theboob · 19/01/2009 15:44

HumphreysCorner · 19/01/2009 15:39

theboob-I daren't start a due Oct 2009 thread as AF is not actually late so don't want to tempt fate. Caved in and tested 3 days early.

Well had a positive OPK at 10:00am Sunday 11th so just guessing it was Monday 12th (suppose could have been the Sunday) We BD 08th, 09th, 11th and 13th so I am hoping its all covered. Remember it only takes one go and I hold on to the fact sperm lives for 5 days if I miss my time!

I now have horrible heart burn.. could be the amount of junk food i had at the weekend though!

I hate this waiting, I always tell my self i wont symptom spot and always do!!!

lovelylullaby · 19/01/2009 15:25

Congrats to those with positives, am keeping fingers crossed for rest of you. Am excited to be on this thread with you - have been looking forward to joining a ttc. What details do you need, just usual cycle length and no of days since last AF?

theboob · 19/01/2009 15:22

hi HC .... i joined that many threads getting carried away with ttc that i forgot where i was lol,i will be due on the 1st too,many congratulations....and wil i know your not a stalker,is there a due in oct thread?????

Catz · 19/01/2009 14:31

Congratulations I dream!

Hands off the test Cazza! Any idea when you ovulated? I'm not sure but I'm guessing it was around the 12th-14th Jan. DH was abroad from the 14th so didn't get BD for the whole of the probable fertile time so not that hopeful for this time...

Cazza28 · 19/01/2009 13:48

Congrats Idream! This is a lucky thread.. I can feel it!!

Catz good idea - I feel tempted already, last month I went through 9 cheapies, I am quite gled there is only one left!

My boobs are so sore today - dont normaly get that till a day or so before but could be an early on set of AF.

HumphreysCorner · 19/01/2009 13:36

Course they will let you join!

Good luck everyone!

HumphreysCorner · 19/01/2009 13:30

Sorry for gatecrashing, just hadn't heard from theboob for a while on the other thread but Willmouse found her.

theboob · 19/01/2009 13:02

congratulations idream
i feel the same as you and only really got my first clear line this morning,all ebay ones showed a very faint line,i am in a state of shock and excitment congratulations again x x

idreamofbeanie · 19/01/2009 12:59

Okay ladies, it's confession time . AF is not due until tomorrow or Wednesday and I promised myself that I would not test any earlier than Thursday. I don't even have any obvious symptoms this month but have just been feeling really positive about getting a BFP. Anyway gave in and used a first response test this morning and guess what - BFP ! It came up really fast and it is very clear. I didn't believe it so I picked up a clear blue digital test at lunchtime and tried again - it said pregnant, 1-2 weeks. It doesn't feel at all real, especially as AF isn't even late yet. I'm so excited but also really nervous AF will still show up this week somehow - please keep your fingers crossed for me. Trying not to get too carried away as it's very early days but OMG!!! I think I'm pregnant!

girlwithacurl · 19/01/2009 12:54

i am symptom spotting ovulation pains... even though I know I am ovulating already... nuts!

Will power dust to all those trying not to test or symptom spot!

AngelFairy · 19/01/2009 12:45

LOL Catz... We must sound deluded to passer byers!

Catz · 19/01/2009 12:40

Congratulations Missie and theBoob.

Sorry to hear that AF may be on the way Angelfairy Hope it's just pg signs and AF stays away. I think you're right to hold off the testing till AF is late. My resolution (not sure I'll keep to it) is not to test until AF late, with DD (my only pg to date) I did test a day early but was so certain I was pg that it was only to confirm that, even then it was really faint. Cazza28 - the earliest I can sensibly test is Monday 26th so perhaps we can restrain each other!

I've also resolved to try not to symptom spot and not to look them up unless I've got symptoms that are so obvious that I can't ignore them IYSWIM. It's so easy to invent them I think. This morning I got up and thought 'no pg symptoms yet'. All perfectly OK - I'm only on day 22 so wouldn't really expect any yet. Plus have horrible cold that's left me knackered with no sense of smell or taste (metallic or not!) and I only stopped breastfeeding a few weeks ago so have no idea how they are supposed to feel.... then within seconds my body had convinced itself that my boobs were tingly and sore. Coffee tasted like kitchen cleaner (I'll put that down to the lockets) By the time I was in the shower I was sure I could feel the baby kick! ... Am determined to stop spotting!

Cazza28 · 19/01/2009 12:07

I am going to try and hold out until Monday 26th I have one internet cheapy at home so lets hope it stays in the packet till then! Ummmm.

AngelFairy · 19/01/2009 11:33

Morning everyone!

I hope we're all feeling positive today...

I reckon my AF is teasing me. Been spotting since Fri night, not due until tomorrow but cramping now... Boo!
A champagne, candle-lit bath sounds awesome!
Who's for a chocolate binge?!

eeyore2 · 19/01/2009 11:12

Morning everyone.
Congratulations to all the BFP's!
I just went to give blood and they asked if I'd like to sign up for an appointment next time they come back on 1st June - I made an appointment but am soooo hoping that I have to cancel it (you can't give blood if you're pregnant). Good luck to all those testing this week. I am still awaiting first AF since coming off the pill, getting very irritated now.

FifiOK · 19/01/2009 10:18

Cazza My AF is due Jan 28th and as I have a fairly regular 28 day cycle I will probably test then. I have got a FR early test left over from last month but have asked DH to hide the test to avoid early testing. (but the devil on my shoulder is telling me to test early on Sunday 25th so that if I am upset I am not at work, the angel is saying not to do that as last month I got a faint positive with an early test only to be let down by a negative the next day and then AF 3 days later) When do you think you'll test ? If you test at home make sure you get that computer working so you can share the news.

I am going to have to log out now as my MN addiction is keeping me away from my to do list & I should not be complaining I am megabusy at work if I have time to do this I'll reward myself with some MN after work.

Cazza28 · 19/01/2009 09:38

Well back to searching the internet for every little sign! So glad my computers not working at home!

fifiok when are you testing? I can't decide I think I should be due AF 26/01/09 (30 day cycle) but can be anything from 28 to 32!

Congratulations to all with BFP! And hoping for lots more this week!

aideesmum · 19/01/2009 09:33

Hi all,

I'm trying so hard not to test early but it is getting tempting. AF is actually due on Thursday but since last Tuesday my boobs have been so sore (more than ever before). This is sometimes a sign my AF is on the way but last month I had NO sore boobs?!

Anyone know which would be the better hpt to use? I'm on cd26 of a ucl 27-32.

Here's hoping for us all to get BFP's this month

FifiOK · 19/01/2009 09:24

Morning everyone. Missed you all over the weekend !

So sorry getting that your AF came . It's really pants for you both and I feel really gutted for you. (((hugs)))

Welcome aideesmum lovelylullaby and thegauntlet.

Great to have some BFPs Missymoo and boob let's hope its contagious !!

As for me I'm going to follow Devils advice and instead of symptom spotting for the next 10 days I'm going to draw up a long list of lovely things to do to keep my spirits up if I get a bfn. I am trying to be positive about the result but have to also prepare myself for not getting the result we want . So here goes....bottle of champagne, new undies to spice up the BDing next time, trashy magasine, early night with wine & chick flick, book a birthday party for DS and throw myself into organising a fab day for him, take DD shopping for some new holiday clothes, hot bath with wine & candles. Also my DH is building a new garage and has promised I can bash a wall down with a sledgehammer . Megabusy with work too so this should help time fly.

Good luck to everyone testing soon, mensa when are you going to test ?
