I need to have a smidge of hope that I don't have to wait another 3 weeks before anything exciting happens north of the fanjo gap!

and I mean REALLY convinced you were due on, cramps, pms the lot.

if im only about 4 days gone, is it too early to have cravings? and if so, how come ive just eaten 4 bags of salt and vinegar?
lissie it sounds like good news? hugs your way

LOL Scared, it was after I reached for the fourth custard doughnut on Friday before 9.30 in the morning, that I tested BFP

Haven't had one since though! Which is a shame...

VictorianSqualor · 06/05/2008 17:38

With DS2 I was sure I wasn't pg, I had told dp to get me a test, was a day or two late, then called him up and said dont bother, I'm going to come on I've got period pains etc.
A few days later still not AF so we tested.
BFP.

VictorianSqualor · 06/05/2008 17:40

Holy shit, I just read Lissies posts.
I really hope tis right and stays this time!

stripeywoollenhat · 06/05/2008 18:37

well, i got a bfp on sunday afternoon even though i was convinced that there was no way on earth i could be pregnant, despite the bursting into tears every fifteen minutes or so all day on saturday, the outrageously sore boobs and the exhaustion i'd had since mid-week (i thought it was just terrible pms)... that was on day 11 of an 11 day lp (first response), and i still don't believe it. and am completely freaked out, had a miscarriage in january and am scared shitless it will happen again. i may join the knicker checkers if they'll have me, but not for a few days yet...

Lissie, i have my fingers crossed for you.

OracleInaCoracle · 06/05/2008 18:47

thank you, my landlady is a mw and i told her when i did her reflexology treatment, told about spotting over the weekend and she just said "implantation, just the right time an sounds like a classic example"

thats reassured me a bit. im still not pg though. not yet!

stripeywoollenhat · 06/05/2008 18:57

{whispers}implantation bleeding is surely an excellent sign, though... maybe you will be pregnant on thursday... i really hope it works out for you

OracleInaCoracle · 06/05/2008 18:59

thank you, dh is winding out the cotton wool as we speak. period hasnt arrived today either. if i can make it through tomorrow i will be more optimistic.

downbutnotout · 06/05/2008 18:59

for lissie!

Btw, did you get my CAT - have been away for a while.

OracleInaCoracle · 06/05/2008 19:06

i didnt, at least i dont think so could you try again or fb me?

MissingMyHeels · 06/05/2008 19:07

I was absolutley convinced I was going to come on my period as I didn't exactly plan DD - a very gorgeous surprise! I then did a pg test just to rule it out and got a faint positive, I took the pg test to the doctors I was SO convinced it was wrong!

So hang in there Squack. Fingers crossed for you Lissie and congrats to scared!

PrePG · 06/05/2008 19:20

Congratulations Lissie!!! I hope that this one is a sticky one. My fingers & toes are crossed for you....

Now I am hanging around for a little bit of this good luck to come my way

scared1976 · 07/05/2008 15:43

congrats lissie!

OracleInaCoracle · 07/05/2008 17:14

well, maybe not so much good news after all. had a small (and i do mean tiny) gush of reddish brown blood, and a few cramps, but high up, from just under my ribs. since then nothing. noblood, no pain/backache/cramps.
not holding breath though.

kayzisexpecting · 07/05/2008 17:49

It could be implantation. I hope it nothing.

OracleInaCoracle · 07/05/2008 17:50

spoken to my mw landlady who said that she wouldnt be too worried, sounds like a continuation of the implantation, cramps are too high to be period or mc and more likely to be tension. but i am to rest as much as possible.

kayzisexpecting · 07/05/2008 17:52

Just you make sure you do rest young lady!!

OracleInaCoracle · 07/05/2008 17:53

i am sitting very, very still. same to you!
