Period's due 13th/14th July.
Thing is, with DS, around what must've been the time of implantation, I got a kind of cystitis feeling in my bifk, rather than my urethra, that lasted for days, and i just noticed it this morning, again.
we tried last month, and nothing happened, and i didn't get this feeling
as for metallic taste....i just had root canal this am, so all i can taste is essence of dentist.
Anyway.....will keep y'all posted...will try and resist testing until the 11th/12th.

Hi good luck ! |I guess I'm on the 2ww too period due 15th July. Haven't joined other TTC threads as I don't understand the acronyms! Erm perhaps this is natural selection telling me I'm too thick to reproduce What on earth do AF BD'ing and BFP stand for?

Good luck too - we should keep each other informed.
AF is aunt flo, or period, BD is baby dancing, BFP is big fat positive (as in test result).

Can I join you 2 in this agonising wait please? Im due AF on 14th (thats if its a 30 day cycle - which seems to be about average for me but not sure!). I am imagining I feel slightly sick - but have felt like this for the last 2 months at about this time! This is our 3rd cycle of ttc - baby 3 for both of us but the 1st together (and he had vasectomy reversed almost 3 months ago - so not sure if its all working!)
Fingers crossed its our turn girls xx

Yarnie · 03/07/2008 20:49

Hi girls!

Based on previous cycles I'm due on 16 July, but I haven't had any clear indication that I have ovulated yet, so I may be getting ahead of myself by joining a 2ww thread. Oh well - we'll see, I guess

Anybody else got any symptoms yet?!

eth37 · 03/07/2008 21:12

Hi all, I hope you don't mind if I crash as well? AF due 11 July. I have got quite a strong 'pulling' sensation, not like pre-menstrual cramps, i can't really describe it. I might go to the Dr as I have never had it before - has anyone else encountered this before? It is twinging, rather than an ache, iyswim. When is anyone else testing? I think I am getting ahead of myself, as we weren't particularly 'trying' this month, but did manage on 2 occasions when timing should have been right, although not 100% sure! Am v new to this!

eth37 · 03/07/2008 21:13

should say - the weird sensation is really low down, like where you would get pre-menstrual/period pain, but definitely not the same sensation. advice welcome!

sammysam · 03/07/2008 21:38

Hi-can i come join as well, starting to ttc dc2, dd is 2 in a couple of weeks. AF is due around the 12th. I'm too chicken to symptom spot as am a stupid supersticious idiot and think it will be bad if i do but i have had more cm than normal. We aren't trying really really hard as dp doesn't like the idea of taking the romance out of it......at the moment anyway!
I've had the cystitis thing as well and looking back think ihad it with dd maybe a coincidence?
Fingers crossed everyone x x x

yeah....it was a cross between cystitis and thrush, almost, like the vaginal walls were irritated and inflamed a bit
it had gone by the time i tested, thankfully, as it was driving me up the wall

nauseous · 03/07/2008 21:50

hello ladies, I want to join you on the 2ww! This is our first cycle of trying since we had a missed miscarriage 3 months ago. Trying not to think ... could I be pregnant? or from now till 14th July will be v difficult...!

Sorry I can't help you with the pelvic pain. Maybe your GP will be able to shed some light on it?

Nope - no symptoms over here. Watch this space.

I already can't wait to start testing!! Luckily I have none in the house or I'd be bankrupting myself.

OK, back to bawling over 'House'

Good luck everyone,
Nx

Hi,
I'm quite new on this board, TTC #2, and AF due on 13th July (i think, based on last month, but only came off pill 2 months ago so cycle might be erratic).
I got the cystitis type feeling too, a couple of days ago! It lasted an hour or so?I don't remember noticing anything like that but he was conceived accidentally (stomach bug/pill failing) so I wouldn't have paid any attention.
No other symptoms though..

sammysam · 03/07/2008 22:32

Sorry to hear that nauseous. The idea of a miscarriage terrifies me. This business is nasty really-1st the waiting/wandering/worrying about am i/aren't i, then when you actually get pregnant you still have that! I was lucky last time as dd wasn't planned and i didn't know for 8-9weeks so i had less of the worry.
I really can't let myself do the testing-it would make me go crazy plus dp would kill me as they are so expensive he'd definately say just wait and see......god that's gonna be hard............
Good luck ladies x x x

eth37 · 04/07/2008 08:14

Morning everyone! Hope everyone's ok? I am driving myself insane symptom watching! I think I may have a UTI, as weird low down cramps. Also have gurgly tummy and feel like I need to wee all the time so am thinking it's probably cystitis/UTI rather than anything more exciting Hope everyone else is OK - it's Friday!!

pipsy76 · 04/07/2008 14:32

Hi all, eth37 I think I know what you mean about a pulling sensation I've notcied something similar today, also like you we 've only managed it twice due to DH's work so I think I might be being overly optimistic by posting on here!Hope the rest of you are well keep spotting!

sammysam · 05/07/2008 22:30

I don't like this waiting business-it really is a very unfair design
More 'symptoms' but prob all in my head so maybe they should just stay there so i don't feel quite so silly when i get my AF

terrier141 · 06/07/2008 11:18

Hi girls - Im still imagining feeling sick - well actually i think it might be real cos i couldnt face a cup of tea or anything to eat until 12.30 yesterday (so not like me!). Also we went out for a meal in the evening and i couldnt face alcohol or finish my meal! Also to dh's annoyance i keep falling asleep really early - its driving him nuts! Dont think Im pg though as no other symptoms and apparently its far too early to be feeling sick?? x

citybranch · 06/07/2008 19:36

Hi, how is everyone? any more symptoms? I had leaky boobs yesterday, don't know if that's a symptom! It has stopped now, but boobs are sore. I've had mild cramps for about 3 days, and today a cystitis feeling again. AF due on 13th...still forever away! All my symptoms could be completely unrelated to pregnancy!
I got buy one get one free FRs all ready to test!

eth37 · 06/07/2008 19:49

Hi everyone! Any new symptoms? I am thinking the cystitis-like feelings and 'pulling' in abdomen are actually to do with cystitis or a UTI rather than anything else So I think I am probably 'out' for this month... We'll see later on I guess, but felt v tired and actually a bit ill all weekend, as though I do actually have a UTI. Just been drinking lots of water to try and flush it through. Annoying as I was actually starting to think I was pg... Boo! How is everyone else? I am loving the tennis!

babyhollie · 06/07/2008 22:25

oh no i have had this cystitas feeling and when go for a wee pulls on you. Last week I just wanted to sit on the toilet for one day and then it cleared. I have had terrible back pains as well. I was due on the 5th July but as i speak now i have tested not pregant. I do however think i did not ovulate until about day 22 so would it take longer to show up than if i had ovulated 14 ... thanks i used clear blue digital last night

babytime · 06/07/2008 22:46

Hello girls

Hope you dont mind me joining in here. I have started so many threads in the last week about thinking i'm pregnant.

I am driving myself insane and cant face seeing a BFN, I am due on this Thursday. I have a horrible taste in my mouth which has actually got worse this evening. Not sure if it is metallic but def horrible.

I feel a bit queasy and my nipples are tingling on and off, they keep going hard.

Anyway just need to say it one more time

Hi eth37 - we've chatted already today or more like I've bored you

babytime · 06/07/2008 22:51

Oops forgot to mention I am due AF 10th July and ttc dc3. We have just decided to start trying for a third child so not actively trying if that makes sense, but we did the deed twice without thinking dates this month and I am just hoping one of those little swimmers caught onto my egg - please!

cece · 06/07/2008 22:53

Me too, due about the 12th I think. Think I OV last Sunday or Monday...

eth37 · 06/07/2008 23:02

babytime nice to see you on here as well - of course you've not bored me, i feel like i have been jabbering on about my various symptoms to everyone on here! Your symptoms sound really promising - good luck and babydust to you, keep me posted how you get on!!
I have got that sunday night feeling... Now I just feel silly for convincing myself I was pg when all it prob was was cystitis....

Tapster · 07/07/2008 08:12

I'm due on the 11th. Got terrible nausea yesterday and had thought no way was I pregnant this month, so drank on my birthday and was on hols last week so had a bit to drink, though less than usual. Took a first response test this morning convinced waste of money but I need to change drugs I take if I am pregnant. It is positive . However, I'm in my late 30s so v worried about miscarriage. I got an early positive with DD too. I'm still BFing and was about to stop to improve my ttc chances.

I thought I had more ovarian cysts due to pain I was getting.

Good luck to you all - hope to see you on a pregnancy board soon.

terrier141 · 07/07/2008 08:20

Congrats tapster - fab news - hope your good luck rubs off on us! Good luck with the pregnancy xx
