Hi,I am still here, 10 days DPO, no symptoms so far AF due 7th July CD37, feeling tempted to test already going to try and hold out until next Friday tho(19DPO)It seems like agggeeessssss .....away, I want a true result, by then if it is a BFP it should be nice and strong and if its a BFN I can get absolutley blottoed at my friends hen weekend next Saturday

lastboxoftampons · 02/07/2008 16:40

oooh, good luck MKG

I can't test until Tuesday or so. I'm on CD25, but think I just ovulated on CD20

Had awful constipation (sorry TMI) a few days ago, but that might not actually be a symptom. Now been having twinges in my stomach but again, I remember twinges from other months. Also have sore breasts, but that's normal for me. ho hum, guess I'll just have to wait until Tuesday

MKG · 02/07/2008 18:43

BFP, BFP, BFP!!

OK so I went to through away the test I took this morning and notice a barely there line, so I read the instructions and it said that a positive result would stay for 48 hours and a negative shouldn't be read after 10 minutes. So I did the other one, and it was another faint line but more readable.

So I went and bought a different brand took one and the stupid thing didn't work, drank some water and did the other one and watched it turn positive. Holy Crap, Holy Crap, Holy Crap!!

MKG - Congratulations!! Great news!

blackrock · 02/07/2008 22:25

Can i join, due any day from tomorrow onwards. I have bought a thermometer and joined ff. have been ttc for 12 months at least. Not feeling any different from usual, but had no symptoms with DS. Have had odd stomach ache.... could this be a symtom?

lastboxoftampons · 02/07/2008 23:35

Congratulations MKG! Woo Hoo!!! our first BFP! Who's next???

Hi Zen and Blackrock!
Blackrock - come find us on the temping buddies thread! And the month I got pregnant I had an awful feeling in my stomach - like I was incredibly hungry and awfully full at the same time. It sort of felt like I had done too many situps. Fingers crossed for you!

roseability · 02/07/2008 23:38

Ooops forgot to say a big congratulations to MKG! Wonderful news

tink08 · 03/07/2008 07:52

yay congrats MKG !!!!!

Playingthewaitinggame · 03/07/2008 09:20

Congratulations MKG!!

I think I'm next! Just did 2 this morning and both clear BFPs . The clear blue came up in about 30 secs and the tesco own brand took about a min, no need to squint on either!!

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:17

hi everyone here
congratulations to the new BFPs! MKG and Playing (hi!) :-o

Hi LBox (waves) I think Im around the same number of DPO as you (am 7 or 8 DPO today) but I want to hang on as long as possible before testing - not sure of how easy it will be.

trying not to monitor symptoms but i've had lower back ache since 4dpo and now its more like pre AF aches. Also my body feels oddly hot (particularly belly/breasts).

Anyone else had "hot body" symptoms?

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:18

"trying not to monitor symptoms"

Clearly bol**cks"

lastboxoftampons · 03/07/2008 10:22

Congrats, Playing that's great news!

Hi Gyo - I won't be able to test with you as I'm pretty sure I'm out already My ovulation date was questionable. I had what looked like a really clear temp shift on CD18, but then two positive OPKs CD18 and CD19 - so FF was saying I didn't O until CD20 or so, which would make me 6dpo today. Unforutnately I've had the faintest spotting today, which is how it started at 8dpo last month - so I think I must be about 8dpo today, which means my likely ov date was probably CD18. Anyway, it still sucks, and I'm no longer waiting to test Good luck everyone!

lastboxoftampons · 03/07/2008 10:23

Oh, and GYo, last night I mentioned to my DH that my breasts felt hot and I've noticed my cheeks have been flushed/hot throughout this LP.

GYo · 03/07/2008 10:29

Hi LBox,
Sorry to here that. Hope you keep positive for next month.

Playingthe9monthwait · 03/07/2008 10:59

Don't know if being hot means anything but I was really hot just over a week ago as well and although not so hot now, still feel warmer than normal. I also have had sore boobs, which is nothing new, but literally since a few dpo which is earlier than normal and recently my nipples have been sore (which is unusual) and they look a bit different. Not sure if that makes any sense, but even Dh agreed last night (before the BFP) that they looked strange. I have also felt a bit different, not sick but slightly floaty, almost as if I have a bit of a bug. Who knows if any of those things are symptoms?

LBOT - remember its not over till AF comes!

GYo · 03/07/2008 12:48

Thanks Playing

TBH, i think that the more thought that goes into it, anything can be a symptom. I realised how much I ignore any pmt symtoms during the LP now. Although feeling very irritable one wk pre AF is a given.

I've been irritable for days but then i've got a horrible cold bug thats made me sneeze constantly for 4 days. No temperature but could be why im hot...

who knows....!

Please send me patience in bucket loads!

I have extremely sore boobs (I do get tenderness pre menstrually but not like this!), I feel nauseous and I have had cramping on and off since Sunday but no sign of bleeding. CD 27 today, so will not crack and test but I am very hopeful

GYo · 03/07/2008 12:58

Hi Rose

Sounds good. Fingers crossed for you.

how long do you plan to wait before testing or will you wait for AF to definately be late?

AbstractMouse · 03/07/2008 14:11

Gah, hope you don't mind me butting in, AF is due on saturday I think, got a faint line on a crappy poundshop test this morning, which I don't even know if it was in the 10 mins as I just put it on the side. Never even had a hint of a line with these tests though.

Do youthink I should just wait, or get a first response or something?
