Clwc · 24/07/2009 12:25

Fantastic news, Angelfifi!!

...I'm not jealous at all

Angelfifi · 24/07/2009 09:53

Ohhhh good luck pl i hope it's a bfp for you will be chatting on here still, hoping you all get your bfp!! Dh was so chuffed he was at work but i sent him a photo from my phone of the test lol!!! He said it's made his day as he wasn't looking forward to going to work today so he is made up!!

PistachioLemon · 24/07/2009 09:26

Angel, YAY! Congratulations! That's Woohoo! Brilliant news - I thought a BFP might be on its way for you so I'm dead chuffed that my BFPometer seems to be working again (and of course chuffed to bits for you). What did your DH say?

Well, I feel much the same really. It's way way too early to test so I'm not even tempted at the moment. I'm on CD25 today so based on last month I'm a day late but based on my longest cycle, I've still got ten days to go. Aarrrghh. I think I'm going to try to hold out until CD30 which would be next Wednesday. Wish me luck!

Congrats Angel so pleased for you! I wouldn't waste your money on a digi as a line is a line is a line!!! Good luck - no two preganancies are the same so fingers crossed all goes well!
How you doing pl?

Angelfifi · 24/07/2009 07:46

Hi all,
Well i caved today and did a test i couldn't wait until sun!! I had a fr winking and calling me! I can't believe this and am still in shock but was a BFP I can't believe it i'm so happy you can't believe very sick but for all the right reasons!! But now i'm scared of mc'ing again, but for some reason i feel this is ok the last times didn't feel right. Will now get a digi just to confirm but was a very strong pos line!!!
Good luck to everyone else testing, fingers crossed!!!

Angelfifi · 23/07/2009 12:31

Hi all,
pl - sounds hopeful fingers crossed for you af stays away!
clwc - Glad your ok and not in any pain, hopefully get it sorted at your nest appointment.

Well i haven't had af arrive yet and still scared to test!! I am waiting untill sun because i think that is when 14dpo will be.
I feel sick in the morning which goes by mid morning and then at night before bed, so hopping its a sign but don't want to get my hopes up to much!! Fingers crossed!

Hope everyone else is ok!!

Clwc · 23/07/2009 11:04

Good news about your baby, yummy I can't imagine how elated you feel.

Don't test yet, PL!!

Re the bleeding: The only other thing is that my thyroid is a little under active (which may contribute to the bleeding). The GP gave me the lowest dose of meds for that. It still hasn't stopped though.

I don't really know what else to do. Other than the recent abdominal twinges/pain, I feel fine. I have a gynae appointment on the 31st. I don't think that the GP would be able to do anything between now and then, so unless I faint, or experience bad pains, I'll just have to wait it out

PistachioLemon · 23/07/2009 09:01

Hi there Iate, so glad to hear all's well with you and bump - so cool that you could hear little bubba's heartbeat, no wonder you were over the moon.

I'm well, but I'm a bit confused as to what's going on this month and wish I'd temped now. I don't know whether to feel positive or not. I'm on CD24 and feel like my period is just around the corner but yesterday I was so tired I had to have a nap and the old (.)(.)s have been a bit sore and last night they looked kind of veiny - but it could all be wishful thinking! Watch this space.

Clwc poor you. Did the doctor/nurse say or do anything constructive when you say them. Hopefully, you'll stop bleeding soon. Big Hugs.

Angel how are you doing? Any sign of your period or a BFP?

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 23/07/2009 08:03

Hiya all how are you all feeling?

clwc your still bleeding gosh thats been weeks! How are your iron levels?

Lemon how are you? Are you feeling positive about this month, love the idea of wishing our bodies waved a flag saving 'Ovulating!' lol that made me chuckle!

Has anyone heard anything from pme? I'm hoping Jack is feeling a bit better, and that the house renovation work is coming to an end now! pme if your about Hi i hope your well!!

Big hi to all the newcomers im sure you will be well looked after on this thread!!

Quick update from me, had very stressful last week so was worried about my BP so had it all checked yesterday all was good, and they checked baby with doplar, didnt think they would get anything. Soon as it was on my belly we could hear his heartbeat i was over the moon! Then we heard him moving about and he was playing cat and mouse with the midwife, sounds like his dad I'd assumed my uterus was prob just above my pubic bone so was shocked to find its halfway up my belly already and not far below my belly button! Now i know i have a bump and its not just fat! well i will keep telling myself that anyways!

Take care all of you xx

Clwc · 22/07/2009 09:50

Hello Angel, could your symptoms be the aftermath of the bug you had? Wait until Friday to test. Good luck

Clwc · 22/07/2009 09:47

...and a 'Welsh' flag when I cross over the Severn Bridge?

I'm on CD25 and still bleeding! I've also had EWCM for a week or so. I've been to the GP. The nurse detected thrush, but nothing else. UPT was negative (of course).

Hello kel. Have you spoken to your GP about your symptoms yet?

Angelfifi · 22/07/2009 09:29

Hi all,
Well i really don't feel right today i feel very sick and really tired - to scared to test incase it's a neg i'm sure because i had the sickky bug when i ov'ed it pushed it towards the weekend so in theory that would be coming up to this weekend i'm due, even though i was due on mon, but when i ov i do go 14 days later for af - does that make much sense!!! I think i'm confusing myself again!!
Or it could be my body playing tricks on me and have picked up another bug

PistachioLemon · 21/07/2009 15:29

Hello everyone.

Angel, don't test til tomorrow if you haven't already.

Welcome Kel. To answer your question, some tests say you can test early but if you read the small print you can see that they are really unreliable if taken early so if you get a negative you may still be pregnant, just not have enough HCG to show at that time. Or you may not be pregnant but you won't know for sure until your period arrives. Sorry I can't be more helpful! Personally I try not to test until I'm late because it's just too depressing seeing a BFN (and too expensive if you get carried away which is so easy to do once you start testing!). Having said all that GOOD LUCK, and let us know how you get on.

Right girls, non-testing advice needed for me please. I've got EWCM - again on CD22!

Haven't been temping this month so I've no idea whether I have ovulated or not although I've been having cramps for the past few days and had some around CD14 and 15, more on CD19 and now today as well. Has anyone else had this before? Generally I just have a bit around ovulation but not patches of it dotted here and there around my cycle.

Grrr. Why can't our bodies be more helpful and spit out an 'ovulation' flag mid-cycle and then a 'preggo' flag or something later on.

ReneRusso · 21/07/2009 11:03

you can be completely justified in testing tomorrow if still no AF.

Angelfifi · 21/07/2009 09:55

No i haven't tested but i think i know it will be neg thats whats holding me back, but can't help hopping!

ReneRusso · 21/07/2009 09:09

Angel, its probably too late for me to say don't do it. Have you tested already? And...?

Angelfifi · 21/07/2009 07:50

I have a fr winking at me in the draw at the mo - what shall i do...
