Am I Pregnant???

I know there are lots of other threads about this but can anyone tell me if I'm pregnant. My period is normally due on a certain date each month as opposed to a number of days cycle. It normally comes on the last day of the month but because Feb was short it came on 28 and then March was a bit wonky and it came on 28 again.

I have therefore been expecting to see some signs that I'm going to have it for days now and have so far done 5 pregnancy tests which all say I am pregnant with absolutely no hint of a maybe in sight.

I still don't have it. I don't want to jinx it as I am desperate to be pregnant again.

Can anyone give me any hope or at least make me be a little realistic and come back to earth.

Meanmum ... sorry to hear that you are not pg this month ... looks like we are in the same boat ... all this planning and hoping and waiting ... does your head in doesn't it???
Bunny2 .. my DH doesn't seem too bothered either and it upsets me sometimes but then I realise that he really likes the idea of 'trying' every month ... he has got more fun in the bedroom department in the last 5 months than he has in the last 3.5 years!!! So he is not complaining IYKWIM! I keep telling him to look at the 'bigger picture' but well, he's a bloke so what more can I say????

Ghosty - are you married to my dh???? He's not complaining about the extra action either but never seems to take much interest in the whole thing. Never asks if I am or if I'm not and when I tell him I quite often don't get an answer at all. I figure my girlfriends and mumsnet give me that part of it.

I often think it is unfair of me to expect him to read my mind, know my moods, cook, clean and cater for me. I still expect it of course but I do have to remind myself that he is different to me and even though he may not show it he wants another baby as much as I do.

Good luck to all of us. If nothing else trying for a baby revives some of the romance that seems to disappear in day to day life.

Got my period today, boo. Told dh and his response was something about trying harder next month. I suppose all men have the same priority and it is not the same as ours.

Any news?

Mum2Toby · 12/05/2003 12:10

Tessie - Yup...... I'm not pregnant!! Definite comfirmation as of Saturday. Was getting quite worried as I had stopped taking the pill on Monday! It usually only takes 3 or 4 days at the very most to come on..... but at least I did. and a little

At least I'm not going to have a bump at my wedding! I'll be a bit more vigilant from now on. We wnat to start trying for real right after the wedding...... can't wait!!

Thanks for asking.

badjelly · 12/05/2003 13:13

Tessie, any news yet? It took us a year of trying - it was the month I had changed my mind about the whole thing and only did it once (on his birthday, awww) that things happened.
Everyone else - keep it up!

quackers · 12/05/2003 13:35

Hi there, gosh that came around quick! Glad you came on but sad too cos I know you'd love another but not yet! You can look forward to your wedding day now - exciting!!!!!

Tessie · 12/05/2003 13:41

No news from me although am due on on Wednesday/Thursday if my cycle is 30 days again this month...no real obvious signs either way yet and am NOT getting my hopes up.

Mum2Toby · 12/05/2003 13:49

Thanks Quackers.

Tessie and everyone else who is trying..... keep hard at it

I'm sure one of you at least, will have some happy news soon!

LucieB · 13/05/2003 15:14

Seems to have been an awfully long time since anyone had any pregnancy news...:-(
I am still practising a lot and get disappointed each month, confused by my cycle and just generally fed up.
