If I am not pregnant then everyone just smells. This morning I could see no one on the train eating but could smell a sandwich. today at work the person next to me has terrible BO and I can smell a fag on someone across the room. Hope it's a symptom.

Going to doctors tomorrow to do the retest.

I stand corrected www.peeonastick.com/opkhpt.html

However, I still reckon that an LH surge would not be showing up over such a long period of time. A retest would also suggest that they're having the same trouble as you and, therefore, you are as sane as we know you to be .

How annoying and stressful for you thought .

funtimewincies · 08/10/2008 20:28

Just catching up on the news as t'internet has been down for a few days. Been trying to go wireless, what a faff! Well, a 28 days cycle would mean AF today, but nothing so it's probably 30 days as predicted. If nothing by the weekend, well maybe a test (she says, desperately conning herself ).

Anyway...
Existentialist - ahh, you're in the right company for these moments . Mind you, it's amazing how quickly dh/dp stops being so 'what the hell is all the fuss about' if conception doesn't happen within a couple of months (not wishing that on you, obviously ). My dh has become very understanding all of a sudden now that we've been trying for a while for dc2. I'm sure that I'm not preggers this month (mind you, I don't feel periody either ) but I was looking at that clearblue test thinking, well they want the results by the end of October...

Bubble - blimey, hope that you're feeling better and that next month isn't as traumatic!

Yellow - am I being a bit thick, but LH and HCg are different hormones, aren't they? I'm determined to find out now! In the meantime, hope that you get am answer soon.

Hello to everyone and hope we have some BFPs soon .

yellowflowers · 08/10/2008 17:02

doctor called and.... the receptionist just said I have to go in for a retest. So still no negative or positive.aaaaargh

ExistentialistCat · 08/10/2008 13:24

Errr no, not testing, bubble. You must have missed Sunday's post because of hospital - sounds very scary and I hope you're ok now. Had spotting on Sunday and then proper AF Monday. But am trying to see the bright side - at least I have my period back (first one off the pill, having been on it for 17 years. How did I get old enough to have been doing anything for 17 years?!), and it meant being able to have rather a lot of wine and a very hot bath!

I'm temping and I've started to dream about temping just before I wake up. So by the time the alarm goes, I've already taken my temperature about 15 times in my sleep. Insanity is clearly looming.

So here is the list with me updated on it:
Sparky BFP!!!!
Nelix BFP!!!!
Jools1 BFP!!!!

wasabipeanut · 08/10/2008 13:17

Blimey Bubble that's a hell of an experience. Of oving is that painful for youhere's to a very swift result!

Yellow - have my finger crossed for you, I hope the news from the gp is positive!

Existential - I think we have all had our "I have turned into a crazy woman" moments. I guess as long as they stay as moments not the norm hen we'll be ok! Sorry to hear the wotch arrived but enjoy a hot bath and some vino!

No news from me really just checking in. I am only 6 days po so no symptoms to spot yet! Given that bd'ing at the crucial time was somewhat limited I am not overly optimistic but at least I know when I ov'd this time. Temping has been quite an interesting exercise from a scientific pov!

WanabeMum · 08/10/2008 12:09

hello! well done Bubble i always get in a muddle with amending the list!

Are you feeling better Bubble? what a traumatice event for you?!

I'm not sure whether to test yet. May leave it ........who am i kidding??!!! I'm probably going to test Saturday but that's still only 10DPO so if a negative may leave it until next Wednesday then

Isn't Heeby back this week some time? hope she had a lovely holiday, and hopefully worker hard on her BFP!!

Anyone else going to test with me? are we having a testathon or are people going to test on a few different days?

Jools1 · 08/10/2008 10:47

Just feel a little battered and bruised! Not hurting so much today

yellowflowers · 08/10/2008 09:16

ouch - are you okay now?

Mylittlebubble · 07/10/2008 21:43

Hi Girls.
Well have I got a story to tell! I had belly ache on Sunday evening didn't think to much of it. Went to bed then DD wake me up at 4am by 5am I was doubled over in pain! Started being sick and lost all my energy then got pins and needles in my arms! NHSDirect told us to go straight to A&E! If labour pains are level ten these were level nine, it f*ing hurt. Got sent to Docs by our local A&E who then said it was Appendisitis (SP) and that the surgeon had been informed and to get up to the main hospital ASAP! When I got there I was in soo much pain they offered me Morphine!! I opted for the Gas and Air, wonderful stuff. Anyway pain subsided and after being poked and prodded spent a night in hospital and was preped for theatre they decided that it probably wasn't my Appendix!!

Conclusion is it could be Rumbling Appendix, Overian Cyst or I just Ovulated! I looked on the internet and apperantly some women have such severe OV pains they are sometimes diagnosed with appendisitis! So makng a docs appointment to follow up and BD'ing tonght to catch that little rascal on it way down! At least then the pain was worth it

nelix2000 · 07/10/2008 16:22

hiya everyone....I hope we get some more BFPs soon! good luck to everyone due to test soon! is heeby still on hliday?

Jools1 · 07/10/2008 13:38

Ooh these long cycles are cruel Wanabe I have everything crossed for you and am scattering babydust liberally over the thread

I got my BFP on CD28 - but since being really really ill in Feb, my cycles had reduced down from average 35 days to 26 - 29

WanabeMum · 07/10/2008 13:08

I am 7DPO today and starting to have niggles as i'm CD28. Not sure if it's AF on her wicked way or something else!
Obviously hoping for the latter but only time will tell.

WanabeMum · 07/10/2008 13:06

Seems rational! . Keeping my fingers crossed for you x

yellowflowers · 07/10/2008 12:00

I have to ring tomorrow for urine test results though won't be able to get to phone until afternoon. then I have appt on fri which I already boke don basis that if test positive I need to go and if negative I need to go and find out why boobs been hurting for 2 weeks.

WanabeMum · 07/10/2008 11:57

Yellow that's very weird. Still could be a good sign? very confusing for you though. When do you hear from the doctor?

yellowflowers · 07/10/2008 10:30

Well boobs really hurt, more than they had, this am. So did two tests - clear blue and tesco. Clear blue did what it had last fri which is very faint line very quickly which then disappeared after few mins and then came up after about an hour very strong - so weird. Nothing on the tesco one. Guess will find out when dr gets results back tomorrow.

WanabeMum · 06/10/2008 13:08

Thanks Jools had a quick look but couldn't see anything on there about pins and needles, although there are about 20 pages! Will have a good read through later tonight.

I'm worried that I'll get my hopes up and then AF again. I was so dissapointed last month and we've been trying for what feels like forever (in fact only 6months). I'm sure it will hapen when the time is right. Even DH has said he is going for a sperm count if this month doesn't work because we caught it perfectly thanks to the fertility monitor.

Will just have to await the symptom spotting over the next week or so! My AF is supposed to be due on 10th which would be 10DPO. Would that be too early to test? i'm confused as didn't realise i OV'd so late in the cycle

Jools1 · 06/10/2008 12:33

Just adding - you can always drive yourself mad reviewing peoples early symptoms here I think that is where I might have read about pins and needles in the leg ?

Jools1 · 06/10/2008 12:30

Hi Wanabe - I've copied the info below over from an old post on another thread and added to it, in case it helps Will be keeping everything crossed for you I am sure that tingling legs has been mentioned as a symptom before ....

You will see from what is below, that I really don't think I could have guessed anything before 6DPO, but was cautiously optimistic by 8DPO .....

CD 15 - OV Pains in PM, BD
CD16 - OV Pains in AM
1DPO, nose started suddenly running like a wide open tap (sorry if TMI !) for around 15 mins. I wonder now if that was sperm meeting egg ?

5DPO - Unusually gassy. Normal post ov boob pains

6DPO - Tiny smear of red blood on paper first thing, then a little bit more in the afternoon.

8DPO - In the afternoon, nipples suddenly got really hot and a bit tingly - stayed that way for a few hours. Noticed a tiny amount of creamy yellow CM that evening

9DPO - started getting very emotional - not angry b*tch woman like pre AF - more crying at cute puppies / sad scenes on soaps etc

10DPO - Starting getting mild cramps - like a poking sensation near my belly button. Boobs bigger and more tender than usual post OV I think, but difficult to tell for sure

11DPO - Poking sensation continued for a few hours. In the afternoon, nipples suddenly felt really wierd - fizzy / tingly for a few minutes. It was so strange, I thought everyone in the meeting would be able to see something

12DPO - Watery, brown tinged CM first thing in the morning - looked different to pre-AF - more watery. AF like cramps for under an hour. Loads and loads of BM's

13DPO, CD29 - brownish CM in the morning. Noticed no hair in plughole after shower (very unusual) BFP that afternoon. Boots test was difficult to read, so broke out the ClearBlue digi that said "Pregnant 1 - 2"

18DPO - soreness of boobs reaching new heights ! Tested again, just to make sure I'm not making it all up. Nether regions have changed colour due to increased blood supply - now reddish-purple. Some low-level nausea. No major tiredness, but pregnancy brain kicking in - putting remote control in fridge etc etc.

WanabeMum · 06/10/2008 12:08

Oops! i meant yellow about the GP! sorry ladies, brain isn't workig at all lately!!
