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

Arggggghhhhhh bloody kids.....what a crappy afternoon...
To top it all went in Tesco to try to buy more trousers and the only ones with elastic waist would make me look bloody awful :(

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 18:27

Hmmm think it's made things worse!! Bought a 2 for £1 Asda cheapies - never used them before.
After the three minutes and another five of obsessive staring I convinced myself there was the tiniest hint of a line, probably evap. Present it to OH and open my mouth to explain I've been staring at it forever and thinking of a way to explain evap lines without sounding too cray cray, all I got out was 'can you see that?' And he says 'that faint line, yeah'
I explain about evap and he agrees it could well be that esp considering the cycle timing... then he says 'wait a few weeks and test again' WEEKS?! What is wrong with him?? Thinking of buying an expensive test tomorrow...

Um...picture...now??!

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 18:33

Haha it doesn't really show very well at all on a pic unfortunately, sure it's just an evap

Well, if it's that faint line on the left that's the same distance from the middle dots as the right one is then yeah, that's a line!

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 18:36

Yeah aindy that's the line we think we can see... not really pink though or overly strong. Will see what Saturday's FMU says on an expensive test!

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 18:42

Yeah, you don't even have to squint to see it. It's there...Hmm

Can you remember if there was anything different about AF at all?

neetie1 · 17/09/2015 18:43

Well have just ordered asda maternity trousers so at least I will have something to wear for work... ooohh prty fx'd

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 18:47

Aww neetie if it's comfy then it's comfy :)
Don't know aindy I'm convinced it's just evap... period was lighter - only 3ish days of real bleeding with spotting either side and 1 heavy day, normally 4-5 days long, 2 days heavy with no spotting... also, sorry for this one, but it didn't really smell, had no cramps either which is unusual for me

Ooo blimey just did a due date calculator just in case this is the month and it says 3rd June...day before my birthday :)

Emzlou15 · 17/09/2015 18:55

So I've been away from the thread for a few days because I was getting a bit down about coming off the pill and not having a period or any positives. I last tested on the 28th and it was negative so I was waiting for a period to come on. I had a speck of blood on the 5th and I decided to buy some cheapies online. Well they finally arrived today and. I'm pregnant! They came up with two thick lines within 30 secs. In disbelief me and DH ran to the store and bought a Clearblue digi and it verified the results. I am still in shock I feel the tests are lying to me lol the strangest thing is that DH said to me yesterday that he thought I was pregnant for a week! So strange. Maybe he can sniff out pregnancy haha! Anyway I hope you all get your positives soon. Thank you for all the support I have received through my crazy times :)

Emzlou15 · 17/09/2015 18:56

Sorry forgot to attach the evidence!

Woop woop!!! Congrats emz this really is lucky thread!!

Ellamorella · 17/09/2015 19:13

Wow prty I can see a feint line, deffo! It does seem to add up. Ooh, you must be a ball of suspense!! Fingers crossed for you!! Is there not a late night boots or supermarket you can go to?

Emz congratulations!! Is that your first cycle trying?

I'm having the worst period ever!! It's come on really strong and dark with loads of clots. I mean loads! When I pee, there's a ton of floaters in the loo, plus clots when I wipe. Quite big ones!! Is that normal? Do you think I need to worry? I'm beginning to worry it's something sinister. Plus, I'm just rudiculously tired! I'm going to take a couple of spoonfuls of floras if when I get home, to see if it helps!! Can't wait for this one to be over!

neetie crossing my fingers for you too hon. When are you due??

Ellamorella · 17/09/2015 19:14

Floradix (iron suppliment) not flora!!

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 19:21

Woohoo, nice one Emz. So please for you after that uncertainty. That made my boobs tingle! Flowers

So strange Prty, especially the no cramps, then sudden onset of symptoms later. My previous appt with Dr Google said that sometimes bleeding happens during pregnancy as there is just so much blood flow near your cervix. So it would likely have more red in it rather than dark with clots.

Out of interest, when you had that pink tinge when you wiped (the other day?), had you recently DTD or even the night before? Sometimes that can cause spotting (if he hits the cervix Shock) during Pg. If ahem you are, of course.

nibbles fingers and tries not to get too overexcited

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 19:24

Ella that sounds like my normal periods. Could be a sign of a good thick lining! If you really are worried, take a test anyway (as a previous poster on here suggested to me) as if it was something sinister, it would show up

Smile
themoo · 17/09/2015 19:33

Yay ems!!!!

Prty, TOMORROW?? FMU on SATURDAY?? You loonbag, I'd have been out the door within seconds. That, my friend is self control!
Anyway, I can see a line, so my fingers, legs and eyes are crossed for you my old love x

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 19:40

ella yeah there 24 hour supermarkets but wanna use FMU to be sure and OH is out before I'm up in the morning so Saturday is first chance we would have to test together
aindy yeah, we had DTD the night before... still getting a pink tinge today though, try not to fill up on fingernails haha!
Thanks moo I'll keep you posted :)

themoo · 17/09/2015 20:16

Do. And if it doesn't work out we'll be here with our bonkers boobs and funny foofs to keep you going.

Speaking of bonkers, I'm 4dpo and I can TASTE tap water today, even in tea and juice and stuff. What's that about?

Totes not symptom sporting though, obvs.

neetie1 · 17/09/2015 20:49

ella next thurs or sat depending which app i look on lol

SharyBobbins · 17/09/2015 21:16

Blimey it's all going on here today isn't it!!

Congratulations Emz!

Prty you might be able to wait until Saturday but not sure we can!!

SharyBobbins · 17/09/2015 21:17

Oh Ella your book arrived today!

PrtyPsn · 17/09/2015 21:20

Haha deep breaths shary there's nothing to wait for - it's just an evap line... looking at my last cycle (if for arguments sake we are discounting my period last week) then I'm about 20dpo - you would expect a strong positive from that, not a squinty line
