New thread...

[Nordicmom]

Stepaway, I'm only on day 8dpo so the cb isn't meant to work yet but the frer could so waiting for DH to bring some . I have to say that an earlier cb had an ultra faint plus on it but u could hardly see it ( dh will tell me I'm imagining it )and I noticed it later on not right after .
Feel so bloated now like I'm 5 m preg . Horribly nauseous earlier and in constant pain pretty much so didn't make it to my DS cricket when my taxi got lost . Luckily his team won and he wasn't upset . Will catch up later ...

[Stepawayfromthezebras]

Oh you poor thing Nordic, I hope you get more comfortable soon! Same link shows 33% of upduffed peeps getting a BFP on 8 dpo so don't get down in the dumps if it's a bfn

[KittyVonCatsington]

Hibou - hearing about others is the worst as it just reminds you in the most brutal way, what you don't have (at least that is how it makes me feel) and for that reason, haven't been on FB for 7 weeks now and keeping recently upduffed friends at arms length. It's just too painful otherwise isn't it? Sorry you have having a low day.

Eager - I hear you on the long cycles, no peaks/positives and expensive ClearBlue crap (they are not my fav, Grrr) I have spent best part of 300 pounds since Jan on CB stuff. This cycle I spent 5 pounds on 50 cheapies. They worked To be fair to CB, I wasn't ovulating in March and April but it's an expensive product. I hope you cycle sorts itself out soon

Nordic. - that faint line on your CB does sound positive-not heard of evaps on them. Hope your DH comes back with some FRERs soon.

[Hibou7688]

Thanks stepaway seems like we're in exactly the same boat with dps!!

[notoasthere]

Can I join? Txt #2, at imminent so will be on to a new cycle soon

[Wineandchoccy]

Evening Ladies, well since AF arrived this morning I have stuffed my face with junk, my bikini is not going to fit next week

Welcome to all the new passengers, good luck

[Serenitysutton]

Hello all congratulations to the bfp'ers!

I don't think anyone answered te poster on pg1- sorry I can't scroll back but you need a special bbt thermometer to measure to chart. Amazon sell them, about £3.
So here I am- 12dpo. I was convinced no baby this month as I didn't get a positive opk, but I am of course symptom spotting- only symptoms so far are lots of creamy white CM and TMI constipation. I haven't had my breast pain the way I usually do leading up to AF but have had my
pMt!
Although my acupuncture lady said it can't be PMT as occurs on day 18/19???

Anyhow, I am having a beer. Why not

[Nordicmom]

Blaaaah bfn on frer but it's About 5-6 d early for me now and wasn't fmu.

[Spotti]

Anyone remember me saying how I was huuuungrrryyyyy the other day (yesterday?), well that's still happening. I've lost track of how much food I've eaten today! And I don't know if it's worth shouting SYMPTOM or not, but my god am I tired!!! Yet at the same time suffering with insomnia... :-/

The past week or so I've been randomly waking up at 3.30am, on the dot, for no flipping reason, and then for the past few days I've been tossing and turning unto 11.30ish (I'm an early bird, up at 5ish every day, so 11.30 is LATE in my house) and then zonking out until morning. Last night I decided to fight the insomnia and stayed up until 11ish and surprisingly managed to sleep all the way through to my alarm this morning. Not even had a nap today or anything! (I've been needing 2-3 hours extra sleep each day for the last week...2-3 hours nap - that's quite a long nap! I'm normally a 45 minute kinda gal).

Might have just answered my own question there as it might just be the f*cked up sleep pattern that's making me tired, but there's something unusual going on here 'cos I'm tucked up in bed at the mo and have been since 7.30.

7.30 - the sun is still out and my dog thinks I'm nuts for telling him it's bed time when it's still day light outside.

I'm thinking I might need my iron levels checking out if this continues...

(Sorry for the ramble. I'm tired and I'm afraid that when I'm tired I make no sense.

Fx for kitty's upduffed rash that's such a normal thing to say! )

Evening ladies

Welcome to the newbies

Sorry bout bfn nordic but hopefully it is to early.

Mega stomach cramps this afternoon same as day my af is due hope to god its not turning up 2 weeks early.

Sorry haven't read bk am on mobile.

[Treaclepie19]

Marking my place.
Sorry i haven't read back. I thought I'd lost you all!
Hope all are ok x

[Treaclepie19]

Spotti, you are so preggers :p
My first sign was napping daily. DH was shocked as I normally won't give in to a nap! And horrific bloating (which hasn't gone away...).

[sparkle17]

Congrats to the BFP's. Fx for good news for the rest of the month. I am just back from honeymoon today, totally jet lagged. On cd12, this is my first cycle TTC so just being very relaxed at the moment. Will hopefully DTD a couple of times over the weekend as this might be when i Ov. Loving this thread ladies.
Just for the stats my BFP will be due 23rd June. I think I had missed that out last time.

[freneticfox]

Now my DH has seen the test in person, he can see a faint second line, roll on tomorrow for FMU test!

[TheGrandHighWitch]

Agree Spotti that massive tiredness is definitely a sign. Had it with my eldest and either had to go to bed earlier at night or have a 2 hour nap in the afternoons. I've been feeling tired during the tww too (currently 9dpo) but I have also had a lot of restless sleep and multiple night wakings.

Getting tired of waiting now too. Did an IC test with fmu but got my first ever evap line. Feels like my boobs are slightly less sore today though and am very irritable which is usually a sign of impending af so I don't know what to think atm. I've been trying to work out what my hcg levels should be by now to work out when I would be most likely to get a positive. Assuming I had actually conceived that is.

Massive congrats to our newest BFP bus/plane passengers though.

[KittyVonCatsington]

Blueberry - mega stomach cramps 14 days before AF due...has this happened before? Sounds like ovulation to me. Could this be your little miracle?!

Where are you in your cycle Spotti ?! Sounds like your body is working overtime for something...

How was school Treacle? At least it's Friday tomorrow (((hugs)))

[Viperama]

Hi ladies, okay it's stats time...

DTD cd8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15. Got high on cbopk from cd8 daily until a peak on cd14, hence the shagathon.
We used softcups for the first 2 or 3 days, then I totally hurt my neck somehow and the osteopath asked how things were down there as the area of my neck that hurt is connected to the uterus, told her about softcups, she said stop and find dome work to help my neck and baby area over two sessions. We used preseed throughout.

Oh and my cousin who does accupuncture gave me a session at the end of my last cycle, and gave me some things called mica sticks that are shaped and burn like cigars and smell like pot, to hold lit over my stomach moving in circles to warm it, I find this once around ov day as it stank. I also went to a meditation session a few times and have been on holiday at home, then came back and have had family staying the entire time so I think my head space has been awesome.

My temp dipped slightly at cd14 then steadily climbed until it dipped a but at cd20 then climbed to its highest ever at cd25 where it has remained at 38.6.
I was super creamy from cd25, and had mild nausea prob from cd27. Could have had nausea earlier than that but I have ibs and mild nausea is an old friend of mine.

Hope this helps, if not sorry for the novella

Frenetic fingers crossed for the morning, don't keep us waiting to long. Any other partay girls joining her?

[Viperama]

Moxa sticks not mica!

[Aprilray]

Wow, it is hard to keep up, I wonder how many threads we'll have got through by the end of June.
Hello to the new ladies who have hopped on today!

Viperama thanks for the stats - DH and I talked about me having acupuncture if we are still ttc next month so good to hear it may have helped you get your BFP. The moxa sticks sound interesting too.
I was planning to join the Friday POAS party but am having cold feet - will be 10DPO...

[Treaclepie19]

Thanks kitty, i need those hugs :(
School was horrible :( I have such a lot to catch up on and people keep piling more on. I'm being observed on the 16th :/ Sorry to keep moaning, i just don't know what to do.

[xBlueberry88x]

kitty I had some last month (not a month I gad blood test) ive only been getting symptoms like this a couple of months

This is first time ive noticed ewcm, migraines, cramps and pokey pain at same time.

I dont want to get my hopes up though, if it is ovulation which is more likely to be the day I ovulated?

1st day migraine and a small glob of ewcm
2nd day massive amount of ewcm and migraine continued.
3rd day cramps, pokey pain, head still weird and cm.

spotti sounds promising

sparkle hope you had a good honeymoon. Your bfp is due on my birthday good luck

viperama thats a lot of dtd lol...acupuncture creeps me out but I may have to try it.

[sammyj85]

kitty you've got me alk excited about rashes, I had this last week around ovulation.

[KittyVonCatsington]

Treacle
Do you have any control over the observation date and is the person doing it, reasonable? If you can't change the date, then just remember, they can't put you on capability on one observation. Don't plan anything flashy, dowhat you would normally do, with a few ofsted boxes ticked, will be enough to get you through that hour.

With the requests from other members of staff, write down what days/times they need doing by, do the bare minimum of each task (e.g. Copy and paste something if it can be) rather than you normal high standard.

Don't get involved in staff room politics for a while-stay in your classroom for example. Reduce the amount of contact you have with them. The numb feeling you might be experiencing, will slowly go away the less staff based stress you face.

Your visits can't be cancelled, but also remember, no one can give you more tasks during them either

If there is anything else specifically that you are dreading, lots of us teachers might be able to help too. Our jobs make the loss harder to cope with, looking after other's children - a constant reminder...

I know this is all easier said than done, but you are strong enough to get to the other side of this hell. you are

[KittyVonCatsington]

Blueberry - I'm no expert, but I would guess the third day, with the pains. The EWCM etc. being the bit to get you DTD so spermies ready and waiting. I sooooo hope this your miracle

sparkle. - I've done lots of reading tonight and rashes on hand have been reported by others. Not sure quite as early as us, but one poster on baby-center said her rash started before BFP... My guess is it is us reacting to hormones...

[Treaclepie19]

Thank you kitty, i don't know what I'd do without you at the moment. I used your post-it idea today.
I have no control over the observation and I'm being observed by the head, deputy and an advisor. Everyone else has already been observed and it hasn't gone well. Just feel like they are looking to grade us badly.

You're right with the visits, at least if im busy then that is all I can do!


I will try and stay in my room as much as possible, problem is lunch time I get bogged down as well because I'm in nursery and we have lunch time care in my room. I need to make sure I get out for a little while because I end up working through lunch. I never manage to get out though.

By the time I get home I'm emotionally drained so working after school right now is not happening.

Anyway, deep breaths and I will make a list with Planeed work times and planned rest times.
