Bloumermaid I can really relate to what you said about your sister. I don't want to go into detail but just wanted you to know you're not alone feeling that way!!

wispaxmas · 01/09/2013 10:57

I just realised my last message for aimed at keep swimming, not borrower, sorry!

I want to hear from all the 1 sep bfps!! Come on good news, lets get these bfps rolling!

Writerwannabe83 · 01/09/2013 11:00

Oh Disney - I can't believe AF came! What a total bit*h Hmm I hope you are feeling ok though x

Coffee As has been said, the OPK sticks can't differentiate between the ovulation hormone and the pregnancy hormone, so if either of those hormones are at high levels the OPK will read positive. I got a really strong positive on an OPK stick on the day my period was due which left me very confused. It was only after the wise MN's explained how the OPK sticks work that I ran to the shop for some HPT's and got 4BFP's. Smile

CoffeeGuzzler · 01/09/2013 11:41

Thanks for the info writer. Learning so much on here.

PurpleGeekyGirl · 01/09/2013 11:47

Hugs blouer. Here's hoping its def imp bleeding too Smile I have some cramps starting up now Hmm not as bad as normal granted but still af like, boo.

Kemie · 01/09/2013 11:58

So been having on and off cramping for a few days (actually lost count) but seem to always need a wee-including if I've just gone! But if I go not a lot comes out, but I just have a full bladder feeling constantly-was up twice in the night to pee which never happens! I've also had real trouble sleeping past week or so, and last night I was awake from about 2-4am!
Not testing til wednesday which is when af due, also on hols and oh isn't joining me till tuesday so have to wait for him! I had a (six hour) drive down yesterday, and by the end of it I was going mad with the seatbelt irritating my boobs! Today they don't seem to be as sore as they have been all week though, and not sure what to make of that!

Ok thanks guys - I thought I was being nuts :)

So I have just been to the shops and I walked pass someone who smelt horrible (wearing perfume), almost made me want to be sick....symptom maybe? also at my parents this morning couldn't even face a cup of tea my mum made, might be due to skimmed milk (never had it before normally use that 1% stuff) but same thing again almost sick!!!
God I hope its not all in my head...

Writerwannabe83 · 01/09/2013 12:17

I used to love Tea but I haven't been able to even look at a cup of it for about a month now. Jut the thought of it makes my stomach turn Grin

This happened when I was 6 weeks and it literally happened overnight!
My husband loves it because it means he doesn't have to make me cups of tea anymore lazy sod Grin

Choccywoccydodah · 01/09/2013 12:37

Awww bloumer, totally totally understand!
We've got some friends that little copy EVERYTHING we do. When we started ttc last time, they were the only ones we told just to see if they would copy. Well blow me, ours kids were born exactly a week apart! I spent most of my due date shouting at my bump for ds to come out as I wanted to be first, i was Grin
We were due within 4 days of each other, me first. I didn't get a sweep on my due date due to the hospital being full at the time, i was totally gutted, but I went into labour the following day Grin

mama31 · 01/09/2013 12:57

Hey everyone! Hope you are having a great wkend! Sorry about af disney! That's such a shame but glad your still trying for a sept bfp!!! :)

Well I haven't had any further bleed since that one time yesterday so feeling positive about that but just wondering when to test now....getting itch to do it but know its way too early at 9/10dpo!

Writerwannabe83 · 01/09/2013 12:58

Well, some eggs implant only 6 days conception so technically you could have 3 or 4 days of pregnancy hormone swirling about your system.... Grin

Writerwannabe83 · 01/09/2013 13:00

I meant to say some eggs implant after only 6 days from conception Grin

However, I'm the last person you should listen to unless you want to turn into a crazy, obsessed POAS-er.

ChubbyKitty · 01/09/2013 13:07

I have some cramping this morning.

I feel like that cat..'nononononononono!'

mama31 · 01/09/2013 13:30

Hmmm....spoke too soon....had the tiniest bit of spotting there...still pos implantation???

My feeling is that its an extremely early, untimely af!!!!!! Boooooooo!!!! Last af 12/8...this is so annoying!!!

blamber · 01/09/2013 13:51

Choccy, they don't seem like very good friends!

Mistyautumn · 01/09/2013 14:01

Whoop, finally got a flashing smiley opk on day 20. This is brill as had a 65 day cycle last time. Poor DH gout well and truly pounced oh (unfortunately it was 5.20 am ). Bring on the fixed smiley!

And joining in the weight loss chat.....I am doing slimming world too. Lost 1st 5.5lbs in 6 weeks (not as impressive as it sounds s am a big girl and have a lot to lose). Very impressed by their support of pregnant ladies too xx

mrsmummytobe · 01/09/2013 14:56

Ooh some exciting chat going on - just caught up! Sounds like we could be in for some bfps very soon!! :)

Nothing much to report from me, except my boobs are still feeling a bit sore - could be pmt though... will wait & see! Still another week until af is due Hmm

ImaginaryHat · 01/09/2013 14:58

Wow, been awol for a couple of days and there's so much to catch up on! Only managed to read back a couple of pages but just wanted to check in and say hi.

Sorry af got you Disney, she's still with me too trying to ruin my weekend but Im trying not to let her! Glad you've still got a shot on the September bus though.

Writer, the thought of going off tea actually scares me! After dh it's probably my favourite thing in the world! Can't imagine being able to function properly without my morning brew!

misty that is good news for you, looks like a much shorter cycle this time. 5.5 lbs is still really good even if you have got a lot to lose, well done! I'm not weighing myself as im a bit of a comfort eater when things dont go well, but i get a good idea from how my clothes feel. Have done pretty well this weekend. Tuesday will have to be my treat day as its Petit fours week on the great british bake off, and me and the girls always bake for it and get together to watch it so there will be a lot of sugary treats around!

mama31 · 01/09/2013 15:23

Any bfps yet???

I'm still having very light spotting....so frustrating not knowing if af or implantation :/

Mrsmummytobe any symptoms???

CoffeeGuzzler · 01/09/2013 15:27

I am obsessed with The great british bake off. Mary is too cool. However infidelity has somewhat diluted the silver fox's appeal in my eyes.

CoffeeGuzzler · 01/09/2013 15:29

Why aren't we getting any squeaks from the bfp on 1st gang? Don't they know we are second in line for the good news after their OHs?! Grin

CoffeeGuzzler · 01/09/2013 15:31

Misty, I wish I could lose that much!! It's quite a bit no matter what size you are. Well done you. Had chinese last night. Ah well.

Mistyautumn · 01/09/2013 15:37

Coffee thanks - for the first time ever I am doing this for myself (and my not yet conceived bubba). X

mrsmummytobe · 01/09/2013 15:43

Hi mama, nothing much except achey boobs & a heavy sort of feeling a bit like period pain.... I'm thinking it could be af come to pay me an early visit but time will tell! Any more symptoms from you?

mama31 · 01/09/2013 15:45

Yes well done misty! Good for u!

Coffee I know I'm dying to hear some good news!!!BFPs where are u?!!!!!
