Figaro82 · 28/07/2011 09:52

I am at the start of the 2WW and planning to test around the 11th August. This is my first proper month trying to concieve following a MMC in April. I am already so nervous/excited and just wish I could fast forward!!!!! Anyone else at the start of their 2WW? Hoping for lots of BFPs!! xx

CBDs need to be saved for specialy occassions! Im planning on peeing on millions lots of sticks and when I am 100% sure I will use the golden CBD and use that to tell my DF!!

Morning ladies!

Any symptoms to report this morning? Morning sickness anyone? I actually felt a tiny bit nauseous, which is clearly pregnancy-related and nothing to do with the huge quantity of ice cream I ate last night, haha!

Hi wildwater,

Yep that sounds like morning sickness and I agree the ice cream has nothing to do with it!

I had some pinky ewcm this morning but think its to early for ib. ALso my left boob is really sore! LOl!

laughinglemons · 02/08/2011 13:31

Pink ew is a great sign.
I am eating sushi for lunch because once I get that BFP is about ooo 11 days I won't be able to eat it.
Wild ice cream wouldn't make you feel sick the next. You must be pregnant.

Ladies I am so sad.DH says he won't adopt and I am just terrified that we are never going to have our own children. I know I gave to stay positive and we are doing all the right things...

On a lighter note I've got a symptom! Can your metabolism speed up in v v early pregnancy? I've pooed twice already today. I am v regular so it's not like there is a back log!

Laughing, I just spat a lemon bon bon after laughing so hard at the last part of your post! I have no idea if it does, but I really really hope its a positive sign for you and that you get your bfp! Most people deserve to be mummys and your one of them x

at the poo but I have ibs so I'm no help!
My symptoms remain: big, tender boobs, exhaustion, crazy dreams, low mood and a bit overemotional which is not at all like pms

Piglet28 · 02/08/2011 19:09

Hi, Can I join in please!

I'm testing on Saturday (when AF is due as can't brave doing it early then not believing the results!) As for symptoms had AF cramps and intermittent nausea for the last 2 days... driving myself nuts!

Good luck everyone!

Figaro82 · 02/08/2011 19:19

Havealittlefaith- similar to my symptoms, but ours are definitley pregnancy symptoms :)

Welcome Piglet!! I admire your willpower!! I would be poas already!! Let's hope your BFP in Saturday is the first if many!!

OP posts:

Wildwaterfalls · 02/08/2011 19:19

Welcome Piglet, the more the merrier! You and I will be testing around the same time. I am planning to test on Friday, although maybe Saturday would actually be better as I will be in no shape for work afterwards either way!!

laughing that is a hilarious symptom! Sorry to hear you are feeling down... Really keeping my fingers crossed for a BFP for you so you don't have to make these decisions.

figaro very jealous of your sore left boob, haha, one is better done none. You would actually think my boobs would be sore by now given the amount of prodding and checking I have been engaged in. No idea when implantation bleeding usually occurs. How many dpo are you?

No period yet here, which is very good news... cd32 today although it has to be said that last month my period showed up on cd34. Still, time to start dusting off a leftover HPT....

Figaro82 · 02/08/2011 19:33

How have you not tested yet wild?!! I was staring at the tests earlier and I'm only 6 dpo!!! Thankfully I have a busy few days so hopefully testing time will come round quickly!! I currently have a hot water bottle on my tummy to ease the cramps. I'm milking it with my DF and getting chocolate and cups of tea for my efforts :)

OP posts:

Wildwaterfalls · 03/08/2011 12:36

I am being driven completely nuts by the fact that I now regularly feel like my period has started, visit the loo all ready to be upset, and then find that it is cm rather than anything else (sorry tmi).

I think it is probably better for all those involved (including DH and you ladies who are having to put up with me) if I tested soon. Just a bit afraid to test as 'maybe I am pregnant' is better than ' I am definitely not'....

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 16:55

We are not 'having to put up with you'! It's great to have people to talk to about all the things you wouldn't normally discuss with other people (cm, toilet issues etc!!) and to share the journey!

If your going to test then at least wait till the morning so you have your fmu. I wouldn't blame you gor testing early!!! Will be keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!!

OP posts:

havealittlefaithbaby · 03/08/2011 17:47

I had af-like cramping today, thought it was odd but then it stopped. Obviously implantation cramping! Couldn't run at the gym, too painful! :)

havealittlefaithbaby · 03/08/2011 17:48

Good luck testing wild!

mammyemcbe · 03/08/2011 17:56

Hi can I join too

I'm currently driving myself demented with symptoms / not symptoms had light spotting over the weekend and am now just feeling crap . Am gonna wait till sat to test if I can make it that far

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 18:05

Welcome Mammy!!! When are you due??? I know what you mean about driving yourself crazy!!!

Havealittlefaith - I can't even be bothered to walk to the gym, let alone excercise!!!! Fingers crossed on the cramping!!!

I still have cramping and lots of twinges. I never get this even when my AF arrives and I'm sure I had this when I was pregnant before early on. I'm so hopefull, but praying it doesn't end in a BFN. Will be gutted now that I'm convinced I'm pregnant!!!

OP posts:

Piglet28 · 03/08/2011 18:06

Hi, thank you all for welcoming me!

Mammy - could it be implantation spotting?

Wild - good luck with testing, lets hope its the first bfp of many!

Have - Oooh cramping very good sign! I've had this for 3 days on and off and also skipped gym (too piggin hot anyway!)

My pee sticks arrived early in the post today, sooooo tempted to accidently wee on one but i'm going to wait til Saturday as will get a def answer... hate seeing BFN so would rather hold it off as long as poss!

mammyemcbe · 03/08/2011 18:12

Thanks figaro I'm due the 8th and I'm sending myself mad trying to see symptoms . I had implantation bleeding with ds2 but I'm trying not to convince myself that I am incase I'm not ( that even sounds mad )

Figaro82 · 03/08/2011 18:15

Mammy- not too long to go. I'm not due till the 11th, but I know I'll be testing before!!! Fx is implantation bleeding!

Piglet- you should keep wild company and test tomorrow! Lol!!! Don't blame you for waiting, wish I had the willpower!!

OP posts:

LittleDragon · 03/08/2011 23:26

Hi can i join? Af is due 11th so will test if she doesn't show.

Dreamermama · 04/08/2011 01:57

I'm going to be testing August 11 as well!!
Figaro, where did you get the Internet cheapies??
I'm so scared though because I MC July 13, the bleeding stopped in only 3 days and I ovulated about 2 weeks later. My dr said we could ttc right away but I still have alot of worries as to wether my next pregnancy will go well :( I just hope it catches and the baby stays sticky this time

Figaro82 · 04/08/2011 08:10

Welcome littledragon and dreamermama!!! We only have a week to go now!

Dreamer - I got the Internet cheapies from amazon. You can test as much as you want without the guilt as they are so cheap!! I know what you meanabout worrying. I had a MMC in April and I know when I get a BFP I will worry about it happening again!

Actually ladies I need some advice. Its my Best Friends wedding tomorrow and I am not sure what to do on the alcohol front. I usually like a drink (or 2!) so everyone will guess why I am not drinking and will assume I am already pregnant. We had told all our friends I was pregnant a few days before my 12 week scan when we found out our baby had stopped growing. We dont want to tell anyone this time and I cant bare the thought of people asking me tomorrow!! I am thinking maybe a couple of white wine spritzers and cokes which I can pretend have vodka in??? What do you think ladies???

OP posts:

Wildwaterfalls · 04/08/2011 12:48

Figaro I know exactly how you feel - I have had that problem over the past couple of weeks at drinks / dinners. My approach has been to simply not drink alcohol, and so far no one has commented. Having drinks that look like they could have alcohol in them is a good option (coke as you say, or juice - orange or tomato). And you could always just have a few sips of a glass of wine.

Welcome littledragon, dreamermama and mammy! I think this is a great thread, and we have had some amusing symptom spotting already. I have a new one today: I have developed some mouth ulcers. Horrible I know... but surely it must mean something!

Planning to test tomorrow morning so we will see.

Figaro82 · 04/08/2011 14:00

Good luck tomorrow Wild! Let us know your result! I look forward to toasting your BFP with my glass of orange!!

I am in a foul mood today :(. I am not feeling as confident. I also have lots of CM and I don't know what thats all about!
