Step away from the first response and noone will get hurt... PART 2

[nunnie]

New thread ladies. For those that don't know this is a thread to discourage early testing, dissapointment and bank loans!!

STEP AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Pistachio, I am fine and dandy thank you you?

Well... CD28... and the witch hasn't shown up yet although temps were very low this morning so I think she's coming soon

However, no symptoms either, except for mild cramping for the last week or so (which is nothing unusual for me). Last month was a 32 day extravaganza so gonna try to hold out until day 35 (my longest ever cycle) before testing. Wish me luck!

Good luck, and well done for getting this far without caving
Don't know what cycle day I am on and I don't care .

Hey nunnie, that's wonderful. I'm hoping to be like that next month - final set of exams coming up so there will be no time to obsess over my temp/CM/dodgy symptoms (I hope!).

Hmmm, the witch has arrived (predictably)

Sorry to hear that Pistachio - better luck next month.

Thanks Liskey. I was kind of expecting because my temps this morning... still a little gutted though.

How are you this afternoon?

Still getting cramps in my stomach and still feeling terrified which is so daft!

I wanted to get pregnant and then when I do I'm scared. I keep thinking how huge a responsbility children are and how we'll cope, which we would do I'm sure. Still if it works out then we've got 9 months to get used to the idea

I think I'd be terrified too - not daft at all!

Do you have a doctor's/midwife appointment yet? So excited for you!

I was going to leave getting a doctors appt for a bit just to make sure it continues. I do sound very cautious but thats the mc.

Pistachio, or anyone else out there, can you tell me about the temperature thing: can it be any type of thermometer? And what time of day do you test? can i use this method in place of OPK? thanks

liskey, omg! thats great news. congrats!!

renee, temping is where you take your WAKING temp and you chart it. when your temp peaks you are oving. it dips again right before your period. it can be quite accurate but not for a couple of months, because you need to see your body's cycle.

here

Hey ReneRusso, I use fertility friend to chart mine... you get 30 days free trial and then you can pay for the bells and whistles version or continue with a free but pared down version.

You do need a special basal body temperature thermometer though.

iirc boot do a temping kit.

thanks for the info

Temping worked for me!
I've stopped panicking so much today - it was just the shock really.

Hi everybody,
I'm so pleased for you liskey, glad you got over the shock!!!
Hows you pme staying away from those tests i hope!!!

Hi Angelfifi, I am sooo sorry I caved today, 3 days til AF, feckn negative, gonna stop nw...I mean it. Waste of bloody money

Is yr AF staying away? Hope so!
I had a terrible day yesterday, wanted smething to try and cheer me up so think thats why I tested today, was hoping it would be postive

Jack had a really bad day yesterday seizure wise, I actually lost count hw many he had

But we hav his consultant tomorrow, can't come quick enough

Oh no pme so sorry, hope hes ok. Bless him.
Af has stayed away so far, i keep wanting to do a test but i know it will be neg, which will then put me in a bad mood!! I have bought some off ebay and i have just read the reviews on them and apparently these ones are bad for evap lines! Great gets better doesnt it! Hope you have a better day today with Jack.

Thanku Angelfifi, that means a lot, he has bn ok so far today, he has the physio coming later on.. yeh try not to test, but tbh I don't blame u if u do, I will try hold out til Friday, god sake, so the test u ordered aren't meant to be good??

Shit! Thts rubbish, I ordered one's from ebay

Hello one and all, sorry Pistachio and good luck with the 'I don't care what cycle day I am on' next month . I still don't care!
PME - so sorry to here poor Jack had a bad day, must take it out of you all . If you don't want to test do what I am doing I have spent the last few weeks buying things for my dd in the for sale section on here, even if I wanted to test now (which I don't) but if I did I couldn't afford a test now

Hiya nunnie, good for u not caring what cycle day you are on!!

Wish I had the willpower, I am nw cd27 of 30 day CL, neg test today, nt looking hopeful

Thanku, Jack is a little star, and soo brave
It does put lotsa stress on us seeing him like that, poor baby but he ok so far, takes seizures every day, but hopefully soon we will get it under control

(((pme)))

Thanku loads Clwc xx
