Still no AF. Get paid tomorrow so if still no sign of AF will be popping out to buy a test.

I can only take my bra off long enough to change it atm so sore. There is deff a downside to having large norks! Off to the loo more often and really spotty skin but these can be premenstrual signs as well as pg signs so hey ho will wait till tomorrow to see. Will prob wait to test till Sat morning though.

My only symptom so far is being a bit blocked up. Otherwise I feel fine and dandy so don't think I am pregnant. I could go naked jogging, drink wine, stay up all night, drink coffee by the bucket load, sniff the bin...

Four days until AF due so still early days for me!

Good luck to everyone! And no obsessing if you can help it while waiting (yeah, right, I know).

Hi everyone! So glad this thread was started, Im going mad w symptom spotting and paranoia! We havent been ttc already have 6 almost 7mnth old ds, 2 yr old dd and 4 year old ds! But we were lets say, naive on new years eve (ewcm day after) and the week after. Were using the withdrawal method, hadnt decided what contraception to use since birth of ds2, had heard nasty things bout injection, coil and mini pill. Periods havent yet returned as Im still breastfeeding BUT they returned about 7mnths w my other 2 dc. Maybe Im paranoid but since over a week now Iv had pms type crampy achy feeling v low down, shooting pains in boobs, warm 'fuzzy' drugged feeling few nights ago like I was too tired even to smile. DH said he hadnt seen me like that since preg t first time. Bn getting a sharp quick pain/headache at top of head on and off all week, never normally get headaches. Have had times when Im convinced I am then not so sure. Since last night Ive had the feeling of pressure on my bladder even though Id just hada wee. Dida clear blue digital Tues but was neg, still not convinced tho as have no idea when Id be due on! What do you all think? PLace bets now!

FlorenceB · 15/01/2009 09:20

I am still testing negative.. no AF though and no symptoms of either pregnancy or AF... All very odd!!! Good luck to the rest of you xx

BeckyBendyLegs · 15/01/2009 09:21

My bets are on you being preggers shoneshine!

shoneshine · 15/01/2009 09:49

Ooooooo maybe Im mad (15m gap!) but Im almost hoping so! Will be hard work and my house will be even messier! But Wel manage. Had 17m gap (planned) between our first 2 so hfly this wont be too much harder. Bit scary, just want to know now!Xx

Twiglettini · 15/01/2009 12:44

Hello Beanstalk, hello sabs1981, hello silentlywondering, hello everyone.

How have the Thursday testers been???

I'm still a bfn, but probably not due until tomorrow anyway.

Twiglettini · 15/01/2009 13:01

Sorry, I keep posting before reading to the end of the thread. Hello shoeshine too!

I'm with BeckyBL - bet you're preg. V. glad that you think that would be good news - in a really mad, chaotic, messy way!! Come and join us on the ttc number 4 thread!

BeckyBendyLegs · 15/01/2009 13:15

I'm in awe of you TTCing number four people. I'm TTCing number three. I don't think we'll stretch to four, unless I get twins this time around (if I get anything this time around that is).

I had a cup of coffee this morning and...it tasted fantastic! Grump!

Twiglettini · 15/01/2009 13:28

I was sure that we would stop at 3, but now 4 feels like the right number - hoping hoping it is the right number!

Sorry your coffee tasted good, me too, I'm still fine with coffee. Mild cramping gone, but no AF.

Keep us posted everyone...

Twiglettini · 15/01/2009 13:33

ps. maybe tmi, but am burping a lot (in a very lady-like, discreet manner obviously) - please, please tell me this is a definite sign of early pregnancy

BeckyBendyLegs · 15/01/2009 13:44

Oh yes burping is a sign. Wind generally is a sign, up or down.

Twiglettini · 15/01/2009 14:05

Everything is a sign isn't it, in the run up to your period.

Cazza28 · 15/01/2009 14:19

Hi all, I am in the 2ww to! Test date I think the 26th January but love reading posts!

Baby Dust to all! x

turtle23 · 15/01/2009 15:26

Thursday ladies...have you run away to sept thread already?

Sabs1981 · 15/01/2009 15:48

iloverosycheecks have you tested? any luck??

florenceB sorry to hear it was negative...but no AF is a good sign...

beanstalk and shoneshine hoping thats all positive signs for you....

Sabs waves to twiglettini, bendy, turtle and any1 else ive missed! welcome to cazza*

well im on jury service this week, very boring...jus been sitting around, got called up to 2 cases, but then didnt get selected, and then yesterday got selected but the case got postponed as the key witness is ill! dont need to go back until monday

upsyanddiggle i was also meant to wait until sunday but i couldnt wait, especially as like you all my symptoms are similar to AF symptoms...but also feeling very sleepy which could be down to my jet lag and weeing lots more which is a pregnancy symptom for me, but i took a test today (clear blue digital) and it was postitive!!!! took another test (first response again) and it was positive too

You ladies on MN are the first to know after DH...i feel so different from last time...so scared and anxious and not quite wanting to believe it...will make an appointment with GP next weeek if my period definately doesnt appear and then for a 7 week scan at EPAU

silentlywondering · 15/01/2009 16:02

I couldn't wait, I gave in to the voice in my head and tested. I got a BFP. Am going to scuttle over to the sept thread but not coming out of hiding till have told family and friends. Am terrified that it will all go wrong again though.

Sabs1981 · 15/01/2009 16:12

congrats silently !!!

silentlywondering · 15/01/2009 16:18

Thank you.

BeckyBendyLegs · 15/01/2009 16:58

Hi everyone. My AF arrived in Sainsbury's just now five days early. Totally gutted. Although I knew I wasn't pregnant (all the other times I knew and the test was just a formality!) but I don't know why but somehow I thought this month might be my lucky month in a way, even though I knew in my heart of hearts I wasn't pregnant. Too sad to even cry right now. I am so having a large glass of tia maria and orange juice later.

Congrats sw on your bfp! Yeah! I wish lots of luck

Cazza28 · 15/01/2009 17:13

Congrats SW I hope some of your luck will rub off on me!

Sorry to hear that Becky, i know that feeling well, been off the pill for nearly two years and still nothing! Although only been using opks for 4 months so hoping this will help me!

Sabs/SW did you have any early symptoms i know this may be a TMI question but what was your CM like a few days after O? I normally have a lot at this time, but have nothing at all!

Thanks Guys x

Sabs1981 · 15/01/2009 17:22

cazza both times for me I have an increased need to wee and feeling tired and sleepy...sorry not too sure about cm...

silentlywondering · 15/01/2009 18:24

Wasn't paying attention as we were not actively trying, just letting nature do its own thing. I didn't want any stress after prev m/c's. When af was late I sort of knew cause of having peen pg before. Main symptom was that my breasts were much more tender than usual.

upsyandiggle · 15/01/2009 19:56

congrats sabs1981 and sw. good luck to everyone else. got a feeling that AF will arrive tonight for me .

shoneshine · 15/01/2009 21:44

Thanks everyone! Well my cheap ebay tests arrived and I did one (not with first morning wee!) it was a BFN!!! Does that mean Im not??? Havent a clue when I would be due IF I even ovulated but conception ould of happened on the 31st Dec, 2nd Jan and 4th Jan. When dya think the test would be accurate if it was BFN? Hard to say.....Ive had false negatives before wth ds and dd. Time will tell but Im so impatient!!!Xx
