I totally can't believe it though!!!! Grin

internationallove985 · 20/07/2013 22:08

No disrespect to you at all winterwannabe but I have to ask this "How many more times are you going to test before it finally sinks that you are pregnant,a positive test cannot be wrong, but then I don't know why I'm passing any comment because in short it's none of my business and besides I'm not paying for the tests. x

Writerwannabe83 · 20/07/2013 22:16

You don't know my circumstances and you don't know how much it means to me to be pregnant so I will pay for and take as many tests as I want to Grin

Absolutely NOTHING is going to bring me down from my high, so don't waste your time trying to bring negativity Smile Smile Smile

internationallove985 · 20/07/2013 22:37

I'm not going to say too much as it is not my style to upset a pregnant women, but lets be honest you don't know my circumstances either and how much being pregnant will mean to me.

I am not trying to bring negativity. Perhaps it looked like I was a bit jealous in my last comment, and if it did then I apologise may be I am,do I dare say somewhat jealous. I don't think I think it's jealousy though it's more inferiority. but I shouldn't be as I might be pregnant myself, but I wont till after 1st August that's if A.F doesn't arrive. x

internationallove985 · 20/07/2013 22:40

Also it's ignorant to my future bundle of joy to think that he/she is not going to come alone. B.T.W congratulations!!!!! x

internationallove985 · 20/07/2013 22:40

sorry alone should have said along. I hate the way you can't edit these posts. x

Luxlisbon82 · 20/07/2013 23:00

No disrespect to you international, but writer has every right to pee on as many sticks as she wants and to discuss this with us if she so wishes.

As a woman ttc, I would hope that you would have the empathy to understand her reasons for doing so and see how the reassurance of a confirming line would mean a lot. I'm frankly shocked that you find it appropriate to comment so disparaginly on this, maybe try to be a little more understanding. We are here for support, not to put people down.

Luxlisbon82 · 20/07/2013 23:02

.disparagingly. stupid keyboard.

internationallove985 · 20/07/2013 23:08

Hi Writerwannabe. Sorry I've been calling you winterwannabe all this time. x
Luxlisbon82. I have well sort of apologised once I'm not doing it again. Also I have the right to expect support and not not be put down either. x

Writerwannabe83 · 21/07/2013 00:34

And yet another thread turns into another episode of the "International Show"

Hmm
internationallove985 · 21/07/2013 00:41

internationallove985 · 21/07/2013 01:12

Hi Citygal29. Welcome aboard. I have an angel and a d.d. I have been trying to conceive since April. Also I have pains on my left side as well, but didn't think much of it (I tend to just ignore pains, stupid I know) so fingers crossed who knows fingers crossed it could mean I may be announcing good news soon. I've worked out my due date if I am pregnant I can expect my little bundle of joy on 10/4/14. Can I make a right fool of myself though and ask what is dpo. x

Luxlisbon82 · 21/07/2013 05:23

Ha writer, I'm stepping away from all flammable substances! Massive congrats anyhow, I'm glad all the peeing was worth it.

Hi citygal, I have 2,
how many dpo are you now?

Vikkijayne2507 · 21/07/2013 09:40

Dpo is days past ovulation. I am on day 2 am already willing the days away

internationallove985 · 21/07/2013 09:46

Thank you vickyjayne. xx

CityGal29 · 21/07/2013 19:07

Hiya think I'm 7/8 dpo, cycles can be 27/28 days. Did a pg test at lunchtime and neg but way too early, just a bit stupid!!

Think as DH was panicking about the impact etc wanted to know but it's 7 days before so no test would pick it up?

Left side pains sound promising!! Good luck!!

Grin
Sparrowlegs248 · 21/07/2013 19:38

Excuse my complete ignorance - when can you reliably test? On a 28 - 30 day cycle? New to all this......

Writerwannabe83 · 21/07/2013 20:15

I started testing a week before my period was due. This is because some tests can detect the pregnancy hormone as early as 6 days post ovulation, which is typically a week before your period is expected.

I didn't get my BFP's until the day before my period was due though x

ClutchingMyPearls · 21/07/2013 20:53

Hi ladies, been lurking in this thread as I'm in the same position as you all.

AF is/was due tomorrow or Tuesday. I couldn't wait and took a clear blue test Wednesday morning which was 1-2 positive. I'm over the bloody moon!

BUT I can't stop worrying about chemical pregnancy which I've read about. Is it common? I'm freaking myself out and just can't relax thinking AF is going to appear tomorrow.

Congrats for you guys with BFP, lovely to read down and see you got it Smile

Writerwannabe83 · 21/07/2013 21:06

I've been worrying about chemical pregnancy for most of the day - I have actually taken 5 pregnancy tests in order to try and reassure myself.

Everyone told me to just relax, so that's what I'm trying to do.

Just stay positive and enjoy each day of being pregnant - as a wise owl said to me earlier Smile

ClutchingMyPearls · 21/07/2013 21:09

Thank you Writer. Yes must chill out! No point winding myself up over something I can't control.

Definitelysometime · 21/07/2013 22:06

Hi clutching. I'm just the same - got my BFP yesterday but convinced it must be a chemical. Don't feel at all pregnant. I'm sure I'll miss this feeling though when the sickness kicks in Grin

Here's hoping for a healthy 9 months and bouncing babies for us all!

Vikkijayne2507 · 24/07/2013 07:22
