@Mrskcam I wouldn't say it's too early. When is AF due?

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 15:26

@Anny27 I feel so all over the place. I wanted to hold out but I'm feeling so emotional that I would like to be able to put it down to something if possible, agh dunno what to do

Anny27 · 12/07/2019 15:24

@Mrskcam

I dont think 13dpo is too early! Try hold on if you can but theres a good chance to test will be accurate

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 15:23

I'm 13dpo do you think it's too early to test? I know I said I was gonna hold out but my moods today are crazy and I never normally get mood swings so I just want answers now really if I can

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 15:11

Ugh think I can really feel af coming

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 15:08

Just hoovered and steamed my kitchen floor and I feel like I've pulled every muscle in my stomach 😖 what is going on 😩

LikeTheFruit · 12/07/2019 14:15

@Lozzlepop meant 6! Stupid fat fingers!

LikeTheFruit · 12/07/2019 14:15

Poor you @Lozzlepop, I'm 7 weeks today and apart from moving away from someone cause I didn't like the smell of their lunch I've not had any nausea so far.

@PippaPug huge congratulations to you. Have an amazing wedding and honeymoon!

MrsH497 · 12/07/2019 13:54

Thanks @Lozzlepop think it's just one of those things nothing else.

Lozzlepop · 12/07/2019 13:49

@ELW85 yes it does and doesn't as feeling nauseous so much isn't ideal lol! Yes, I have my fingers crossed for all the ladies testing at the weekend, that would be lovely!

@MrsH497 sometimes you just end up having a coughing fit, but fingers crossed theres another reason!

@XjustagirlX 9DPO is still super early, when is AF due? maybe hold off and test in a few days?

@LokiCat thats a good amount of time to test! I have everything crossed for you 🤞🏻that is a long cycle!

@PippaPug I am 5 weeks and a day, apparently the nausea really kicks in from week 6 🙈 Ahhh thats good thinking! We have pretty traditional parents too and we aren't married (DP has been married before) but Im pretty sure once the baby is here they won't care! A week today to the big day am I right? How exciting!!!

LokiCat · 12/07/2019 13:08

@Mrskcam that fits from what I read. It's low, hard and open for the period to come through. However goes high and soft in pregnancy..

PippaPug · 12/07/2019 13:08

@MrsH497 - oh no I hope your ok? Fingers crossed it’s a promising sign for you ☺️

@Lozzlepop - how many weeks are you? Literally the all day/night nausea has appeared from yesterday aka since I found out 🤨 We have decided not to tell anyone, which I’m finding really difficult but he is worried about to many people finding out before the wedding (and we have very old fashioned traditional grandparents so we are hoping if all being well to pass the baby off as a honeymoon baby 🤣 for them!)

Good luck to all those who are testing this weekend? must be 5 of you? Got my fingers tightly crossed for you all 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 12:57

@LokiCat I've on and off kept an eye on it and I swear this time last cycle it was mid and firm and then went quite low like I didn't have to try hard to find it at all but it's fully vanished today so who knows. Everything I read about it is conflicting it's so annoying

LokiCat · 12/07/2019 12:55

@ELW85 I've definitely got that Friday feeling and am ready to get away!

@Lozzlepop I'll be 13dpo, which is when I got my bfp last time.. I'm too impatient, I don't think I'll be able to hold out too much longer! 😂 This cycle has been long enough - currently at CD56!!

@Mrskcam disappearing cervix sounds promising?? From what I read it's soft and high but closed in early pregnancy. I actually tracked mine for the first time yesterday and it was high but felt 'medium', whatever that means!

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 12:47

@XjustagirlX do whatever helps you! At the end of the day you're the only one who can accurately track changes in your body

XjustagirlX · 12/07/2019 12:45

@Mrskcam I don’t check my cervix. I admit I wouldn’t even know the correct way to do this or what it should feel like.

XjustagirlX · 12/07/2019 12:44

Oh no I caved and did a test. I’m 9dpo and of course it was negative. I had the most awful cramps this morning. Not sure if that’s a good sign or not. However I’ve just checked my nipples and they seem a bit darker. Would it be weird to take pictures of my nipples to monitor the shade Confused

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 12:40

Ladies can I ask do any of you track your cervix? Do you think it's reliable or whatnot. I've been kinda just trying to get used to mine and it seems to have gone MIA today 🙈

MrsH497 · 12/07/2019 12:38

@Lozzlepop running past the high ranking officer trying to smile whilst coughing/retching isn't best bit of the day!

So odd don't know why I've reacted so strongly to coughing

ELW85 · 12/07/2019 12:33

@Lozzlepop- I’d be laughing too! And I’m pleased I can be of some use in this useless state, haha!
Oh no, can’t believe you’re that nauseous (in the best of ways!) it must be so nice to ‘feel’ pregnant. I’m still convinced that one of the weekend crew will deliver so they can join you - it’s be nice to have a little supportive grads circle!

Lozzlepop · 12/07/2019 12:28

@ELW85 it gave me a giggle! I hope when you get your car back and it smells delightful!

@LokiCat are you going to test again over the weekend, its still early! I hope so too 😂

@MrsH497 oh no are you ok? Brushing my teeth is a nightmare at the mo, makes me want to vom! 🙈

ELW85 · 12/07/2019 12:12

@LokiCat - that just made me lol. I’ve got visions of your husband leaning into the fan, imagining he’s driving a convertible down a Californian highway 😂
But mine is similar, so we’re in the same boat!

@Mrskcam - I’ll keep everything crossed for you! There’s got to be one of us this weekend/Monday that gets a BFP, I’m sure of it!!

Tired by lunchtime. Is it the weekend yet?!

MrsH497 · 12/07/2019 12:08

Oh I’ve just had to run to the toilet 🤢swallowed drink wrong then was retching for what felt like ages. Too early surely for anything meaningful

LokiCat · 12/07/2019 11:44

@ELW85 DH says he likes the feel of the wind in his face as he sleeps 😂
Haha I think we all have some moments! Blame it on the Friday feeling. Yay for car valet though! It'll definitely be feeling brand new 😊

@Lozzlepop you say willpower, yet I took a test last night at 10dpo! I'm not that strong 😂
Well done for gym this morning! I hope your quiet weekend is relaxing 😊

@Mrskcam I should hold out as well, as AF isn't due till Tuesday, but I don't think I'll be able to!

Mrskcam · 12/07/2019 11:37

@ELW85 well I'm not even sure what's made me hopeful for this month so I'm holding out as I wanna avoid disappointment
