iggy - could it be an ectopic? Don't want to worry you but you should get to the doctor. do you feel better now?

Yellow - I think it would be a bit early for an ectopic to make me feel ill? I thought you had to be a few weeks PG? You're right about symptoms tho... I looked them up!

kitty but not got much to say to them except I feel a tiny bit sicky! Might ring NHS direct... or my mum..

yellowflowers · 02/03/2009 11:24

when I had awful shoulder pain and was expecting period I worried it was ectopic (it turned out to be muscle strain from carrying friend's 4 year old on shoulders) but I rang the epu (early pregnancy unit) at uch (got number from google search) and spoke to a nurse and she was very good and asked lots of questions and said she didn't think I needed to come in. She was much better than nhs direct. Maybe do that?

Iggy - hope whatever you decided to do about these sickness and pains you are feeling better now. If your AF doesn't whow on Weds then its testing time Missy!

Yellow - big hugs to you my lovely. Poor thing, what a shit few days you've had. At least your dh is on board for this month! Every now and again I seem to to have a month of complete random spotting and lateness of main event. I think its mother natures way of messing with our heads.

Queenie - hey honey don't give up just because of the lack of tangible symptoms. Loads of women don't get any at all. Its not over until the witch arrives.

Flintski - I don't think anyone can be that sure of when they ov. Temping probably gives the clearest ndication but all OPK's do is tell you your body is thinking about releasing an egg soonish. And they are based on the idea that you only have one LH surge a month which isn't necessarily the case. Even ov pains I have read can be a build up of mucus in the tube rather than the actual egg releasing.

Bottom line seems to be have loads of sex because hoping to catch the moment is pretty impossible.

Hopefirbundle - I have my fingers crossed for you too.

Well I have had a few bad moments in the last few days. My SIL who is about 22 weeks pg with her first told us she bought her dh a little babygro for Valentines Day saying "I love daddy." I then burst into tears because I wished it could have been me buying cute things for my dh from a bump.

Npw I've just checked hotmail and seen pics of a new arrival of another friend of ours - her 2nd child. Already has a ds and now a very sweet little dd - natch. The perfect family.

Feel shit and guilty for feling so envious. I try so hard to stay positive but every now and again something just floors me.

Hi Wasabi - poor you, that is horrible.Hope you feel a bit better after getting it out of your system on here. xx

iggypiggy · 02/03/2009 15:11

I have spoken to my mum (nurse) and my dad (doctor) and they reckon just hold on for now and see if I get the pains again. My dad's inspired suggestion was Ov pains... but that would be really far too late!

wasabi a small part of me is hoping the nausea is a good sign.. but I've had nausea before AF a few times before and been convinced Also sorry you feeling bad - totally understand - am meeting a friend who is 24 weeks PG next week.. am worried that I might be a bit

queenie1 · 02/03/2009 16:06

wasabi - totally understand the envy! Two friends of mine have just announced they are PG...delighted for them, of course, but green with envy

iggy - how lucky for you to have a nurse and a doctor for parents!! Here's hoping for you for this month.

If I've not got my AF by Wed then I might consider testing...so looks like we need to hand-hold in the next couple of days

queenie1 · 02/03/2009 16:07

yellow - forgot to say sorry to hear you've had such a rough weekend. huge, huge virtual hugs to you.

iggypiggy · 02/03/2009 16:39

queenie1 same day as me then... mine would be due weds or poss thurs.

I want to test now - but don't want to be dissapointed... going to wait i reckon. maybe test Thurs am? Guess depends if I get cramps etc.

Hi kyte - from what I know (and I'm no expert!) I don't think it's possible to double ov each month. Can't help you on the temping thing though as clueless. Am sure someone else will be able to.

funtimewincies · 03/03/2009 09:44

I'm obviously the wrong sort, as I've tried 3 or 4 times over the last couple of years to join FF and it still doesn't want me .

iggypiggy · 03/03/2009 10:20

I am having twinges... not proper cramps - but am convinced AF is on way... v. sad cos Am sure we BD'd at right time this month...

yellowflowers · 03/03/2009 12:41

how odd funtime - do you need me to register for you and then send you the username and password?

hi iggy - good luck!

How weird hormones are - from Fri-Mon I was distraught at not being pregnant. not af nearly finished and I am full of hope for this month. Have also booked gp and nurse appt. Nurse because I heard that infections can kill early stage embryos so thought I should be checked for stds (nop reason to think I have them but I am susceptible to thrush and bv) and doctor to talk about stuff generally. So feel like I am doing stuff. Have also ordered preseed for first time.

funtimewincies · 03/03/2009 12:43

That would be great yellowflowers! Great to hear that you're feeling positive about this month .

yellowflowers · 03/03/2009 13:20

funtime I need to give them your email address or you need to give me your email address so I can get it sent to me and then forward it to you. Appreciate this gets rid of the anonymity of this site somewhat though. Do you want to send me a personal message with it in?

OP posts:
yellowflowers · 03/03/2009 13:21

ps if you want to stay anonymous you could set up account like [email protected] and use that - you only need it to set up acocunt anyway, then once you have username and password you are sorted.

queenie1 · 03/03/2009 14:05

yellow - great to hear you are feeling better and it sounds like you are taking v positive steps for this month.

Still no af for me but also not feeling PG (now 12dpo and expected AF yesterday). Saying that, I'm beginning to feel concious of my boobs feeling a little tender (but not like they have in previous months). I'm so hoping this is my month but I guess I've just got to be patient. I don't want to test yet as, like I said before, I can't face seeing another bfn.

wasabipeanut · 03/03/2009 14:14

Queenie - I really do understand. The reason I didn't test earlier in my bfp month was that I couldn't face seeing that bfn. I caved after 4 days!

You know, it really could be your month.

iggypiggy · 03/03/2009 15:16

queenie1 am the same...

But we are due ssome BFPs - I have my fingers crossed for you.

I might test tomorrow.. what do you all think? That would be CD28... usual cycle anything from 25 - 33 days - with 27 days most common, but last two cycles been a bit longer [hmm)

yellowflowers · 03/03/2009 15:22

good luck queenie and iggypiggy for when you do text. Hope it's bfp but if it is please stick around - i am terrified everyone will get bfp and bugger off leaving me here all alone
