That's it really! I have been feeling a bit nauseous and have been more aware of smells IYSWIM! Sore boobs on and off. Oh please, please, please let me be pregnant!

Random dizziness today! Symptom or no? Great to hear about so many BFP's. Will next march have a higher than average birth rate. Does anyone know what phase the moon was in last month. It's meant to make a difference!

pinkpip100 · 03/07/2008 18:01

Thanks Playing, I'll do that

Playingthe9monthwait · 03/07/2008 17:49

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you rose, try again tomorrow with FMU.

Pink - just pick a thread you like the sound of, I think they're all nice. I am on the wagon threads, a lot of us are now pg but refuse to leave!!!

pinkpip100 · 03/07/2008 17:41

Wow, I guess I joined this thread at the wrong time - there will be no one left on it soon at the rate BFPs are coming! Congratulations, what fab news for you!!

roseability · 03/07/2008 17:37

OMG OMG I think I just got a BFP! FR test. There is the control line as clear as day and then what looks like 2 faint lines. Is this wrong? I do have all the symptoms. I bought a double test, so will test again in the morning

Good Luck Rose!

AbstractMouse · 03/07/2008 16:42

Blumming heck, got a fr and an equally vague but there in the 3 mins line lol. Don't know why I bother with fr the exact same thing happened with ds, but on the bright side they are bogof in boots so I'll wait till sat and use fmu, (yeah right). I really don't know why I tested earlly it's so daft, I don't think I'll tell Dp, don't want to get him stressed for nothing.

Good luck roseability

roseability · 03/07/2008 16:20

I have caved in! Going to Sainsburys now to get a FR! It might show up on CD 27 and I'm feeling lucky! Will let you know

PS I'm so confused by all of the TTC threads on here. How does anyone know which one to post on, or do you all just post on them all?!

pinkpip100 · 03/07/2008 16:06

Hi, I'm hoping you don't mind me joining too?

I'm TTC no 3, have a history of irregular cycles (PCOS) and not even sure if I'm ovulating... but I'm still working my way through pregnancy tests!

I had EWCM on CD20, and light spotting on CD28, but 2 BFNs already on CD31 & 33. I'm on CD34/14DPO(?) today, would usually expect AF to be due anytime from tomorrow onwards. I'd like to think I could hold off testing again until NEXT weekend, if AF hasn't arrived by then, as that would be CD42 which is my longest cycle length. But oh the temptation to test sooner is so hard to resist.

Congratulations to all of the BFPs so far and good luck to everyone else.

GYo · 03/07/2008 14:30

HI AMouse

Maybe try a FR, since they work earlier than others?

Im not really the expert here though!

Keep us posted

AbstractMouse · 03/07/2008 14:11

Gah, hope you don't mind me butting in, AF is due on saturday I think, got a faint line on a crappy poundshop test this morning, which I don't even know if it was in the 10 mins as I just put it on the side. Never even had a hint of a line with these tests though.

Do youthink I should just wait, or get a first response or something?

GYo · 03/07/2008 12:58

Hi Rose

Sounds good. Fingers crossed for you.

how long do you plan to wait before testing or will you wait for AF to definately be late?

roseability · 03/07/2008 12:49

I have extremely sore boobs (I do get tenderness pre menstrually but not like this!), I feel nauseous and I have had cramping on and off since Sunday but no sign of bleeding. CD 27 today, so will not crack and test but I am very hopeful

GYo · 03/07/2008 12:48

Thanks Playing

TBH, i think that the more thought that goes into it, anything can be a symptom. I realised how much I ignore any pmt symtoms during the LP now. Although feeling very irritable one wk pre AF is a given.

I've been irritable for days but then i've got a horrible cold bug thats made me sneeze constantly for 4 days. No temperature but could be why im hot...

who knows....!

Please send me patience in bucket loads!

Playingthe9monthwait · 03/07/2008 10:59

Don't know if being hot means anything but I was really hot just over a week ago as well and although not so hot now, still feel warmer than normal. I also have had sore boobs, which is nothing new, but literally since a few dpo which is earlier than normal and recently my nipples have been sore (which is unusual) and they look a bit different. Not sure if that makes any sense, but even Dh agreed last night (before the BFP) that they looked strange. I have also felt a bit different, not sick but slightly floaty, almost as if I have a bit of a bug. Who knows if any of those things are symptoms?

LBOT - remember its not over till AF comes!

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:29

Hi LBox,
Sorry to here that. Hope you keep positive for next month.

lastboxoftampons · 03/07/2008 10:23

Oh, and GYo, last night I mentioned to my DH that my breasts felt hot and I've noticed my cheeks have been flushed/hot throughout this LP.

lastboxoftampons · 03/07/2008 10:22

Congrats, Playing that's great news!

Hi Gyo - I won't be able to test with you as I'm pretty sure I'm out already My ovulation date was questionable. I had what looked like a really clear temp shift on CD18, but then two positive OPKs CD18 and CD19 - so FF was saying I didn't O until CD20 or so, which would make me 6dpo today. Unforutnately I've had the faintest spotting today, which is how it started at 8dpo last month - so I think I must be about 8dpo today, which means my likely ov date was probably CD18. Anyway, it still sucks, and I'm no longer waiting to test Good luck everyone!

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:18

"trying not to monitor symptoms"

Clearly bol**cks"

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:17

hi everyone here
congratulations to the new BFPs! MKG and Playing (hi!) :-o

Hi LBox (waves) I think Im around the same number of DPO as you (am 7 or 8 DPO today) but I want to hang on as long as possible before testing - not sure of how easy it will be.

trying not to monitor symptoms but i've had lower back ache since 4dpo and now its more like pre AF aches. Also my body feels oddly hot (particularly belly/breasts).

Anyone else had "hot body" symptoms?

Playingthewaitinggame · 03/07/2008 09:20

Congratulations MKG!!

I think I'm next! Just did 2 this morning and both clear BFPs . The clear blue came up in about 30 secs and the tesco own brand took about a min, no need to squint on either!!
