POAnything? Symptom Spotting?

[LastOneDancing]

Welcome to the thread for TTCers who track too much, spot to much and use most of our expendable income in Internet Cheapies.

Cycle 5 or 55 we don't care this is a place for your hopeful twaddle and necessary pre-conception ranting.

Whoop! Got up this morning, didn't do a test but think I am pregnant. AF is 2 days late. Going away for 2 and half weeks and not taken any tests with me! Will be strange going that long without pissing on anything!

Lizzy a pregnancy test would not show a miscarriage as it can take a while to get the HCG out of your system. It is there and it is staying, think positive thoughts.

Chelle, my mum will either be like yours or very reserved. It's going to be one of those two extremes I'm guessing. MIL will just be ridiculously excited.

Buy the stuff. I went to just 'have a look at mat wear' ended up seeing a gorgeous dress half price, tried it on and bought it! But it's ok, it's going to be my 'bump photos' dress. I am loving the fact mat dresses are all empire line as I have no waist so this the best cut for me.

Damn you LOD with your lack of symptoms!

Oh also was just a bit queasy, but that passed without vomming! Yay!

We caved and POAS yesterday at 10DPO. BFN.

Then yesterday afternoon I had some very light pink discharge in my underwear and when I wiped. This morning it's the same but slightly brown too - definitely not red. And barley any. After a few wipes it had gone.

No cramps but I did have cramp the first 6DPO which was unusual for me. The spotting is also something I've never had.

AF due in three days on Tuesday 21st. No other symptoms so we're still keeping fingers and toes crossed.

Sunshine 10dpo is early, I only got my very faint BFP at 11dpo on a FRER.

Didn't sleep well last night, my DP went out and got drunk and snored each time he lay on his back..... I had great pleasure in holding his nose each time he was too loud!

Have felt more nausea today, which was worse after body pump this morning. Eating seems to help..... I can see myself 'eating for two' much earlier than you are supposed to!

When are we supposed to actually be getting sickness? I was horrifically sick this morning and the only reason I have spewed up my lunch is because it was a public toilet and i really couldn't bring myself to do it. Is 4+5 too early for this?!?!

Everyone is different Chelle, don't think there is a set rule for any of this!

Yy chelle, some people get sick from the week they conceive, others never do. It just depends on your make up and how your body copes with hormones.

Rick I ate through the nausea in my first trimester last time - nothing wrong with it, just please learn from my mistake and take healthy snacks with you not chocolate hobnobs I was FAT.

everyone OK? x

Is anyone POAS this week?

Hello all! I'm 26, have a beautiful 2 yr old girl, been ttc for 5 months. Just got my period today so feeling a little down :(

Welcome dayc. Sorry to hear af has arrived.

lod I think we hve another couple of weeks before anyone is due testing?

I'm good apart from the last two days puking up both my breakfast and lunch!

mrspcr take a pic of your new dress? X

I am away now but will upload dress pic once we have done a shot tonight or tomorrow.

Chelle I had a little puke 4+2 if that makes you feel better but so far it's been a one off.....for now. I know iron supplements can make you vomit.

I'm not POAS til I'm home in just over 2 weeks time. Hehe!

I'm off my food, normally quite an eater but not been hungry and felt queasy so no eaten anywhere near as much as I would normally.

Has the tiniest bit of brownish discharge in my knickers last night I think this is fine. It really was nothing but still makes you worry.

It's going to be a long 8 weeks to 12 weeks!

Hope you're all doing ok.

Here's the dress. Looking forward to getting boobs!

I love it
Mum is still asking me when I'll be safe etc and hoping things go smoothly. I just want to tell her to simmer down!

Well AF has finished on cycle day 7 today so getting ready to go for it this month.

Fingers crossed Ace, whats the plan of action?

Well DP told more people than I thought he would as he had his local stag and after a few drinks managed to slip it into a few conversations. He's excited bless him. All the parents and brothers and sisters have been told and everyone is very happy for us.

Still not very symptomy but do feel hungry all the time.... think I will enjoy it before they all kick in!

ace I hope this month you get your bfp! Fingers crossed for you!

rik it's early days for you too, right? I'm excited about telling people but wondering whether it's worth holding off a little? I really don't want to but my mum is haunting me! I just want to tell everyone!!!

Yeah, i'm 6 weeks today going by LMP.... but I know I ovulate 4/5 days later than the norm and may have even ovulated even later this cycle so probably not even 5 weeks in reality.

I was planning to only tell best friends and immediate family but I will just see how I feel, i'm not going to go out of my way to tell people but if they directly ask I probably won't lie, i'll just emphasise that it's very early days and that i'd appreciate them to keep it to themselves as it's our news to tell.

My mom is the opposite to yours, she has every confidence that it will all be fine and is dying to tell everyone! I'm worried but I guess it isn't good to think like that, I am just going to enjoy it..... even the nauseous feeling I'm having now feels good in a weird way as its a sign something is going on as it should be.

Fingers crossed Ace. We did it CD 6, then CD 8-15 with ov on CD 14. There was one evening when DH got in from work 15 mins before a friend was due to arrive for the night..... She left and then DH left 30 mins later for a stag do. It was one hell of a romantic conception hehe!

Rik we're probably the same. I'm 5 weeks on Thursday. (You're the same too aren't you Chelle? DH is v worried about losing it but I'm just trying to stay positive. I'd be so gutted if we lost it but can't think like that.

Also I've got major baby bloat and holding my tummy in just makes cramps worse. I look ridiculous today!!!

We will tell immediate family when home and best friend as I would find it strange if they didn't know if something happened.

I've lost my appetite and my sweet tooth :-(. Which makes me even more annoyed at the baby bloat. But omg am I drinking! I'm so thirsty in the morning I drink the whole of the 750ml bottle of water at breakfast plus a cup of tea!

I feel like I want to get to 7 weeks, as you hear quite a few who lose around 5. Then I might be more relaxed.

MrsPCR, I'll be 5 weeks on Thursday as well. I'm still waiting for real morning sickness to start - main symptoms are just tiredness, bit of backache, feeling dizzy if I don't eat regularly and being hungry all the time!

We told my parents and sister. My mom is definitely taking the 'fingers crossed, hope it all goes well' approach too. I was hoping she'd be more excited but I guess she wants to wait until the first trimester is safely done.

I'm 5+1

It's very quiet when there is no POAS!

How is everyone feeling today? I break up from work today for my wedding and honeymoon, no work for 3.5 weeks, soooo happy!!!!

Enjoy your wedding, Rik! Where are you going for your honeymoon?

We're going to Vegas and California, very excited!

My mom made me double check pregnancy would be covered by my insurance, it is. I have a docs app in the morning so I'll talk through my honeymoon plans with him to make sure it's ok but I'm sure it will be.

I'm from California, small world! Where are you guys going in California?
