Who's testing round about 21st of July? Fancy being mental together?

Ok so best guess is OV sometime in the past 3 days. Should really wait until 21st to test going by previous cycle length.

I'm not a good 2 week waiter. Am impatient and mental and a particularly avid symptom spotter. Please come and keep me company in this fortnight of doom...........

I know, Lisa, but I've been so dehydrated with a nasty tasting mouth since Tuesday. Probably just not enough fluid generally!

I used to ov 17/19 before dd, last month got pos opk cd23 but that was after mc so not reliable to use and I had af only 10 days after, if itd been cd17 etc I wouldn't doubt it but 15 seemed early and now this??
Dh has made it very clear he's not in the mood tonight Sad I hate knowing this extra info now it does cause more stress and what does this mean etc etc I only ever used to rely on opk results but I have read stress and illness can delay ov even after a opk detects a surge

Very glad I'm not going to be the only one POAS left right and centre next week! Reckon I can hold out til Monday. It'll be a Monday morning blues treat to cheer me up! I have got SUCH a stinking cold today so I'm really hoping my poor immune system is asleep to protect a little wee bean in there but god knows what's going on. Roll on Monday!!!

Love the random symptoms kids. My groins are still really crampy. A bit like pulled muscles. If this isn't a BFP this month then I fear my legs might be about to drop off!

DulcetMoans · 12/07/2012 19:56

Sounds like there will be a few of us POAS, hoping for BFP or confused about our weird symptoms! Ulcers, groin ache and dirty mouth... Such a healthy bunch!!

NicolaHazel · 12/07/2012 20:43

Ooh, Camel, a crampy groin?! I'm loving all these symptoms!

And don't worry Lisa, I certainly didn't take offence. It is horrible though! :-/

I'm going to be POAS crazy next week...Monday should be about 12 DPO, I think.

I have decided I'm NOT pregnant again today though!

kittykatsforever · 12/07/2012 22:39

Ok panic over, seduced dh! Just incase Grin
Is it bad that the thing I'm most bothered about is that I thought I could maybe poas this weekend and now I know I'll probably have to wait til next week Sad lol
Stupid body!!!
Loving all the cramps and dirty moths etc, keep it comming, I think my EWCM was maybe a pg symptom, it makes more sence surly Grin

kittykatsforever · 12/07/2012 22:40

Oh but still no cb stuff, I really thought I'd have it by now Sad

It is an odd one, Lisa!

My boobs have joined in the party today, as well as mild constant nausea. If I'm not pregnant, my body is being rather cruel to me!

I'm testing tomorrow at 10 DPO, Lisa, for exactly the same reason. Hoping if I am it will show as I don't want to go and get steaming drunk - which is the plan - unless I'm not pregnant.

kittykatsforever · 13/07/2012 07:18

I'm now sure what a dirty moth is but I'm sure if we look hard enough one of us will have one as a symptom !! ( silly iPhone!)
Ooh nicola this sounds very promising!!! I'm abit peved that if ov was last thur I could have poas this weekend, like you would have been dpo10 on sat but now it looks like I'll have to wait till actual af due date!! Gutted
I'm not feeling that positive this month what with all the uncertainty, wish I had sore boobs!! How's that for a strange sentence

NicolaHazel · 13/07/2012 07:26

I am talking myself down right now...repeating 'I am NOT pregnant' to myself!

We shall see, no doubt.

You can have sore boobs. It's odd. Never had it before!!

washngo · 13/07/2012 07:44

I'm testing on 21st! I have promised dh I will NOT spend a fortune on tests this time so HAVE to wait til then....or maybe the day before...or the day before that??

Nicola I have had it before but only while pg with dd and about 6-8 wks in, not too sure, and when I say sore still not really I.e I hadn't linked it to being pregnant, I just thought they had gone bigger and once or twice they felt abit tingely, and that was literally the only thing I had and that was only once or twice!
If I got it though I souls defo think I was pg though as never had it at any other time, my af is a hit and run, no warning!!

NicolaHazel · 13/07/2012 08:07

My AF is the same...I cramp exactly as it starts and finish abruptly too!

I just feel a bit odd really. But there's loads of germs going round our office, so I suppose it could be that. If I'm going to be rational about it.

More CM today, tinged slightly with pink. Not sure that's a good sign!

They haven't bothered ringing me back :-(

washngo · 13/07/2012 18:55

OK, think this is a bit odd, but my lower tummy about 5 days ago went all hard, like a contraction. Didn't hurt, just suddenly went hard? Does this mean anything? If so what does this meeeeaaaaannn? Was it just a bit of undigested cake working it's way round? Can't see myself holding off testing for a whole WEEK (and a bit!)!
