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

Message withdrawn

uh-oh, I'm spotting brown-tinged cm. this could be AF arriving early. i know i wanted shorter cycles, but i'm only 10dpo. had spotting for the first time last cycle, but that was at 12 dpo and I thought it was due to being such a long cycle.

would so like to believe it's implantation, I did have a rise in temp today... but it feels LOADS like AF.

abby eat organic dark chocolate! it's more intense and should satiate your sugar/choc cravings. I think you're doing very well

welcome PB any symptoms yet?

Hiya, can I sneak in for this month only? Had a 'silly incident' with DH last week and not due on until Thurs 6th. The wait is driving me mad, I don't know how people cope doing it every month, hats off there. It was CD13 and the circs of DC2's amazing conception was on CD10 with half a, ahem, 'barrier' in the way LOL so I'm in with a chance.
Have decided to do a First Response test first thing Monday and if it's neg, try v hard not to test again until at least Friday if AF late. How long do you reckon I'll last LOL?

Hello all.

It's certainly sounding promising on here with lots of lovely symptoms. I am crossing my fingers and baby-dusting you all ready for your BFPs .

I am still bored at CD8. Am continuing on my b-ding marathon. It is taking serious effort given my seasonal knackeredness. Staying on the straight and narrow has been impossible this week - I am comfort eating my way to december with chocolate and cakes. DG - stop me - tell me I need leafy greens!!! I need wise words to help me to control my carb (non-pg) cravings!!

Hello cycle-buddies! How's everyone getting on at the 3ww?

P.s. Do we get Christmas emoticons again, like last year? I know lots of people think they're naff, but I'm channelling my baby-desire into being ultra-festive instead until a BFP gives me something else to focus on

Am off out for the night now with work. Really don't feel like drinking alcohol - don't know how I'm going to get away with that with this tea, . Might just order orange juice and have them believe there's vodka in there .

Have a day off tomorrow for xmas shopping with my mum, so won't be able to pop back in until Monday.

Good luck with all the symptom spotting and let's hope there's some more BFP's waiting for me on Monday.

Have a great weekend

Symptom Spotters:
I dug through an old thread and found my post about preBFP CM.....

[TMI ALERT]

"During pregnancy, changing hormones and increased blood circulation in the vaginal area cause a discharge called leukorrhea. This runny, whitish substance shouldn't have an offensive odor, even to your pregnancy-sensitized nose."

Copied from:
www.ahealthyme.com/topic/pregdischarge

Just another +positive+ thing to look for during 2WW .

Last time around it should up for me on CD26 (of a 30 day cycle)...12DPO.

This is all so exciting today .

Hooray for GG and her award. Drink some champers for me as I will be skulking around at home in my pyjamas, that I did not buy instead of a party frock. I am however going party frock buying on Monday so will look out for said symptom.

DG if this month is not the month may Father Christmas bring you lots more presents to cheer you up. I think it might be though, how are you temps looking?

Pmsl at 'lazy arse' Shazza thought that was just me, although I am again on dog walking duty. I need a baby soon so I can make DP walk the dog whilst I am exhausted .

All the symptoms sound good...maybe we will be on a BFP run. When is everyone testing, I've got three weeks to go!

sounds like implantation glasto fingers crossed!

well done for winning the award GG

I was wondering whether to wait till Weds to test, but thought I should test Monday for acupuncture. Might have to buy a First Response though coz only have a Predictor left in the house and I don't know if those are sensitive enough to pick up pre-AF due date.

I may chicken out come Monday though and join you on Wed.

I heard of a good PG test on another thread - pour yourslef your favourite alcoholic drink, look at it and if you think "yuk! you are PG

sooo, clearly I can't be as I am looking forward to my mini glass of champagne

I would have come home with the PJ's even before I was PG, but think that's because I'm a lazy ar$e bugger

afternoon everyone!

I am in a super-good mood this afternoon because we fond out that my team have won and industry award, so we have some bubbly being brought round at 4.30pm today to celebrate, although only a 2WW sized measure of champers for me

When is everyone's AF due or are we all testing? I am due on Wednesday 5th Dec, so provided AF doesn;t arrive early to pss on my chips this month, I'll probably test arounf then. shreksmissus and DG* are you about that date too?
CBCB well done on finishing the report. Must be a huge relief to get it out the door.

Thnaks for the CM tips twighlightsurfer and your symptoms sound very promising for this month glasto. Bucky maybe you should bring Finn along to the Christmas meet up. h eis practically an honoroary member of the 2WW Massive We can decide our venue on the basis of nearby parks and canine amenities

hello to everyone else.

Symptoms today - sore (.)(.) but then I have them every month around a week before my AF turns up. This has confused me, 'cause I seem to have ovulated around CD14 and AF not due until CD28, but get sore (.)(.) at CD20/21/22/23 when nothing is supposed to be happening . Otherwise, massive thirst (is that a symptom even?) and very mild cramping. Not much really and after getting my hopes up last month I am reluctant to read much into these. They also don't seem to be any different from any other month at this stage in my cycle, but as Shazza said, AF signals are more or less PG symptoms.

Ooh things are looking very good! Very promising. Good luck all you symptom spotters. I hope to join you in a few more days. I just can't tell if I have ovulated yet or not!

Sorry about your other bosses baby DG. You feel bad for feeling that way but it's only natural.

cbcb Love the talk of August 08 babies I want some company.

Thanks madoldbird

Oooh, this is exciting

Glastochick your cm changes to become wetish after fertilization. The hint of blood mixed with it could most definitely be product of implantation. All good symptoms to note.

Ooh - some exciting symptoms here!!!

shreksmissus it is sounding good, but i understand that you don't want to get your hopes up. However, i think that the thread should have a collective "hopes up" on your behalf, thus enabling you to remain calm and serene!!

poppysocks and sarahn great sounding symptoms too!!

glasto does sound like it may be an implantation bleed..

dg can understand your sadness - it WILL be your turn soon.

bucky I have used OPK's for 2 cycles now, and done them at varying times of the day. I believe first thing is not good, but any time after that is ok. So hold the wee 'till you get home!!!

Good afternoon to everyone else

Nothing to report here... but no symptoms is good too, right?!

we're awash with symptoms here!

i've gone from 'it would be nice to get a bfp' to 'i REALLY REALLY REALLY want a bfp'. am yet again convincing myself that vague sensations of pre-AF cramps are PG symptoms. hopefully I'll only have to wait till Tuesday or Wednesday at the latest to get AF and put me out of my misery.

have just found out my other bosses' wife is 10 wks PG, they got married at the end of July. so probably started trying when we did. so unfair

shazza really want to be able to pop over and join you on the August thread

Still symptom spotting like mad. Not as tired today - feel strangely energetic (most unusual for me).

(.)(.) still heavy, and going through a wave of nausea as I type.

Got a question though. EWCM seems to have returned, with a little spotting (sorry if tmi ). Does this sound like implantation spotting or an infection or something? Too early for me to test (AF due around the 8th / 9th)

Thanks!

It really does shreksmissus It's exactly what I went through

I also have the 'thickness' around the middle, and I haven't eaten anymore (well not that anybody has seen and if nobody see's it don't count right? )

So when is the earliest you could test?
