Don't worry whitty, we've all felt jealous at times, its only natural.

I just bought a cheapie test but bfn. This dizziness is getting worse, i think i am going to go to the doc in the morning. I hope it doesnt get worse for tomorrow cause ive got my driving test at 2.50pm and want to have a clear head.

Just incase i don't get a chance to get on over the weekend just wanted to wish you good luck for monday Bubble

Thanks Ive got more hope only because the three little spots on my pantie liner have not increased...maybe it is will see tomorrow...good luck on your test seany

Bubblebell1 · 23/04/2009 18:13

Thanks seany i feel abit nervous. worried what they will find... someones old boot no doubt!

Good luck for tomorrow. im sure u will pass with flying colours

dont give up girls. MadM tested a few times and got bfns and was stil pg so try not to worry til the biatch is banging at the door.

after my mc in feb my next cycle was only 26 days with no spotting but since then ive had a bit of spotting pre af.. never had this before and wondered if it was anything to do with not concieving?

whitty it could be implantation bleeding. which can occur at 7-10 dpo or when af would be due. im keeping my fingers crossed for you both.

well i am on boring cd11 and i am offically exhausted. ds2 has not stopped all day. i know he hasnt had anything dodgey coz he is allergic to dairy and soya and i have to study the packaging on anything he has. Is it normal for a 2.2 yr old to get up at 4am and be like a whirlwind for the rest of the day? He hasnt even had a nap !

seanybosmummy · 23/04/2009 21:06

It really amazes me the energy kids seem to pull out of thin air!! Poor bubble- i hope you get a full nights sleep tonight.
Try not to worry too much about monday, im sure there's nothing wrong, but you are just being on the safe side getting things checked.Let me know how you get on.

Thank you all for your good luck wishes for my test tomorrow xx

I am still spotting and it is getting a darker pink colour so i assume this is def af.Wish it would just hurry up and arrive properly so i can start afresh at cd1. I havent been having cramping or anything which is weird for me

Def going to go to doc in morning about the dizziness (think maybe i have low bp as was talking to my mum about it and she said she gets this before her af due).

How is everyone else doing?

whitty im still keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Antdamm · 24/04/2009 08:55

Seany

Any news? Have you tested? ?? Good luck

Antdamm · 24/04/2009 08:58

Realise I have forgotten to say Good Luck for your driving test!!

Wen are you going to see docs? I hav an appointment for tuesday. See if doc can make sense of all this

madmissy · 24/04/2009 09:28

just wanted to see how you girls are doing?

like bubble said dont give up! took me 4 neg tests and only got 4 pos ones at a week late!

seanybosmummy · 24/04/2009 11:51

Hi girls,

Still spotting lightly. went to docs this morning about dizziness and my bp is fine but he thinks cause my cycles have always been reg and since last month i was late and had bfp then bfn, he says he thinks i had a v early mc last month . He says if af has not came properly by next week ive to go back for blood test as i could be pg (ps nips have suddenly got sore again wtf???)

Thanks for the good luck-will let yous know how i get on with my test this afternoon-hopefully i pass!!

whitty so glad your spotting has stopped-thats a good sign!!

How are you ant?

OP posts:
whittywantababy6 · 24/04/2009 12:10

Hey ladies [seany] that seems like hope on your side... my spotting has stopped Im having some very minor cramps but I think it may just be gas sorry tmi ...af is due tomorrow...so we will see

Antdamm · 24/04/2009 15:48

Hey ladies,

Seany - how did you get on with the driving?
How is everyone else?
Still nothing to report from me, other than a weird feeling in my stomach (i swear I may be going crazy) it was like thumping and the really weird part? I could see the movement when I looked at it. (I'll section myself now)....why don't they have a crazed lady emoticon???

Seany how was the test?... i have a bottle of wine here that i shant open until ive heard your good news

Ant have you thought about taking herbal remedies to help regulate your cycles? honest.. it really worked for me. after the pill my cycles were all over the place. since taking agnus castus its very regular. i just know how awful it is to wait for ages for af to show. but... she could be away for a reason so i will keep my fingers crossed.

hope ur all good and have a lovely wkend

xxxx

seanybosmummy · 24/04/2009 18:11

Hey girls,

Well its not good news-i failed again (im gutted) , but i guess i will just have to try again.

Think i mite join you in that drink bubble

Something strange has happened- the spotting has now stopped! i haven't a clue what is going on with my body!!

ant that is a strange one! hopefully you get some good news on tues at your appointment. When was the last time you tested?

How is everyone else today? Hope you all have a lovely weekend. xx

OP posts:
Antdamm · 24/04/2009 21:02

Seany,

Sorry to hear about the driving test. i took one in Derry and I was rubbish - ended up with 17minors, whereas in Scotland i managed to do and only get 4!! They keep telling me that NI is the hardest place to pass your driving test.

Are you going to test again??
I last tested on the 19th, will see wat happens with docs and decide whether or not to buy another test, some agnus castus or a strait jacket lol

seanybosmummy · 25/04/2009 07:55

pmsl at the strait jacket ant, you def hit the nail on the head there lol- i think we could all do with one! God the 19th was almost a week ago, your still in with a good chance of a bfp (could be just taking its time). I really really hope you get it.

Im not going to take another test, i think af is just strolling in at a leisurely pace arrrghh the spotting has returned but it is bright red now. it prob just stopped yest cause i was so stressed with my driving test.

Im going to book another one next week when i get paid-i only got 3 minors yesterday but i was too wide on my reversing round a corner (thats what i failed on last time as well fgs). I took my 1st test on 9th jan and my instructor has changed his car 3 times since then so thats not helping!!

Is anyone up to anything nice this weekend?

When i was out shopping i called to holland and barratt and had a look for angus castus, and it said on the back your not meant to take them when your pg (do you think this would hinder chances of ttc?). Does yours say that on the back bubble

Hope your all well...x

OP posts:
Bubblebell1 · 25/04/2009 08:34

Morning all.

just on my way to take ds1 to football with super fat lip with an awful crustation on it. really dont want to go out the house but ds1 would never forgive me.

Seany i phoned a medical herbalist who i found in the yellow pages. I told her i was ttc but my periods were irregular. she said that i could go and see her, pay the £60 consultation fee and then get a specially made concoction or and these were her words 'try agnus castus as its been used for centuries to regulate womens cycles'. She did say not to take if i have pcos but nothing about being pg.
mine do say not to take if pg or breast feeding.
I know that some ppl take agnus castus for the first 2 wks of their cycle and then stop til af arrives. perhaps if you were worried then you could try that.?

I take pregnacare conception, b complex and agnus castus. my cycles have become more regular. finished the pill in oct and period didnt show til jan. (2 wks after starting to take agnus castus.) then 1 fell pg that month and mc but since the mc ive had a 26 day cycle and a 28. Much better than the mammouth 72 day one!!

Ant you deserve a medal. your patience is outstanding. i really hope you get a bfp soon.

how is everyone?? doing anything exciting this weekend?

Bubblebell1 · 25/04/2009 08:36

that should read... I fell pg. not 1 fell pg.

whittywantababy6 · 25/04/2009 14:25

well hello all, how is everyone today...seany sorry bout your driving test I hate those things its so nerve wrecking. I should pop a bottle open and drink today I think its going to be nice. Anywho af was due this morning and hasnt shown but I refuse to test until like wednesday. Well ladies I must go cuz Im going to my brothers football game...yippe I guess ...well enjoy the weekend

Antdamm · 25/04/2009 15:47

Hey ladies,

Still nothing to report. Just waiting til I see the doc. Am going to get some agnus castus next time i'm in town. Otherwise, I might be having ridiculous length cycles forever!!!

Seany - sorry to hear about AF. Once you pass your test(next time obviously) the stress will have disappeared and you will get a BFP. I'm sure of it

Bubble - are you on the two week wait? When do you take agnus castus? Just up to the 2ww??

Weather is a bit rubbish here today, but dull and cloudy. Was supposed to be going to get DS a metal detector and take him to the beach for some 'treasure hunting' but might just leave it for tomorrow. Oh well

After some ridiculous amount of googling by DP and I, they say that my 'thumping' stomach may be a hernia!! Whooopeee

Well, have updated list for all to see

Bubblebell1 · 25/04/2009 16:50

Whitty hopefully af not showing means a bfp is round the corner.

Ant i just take it every day. i will stop once i get a bfp tho and just continue with the pregnacare.

im on cd13 im waiting for a positive on my opk so i can get busy with dh. This coldsore is huge. really sore and my lip is swollen. i am feelin pretty ill too. i hope that i am better soon. I dont want to miss my chance this month.

seanybosmummy · 25/04/2009 20:22

Hi girls,

Welllllll i have stopped spotting again wtf??? Oh i give up!! The doc said if af has not arrived prop by next week then ive to go back and get blood test done to check if im pg-lets hope the spotting doesnt reappear!

It sounds like you have some sort of virus bubble because of the cold sore+feeling ill. Don't they say you usually get cold sores when your run down? I hope you feel better soon xx

Is your stomach painful ant? A hernia sounds nasty-poor you x

Antdamm · 26/04/2009 15:07

Hey ladies,

Well, lo and behold as I hav Doc's appointment tomorrow, guess who showed up?? Thats right the Evil Witch is here, at least she's here now. But (TMI ALERT) when she arrived - this morning- I havent felt like it was a regular visit, I don't feel bleeeugh like I usually do, but the products(ahem) of her visit are thick and dark, like old blood. Very stringy I'd say. (I did warn you)

So, other than that things are good. Going to Doc's tomorrow and definitely getting some agnus castus aswell, see if that helps.

How is everyone else?

Bubblebell1 · 26/04/2009 15:32

Hey girls!

Ant im sorry that you didnt get your bfp but on the plus side af has finally shown up and you can get on with ttc instead of being in limbo. I hope the AC does the trick and gets you regular again. babydust coming your way for this cycle.

Whitty hope your well. is your temp still up?

Seany how are you today? any sign of AF? are you goin to be testing soon?

whittywantababy6 · 26/04/2009 18:06
