Ok Girls, last night (cd27) I was convinced AF was coming (see conversation I had with Hula).
I am in the waiting for AF/ wondering if I am pg stage of the cycle, the worst bit IMO. Shely had very wise words and suggested I test, even though I feel 'more' pregnant not knowing. I decided she was right, I needed to put myself out of my misery and I decided to test last night...

and I got a BFP!!!!

LipstickMum · 14/10/2004 09:34

I really wasn't expecting it, was steeling myself for a single line and disappointment. I still don't believe it, I thought the test was faulty and the line was faint, so I did another test this morning, but it was also a BFP!!
However, just to be sure, I am going to get another test today and test tomorrow morning. I just can't believe my eyes

I feel so bad for moaning last night about AF being on the way...

I suppose 2 tests can't be wrong, can they???

FAB news Lipstick - enjoy it, it really is happening!!!!!!!

MommyD · 14/10/2004 09:48

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S LipstickMum!!
Have you felt any different this week?

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:02

Lipstick - CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! - 5th Graduate????? Fantastic!!!!!

Georgesmum - same thing happened to me this month - thought i was oving around CD14 then got the eggwhite on CD22 - did some rushed BDing (as we had used up all our energy earlier in the cycle and hadnt done it since)!
MommyD - could it be Implantation cramping??? (Dont know much about this but am sure i have heard something of this nature discussed)
Tania yes Brazilian definately did the job - am a convert - will get it re-done next week Hoping it wont be as painful this time round as the hair is newer IYSWIM

Georgesmum - Re: getting you DH to "perform" around OV time - 1 word BRAZILIAN WAX!!!! Worth the pain - he will BD AT THE DROP OF A HAT and time of day or night

Shely - your story moved me to tears.... lots of hugs winging their way across a few continents to you.

Everyone - can i join the "did a HPT way too early and got a BFN" club. CD29 - only bloody OVed on CD22 - somebody please tell me why i was sooo stupid!

MommyD · 14/10/2004 10:07

Ta Tessiebear - it is very unlikely I am pg this month... bd on cd 10 and cd11. Then dh went away for a week. Ov on cd13.
Lots of pain on left ovary (similar but worse than the sharp pain I get at ov) so I know it's my ovary bothering me.

LipstickMum · 14/10/2004 10:14

MommyD, I have absolutely no symptoms whatsoever, except the mild cramping, like AF. This is exactly the same as my last pregnancy though. Even though we haven't been trying long, I am still in disbelief. Don't want to get too carried away. Is there a thread for us in-betweenies, I don't feel ready to jump on the "due in June" thread just yet I like you guys too much!

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:19

Lipstickmum- did you feel any different the week leading up to your BFP?

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:20

Sorry Lipstick - you have just answered my question!

MommyD · 14/10/2004 10:21

I too have had really bad AF pains just before AF was due with both my pregnancies.
It would be just TOO much to expect to fall pg this month - our first month of trying for #3 and we didn't really bd at the best time.
Hang around here LipstickMum! What number baby will this be for you?

LipstickMum · 14/10/2004 10:24

Sorry you tested too early Tessiebear Still, it was too early, there may be some hope later on. I only tested because I was putting myself through hell and just wanted to know some facts!

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:24

I agree MommyD - would be too much for me to ask for too to fall the first month trying!!! I am also TTC no.3. - first month off the mini-pill CD29 - must say my boobs feel v. Weird - almost burning - but if i OVed around CD22 it would be too early for symptoms anyway surely!

LipstickMum · 14/10/2004 10:26

MommyD, this will be #2 I have a dd who is 17 months
I should spread some of my babydust to you all ~~~~~~~~~~ it worked for me1

MommyD · 14/10/2004 10:34

I ov on cd13 (possibly 14). No symptoms. Felt very sick the last couple of days - but that has happened on cycles where we have not even been trying. Only thing different is lots of v painful twinges on LHS - cyst?
I have two sons ages 1 and 2 and as you can see am a great advocate of small age gaps!

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:38

Yes - definately hang around here until you are ready Lipstick - that goes without saying on the TTC thread does it not
MommyD - my DS's are 6 and a half and nearly 4 - i am an advocate of "too shit scared to have had another closeish age gap! "

MommyD · 14/10/2004 10:42

I just figure that it can't get much harder than this!! Adding another would just be chaos on chaos, which basically adds up to CHAOS!!

LipstickMum · 14/10/2004 10:42

OK, I have already had a sneaky read of the "due in June" thread and been on the FunMum, Formes and ebay for maternity clothes websites

I think I need to go and do something constructive about the house before I go insane see you ladies later waves

Tessiebear · 14/10/2004 10:49

MommyD - i know what you mean - our house is pretty much in constant chaos too - the only difference is that mine go to school! Quick chance to tidy up before they return and make - MORE CHAOS!
I had better go and tidy up now ... (Waves goodbye..)

SHELY · 14/10/2004 11:26

i went to bed at 12:45 and i have been up since 5:30am. it's pitch black out. i didn't even set an alarm, my body just "bing" woke me up lol got my specialist appt. in a few hours. i get nervous and shy, but i hope they take me seriously for a change, and actually "do something" for me. sometimes, i lose all my nerves in front of a doctor, and they treat me like a little girl, even at 29 years old. hope he doesn't intimidate me too much. i've been waiting for this appt. for a month. i know between me and the hubby i'll be doing most of the talking.

And to all you ladies who had af, rear her ugly head, don't woory about it, we'll get rid of that old witch, soon enough!! later gals!

Chuffed · 14/10/2004 11:35

Can I join in. Slightly different scenario here. Have dd 6 1/2 mths old and would like to start trying for #2. Only BF 2x a day now but no AF so can't start charting.
dd conceived by sheer fluke came off pill no AF for 5 months and then happened to fall pregnant. So no idea when I ovulate as I haven't had a no pill cycle for just over 12 years...yikes. (Just turned 30)

Sallie · 14/10/2004 11:36

tessiebear - am also ttc no 3 - best of luck.....

Sexyandhappy · 14/10/2004 11:37

Hi chuffed - welcome... if you look at your cervical discharge you might know if you are ovulating.

I went to the GP this AM to get checked out and she hasn't really helped but wants me to have a blood test to check if I am in deed showing signs of being pre-menopausal... will have the test next week.
