015 10:20

Interesting about the period pains thing. I've never had pains until AF has actually started, so that's something to look out for obsessively bear in mind :) x

MalibuDaisy · 02/04/2015 10:18

I'm still left to test, but only if AF doesn't arrive on Weds. She arrived late last Weds (about 6pm) so I'm banned from POAS until next Friday! Unless I throw up or pass out or do something that might be an actual test-worthy symptom before then Wink x

Droflove · 02/04/2015 10:13

Doomkitty, I had 3 days of bad period pains before BFP. Thought a stinker of an af was coming. I was wondering if you get pp and no af within a fairly short space of time, surely that is an indication you might be pregnant. As contractions of the womb cause the pp so the contractions should lead to af starting within a relatively short time frame.

doomkittycleo · 02/04/2015 10:03

I'm still left to test but due to period pains, not holding out much hope. If I don't come on in the next couple of days I'll test.

Springflower3 · 02/04/2015 09:29

Congrats to all has a bfp! Who is left to test???

Due to circumstances at present me and do are going to put off ttc for a while!

MalibuDaisy · 02/04/2015 09:14

Great news droflove!! Two in two days! Perhaps this is a lucky thread?! Wink

wineandpopcorn · 02/04/2015 08:31

Wow congratulations drove!! The bfp are coming thick and fast!!!! Fingers and toes crossed for the rest of you for new year babies! Smile.

doomkittycleo · 02/04/2015 07:41

Oh congrats droflove, really happy for you!!!

Droflove · 02/04/2015 00:38

Sorry for the silence. I went and got a test this afternoon. Peed on the bastarding yoke which made me wait forever for the result and it was a bfp!!!! Still reeling but over the shock enough to come back and tell you lovely ladies who cheered me on and helped me through the end of the horrific tww. Oh holy shit. I'll have 3 under 3.

wineandpopcorn · 01/04/2015 21:08

Congratulations epskie!!!!!! Flowers. Fantastic news x

LaraNotCroft22 · 01/04/2015 20:49

I wish it wasn't two weeks each time waiting. Gahhh so annoying! I don't think the men folk really get it either, just kinda wait on the news. Fingers crossed for some more bfps this month Smile

TerryTheGreenHorse · 01/04/2015 20:32

I feel moody and greasy and ive had a stabbing pain in my general womb area.

Triplets I reckon Grin

Monkeysocks38 · 01/04/2015 20:31

Doom I have achy stomach pains too. For now let's assume they are implantation cramps then we can feel positively about them. ??

epskie · 01/04/2015 20:30

Thanks so much everybody, I'm so happy but so nervous. Still very aware that a chemical is a real possibility this early on.

With regards to symptoms, I hate to say it but they were just the same as AF symptoms! And severe heartburn!

Springflower3 · 01/04/2015 20:19

If I explain the confusion it might be tmi!! Lol!! I've one last cb on the house and if it hasn't come by sat then I will test! But I've still got my pity party going on lol!! Your doing so well doom! I really hope you get bfp!!

doomkittycleo · 01/04/2015 20:15

Why the confusion Spring. I'm trying not to try to figure out if I'm having af pains or something else. Trying to hold out till she's due before testing. I'm actually too scared to test but my Internet cheapies arrived today. 10dpo today.

Springflower3 · 01/04/2015 20:12

I'm wallowing in self pity and confusion!!

doomkittycleo · 01/04/2015 19:59

Everyone has gone quiet....

TerryTheGreenHorse · 01/04/2015 16:20

It fell out of the fridge. The annoying bastard!

MalibuDaisy · 01/04/2015 15:26

Hahaha, what did the coleslaw do?! I often swear at inanimate objects - probably says more about my mental state than my fertility but you never know Wink
