I've been listening Awen! I think PeachyClair was kidding us about norks only working in 1st pg...

Why can't you clean the fishes and the hamster?

I can't think about testing yet.

cazzybabs · 20/03/2007 17:07

I only had sore norks with the 1st one - mind you I was still bf when I got pregranant with dd2. But I too have 1 sore one! Very strange!

I think yes - quit the generic multivit and start a prenatal one. Once again trying to resist the temptation to test... sure AF is on her way.

FC2007 · 20/03/2007 18:08

awen
definately quit any multi-vitamins with vitamin A in them. Its a toxin to foetus. Just recoverign from shock of realising that the lovely antioxidant vitamins I started takign at teh weekend contain vitamin A. realised this morning and spat the thing out feel a bit stupid missing it. Kinda hoping that a couple of days wouldnt make that much difference is I were preg this month.

PeachyClair · 20/03/2007 18:57

Actually norks isn't usually with no 2- you don't usually get the norkage in the same way either. More's the pity, I need it myself! The tissue in the breast (ooh get me ) doesn't mature until your first pg, however for subsequent pg's that process has occurred.

Althopugh you might get breast tingling as per PMT for hormonal reasons.

I have had hyperemesis X3, so I will know if I am pg

kerm · 20/03/2007 19:11

There's a thread in Conception, a few weeks ago, on people who've been pg with no symptoms. I've had loads of "pg symptoms" plenty of times and not been pg. The two times I was actually pg, I had very little. Felt fine, no sore boobs, no cramps, no sickness etc.

MamaMaiasaura · 20/03/2007 20:11

oo just read you post fruitful. NOt sure wheter to post this here now or not or wether it is all psychosymatic or if i could be experiencing symptomns on CD 24. Been sick 6 times tonight.. not full blown but a bit each time, like when youre really hungover. Feel ick/nauseos still. Is it too early to be dsiplaying symptons?

bbaymamma - fish water contains stuff harmful to feotus and also so does hamster wee.

I am consdiering going to supermarket now for pre-natal vits now. Really woried as been taking generic vitamin daily.

cazzybabs · 20/03/2007 20:14

ohh awen - have you eater anything dodgy or are you daring to dream? With twins you get sympons earlier! Only 4 days to go though I would guess till your AF is due! When are you going to test?

OP posts:
MamaMaiasaura · 20/03/2007 20:17

today I have eaten 1 bowl of porridge, 1 apple, 1 digestive, 4 small chipolatas, small portion of potato & some peas... as clomid chance of multiple.. worried about daring to dream tempted to test altho it wouldnt show this early would it?

cazzybabs · 20/03/2007 20:20

sorry to be so thick what is clomid? What does it do?

OP posts:
fruitful · 20/03/2007 20:37

Awen if you have enough hcg in your blood to make you sick then you have enough to show on a pg test. I think, anyway.

Don't panic about the vitamin A. You actually have to overdose quite badly to do damage. Just stop taking them now!

MamaMaiasaura · 20/03/2007 20:59

cazzybabs -clomid is meant to make you ov - used for fertility treatmetn - in my case polycystic ovaries.

Fruitful just gone out to get vits and picked up pg test - tescos own and clear blue early test. Have had a tinkle but showing neg.. (didnt wait full 2 min as if going to be os it shoudl show up straight away - altho will check bin later) it does say tho if testting early use first pee of the day and only 53% accurate so trying to keep positive.

fruitful · 20/03/2007 21:13

Hmm, 53% accurate is only slightly better than just flipping a coin isn't it?

I hate tests. I'm due today, af still not here. Feels like it is about to. I have a clearblue test in my cupboard now. Wondering whether to do it tomorrow morning. Trouble is I just know that if I do, af will arrive straight after.

MamaMaiasaura · 20/03/2007 22:49

It is a hard one. how about trying to wait till Thursday morning? I feel stupid for testing on CD24. Trying to keep positive esp as my left boob is now a bit tender/tingly and harder.

Still nauseous when eating/drinking.

Despite all postive signs still BD just in case and for fun too .. he said if I am pg is down to his superior sperm! bless him

peanutbutter · 21/03/2007 08:01

well done loopymumsy, congrats!

FC2007 · 21/03/2007 08:24

well time to throw my name into my hat and move over to the April thread. Godd luck to everyone. xx

cazzybabs · 21/03/2007 08:47

FC2007 - here is to April being your month (and possibly mine!)

OP posts:
Bbabymumma · 21/03/2007 09:48

Good luck for next month FC2007. Prob see you in April in week!

Any news Fruitful?

Awen how is the sickness and norks today?

I have nothing. Keep shouting at dh is that a sign?? Didn't know about the fish and hamster or the Vitamin A! Knew about cat poo if that helps.

Bbabymumma · 21/03/2007 09:55

PeachyClair - just looked up hyperemesis. Ohhhhh not good!!

FC2007 · 21/03/2007 11:29

Bbaby - what have I missed about fish?!!

Bbabymumma · 21/03/2007 11:44

Dirty fish tank water contains harmful stuff for foetus's. That's why Arwen wouldnt clean out the fish. If that was my house the fish would be living in their own filth for a long time...

fleacircus · 21/03/2007 11:48

Thank goodness, AF has arrived. I'm really glad not to be pg this month, my due date would have been my sister's birthday and I'd truly hate to steal her thunder.

MamaMaiasaura · 21/03/2007 12:24

CD25 now. Still sick. Felt ok waking this morning till I ate breakfast. Thankfully wasnt physically sick. Been sent home from work as really pale and ick. MIght well be a tummy bug.

Norks are less tingly today so perhaps in my head.

tbh am really as just got off phone to fertility secretary to get rseults for blood test had done on friday. She cant give me all of them and consultant not in till tomorrow. She said the progesterone was very low at 1.1 which could show that I didnt ov.. hence not pg. She did say that this is only a snapshot and is only as good as the day it was taken and doesnt mean i havent at all. Really confused and sad. Thought I could handle it but my voice was breaking as I was saying thankyou and goodbye on the phone. I am such an idiot.

NO idea if to expect an AF or if indeed it has all worked.. or if it hasnt that an AF is unlikely to show anyway so will need to induce one and start clomid again.. .. sorry for harping on
