Anyone else fancy two weeks of crazed symptom spotting?

Come obssess with me. . . . .evey twinge might be a step closer BFP!!!

So far I am 2 DPO - ready to allow my imagination to run wild and persuande myself that evey new sensation may be a sign. . . .

thanks mom.

forget to tell you all dp's reaction..

well, after i got that bfp on the cheapie test i decided to drop hints about it being a good time to test and all of that. he made me go and get a couple of the asda own ones (long story...there the only ones he trusts, thinks they are lucky etc etc...)

anyway. got up the next morning and did the test, took about a minute but a line came up.

dp says.....' oh i knew anyway because the dog has been stalking you for the past few days'

quite a random comment i thought! but there you go ladies. another symptom for you all to spot! x

Shyla
Don't leave! You are our reminder that people do get to leave the waiting room and move on!!

I've heard someone else mention dog-stalking recently. We have a cat - and she's been vomiting a lot again. Do you think that means anything?

shyla01 · 17/07/2009 22:36

thell stalking has not been the word tonight! she has sat at my feet and cried since about 2.30pm. i cant even go to the toilet without being followed. she even sat and watched me have a bath! very odd.

not sure about the cat sick though.

but i can lend you all my dog see if she stalks any of you lot?!

Hi bubba - what CD you on now?

Shyla - lol at your dog stalking you!! My cat was fixated with me last time i was pg - would not leave me alone!!

I am willing away the days till we can dtd again. Last month the wait was not so bad because I was so busy with the party etc (which was ace!) but this month is going to be harder not to obsess - nothing but the usual grind of work. Also going to be hard to manage to dtd anyway because DH and I are on opposite shifts for so much of this month.

Most depressing.

Hi momde,
Im on cd 20, my usual ulc is only 25 but after the mc now i may be all mucked up as it took me 11 weeks to stop bleeding, oh well

there is always next month i suppose lol

lucygrif · 18/07/2009 12:15

morning everyone - I too caved CD29 and BFN!! DP is going to be sooooooooo disappointed (I'm convinced he thinks it's my fault) but roll on Egypt next week and consultant on Monday.

blahdiblahblah · 18/07/2009 13:19

shyla, congrats!
when you said AF arrived - how long did it last for, what was it like?
I got AF yesterday - very pale pink and watery - and now it's completely gone....
I usually start like that but it doesn't dissapear after!
Could I be.....??????
Oh how weird.
TBH I wouldn't be gutted if I wasn't pg as I am starting a new job this month and don't fancy people doing all the mental arithmatic to figure out if I knew before I started or not!!!!

Lucy - sorry you got a BFN - hopefully you have just tested too early? My DP has been very disappointed too - almost find it harder to tell him that to see the BFN myself!

Bubba - have you tested yet?

blah - sounds like avgood sign if you just had a little spotting - implantation maybe? Fingers crossed!

shyla01 · 19/07/2009 08:46

lucy fingers crossed you just tested too early. good luck with the consultant and have a fab time in egypt. went there with dp last year and we loved it.

blah didnt get af this month that was last month. ehat you described does sound like imlantation tho. are you goin to test soon?

good luck to you all. x

thell · 19/07/2009 10:59

Two days of temp up, so it looks like I have ovulated- phew! That's one less thing to worry about!
And it was just when I predicted it would be, and we had plenty of nookie at the right time, so I am finally having a cycle when everything seems to be in place and I don't feel like I'm in the dark

I almost won't mind if I'm not pregnant, as at least things are slotting into place.

(of course I'll mind! But I won't feel like screaming in frustration !)

maisieboo · 19/07/2009 11:19

Have no idea when supposed to ovulate but couldn't leave DH alone the last few days so I think that must be a good sign. It was his Birthday too so he liked the extra present. He also liked his other presents which was great as I spent a mad day searching for them!

Hope everyone is ok. Sounds promising for you Blah, fingers crossed.

lucygrif · 19/07/2009 13:45

still no af but my boobs feel like they're going to explode!! not had any PMT this month (DP may disagree though)
think the BFN was correct though but at least I will be able to drink on holiday and at my 30th/engagement party next month don't fancy the "on antibiotics" - and I don't think it would wash anyway!!

bubbalewy · 19/07/2009 23:19

hi momde,
im being so good and not testing as iv got no feelings that i am , before my boobs went sooooo tender about a week b4 af date,oh and HEADACHES my god! never had that b4, this time nothing, but im sure im making myself think iv got symptoms,i usually spot on cd 21 or 22 then af 3 days later, should spot monday, if i dont im gonna test

hoops997 · 19/07/2009 23:26

Hi everyone, this 2ww is pants isn't it? AF due on 24th and this next week is going to be hell......

bubbalewy · 19/07/2009 23:42

hi hoops
have you got any symptoms?
same as me AF on 24th, have you tested yet?

hoops997 · 20/07/2009 00:20

hey bubba, only sympton is sore boobs but can't tell if I'm imagining them ......I have resisited testing and won't test until Saturday.....had MMC in May and this is my first cycle since.....

thell · 20/07/2009 09:09

I'll be testing 1st August.
Good luck everyone!

thell · 20/07/2009 09:11

BTW, I think I've created a monster!
DH and I managed to DTD 3 days in a row just prior to ovulation, which we had to make quite an effort for...but now it seems having broken through the pain barrier DH has awoken his inner frisky young person!

shyla01 · 20/07/2009 18:27

lol thell
make the most of it, if he's anything like mr shyla it probably wont last long!

lucygrif was reading about a statue in egypt that boosts fertility. got to be worth a trip to the pyramids i think! dp and i didnt visit when we were there but apparently it has worked for thousands of women. i cant remember the name of it but will try and dig it out later.

hello to hoops and bubba

fingers crossed for some more bfp's soon.

bubbalewy · 20/07/2009 22:40
