Thought I'd start a November thread for those of us left over from the October thread. (I hope this is ok and I'm not bypassing some sort of forum etiquette).

Here are my stats:

AddictedtoGreys · 11/11/2015 21:25

Boobs been sore and tingly all day, how am I going to wait 9 days to test!! Confused

ThirdThoughts · 11/11/2015 20:15

Thanks OwlinaTree hope you get lucky next month x

No sign of AF yet and still have on/off nausea. I think I'm going to be more surprised if I'm not tbh even though it would be lucky to be. But I also have a bit of a plan to get myself fitter and healthier either way so at least I'll have something to focus on if I get the dreaded BFN.

OwlinaTree · 11/11/2015 19:46

Boo, af arrived this pm for me. So I'm out for this month! Hope there are lots more bfp to come, if not I'll see you on the next thread.

Good luck for Friday third ~// Grin

Purplerain067 · 11/11/2015 11:34

AF not due until next Sunday and still getting EWCM, so no idea why I feel so sick!! Hopefully not down to a bug!

That's a good sign addicted! Fx!!

Havetobecrazy

I've seen other women experiencing the same thing , I'm sure someone said they were 30+ weeks but the clear digital wouldn't show past 1-2 weeks

AddictedtoGreys · 11/11/2015 07:27

Just woke up with really sore nipples! Good sign as I have pretty much lost all feeling in them since BF DS Grin

wantingno2 · 11/11/2015 07:19

hi havetobecrazy I've been reading on the Internet that apparently the conception indicater isn't very accurate at all and as for the fainter line it all depends on how much hcg is in ur wee a blood test is more accurate could your wee of been abit dilutes??

Havetobecrazytolivehere · 11/11/2015 06:47

Morning everyone,

I am feeling a bit worried today, my tests have been getting lighter and have just done a CB digit which said 1-2 instead of 2-3!

Plus my symptoms have disappeared. Is this a bad sign? Have been feeling a bit down since I told DH as he was less than enthusiastic, he has come round now but I am in worry overdrive. You are right Melvali of course, wish I had waited longer to test. Will try and concentrate on looking after myself whilst I wait for AF date to pass.

wantingno2 · 10/11/2015 21:01

Thanks for the cyber slap melvali ino I just need to try and relax and enjoy it I will be having early scan's at 7 and 9 weeks so once there out the way I think I will feel alot better need to make a doctor's appointment tomorrow I've got my pregnacare and baby aspirin but need a stronger dose of folic acid I was taking pregnacare conception all last month so should already be some good vitamins in my body.

Jw35 · 10/11/2015 20:50

Congratulations mummyc92!

Ovulating today so my 2 week wait is starting tomorrow!

redstrawberries101 · 10/11/2015 20:48

Wantingno2

I've seen you on the July 16 post too, just wanted to say congrats and yes you need a cyber slap!

All this stress and worry is no good for you. If something happens, it's not in anyone's control and will happen anyway regardless to how much you stress over it.

You've fallen pregnant , try and enjoy it :) I know it easier said than done but I also had to give myself a cyber slap because I was feeling all miserable and thinking it won't feel real until midwife appt at the earliest. I even got to the stage where I was checking to see if AF arrived late. But seriously it's not helping our bodies and it's not helping our babies. Be strong and happy :)

wantingno2 · 10/11/2015 20:08

So I've ordered myself some more tests will be here tomorrow so I can watch the line get darker and the weeks indicater go up because I'm absolutely terrified something is going to go wrong given my previous bad luck befor I had my son I can stop myself from thinking it's all going to end some one needs to cyber slap me ??

Loki17 · 10/11/2015 18:28

Good luck everyone! Can't wait to see more BFP'S!

Hi there,

I love the BFP reports, keep them coming!

Jaunty
TTC 1
Cycle 2
DPO 9 (I think!)

I am a bit late but can I jump on the bus? I was on the October bus but disappeared as unfortunately my FIL passed away. Has also meant DH and I haven't DTD much this month so I'm not too hopeful I'll get a BFP this cycle.

The only thing that is making me hopeful in terms of symptoms is being totally exhausted (although that might be the stress of the last few weeks catching up on me), and that my nipples are stupidly tender.

Going to test on Sunday if AF hasn't shown up yet.

Grace893 · 10/11/2015 12:06

Hi AF arrived today so I am out. Thanks for all the support it really helped in the TWW. Congratulations to everybody with their BFP and hopefully this bus continues to be lucky for everyone else.

Namethattune · 10/11/2015 10:31

Wow, congratulations to all the BFPs! This really is turning out to be a lucky bus!

I want to talk about boobs. As I am now 6dpo, and mine are starting to hurt. I know this is usually a good sign, but mine hurt EVERY month, from ovulation to when af arrives. But normally it starts literally the day after ovulation, so I don't know what's going on this month. I got a strong positive OPK test last Tue lunchtime, so didn't bother testing again after that. Does it mean that I ovulated later than I thought? In which case I probably missed DTD in my fertile window. I don't expect anyon to have any answers, just musing out loud really.

Also, for the first month ever, I had some spotting after af had finished. Normally I spot for a couple of days before af arrives, but this month I had 2 days of spotting on cd 7 & 8, a couple of days after af had finished. What's all that about??

MiniLop · 10/11/2015 10:30

Please can I jump on this bus? Finally got my first AF after having DS, so now ready to get going again for number 2!
My stats:

Ttc #2

Td ?? No idea how long my cycles are yet!!

wantingno2 · 10/11/2015 10:04

yeyy congratulations mummy Cake

Purplerain067 · 10/11/2015 10:03

Third, I feel exactly the same in regards to my weight, I'm worried it's going to hinder my chances of conceiving but am trying to stay positive. I am like you trying to lose weight too, I guess bmi is just one factor to consider, I lead a pretty healthy lifestyle so fx for us! Flowers

ThirdThoughts · 10/11/2015 09:56

Congratulations! :)

AF still hasn't shown up yet (though as I was irregular anyway so had no estimate date of when it would arrive). I was sick yesterday morning, but I was trying to swallow tablets which have made me feel sick before so in conclusive. I must get some that are easier to swallow. I've also had a bit of acid reflux/ heart throatburn and fell asleep yesterday afternoon after my flu jab.

I go between feeling certain I am to still thinking how unlikely it is and doubting it again. Friday (when DH and I have agreed to test) seems a long way away.

Worrying a bit about my (very) high BMI. :( Although we'd started trying, I didn't expect to fall pregnant until I'd lost some weight. I'm going to concentrate on eating nutritious food in sensible portions and increasing my fitness (from a very low base) by moving more. Last time between sickness and being sensible I lost weight gradually into the second trimester, then put it on slowly, and was lower than booking in weight within a few weeks of birth. So I'm sure I can stay healthy during pregnancy, but I'm worried about the effect of BMI at booking in on my care and choices for labour.

I do want to be pregnant and will deal with the weight stuff, but I suppose if I'm not it will give me something to focus on improving whilst TTC.

MrsNuckyT · 10/11/2015 09:43

Congrats on the all the BFPs. AF is due for me on Sunday, so I might cave and do a FR in the next few days. I have a full medical on Thursday and they usually do a smear test, so if there is any chance I'm pregnant I want to know in advance!

God I hope this is my month. 7 cylces is just getting depressing and frankly a bit worrying :(

Purplerain067 · 10/11/2015 09:40

Congratulations Mummy!! This is a lucky bus, I hope I'm just as lucky!! Fx!

Somnambulator · 10/11/2015 09:30
