Ok Ladies... new thread, since the old one was getting too long and dragging my computer (and Kat's) down with it!

MrsD - cant believe you are 30 weeks already! So you found that cutting out the lactose helps? It will be almost a week for me and I have noticed some improvement, but not a lot. Of course, he is still getting a milk-based formula supplement to the BFing. I am going to switch to a soy formula and see if it makes a difference as well. Until then... God give me strength!!! LOL

Aargh. I don't know what's happening!

I'm not using OPKs as have never taken more than a few wks to conceive before so have never really taken any notice of ovulation. This month (first month trying) when I thought I was due to ov I was on doxycycline with a sinus inf. However, the following w/e (last w/e) I had mega amounts of EWCM so am assuming it was then that I ov'd.

Sooo rather than testing this w/e as I had anticipated I'm going to leave it until next w/e.

But... I've been so weepy this last day or two. Like proper weepy. I'm not normally one to cry all that easily and have never really experienced anything like it in previous pgs, if it is indeed a symptom!

Anyone else like this? It seems a little early to me but I don't know what else it could be?

That's what I thought you might say!

Perhaps I'll try an early test Monday. If bfn then I'll try again later in the week.

I've been to Wilko to stock up on cheapies so can afford to spare a few!

Good luck to all peeing on sticks.xxxx

Loopy yay! Hope you are feeling well.

Kat, 10 weeks yet? Are you ok with everything? You will be fine hun.xx

omg I am soooooooooo sleep deprived!!!!!!!

KatnKankles · 17/10/2010 23:43

Means :o Sleep deprived here too and Ava is 5 months old :( Little monster doesn't like to sleep but she's sooo cute the rest of the time I can't be mad at her :) How's your little angel doing??

I'm almost 11 weeks means, got an appt with consultant at hospital a week on Monday... which typically is when the kids are off school and I don't want to tell them for a while yet.

Still not 'happy' about it. I never even considered ever having 5 children. Four was always my perfect number but I suppose the oldies will be almost 13 and 15 when this one comes along so I'll 'only' have the 3 littlies.
Feeling ill constantly is not helping either!

Hi Loopy,

It's because I'm having shared care. I have had 2 previous PPHs and I also have grade 3 cervical dysplasia or CIN3 what they look for in smears) for which I am supposed to be having treatment. They agreed to wait until after I'd had Ava as the loop excision can cause cervical weakness but now I'm pregnant again I'm not sure what they'll do.
If it's got any worse I'll be having the treatment as i'm not taking any chances.

Just more stress to add to it all!

hattyyellow · 18/10/2010 10:24

Big hugs all around. Loopy, you will do just fine - you have managed 3 brilliantly so 4 should be a breeze!

Kat, I really hope things work out okay and they can find some way of treating/protecting the bean. 5 may seem a lot but hey you sound like you're doing brilliantly with 4, so it was obviously somehow meant to be!

Means hope you get some rest! Button moon sounds interesting when can you test?

Foghorn welcome! I have also forgotten most of my ttcing info as haven't thought about ttcing since early 08!

Apologies to everyone I have probably forgotten, have only skimmed down so far as am supposed to be at work.

Well nothing exciting from me. . Day 25, don't feel remotely pregnant. Don't think it will ever happen

hattyyellow · 18/10/2010 10:25

Sorry, Loopy, forgot to say what fantastic news that the scan went so well! You must be over the moon :).

pinkclouds · 18/10/2010 15:43

Hatty Me too!! No symptoms at all lol. (apart from exhaustion, but putting this down to one too many glasses of wine last nightGrin)

Still its a bit early I suppose I'm only about 7DPO i think!! Oh well another week to wait.

buttonmoon78 · 19/10/2010 08:34

Tested yesterday am - bfn. So am waiting to test again in a few days.

Other than a spot of weepiness last week I have NO symptoms of any sort - either pg or af!

Ho hum. I am sooo impatient!

pinkclouds · 19/10/2010 18:06

Well still nothing interesting here, and have been so busy that symptom spotting has gone out the window.Smile

On the other hand my friend who has been ttc for 3 years got a BFP after being told at a consultation app last week she wasn't!! The one today said 5 weeks can't believe they missed it.Confused

So pleased for her and makes me feel better that if and when I am pg, I can tell her without that horrible guilty feelingGrin

hattyyellow · 20/10/2010 10:00

Pink what lovely news for your friend! I love happy stories like that.

Buttonmoon do you think there's still a chance for you this month even if BFN - did you test particulary early?

I have what feels like horrendous PMT so I think I'm probably out this month..

buttonmoon78 · 20/10/2010 14:33

Grin yes - v particularly early! Well, at least, it's early given when I think I ovulated but late given normal af due date.

Confused

Day 28. No AF as yet.

One day of PMT type feelings this week, apart from that none of the normal PMS signs.

Can't bring myself to test - as I remember ttcing DD3 this happened one cycle and AF still arrived.

.

pinkclouds · 21/10/2010 14:35

Good luck Hatty it's so exciting.

Well I have no PMT or Pregnant feelings either way! I think I am 10 DPO, I have come to the conclusion that if AF arrives on time this will be as good as being pg Hmm, cause then at least I know where I am and that I have had no side effects from the pill.

hattyyellow · 21/10/2010 17:16

When is AF due pink? I like your positive thinking. I am trying to remind myself of my concerns about having a newborn at the start of the school holidays to let myself down gently if AF appears!

Wish it would just start if it's going to! Finding it very hard to concentrate but can't quite face testing until more overdue than a few hours!!

pinkclouds · 21/10/2010 22:46

hatty due on Monday (at a guess) this is going on EWCM and a nearly +OPK!!. If I go on my withdrawal bleed then it should be here by now.Confused

I some ways really want AF to get here so I know where I am starting from.

Hatty Come on test alreadyGrin!!!!

I can't stand the wait, really need to stop over-thinking everythingHmm
