Hi (big wave)
So you clicked on here cos you were looking for me (I'm flattered!) or the title seemed interesting!
I'm aware it doesn't really explain but we are bunch of lovely ladies all TTC and going ever so slightly crazy with it! For more info see our original thread here - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2412386-TTC-anxious-over-early-pregnancy-possible-symptoms?msgid=56357000#56357000

We are symptoms spotters extrodinaire - you name it we've had it, real and/or imagined Confused
We are here to help, we are all supportive, we laugh, rant, cry, joke, rage, smile, and comfort together. Be you a lurker or poster (established or new) then you are very welcome here. We only have a few rules:

  1. No judgement - we all lead different lives and have different standards and that is fine. You wanna get wasted everyday of TWW, that's fine. You wanna abstain completely, that's fine. We need support, not judgement.
  2. No feeling stupid - we've all had those months where we definitely think we are pg 110% convinced and then AF turns up, don't feel bad about it, it happens. Also we all have different levels of knowledge so no question is stupid apart from the one you don't ask.
  3. On this thread there is no such thing as TMI - we are all adults and we all know how miraculous and amazing... and downright disgusting our bodies can be, it's fine. Share what you want, we will not be fazed.

So that's it, jump in and FX'd for all my lovelies xx

Ella my cycles are still crazy irregular! Last cycle 39, one before that 28, before that 24, this one 34. So who the hell knows when I'll next get a visit lol!

(FX not for at least 9 months Grin)

PrtyPsn · 16/09/2015 19:59

Bah who knows?! ella I'm a 32ish day cycle so I'd be very surprised if it was ovulation... DTD last night, perhaps too vigorously but didn't seem like it... it's a mystery!
tay excuse me and my language but that it just fucking awful! Why would she say that?! Sorry to hear about your dad too, these things take time and you take as much as you need, my lovely xx

OMG Tay my mouth literally fell open when I read that Shock. I can't believe anyone would say something so venomous.

Sorry to hear about everyone's crazy foofs/AF arrivals. We need a BFP soon ladies!!

CD7 here and I think AF has buggered off. Ovulated on CD28/29 last cycle so another 3 bloody weeks to wait! On the up side it means we can DTD for fun for a while not sure I remember how to DTD for fun anymore...

themoo · 16/09/2015 20:54

Oh... Just...

hugs each and every one of you

tay13 · 16/09/2015 20:59

Thanks Shary, Prty and MrsKitten I never messaged my sister so she's just facebooking me abuse for no reason. My Mom thinks my sis has a warped view that she would be happy if she were the only one to produce kids. I'm only after the one so keeping optimistic despite meds... DId message my sis back tonight telling her her downbeat attitude to disabilities is both wrong and discriminating.. Think she forgets how easily people can gain the disabled title... After 10 years of rheumatoid I've developed a fairly thick skin.. wrong to expect siblings to speak with respect My mom always said to be grateful of what you do have, I'm always grateful of my DH, he's awesome about TTC and is just as broody as me.

Eagerly awaiting a BFP on here Smile xxx

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 07:30

Right, this is fully cray cray now - sore boobs!! I've never had sore boobs, not before I was TTC or during. They are really tender to touch as well, weirdly it's mainly where they join to my chest, like the deep tissue, not the fullness or around my nipples :/

OP posts:
MummyBex1985 · 17/09/2015 07:44

Prty that's really odd isn't it! Too early for it to be OV?

MummyBex1985 · 17/09/2015 07:44

(starts gang of crazy boobs to join the crazy foofs)

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 07:53

Oh Prty, I'm joining you on the bonkers boobies band wagon. They are horrendous right now. They feel like a blackhead that needs to be squeezed and popped!! Although we are at opposite ends of our cycles, and mine started off a bit tender after my OPK. Do you think you may be Ov'ing early??

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 08:04

bex & aindy I'd be very surprised if it was ov'ing... my shittest cycle has been 27 days, only CD 10 today. I don't normally have ov symptoms, just CM (which I have none of currently) my face has also exploded into spot city and my friend told me I looked really tired last night - like to the extent that she was concerned I hadn't been sleeping! It's more like I'm due AF rather than just kicked her out!!

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 08:05

Ha iPhone is cray cray now (or I swear too much!) should say shortest - not shittest!!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 08:09

Hahaha shittiest seemed fitting! (My phone wanted to correct that to snottiest)

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 08:14

Hahaha many a true word spoken in jest, eh aindy?! Might do an OPK later just to check...

Pirsy1 · 17/09/2015 08:17

Aindy I had the same experience as you last night - DH couldn't finish. This has never happened before and I'm worried that the pressure of TTC is getting too much. It's not the end of the world because we DTD on Tuesday, I just wanted to get another one in last night because think I might be ovulating soon. Honestly just don't know how to keep it fun - it's like a chore, even DH said last night 'Pirsy I can't do this everyday'. We both have busy jobs - my husband especially and before TTC we used to DTD weekend mornings, so trying to do it weekdays before bed does feel a bit forced. We went round to see our friends gorgeous 3 week old baby last night too and you just start thinking it's never going to happen. I feel like giving up today, but at the same time I know I can't.

SunnyScot89 · 17/09/2015 10:35

Don't give up Pirsy, we are the same. OH and I took a week off work last week to DTD but I don't think I even ovulated. :-( Everyone around is pregnant, and my best friend is due to become a daddy next week. I'm so excited for him, yet incredibly jealous.

Can I join the Bonkers boobie band waggon? Mine are randomly sore on the side, like under my arm Hmm

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 12:12

Bonkers Booby Band Wagon!! Hop on board!
Think I'm starting with a cold but that wouldn't make my boobs hurt!!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 12:39

Prty that is so strange! Have you consulted Dr Google yet? Sounds crazy but sore boobs, spots, a cold, tired - I know it couldn't be on CD 10 but sounds so much like Pg! Hmm

Sunny, Pirsy, I'm sorry to hear that. It's reassuring to know that we're not alone. Maybe try every other day?? Gives the chance for a good 'stock' to build up w/o it being too old. Saying that, OH and I would even struggle with that rate! Lol!

So I have no clue what's going on with me. I've had two days of excessive CM. It's like lotion! (But also a tad watery). Kinda feels like I've wet myself or AF has arrived, and I've had to run to the loo!! Lol! Grin Does anyone else get this during the 2WW??

I am not symptom spotting. I am not symptom spotting. I am not symptom spotting

neetie1 · 17/09/2015 12:50

Also getting feeling that have fluid/discharge coming out but all clear very odd. Now down to one pair of trousers that I can wear ...

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 13:14

Neetie I've reverted to wearing big pants and a pad!!!

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 13:17

*resulted

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 13:19

aindy yup - Dr Google says sore boobs generally are hormonal so linked to either AF or pregnancy, other causes could be hitting the gym to hard (exercise isn't something I ever do I'm a fan of!) or too much caffeine if you're sensitive to it - cut out caffeine a month or so ago and drink a ton of coffee before that and never had an issue! Dr Google also tells me it's possible to have regular period like bleeding throughout pregnancy... AF finished about 10th Sept, last BFN was end of Aug...
I tend to have a lot of CM around ov and it changes a lot in TWW, from nothing to creamy to watery to bucket loads!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 13:47

I have heard about getting periods throughout pregnancy. Would it be too cray cray to suggest POAS....?

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 17:21

Not at all, it's in the family... I e always had regular periods but I'm excessively hairy lol

OP posts:
PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 17:22

Sorry - misread as PCOS lol but both are viable options :) didn't know if I was being stupid thinking of POAS and didn't wanna be obsessive!!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 18:19

That made me giggle so much Prty!!

So...you reckon it's worth ruling out?
