Am driving myself mad....

Symptom spotting - not due for at least another 3 days (only had one cycle since m/c in June so not quite sure) but just caved and did a HPT. BFN obviously.

But - waking most nights to go to the loo (which I never do) and could smell the red bull that someone was drinking near me on the bus the other morning. Am also feeling v sicky of an evening (had that with last pg, but clearly didn't end well )

I promised DH I'd try not to get so obsessed about getting pg again after the m/c but it's very difficult!!

Anyone else need to stay away from the clearblue for a few more days?

No judgement from me . Maybe we should call the thread "A home for those with no willpower" (watch out for it next month when I'm back on the 2ww)

Fingers crossed for a BFP tomorrow for you...

I am cr@p I know but just cracked open the Fr and got a ................BFN am surprised though as i have felt so sick on and off today and feel very pg just like with DS so perhaps its just too early? Will do another on Sunday morning to be sure but not a good end to the day - good luck for everyone tomorrow!

I consider myself suitably slapped Sparky .

I'm so annoyed with myself! Dh has made me promise that I'll test with him there on Monday if nothing has happened AF-wise in the meantime.

ontheup · 08/08/2008 19:29

funtime and sparky for AF - hope you are both enjoying a glass of wine tonight. May is a good baby popping month i agree, you get the best of the summer at home!

I have spent today feeling sick with v sore (.)(.) so am hopeful but tried a boots cheepie test today and again it didnt work in that no lines came up at all!!! Am jinxed. So have boout a FR and will try to hold off until tomorrow......nelix how do you manage the wilpower!!!!

Hi sparky...I am sorry to hear about your AF! she has no right visiting lol!....may is a fab time to have a baby!.....if I am pregnant...mine will be due in april and wow an aries.....i am an aries...we will lock horns!!! my ds is aquarius so we get on great lol! Have fun at reflexology!

Yeah Heeby you ok??

funtimes I am not testing until sunday now....i figure if I can push it off a day at a time the more likely I am to get a real result....tho the urge to test now is HUGE lol!

funtimewincies · 08/08/2008 10:36

Also have no will-power . Ds is at Grandmas's so went out and bought a test (from a very pregnant lady in Boots - very surreal) despite it being either 3 or 5 days until AF.

BFN . Good luck for tomorrow Nelix.

I'm out AF here.

On the plus side (sorry, I'm generally a glass half full person!) it does mean my cycle is 28 days exactly for the first time since mc - which gives me more hope for next month!

Right - reflexology booked for tomorrow and I think May is a lovely month to have a baby

Anyone else around? Heeby? bit worried about you.....

Good girl sparky, i'm very proud of you ... said in a very non-patronising way!

I am feeling really yuk this afternoon, my back hurts more today and i am feeling a little feverish - so quite likely to be an infection somewhere and not a bub sadly.

Really sorry about AF eth, but look at it in that this is Day1!!! hurrah!

nelix i totally agree with your DP, she should totally be there to fan you with palm leaves and bring you chocolates1

Will report back later after Docs x

Heeby - My arm is properly twisted. Will wait til Saturday if no AF tomorrow (and I don't have any fingers crossed whilst I type!! )

eth - sorry it didn't work this month..

nelix2000 · 07/08/2008 13:57

oh eth hug!!.....always next month tho!!!
thanks heeby CB it is.....my DP has persuaded me to wait until sunday!!!!!!
grrrrr lol...a reasonable request since she is working 9am-9pm sat and if its a pos she wants to be home to fuss over me!!!...so i can wait till sunday...i think.......

eth37 · 07/08/2008 12:03

Hey - AF for me, I'm afraid so nothing for me this time!! Good luck Nelix for Saturday!!

Heeby have you tested today?

Sparky - I am exactly like you!! Bl**dy tests.....

Heebychick · 07/08/2008 10:57

I will be sure to let you know, and no you are not too old to stamp your feet!! tee hee!

If it helps i like the CB normal tests (not digi), good luck on Sat tho!

nelix2000 · 07/08/2008 10:54

I will wait until saturday......ugh...do I have to??? am I tol old to stomp my feet??
Not sure which test to use sparky maybe asda and boots etc should do a ttc lucky bag of tests!!!!
heeby let us know how you get on!!!

Has anyone else tested today????

Heebychick · 07/08/2008 10:26

Hey lets hope so!! We are that 0.2% of women!!

I am feeling ok, bit resigned to the fact of being not PG now, but then as soon as i think that someone else posts a message saying ' i didn't know until i was 8 weeks!! argh!

I am quite positive really, we've pretty much decided to hold of ttc until the autumn/winter as my job is busy in the summer so didn't really want a summer baby.

so will you wait until Saturday now? (heeby is holding your arm behind back now)

Thank you Heeby - am laughing at my smacked hand! Yes AF should come tomorrow if I have a 28 day cycle but thought I ovulated 14 days ago so expected I'd know by now (both other pgs I got a BFP the day before AF was due). Think I am kidding myself this month. (or am I trying to bluff myself)

Sorry about your BFN again (I used a CB digi too) - and good luck at the doctors. Fingers crossed you get some answers. How are you feeling today? Any better? Let us know how you get on won't you.

Maybe we are all up the pole and we have just been buying duff HPTs

Heebychick · 07/08/2008 08:57

Good morning

((((smack hand for sparky)))) why oh why do we do it to ourselves!!! I'm sorry about your BFN tho, but you are not due till tomorrow is that right? so it is early. what test did you use?

I got a BFN again this morn, the CB Digi i had left. so am off to Dr at 4.30pm today to get some answers, i am positive (excuse the pun) i'm not PG but am quite worried why i feel so crook.

Now sparky you have to wait for at least 2 days now!!

SparkyMalarky · 07/08/2008 08:27

OK - just to confirm I have no self control. Felt really sick again last night so tested this morning and BFN. Bugger. I really think I might not be pg and have spent the last week building myself up for failure (I don't like those heights either!!)

Why am I doing this to myself?

Right, slight whinge over - do we have any good news yet ladies?
