First time ttc - thread four

[bassetmum]

Starting the next thread for us all from ttc thread 3

I know! I have just had a relatively large glob of ewcm as well. Definitely bding tonight.

My stats again

Ttc #1 obviously
Cycle 2
Cd 13

Isnt a rise in temps a good thing?

Crochet is amazingly addictive. I have lost count how many wips (works in progress) I have.

My weekend hasnt been too bad apart from the headache haha. On another weird note my puppy has decided she doesn't want anything to do with me. No cuddles, not listening to me. Dunno if its just her being a teenager at 6 months old or whether its me. Hmmm.

Symtom spotting here also. I has a migraine this weekend woke up at 3am saturday morning with it, so I think my symptoms are just how I feel after a migraine.
Was getting sick Saturday morning, then felt tired all day. Saturday evening and this morning also feel a little sick and tired.
bassetmum I have taken tablets for the migraine yesterday, I suffer with them and doctor said its okay now to take them in the TWW but once I am pregnant I can only take Paracetamol for the first 12 weeks if I have to then after that I can take my prescribed tablets again.

Boobs starting to feel sore but thats what I would normally get before AF so not reading to much into it.
Im fully expecting AF this day next week.

It did the same thing last month basset which is why I'm trying to ignore the "implantation dip!!!" voice in my head ha ha

Moody puppy! Get the treats out ha ha

Just got back from gym (no ab work just in case), then will do another crochet lesson, then prep my healthy meals for the week. Very relaxing

Aww they do go through a very teenager-y stage at that age bassetmum I am a beagle mummy :) he's almost 14 months haha

Fx for you pjs, I know I egged you on last month so I will try and be reserved this month and respect your decision not to test until next weekend (you're crazy!!!) However that's good it's back up over coverline again!

Maybe I should give crochet a go, I tried knitting before and was useless at it. My mum lost her patience with me several times trying to teach me and I had a fair amount of temper tantrums hahah

hells I feel for you, fx it clears up soon. I used to get awful migraines on the pill and be in bed for days but luckily I haven't had a single one since I came off.

Hi everyone just checking all your updates.

After driving myself insane symptom spotting I have ruled myself out at cd23 dpo5-7. This is on the basis of no obvious symptoms and really running but lotion like cm. I think that's the cm of a normal menstrual cycle that hasn't been disturbed by conception

Starting to understand how disappointed this whole process can be! Plus side...if no bfp then definitely a boozey weekend break to Amsterdam in Nov!

Well I think I have gone tww crazy. I went to bed with a slight ache in my knee, woken up to it being really painful so Ive just googled knee pain early pregnancy. Need to step away from google haha

Afternoon ladies. Well, I'm still waiting for AF. Absolutely no sign at all. I had LOADS of EWCM this weekend, and again today. Had some pain really low down on the right over the weekend but today, nothing again. Temps still up and down like a yoyo. 

And for all that remember I had bloods done last week because I've been having lots of back, pelvis and joint pain. It looks like they've found something so I'm back next week to discuss the results. 

mouse fx nothing serious or at least easy to treat! Are u still testing for ov?

basset I lolled at you googling knee pain early pregnancy... if you could see my search history right now. So far I have convinced myself that cramps, slight constipation, dizziness and a new small purple vein on the boob is a sure sign I'm up duffed. Then had some moment of doubt ( my post above ) and googled what it means to have no symptoms before af and apparently that means u could be pg too.

Lesson- all symptoms are something or nothing. Every woman is different. You should only even think about whipping yourself in to a frenzy when af is definitely late and don't even think about poas before then...

Lesson learnt? NO! How soon can I poas? My af is due in 8 days...

Heather I'd test in 8 days. Wait till you are due AF. I know it's tempting to do it before but it's really not worth going mad over. And don't worry. I had hiccups for 4 days last week and googled that!! Haha. I have OP sticks coming soon so will probably use them until AF arrives. Temps are so erratic I can't really use them.

mouse sounds like you are gearing up to ov, first cycle off pill can be super long! Hopefully bloods reveal something easy to treat :) Dr's surgeries are no good at making things sound un-scary! I have serious health conditions but they still phone me all sombre to come in for results when it's just anaemia!

I've just come to the end of 10 days of spotting and period... Not particularly fun! Finally seems to have stopped now, not a clue what that was about!

Heather I think we are at similar stages I'm on cycle day 24, cycle is usually 30 days five or take, so trying to hold off to POAS till 1st November if AF doesn't show but I doubt I can wait that long! I had a Positive OPK on day 18 so think I ova either then or day after. Good luck xx

Give not five!

Haha I am currently having an internal battle with holding off and not testing before the weekend vs why not test Thursday so I am not much help Heather.

Although I have spent all day lying to colleagues about taking ibuprofen and it just doesn't seem to be working with my knee. Currently sat with a heat pack on it to try and ease the pain.

Mouse I think I saw somewhere you think it's either arthritis or your thyroid both of them are treatable. I am sure if it was really serious they would be pushing to get you in asap. All your symptoms sound to me like you are either gearing up for ovulation or you have already over the weekend.

Yeah basset I think it's either those. Of course I hope it's treatable or curable with a good diet. I've had absolutely no pain today. It's been LOVELY!! I've had niggles the last week and before that a constant belly ache. So this is great.

Sorry ladies but this is probably TMI. Is it normal to be literally swimming in CM? I've had crap loads this past 3 days. I had a little bit around days 8-14 but this is something else. It's taking me 3 or 4 wipes to get clean when going to the loo!!!! Underwear, no sign of anything lol.

It could be your uterus clearing everything out after being on the pill Mouse

Last night I had a huge glob (ew, sorry) of mucus when I went to clean up after DTD, I think it was the thick mucus type stuff which stops sperm from getting through the cervix when you're on the pill. Definitely wasn't what I'd normally expect to see!

Maybe, it's been like this for. 3 days. I had a few days earlier in my cycle where I had a little EWCM but this is LOADS, very wet and stringy and clear. Not so much thick either apart from a little thick stuff on Saturday. I'll have to have a read about mucus plug! Might be that!!

Never thought I'd be jealous of CM, but I am! Sounding good mouse!
*
Basset* - am supposed to be able to rest on Weds, but I need to hold off until Sat (if AF doesn't arrive first).

CD25 and 14dpo here - still no symptoms (other than the beginnings of a cold (sore throat, sneezing), but it's that time of year) so am assuming AF will be with me soon. Predicting my temps to take a plunge tomorrow or day after tomorrow!

Test not rest! I wish I could rest!

And am 13dpo - jeez, this cold has given me a woolly brain...

Pyjamas here... have some. Hahahaha. (Hands a cup of goop) ewwwww sorry haha

Ah Pyjamas81 we are around the same time. I can test tomorrow also but going to hold of until AF is due on Saturday/Sunday.
Iv a sore throat, stomach not the best but I really think its all in my head and Im making myself believe I have PG symptoms. Boobs still sore but they always get sore before AF.

bassetmum I took ibuprofen over the weekend for my Migraine - ekk hopefully I didn't mess up my chances this month. Hope the knee is feeling better this morning!

Hope everyone has a lovely Tuesday.

My AF is due tomorrow hells, but I will wait until Saturday! Have a feeling AF will show and won't have to wait anyway. I haven't had any symptoms at all!

And thanks mouse! Hahahahaha

Ah sorry Pyjamas81 fingers crossed that it stays away.
