Fx for an early Ov for you weechops
Hi kitten hope holiday is enjoyable and you don't spill too much sangria

CD23 here on 1st cycle and I am spotting / bleeding?!! Exactly 2 weeks since DTD (no idea if OV'd tho..) BFN this morning. sicky, indegestion and tired. HELP! i'm doing my own head in symptom spotting.

FrustratedSycamorePants · 11/09/2012 16:46

how long are cycles 33? based on my cycles guessing your approx 9dpo, that's early for a bfp. In my obsessive world thinking you need to wait at least another 3 days to get a reliable pee stick result.

resipsa · 11/09/2012 17:52

Oh God, had mother to stay for weekend then mad at work so no time to play here. Missed too much ever to catch up properly.
PS The invention thing; are we doing that after the film so we cash in on newly found fame when it breaks box office records?

FrustratedSycamorePants · 11/09/2012 17:54

How about we fit it in at the end of the film for publicity purposes?
Hey resipsa hope work settles down.

fatasbutter · 12/09/2012 12:12

Feeling poo today. Got beginning of AF spotting properly now and AF pains too. A week before AF, making my AF almost 2 weeks long since the b*stard mmc. Sad
So fed up with this! It's all such a shitty miserable struggle and it may never happen again and I'm sorry to those who hvent got any dc's, who are probably thinking I shouldn't complain as at least I have 1 (I do agree btw!!) but I can't help it!! Angry ... Blush sorry Blush

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 12/09/2012 12:13

Hi resipsa I've missed a bit too. Hope work is a bit calmer today.

Weather is rubbish today Sad

kittykatskumkwat · 12/09/2012 13:14

Hi fatas sorry your feeling poo, are you sure it's af? I think mc can mess up your cycles for a long time unfortunatly Sad don't feel guilty because of your grief, there's alot of people on here with one child allready and the desire for me for my second is just as strong if not more do this time! And I do know I'm lucky but think I could give another a wonderful life!
It will happen again though, it may not be when we want it or take its time but I'm sure down the line we will all have healthy little bubs again

fatasbutter · 12/09/2012 13:44

Thanks kitty, I think I could give a another a good life too! And I'm so desperate for another to keep ds company - he's so smiley and happy and he loves playing with other kids, and we know so few people round here it's sometimes hard to make play dates Sad
Anyway, yes I'm sure it's AF - back and lower tummy pain getting worse and i don't usually get that with pg
Never mind, must be thankful for all the other wonderful things in life and stop being a miserable git!! Wink

weechops · 12/09/2012 13:56

fatas it doesn't matter how many childern you have already, when your heart is set on another. I have 2 and the broodiness I feel now is so much worse than when I had both of them! It WILL happen again for you. And your wee man will be a fab big brother :)

fatasbutter · 12/09/2012 15:18

Ah thanks weechops - I hope you're right - I hate being so stressed all the time - I hate getting annoyed with DS when it's not his fault and I hate feeling like I have to force procreation!!! Wink
Fx we will all have little babies by the end of 2013! x

winkle2 · 12/09/2012 15:30

Hugs fatas - we all understand how you feel. hate TTC.

resipsa · 12/09/2012 16:39

Hi all. Fatas I know how you feel about MMC & no.2. I feel worse about the lack of success this time around cause I know now precisely what I'm missing. DH was an only and hated it so long for a baby bro or sis for DD. Sigh. Still busy at work so no mad Googling which makes it easier not to obsess.

Kittenkatzen · 12/09/2012 17:41

Hugs from me too fatas Sad

fatasbutter · 12/09/2012 17:48

I was an only child too res so I think that makes me sad that DS might not get one, but we shall see...
Thanks kitten
Sorry for bringing everyone down!! Smile happy thoughts!!

kittykatskumkwat · 13/09/2012 08:12

Well we are getting close to res bday and the first lot of testers!! How is everyone feeling?
I had a weird thought that one all of us could be pregnant right now but we just don't know it!!!
Any symptoms out there?!
I have had a dodgy tummy the past 2 days but in fairness I'm always eating leftovers and sell by date things so could just as easily be that I hate waste Blush

fatasbutter · 13/09/2012 08:39

Fx for everyone and their shiny BFP's!
I feel asleep on the sofa about half 9 last night! If it wasn't for the fact that I have got beginnings of AF (and did a test 2 days ago with bfn) I would have sworn I was preggers!! AF not due for 6 days tho but I must say kitty I briefly had the same thought as you!! Wink

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 13/09/2012 08:43

You are right kitty some all of us could be pregnant right now. In fact the odds are at least a few of us will be.

I have my scan later. Dh is panicking about the effect of ultrasound on a blastocyst.

woody17 · 13/09/2012 08:55

Hi everyone

Just got back from trip down under in the last few days. I think that maybe some nicknames have changed since I was last on here! Hope everyone is well.

I am sure that af is due any time. Have already done a superdrug test (as heard they are super sensitive) but it was -ve so I'm assuming that I wont have fallen pg this cycle -but- -you- -can't- -stop- -yourself- -from- -hoping- -until- -you- -know- -for- -definite-

kittykatskumkwat · 13/09/2012 08:56

Ohhh when, exciting!! I would bet everything it would have no effect, they are used for pregnancy at every stage so I can't see it doing any harm at all, it's just sound waves isnt it, not an X-ray
You can always ask before though for reassurance, I fell asleep last night at 9, forgot to set my alarm and slept in too Blush if it wasn't for the fact dd is ill and had bad night the night before I might be wishful thinking!
No twinges etc for me yet, had boob twinges for the past few days but think that would be too early for pg symptom so most likely ov symptom!? Maybe heightened sence of smell or some one with alot of aftershave?! Lol

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 13/09/2012 10:03

I think the achy boobs is a sign you have oved, so is good news. I wonder if they can tell if I ovulated or not. Only 40 minutes to go till scan I am getting g excited.

winkle2 · 13/09/2012 10:04

Good luck when, I'm on my way to the scan too. It says on my letter that it's safe to do whilst pregnant.

I know it's far fetched but I have visions of the ultrasound man thingy (that's an official term) finding a little sac and saying I'm pregnant!

kittykatskumkwat · 13/09/2012 10:12

Oh I would love that to happen!!
Life should be like the movies
Good luck girls

WhenSheWasBadSheWasAnOrange · 13/09/2012 11:27

Thanks guys, well life isn't like the movies, no miracle embryo in there but the good news was she said everything looked normal.

I only asked of the endometrial lining was the right thickness, she said it was. I didn't ask anything else. Dh just texted and asked if she spotted a zygote? Check out dh's ttc knowledge.

Don't know if she would have been able to see anything yet, if there was anything maybe it would have been too small?

I didn't drink enough though [shame] so she used the trans vaginal ultra sound.

Going to get bloods done on Sat then appointment with GP on Wed to discuss results.

kittykatskumkwat · 13/09/2012 11:40

It would be too small when, at it's stage it is this size (look at the dot on top of i)
Teeny tiny, good news on all looking good
