Boosk, stuffy nose is so a symptom! As is a bloody nose. I had a stuffy nose 12-16dpo ;) had major blockage for 2 of the other 7 too, I was even sleeping upright so I could breathe!
I need to get off here, such a bad influence!!! :o

broodylicious · 20/10/2014 18:48

Spotti · 20/10/2014 18:54

I'm really quite behind with everyone's news but just HAD to say squeeeeee for choccy Grin. Will be keeping my fingers very tightly crossed for a super sticky bean for you xxxxxx

Choccywoccydodah · 20/10/2014 19:22

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 19:26

Haha spinning I'm the same!!!

Boosk I will try and be good :p

Broody aww that's such a lovely thing to say, thank you! I'd still be on here anyway :)

furtivefeline · 20/10/2014 19:32

Boosk yep had blocked nose early on when pg with DD, and also blood when noseblowing. Good luck!

gennibugs · 20/10/2014 19:36

Omg! I have had a stuffy nose for a few days now and blood when I blew my nose! Symptom then! Woo hoo! Mind you on the other hand I've got bad tummy cramps so not holding out much hope. I was going to poas this Wednesday but not sure I will now.

Funny though, today in my new role they told me that the past 4 ladies that have done my role have fallen pg almost immediately on starting, (I've been brought in to cover a mat leave for a year) and they were all joking around warning me not to sit on 'the chair'. I was smiling outwardly whilst thinking "FGS let this be a lucky omen....please please please!" Grin

Frolicacid · 20/10/2014 19:38

Thank you everyone! I'm off now to jump on the Novemver bus. Please don't any of you follow me there! I'm clutching my soy whotsits, my crack epo and feeling positive.
Take care lovely pregoween ladies and thanks for all your support Thanks

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 19:43

I have a stuffy nose!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha genni, sit on the chair! :p

Frolic sorry to see you go, good luck next cycle.

gennibugs · 20/10/2014 19:48

Good luck frolic Thanks

treacle trust me, my bottom couldn't find that chair fast enough! Grin

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:09

Hi everyone thanks a lot for the positive vibes xxx

I'm pretty new to this... What does POAS and BFN mean?! I'm guessing BFN means neg preg test?

I'm going to hold off for as long as can. So excited though. Been trying for number 1 for about 3 months xxx

spinningirl10 · 20/10/2014 20:11

Ahh Frolic, come back and visit, hope the nov bus is lucky for youWine

Genni, ooh i really hope it's a lucky chair for you and that the stuffy nose is a symptomGrin how was your first day, hope you enjoyed it?

Pleased it's not just me going loopy with this wait! Smile

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 20:12

Poas = pee on a stick (test)
Bfn = big fat negative
:)

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 20:12

Oh and Spinning ill be shocked if you're not pregnant!
I don't think I am now though :/ don't really have symptoms to be honest.

Boosk · 20/10/2014 20:13

Ooh choccy and furtive thank you! I do hope it's a good sign. Smile

Eeee treacle and Genni stuffy noses all round. And Genni have a sit for all of us tomorrow won't you. Smile

spinningirl10 · 20/10/2014 20:14

Hi Gem,

Bfn= big fat negative
Bfp= big fat positve (a positive result on a pregnancy test)
Poas=pee on a stick! ( either an hpt, home pregnancy test or an opk, ovulation predictor kit)

You'll soon get the hang of itGrin

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:17

Thank you treacle! Spinning you're definately not on your own with the wait xx

Katybear123 · 20/10/2014 20:17

Hi all, cd24 here 7dpo. No idea if should expect bfp or not so trying to ignore the idea.
Chandlers interesting re not jumping about to much when implantation is due. I'm a netball player which requires lots of jumping about, I have training tomoz at 8 dpo which will defo require jumping. What do I do? I have always played and train lots so body v used to this, but I've never tried to get preg before :-)

Choc hugs congrats

spinningirl10 · 20/10/2014 20:17

Ah xposts with a treacle there!

Treacle, I really don't know, I so wish was there was an easier way to know for sure without this waiting and symptom spotting! I've got everything crossed for you, your charts looking good isn't it?

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:17

Thank you spinningirl xx

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:20

Oooh I'm not sure Katybear would it be easy to miss? I'm sure it's fine but I would be thinking same!

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:22

By the way... I've always kind of thought of implantation bleeding as a myth??? Does it actually happen?!!

Treaclepie19 · 20/10/2014 20:27

It definitely does gem, not to everyone. I never had it when I got pregnant.

I dunno Spinning :( temp went way back down today. Could be that I'm 8dpo and it's implantation, could be that I'm 10dpo and it's preparing for af. Who knows :/

Choccywoccydodah · 20/10/2014 20:29

Implantation doesn't happen to everyone but def not a myth. I had pink with my ds 4 days before I got a bfp, and I had it this time 5-8dpo on and off pink and brown spotting, bfp 10dpo :)
It takes a few days for your hcg to build up, so I'd try a test in 3-4 days

gemsparkle84 · 20/10/2014 20:33

Crazy times!!! Thank you!
