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. . . .

Sky - welcome to our little corner of craziness!!

DD was conceived during the first month, so it can be done
I had lots of PMT symptoms - very emotional, grumbly period aches, large breasts - which of course turned out to be pregnancy symptoms.
Good luck!

sky27 · 26/07/2009 22:13

Sounds like what i'm going through, large sore breasts, cramps, can't eat certain foods,back ache. Didn't used to get these with af, I'd only know because I'd end up having a screaming row with DH. Fingers crossed

thell · 26/07/2009 22:48

Ooh yes, fingers crossed!

Of course on the flip-side, I would say don't focus too much on how weird / unhealthy you're feeling, because if you find out you're not pregnant it can be really depressing to feel your body is falling apart without a proper excuse!!

Angel and Hoops - huge congratulations!!

What a lucky month it has been!

Sky - welcome!

Same old, same old for me. CD 13/14 today. Positive OPK yesterday so dtd as often as we can (not easy while we are working opposing shift patterns!!).

temp dropped this morning.
:P

Symptom spotting a bit. CD 24. Don't want to get hopes up though. Not going to list symptoms in case I jinx myself!

Hope everyone else is well. Had lovely night out with DH last night. Great way to celebrate end of working week, - but back in tomorrow. Days off go far too fast!

ho hum - CD 20 for me. Again, no syptoms for me this month. Tired - as usual. Sick - seems to be usual now too - perhaps a new and confusing PMT symptom for me!

OPK was positive really early this month - CD 11 instead of CD14. Did dtd across all the dates just in case OPK was wrong but am not very hopeful.

You never know Mom, too early to give up hope. I agree, I've had some bizarre PMT signs the last few months. Was never going to symptom spot again. I think my symptoms are all in my head, I'd love a pos test so much I almost think it'll never happen but hopefully it will soon.

Enjoying all the TTC bit and have really tried not to obsess this month, just let my body do what it wants. Am so used now to odd aches and pains it all just feels normal.

Had to laugh at myself today though, was watching football with DH and nearly started crying when the footballers came on the pitch - funny thing these hormones aren't they!

Enjoyed a few shopping trips this month too, haven't had a good shop for ages.

Hope everyone else is well.

looks like i will be joining you all again ladies.

been bleeding since yest.

got a docs appt later to get refered for scan but not feelig very hopeful.

will let you know how it goes.

maisieboo · 03/08/2009 09:12

Oh Shyla, hope everything is ok, will be thinking about you and sending all positive thoughts your way. xx

maisieboo · 03/08/2009 17:07

Think AF is on her way, some (pale) pink cm when I went to loo this am. Would say this is tmi but I think we're all used to that by now. Had some good symptoms too, breasts were really sore - until today, they've gone back to normal now. AF not due until Thursday too and that'll only be 28 days, another normal cycle for me.

Think I'll have a break in August, we're off on our hols in a few weeks and I don't want to spend holiday stressed about ttc. Also thought I was more relaxed about it all this month but have been really absent minded, really need to concentrate more in rl. So will check in later in week and then give mn a miss for a little while.

Thinking of you Shyla, hope you're ok.

Shyla -really sorry to hear you are having a bleed - hoping that it is a false alarm and sending positive vibes your way.

Maisie - hope that yours is perhaps implantation? I know, I say it every month - perhap this time I am right? Like your plan about taking some time out - lots of wine and naughty cheese/pate - should guarantee a BFP!!

Keeping fingers crossed for you all x

shyla01 · 04/08/2009 11:11

thanks girl.

got a scan today at 2pm so fingers crossed.

bleeding has stopped and still have quite strong symptoms so you never know!

when will you be testing this month mom?

hope this is the month for you.

xx

maisieboo · 04/08/2009 18:46

Hope all is good Shyla.

AF not arrived yet. Would like to think you are right Mom, would love it to be implantation.

Momdeguerre · 05/08/2009 03:24

Fingers crossed for you both - will be thinking of you for your scan Shyla and Maisie I really do hope it is implantation.

I am CD 23 - so about a week left - if I manage to wait that long!

OP posts:
shyla01 · 05/08/2009 07:41

hi all. just to let you know i had the scan and everythin was fine!

can hardly believe it. they couldnt find where the bleed came from, probably just a bit of old implantation blood or something.

very relieved, but still being a bit cautious as have got the this stage before and still mc'd.

thank you all for you support. dont know where i would be without you all!.

maisieboo · 05/08/2009 17:37

Great news Shyla!

Well I'm pretty sure AF is here, seems my cycle is now a textbook 28 days. Retail therapy has called again. Going to dip out for a while, need to try and forget about this for a bit, may help things along in an odd kind of way. Good Luck to all and thanks for your support, see you all in a few months time.

HI,
Did an early test yesterday and got a positive but not till way after the time I was meant to read it in.

Did another early test this morning and - faint but definite BFP.

Delighted and terrified - hoping this little one hangs on. EDD should be 22nd April 2010.
