Yes, its that time of the month, save your sanity (and the cash) by waiting as long as possible.

One thing keeping me strong... DH is 40 in just over a week. If (if, if) I'm pg, how long can I keep it secret for? The later I test, the more likely I am to be able to give him the news as a pressie (if it is the news, of course, no getting carried away now...). I am hopeless at secrets, but he's away half of next week, so if I don't test for a few days (and if my period doesn't arrive) I might just make it!

Well i still have no sign of AF, loads of CM (and i mean loads), still feeling sickly and bloated.

What is going on have ordered some ebay cheapies, which should come tomorrow.

sureitsno3 · 24/04/2008 22:59

Bloating is worse in the evening, what ever that means.

CaptainKarvol · 24/04/2008 23:08

sureitsno3, I feel bloated in the evenings too... Have been following your threads (lurk lurk). Have you tried a digital test yet?

sureitsno3 · 24/04/2008 23:11

Yes i did one, it came up not pregnant but i stupidly didn't read the instructions properly and didn't dip it for long enough

I have only had faint pos anyway though (see profile), and pretty sure that if i am pg it happened on cd 18 or 20 so wouldn't show this early properly, with my ds i ov on day 18 and got a neg on day AF was due, didn't get a pos until 4 days late, so who knows.

CaptainKarvol · 26/04/2008 08:16

oh well, that's me for another month. But at least I haven't wasted my (potential) children's inheritance on pregnancy tests

OracleInaCoracle · 26/04/2008 19:22

oh, im sorry captain. buy yourself a bottle of wine with that tenner... but i know its no consolation...

have posted this i will paste here

i had a thread a few days back pretty much saying that i think that i am pg but too early to test and been having a funny month (tmi but had lots of cm? i think thats what it is? around the time of slip up! )

any way stil no period and i have had neg tests?
i have no idea when my period ended!? im soooo crap at keeping track!
i have a story book 28 days so think i am testing to early damn these early detection tests

i really dont think that my af will turn up.

my boobs have really started hurting today its the stabbing dull ache pain that i only get when pg

i have another test which i could try again in morn but am i best to wait a few days?

ffs

loads of cm boobs getting that stabbing horrible pain tired etc

OracleInaCoracle · 26/04/2008 21:34

wait as long as you can. if you are not sure of your dates then wait a week or so. if you are pg then waiting a few days isnt going to hurt!

OP posts:
YouNeverKnow · 26/04/2008 21:38

youre right i know you are but i want to know now!! lol

OracleInaCoracle · 26/04/2008 21:41

i know, but the longer you wait the more likely you are to get a proper bfp.

OP posts:
YouNeverKnow · 26/04/2008 21:45

gggrrrrrrrrrr lol

cb etc must make a fortune!

im sooo sure that i am but the -tests are bugging me.

what other signs are there?

does the increased cm mean anything? i have had 2dds but cant remember whats what

OracleInaCoracle · 26/04/2008 21:49

the signs do sound promising, but a bfp is the only definate sign. the problem is that a lot of the symptoms of pg are the same as your period, and thats what drives ttcers mad!

OP posts:
YouNeverKnow · 26/04/2008 21:55

yes i imagine so

it may sound odd but i have no feeling whatsoever that i will have my period does that make sense? its like i will need to buy more tampax but i have not bothered as my instinct is so strong. i will be gutted and im not even trying well not properly-we were going to wait a bit

OracleInaCoracle · 26/04/2008 21:57

this all sounds good. shall cross everything for you. how many dc's do you have now?

OP posts:
YouNeverKnow · 26/04/2008 21:59

trying not to get hopes up. i'll feel like such a idiot if im not!

well the reason we are waiting is dd2 is only 7 and half months! dd1 is two and half
