so it could be a 6 person test-fest at the end of the week

I am still smiling from Nelix's news

Still feeling like someone is trying to poke me in the belly button with a warm poker. Boobs still huge - noticeably, embarrassingly so at the gym ! I couldn't face them bouncing round during my Body Combat class, so skipped that one and just did Body Balance after - really relaxing

Ooh this thread is getting so exciting! we need more BFP's though. Yes funtime i'll be here to test with you! Again not actually sure when my AF is due but it's around that time too.

Well ladies, I enjoyed my alcohol and caffeine over the weekend but am now back onto decaff and nil alcohol, and yes the lovely grapefruit juice will be coming out soon too. oh joy.

funtimewincies · 15/09/2008 19:37

Wow, I go away from the computer for the day! Congratulations Nelix !!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooooh Jools, good things coming in threes maybe? .

Welcome newcomers and to add to the list, AF due 10th October, I think. Although this month is highly unlikely unfortunately, so I'll still be around to keep any others company for November testing.

(skips off happily feeling all warm and fuzzy after Nelix's news )

Hi ladies!

Congratulatins to all the bfp-ers

I am due to test on Wednesday/Thursday so would love to join your little gang in the run up please?

Sypmtom spotting already . I have enlarged (.)(.)'s with some leakage(tmi) also a ridiculous amount of headaches and positive opks lol.

Good luck everyone x

simpletwistoffate · 15/09/2008 16:58

today is dragging so much. going to be a long week!

at least at the moment I have hope...

dh doesn't see it as a big deal as we've only recently started trying again, but I think its because I really feel that there is something up...

at least when I arrive in work tomorrow is a day nearer thursday.

nelix2000 · 15/09/2008 16:36

wasabipeanut · 15/09/2008 14:45

Hi again all,

Jools your symptoms certainly sound promising. I haven't got sore boobs or anything but then I didn't last time.

Nothing at all today really. Whether thats good or bad I have no idea. I actually pulled out a test this morning but then put it back!

Hello Simpletest - so I think thats you, me and Jools in the "due Thursday" club!

SparkyMalarky · 15/09/2008 13:41

OMG - I don't check in for 5 hours and........

NELIX HOOORRRRRAAAAYYYYYY

Right ladies, we're on a roll! Jools you're next I'm sure

Nelix - I won't start a new thread in Pregnancy until you've tested again (a hundred times if you're like me!!) (did you use your fancy clearblue digital thingy?) Have you worked out your due date?

Hello all newbies ....this seems to be a lucky thread

Heeby - I hope you shall all be joining us on the same thread - we shall create one for May/June babies for mummies with a love of grapefruit juice and test destroying!

yellowflowers · 15/09/2008 13:09

wow nelix fab news - so pleased. bizarrely I got loads of ewcm on sat a week after I thought I had ovulated. we did bd sat night so maybe caught it in time but maybe too late (hadn't since Mon). But very odd. Maybe the grapefruit jiuce did work after all, just a week late.

Jools1 · 15/09/2008 12:51

Welcome simpletwistoffate

There are a few of us sitting on our hands, trying not to test until later in the week so pull up a chair and join us

Symptoms sounds promising - and I guess you know what you are looking for I am trying for my first (at age 38 - eeek !)

simpletwistoffate · 15/09/2008 12:38

Hi there,

do you mind if i join? just started reading this forum today.

ttc #2, dd1 13months.

due af on thursday, but over the past few days have had some symptoms, nausea, strange taste in mouth, some pain in side where i deffo ovulated.

i couldn't resist doing a test, and got bfn this morning using 1st response test.
going to try not to test now til friday, but its really hard. Didnt get postive test on dd until 3 days after af due, so dont know why i tested today - just couldnt wait.

good luck to all other testers too, and baby dust to anyone else trying.

Jools1 · 15/09/2008 12:33

Interesting Nelix

Well I thought I had faint cramps on Tuesday evening, and thought I had red spotting sometime last week but was trying not to obsess as I've been let down before.

Same day as you - Sat, in the afternoon, my nipples suddenly went really hot and almost itchy. My boobs have continued to swell and I'm beginning to think that they are bigger and more tender than they usually are pre-AF.

Today, I feel kind of odd - heavy down below, with vague pulling sensations now and again. I've been to the loo 6 times in 6 hours and, on one of those visits, got hit by a wave of nausea.

I'm trying to be objective and sensible - I had nausea and dizziness during the last 2WW and it came to nothing. This does seem to be a large collection of imaginary symptoms though, so I'm wondering what the rest of the day will bring.

If we both felt our boobs go strange on Saturday, maybe we are pretty much in synch - you can tell me what happens next

nelix2000 · 15/09/2008 12:26

I really dont think I had symptoms jools I felt a cramp or two 6 days after insem....then my boobs got reeeeeeally tender on saturday night....and yesterday and today like a tightening across my uterus. Thats it really as I pee all the time anyway lol thats never a symptom for me. I was so convinced it hadnt worked I never looked hard to see any you know??

what have you felt so far?

OP posts:
Jools1 · 15/09/2008 12:19

So Nelix - if you look back now, what were your symptoms ? - just the dragging feeling, or something more ??

WanabeMum · 15/09/2008 12:18

WOW congratulations Nelix we all knew you would be next (secretly) you are so in tune with your body it's amazing.

I'm so very pleased for you!

C'mon Jools another BFP would be a fantastic way to finish this thread. And good luck to our newest member wasabipeanut too!

Hopefully the rest of us will be following in your footsteps next month ladies

nelix2000 · 15/09/2008 12:02

Thankyou everyone....it feels so strange!....I knew we had timed it right but never held out much hope to avoid dissapointment! I guess tho, without access to regular sperm we had no choice but to be very very in tune with my cycle!

I will test again on thursday when AF is/was due to be sure....I am still have the odd tugging sensation down below.....oooh come on ladies lets have some more!!!!

so whos testing midweek???

OP posts:
Jools1 · 15/09/2008 11:06

Welcome Wasabipeanut

I did try to reply earlier but internet went down at work !!

Yes, would love to have a test buddy

I'm wondering whether I really can hold out till Friday - more pulling sensations today, I've been to the loo 5 times since 6.30am and the last time I went to the bathroom, I was suddenly overwhelmed by a wave of nausea.

Cautiously getting my hopes up now - surely my body can't imagine all these symptoms, especially my enormous sore boobs !

Heebychick · 15/09/2008 10:33

Hi wasabi i'm sure jools would love a buddy as she seems to be alone now that nelix has her wonderful news!

Good luck with your test, fingers crossed for you!

wasabipeanut · 15/09/2008 10:32

Hi, anyone mind If I join? Jools mentioned to me that there would be e bif if a group test mid week and I am deperately trying to hold out! Due Thursday but have usually had some spotting by now and nothing yet.

Am imagining several symptoms already.

Congrats Nelix!!

Heebychick · 15/09/2008 10:21

nelix WOW WOW WOW WOW that is soooo amazing!!! See you did have it right all along! well done both of you.

Really pleased for you!

jools this absolutely is a good omen!

Jools1 · 15/09/2008 09:45

OMG Nelix

So, so , so happy for you

This is definitely a good omen for the week - and now my colleagues are asking me why I'm grinning like a loon !!

Am imagining feeling definite pulling sensations down below this morning ...

nelix2000 · 15/09/2008 09:37
