Hi all,

Minxi - Thought I'd do what you said and start a new thread for 2008 (even though we have got a few days to go). Sorry to hear about AF but pleased your staying positive definately get reflexology going its worked wonders for me

Hope you have all had a lovely christmas

Well I am scared to type this (let alone say it out load) after last time but I got a BFP this morning!!! I am so scared and happy all rolled into one because of MC in October I so hope this one holds on.

But doesn't it take a little bit longer for some people's HCG to build up? So your injected stuff could have worn off, but then your own might be slower at building up??

RahRah1 · 20/01/2008 12:00

Ready - Crossed posted

You won't look stupid... I think I did testing with a HCG injection!!! LOL

Just test, put yourself out of your misery!

You might be the one to send Seaside into labour!

Hi Seaside! Hope all goes well

RahRah1 · 20/01/2008 12:02

I have heavy symptoms, so either they are pregnancy and would be able to detect HCG levels or pre-menstrual... Defo the latter as don't have a BFP!

Ready · 20/01/2008 12:11

Hope everything goes well for you - so excited for you.
I can't test, dh won't let me. Tut. I just said to him "Rah thinks I should test" - he just smiled and said "nope". Grrr.

RahRah1 · 20/01/2008 13:02

tell him RAH knows best!

freddiesyummymummy · 20/01/2008 13:35

Hello all

We had a great holiday

Temp was 97.7 this morning. I forgot the thermometer on holiday but my temp is up today from the usual 97.3 and I was predicted to OV on Wednesday. Am now CD 19 and waiting.

Good luck all of you - I have everything crossed!

Ready go and test - my hubby was the same the first time round, so I just tested with a first response 2 days before AF was due - got a +ve then then had to wait test again when he said and told him! Mind you that was a hard two days....

Ready · 20/01/2008 13:35

Ok. I have officially cracked up. Pee-ed in a plastic pot, left it on the side, badgered dh about testing. He finally relented and said "ok, we'll test, because you won't relax will you?" and I wimped out and told him to tip it away! It's just that a little while ago I had a slightly longer than the norm cycle, and I tested and got a BFN and felt terrible, and stupid. So don't want to do that again. Sigh.

Ready · 20/01/2008 13:38

Oh , Freddiesyummymummy, I forgot you were on holiday - I thought we had lost you

Ready · 20/01/2008 15:28

Aaaaaaaaaaarrggggghhhhh.

mummy2olivia · 20/01/2008 16:03

Ready- do you feel like AF is coming???? Daft ? but need to ask!! I have everything crossed!!! xxxxxxxxxxx

RahRah1 · 20/01/2008 16:03

Feddies MY - Welcome back - glad you had a good holiday

Ready your not cracking up, just protecting your feelings. When its right for you, you'll test. No pressure. It is hard to relax your DH is right. Big Hugs XXX

Ready · 20/01/2008 17:10

I do feel like my period is coming, I have done for 3 days now. And it is getting on my nerves. I just want to stop the tortue. My brain is telling me I ovulated later and I am having an odd long cycle, but my heart is hoping differently

rainbowdays · 20/01/2008 17:29

Ready you are being sensible. With Christmas and the move etc you could well have ov'd later this month, stress does do things like that. Your dh is right, you will know by Wedneday anyway, either prementral feelings continue and you will clearly be pg or af will arrive (crossing fingers that is not what will happen). So well done on getting wee thrown away, you would only have tortured yourself more with the "but it was not first morning wee" excuse anyway. Now having said all that I never had that much stamina, hence why I bought a bulk order of cheap htp's! (want me to send them to you ? last time I did that for someone they found out they were pg before the load arrived!!!!!)

Rah - you are testing too soon - naughty naughty, you will not have your own levels high enough yet, I have not given up on you yet, I am thinking implantation dip for your temp today, and remaining positive for you until proven otherwise...

Minxi - you too it is looking good so far, hope this is it.

minxi · 20/01/2008 18:10

Ready well done you on not testing....!! I am hoping that this is it for you and you are on your way to number 1
Rah like rainbow said it could be implantation temp dip....pmt symptoms are still a sign of pg symps...

I however, am not looking likely this month have seen another sliver (is that right?) of coloured cm which to me is sure to be a sign...so I shall be back at the top in the next day or so. Hey ho.

How is everyone else ?

freddiesyummymummy · 20/01/2008 19:46

Why oh why oh why are the symptoms of PG EXACTLY the same as an impending AF????
With DS1 I had bleeding at CD32 (spotting in CM) and thought it was a very early miscarriage (already tested positive at CD 26 & 28 with a first response)- it turned out to be implantation bleeding. Thinking of you!

Don't think my tpr was accurate today. Woke up, staggered to toilet (still drunk), brushed my teeth then flopped back into bed and took my tpr. My tongue was still cold from rinsing my mouth!

Rah, Ready and Minxi - still hoping for you

FurtivelyPosting · 20/01/2008 21:14

Ready you're not being daft at all - it's totally understandable that you want to protect yourself and not have to deal with any disappointment. I am keeping absolutely everything crossed for you. Early pregnancy symptoms can be just like PMS. With my last pregnancy, I had spotting and cramping right from the beginning until I was about 10 weeks gone. It felt exactly like when AF is kicking off - I was convinced that I was going to lose the pregnancy. I started reading up on Mumsnet and realised that this happens quite a lot and is quite normal.

I think that all of the signs are positive for you right now. Your temperature is looking particularly good; as you say, it has always dropped by now. I admire your strength to hold back on testing (I couldn't stop myself!) and I absolutely hope and wish that you get a lovely BFP on wednesday.

Rah and Minxi - don't give up; AF isn't here yet. I'm keeping everything crossed for you two as well. Here's hoping that this is the beginning of a run of BFPs!

honeyapple · 20/01/2008 22:22

Just popping in to wish good luck to Ready, Rah and Minxi- we are all getting v excited on the TTC grads thread. And of course good luck to everyone else on here (from a former temp buddy).

rattling · 21/01/2008 09:59

Thankfully I still have no work to do at the moment - that should change quite soon - as I have so much to catch up with here. I am waiting most impatiently for this morning's update.

Wouldn't it be amazing if there were 3 BFP's imminent.

Better stop typing so I can check for new messages.

RahRah1 · 21/01/2008 10:28

Hi all, I'm due on today... So will see what happens. But temp has risen back to 36.6 and still have cramps.. so might be tomorrow I come on... I normally come on at about 5-6am in the morning... god knows why... maybe its just to bug me some more!!!

Any news on Minxi and Ready - come on girlies... updates please!!!!

I have phoned the hospital for my ovulation results and all the nurses are too busy... so not sure when I will find out!

minxi · 21/01/2008 10:44

AF arrived this morning oh well it was promising with the peak on the monitor but not meant to be - maybe it will never be meant to be.

sounds promising Rah

Hope its good news for Ready

FurtivelyPosting · 21/01/2008 10:51

Oh, Minxi - I'm so sorry. (((hug)))

fettleandbabyfettle · 21/01/2008 10:53
