Last month I drove myself nuts with symptom spotting and early poas. I had every sign and symptom going and was convinced I was pregnant. Luckily I kept a list of all my many symptoms on a calendar so this time if necessary I can remind myself that pms has all the same same features as early pregnancy.
I'm determined not to test until 23rd, as I think I should come on then if I'm going to, must stay strong!! Anyone want company in ignoring the whole thing?!

YAY fatty. I'd trust the other tests more tbh, ive heard loads of people say the cheapies didn't pick it up as soon despite being more sensitive (alledgedly!)

doomkittycleo · 27/03/2015 13:22

Not af signs, but twinges like af. Only been off the pill since January so still figuring out what's normal for me.

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 13:27

When I am being sensible I think that we wouldn't get any symptoms before HCG is strong enough to show on a test - so probably after AF is missed anyway.

But that doesn't stop me!

Woo congratulations! Flowers.

epskie · 27/03/2015 13:47

Hey Forty welcome :-) are you a fellow serial poas-er? Hope this month is your month too Grin

See, now I'm viciously jiggling my boobs up and down - not a dickie bird of a hint of pain Sad

FortySixandTwo · 27/03/2015 14:09

Hi Epskie to my shame yes its become a sort of compulsion. Hmm
Thanks for the welcome and massive congrats to those with their BFPs !

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 14:20

Also confessing to being obsessed with boobs.

I think I did about 6 Internet cheapies in one day last month, I don't know how I am going to keep away!

Springflower3 · 27/03/2015 15:11

Ha ha imagine of us all standing jiggling our boobs!!! I'm soooo tempted to test!!! Where is my restraint!!

Terry I think logical thinking goes out the window! Then your fanatically googling to see who else had early syndrome and if they had it then you must too!!! But surely it all can't be in our heads!!!!

I'm doing the conceive trial at queen charlotte & Chelsea hospital. Had to give blood & wee & do one tests, they're looking for more volunteers (if anyone's in London & interested).

Got a clearblue fertility monitor & a shed load of OPK's & pregnancy test sticks to go with the monitor.

The trial last for twelve cycles or till your pregnant then they carry out extra scans.

As I'm obssessed with testing anyway I was happy to volunteer. And I now have a lovely little monitor (have to give it back once we get pregnant), and I can test every day from end of AF and then they want me to do pregnancy tests!

fuzzywuzzy · 27/03/2015 15:40

Congrats fatty, love the bfps.

epskie · 27/03/2015 16:15

fuzzy that sounds like poas heaven!! Grin

Forty you're in good company here, we are all the same Wink

I've just been to the docs about my infected throat (got anti biotics) and accidentally fell into superdrug on my way back, then fell back into the car clutching a frer Blush so much for Easter Sunday! If af is due Monday, when can I use a frer?

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 17:12

This Monday?

epskie · 27/03/2015 17:24

Monday coming.

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 17:31

There is a leaflet inside telling you the accuracy i think, your supposed to be able to use them 6 days early but the longer you wait the more accurate they are.

epskie · 27/03/2015 17:36

I'm going to wait Grin

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 17:44

I would, and those tests aren't cheap either Grin

Only a few days now, how are you feeling?

epskie · 27/03/2015 17:49

I know! I've bought them now though, perhaps I should use just one? Just kidding.

I've got a dreadful throat infection, just been given anti biotics so not great really. What about you?

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 17:50

I'm alright, I've got aaaaaages to go only 2DPO.

epskie · 27/03/2015 17:56

Aaahhh! Did you dtd plenty?

TerryTheGreenHorse · 27/03/2015 18:05

Didn't manage a great deal but it was well timed - I think! Grin

epskie · 27/03/2015 18:16

Same as us, only twice but hopefully in the right place! Fingers crossed for all of us! Wink

wineandpopcorn · 27/03/2015 18:20

I got another bfn today! Still 4 days till AF is due, but I think I am out as I have my usual pmt symptoms!

Springflower3 · 27/03/2015 18:46

Pmsl laughing I got home and took a test! Bfn but I've 7 days to AF and I've drunk 2 litres of water in the past 3 hours!!!

Is it possible to get a no one day and a yes another???

fuzzywuzzy · 27/03/2015 21:10

Spring it is, depends on pregnancy hormone levels in your urine, FMU would definitely be better to test with. Give it a couple more days?

Springflower3 · 27/03/2015 21:31

Thanks fuzzy, thought i was out already!! What is FMU??
