The 2ww Symptom Spotting continues....

[Bucky2007]

Hey girls as we are about to get thrown out of our thread I have started a new one so we can continue manically looking for EWCM, sore (.)(.)s and orange feet whilst chanting 'in with love, out with BFNs'.

Come on over/in

evening all. was feelin a bit glum at just being cd3, but now am pmsl at cervical pursuit and microscopes that detect how many crisps you've been eating! Gotta put that on my crimbo list!!

no symptoms obviously, but can't stay away, sorry!

you girls crack me up!!

I'd heard about the fern'ing thing before but hadn't quite got round to googling it (beat me to it bucky). Who needs orange feet when you've got a handbag sized microscope?

am off to rummage around and look for the tip of my nose

Right in my previous life I used to be a microbiologist so pretty handy with a microscope but I've never heard that one beofre pmsl.

lol @ excitable getting all shocked at a 9lbs 3ozs babe coming out my cervix and it leaving home, yes thats what you get when you finally get the BFP after 9 months the little darlings got to come out, anyway can't be that bad I'm back for a third! (maybe brain left with cervix along with decent boobs oh and sanity jumped on the departing train too)

I'm away to look at Buckys links

The cheap CBD tests link are not actually cheap...sorry about that .

duh I mean monitor...the cheap CBD monitor link...

BFN for me today so my boobs are weird

Just waiting for AF now

aw, really sorry to hear that SK

Got heavy (.)(.)s today. And lower back pain. It's far too soon to be feeling any symptoms . I wish I was pregnant.

sorry for bfn sk

ok - have now developed a fixation with checking my cp (cervix position). just checked in the loos (yes, I washed my hands with anti-bacterial wash) and couldn't bloody find it! was low and hard two days ago and now it's disappeared. either I'm pg or I'm ovulating again.

will bd tonight just in case.

where is everyone? I'm feeling very emotional...

Wow! Just had a go and I FOUND IT! Have had a few attempts before, but thought my fingers were too short. It really does feel like the end of my nose.

However, now, as well as obssesive boob prodding (for tenderness) nausea monitoring, etc. i also have to perform cervix checking on a regular basis, as i see from the link changes occur about 12 days PO if pg.

When am i going to find time to work!!!???

(and how many times a day can you pop a finger up there without it being abnormal behaviour?)

It's not normal behaviour, I'm sure it's not!!

I don't think I'll need the lipstick microscope as I think I'm pregnant every time I eat a packet of crisps, or look to my left or breathe. I really don't need any help in that department.

Really quite tired today...

dg what's the matter petal, why do you feel sad?

ooh and sorry about BFN Spookykitty . Its not over till TEW arrives though.

i'm ok, felt a bit down earlier my family are driving me nuts. have vented on a thread on 'am i being unreasonable'...this is no place for such stories. however, feeling a bit more positive at the mo, have already got cramps but then I had cramps very early on last cycle and we all know how that ended.

I hadn't found the am i being unreasonable thread yet - thanks dg

Sorry you're having such a tough time. We think you're great...

digitalgirl you know you can tell us anything. As far as I am aware there are no 'Symptoms Police' that will arrest you if you publish anything off topic. And I should know as I ramble constantly and have not yet been arrested . Of course we think your fab...I think its time for a chant "In with calm and out with love, in with calm and out with crappy family that pee you off" . BTW really intrigued about your sister's boyfriend's "very loud telephone conversations that pee of the neighbours", (on the Oct BFP thread sorry cross posting) How unusual, I mean, a sequence of loud conversations relating to a person and/or topic i could understand, but regular random loud conversations that the neighbours complain about .

OK now that I have had my increasingly common stickybeak moment, I must inform about my very weird occurence...I have EWCM, v. stretchy (I did the test ) but its only CD9!!! I am very unconvinced by the whole CM analysis. Last month EWCM arrived on CD12...If my LP is 14 days and AF arrives on CD32 I should be ov on CD17/18? There is NO way I could have a 22 day LP. Better get that Donna.

I'm surrounded by cervix chasers. I swear I'll have nightmares.

What do they look like? Are they scary??

Speaking of which - I played a bit of Cervical Pursuit myself last night... Definitely felt like the tip of my nose and seems to tie in with my temps as was low down (well - except I have nothing to compare it to so maybe not).

DG how are you feeling this evening?

Am thinking I may be in the 2ww now and just to kick things off I have very sore nips (but I'm guessing thats just ov pains so don't really count)

They look like noses apparently. Actually I have know idea what a cervix looks like, but I'm sure tonight I will dream of giant nose like creatures popping out from behind a lampost shouting 'I'm here' then popping out from behind a bus shelter shouting 'I'm over here now' etc

Sympton spotting, today I have had odd feelings in my tum but low down. Then I had a crunchie and they stopped, so I guess they were just choccy cravings

I think I will have to have a go at finding my cervix now as well as I'm feeling left out. Apparently if you have had a baby it's always a bit open about 1cm dilated should help the bloody sperm swim up there then.

Well I did it text book this month, Thurs had ov pains, EWCM, Friday on CBD opks, sex every 2 days as required and still BFN. The two DCs I have got are the results of a once that month quickies (long story don't think thats all we do it) maybe thats where we are going wrong, maybe we will have one BD when I don't think I'm ovulating. When you know you can get pregnant its so frustrating when you can't.

DG - I'm with you on family I could have a whole AIBU topic to myself. Mine have been utter rubbish at support during the mc, my Mum hasn't seen her GC since beginning of August, MIL since July. We won't visit them as it's an hours drive and the DDs go mad then it's really stressful carting them around peoples houses that are v unchild friendly so DP and I spend the entire time telling them No and Don't touch. families eh pity you can't take them back and ask for an exchange? (SK is serious)

feeling better this evening thanks ladies!

bucky this is what was annoying me, along with various other dysfunctionalities. But hey ho! You can't sell 'em on eBay. BTW, in all my ewcm research it says it can turn up five days before you ov...but you're body can also have more than one attempt at ovulation, hence showing all the signs.

so I'm gearing up for another bd'ing tonight as the ubiquitous ewcm and disappearing cervix could mean my body's going for a second attempt. will still pretend that I actually ov'ed on the weekend though, and test on the 13th.

feeling bloody tired tho. this week seems to be dragging on forever, must be because i'm on a countdown!

sweet dreams everyone - especially you clairePO

Glad to hear you were feeling a little better in the evening DG..

Well, my temperature has stayed up and fertilityfriend.com has put that I ovulated on Monday. Woohoo! Feels like I've actually acheived something this month (must be like when you get a on the opk!) so at least we've given it our best shot this month (bd every other day). Just have to sit back and wait!!!!

Picknmix - I used Fertilityfriend too - worked for me - hope it works for you too!!
