Hi all,

I've loved reading all your comments with a Brew and a biscuit. So glad I'm not bonkers and can share this with someone other than DH (they just don't understand)!

Bart

Wow, you soon got that sorted lol!

Welcome

Numberjacker · 18/07/2011 22:30

Hi all,
AF got me this evening, but am still just about eligible to stay on the bus. I see there has been some tidying up, can I be cheeky and ask someone with a pc/phone that (unlike mine) can copy and paste to delete my current stats and add these in to the bottom of the list:

Numberjacker (36) ttc 2 AF due 15th Aug

Many thanks

ColleenEatsVeg · 19/07/2011 07:19

Morning everyone. Welcome Bart and bugger sorry to hear about all the stress.

I'm still in limbo about when my ov has happened or will happen but thankfully have a bloodtest next week to look into pco or a non ovulating cycle. I am still optimistic that this months the month.

spout · 19/07/2011 08:08

Morning all - hello new passengers.

Much chirpier this morning, DS only woke up once. Tis a miracle. Long may it last - the last niggle I had against TTC was that I still had a toddler who woke 2 hourly..

Colleen are you using those NHS-style ov dipsticks? I've been a bit confused by them too. Still testing negative even though I'm convinced I'm about to ov. Not even a faint second line. Confused

ColleenEatsVeg · 19/07/2011 08:24

sprout I actually bought mine from amazon, the sane none fancy sticks. Because my ucl is 45 they opd for a bloodtest around the time the GP thinks I will ov. I decided to buy the sticks for peace of mind plus I had a positive over the weekend so theres a chance my window came early. Regardless I am glad the GP freely asked to test for pco and my thyroid again (I am hypothyroid).

marthamay · 19/07/2011 08:33

Hello and good morning all - hi there to all the new folks on the bus - here's hoping for BFPs all the way down the bus.

Well, yesterday had a really good strong BFP at 16dpo.
These have been my symptoms (I thought if I put them here then people could obsessively compare with their own - always good fun!!!) :

1-7dpo - No symptoms at all except extreme bloating which is normal after ov.
8-9dpo - heavy cramping like AF is going to arrive. Coffee tastes horrid. day 9 I have wierd EWCM.
11dpo - really heavy feeling in uterus and lower back pain but strangely I am no longer bloated. Very sore nips when BF my ds.
12dpo - got a very faint BFP! feeling tired. no more cm. mild cramping and backache. Tired and fall asleep at 8:30!
14dpo more faint BFP. feeling very very emotional and weepy. Have guests over and I'm so tired that I have to excuse myself to go and fall asleep upstairs in mid afternoon. Feels very uncomfortable to wear trousers that button up tight around my stomach - keep wanting to undo my trousers and as soon as I get inside it's trackky-bottoms!
15dpo - absolute fatigue all afternoon. Feel like I've been sedated. Also, ds didn't feed from one boob in the morning and now for some reason I feel like I've been punched in the chest but only that boob is hurting. wierd.
16dpo - fine in the morning but super tired in the afternoon again. Boob still very very sore. VERY STRONG BFP!!!!!!

So, this will be my second pregnancy in the six months since I've been trying. I am hoping and crossing my fingers and legs that this one will stick. What a rollercoaster.

Lauraloo - your symptoms see very promising!

ColleenEatsVeg · 19/07/2011 10:03

martha congrats on the BFP! Wow that's amazing that you are getting strong symptoms this early. Have you told your DH/DP yet?

Numberjacker · 19/07/2011 10:03

Thanks Mucky, and Big Congrats Martha!

BartletForAmerica · 19/07/2011 12:12

Martha, congratulations! I hope you can enjoy these early few weeks and that all goes well this time.

muchostinky · 19/07/2011 12:22

Congrats Martha!!! Although I am hoping I don't get such strong symptoms! Grin

marthamay · 19/07/2011 12:57

Thanks guys! Grin
In the nicest possible way - I hope you all have good strong symptoms too!
I've told DH - he is cautiously excited. In a way, the previous mmc has taught us how precious this is and I think both of us are going to be super careful and protective this time. I'm not going to let myself get run down and DH is going to help me as much as he can.

I don't quite believe it yet - I think if it sticks a good week or so more, then I might let it sink in.

lauraloo09 · 19/07/2011 13:30

martha thanks for posting your symptoms always good to know what others are going through.

Well went to doctors appointment yesterday and she did a test, which was a BFN :( but it was with pm urine so hoping it was too diluted to test been very bloated all day yesterday, hardly ate yesterday as i felt so full. I was so tired I fell asleep at 8.30pm and slept till 8am which I never do!! I'm still having cramps, not as severe as the other day but still there, and not to sound too disgusting but having a weird feeling down below when doing the toilet and CM is not exactly egg white but creamy and stringy (sorry for TMI!) My mood has been quite low over the past few days where all I want to do is hide away from everyone including DD (hate myself for typing that) Still no sign of AF starting even though ive having these symptoms really starting to annoy me now lol. Trying not to test for a few days. Docotr said that if no AF in another month I've to go back and see her for another test, believe me I'll be doing another test before I see her again lol

Gone a bit quiet on here today. I am currently waiting to actually ovulate - seems to be taking ages, I am sure that my clearblue ovulation thing has been in the middle for about 6 days! Surely it has to happen soon?!!!

mucho I'm getting impatient waiting to ov too. faint line on internet cheapie opk just now, but apparently that doesn't mean positive Confused

hey-ho, might as well do some sexytimes anyway Grin

LancyLass · 20/07/2011 13:06

Can I join the bus? I may fall off any moment (see info added below) and I'm actually on the other April bus too but I just had to join in the conversation you've just had about sharing ov info with DH!

I share everything with DH. If I'm going through it, he can damn well go through it with me! He finds it all very amusing. Keeps asking "is it time for me to perform yet?" And if I mention symptoms like cramping he goes "what does that mean? Does that mean you're ovulating?" and looks hopeful (even if it's nowhere near ov day - he hasn't quite learnt the detail yet)!

Morning all. I saw morning because I woke up with a cold and had to take the day off work. I then woke up at 1pm... Get all the sleep in now right? I hope in 9 months I will need it :)

RosyRosie · 20/07/2011 15:57

omGGGG - BFP! I was so convinced I was about to come on, I guess I'm tired and constantly hungry for other reasons....now questioning whether I've done the right thing, hubby says yes, he's pleased and will do everything to help....deep breath

ColleenEatsVeg · 20/07/2011 16:30

Congrats Rosy!!!!!! how exciting. I think if I had the BFP I feel the same way :)
