Congratulations Daisy! This should be known as the luckiest thread on mumsnet. Hope you have a smooth pg. Flowers

I'm still lurking to see how everyone gets on.

I'm hoping Love is ok. I'm gonna stick around until there is news.

GerberaDaisy · 22/04/2016 20:40

Also any news Love? How did it go with GP? Xx

GerberaDaisy · 22/04/2016 20:39

Got a BFP this afternoon - wowza! My son took 6 cycles to conceive so both me and DH are a little surprised to say the least on cycle 2... I hope you lovelies will be joining me soon?! It's still very early days obviously, but to be honest I have been feeling symptoms since around 3 DPO. Some say that's not possible but I've been tracking it and definitely started having cramping and feeling fatigued from 3 DPO. Fingers crossed to all of you waiting for your BFP xx

DanielleAmelia1 · 22/04/2016 14:38

Hey!
Frazzle that's what I thought, but I never know with my body .. I'm hoping it's a good sign rather than af tbh lol
I've got 9 days now until I can test according to the ovia app .. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Hoping everyone gets the answers they want and need :) xxxx

SoozC · 22/04/2016 13:11

Love, thinking if you and sending sticky thoughts. I really hope everything is okay for you.

Frazzle, I'm on cycle #4 now. So not that long! But DP and I have been together 8 years and I'm 34 so I've spent a few years wishing for children before now and being sad at the arrival of AF. So it seems like I've been trying years! I am feeling more philosophical today and telling myself I just need to relax. Hard to do, easy to say, but I'm trying. I use Ovia and FF already.

FrazzleRock · 22/04/2016 09:17

Oh love, let us know how you get on. Hopefully it is just uterus stretching. I have my fingers and toes tightly crossed for you x

charlotte Sounds like it. Try again in a few days, maybe Sunday or Monday?

Danielle If AF isn't due for ten days, isn;t it a bit early for AF niggles? Fingers crossed it's something else!

Luv Good luck with the results for next week. It's so frustrating isn't it. My cycles used to last 100+days, but at least I knew that was down to the bastard PCOS. Let us know how you get on won't you.

As for me, DP was complaining last night in bed that I was roasting hot, he said I was like a radiator. I didn't feel hot in myself though, just normal. Is that a preg symptom? My cheeks (on my face) were really hot all afternoon yesterday, too. I felt normal though, a little cold if anything! But had to hold a bottle of water to my face to cool my cheeks down. I remember being rosy cheeked with my last pregnancy...
Also, I still so thirsty! Last time I loved anything orange flavoured and it seems to have come back. I always drink plain water but I'm so sick of the taste of water right now and keep wanting orange squash. On the tube en route to work this morning I told DP I just want a cube of orange Jubbly (you know those triangle lolly things you by unfrozen). He loooked at me and said "Hmmm... you said the same last time...." I also devoured all the orange Moams he bought the other day in one fell swoop!

Am I just reading too much into this? It's driving me mad.
I WILL TEST TOMORROW.

I should know for sure by then if that line was imaginary/evap.

charlotte1990 · 22/04/2016 08:51

Gave in and tested today but came back negative think it's too early.. due on Tuesday and must be 9dpo x

DanielleAmelia1 · 21/04/2016 22:56

Fingers crossed everything is ok love!
Keep us up to date Hun
Xxx

charlotte1990 · 21/04/2016 22:38

Ow no Luv hope your ok fingers crossed all is Okay x

lovewatchingrainfall · 21/04/2016 19:09

Off to the doctors tomorrow. Getting really strong pains in my side now so think it's the start of mc as this is how my others started.
Husband is at his mothers and loving it as he is being fed and looked after when he comes back from work. While I have the hassle of a 3 year old who does not sleep and is very energetic.

Send you all some Baby dust and hope things are okay.

OP posts:
Luvbeinmum · 21/04/2016 18:29

Sounds promising D. Baby dust to you.

Well Cd 42 today just went to dr urine test negative. Sitting waiting now to have blood work.

Being that I'm almost 40. Dr thinks pre med maybe which can last 10 years or could have thyroid out of wack etc. testing blood for pregnancy and more. Hopefully answers early next week. Still having all symptoms but could be period wanting to come. Ugh.

The wait continues. Told DH finally and at first he flipped but now being sorta supportive.

DanielleAmelia1 · 21/04/2016 17:16

Hey guys

Frazzle ive got to many symptoms its unreal! My pcos hasn't had a flare up recently as I suffer with quiet a few pains from my ovaries.
I have so much extra hair growth its crazy, my periods were all over the place but I ended up on the mirena coil, then the pill.. now nothing.
I have had a withdrawal bleed from the pill and had my period around a month later so im hoping I may have some good news and they could be coming normal.

I have ten days until im due af.
counting down is horrible, I feel like im just going to start my period anytime.

Ive had sore boobs (tmi sorry) and lots of clear white discharge for a few days now. My sex drive is hitting the roof too!
ive had a lot of cramps but unsure if its af.

any advice would be great, Ive downloaded so many apps to help its crazy!

I really hope those of you looking for bfp get them very soon, sending lots of baby dust!!

ps im new to the lingo around here to forgive me If I make any mistakes or don't understand :)

FrazzleRock · 21/04/2016 14:00

Oh Sooz I know the feeling well. How long have you been TTC? Have you tried the Ovia app? I think it's pretty good, although, until I get that conclusive BFP I won't be highly recommending it!

SoozC · 21/04/2016 13:10

Thanks for all the thoughts. Still gutted today, especially as a colleague brought in two of her three children, one 17 months the other 1 month. I was pleased I was teaching so I couldn't really say hi, but of course feel bad about that too.

Fx Frazxle! Roll on Saturday!

Love, I hope the MIL sorts him out!

charlotte1990 · 21/04/2016 11:45

Hey Frazzle,
I haven't tested at all yet 8/9dpo think its too early... thinking sunday... :)

got a busy weekend ahead now, come home to an early bday pressie last night the bf hired a hot tub for a week lol friends and family round for the next 3 nights. probably good wont think about testing too much :)

FrazzleRock · 21/04/2016 10:09

Sooz I really hope it's not an evap! I'm been manically googling what they look like and they're not far off, actually they're exactly like mine.. if it wasn't for all these symptoms, I'd not have thought anything more of it.
I was going to test tomorrow but I might leave it until Sat if I can. Come on Saturday! How are you feeling now? I'm so sorry you got your AF. It's so miserable isn't it Sad

Charlotte When are you testing again?

How's everyone else doing?

charlotte1990 · 21/04/2016 09:33

Only a few days left till I can test.... really hoping I am... will be great timing but got to tell my self what will be will be... x

SoozC · 21/04/2016 07:50

I can see it on the second one, Frazzle! Fx for a nice strong line soon.

FrazzleRock · 20/04/2016 18:59

Love That sounds like a good idea. Stupid man.

FrazzleRock · 20/04/2016 18:57

I'm amazed any of you can see it!
Maybe my eyesight is just terrible. I'm going to test again on Sat

Danielle I am a big PCOS sufferer. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer. If it helps, Ovia app reckons I'm due today and in the past week and a half Ive had metal mouth (constantly), watery mouth (constantly), thirst (constantly), pelvic niggles, waves of nausea, vivid dreams, fatigue, deep sleep (I'm normally a very light sleeper), the odd boob niggle, rosy cheeks daily, bloating, cravings (same as with the one we lost in Feb), frequent weeing, and a couple of sharp headaches. Also, if you want to explore further, check your cervix height if you're familiar with yours. Mine is very high and remains closed. Though I've heard this is not a certain indication of pregnancy as it can take a while for the cervix to get higher.

After all those symptoms, I thought I'd get a good strong line by now! #phantom Wink

Frantasic · 20/04/2016 17:58

I see something Frazzle. Fingers crossed you get one that conclusive next test. But it looks like congratulations are in order. Flowers

Thanks Little.. You have been a star thank you for everything. Good luck with everything and enjoy your little one. Xxx

Love... How are things today with OH? I hope things are calming down. Xxx

charlotte1990 · 20/04/2016 15:17

i think I see something Frazzle
congratulations to those of you who have fallen :)
thanks love I hope I do don't think ill test Friday though will be too early I think to show would only be 9dpo? x

lovewatchingrainfall · 20/04/2016 14:26

I am sure i see something Frazzle..

Good luck with the scan on Sunday little i will see you over on the other one soon, just trying to make sure this one sticks.

Thanks i have sent him to his mothers for the week. just so i dont have to put up with him. Well and the fact he is working for the next seven days he is a nurse. Can not handle him waking me up at half 4 every morning and getting home at 9 and doing nothing but moaning so she can deal with him.

DanielleAmelia1 · 20/04/2016 14:12

Hey all! I'm still getting used to all this lol

I've noticed a lot of you suffer with Pcos, which I do too, I'm hoping it's not going to cause a problem this month.
I came off my pill, had a with drawal bleed, then I had a period, now I'm hoping everything is working fine..

Af is due in a 11 days, hoping there's no signs.

Did anyone have any signs this early before af?
I think I'm driving myself crazy 🙈

Sending lots of bd and keeping my fx for you all!

Xxx

FrazzleRock · 20/04/2016 14:12

I hope you're all really good at squinting!

Hit me, I can take it
