Still no sign of AF, and have bought some more tests (don't shout at me!!! I need to know one way or the other before the weekend!!) I am going to try and hold out till Friday morning though (obviously if no AF by then!!)

It is the not knowing either way that is getting to me now!!!

Hello Choccy :)

Welcome to MN, be prepared to be completely sucked in by it, and to be totally addicted to it in only a few days!!! :)

There is a couple of us on the chat thread that Jen put up, just join in when you are ready :)

beartime · 15/03/2006 16:45

NJ if you're not pg you must be seriously psychosomatic! Do symptoms even show up this soon though? My symptoms didn't turn up till 6 weeks - which was 2 wks after my AF was due.

Hi anyone about? A better day for me but still busy.

Beartime, if you would have seen me last month you wouldn't know I was the same girl!! I didn't even test last month because I just knew it hadn't been our month!!! I can't stand the not knowing business, right now even if I found out it hadn't been our month I would just be relieved to know!!

wannaBe1974 · 16/03/2006 08:49

morning all :)

Natallie so I take it still no news either way? Really hope you get a result either way soon :).

Well am on CD 29 here and still no sign of af, and today my simptoms seem to have increased to include the desire to go to the loo every few minutes. But last night I basically said to myself that there's no point in testing, it'll only be negative anyway, can't possibly be pregnant. Think I've been here so many times before that I actually don't think I'm able to get pregnant again. Part of me actualy thinks that's not too bad an attitude to have as at least I haven't convinced myself I'm pregnant, so when AF arrives I won't be too gutted. I mean I will be gutted, but not overly surprised .. think I'm waffling now lol. Anyway, have put the dates back, and if no AF by Sunday I'll test but not before.

Good luck to anyone else testing

((hugs))xx

NatalieJane · 16/03/2006 09:10

Nope no result either way, and as I said on the chat thread, even if it turns out that it isn't our month, I will just be relieved to know either way.

I am just fed up of thinking about it now, my thoughts change every five minutes anyway, one minute I am thinking no I can't be because of this this and this, and then the next I am thinking, did I have that twinge/pain/yawn/whatever/etc. when I was PG with DS?!!! I said it yesterday but I don't understand how something as natural as making a baby can be such a pain in the backside!!!!

Anyway, it is sounding really good for you :o, I don't know how you are putting off testing!!! I feel proud of myself for managing to keep two tests in the house for nearly 24 hours with out using one of them!!!

wannaBe1974 · 16/03/2006 11:19

well I think that one of the things keeping me from testing is the thought that, until I test, there can still be that possibility, but once I get that bfn then it's an almost certainty that I'm not.

I think actually that our parents/grandparents had it better than we did, they generally didn't find out they were pg until about 2 months, but now we have all these ovulation predictors, early pregnancy tests which generally aren't all that accurate, but because the box says they can give a positive 4 days before AF we buy them anyway. We do temp charting and looking for CM and our lives can become consumed by TTC, aided by the wonders of modern medicine and science. I sometimes think it would almost be better to go back to how it was before all these inventions, because then everyone was in the same boat, and you either got pregnant, or you didn't. Maybe a bit of a simplistic way of looking at it but i think there's something to be said for it.

decafgirl · 16/03/2006 12:08

Hi Guys, I went to the gp this morning and she's sending off another pg test to the lab 'just to be sure' and has advised me to go back in 2 - 3 weeks if there's still no sign of AF for some hormonal tests.

This just became a whole lot more stressful.

hugs xx

Coriander73 · 16/03/2006 12:22

Hey Pussycat,

Not bad sweetie....still very nauseaus but fingers crossed turning the corner! 14 weeks now can you believe that?!

Hi to Peachy & Trace too...

wannaBe1974 · 16/03/2006 12:23

Hi decafgirl ((hugs))

Try not to get too stressed about it all, at least you've taken a step now towards finding out what, if anything, is wrong, and then to potentially do something about it. I think it's the not knowing that can be worse, once you have some answers you'll at least have an idea of where you have to go from here.

good luck xx

meggmoo · 16/03/2006 19:37

Hello everyone.

Am really in shock but did a PT this afternoon and got a BFP - well a very faint line anyway - did another one and got a stronger line.

Looks like I'm set for an Xmas baby! Grin

Still can't quite take it all in.

Thanks Peachy. Sorry Decaf, I didn't read your post properly and feel a bit guilty for my boasty post Sad.

I wanted to wish you and all the other girls here all the luck in the world.

wannaBe1974 · 16/03/2006 20:18

meggmoo congrats, but dependent on your last AF, you'd be in for a late Nov baby? when I was expecting DS, my last period at the time was on the 6th of Feb, and hence my due date was 13 Nov and he was born on 15 Nov. This time my last AF was on 16 Feb, so if I'm pg this month my due date will be 24 November.

skerriesmum · 16/03/2006 20:19

Isn't that impossible though, to actually conceive and then test positive within three days Grin?

beartime · 16/03/2006 23:05

they must have been sneakily going for it already Grin

NJ have you still got those tests hid away in the cupboard Smile

wannaBe1974 · 17/03/2006 07:48

hmmm yeh never saw that message from nelly there - no it's not possible to test positive within 3 days.

NatalieJane · 17/03/2006 07:53

Yes Beartime still got them :)

Still no sign of AF, but I really don't feel PG, I think I am going to put this month down to experience, and let myself relax in time for next month. I think one of the tests I have done would have had at least a faint line if I was PG, so it is now just a waiting game for AF to arrive.
