Welcome to the thread for TTCers who track too much, spot to much and use most of our expendable income in Internet Cheapies.

Cycle 5 or 55 we don't care this is a place for your hopeful twaddle and necessary pre-conception ranting.

I am away now but will upload dress pic once we have done a shot tonight or tomorrow.

Chelle I had a little puke 4+2 if that makes you feel better but so far it's been a one off.....for now. I know iron supplements can make you vomit.

I'm not POAS til I'm home in just over 2 weeks time. Hehe!

I'm off my food, normally quite an eater but not been hungry and felt queasy so no eaten anywhere near as much as I would normally.

Has the tiniest bit of brownish discharge in my knickers last night I think this is fine. It really was nothing but still makes you worry.

It's going to be a long 8 weeks to 12 weeks!

Hope you're all doing ok.

mrspcr take a pic of your new dress? X

chelle792 · 19/07/2015 15:48

Welcome dayc. Sorry to hear af has arrived.

I'm good apart from the last two days puking up both my breakfast and lunch!Wine

Yy chelle, some people get sick from the week they conceive, others never do. It just depends on your make up and how your body copes with hormones.

Rick I ate through the nausea in my first trimester last time - nothing wrong with it, just please learn from my mistake and take healthy snacks with you not chocolate hobnobs Grin I was FAT.

Everyone is different Chelle, don't think there is a set rule for any of this!

chelle792 · 18/07/2015 14:00

When are we supposed to actually be getting sickness? I was horrifically sick this morning and the only reason I have spewed up my lunch is because it was a public toilet and i really couldn't bring myself to do it. Is 4+5 too early for this?!?!

Rickalicious · 18/07/2015 13:36

Sunshine 10dpo is early, I only got my very faint BFP at 11dpo on a FRER.

Didn't sleep well last night, my DP went out and got drunk and snored each time he lay on his back..... I had great pleasure in holding his nose each time he was too loud!

Have felt more nausea today, which was worse after body pump this morning. Eating seems to help..... I can see myself 'eating for two' much earlier than you are supposed to!

Sunshinegirl2015 · 18/07/2015 08:58

We caved and POAS yesterday at 10DPO. BFN.

Then yesterday afternoon I had some very light pink discharge in my underwear and when I wiped. This morning it's the same but slightly brown too - definitely not red. And barley any. After a few wipes it had gone.

No cramps but I did have cramp the first 6DPO which was unusual for me. The spotting is also something I've never had.

AF due in three days on Tuesday 21st. No other symptoms so we're still keeping fingers and toes crossed.

MrsPCR · 18/07/2015 08:37

Oh also was just a bit queasy, but that passed without vomming! Yay!

MrsPCR · 18/07/2015 08:36

Whoop! Got up this morning, didn't do a test but think I am pregnant. AF is 2 days late. Going away for 2 and half weeks and not taken any tests with me! Will be strange going that long without pissing on anything!

Lizzy a pregnancy test would not show a miscarriage as it can take a while to get the HCG out of your system. It is there and it is staying, think positive thoughts.

Chelle, my mum will either be like yours or very reserved. It's going to be one of those two extremes I'm guessing. MIL will just be ridiculously excited.

Buy the stuff. I went to just 'have a look at mat wear' ended up seeing a gorgeous dress half price, tried it on and bought it! But it's ok, it's going to be my 'bump photos' dress. I am loving the fact mat dresses are all empire line as I have no waist so this the best cut for me. Grin

Damn you LOD with your lack of symptoms!

chelle792 · 17/07/2015 18:41

Pork scratchings? Sounds amazing! I'm going crazy for melon and grapes at the moment - and I'm not really a fruit eater. I worry baby is going to be like OH and have a sweet tooth!

Try to be positive lizzy. You need to look after yourself and baby will do its thing xxFlowers

soontobemrslizzy · 17/07/2015 18:21

I get that logically! Just not having much success being logical! ;) Hope you're enjoying the lack of nausea though!

LastOneDancing · 17/07/2015 17:33

Tests aren't going to tell you very much now Lizzy - tests wouldn't suddenly stop being positive x

Honestly the best thing you can do for you & your bean is try to relax and enjoy.

soontobemrslizzy · 17/07/2015 16:50

I'm terrified of that, Chelle. My mom had a miscarriage before me and then between me and my sister, don't know if they run in families. I keep thinking I should test today to make sure it's still there. But dh assures me that's crazy pregnant lady thinking that I should ignore! ;)

LastOneDancing · 17/07/2015 16:34

Just do what you want and don't tell her chelle - some people are superstitious and funny and can't help it with the 'but what ifa' (my DH), juse do what you are comfortable with.

I have NO symptoms, except a bit tired mid afternoon and a bit nauseous mid-morning. Oh and a craving not a craving and excuse for pork scratchingsGrin

chelle792 · 17/07/2015 16:10

Ah at least I'm normal! We all seem to match symptoms!!

My Mum keeps saying fingers crossed. I hope it goes ok. Let's hope it goes smoothly.... etc. She's doing my nut. I have cashback for argos on my card at the moment and want to pick up some stuff because it expires in nine days fair enough I am thinking about buying early but she keeps telling me to hold off because you don't know what will happen and are going to be heart broken.
Yeah Mum, because I'm planning to lose my baby!!!!
Rant over! sorry ladies!

MrsPCR · 17/07/2015 15:45

I have had cramps of sorts the last 2 days, whereas my normal period pains feel like they are moving or rippling whereas this is just a constant dull but quite strong pain across the whole area. I assume that's normal? I'm still expecting AF every time I go to to toilet, which is currently 2 hourly, maximum 3. Grr! The waves of nausea have professed to vomiting not which seems horribly unfair at 4w+2. Did mean I managed 3 hrs between toilet trips this morning! Every cloud!?

I did feel a lot better after being sick and have felt a lot better today so in some ways prefer that just worried it's going to be a long 9 months....

soontobemrslizzy · 17/07/2015 13:32

Rik, I just got whatever the final number was. But yesterday I did one before work and got 1-2 weeks and did another at 10am and got 2-4. I haven't poas today but I feel like I should! I might later just to make sure I'm really pregnant!

Chelle, I've got light cramps, not like AF and quite brief. But the nausea has started for me! Worse at night, and not been sick yet but definitely unpleasant. Also still really tired and headachy.

Rickalicious · 17/07/2015 13:19

Hey Chelle, I'm still getting cramps and quite bad bloating/trapped wind.... I think that is making my cramps feel even worse. They were a bit stronger this morning but have worn off. Apart from that i'm feeling ok, but my sister said her nausea didn't fully kick in until 7 weeks and she's still being sick now at 21 weeks :-(

Also welcome Welshcake and Sunshine, this has been a lucky thread so fingers crossed for you!

chelle792 · 17/07/2015 13:00

Haha lod you've made me laugh so much!!! Grin I admit, syncro I good but I messed it up Blush although we did both get our bfp's so I think I'm forgiven Wink Flowers
I've not been keeping up with the thread the last couple of days. Typed this morning but my.laptop died so am finally checking in.
Having awful stomach cramps still. Are you guys - lod, rik etc? All those bfp's we had last weekend.

everythingcrossed2015 · 17/07/2015 10:56
