November 2012 BFP bus

[TakingTheStairs]

Welcome to the November 2012 BFP bus for those of us that didn't make it on the October Bus and anyone else hoping for a BFP in November.

Passengers on Board
Taking the Stairs. Cycle 2. BFP due Nov 2nd

Ugh Pixie - your last post reminded me of one of the lessor "joys" of being pg is that you are more susceptible to colds, bugs etc. weakened immune system as your body allows the little bean to grow in you, and when you do then get a cold, all you can take is parapooingcetamol. Yep lemsip is out

My office is full of the soldiering on types who then infect everyone else with their stinky bugs mini rant over [hbiscuit]

Jeez we talk a lot!

pixie I'm sure it was confirmed by a genuine genius scientist doctory person that a cold definitely maybe means your getting a bfp. Or something like that.

Friday it is then. Much hand holding required the other hand please, not the stick one ta

Erm, it's an asdas own brand I think, they also do a winter wonderland which is lush!! Xx
Haha well done #makes u a medal [hgrin]
Xx

offers hand holding to those who need it fx for thise poas if there are any doing it out of frustration or doing it anyway today
Got mw on Friday now very scared all of a sudden...
But toffee ice-cream....ooh :) angie i think it was you offering it round can you send a bowl round here please?

Morning all

pixie and chocolateteabag I could be wrong but I'm fairly sure the basic lemsip that only contains paracetamol is okay. It's only the max lemsip / extra strength ones with codeine & caffeine that are bad

Also, on a separate note, to whoever said earlier in the thread that you can eat and drink what you want for the first 12 weeks as the baby doesn't take anything from you until after this.. This is SO incorrect it's not even funny. The first 12 weeks are the most crucial for development and what you eat and drink has a major effect during this time. Sorry for the lecture but that kind of wrong information could be dangerous.
Lecture over.

I might be wrong on the lemsip btw, check the packet in case, but I am not wrong about the 12 weeks [hwink]

Cd 25, af due any day now really and so far this cycle starting pritty much from just after suspected ov day, have had cramping, servre dizzyness, back ache, acne, pink spotting, mayonaise craving (very strange i know but cant get enough of it and have previously hated it my whole life), weeing more( so annoying spesh at 3am), consipation, bumps on.boobs.

Now its proberly all in my head but these are the things that are making dh think were getting a bfp this cycle, but im still not convinced now :(

Oh sorry x post taking thanks that 12 weeks advice was given.to me but cant remember who said it either, i did think.that it wasnt right but didnt want to question them. So thanks for putting me straight on that :)

It says here the first 8 weeks are when your baby is MOST sensitive to alcohol etc

Wow this is a very busy bus!! Can hardy keep up!

Not much to report here, DTDing just now so keeping busy!

Good morning everyone... how are we all doing?

Taking you are very correct about both the lemsip and the 12 weeks! There are also quite a few strong painkillers that can be taken whilst pg but obvously only for certain ailments! I had a lung infection at 8 months pg with Nellie and had some kick ass painkillers that were awesome! I also had the very worrying time of being drunk for 2 weeks solid (holiday) then finding out a week later I was 8 weeks pg... I rushed to the doc who explained that whilst it was not ideal 2 weeks should do no long term harm it is more continuous drinking throughout the weeks that can cause some damage...if that helps anyone!!!

pixie fwiw i got bfp 1 week ago and have had cold symptoms for 2-3 weeks now, blocked nose and sore throat in the mornings. So def pg symptom!

Ah have sniffles aswell esme so thats another i.can add to.the list not symptom spotting i swear

Quick question ladies, if i have already had a wee this morning but do not drink and fluids will my next wee still.be consintrated enough to test 4 days before af due with a frer???

hai yeah that should be ok for your next wee,
Is dizziness a symptom? Because last night I was wrapping Xmas presents (I know!!) and all of a sudden it just felt like my head had fallen off iykwim and I had to put my hands on the floor to steady myself even though I wa sat down! An i had a little more cramping aftery bath last night but just on my lower left tummy?
Xx

Yeah dizzyness is a symptom angie
I am just gonna leave testing for today, just had a lil weak moment when i wanted to there :)

Angie that was the first sign I had when pg with dd and the only one really and I was 8wks gone so yes def a symptom!

AF cramps are starting. I'm pretty bummed

Hi - well, this morning I've been feeling nauseous and a bit dizzy (but I had dizziness last month and it didn't lead to anything). I've also had a couple of pimples, which I don't normally get. So, I'll see. But the nausea is something

taking my lovely am so sorry to hear that but its not over yet... dont give up until af shows up

Absy fx that its good news soon!!

Thanks chookford, I'll try to keep my hopes up but I don't think it's going to happen.

Absy FX for you, it is sounding super positive.

when are you due af taking ?

bum. Cold symtoms for me are unfortunately just that...a cold. Af has arrived today, day early. It's only cycle 1 so trying not to be too disheartened but it's still crap.

On brighter note, I have saved myself the cost of wasting another stick plus I get to stay on the bus for another Nov attempt - cycle 2 29th Nov. Wow that seems like a long way away!

Fx for you other snifflers that symptoms bring better news!

Sorry to hear that pixie and dont give up yet taking

Pixie boooooooooooooooooo so sorry to hear that!
