MrsWednesday · 10/10/2004 06:59

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's a pg symptom Minnie1! How much longer until you can test?

Anyone else testing soon? Runtus, did you do another one on Friday? And Tessiebear, were you going to do one yesterday?

Have been thinking about you all weekend Cobweb, I'm hoping that everything is ok.

Good luck everyone.x

hester · 10/10/2004 08:50

I'm testing Wednesday. Hopes aren't high, though, as I've had my usual premenstrual cramps Feeling very sad about it right now. Best of luck to all of us this month.

jeddah · 10/10/2004 08:51

Thanks to everyone for all the welcomes!!!

Hester.....yes it is my first attempt at this baby making malarki!

Been to GP and all my tests are normal, but my DH swimmers were slightly lower than normal (in amount and mobility)...he smokes and we have been through a rough time recently as I am trying to get him to see that, HE NEEDS TO STOP IF WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A BETTER CHANCE AT HAVING A BABY......sorry girls but he is doing my head in!

must go! hes just come in form the farm.....wanting breaky!

Jeddah.xxx

Sexyandhappy · 10/10/2004 09:35

Well I wish I had menstrual cramps or something remotely hormonal .... Since mid-July I have had 1 period only.... I can't remember when I saw "egg white" discharge ... I have hot flashes, am moody ,.... could it be pre-menopause ? I am 36 only but started puberty very late.... DH says it could be ...
Anyone have any thoughts/knowledge ????

jeddah · 10/10/2004 10:16

sexandhappy

just read your note about hormones ........ have you recently come off the pill?
If you went through pubity late ......usually this would mean you will menopause later aswell.

Have you been to the GP? I went along to mine with my DH and we both got tested.....dead easy results back in a week....then at least you know what is happening for sure........as its the not knowing that makes us cheesed off!.... just adds to it all. Ask your GP for fertility testing for both of you.

jeddah · 10/10/2004 10:24

Hi mrs Wednesday!!!

here we go again, just ovulated yesterday......day 23!!!! taking vit B6 to prolong my luteal phase...so we will see this month, if my dh swimmers have done their job!

by the way.....dead cheap pregnancy tests on www.earlypregnancy.co.uk
I got 25 ovulation sticks and 10 pregnany tests for £14!

Made4it · 10/10/2004 13:40

hi ya, have you tried testing with FSH test kits at all? Its a good & cheap way of seeing if you might be entering a pre-menopausal phase. Here is a quick bit about it & the web address to by the tests for home detection.

\link{http://earlypregnancy.co.uk/}

Everything you need to accurately determine if you are experiencing elevated FSH levels.

The tests are aimed at women between the ages of 30 and 55, where raised levels of FSH may be associated with reducing fertility.

Women experiencing reduced fertility, recently missed periods, hot flushes, night sweats, etc, can now easily and cheaply test if these symptoms are the result of elevated FSH.

The test kit works by measuring the urinary levels of the hormone FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone).

You collect and test a urine sample at Weekly intervals and TWO or more consecutive weekly positive results are considered significant.

Made4it · 10/10/2004 13:46

sorry can't figure out how to add a link properly. Web address should be:

www.earlypregnancy.co.uk

Cobweb · 10/10/2004 19:02

Hi girls I have had a weird weekend. Some blood on the tissue after wiping on Friday night which was a bit brighter red in colour (sorry TMI) and nothing until after my bath this morning where there was some browny colour staining on my towel

I just don't know what to think. Got the scan tomorrow so I will find out then!

Has anyone tested this weekend - got my fingers crossed for you xxx

Thanks for all your messages of support xxx

Love Cobweb

Hulababy · 10/10/2004 19:50

Hi to all newcomers

Cobweb - have everything crossed for you; try and relax and take care.

How's everyone else?

Geordie · 10/10/2004 22:36

Sexyandhappy · 10/10/2004 22:40

Thanks Made4it and Jeddah
I will look into these suggestions I am just very sad about this. I even miss my pimples which I get just before my periods... how sad isn't it ?
Self pity is silly so I will take some action

Tania2 · 11/10/2004 07:28

G'day girls,
Wow alot has happened while i was away. Thank you girls for your hugs for my ds he seems alot better now.
Hugs to you cobweb hope all goes well with the scan today iam sure it will. I had bleeding when pg with ds and all went well. Alot of people to get that especially after sex while pg. Thoughts are with you today.
to those who af arrived
Good luck to those ready to test.
Well the wedding went really well very cold on friday but saturday the sun came out and it was a beautiful day. Had to share a bedroom with another couple so we didnt get to bd this w/end anyway. Think dh was too drunk to perform anyway. think iam oving now anyway have cm. Feel like i have wet myself and have white thick creamy stuff (tmi) sorry.

runtus · 11/10/2004 08:24

What a weekend, glad that is over! Started off by doing the second hpt on Friday night and got another BFN so decided to get hammered and watch our rugby team play for a place in the final....whcih they lost really really badly. Thought sod it and went to bed at 9.30 instead!

Sat was ok apart from period pains to die from, woke up yesterday and went shopping only to drive straight into someone else's car and cause shed loads of damage. Needless to say my dh found the whole thing very funny and hasn't stopped making jokes at my expense since and my insurance for next year will go through the roof.

Now I've realised I've left my phone at home ......

I want to go back to bed!

MINNIE1 · 11/10/2004 09:29

runtus, OMG ya poor girl!! your wkend was a right disaster.. You should bok the days off tommor and treat youself for a day of morning tv.. Hopr you feel better soon..

Well CD25 here, I don't think we have done the deed this month!!!. but mu boobs fell tingley, there usually a give away.. but have a gut feeling i'm not PG.. Will do a test on wed to see..
Hope you all are well and happy
and fingers crossed for you cobweb XXXXX

mrsflowerpot · 11/10/2004 09:32

Morning everyone, hope you are all well this morning.

Well, yesterday morning I did a test to prove to myself that I wasn't pg, all the while berating my own stupidness, and I got a BFP Spent all yesterday in shock and haven't stopped shaking yet! (after 21 months you would think I would be prepared, but no).

MommyD · 11/10/2004 09:36

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S mrsflowerpot....

LipstickMum · 11/10/2004 09:36

Hi everyone, hope you all had a good w/e. We had a fab time in London, second time away from dd. LOTS of shopping, fancy lunch and general self-indulgence ;)

Is anybody due to test some time this week?

Sorry you got a BFN Runtus and what a disaterous w/e in general.

I am due to get AF in Friday (cd25 today), I think I will wait and see before doing any testing. Don't want to get my hopes up. Perhaps next Monday...

LipstickMum · 11/10/2004 09:38

MRS FLOWERPOT!!! Real congratulations to you on your BFP That really is fabulous news for you !!

Sallie · 11/10/2004 09:41

Hi girls! Back at work today - left the kids at nursery and feeling really wobbly. Chatting on mumsnet is going to keep me sane - I can tell!!!

Twiga · 11/10/2004 09:46

Hurray Mrsflowerpot, ace news . So pleased for you, can also take this opportunity to say thank you, you were the first person to talk to me on mum's net and were so kind just when I needed it.

Runtus, what a pants weekend, hope it all picks up for you {{{hugs}}} x

CD21 here, not sure what the state of play is for this month and a bit nervous about the whole af thing, hoping hormones are a bit more sorted and that I'm back to normal this month, due around the 19th/20th.
