Probably, my cycles are so long I always skip a month ahead!

victoria401 · 19/04/2014 22:29

DrewsWife · 20/04/2014 05:30

I.

I'm waiting drew I really don't want to see a bfn. Flushed today's fmu. Discussed with DH this morning and he doesn't think we should use it. Wait another few days as in theory the spotting I always get pre-af should start soon. On crotch watch already! DH thinks I've looked into symptoms too much now and I'm like a crazy person! Need to take a chill pill!

Dreamt I got a bfp with my stick last night. For some reason I woke up thinking I should definitely not poas today! Can't bear the dream not coming true!

RPopz · 20/04/2014 10:15

Early testing is more stressful than its worth. Even if its neg you'll convince yourself it could still be pos later.... just prolongs the agony! I've given it up. x

toothachereturns · 20/04/2014 10:45

PMSL at crotch watch!!!!!Grin

Rpopz, totally agree. This month I'm not testing until af due. Stressful and expensive. Sad

victoria401 · 20/04/2014 10:51

Well my test doesn't have a use by until the middle of next year. I hope I get to use it way before then tho!

victoria401 · 21/04/2014 13:01

Wednesday can't come soon enough!

toothachereturns · 21/04/2014 14:13

How are you feeling Victoria?

RPopz · 21/04/2014 14:23

Any sign of anything either way?? Grin

I've got another 12+ days to wait!!! Sad

victoria401 · 21/04/2014 15:25

I feel ok. Thought I felt nauseous in Tesco earlier but that might have been the 2 glasses of wine last night couldn't resist. Just done some gardening and got a bit dizzy, but not used to the hard work! I've usually got more pre af symptoms by now. No spotting, no cramps. I'm very ratty with DH today but he is being a pain! I've no idea what to expect....

DrewsWife · 21/04/2014 20:56

Victoria. When do you test??

We are booking midwife tomorrow. DH has already picked a pram. He is beyond excited. I just want to be able to eat. Grin Priorities eh?!!

victoria401 · 21/04/2014 22:04

12dpo today. Due af Wednesday. If nothing Wednesday then as long into the future as possible. I'm not hopeful though. You kind of lose hope after so long. I don't think this must be my month, I say I assume this month will be the same as every other :-( god how depressed am I today?

How are you feeling drew? Very sick I gather? X

toothachereturns · 21/04/2014 22:41

Lol Drewswife! So funny. Grin

Aw Victoria.... I really hope this is your month too. x

I'm back at work tomorrow after 11 days off. I'm having wine to cope. Might regret this in the morningWink

cd5... .. alcohol free from tomorrow on!

DrewsWife · 21/04/2014 22:54

Don't lose hope. We only managed to dtd 2x. DH was really unwell.

I felt sooooo down about it. I actually think I felt mad at one point. My first test was bfn and I felt so negative about it that I wouldn't test until tooth nearly lost her marbles. Wink

Now I'm fat and homicidal with a DH who has decided to go pay deposit on pram before I've booked the effing midwife. I'm crotch spotting as I'm convinced it's all a dream.

I can't eat yoghurt Angry. I want yoghurt. My boobs are like bricks. And I'm exhausted.

Please don't lose hope.

We have been trying and this was cycle 5 for us. The one cycle was dtd 2x. We used some ph balancing gel for my who ha... And tomorrow in not allowed a lie in as we HAVE to get to docs as matter of urgency. I'm probably going to lynch him Wink.

So today I have cramps but no spotting (have creamy cm instead!), feels like food is getting stuck at the top of my throat and boobs are tingly but look normal. The wait is nearly over...

DrewsWife · 22/04/2014 10:55

Sounds great!

OP posts:
victoria401 · 22/04/2014 12:30

But I can't get my hopes up. Keep feeling like maybe I got ov wrong and I'm not due for another week or something!

wiltingfast · 22/04/2014 12:33

Fingers crossed for you Victoria401, tingly boobs MUST be a good sign Grin

Am 10 dpo here but feeling totally symptomless :(

My only thin hope is I don't feel the af coming either and I usually do have cramping.

Plus I'm not spotty not grasping at straws at all

af due 27 April, aaargh!

RPopz · 22/04/2014 15:46

Kinda sounds promising Vic!! Can understand not wanting to get your hopes up though. Really hope this is your month Grin

Drew why can't you have yoghurt??? Hmm Sorry you're feeling sick. I think the fact you only dtd twice this month makes me feel worse - all the shagging we've been doing! Envy

Is everyone back at work today? How depressing is it after a long weekend!

victoria401 · 22/04/2014 17:23

Someone I know has got a clearblue digi that expires next month. I'm picking it up in a bit. Fx I can use it! I've actually started imagining and kind of pretending I'm preg. Its not going to be good for my mental wellbeing if I'm not! DH is deffo hoping I am so he doesn't have to do his SA next week!

RPopz · 22/04/2014 17:26

That's a random thing to have hanging around haha! I've got everything crossed for you Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks

Mikeysmum2906 · 22/04/2014 20:31

victoria401 · 22/04/2014 21:48
