OracleInaCoracle · 03/08/2008 10:13

thank you. did you test?

OP posts:
Heebychick · 03/08/2008 12:23

Yes i did with a CB digital but BFN.

Not sure what to think, no AF and still have strong symptoms.

Will wait till Friday as Dr says she'll do blood tests if nothing changed by then.

OracleInaCoracle · 03/08/2008 12:29

pants. think you def need a blood test. think it was disenchanted who didnt get her bfp til 6-7w.

i think you are right, i have a sneeky suspiscion tho that i might be not PG anymore, even if i was to start with. I'm sure my symptoms are lessening (although been very busy today to notice) but still feel yuk.

Think i got a faint line earlier but TBH i could of imagined it, it was very faint and i read it after 10 mins not the 2 as instructed.

Straws ... clutching ... no not me surely!

Hmm.

OracleInaCoracle · 03/08/2008 17:32

oh sweetheart, this ttc stuff is crap and sends us all a bit loopy. there is still hope though.

OP posts:
Heebychick · 03/08/2008 17:45

It is so tough, i really don't know what to think. DH and i talked this morning and have almost decided that if we are not this month (and it looks that way) then we will put it on hold for a few months whilst i get back on track with cycles etc.

My business is very busy in the summer and really don't want to be having a bub in the middle of the busy season.

I'm ok about it really, i will still see Dr on Friday if no change as i still feel terrible so if i'm not PG then there must be something going on to make me feel so crappy! (sorry)

How are you feeling now?
xx

OracleInaCoracle · 03/08/2008 17:49

bit down tbh. i didnt hold much hope tbh and we go back to see cons this month so will push for clomid.

OP posts:
Heebychick · 03/08/2008 17:56

I'm sorry you feel down, it's so hard to think of anything else when you are ttc isn't it.

When do you see the Cons?

I feel a bit better knowing the Dr is going to do some tests so at least we are being listened to i guess.

Chin up honey, if it helps i'm working tonight! that's pretty crappy huh!

OP posts:
Heebychick · 04/08/2008 15:42

Hi guys, i have posted on another thread to say that my symptoms are strong again today (or maybe i'm noticing them more?) feel quite confused and trying to to obsess about it.

annie - lots of love and hugs to you

lissie how are you feeling today?

OracleInaCoracle · 04/08/2008 18:01

been a bit crap tbh. period is stupidly painful, have been in bed most of the day and crying.

you need to see your gp really asap

OP posts:
EmmaBlemma · 04/08/2008 18:24

Hi everyone,

Sorry to hear you think a/f is coming annie thats so disappointing...

heeby it's so frustrating when you get mixed signals. I've been very guilty of obsessing about symptoms myself... You must be 19dpo now what is going on????? That would drive me crazy!! How about another test but check after 3 mins???

Sorry about a/f lissie Are you doing ok??

I'm just waiting for fertile phase, hopefully happen this wkd, then the excruciating wait... Does it get any easier???

RipMacWinkle · 04/08/2008 18:25

Oh lissie - that's rubbish. So, so rubbish.

Nothing good to report here eihter. Not due on till Friday but today had a lot of old blood and then fresh stuff. Feeling very AF crampy too. Only CD24 but my cycles have been so messed up by the mc in March that I don't know if i'm coming or going.

Felt pretty low today after that and not holding out much hope.

OracleInaCoracle · 04/08/2008 18:34

rip, it does take a long time to recover. im still not over my last proper one which was in nov.

emma, i think that avoiding early testing helps, but most months i veer between psychotically obsessed and just fed up!

OP posts:
WorzselMummage · 04/08/2008 19:02

Lissie i'm so sorry that she got you and that she's giving you pain i've not had a chance to check in really, i've been feeling really rough.

I'm sure it will be your turn soon.

Annie, any news ?

emma i am going crazy! it's a nightmare, i have a Dr appt on Fri and have another CB Digi test left so will do that Thurs (Leave it till the last min) then will see what Dr says.

To be honest i am now going down the road that i am not pregnant but more concerned as to why i feel so awful, very nauseous all day today and very tired, also i have been having a mild kind of 'tightening' in my tummy, not a cramp and not painful just what i would of said was a braxton hicks if i was heavily pregnant.... weird.

Your right it is obsessing and i have just about had enough now, feel very fed up and have up and down moments.

lissie my heart goes out to you, she kept you waiting and now she is giving you a really hard time. Are you having to work this week?

hi all. can i rejoin?? DH was threatened with redundancy a few weeks ago so we put off trying for another one! however on Thursday he got offered the job of his dreams which he starts on the 18th Aug

Anyway, I came off my depo at hte end of April. No AF since. Testing every now and again in case I get caught before AFs start again!

Lissie sorry about AF. Next month will be your month I just know!

GL to all!!
