Please come and join me add yourselves to the list We can try and keep each other sane

Awwh, I'm gonna miss hearing about you guys who are leaving us for November, but may well see you over there. All the best for now!!

I need to keep sane. I am convinced I'm pg. Feel nauseous, norks feel bigger/more tender, and I just feel pg!

I've rechecked the dates of my AFs over the last eight months (yes, I really have nothing better to do), and I seem to be on a 26/27 cycle, not 28. So... as of tomorrow, I'll be late!

I am sure I'm pg, but I'm terrified to test in case I am or I'm not! I'll be terrified either way! All those 'how on earth will I cope with a baby when I'm already so busy with work and my DD' thoughts are coming back!

Anyone around to administer some much-needed sanity and give me a slap?

Ooh 8erlynite* that could be (whispers) implantation. If you got a BFN though not really sure - maybe wait for the weekend and test again so you can make sure it's BFN cos sometimes people have tested false negative.

Fingers crossed for you

hobnob consider yourself slapped.

But have you got a test for tomorrow just in case? I'm a little excited for you so probably not the best person to keep you sane!

Fingers crossed earlynite - worth testing again in a week?

Cheerio to all those going to the Nov thread - good luck. Might see you there; if not, I'll keep lurking to see you all get the BFPs.

Ow, irishmum - that was a hard slap!
Thank you, though, I needed it to come to my senses.
Yes, I have a test - but I think I'll wait till Sat if AF hasn't arrived. DP's not around until the weekend, so it would be good to have him on hand ? if only for some RL slaps! Or I might test Fri and then show him the test Sat. OR I might just give in and do it now!

My norks feel bigger and tender and my back is aching! Am I pg too?? Although could only be about 4 days pg!!!! More madness

I am a thread killer. Night everyone.

Yes, I'm convinced we're both pg, halfmum! I'm already trying to work out when to tell DP and my AF could arrive tomorrow morning. I really must get a grip! Anyway, goodnight halfmum!

well after my positive test yesterday its now a negative! am on cd25 of what normally would be a 30 day cycle so maybe im still a little early... maybe my cycle hasnt settled from the 68day 1 last time i have a feeling of pressure (sp?) in my lower abdo and the odd twang i am feeling tired and can smell EVERYTHING. i am symptom spottin like mad but im not actually convinced im pregnant.

im sorry that some of you have left i wish you all the best of luck on the Nov thread. i will no doubt be with you by next week.

early it could be a short visit from AF or it could be implantation. the only way to find out is to test! (ive got my fingers crossed for the latter)

good luck to those testing soon and those on the 2ww

hobnob - good luck trying to keep it together! I hope you don't go completely crazy. Let us know how the test goes.

Bubble, hang on in there! I really hope it was a one-off BFN today.

Hope you are all well. I am feeling so much more positive since my AF arrived. And I'm going away on holiday soon, which should hopefully coincide with the BD stage of the month, so looking forward to a fun filled trip!! My in-laws will be with us for some of the time though so hopefully they won't find the huge stash of OPKs and folic acid I am planning on taking with me!

Bubble, really sorry to hear that the tests aren't being consistent. Which tests are you using? Hope it gets clearer soon. TBH it does sound a bit on the early side but I know how difficult it is to wait!

I don't know how those of you with long/irregular cycles cope. I had a BFN on Monday which was day 27/28 of a usually 28 day cycle. There was no hint of a positive so I'm taking it as a clear negative. No AF yet and if it's not here tomorrow that'll be the longest cycle I've ever had (I'll test then if it's not). Mind you, it is the first cycle since finishing breastfeeding so that might have changed things.

I'm feeling really under the weather and desperate to break into the Lemsip and the wine (this evening not at this precise moment!) but don't want to till AF is here. Last night I was going to the loo every half hour to check! ARGHH I know this is nothing to what lots of you have to dal with. I wonder whether it's possible to hold on to/delay your period when you're TTC because you don't really want it to arrive.

Sorry that's a bit of an essay now but it's nice to vent! Good luck to everyone testing.

I will join you on that, at evey month till I have one :-D

What is AF? (sorry being thick I think!)

Hi nunnie - AF=Auntie Flo = Period.

How far along are you nunnie?

Bubble I've just realised that my post on your tests sounds a bit negative. I don't think it's possible to have a false positive except in really rare circumstances so it does sound very hopeful but perhaps too early to ensure that you've got enough there each time you test hence the negative?

catz not being negative.. dont worry
they were clear blue tests, not the digital 1s just normal +/- ones. after reading the POAS website i think it was just a fluke.. apparantly it can happen. altho it is rather cruel i will buy some first response tests tomorrow and test again fri morn.

Hello Catz, I have just today started my AF, not as heavy as usual, but a period at that.

I am now entering my 17 month of trying.

Oops, sorry maths has never been my strong point.

STOP I should be on the NOV bus!!!

Have some spotting today, so I think AF is on her way...

Nunnie - good luck on the Nov thread - there's a strong chance I'll be joining you later this week!

Hobnob - sorry to hear that, hope it stays off...

Fingers crossed bubblebell hobnob and catz early have you tested?

Cat update - very affectionate this morning, this is a DEFINITE sign, i don't care what you say!

Glad to see the BFP list is going strong, congrats everyone.

I've had cramping today, but possibly coz I'd been sat hunched over MN for half an hour! Also right boob has been aching on an off since last night. Am thinking of getting a cat.....

Oh dear - AF has got me, good and proper . So much for being convinced I was pg!

I hear the November thread calling - I'm outta here! I'll keep checking back and lurking to see how you all get on. Good luck for those BFPs!

Just popped in to say congratulations to the new BFPs!

Hi all congrats on BFP's

Norks still massive and aching and have bigger appetite than normal. Amusing today at work as boss fretting about our work load this year and I was thinking 'actually it could be worse than you think cos I won't be here at the end of the year'. Although obv I may not be pg.

Sorry to hear about you getting your AF hobnob. Nightmare.

girlwithacurl Not tested yet. Going to leave it till weekend. Don't think I'm PG though.
