Yes found the link on the old thread thank you @carastarchild! Did you do anything nice for your birthday?

I'm feeling very yucky, morning sickness has hit me hard the past week or so! I'm off eating and drinking most things and constantly feel very sick. I'm keeping positive and seeing it as a sign that the baby is busy growing and developing though 😊

ChikiTIKI · 23/10/2018 20:37

Lovely to hear from you @Galmour and @Curly. Sorry about the sickness @Glamour hopefully it settles soon!

I love that we have a graduates section in the stats now :) xxx

Carastarchild · 23/10/2018 21:18

Glamour I remember having terrible nausea. I used to eat dry rice krispies. It's all I could stomach.... then the hunger set in Fx it won't last too long for you 🤗 It will be all worth it in the end.

We had a family get-together and some cake. I'm not the sort that likes a fuss. I got loads of lovely presents. It was relaxing to be honest. I'm still eyeing the bottle of prosecco 😂

I thought the graduates section would help us know that our name will be there as well soon 🙏⭐🙏

@LottieB87 congrats !!!! How exciting x

anitagreen · 23/10/2018 22:13

I'm nearly 5dpo so not even close to testing yet but today I feel so tired and sick I did wonder for a minute if I am pregnant.. then I realised implantation wouldn't of even happened yet lol. X

BLS1983 · 23/10/2018 22:52

@LottieB87 me too :-). On top of the spotting the nausea is getting worse this evening. 🤔

BLS1983 · 23/10/2018 22:54

Sorry @LottieB87 that should have said thanks me too :-).

LottieB87 · 24/10/2018 08:48

@GlamourBear and @Curlywurly3 great to see you! Thank you for the messages! Sorry to hear you're feeling yucky @GlamourBear, how many weeks are you now? xx

@ChikiTIKI how is your baby today? Poor little thing x

@Carastarchild getting close!!! Exciting!!! Everything crossed!

Sorry to disappoint but I had zero symptoms that were different to previous non-pregnant months! Same cramps, same spots popping up on my face, no sensitive boobs or anything. CM was maybe slightly yellower? Only thing was I started spotting on Saturday evening (12dpo) 2 days before AF was due, so I was pretty convinced it was AF coming early. Just a very small amount of dark brown.

DP still doesn't know! Last night I had a dinner after work with a colleague/friend who is leaving, so thought I'd wait til tonight when we have time together. I don't know how I'm keeping it in! I'm nervous!

Curlywurly3 · 24/10/2018 10:20

Just to let you lovely ladies know, the only symptoms I had was feeling tired and my left boob started to hurt! They both hurt now, nipple chafing on the duvet isn't great!! 🙈 The worry continues though as I have period like cramping, no spotting but it is causing me some concern.

Anyway, enough of my anxiety! Who is next to get their BFP.. is it you @Carastarchild?

Xx

Carastarchild · 24/10/2018 13:45

Hi ladies 💜

Curly I think I am next according to days past ovulation. I'm just trying to get to the weekend. I should be 9dpo by Saturday. Then the poas resisting begins. They are so expensive! That's a deterrent in it's self. How are you feeling now?

Lottie I actually believe the month that I don't get symptoms is the month I will be pregnant. How are you going to tell your DP? I have always thought I would do something amazingly sprcial to announce it, but I probably will blurt it out in total excitement 😁

@BLS when was your last period?

Chiki how are you and your baby feeling today?

Flossytots I hope you are doing well. Any update?

How is everyone else?

BLS1983 · 24/10/2018 14:26

Hi @Carastarchild it was 2nd -7th Oct x

Carastarchild · 24/10/2018 17:35

BLS that would mean you are on CD 23. Did you have any indication of when ovulation occurred. EWCM, pain in your side, feeling more frisky 😂

anitagreen · 24/10/2018 17:43

Hey everyone really strange I'm nearly 6dpo and I've broken out in spots on my face really weird for me, I'm very tired. I have lots of aches and pains in my lower back, and feeling very very sick. Hasn't stopped me eating though lol. But all very strange x

Carastarchild · 24/10/2018 17:59

Anita I have been feeling so so tired all day as well 😴 I actually feel like going for a nap. Spots can be caused by hormonal fluctuations.

BLS1983 · 24/10/2018 18:37

@Carastarchild it's been a really odd cycle. Following a mega 42 day cycle just gone I was really frisky the day before period then wondered if I ovulated about 4 days after period had finished. Have recorded EWCM on days 8 and 10. DTD on days 11, 13, 16 and 18. Spotted from day 17 to 22. Have been doing CB ovulation year in morning and cheapie amazon in afternoon all the way through my usual ovulation time and nothing but then it is my first month testing. Nausea since day 19 only getting better when I eat so I'm over eating. Wow! And I wasn't supposed to be symptom spotting this month! X

BLS1983 · 24/10/2018 18:40

@Carastarchild I see you are a little further in your cycle than me. Or have shorter cycles ? X

BLS1983 · 24/10/2018 18:41

Hi @anitagreen I hope the sickness is a good sign for you x

ChikiTIKI · 24/10/2018 18:49

Hi everyone. I've just entered the modern world and downloaded the mumsnet app. I hope I am posting this comment on the right thread!

My baby is better this evening thank you but I was very worried about her last night. She had an awful fever and suddenly fell asleep 2 hours before bed time without having her evening meal or milk. Doctor happy that she doesn't have a chest infection though so that's great news. She had her one year jabs cancelled last week due to fever and they are rescheduled for 1st November, when I am ovulating. Baby making might end up taking a back seat this month if my baby needs me instead! :) xxxx

anitagreen · 24/10/2018 19:24

@Carastarchild we are in the same dpo I do believe? I'm also so excited for Christmas
And I'm getting a bit of cramping tonight hoping it'll be implantation lol x

anitagreen · 24/10/2018 19:25

@BLS1983 thank you and hiya I'm hoping it is too but think I'm clutching at straws I either ovulated the 19th or earlier x

Carastarchild · 24/10/2018 19:47

BLS I am on CD 22, and I am 6dpo. I use the the Clear blue advanced fertility monitor. My cycles are usually pretty much the same month to month. I did ovulate CD 16 this month, which was two days later than last month. I hope you get clarity soon. Nothing worse than limbo land.

Anita I love Christmas too! I'm a child at heart 😉 Fx for you! The next few days will be tough, and exciting all at once x

Chiki poor little baby 😔 Nothing worse than they are sick. Hopefully your little one will be feeling better soon.
