MrsB2013 · 07/10/2013 15:29

I think I'll talk dh into it as much as we can this week.

I'm guessing his little swimmers are ok he did get an ex pg years ago but she terminated but suppose you never know unless you have tests done!

Actually has anyone seen that test Boots are selling, its a sperm test you can do at home!

DisneyDiva87 · 07/10/2013 15:49

Hey guys!

Congrats to all the BFPs! Can't believe there are 8 already, keep it up girls!

I'm not gonna join the bus this month it's upset me just seeing all those bfps (I'm ashamed to be so jealous) but I'll maybe pop in from time to time and if I get my BFP this month I'll definitely be in to tell you.

Hope everyone is keeping well Smile

mama31 · 07/10/2013 15:51

Mrsb reaLly?! A sperm test?!! As intriguing as that would be for all of us ladies....it would prob add even more pressure....however I would love to check hubs sperm out on that as he's never got anyone preggers and I'd like to know its possible!!!! But early days for us too, so I shouldn't jump the gun.....anywho....how much would one of those cost?!?! Lol

mama31 · 07/10/2013 15:52

Hey disney! I hope your doing ok!!! Nice to hear ya!!! :)

onelifeonechance · 07/10/2013 15:53

Hi Disney, great to hear from you and hope you're ok. The BFPs give me hope but I do understand it might be hard seeing them, don't apologise, we've all been there. Take care and best of luck to you, let us know how you get on!

onelifeonechance · 07/10/2013 15:55

Ha! I've seen those kits, think they're about £30ish. Haven't mentioned them to dh yet!

GinandStripes · 07/10/2013 15:59

Hey Disney, totally understandable - hugs and good luck for you x

HisLommel · 07/10/2013 16:04

Got a smiley face on CB digital opk this morning and ICs very strong so I'm now on the 2ww I guess!

allchatnicknamesgone · 07/10/2013 16:17

Yep, although my ovulation happened on the second day of smiley face this month....

I'm 4dpo and already convinced I'm not going to get Bfp this month. It's a killer. I'm temping this month, so can't even forget about it as it my waking thought.

I've read mixed reviews on try it at home sperm tests. Not sure how much they cost privately. Prob like £200!

Marlena- I'm not sure if temps are reliable in early preg. I think in the 2ww high temp can be either pregnancy or on set of AF. I was wondering myself so I did some research.

englishteacher78 · 07/10/2013 16:54

Boobs are a little bigger and still no AF, no spotting, no cramps, nothing.

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 17:47

Hi Ladies,

Sorry to hear that Lucy - FX for you.

I have no idea what's going on, still really hot, had the odd stinging/twingy cramp and added to very tired. Desperate for a nanna nap during the morning afternoon and evening .

Still only 10dpo and only had one 15miu test but stupid me, I tested and got a BFN. AF not due until Friday. Bah. However, I dunno if that's me or wait until the Fat Lady Sings and AF has truly shown up ? Any thoughts ? I am not an expert on HPT's/Sensitivities/How early not to test etc.

Now I am all sad. This is why I generally stick to not testing until I have a missing AF.

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 17:48

Actually, Google says a 15 test will not be sensitive enough to pick up HCG 4 days out, yet the bloody packet says it can be used 4 days before AF arrives. Packet tells lies ?

GinandStripes · 07/10/2013 17:48

english I've got really mild cramps, boobs are a tiny bit sore (nothing compared to usual) no spotting, no AF, I'm also not irritable and I've managed to not eat everything in sight! Trying to not get my hopes up too much.

MarlenaGru · 07/10/2013 17:52

Same here SoMuchFruit!

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 17:58

How many dpo are you Marlena ? I have been absolutely boiling hot for the last 5 days. Haven't got a temperature but am like a radiator!

Oddly for the last few days before AF shows up my TaTa's are not showing signs of PMS. They are usually a very easy guide. Bloating was here but gone again.

God knows what's going on. Am royally pissed off now. Shouldn't have POAS.

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 17:59

Not the last 5 days.. The last FEW days. No idea why it says 5.

crazylady2013 · 07/10/2013 18:02

Hang in there SoMuchFruit. I'm 2 weeks late and still no af or BFP. Been reading about people that don't get positive until 3 months pregnant!!! I wish there was a definative way of knowing when pregnant (blue belly button would be good).

GinandStripes · 07/10/2013 18:05

crazylady I was thinking that today but I didn't think of belly button - that's genius and nicely hidden.

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 18:09

crazylady how are you doing that and being sane! I'd have to have gone to the Dr for a blood HCG by now! A blue belly button would be perfect actually. Or any colour. Anything that was definitive. (But not an all over coating of scales or anything)

I was googling, handy chart says that at 10dpo that HCG levels are only 10-50miu/ml so a 15miu/ml could easily miss that grasping at straws

I think I am even more 'Pah' because Murphy's Law says that because I want to be preggo I won't be.. and another friend announced she was pg on FB this afternoon so the gods who rule my life will no doubt decree that I won't be..

Positive little flower today, I am.

MarlenaGru · 07/10/2013 18:10

I am due to test on Friday too but tested today. Either due AF Thursday or Friday. And I am like a human furnace and have just very nearly deposited my lunch on a train. Only ever done that once before and I was pregnant (but much further)

MarlenaGru · 07/10/2013 18:12

Are we twins SoMuchFruit? A "friend" on my FB announced last Friday when I was almost at impatience bursting point!

crazylady2013 · 07/10/2013 18:15

Trust me I'm not sane anymore. I have an appointment with the GP so will hopefully have an answer either way soon.
Definitely not a belly button with scales but I would takea bit of glitter.
It is awful when others around you are falling pregnant and it seems such an up hill struggle for yourself. Tomorrow will be a better day (or so I keep telling myself).

mama31 · 07/10/2013 18:17

Awh ladies good luck to you all....I dread the 2ww it is truly soul destroying and I'm reading all of these posts knowing full well....even though I said I won't be....that I will be psychoticly symptom spotting and poas obsesively!!!! Even though I'm nowhere near 2ww now....I can feel the build up to it again....eeeeeekkk!!!!! Hope you all get your bfps!!!! :)

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 18:21

That's random! We are clearly on some sort of similar cosmic path or something. So you are 10dpo too ?

It was madness for me to test today but the odd hotness and tiredness were bugging me then when I heard the friend news... There I was 20mins later PIAC, stick at the ready.. [sigh]

SoMuchFruit · 07/10/2013 18:25

crazylady I hope it's just a strange occurrence and your GP hands you an all-singing, all dancing BFP. Glitter.. now there's an idea! I don't suppose it counts if I sprinkle DS's craft glitter on myself, no ?

Mama31 I swore I wasn't doing the 2WW this month.. and here I am, trying to use reverse psychology on fate.. Wine tonight I think or I'll never get over the shame re the indecent haste with which I ripped that HPT test packet open with.. am idiot.
