My boobs are distracting me, ha ha!

Fatas I had a private scan too (at 6.5 weeks after bleed); the problem was that the sac was the size it should have been so I had to go back and when I went for a repeat, it had grown again so had to go back again. They wouldn't confim anything until 9 weeks +. I get why as they don't want to terminate a healthy pregnancy but, God, it's cruel when you're waiting!

Pls i need to know if this has happened to anyone b4... getting creamy yellow CM after ovulation... Is that a good or bad sign plus no boob tingling, just a few twigs now and then.....

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 11:20

Red - progesterone naturally increases after ovulation. At about 11dpo it hits a peak.

If there is a fertilised egg, the progesterone will continue to rise
If not, it will drop off and signal the start of AF

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 11:22

Oh and sudden increase in CM yesterday. Humped for fun.

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 11:25

bananas

CM is highly changeable throughout your cycle. There is unfortunately, no "one size fits all" with regards to how I bodies react. CM is actually quite unreliable when it comes to all this.

Remember that month on month, we all think we're pregnant. One day, we're bound to be right. And then it becomes a self fulfilling prophecy :)

NicolaHazel · 16/08/2012 11:31

Going...I've had loads of creamy CM since OV this month. Ridiculous amounts, in fact.

I keep thinking it's AF, but it is just CM. Nice, eh?!

redstrawberry · 16/08/2012 11:41

I'll bear the progesterone in mind when my boobs start to deflate again.
Although last month with my CP - they were sore, heavy, big then the day before I got the faint +ve they were tingling but weren't sore anymore - started to deflate. So maybe the lining had decided to shed and bring on AF.
5dpo - possibly today!

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 11:47

The other thing I've heard is that when PG, your boobs go from being sore one day, to nothing the next day.

I'm sad today. It's just never going to happen for me. I know it won't :(

redstrawberry · 16/08/2012 11:59

It will kick it will - I know I don't have a crystal ball but please don't lose hope. Remember your body is just recovering its balance, and who knows you might already be pregnant this month or you might even be super fertile the next month!

swimmingnotdrowning · 16/08/2012 12:01

Hugs to nic and kick. We will get there one day and the best thing about here is that none of is alone between here and there! Smile

Hello and welcome to going.

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 12:01

I had the most awful dream last night and just woke up absolutely sobbing so now I've just been crying all day and feeling very sorry for myself :(

Sorry

NicolaHazel · 16/08/2012 12:06

My boobs are an ever-changing entity. Started with tingly / buzzing, then sore nipples, now just aching / feeling heavy.

Wondering if it's worth POAS here or not. Had about a litre of water plus cup of tea at work, plus another .75 litres of fluid at home before leaving the house.

Newbie2 · 16/08/2012 12:33

I can't handle the wait. Please POAS soon Nicola Grin

redstrawberry · 16/08/2012 12:51

It will be diluted and you may not get an accurate reading. But if it will help to get out of limbo land then go on and POAS nic

Kick don't shoot me but the crying may be an EP symptom? They say you tend to get emotional.

I want to give you a big hug and tell you it will be okay and your time will come!

NicolaHazel · 16/08/2012 12:52

Decided against buying one...I'll wait. My CB ones may be at home anyway, and I'm not keen on POAS at work!

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 12:54

What is EP? Christ I hate it, I am just sitting here sobbing feeling very fucking sorry for myself.

Sorry to be a downer.

Nic - coffee actually helps with pg tests. If you have one or two cups, it doesn't dilute the urine

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 12:55

And I am living in an echo as well. Thanks red :)

RIBS · 16/08/2012 13:17

Bloody hell nic. Keeping everything crossed for you and also that your posh tests will be waiting for you at home. Your post about the excessive CM and thinking it was AF arrival, is word for word what my pregnant friend said when she was testing and it took a week for hers to arrrive. She also started having really faint lines on the amazon cheapie sticks after about 4 or 5 days, but finally got a proper clear line and then a digi to confirm it. She was stressed to death, with it all. Can understand not wanting to poas at work.

My boobs have decided to be a bit sore today, better late than never!

Welcome goingbananas Quite an apt name for on here!! Grin

kick when im in a downer I put favourite songs on, ones for dancing. Turn them up full blast until I cant help but get up and sing and fling myself around the room dance to them. It never fails. You do seem very hormonal this month tho, your not normally like this!

kittykatsforever · 16/08/2012 13:23

Hi guys don't want to bring down the thread but just wanted to update you all as you have been with me. Scan confirmed mc, I'd like to say It didn't feel like the knife was plunged further by the girl before me about 16 who came with friend on the phone to her social worker who didn't know when her periods had been etc and her baby was fine Sad
Feel totally wrung out now as I have been a month in limbo what with lateness then bleeding then rising levels then bleeding, plus mc in may, really when life wants you down it really makes sure you are doesn't it, anyway I still hope everything goes well with all you girls, I may just slink into the cod as I don't think I can take trying again for a while

redstrawberry · 16/08/2012 13:24

EP = early pregnancy

redstrawberry · 16/08/2012 13:28

Oh kitty so so so sorry for you - I am welling up reading about it :(
Shit - this is just a shit shit day.

I dont know what to say - it's worse when you see 16 year olds like that. Life is so very unfair sometimes. I am so sad reading this :'(

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 13:29

Sorry kitty

That's really rubbish. Chocolate and wine and COD sounds good to me. It's a good day for it too. I'm really sorry :(

NicolaHazel · 16/08/2012 13:32

I am so, so sorry kitty :-(

Take wine and chocolate into the COD with you. We will be here for you if you need us. Xx

Kick, I don't like coffee. A girl at work stirred my tea with a coffee spoon earlier. Evil.

KickTheGuru · 16/08/2012 13:34

Nic Coke? Diet Coke? Tea should as well
