Just popping in to say i am still thinking about all of you (and reading your posts) to make sure you are all ok!! Good luck for this cycle to all of you TessieXXX

Sallie · 09/11/2004 11:47

thanks tessie - how is your pg going? Remind me when you started to feel pg with this one, when you tested etc etc . Am becoming obsessive!!!

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 11:58

Thats ok Sallie - i was just the same - everyone who graduate i would practically give a questionaire to!!
I am in my 7th week -feeling really, really sick and nauseous ALL day (it wakes me at 4 in the morning sometimes!)
When i was waiting to test i looked for all kinds of symptoms but to be honest i didnt feel any different until about 5 1/2 weeks. Kept imagining my boobs were sore but tbh they havnt been sore yet! In fact the first couple of weeks after my BFP i felt so full of energy! I still dont feel to bad tiredness wise but the sickness is sooo draining. Hope it happens for you soon sallie

Sallie · 09/11/2004 12:09

Tessie - what was your cycle like and did you bd every day up to, during and after ov?

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 12:12

Sallie - got EWCM on day 22. (at this point we hadnt BDed for a week because i pressumed i had already oved) Bded once on CD23.... must have OVed at some point around then or just after. So in answer to your question we only BDed once just before OV i pressume

RudyDudy · 09/11/2004 12:15

Thanks for the info about the persona sticks Sallie - I had no idea you could check for lines on them. That's saved me some money and given me something to do next month!

Have you managed to resist your second FR test???

Sallie · 09/11/2004 12:22

thanks Tessie - when did you test then? No, I haven't used my second FR test yet but will probably have succumbed by the end of the day...

runtus · 09/11/2004 12:27

Hello all, nice to see some old faces today.....good to see everyone is well.

Well done S/heart!!! Thats even more than you hoped for wasn't it! I have no idea how you managed it 'in your condition' but well done girl, you should be very proud indeed. Now have a cake on me......

Nothing new to report here, just waiting for af to arrive to get on the pills......so I can get fat and be really ratty due to the hormones!

Sallie · 09/11/2004 12:57

I have just done my second FR test and got a BFN
I guess its not meant to be this month although perhaps I am testing too early? Ov last Mon/Tues so am around 7/8 dpo. What do you all think? This is driving me crazy

Twiga · 09/11/2004 12:58

Fantastic news Sweetheart - well done !

Welcome to the thread Pixie, hope you have a short ttc this time around ++++++*+++++

Hi Tessiebear, nice to see you, glad all is well

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 13:02

Sallie - i got a BFN with First response 10 days PO. BFP 14 days with clearblue - that is 14 days after i BDed the once

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 13:03

Sallie - i have never got an early BFP eith FR

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 13:05

Thanks Twiga - am spending all my time feeling sick and moaning - being back here has reminded me just ho stressful ttc can be, but in a different way - hope you are all joining me in the pucking gang soon. Good luck with pills Runtus!

Sallie · 09/11/2004 13:09

Thanks Tessiebear - I know its probably too early to test, but am so miserable at work, I can't stop thinking about it all. Anyway, I think I will now leave it until after the weekend (unless af arrives before). As someone on here said - best not to buy the tests in the first place then there is less temptation! Sweetheart - great news about your ww success.
Tessie hope the sickness stops soon and that you can get on with enjoying your pg. Is this your second pg?

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 13:12

3rd Sallie Have 2 DS's of 6 and 4

sweetheart · 09/11/2004 13:13

Runtus - & everyone else,

thanks. Yes that was more than I neededto loose so I can afford to put on half a pound with the cream cake I've just brought to accompany my afternoon cuppa!!!!!

When is your af due???? When do you think you'll be able to start your pills???

Sallie · 09/11/2004 13:15

Tessie - are you planning to find out the sex of your 3rd? Interesting that you didn't get a bfp with FR tests - anyone else have a similar experience? Maybe they are not as sensitive as they claim to be?!!!

Tessiebear · 09/11/2004 13:21

Sallie - dont want to find out sex - did with DS2 and wished i hadnt! - more exciting keeping it for the birth!

mariella · 09/11/2004 15:04

hi everyone!

I am gong NUTS wanting to test. I have been feeling faintly nauseous today, I never feel nauseous, I never even get morning sickness, so I don't know what it means but it is driving me up the wall not knowing if i am pg or not. on cd25 of probably a 30 day cycle and no idea when i ov, because my opks from days 10 - 15 were always negative. when can I test? not until saturday at the earliest really, right? (no frustrated emoticon so angry will have to do!)

Sallie · 09/11/2004 15:14

Mariella - know exactly how you feel. Am on cd27 and think I ov on cd19/20 so will have to wait until after the weekend to test (again ). I keep imaging symptoms of af approaching so who knows. Have had a few niggles in my tummy today but more like af coming rather than pg symptoms, I think. Best of luck....

runtus · 09/11/2004 16:11

Not sure when af is due to be honest, on cd32 today but as my cycle is so odd I could come at anytime. I did a quick HPT on Monday am to make sure I wasn't pg by sheer luck before I went to the dr's and got a bfn (the oddest test I have ever done cos I was more excited about going to get my pills!). Hopefully it will arrive this week sometime and then I can start my pills.

I'll keep you all posted!

I want a big cake!
