Manic symptom watching!

[Babymamababy]

Hi all,

This is a place for all manic symptom watchers to share stories and convince themselves they have each other's symptoms! Nothing like a healthy dose of mania to ease the real anxiety and worry ttc can cause!

I myself have just recently started ttc and have seen myself go from a fully rounded adult to a manic symptom checker.
So today's symptom is a pinchy like pain in my left lower abdomen...could be wind...but no...as a manic symptom checker...I'm convincing myself it's a sign of implantation!
I will share a new one everyday. Please add your own...I want to have them too&!

Well I was hoping to stay away from manic symptom watching and take it easy but there's something weird going on!

I took my last cerazette pill on 17/10 (yes, a whole 10 days ago!) and no af yet then yesterday I had a strange achy sensation on my left hand side about where I think my ovary is that lasted about an hour and since then I've been aware of my uterus. No ache or pain, I'm just aware of it.

Is this ovulation? It can't be pregnancy surely as I'd only be a maximum of 4 days! But it's been so long since I last ov'd I cant remember what it feels like!

Hi all, well I've been to the doctors because I've been in agony with my left side of my back, turns out I've got a urine infection. He did a test and it was negative. Told him about my bleed a week last Saturday and said it could have been a very very early misscarraige I feel so crap x

Oh Bustherb that sounds so crap - have a and and be good to yourself. Thinking of you.

Thank you ma. I said I wouldn't get upset if it was negative this month but I could have burst into tears when the doctor said, instead I came home an cried for about 2 hours!!! x

Aww bustherb that sounds awful, I also want to the docs today because I keep getting bad pelvic pain when I go for a run and they got me doing a pg test which was also BFN, not even near AF yet and I felt so low afterwards xxx

It's so frustrating mum. My doctor was adamant that if your pregnant you will be getting a positive 4 days before af on the other hand he then said to come back in 2 weeks if it didn't come!!! He did give me this leaflet which he swears by for conception so will just see. Does anyone else take folic acid?? Xx he recommended me take it but it never crossed my mind to really xx

Apparently everyone TTC should tale folic acid. I take pregnancy vitamins which have it included when I remember

I'm sorry Bust, TTC really is hard. Months of BFNs really do take it out of you. We have been trying for 3yrs.

Had the weird shooting/poker up my vag again last night...anyone else get this?

Sorry to hear that Bustherb, hope you start to feel better soon.

I'm 3 days late which is quite unusual, but I did a test a day before AF was due which was a negative. So I'm not sure what's going on. I'm trying to wait a couple more days before I do another test, but it's quite difficult!

I'm also taking folic acid as well, when I remember

Hi guys. Im 18 days late today making it cycle day 49 "/!!!!!! Just got results back from doctors of my urine sample and it was a BFN!!!! :( going in to get blood tests on friday as the nurse wants to see if anything else is causing my period to be soooooo late "/! Frustrating.

Thanks girls! I have purchased some folic acid today!! Awww Emz, it must be so frustrating for you hopefully the blood test will give you an answer! I've worken up with not only a urine infection but a full on cold and sore throat af still hasn't turned up but I've got lots of CM. Xxx

So, 4 days late. Did a test which came back negative. So now just thinking that AF is late because I'm stressed out! So disappointing.

Hope you get your bfp when you next test Confused I have heard that some people don't see a positive for quite a while.

Oh Emz how frustrating. I had a cycle exactly like that last year.

Bust I have a sore throat too...I've dosed up on vitamin c this morning. You've just reminded me to take my folic acid too

AF arrived last night. Bang on time. I am surprisingly OK about it. Was hoping to fall pregnant this month as it was my first cycle since we got married. Hopefully next month!

Oh Embarrassed. Could you have ov later this cycle?

It's possible, but I wouldn't know as I don't keep track of anything to tell. In a way I want AF to arrive so I can try again!

I've got some news girls!!!! Ive got my positive test and pregnant!! Xxxxxxx

Fantastic Bustherb, congratulations

Plenty of BFPs on this board at the moment. Fingers crossed you send it my way

YAY!!!!!! Congrats Bust that's brilliant news xxxxxx

Thanks both, I can't believe it! Shows doctors don't know what their talking about sometimes! I've got a very clear line too sending lots and lots of baby dust to everyone xxxxx

Oh that's fab Bustherb! Congrats

Omg Congratulations Bust. Happy for you. Now sprinkle that baby dust my way x :) x

Thanks so much to everyone! I'm very scared, excited, nervous! I don't know anything about pregnancy I still don't think it's real, have to keep looking back at a pic of my test that I sent to the hubby. Can anyone recommend any books to buy? Sending lots of baby dust to you Emz. Don't worry I'll be checking in on you girls to see how everyone's getting on xxxx

Hi girls! How's everyone doing?xxx

Ah, I'm out this month as AF has arrived today, a week late for no discernible reason. Now at least I can focus on this next cycle.

I'm a little sad though :-(

Awwww I'm sorry to hear that embarrassed. I'm sure you will catch this month sending lots of luck and hugs xxxxxx

I'm going to join in

Experiencing bouts of mild heartburn (which I never get. Ever. And no changes to diet or exercise), the most horrendous bloating and wind

Been quite thirsty. Also had the TMI alert weirdest stringy, jelly CM - I would have thought it fertile mucus had it not been so close to AF time.

AF is imminent. Guess I wait and test if she doesn't appear .

Hope all is well with everyone else on the thread
