implantation bleeds and stuff

You do know me, it's just that I don't feel ready to talk about any pg issues openly yet - this soon after my mc I feel uncharacteristically reticent!

Since my last period we suddenly got broody, after having said we'd wait some time. So we did the tests, worked out my dates and did the deed last Saturday.

Now, I am not sure exactly when my last period started, but I would expect my next one to be 14 days after ovulation - surely whatever the length of your cycle, it is always 14 days after ovulation? So a bit of bleeding (stringy brown bits) yesterday - is that an implantation bleed? Is an implantation bleed usually accompanied by lower back period type pains? Or is all this in my head?

just reveal who you are.........

twolongtwoweeks · 22/08/2004 13:38

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Do you think you know???

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 14:28

Oooooh TLTW (that was close, had to think then ), i'm sooooo excited for you, whilst being absolutly terrified for myself, what a weird feeling it is.

Yes you are mad but then who isn't a bit nutty these days, I know i am for even letting the thought enter my head nevermind actually do something about it.

I too have just finnished giving all baby stuff away. All i have is a cot, that is falling apart.

TLTW I will be checking to see if you are on from the minute i get up tommorow. Thinking of you will gladly stop me thinking about myself.

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 14:30

Oh sorry meant to add that today I am weeing for england again and feeling yucky.
Also feeling thirsty and I think my boobs are sore which i don't think i get before AF, can't remember.

twolongtwoweeks · 22/08/2004 14:41

Hiya Nc, im scared!!! How long does it take for those tests to arrive??? I ordered them thursday

twolongtwoweeks · 22/08/2004 14:45

Also got the in laws here who are really excited cos my sister in law has just found out she is pregnant.

I have told Dp my suspicions and he agrees i have been commenting on smells lately. Good thing though he has agreed to me being steralized after the next one

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 14:48

I haven't a clue TLTW's, i've never oredered any before. Did it not say when you placed the order ???

I am going to wait until Friday and see how i feel, then i MIGHT order some.

Anyway why so scared ???

twolongtwoweeks · 22/08/2004 14:51

Because i was being flippant earlier in the week, saying how i had no symptoms. Really believed i wasnt. But this sense of smell thing is making me heave.

It could be cos im so tired though. Been out all weekend, a few late nights knocks me out and i do feel sick when tired. So maybe just that.

Wonder whats happening with Sshhhh and scared stupid????

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 14:53

Hmmm i dunno, it really sounds like you could be to me, but then what do i know.

I sway between being convinced that I am one minute to being convinced that i'm not the next. Thats probably whats making me feel sick

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 15:02

TBH I am really really scared too.

It has started keeping me awake at night now.

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 16:45

Hmmm, just tried to drink a cuppa, had two sips and tipped it down the sink

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 16:50

S**T, i just went to take some headache tablets and was gonna have codydromol. Dp said you can't take them if pregnant can you.
I checked and it says 'check with doc if pregnant'

I took two yesterday though as i had a bad head then too. I didn't think to check, how stupid of me.
Anyone know if they are bad to take in pregnancy ???

Oh nutcracker and tltw you sound like you're having a confusing time. I think I've lost the plot a bit. Can I try and summarise ... you've both got 3 already, you've both had a mc recently (or maybe it was just one of you) you both put in an order with the baby fairy a week ago, now you think that you may be pg and you are beginning to get scared in case you actually are, because that is such a big thing. Have I got that about right?

Forgive me if I have got totally confused about all of this - I do have an excuse - I'm pg!!!!

twolongtwoweeks · 22/08/2004 18:06

Oh god, Congrats sshhhh. When did you test??? I just hate not knowing!!Can we know your real name now and are you starting a due in May thread? Im so pleased for you

ssshhh · 22/08/2004 18:09

I think I'm due in April, actually. I'm not sure about when my last period started, and I'm not seeing my GP until next week.

I tested on Saturday morning, but I didn't say anything because dp doesn't like to talk about it to other people until we've had the 12 week scan (especially after last time). So I didn't tell anyone on mumsnet until after this weekend. So if you want to find out who I am, just go over to the summer party thread!

Oh Fisil, well done!!! I hope it all goes well for you, take it ease and dont lift heavy objects etc etc etc. I will be your mother hen for a while. I think you got mine and Nuttys description down to a tee. It doesnt matter how broody you are it is still scarey getting pregnant. I wasnt broody at all till i had a early mc. Made me realise life is too short and why wait.

I havnt spoke to you much on Mn but ive def seen you posting!!

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 21:31

Oooooh Ssshhh/Fisil Congratulations

Yep you got it all right about me except for the m/c.

I haven't got a clue if i am or not, it's driving me potty now.

One thing that makes me think i'm not is that i'm eating like a pig which i always due before af is due.

nutcracker · 22/08/2004 21:32

OMG see i even put due instead of do, thats how nutty it's driving me

Scaredstupid · 23/08/2004 10:16

Yeah Fisil! I am so happy for you! My ds is an April baby and spring babies are so lovely!

Nutcracker and TLTW: Sorry that you are still waiting and waiting. AGONY! Why is the first two weeks even longer than the 9 months?

I too am still waiting enlessly. DH pointed out that an 05/05/05 birthdate would be really great. He must have resigned himself to the fact that I have LOST THE PLOT!
