Hi everyone!

I'm 10dpo no symptoms expert increased cm. Usually have sore boobs, grumpy and tired. Strange!

StoneBaby · 25/06/2013 22:02

ninu I'm an islander too. But in Guernsey so not as warm (orginally from France hence the bad English).

On second thoughts. .. I just remembered the worst thing about hot summers. ... MOSQITOS! The buggers just woke me up and have made me start symptom spotting. Feeling very crampy and nauseous. .. this is obviously because I'm awake at 3am and not early pregnancy related, but oh well Grin

Tallalime · 26/06/2013 17:34

2be I'm really sorry to see you back here, not in a bad way but you know what I mean xx

Just waiting for AF to arrive (due Mondayish) so I can book myself in for these fertility tests. DH has still not bloody booked his appointment, I am Angry but know he will get arsey if I mention it again as I have told him already.

Why are men so blase about these things.

Sorry AF got you again stone the old witch, good luck with the extra dtding this month Grin

Finally congrats to the new graduates, hopefully we'll all be seeing you on t'other fred soon.

2beornot · 26/06/2013 20:29

Well I POAS this afternoon.

Not as bonkers as it sounds. It means my ERPC was successful and we can look toward ttc again. Though when I'll ovulate again who knows!!!

I almost bought OPKs today. I think my nuttiness is going to take a step up!

Congratulations to those who got BFPs this month. Good luck x x

muzzy2011 · 26/06/2013 22:07

I POAS today too....I'm only 7 dpo!! Need to get a fecking grip....what was the point in that?! I just can't stop myself....and I'm going to be broke!

Good luck 2be...hopefully your cycles will get back to normal quickly.

fedupofrainydays · 26/06/2013 22:18

Muzzy - I'm totally the same, although currently just 1 dpo and already thinking I have sore boobs and how long can I stick it out til I POAS!

2be - I too was relieved to get a bfn after mc and erpc. We waited for the 2 weeks they suggested before DTD to avoid infection. My cycles have been weird since but I know others who have pinged back to normal / got preggers straight away.

BartBaby · 26/06/2013 22:23

Ha ha muzzy i nearly caved in but then counted my ic's that i have left (4) and an asda one aswell, and im not probably not going to by any more! So im trying to hold out until im at least in with a chance Hmm even googled averge hgc levels at 8dpo and probability of a positive at that stage aswell...

Im getting some strange cramps/twinges/tightening in the lower abdomen which obviously ive convinced myself is implantation bleeding when its more than likely just trapped wind or something else just as ridiculous just trying to play mind games with me at the worst possible time.

Tallalime · 26/06/2013 22:35

I am quite good at not poas... until the day AF is due, then I do and without fail AF turns up within the hour Blush

I had really weirdly sore boobs for a week after ov this month, with a tingly burny feeling and now when AF is due on Monday, absolutely fuck all Hmm

And to top off my glass half empty kinda week my cat has gone missing Sad He's only 10 months and was my substitute baby, I am gutted. Keep going to the door and calling him neighbours must think I am batshit

muzzy2011 · 26/06/2013 22:50

Phew I'm so glad I'm not the only one! I bought a pack of 2 (obviously!) I knew 1 wouldn't be enough....and I know I will do it in the morning and then no more until AF due!

I have really tried my hardest to find some symptoms but def have none! Unless you count sore boobs from repeatedly squeezing them to check for soreness?!
Isn't the 2ww shit!

muzzy2011 · 26/06/2013 22:52

Oh talla I hope your cat comes home safely.

Coolhand · 26/06/2013 23:12

Talla that sucks - hope your cat turns up soon - also glad you got appointment sorted for this month.

Fx for those in the 2ww.

fedupofrainydays · 27/06/2013 07:55

I bought some hpt's off amazon and currently sitting in my bathroom cupboard. How long do you reckon I can wait til POAS. Currently 2 dpo and already tempted which is just ridiculous as know it wouldn't show. But there is totally no logic or sense to me right now!

talla hope your cat comes home soon. Keep calling him and don't worry what the neighbour think. Fx.

dildoos · 27/06/2013 08:25

Talla- hope cat comes home soon !!!
For all that want to poas and think they are crazy I am tempted and would poas today I am still on af Grin
Currently on day 5. 3 more to go and I will be trying smep ! > x

StoneBaby · 27/06/2013 08:41

fedup I would be waiting until 8 to 10 dpo but if the temptation is too big

For which cd do you start opk? I'm cd5 and don't really think it's worth it at the moment.

AbiBub · 27/06/2013 09:12

Morning all!

talla hope your cat turns up soon, they like to be independent eh, ours used to do it every now and then just to keep us on our toes!!

Hope everyone in the 2ww it goes quick enough for you!

Everyone who is waiting for ov, hope that goes quick for you too. And everyone waiting for af to bugger off, well Ihope that goes quick enough too! I think that covers most of us nut jobs in here!! Cd6 here and waiting for af to do one!! Getting so tired lately, think it must be where I think too much feel like giving up on the whole baby making thing Sad im also now worried that if I did by any slim chance fall pg and then we have to move how much more complicated it will become im do confused on what to do?! Confused

StoneBaby · 27/06/2013 10:50

abi take care and I hope af leaves you soon.

talla good luck with your DH. Men! They never seem to realize that if they were to comply we will not be nagging. I told My DH how upset I was not to be pg yet and his answer was it has not been that long. 12 months for me is f*** too long!!!

Waves to all (I need to carry on working)

donnab1983 · 27/06/2013 13:11

Hi All, just thought I would let you all know first response POAS's are buy one get one free at boots just now!

I've got to do one tomorrow to check my hormones have gone down following mc at the weekend, im kind of split between what I want it to say though!
If it still says positive, then there might be a slight glimmer that the baby is actually ok, on the other side if it's positive and I definately did mc then I'll have to go into hospital and go through those motions again, which I really don't want too!
Maybe best outcome would be that its negative, so my mc is fully complete and can start to try again!

muzzy2011 · 27/06/2013 21:26

Thanks for the tip donna might have to go and get myself a couple of those! Sorry about your mc too.

Is it a pregnancy symptom to want to punch DH in the face...he is really getting on my nerves. Apart from that i think I imagined a tiny tiny bit of brown cm today but that's it's so far.

Sorry to hear you sounding blue abi...keep going and everything will work itself out I'm sure.

BartBaby · 27/06/2013 21:40

Did you poas again today muzzy ?

I gave in and poas this morning. And im still no better off for it Hmm ive spent the whole day trying to decide whether the v v v faint barely there line was even there at all or if it was a shadow or if im just seeing things! Im not holding my breath anyways...

OP posts:
muzzy2011 · 27/06/2013 21:44

Of course bart! Def BFN...no hint of a line. I said I wasn't going to do anymore but now I know about this boots offer i'll be off there in the morning to stock up!

I hope it is a v v v faint line you had. How many dpo are you?

donnab1983 · 27/06/2013 21:54

Well I didn't wait till morning, and did a poas tonight, BFN, so at least I can move on properly. I am actually quite glad as the last time I ended up in hospital and it all went pretty disastrously so at least I don't have to go through that again.
Back to the TTC / JS xx

PastaBeeandCheese · 27/06/2013 21:58

Popping by to say hello . bartbaby I got the faintest line you've ever seen the day after my AF was due. It took me until 5 days late to get a decent line. Totally different from DD who had a big line from the first test.

Good luck!!

BartBaby · 27/06/2013 22:31

Im 9dpo today. So be 10dpo in the morning. Still early days but im going to have to do it again now ive started! Im thinking now that it was probably just a shadow or something. I had to put it in a certain light snd hold it up etc to see it Hmm I darent get my hopes up just in case!
