Hi ladies - good I went. Turns out I may have miscarried - didn't even know I was pg!!!! Def no sore boobs or anything like usual symptoms. Gotta go for blood tests to rule out anemia, thyroid or blood sugars.

No I finished clomid in February.

Going to chill out this weekend.

Hi Tequila love your name! And welcome to the park or are we still at the beach? I hope your skirts short and your boob tube grubby and make yourself comfy on Dazzas lap.

Have you been trying long? I've been trying so long it feels like ttfc has taken over my life and made my ladybits fed up as well as sore!!

hello ladies, hope you don't mind me joining your thread. reading about the whole symptom spotting and trying not to let it take over my life... we're past the potentially effective shag period this month - need a few days break ;)

Spongerider · 14/05/2010 15:15

Sorry for being AWOL my lovelies - blimmin work getting in the way of updating my shagwatch! Nothing much to report anyway - RT of D looming close, and I have loads of tests to sort out when it gets here in preperation for my IUI.

Hope everything goes ok Iced at the GP's.

God Lou I convince myself that I have won the baby bingo every five minutes on a bad day! I think when , wow I said when not if, it happens I will go into shock and denial.

It's really cold today had to wear my winter coat on school run, hurry up sun, I don't like being cold.

Loujalou · 14/05/2010 11:02

Don't cry muffin. You know me I am always convincing myself that I have won a baby.

Lou I will cry on Tuesday when gp goes through results and says 'no your not pregnant that's not the problem.'

I used to poas all the time but I was just torturing myself so I do my best to stay away from them I buy myself some chocolate instead.

Where is Lia?

I once convinced myself I cold feel a baby but twas wind. I think this symptom spotting should be put in the doctors manual as a fatal illness.

Well you don't need to go near the sticks as am sure pregnancy testing is done on most blood samples. So there. To be fair I am not a mad POASer either. Too depressing to see nothing there.

Icedlemonmuffin · 14/05/2010 06:53

Lou I am not going near the dreaded sticks as I promised never to pee on one again until I was at least two weeks late.

Also had carpal tunnel but these pins and needles feel different, anyway stop encouraging me , I convinced myself I could feel movement in my stomach the other day but it was wind

Has any one died from mad symptom spotting ?Because I know I'm going a bit mad with all my odd symptoms.

OP posts:
Loujalou · 13/05/2010 22:28

Have you peed on a stick? I had carpal tunnel when I was duffed and that is a bonafide symptom. You could have that decidual bleeding that some other mad symptom spotter had posted on one of these threads. Would shut up the ones who ask you continuously tho suppose they will test that when they are doing everything else....

Well Lou my manager at work said in between my sobs 'are you sure your not pregnant?' I sobbed no im not.

Nurse who took my bloods said 'are you sure your not pregnant?'. Dh said 'your driving me mad are you sure your not?' I said no I'm not had rtd two weeks ago and I don't feel pregnant, googled my symptoms and it's was either ms or underactive thyroid (scared my self silly and cried again) . Last rtd was really heavy and a lot of clots so I don't think being preg is possible, though it would be nice to wake up and be three months gone!

Will update on Tuesday when I go back for results.

Pass me a sambuca (or two) and then I'm off to bed I'm shattered (another of my symptoms )as well as pins and needles in my hands which I'm sure isn't a prego symptom, Im such a drama queen

OP posts:
Loujalou · 13/05/2010 21:05

Firstly FairyG phone the doctors in the morning and book and appointment. Is this your first month off the clomid?

Anyway more importantly (well not really) but more fun. I am lining up the flaming sambucas. I think I might have a few. Might encourage me to have some sex.... Or maybe not.

See if I had a funny turn Muffin then I would have taken that as a pregnancy symptom even after the RTOD. Not that I am obsessed or anything....

Fairy I'm with your dh and bf you should go to the docs just to rule things out. I had a mad funny turn at work (blurred vision, felt dizzy was sick) which went on for about three hours, went to gp and ended up giving four jars of blood! Going back for results next week he said it could be something simple like vertigo or it could be my thyroid! I scared myself silly and googled my symptoms not doing that again!!

We really need alcohol tonight the stronger the better!!

Fairygodmother1 · 13/05/2010 19:17

Hi all!

Wis I had been arrested...& don't talk to me about fresh blood. I seem to be finally coming to the end of this 3 week worth of RTD!!!! What an apt name. DH & BF (best friend) are on my case to go to dr. BF thinks I may now be anemic as I feel so tired & bruises all over my legs!

So shag watch is out for me at the mo & I have no idea what CD I'm possibly on!!!

Sorry to be a downer - lets get the tequila, salt & lime out!!!!

Thanks Lou.

I have stayed away from the bus this month so I don't get obsessed as well, trying to forget when last rtd arrived so then I don't know when next one is due. I'm sending myself demented.

They should do sperm in an iv drip, so then I could hook myself up every night!!!

OP posts:
Loujalou · 13/05/2010 16:14

Sending you a huge cyber hug muffin. Tis shit.

Well today I had to count where I was on my cycle. I had no idea. Not obsessing about it so much as convinced there is something wrong or it will happen anyway... Who knows.

Here you go Lou (passes turkey baster) but can I have it back in about three weeks!

Was too tired last night for any kind of shagging and I know we should and three times in one month isn't good enough, but I just keep thinking wants the point it's not going to happen. I know I've got to be positive but it's really hard to keep hoping that this will be our month to be let down when rtd arrives.

Well Lou it looks like it's just me, you and the tumbleweed

Loujalou · 13/05/2010 14:53

Can some one pass me the turkey baster. Think I need to start shagging but can't be arsed. I just want to win a baby.

My backs like my mind where swi is concerned- it just wanders off to a more happy place

Dh likes thongs, but after 13 years one, one c section and a few dress sizes my arse doesn't like thongs so dh has to make do.

I hate it when snot gets in the way when I was full of a cold the other month I was still up for it but dh slept in the spare room!!!

OP posts:
UmBongo · 12/05/2010 19:23

Well tell your back to come back then I would imagine it is very difficult to shag without it!

I am out of luck on shagwatch - have just got snot, dh looks like he doesn't want to catch it!

Did buy new undies tho, having undergone market research (asked dh which was his favourite - ever practical he told me whichever was the most comfortable to wear!)

But now in 2ww so will keep them in reserve till next months shagathon time I think
