Im now on CD44 and feeling a bit rubbish after my BFN on Saturday, just hoping I tested too early! My boobs have doubled in size and are veiny and sore and have only had one period longer than this one so im feeling optimistic but dont want to get my hope up too much. Am going to buy another test for this Sunday because we are going on holiday on Monday so hoping to get a BFP to go with otherwise I will wait another week and test again if no AF. Its so frustrationg tho!

Thanks Wishing for your post, im really trying not to obsess!

How are things with you? x

Wishing · 07/10/2008 13:54

crossed post with you on another thread Little miss but will update here as well in case! not posted for a while!

I can imagine how you feel, i was same last month - but hang in there! no af at least!

im having a rubbish time - should be upping bding but dh is that way out and it has resulted in a huge row, cant see it being sorted in time to get enough bding in so reckon im crossing another month off the list!

How do you feel?? ive had a few sptoms this month and suddenly appear to be full of wind! glad dh is at work or i would have just blown him of the couch!! heehee!

xxxxx

Ilovebeingamummy · 24/10/2008 21:03

bfn for me today too (let myself test ) which was a bit daft. Will try to leave it til wed now.... trying not to symptom spot as terrified of another cp/mc this month.

Still hoping though! Glad we're still in it together! x

im still in love being a mummy - im hanging on for af with yet more bfp - and to top it all off a firend who had same cycle as me and was trying this month has got a bfp !! im so pleased for her but gutted too!

i thought af was coming this morning, got some brown gun but nothing else?? its driving me nuts, i have sore boons too and im a bit tierd, very emotional and loads of cm!?!?!?!

i dont wat to keep having to go through all this

oh and constipation again! really severe though

xxxxx

Ilovebeingamummy · 25/10/2008 21:50

No af for me yet...i guess we're both still in so far then!

I am going nuts too - so scared of going through last month again - how do people go through this every cycle for years without going mad?

I am exhausted, sore boobs, bloated, lots cm, cramps and lower backache. So much for not symptom spotting eh??

The waiting is killing me but the thought of being pregnant and worrying about another mc is terrifying me too.

what a Mare!

fingers crossed for you...i think its fin and normal to be of your friend....I would be...

Hello all - can I join too please? I think i'm going mad - on CD31 of a normal 30 day cycle. 5th Cycle of TTC and when I came off the pill I had one short cycle of 27 days then a long one of 38. Last 2 have been 30 days exactly.

I've got sore boobs, feeling quite emotional (but not raging anger like I sometimes get with PMT). Have had strange scratchy feelings in my tummy, feels a bit like having a bladder infection but in my womb instead of my bladder. That's been going on for about a week now.

I was absolutely convinced I was pregnant, and have been using boots own tests every two days, but hav been coming back negative. This morning I thought sod it, splash out on the expensive tests, and I got a clearblue digital which says i can test up to 4 days before my period is due. Tested this morning (using 2nd urine, but hadn't had anything to drink between getting up and testing). Bl**dy negative!

I am so frustrated, don't know what to think. What are the chances? It seems like everyone on here has just got AF really late. DH thinks i'm mad (we didn't manage a lot of BD this month, but crucially did BD on CD12, right on the money for ovulation around CD13ish).

Am I mad? When do I go to the doctors to find out what's wrong? And can someone fast forward time please so its the weekend and I can test again?

Sorry for the rant, and glad that others have been / are going through similar, it's nice to not be alone.

Michaela

Wishing · 29/10/2008 19:17

hello michaela! hang in there ist hard though i know! any news, im still waiting - no af but not tested since moday, trying to se the week out, its not doing me any good other wise!!

Ilovebeingamummy · 29/10/2008 22:33

Hi all

Glad we're all going potty together!
Welcome Michaela - you are definitely not alone! Have you got children already?

I spent the whole morning depressed as noticed cm had tiniest tiniest pink tinge. Now hoping it is not af coming as still got sickness tingly boobs. However bfn this morning (CD33) Got my tiny faint positve CD35 last month (CP) so maybe too early.

I am officially SICK of ttc (and this is only cycle no.2) i just want to get on with growing a baby, not trying to make one...the thought of another month trying to work out days and seduce dh is making me nauseous....
Sorry WHINGE over!! xx

OP posts:
MichaelaS · 30/10/2008 09:33

oh, you sound fed up Ilovebeingamummy, poor you. I don't have any children yet, this will be the first one. I do have hamster babies though - I breed them - and we currently have 2 VERY cute babies which are a week and a half old.

Fingers crossed wishing

Well, I did another test this morning, and it was negative again. It was the other clearblue digital in the pack of 2. I am now 3 days overdue for AF, but still 6 days early when compared to that one strange long cycle I had before.

I have got PG symptoms - boobs really aching with a sort of stabbing pain like growning pains. Still have light cramps and a strange full feeling in my womb. Very tired. Getting a bit queasy occasionally too. All this and a negative test.

I have been reading the internet and scaring myself - apparently ectopic pregnancies can have low HCG levels, and apparently it's possible to have a phantom pregnancy when you have all the symptoms including no AF, but you're not actually pregnant.

Have ordered more tests from the internet which are due today or tomorrow, will test again on Saturday. If I'm not, I just want to get AF and get on with cycle 6. If I am, why am I not producing normal levels of HCG?

Might book a doctors appointment for next week in any case.

Sorry, long post again. Am going mad.

Wishing · 30/10/2008 18:23

dont worry about ranting, we have been there and done that michaela! im now cd36 - longest ive had - but still not daring to test!! i havent tested since monday bit thought that low hcg levels could result in etopic pg now frighten me too!!!

sorry to hear you think af is on way love being a mummy - dont give in till it gets here! thinking of you, and no just how you feel, dont think i want to face trying to work out most fertile days again so figers crossed we dont have to!!

try not to worry too much michaela as that can cause you more problems, this is the 2nd month ive had a loonngg wait and this month has been a bit easier! only a bit mind!!

xxxxxxxx

Ilovebeingamummy · 01/11/2008 22:12

Hi all

Well af arrived Thurs as I feared...had my upset few hours now on with cycle 3...

On the plus side DH is now more aware of how this is all for me so I think its going to be easier this month to get on with things...

Good luck to you girls still in (am I going to be left alone here....?!?)

OP posts:
Ilovebeingamummy · 01/11/2008 22:19

Don;t worry about the ectopic thing - ectopics start off way too high then don't double like a normal pregnancy as it progresses, then drops. So if you were in early pregnancy with an ectopic you would have a strong positive early on - i think!!

Wishing · 02/11/2008 00:25

im still here love being a mummy - it started today i think just waiting for the full flow!! i have had tears today just waiting for blood results to see whats going on, i was sooooo sure this time i was, i
really felt it!!

never mind im here for another month at least - god this is hard!!

MichaelaS · 02/11/2008 01:13

oh no wishing what a shame.

spats · 02/11/2008 14:51

just going through threads and found this one with you on it. So sorry wishing i know you have had such a rough time of it.xx also to you as well ilovebeingamummy. Best of luck to you both for next monhth. its so hprrid isn't it. Are you trying next month or taking a break, wishing. i thought i read somewhere that it was too much, would'nt blame you, so would i except i am 35 in dec and time is ticking on.x

Wishing · 02/11/2008 22:53

thanks spats - i do feel like i hd a rough time this moht and this last weeks feels like its been a life time! but then there are so many of us in the same boat on mn unfortunatly!!

i dont k now spats i go through phases! dh is keen to put it all behind us and try again but this is all taking its toll on me! i was woken up in the night with the pain god it was unbelievable pain, i cant describe it!! i just hope this wasnt another early mc this is my only fear but i know from what i went through last time it is deep down! i suppose one thing is that i no deep down i was right to believe i wasnt imagining the syptoms but i guess the blood test will conf these fears! it is hard and i dont think i will be as obessive this month - but then saying that is it possible not to?? we just gona see how it goes i think, so sort of try but not try if that makes sense - though i know i will be by the time ov comes round again!!

i guess we do it to ourselves!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

MichaelaS · 06/11/2008 17:55
