Question - I don't check ovulation so not sure when I ovulate! I am on day 17 of usual 25-30 cycle. Is it too early for symptoms?

I have:
Pain in side.
feel nauseas
and

last night woke up with a pain in one boobikle only the one though.

I know it is far too early to be symptoms, so can someone tell me to pull myself together please

lucygrif · 01/07/2009 10:27

morning ladies!! can't believe it's JULY!!!

CD11 today, looking forward to the bonnkfest this weekend!!

the sun is shining, for now - forecast is thundery showers after lunch so keeping a beady eye on my washing!

how is everyone else today?

ReneRusso · 01/07/2009 10:32

nunnie, the symptoms sound like they could be ovulation. not sure if could be pg symptoms, does seem a bit early to feel nauseous

Clwc · 01/07/2009 10:42

Nunnie, pull yourself together!

I've still got my period... Is it too early to test?

pme, Men need clear and basic instructions. E.g. Rather than asking, "Will you be home by 2pm?", say, "You will be home by 2pm, otherwise you won't get sex for a month!" Hehe. That way, if he's late, he can apologise until he's blue in the face and still not get any action. And he might even learn for the next time. E.g. "You know what happened last time".

Angelfifi · 01/07/2009 10:44

Keeping an eye on my washing as well lucy decided to strip all beds!! So hoping i will get them dry before the rain comes in!! Good luck for your bonkfest!!! lol! hope its not to hot!!!

Angelfifi · 01/07/2009 10:45

although nunnie you could have twins so thats why you are really sick lol! you never know, does twins run in the family?

proudestmummyever · 01/07/2009 10:51

Hahaha I like yr theory Clwc, think majority of men are the same tbh , but my time for trying just nw, and not really talking soo....

Plus the fact I am still on diazepam, I just dunno what to do

Clwc · 01/07/2009 11:10

pme Perhaps you can relax this month. Take a month off. Enjoy sex when you both want to, rather than at the fertile time. If you keep trying this month, you'll resent him even more and things will get worse between you. I don't doubt he is under a lot of pressure, and is probably also sick of the sight of negative HPTs. Just as you are.

Basically, it's the 'stitch in time' thing. Go and enjoy each other's company away from the bedroom. Even if it's just a pub beer garden for an hour or so. You do have babysitters, don't you?

Men need to 'fix' things. If they can't fix it, they'll ignore it. That's when women get annoyed. Give him something to fix. Even something as simple as giving you a bear hug to make you feel better for a few minutes. He'll feel better too, because he put a smile on your face.

nunnie · 01/07/2009 11:18

My mil was a twin now I really do feel nauseas

Angelfifi · 01/07/2009 11:34

PistachioLemon · 02/07/2009 14:06

Hey nunnie. It's too hot here too.

My stupid brother has gone on a fell walk today and has just texted to say it's taking a bit longer than expected! I'm half expecting to receive a call from mountain rescue at about 2.30pm.

proudestmummyever · 02/07/2009 15:28

ReneRusso · 02/07/2009 19:25

Hi everyone I'm in south east England - it's pretty hot here too. Did you all see this article? Yikes sounds like more bonking is required, better make it a quickie in this heat

PistachioLemon · 02/07/2009 21:39

Yikes indeed!

Brother has still not made it home but I'm assured he's off the mountain. Phew.

Hi all,
How are we? we are not so good this end we have been struck with s&d and so are not doing much with the ttc bit! Which is a real bummer because i'm on my 'fertile' period so don't think much will happen for us this month unless i ov a bit later this month because of the bug - here's hopping!!!
Hows everyone else? anyone waiting to test yet?!?!?!?!

nunnie · 06/07/2009 13:59

What is this thread doing all there way down there, I almost forgot my symptoms looking for it

Symptoms over last few days:

Sicky feeling that gradually eases.
Irritable
gone off coffee (don't fancy any)
diarrhoea
heightened sense of smell.

Think that me lot.

I know its too early as I think this should be a 27 dayer.

I am not that lucky I know

Angelfifi · 06/07/2009 14:20

Oooh! How exciting nunnie fingers crossed for you.

nunnie · 06/07/2009 14:31
