Anyone testing on 11th August??

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

Hi Carried. I'm actually hugely relieved! DP's lack of reassurance that everything would have been OK just showed me his true colours. ExH is here mucking about with our 2DD and i'm reflecting on how nice my life is without extra complications.
I'm a positive thinker and a romantic, so had dreamt of living happily ever after with a ickle baby DS, but it was just a romamtic notion. Not what God had intended for me!

Fingers crossed that it'll be a BFP for you! Hows today been for you?

Poshbaggirl · 13/08/2011 19:52

So now to work out why i've been so utterly knackered and asleep every afternoon for the last 10 days! Vit b? Iron?

carriedababi · 13/08/2011 20:05

posh i'm glad you feel relieved
Smile
your ndp doesn't sound too caring is he always a nob or is he ok most of the time?

my days been ok thanks, took dd to the park, treated her to a new toy from the money her great grand parents gave her earlier this week
she bought a little sylvanian family baby bus

just had a nice chinese.

now relaxing

boobs are still a bit tingly though

a multi vit wouldnt do you any harm, perhaso stresshasnt been helping you?

Poshbaggirl · 13/08/2011 21:03

Smile @ sylvanian baby bus!! Love SFs.

Ndp has always been a nob, i'm just very forgiving and a bit flattered when he says i'm wonderful or whatever. I need to end it for good, i'm a bit stooopid with relationships.
I tend to see the positives and forget the negatives of peoples personalities and in situations.
But anyway this isnt a relationship thread!! Good luck with the baby making! X

MumptyDumpty · 14/08/2011 16:15

Evening all hope everyone is ok.

Glad you got the result that you wanted posh

Sorry about the bfn carried, any signs of AF? When will you test again.

Any one else about with news? 1sttymer little dragon?

Thanks for advice regarding temping havealittle, all sound vey complicated, think that's why I decided not to do it originally. Do you think the benefits out way the faffing of it?

Well I didn't test thismorming as didn't manage to get a test yesterday as ended up having a pretty hectic day, then needing to have an early evening nap as felt like someone had drained all my energy. I am just considering going to get a test now to do in the morning but feel like I'm jinxing things if I do...that sounds crazy right?
I've become a knocker checking, boob poking nut, but I don't want to test and get a bfn then AF arrive after!
I've not eaten since last night because everything I try makes me gag, boobs are sore, don't have usual AF pains, so I feel like I'm preggo, and testing could ruin that dream, meaning it's all in my head! Sorry for the waffle xxx

havealittlefaithbaby · 14/08/2011 16:29

I'd say I'm in two minds about the temping. Useful to know when your fertile, length of luteal phase therefore when af is really due...but all consuming. Certainly doesn't take the pressure off when it comes to ttc either!
Argh the end of a tww is awful. I know it feels like jinxing but you're either upduffed or not! Get the test :)

mammyemcbe · 14/08/2011 20:18

sorry to everyone that was visited by their AF . hopefully next month will be your month Smile still no sign of my AF but im determined not to test again for at least another week Hmm . i know exactly how you feel havealittle im boob prodding aswell. well im actually looking for every little symptom but i still think its my body playing wicked games with me. good luck mumpty Grin.

MammaInTheMaking · 14/08/2011 22:50

Hey, thought I'd just say that I've had no symptoms in the boob area at all. My signs were nausea which has gradually worsened! No AF which was a major give away. And now I can't suck my tummy in. I'm a size ten so can normally suck my tum in flat but now I can't. But there's of course no sign of a bump yet as I'm only 5 weeks. Thought I'd share Smile x

carriedababi · 14/08/2011 23:02

hi guys, no signs of af yet

bought 6 pg test today for 2 quid lol

the lady serving said you do know theres 3 tests in each pack don't you? as i was buying two packs of 3!

will be testing again mon am now, as i don't mind wasting 2 quid

pretty sure it will be bnf.
like 90% sure it will be bfn, after doing 3 neg tests so far!

MumptyDumpty · 16/08/2011 12:19

Hi all, hope you well. Just thought I would update you all. I
tested on Monday morning with fr and got a very very faint +ve, going by ewcm this would have been about 18 days post Ov, so would have expected so see convincing line which this wasn't! Exuded that I would wait and test again Wednesday, but AF showed up early hours of this morning.

Good Luck to everyone still to test, and FX that everyone who didn't catch this cycle will next cycle xxx

carriedababi · 16/08/2011 15:40

oh sorry to hear that mumpty.

best fo luck for next month

well, i did another test yesterday bfn again.,still no sign of af, im pretty sure, 95% feeling im not pg, and if im not i wish af could just come on so could just get stuck into trying

i think ive pribably made a cock up about when i ovulated, i dont think i ovulated when i thought i did.
perhaps i'll get some cb dig ovulations test s fro next month.

if im not pg by this friday i'll definatley rule any chance.

think i'll try with a bit more commintment next month
as having swi once is a bit lame!

carriedababi · 17/08/2011 22:31

well i thought af was due last friday, still no sign, so i think ive cocked up when i ovulated did a test tue i think it was bfn.

will do another thu/fri if its still bfn on friday it must 100% be negative as it will be 3 weeks since swi.

LittleDragon · 19/08/2011 19:21

came back as bfn from doctors but am showing more symptoms:-

tiredness,
metallic taste,
nausea,
boobs are sore,
not being able to eat one of my fave foods (made me gag),
going for a wee every couple of hours,

Figaro82 · 24/08/2011 06:39

Af is still not here??! That's really late if you was roughly due the same time as me. Have you been to the doctors?

I get mine from Amazon as they are a lot cheaper.

OP posts:
montymum · 24/08/2011 13:35

That has been ages carrie must be extremely frustrating. I bought mine at sainsburys they were expensive but eeded them that day as hadn't been very orgaised I have only used 5 each month though so the box of 20 will last me 4 months x

mammyemcbe · 24/08/2011 16:43

carried im in the same situation as you, my af still hasnt shown up and i did another test last wednesday and got bfn. im thinking that the spotting i had was a light period (maybe)Hmm which would be unusual for me and im not testing till my af is due by the dates from the spotting . sorry if that was confusing Blush best of luck to everyone on their 2ww :)

carriedababi · 25/08/2011 10:54

AF arrived yesterday, so that cylce was 42 days grr
so annoying, i could be on my second chance of trying now if i had normal cycles

i told my dr ages ago [coiuple of years ago] that my cycles are all over the place, and iregular, and he looked at me like Hmm
as if he didnt beleive me ut said nothing further, just pulled a face!
kinda put me off going back, although icould go and see a different dr, the reason why i told the dr my cycles were iregular was because i wasnt noritherone tgo prevent my period while i was on holiday, so perhaps he thought iwas trying to get a large supply of the hormone tablets or something
perhaps i should go back, just wanted to have a bit of a go first iyswim
if i go to the drs what will they do?

think ive must have cocked up when i ovulated, but also only swi once was a bit lame, didnt; give us much chance, will try and try a it harder this cycle iyswim

wishing us all the best of luck this time round, here we go again!

mammyemcbe · 27/08/2011 13:55

Don't know if anyone is still on this thread but I got a BFPGrin . just had to tell someone Wink good luck to everyone Smile
