Red this is getting interesting!!!
Bfp ers where are you for our neurotic rambelings?!?!
Red needs retching advice and I need cm advice!!!
( there's is so much, it is like having a little wee/ wanting to change your pants coz it feels wet?!?)
And you see this is why we can't go on fb, why would I want to advertise this in real life!!!

tiddleypompom · 16/07/2012 14:02

'ello. In teds absence I declare you both updiffed :o

kitty the cm-fest is cause for neurotic knicker-checking in early days/weeks. Did you have it last time? I often felt I was bleeding (oh shit, af) only to find out it was just excessive cm. nice.

red tbh my nausea didn't kick in till week 6. I did however know I was pregnant as soon as 7dpo (I did post on the first July thread) and despite bfn knew it was just too early to test. I got a 'hold it to the light & squint' line at 10dpo which got stronger once af was due. Symptoms were indigestion (more burping), feeling faint when I got up suddenly & dodgy taste in mouth.

Hth. March thread is a scary place to be at the moment but really hoping to see some more of you soon - or in 2012 anyway (like the new thread idea!).

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 14:04

I am like...4 days late. I am definitely NOT pregnant but it's amazing how cocked up my poor body is. I have been 3 - 4 days late for the past 3 months so totally getting used to it.

Someone said something about "if you started puberty late, will that make your eggs younger?" and that just made me want to cry. Since I started at 9, will that make me like...39 in egg years?!! sob

Anyway, I went for an interview this morning. Then nearly missed my Tesco order and been fighting with our landlord who said we haven't paid our rent (proof of payment from 29 June and they still argue it?!!). My sugars have been nicely low today - all the adrenaline!!

Anyway, I wish I could eat a bag of chocolate and make myself feel better. Did you know that diabetic digest food much quicker than normal? I had lunch 2 hours ago and am starving from all of todays excitement!

Nearly typed excrement.

Going to check BS. I think I am low - judging by my inane babbling. ON THE INTERNET!

kittykatsforever · 16/07/2012 14:09

Thanks tiddely, it's really nice to see you back here, I miss the posts of alot of previous bfp ers!
I dont remember getting alot of cm with mc, but i get alot of cm with dd but didn't find out til 7/8 wks so can't really remember what it was like early on, didnt pay attention to it at the time!
Why is march a scary thread? Hope your doing well??

kittykatsforever · 16/07/2012 14:11

Oh and I have had abit of a dodgy taste in mouth but it seems to only be when I'm eating particularly sweet things and it seems more where my filling is so thought it was more then likely linked with that or the mouth ulcers ive had

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 14:19

oh thanks tidley

LOL kick your post made me laugh, who was the nutter that said that! Lol you are so not believing that load of bollocks.

Grin at excrement.

kitty your symptoms are most def positive, I think you are def preggers.

I have no increased cm, no sore boobs, just a heightened sense of smell. I guessed a colleague was eating fish when the microwave pinged in the kitchen which is 8 banks of desks away. and then i have been feeling retchy since i smelt the fish. feels like i need a good burp or my lunch is going to come up any minute.

So sorry to hear about the BFNs. I hope there will be spne more good news soon.

kick no such thing as old eggs, we are born with them!

DulcetMoans · 16/07/2012 14:35

Yeah, what open said, don't we get born with the eggs we are going to have for life so they are as old as we are. There might be some other link between age of puberty and fertility but not sure it can be egg age.

Sounds like you had an exciting day so far though kick!

kittykatsforever · 16/07/2012 14:36

No red it's you who is defo pregnant!!!
Retching, the smell!!
I love your comment and I'd normally jump on the train for a ride BUT my mum had the same mouth ulcers thing and said she had a metallic taste and at 60 odd I think we can rule pregnancy out and I've had alot of cm all this cycle, possibly the epo

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 14:36

Hello is it possible to get a BFP in the evening and not with FMU? I have a tiny minute tiny suspicion that I might be a tiny bit Preg.

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 14:38

Good. No bad-eggy age then...

I already got fibroids which are meant to be pre-menopausal so I guess my body is all messed up anyway.

HOW do you get dodgy landlords running high-value properties in a sought-after area in London?

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 14:39

Newbie - it's actually just as likely in the evening as in the morning!

Why?!! Is it a no-squinting, non-light-holder-upper, pink / blue positive?!!!

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 14:40

I had fibroids. They were cut out in 2008 via myomectomy

LauraPalmer · 16/07/2012 14:41

Yep, if you're knocked up then you can get a BFP at anytime of the day! This time I got mine at ~10 DPO at 8.00pm.

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 14:44

lol i guess i'm going to have to wait for 10 days according to my app, before I can find out. I need will power galore to wait for 10 days. Although i have decided that if I get nausea and the retching ends up in me rushing to the loo, then I am peeing on one of those expensive sticks at home. As then HcG should be detected.

A wise guru ;) said if there are pregnancy symptoms, there needs to be HcG, and if there is HcG, I should be getting a BFP. So hoping to see how the week progresses.

How close to AF date are you newbie

OP posts:
KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 14:48

How many DPO are you red?

Do I need to be logical here or are you beyond logic? Grin

tiddleypompom · 16/07/2012 14:55

We've lost a couple off the March thread - and we are all stressing about symptoms/no symptoms/wrong symptoms. Some bleeds too - though lots of early scans and happy ladies too, so not all bad!

I'm sick as a dog. Horrendous. In a good way I know - but nonetheless I have only changed about a handful of DS nappies in the last week without being sick. Poor mite is dumped in the cot whilst I run to barf. Sigh.

So... metallic taste, bloodhound nose, barfy mcbarf and some evening urine (sorry that doesn't sound very nice). I shall go back to lurking - wishing and wishing and wishing for you all...

AussieMummyTo1 · 16/07/2012 14:56

Hi all, thread does not seem to be doing to well at the moment, sounds like we need a bit of a pick me up, perhaps even a BFP Hit & Run !! to cheer everyone up, I know it would perk me up, all the BFP's in the 1st week & not much since, but Im keeping positive & think kittykats will hopefully give us our next BFP, I think the signs sound good !! When r u going to test next ?

red hope that lunch stayed down ! Are you feeling better ? I didnt get early nausea so cant give much advise, but a few months in with DD i felt throw upy & heavy headed, like i was getting a hot flush & a weight was on my forehead !

Im lucky no friends (that i know of) are at the TTC stage, but i have 2 friends about to get married that i get to get jealous about (13years together & no ring !!) but I do actually enjoying all the wedding talk, but it does get me down wishing it was me sometimes & pisses me off when they tell me i should put my foot down !! Yes, ill just propose to myself & demand a wedding ! How romantic !! (DP best friend's girlfriend has gone down that route & he has not told any friends or family except DP ! I dont want that to be me !!)

Enough whinging from me !! Its CD26 & 8DPO, i was very close to testing this morning & made myself quickly pee into the toilet (instead of testing cup) before i caved ! One the FMU was gone, i decided no option left ! :)

My cousin is over from OZ from tomorrow for 5 days so i think that should keep me well & truely occupied, so I plan to test on Sunday now i think, Im not actually due till 25th July (long lp on 35 day cycle) but that will be 14DPO so i reckon if somethings gonna show, it should hopefully do it by then !! FX

Winkle Hope the DR's trip has been positive & sheds some light on whats going on.

Lisamol Go on the pill to get pregnant ?!?! WTF ?!?

Nicola & Fatas hope August is your month, Nicola 2 stone loss is amazing ? Congratulations !! I need to lose about 3 stone but find it hard to stay away from cake ! How did you do it ? was it good old diet & excersise ? Im no good at both of those !! I think im destined to stay fat volumptuous !!

I was feeling a bit light headed yesterday, but think that might be cause i didnt have a chance to eat till after lunch, i also did get a twinge in my lower tummy but that was resolved with a trip to the toilet ! (TMI) I need to stop imagining signs !! I never had any with DD, so much so, both DP & I were nervous for 12 week scan as i had no symptoms, didnt feel or look pregnant & was worried maybe something had gone wrong !!

Hope everyone is ok, maybe we should have a girls night in on the weekend & all get a take away & chat crap & baby wishes !

Looking forward to the next BFP news !!!

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 15:00

Thanks Kick and Laura oh and welcome Laura!

I know I sound crazy but I'm 22Dpo with very hard stomach and sore boobs. BTW I'm not constipated. I did a test 10po and 15dpo and both were negative. I then skipped AF because she hasn't returned properly since post pill. I decided I'm on cd 9 today and started using CBFM from day 1. Today the monitor said I am high fertility (I am expecting to OV on Sunday). I'm just suspicious because my friend made me feel her stomach last night (3months pregnant) and it feels a lot like mine! Anyway, thought id do a test tonight to be sure! Without AF it's hard to know for sure!!

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 15:05

POAS and see?

No harm in it!

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 15:08

Well we have to know for sure don't we! Plus I have brought the tests now so you know they're hardly going to stay in my handbag!

KickTheGuru · 16/07/2012 15:09

Exactly. Besides, if you ARE pregnant and you don't use them, it's a waste of money!

Newbie2 · 16/07/2012 15:12

Kick well yeah and it's taking up unecessary handbag space!

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 15:13

POAS Newbie 22dpo is long, and then you know for sure rather than being in halfway house.

I am only 8dpo kick although I think logic seems to be ebbing away. I just so badly want to believe that I am experiencing pregnancy symptoms. But I know that theres a BIG chance I am imagining it all.

The retchings not as strong as before but still there. I am trying to keep busy at work but its not working. I am def not POAS too soon as last time i did that it was BFN and then I was in an even worse state as I kept telling myself I peed too early, not FMU etc... all excuses to keep that hope going. So its all the motivation i need to POAS before AF is due.

Aussie I share your insanity! Fx for your test this weekend, really hoping for BFPs for all of us.

redstrawberry · 16/07/2012 15:16

Kick meant to add - is there a new story with dodgy landlords? not sure what that meant?

aussie I'm envious of your visitors, atleast it means you will be distracted for a bit. I need to order some more books on amazon or bury my head into something else.
