Keep us up to date Hun
Xxx

charlotte1990 · 22/04/2016 08:51

Gave in and tested today but came back negative think it's too early.. due on Tuesday and must be 9dpo x

FrazzleRock · 22/04/2016 09:17

Oh love, let us know how you get on. Hopefully it is just uterus stretching. I have my fingers and toes tightly crossed for you x

charlotte Sounds like it. Try again in a few days, maybe Sunday or Monday?

Danielle If AF isn't due for ten days, isn;t it a bit early for AF niggles? Fingers crossed it's something else!

Luv Good luck with the results for next week. It's so frustrating isn't it. My cycles used to last 100+days, but at least I knew that was down to the bastard PCOS. Let us know how you get on won't you.

As for me, DP was complaining last night in bed that I was roasting hot, he said I was like a radiator. I didn't feel hot in myself though, just normal. Is that a preg symptom? My cheeks (on my face) were really hot all afternoon yesterday, too. I felt normal though, a little cold if anything! But had to hold a bottle of water to my face to cool my cheeks down. I remember being rosy cheeked with my last pregnancy...
Also, I still so thirsty! Last time I loved anything orange flavoured and it seems to have come back. I always drink plain water but I'm so sick of the taste of water right now and keep wanting orange squash. On the tube en route to work this morning I told DP I just want a cube of orange Jubbly (you know those triangle lolly things you by unfrozen). He loooked at me and said "Hmmm... you said the same last time...." I also devoured all the orange Moams he bought the other day in one fell swoop!

Am I just reading too much into this? It's driving me mad.
I WILL TEST TOMORROW.

I should know for sure by then if that line was imaginary/evap.

SoozC · 22/04/2016 13:11

Love, thinking if you and sending sticky thoughts. I really hope everything is okay for you.

Frazzle, I'm on cycle #4 now. So not that long! But DP and I have been together 8 years and I'm 34 so I've spent a few years wishing for children before now and being sad at the arrival of AF. So it seems like I've been trying years! I am feeling more philosophical today and telling myself I just need to relax. Hard to do, easy to say, but I'm trying. I use Ovia and FF already.

DanielleAmelia1 · 22/04/2016 14:38

Hey!
Frazzle that's what I thought, but I never know with my body .. I'm hoping it's a good sign rather than af tbh lol
I've got 9 days now until I can test according to the ovia app .. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Hoping everyone gets the answers they want and need :) xxxx

GerberaDaisy · 22/04/2016 20:39

Got a BFP this afternoon - wowza! My son took 6 cycles to conceive so both me and DH are a little surprised to say the least on cycle 2... I hope you lovelies will be joining me soon?! It's still very early days obviously, but to be honest I have been feeling symptoms since around 3 DPO. Some say that's not possible but I've been tracking it and definitely started having cramping and feeling fatigued from 3 DPO. Fingers crossed to all of you waiting for your BFP xx

GerberaDaisy · 22/04/2016 20:40

Also any news Love? How did it go with GP? Xx

Frantasic · 22/04/2016 21:36

Congratulations Daisy! This should be known as the luckiest thread on mumsnet. Hope you have a smooth pg. Flowers

I'm still lurking to see how everyone gets on.

I'm hoping Love is ok. I'm gonna stick around until there is news.

ButtonTum · 22/04/2016 22:05

Hey all, can I join? I'm on 4 dpo, cd20 on cycle 1. I'm symptom spotting like mad but as this is #1 I've no idea what my 'normal' is. Sore boobs, a little bit of dizziness, really deep sleep (like waking up in the position I fell asleep in). But.. 4 dpo.. I'm imagining things, right.

congratulations daisy and good luck frazzle for tomorrow!

GerberaDaisy · 22/04/2016 22:46

Thank you! Fingers crossed and positive thoughts to you guys too xx

lovewatchingrainfall · 23/04/2016 07:44

All sounds good on the symptom front Frazzle i was like a radiator too. Let us know how the testing goes when you test.

Congratulations Gerbera

Hope everyone else is okay.

Update I went to the doctors who in turn sent me to the EPU who in turn sent me to A&E after having an appointment with the doctors at 10 am i finally got home 10 pm. Was a long day. They managed to date me at 5 weeks 4 days so now 5 weeks 5 days this morning. However they think the pain i am getting is either due to my Appendix and there was talk of having them taking out under strict rules that if i get worse or start to bleed then i have to go straight back to A&E.
However they had noticed when they did an ultra sound that my right ovary which is where i get the pain has released and egg!!! They are not sure why this has happened and what problems it will cause me or the pregnancy so its a waiting game.. and still feel that i am no better off knowing what is going on or what is going to happen.

OMG Congratulations to you Gerbera!!

Love what the hell? Shock Man that is very confusing. I didn't even know that was possible!

FrazzleRock · 23/04/2016 08:52

button welcome! And I have had symptoms since about 3dpo (mostly unbearable metal mouth) so that is very much a possibility. Huge luck!!

lovewatchingrainfall · 23/04/2016 09:08

Congratulations Frazzle!! ThanksThanks

Tell me about it. I didn't know that it could happen either.

Congratulations gerbera and yay frazzle congratulations...
When is your period due? I'm due Tuesday tested this morning and still negative so gutted really hope I am 😢

charlotte1990 · 23/04/2016 09:46

Love glad you are OK and baby is showing the right size to what you thought xx

GerberaDaisy · 23/04/2016 09:54

Congratulations Frazzle!

So Love is that good news?! Xx

FrazzleRock · 23/04/2016 12:01

Well that was short lived. Just as I stuck two fingers up to PCOS, I started bleeding.
I'm not sure how heavy it is yet but I'm not feeling hopeful. Think I'm out Sad

Frantasic · 23/04/2016 13:14

Frazzle... That's exactly what happened to me, bfp's then bleeding.I'm still having mild pg symptoms but haven't bothered testing since the blood BFN. I'm thinking of going to my GP on Monday (again). It could be a chemical. Sorry you're having the same thing, it's horrible not knowing what's going on in there. Xxx

FrazzleRock · 23/04/2016 15:09

It is horrid not knowing. Will you bother testing again? What's your gut instinct?
I'll see how this bleeding goes and test again Monday but I am very realistic.
I feel a lot better about it than last time. I guess I only knew for a few hours. Just wanna crack on a try again, really.

I have booked an appointment with my consultant for Monday arvo so hopefully he can shed some light on why my body has rejected another pregnancy.

FrazzleRock · 23/04/2016 15:13

It's weird though because in the ten years I was with my ex I only got pregnant twice (both successful). I assumed the long time trying was all about me and my PCOS.
I've only been with my DP 10 months and we've had two pregnancies (first time was fluke and we were monster careful, this time was planned).
So I guess the silver lining is we can get pregnant easily together, just keeping them seems to be the issue.

Frantasic · 23/04/2016 15:37

My gut instinct is to test again dispite the blood bfn. But I'm not sure if I'm just being ridiculous at this point. I don't know. I nearly bought a test this morning.

The good this is I'm no longer stressed about it, just confused. X

FrazzleRock · 23/04/2016 21:39

Mabe just test if your gut is telling you to. At least then it'll draw a line underneath all this. It's a very confusing time.

I'm deffo out. heavy bleeding. Well as heavy as a normal heavy period anyway. Nothing could survive this I don't think.
Just can't believe it's happening again, I thought this would be a good second chance for us. I guess it'll have to be third time lucky and hope I fall pregnant again just as quick.
This is the silver lining. It took ages to get preg with the DC. I was with my ex for 10 years and only got preg twice. Been with my DP 10 months and have been pregnant twice, just such a shame they didn't stick. Especially our first one which got to nearly 9 weeks Sad

Hopefully this time next month us unlucky ones will have our BFPs on the next two week wait thread xx
