the 2WW Continues...........................

I leave this thread for three days and poeple fall like ninepins .

CONGRATULATIONS to Shazza, S&C and coolkat!

i thought the recent BFN drout would never end!

What made me think it wouldn't happen this month was I only noticed EWCM on one visit to the loo, so was convinced the swimmers would not survive.

Yaayyyy. Somebody else is on here. Have only been able to tell DP and BF.

Well symptoms were/are;

6DPO, like a stretching or tugging in lower tummy.

7DPO, that was the day my legs went all shaky and I couldn't eat my dinner (very rare)

From day after OV until today AF pains. But just after OV they were really crampy and bad back ache. Thought that was a bit early to be getting AF pains.

Slight waves of nausea, but more from the throat if that makes sense.

Constipation - Not, quite the opposite in fact

Boobies - Not that tender at the moment, sure that will change.

Last night really thought AF was coming, very bad pains again.

Sorry I didn't take more notes

Sorry to see you go pixie, hopefully your toadstool will continue to rock

Congratulations S&C, no BFP for ages and then they all come at once. Let's hope we've started a trend.

I'm secretly worried, only 10DPO today. Tested with mid-stream test off internet, faint line at 3am this morning, then had to wait for the chemist to open to buy CBD, wouldn't believe it until I saw that word 'pregnant'. Fingers crossed it sticks.

Haven't read any posts since Friday so gonna catch up now.

But just wanted to say...

BFP this morning

Right let me see what everybody else is up to

Sorry Pixie take care of yourself.

Congratulations S&C try relax and enjoy!

Oh, and congrats of course to S&C

Pixie , I'll keep cutting the grass while you are away....have a good time and send us postcards now and again till you get back .

I'm sure I'll still be here when you get back!

S&C so happy for you. Hope this one sticks.

We'll miss you, Pixie my old cycle buddy. Don't forget us and don't forget to tell us when you get that BFP!

Congratulations S&C a BFP 3 days pre-AF means it's a strong one! Feel free to stick around and spread your BFP vibes. I wish you loads of luck.

Pixie so sorry . Have loads of fun in your time off TTC'ing, get really drunk and forget what CD you're on, have sex when you feel like it and don't have sex when you can't be bothered. Then come back all refreshed and we'll have your toadstool all sparkling clean for you.

Hey sweetiesand cakes congratulations. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Sorry Pixie. Look after yourself and hope to see you back here when you are feeling better.

Hope everyone is well. X

I got my BFP this morning - 3 days before AF was due. Am now paranoid that will miscarry in AF and wouldn't have known I was pregnant if I had waited to do the test.Very, very happy but confused and worried all at once!

congratulations coolkat

well its a BFN from me

Still feeling ill but it must be a tummy bug.

I am really going to take a little break now, maybe just one cycle or two.

Thanks everyone for being supportive, hope you all get your BFP's soon and that you've all graduated to the Ante Natal threads by the time I get back.

Coolkat Someone must get a BFP and join you soon but we love having you around!

Excitable TEW how dare she give you so much pain. She shows up late and disturbs your sleep in the middle of the night how rude! Still at least you know where you are now.

Shazza GOOD LUCK for testing tomorrow ex cycle buddy. I know it's a bit early for you (but as you know I'm an early tester too!) so I'm hoping for even a faint line!! Can't wait to hear.

No prob's Excitable sorry AF got you. Hope you get BFP soon. Still really nervous and can't quite believe it!

Someone, all of you come and join me soon ... lonely without you all

Congratulations Coolkat, sorry, read a page two pages before this one and didn't see your subsequent exciting news!! Really pleased for you but rather sorry I didn't get to leap to your defence...

ooo, there's some really encouraging things on here. Come on, Pixie, vom a bit more for us, please - you can do it!! Yay Pixie! Coolkat, it's looking really good for you - and I think it's just fine to ram your test up that chap's nose. Can I volunteer to be your defense lawyer? Practicing..."He had it coming m'lud..."

Well, I've had a really strange time of it, but at least I know where I stand now. On Thursday night I took some people out for dinner for work and got embarassingly drunk on not very much wine. Couldn't understand it at all, but put it down to having cut down on the booze lately and my tolerance suffering. Then on Friday (with nasty hangover) I was really clumsy all morning and decided to sack work in the afternoon and came home and just did nothing from about 1pm until about 9pm when I went to bed! Then at 3am, when DH was just going to bed after having a Friday night party all by himself, I woke up - wide awake - and discovered AF had arrived. And HOW!! And... owwwww! Side splitting period pains!! They woke me up about 6 times after that between 3am and 9am when I got up and decided make myself a hot water bottle to ease the pain. It was such a hot water bottle that it completely numbed my whole abdomen, which was great, but it also meant that I gave myself a great big band of heat rash and didn't notice that it felt different because it was so numb!!

Now having the heaviest AF that I've had in years. Is this usual after a long cycle? Does it mean that my body was just adding and adding to the lining of my womb and there was just more to come out?

Anyway, not too disappointed about not being pregnant as three BFNs can't be wrong. At least I can have another go in a couple of weeks now...

Off to change my day in the waiting room...

DG - yes, about those cream cakes.. !!!!! Just joking. I have been behaving better. Garlic bread is evil! It's all I can taste 3 hours later - so not worth the pain.

abby don't be so hard on yourself, we're all allowed a few lapses. As long as you're eating lots of fruit & veg, getting the right nutrients and getting enough exercise to get your blood pumping and those ovaries working you'll be in tiptop baby-making condition. A few pounds won't make a difference, as long as you're not sat on your arse eating nothing but creamcakes for weeks on end.

I apologise for my mememememe rant .

DD has had friends round today. I ate a large green salad with beans, olives, pine nuts, oil and balsamic vinegar... and then promptly finished off 3 slices of their pizza and some garlic bread. WHY????? WHY???? Hear my despairing cry!!!! I'm fully aware of how bloody hard its been to chisel of 10lbs, and now I'm putting the buggers back on again, despite the fact I want to be thinner to increase chances of having a baby. I am naughty .
