CD 26 for me and feel pregnant, huge boobs, pain in my lower back yesterday and indigestion all day yesterday, very tired all day today, all symptoms Ive had before, won't be testing early because of a chemical pregnancy last month. Doctor advised me to wait til my period is a few days late so AF due next Friday (30 day cycle) so will wait til then to avoid a disappointment like last month.
FX horse I'd be jumping around with even a light line.
FX crossed for you too purpleDana and everyone else on the thread.

WinterLover · 15/10/2012 21:19

mago that's all my symptoms, I'm CD26 too!! AF due thurs/fri will try to hold out till then but it will be a miracle is its BFP lol

WinterLover · 15/10/2012 21:19

Oh and FX to everyone else too xx

magoosmom · 15/10/2012 22:53

winter exciting times Smile bought a two pack of pregnancy tests today and was tempted to take one tonight, didnt feel especially pregnant today tho, ahhhhh roll on Friday. Fx for you too !

WinterLover · 16/10/2012 05:14

I POAS just now and it was negative, no suprise there really seen as I'm only 11dpo lol

magoosmom · 16/10/2012 07:42

I'm holding off til at least tomorrow but it did cross my mind this morning Grin

WinterLover · 16/10/2012 08:21

I'd been awake with heartburn most of the night. Got loads of the Internet cheapies Grin

PurpleDana · 16/10/2012 12:35

Good luck winter and magoo !!
Af came yesterday very lightly, still quite light today which is unusual. But bleeding is bleeding isn't it :-(
Back to the drawing board... Now definitely feel I should never have agreed to put myself thru this again, I just feel it isn't going to work sad

magoosmom · 16/10/2012 13:04

purple hope it all works out for you ((((hugs)))))

DH just texted me he wants me to test after work... day 28 of a 30 day cycle so 3 days early, mmmmm what to do.

magoosmom · 17/10/2012 09:48

got a BFN this morning Sad, 2 days early but I dont feel so hopeful anymore.....

PurpleDana · 17/10/2012 18:13

Awwww magoo don't give up yet.

magoosmom · 17/10/2012 18:36

small bit of brown blood and cramps, me thinks it's all over for this month, oh well, there's always next month....

AmIGoingMad · 17/10/2012 20:12

Hi all! Hope you don't mind me joining you? I've been lurking for a few days if I'm honest! We've got DS1 who is 20 months now and been trying for DC2 since Feb. I'm trying to be relaxed and think 'it'll happen' but it's driving me insane! AF due tomorrow ish- still anything from 25-30 day cycles! Fx and for you all too! Smile

WinterLover · 17/10/2012 21:38

CD 27, no AF and still negative Sad

magoosmom · 18/10/2012 10:59

winter it's not over til Af arrives, still waiting for Af but im so cross and angry today that I'm sure it will arrive any minute.
Hi goingMad welcome! Do you mind me asking how long you were TTC with DC? Im starting to worry a bit even though this is only my second cycle TTC but with the chemical pregnancy last month I'm kinda freaking out that there's something wrong, I had an EMCS with DS and feel maybe my womb is a bit scarred/different/ I don't know!. Got pregnant straight away with DS.

WinterLover · 18/10/2012 21:02

I've got my cycle days wrong, today is CD 31 Sad

AWomanCalledHorse · 18/10/2012 21:26

Winter, are your cycles usually clockwork?

magoo, has AF arrived full force?

Did a clearblue digital, and it puts me as 1-2 weeks pg, have a doctors appointment for Monday so I guess I'm bowing out & going over to the antenatal boards

Will lurk here & hope everyone gets their bfp soon. x

magoosmom · 18/10/2012 22:16

Congrats horse Grin great news for you, best of luck on the June thread!
No Af yet but have had some cramps and the usual general wretchedness associated with PMT but oddly had indigestion again Confused. Have already mentally moved on to next month, have a few nice (boozy) weekends planned to take advantage of my non pregnant-ness Wink

WinterLover · 19/10/2012 05:55

Yay congrats Grin

They're between 28-31 so I'm guessing I'm now 'late' I maybe need to track them a bit more. I went by CM this month Sad still negative. I just have no idea what's going on.

WinterLover · 19/10/2012 08:23

Are any of you using anything to 'assist' conception?

magoosmom · 19/10/2012 10:51

AF has arrived exactly on time, ho hum back to the drawing board.
Winter I go for reflexology and whatever about getting pregnant it really helps with period pain (ended up in A&E twice from chronic pain). I bought preseed but have never used it, going to crack it open next month for sure Wink

WinterLover · 19/10/2012 22:16

Sad AF has arrived.

Just been reading up, I'm vitamin D deficient and apparently that can stop you ovulating Sad

How's everyone else? I'm going to see how this cycle goes then may look at ways to assist lol

littlestgirlguide · 20/10/2012 08:17

How do you know you are vitamin D deficient, winter?
Don't you get that from sunshine,After this summer I expect most of us are deficient in that!

AF has gone for now so keeping my fingers crossed this will be another normal cycle like last month. Going to start using my cheapie OPKs again today and see what happens.

Need to get DH interested again though, the pressure has been off for a couple of weeks and he's developed an irritating habit of sleeping at night! How do people do this without just saying, 'right then, make me pregnant!'?

WinterLover · 20/10/2012 09:54

I had a blood test in jan, your level is meant to be around 75, mine was at 24, 6 months later after been on 700%rda of vitamin d my level was 44 Sad gotta go back dec/jan for another blood test.

You only need 15min a day in the sun to get 100rda, so even in the shitty weather you can still get it.

shellshock7 · 21/10/2012 10:31

Congrats horse Grin

So am on the 2ww (well 11 day for me!).

Not confident really, we are trying the shettles method for the first couple of attempts as we already have a DS so thought we would try for a DD, only gonna try for 3 months tho as really we just want another baby Smile

So we stopped DTD 4 days before ovulation this time, will stop 3 days before next time, then 2, then we are giving up and just going for it.

Good luck everyone on the 2ww too Smile
