I too have bunged up nose, and have had it since last thursday. Is it really a sign? (ohhhh this unleases new obsessive symptom spotting in emmalou83). If you dont mind, Im going to join in with the end of week test, as now getting very late on AF. I'm feeling very unpregnant with the nose of mine, but with no AF symptom, I feel that one last test would be wise.

aly323 · 07/09/2009 17:07

My fingers are crossed for all of you testing. I should be coming due to test, but it seems that something threw me off this month. I haven't been on lately because we've had a very sick dog and had to spend loads of time moving between vets, hospitals and home. In the end (and after loads of money) he didn't make it. It was very tough and somewhat traumatic. This all happened around what should have been ovulation time, however, there has been no ov. It could be the stress, or, it could be that I started taking 50 mg of B6 this month. I'm kicking myself that I might have messed it up with the B6. Since coming off the bcp three months ago, I've been very regular. This month is not fun.

I had big hopes for this month. Now I've pretty much written it off. Anyone else had delayed ov due to stress or B6?

CurlyCasper · 07/09/2009 18:44

Bunged up noses all round! I actually feel fine with mine - that's why I thought it might be a symptom (that and it being very bloody). I googled and found it does tend to happen, but more in late pregnancy, because of swelling blood vessels or something. Hopefully it's a sign . Thanks for the good luck and feel well messages though. you're a lovely bunch! Hope those who are truly bunged feel better soon. I don't feel bad enough to deserve sympathy.

so me, kkas, pepper, spirael and emmalou it is. It's nice to know I won't be alone - and that we have the support of the others too.

fulham you naughty girl! Hope the bit of rest was all you needed to seal the deal though

aly I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. It can be so painful, I've been there a few times and really feel for you. Fingers crossed a good result will emerge from what's been an awful month.

claireinthecommunity · 07/09/2009 19:18

Evening all

So, it's five to test now at the end of the week! - good luck to you too Ladyemmalou83

Oooh fulham, once that baby bug gets you it never leaves! Nice to have you back (fully frolicking)

aly so sorry to hear about your dog, I don't have any experience of B6 but have read that stress can interfere with your cycle. Hope you're feeling ok.

Well, I'm approaching my fertile time and we all know what that means...

CurlyCasper · 07/09/2009 20:33

we sure do claire have fun!

Ozziegirly · 08/09/2009 01:20

aly I'm really sorry to hear about your dog, poor thing, it must have been a horrible time for you.

Good luck over the next few days claire.

And good luck to all you testers this weekend. DH and I are going to Melbourne this weekend for a golf/spa weekend so I won't be around to catch up on all the lovely BFPs (positive thinking). I'm sure we're due for some more!

ImmaterialGirl · 08/09/2009 09:12

Morning all,

aly I'm so sorry about your dog. I've been through the same, and it's just horrible. Try not to worry about this month and just take it easy. Next month will be here before you know it!

fulham nice to hear you're back in business! Cheeky

claire sounds like you're in for a good few days

ozzie enjoy the weekend break! Sounds wonderful!

and for the five testers -I've got my fingers firmly crossed for all of you, and will be eagerly waiting

Morning girls.

Haha claire u made me laugh this morning DH is gonna be going into work with lots of smiles on his face over the next few weeks then. Good luck hun.

Aly- Hun im so sorry to hear about your dog its so sad losing a pet its like losing such a close family member. Sorry!! !!
Fingers crossed though the stress side hasent affected you to badly however if it has next month your be so much more relaxed will be a much better time for you both.

Curly- When u testing hun? My fingers are all crossed for you. I know we are naughty cause we have just booked a cruise for next July as well we wont be able to go if I concieve now but your so right after start trying its very hard to stop.

Good luck again guys im so excited about hearing your outcomes.

xxxxxxxxxxxx

pepperonipizza · 08/09/2009 09:53

Morning all.

Aly, I'm sorry to hear your bad news too, I hope you feel okay. I have been taking 50 mg of B6 for the past few days (5 or 6), but after I'd ovulated. Haven't heard that it could delay ov, but anything's possible.... hope it sorts itself out soon for you.

Nothing to report today from me - just keeping myself busy and trying not to think too hard about possible symptoms!!

kkas · 08/09/2009 09:56

aly sorry to hear about your loss. you are in our thoughts.

fulham glad to hear you're back in it and booking a holiday sounds like a fool-proof way to get pg! might try that next month.

ozzie hope you have a great, relaxing weekend away.

claire you go girl! and thanks for the advice re testing. hadn't thought of it that way before. think i will just go for it thurs/fri and see what happens. i want to test now! but am going to be good and at least wait until thurs. but anway, i have felt very crampy the last few days. so i think af's on her way.....

good luck to all the rest of us testers!!!!!!

fulhamgirl · 08/09/2009 10:59

Heya KKAS. Well lol my brother is going to be so annoyed with me if I do fall between now and xmas as him and his gf wont be able to go on the cruise either as you have to be in a room with people over the age of 21 so he wont be a happy uncle for a while lol!!!
Im sure there are ways around it though!
Yea book a holiday then your kinda thinking well I have got a holiday so if I dont fall this month should put it on hold and then you just cant lol!!

Imma- I dunno what happened we were being sooooo good and then over the last week and a half !!!
How are things going with you though hun? Your my cycle buddy cant believe we cycled same day!! Not long to test again now though time goes so quick!!

So when is everyone testing thats near now? So much luck being sent your way!!

xxxxxxxxx

CurlyCasper · 08/09/2009 13:21

Oh testing chums, please don't fall in to my silly trap. DH convinced me to test early this morning and it was, of course, a BFN I left the CBD on the side for him to see when he got up. Funnily enough, he didn't mention it when he rang earlier.

Next step - ebay cheapies from Friday. Saving the other CBD. But beggining tp expect period to arrive...

good luck all!

CurlyCasper · 08/09/2009 13:22

oops bad typing - you can tell I'm trying to do this without being noticed by a colleague!

Ladyemmalou83 · 08/09/2009 13:39

oh the joy of being on mumsnet whilst at work. My company has just introduced a new internet policy, I get shot everytime I check something I shouldnt. But they havent banned MN yet, possibly because they just dont know about it.

Its so hard to not test early, especially with some tests promising early positives. Sorry u didnt get the result you wanted, fingers crossed it was just too early, and this time next week ur posting a BFP

fulhamgirl · 08/09/2009 13:41

Awww curly there is still a chance!! I think you might have tested to early so many people get BFN if they early. I know how tempting it is though last month I done bout 4 tests lol thats y we decided to put it on hold as I got like so paranoid over it all not relising my AF was on the way and youve got to be really lucky to concieve straight away!!
At least u can relax now though I know its such a horrible feeling and DH is probley feeling it as well in fact I know DH will be!!
Chin up chick there's one good way of looking at it............ the trying

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

CurlyCasper · 08/09/2009 14:08

thanks ful. I know that having tested way too early, I could well get a BFP this month. But I just don't feel pregnant.

I'm struggling to find symptoms to stress obsess think about.

I've always got bad skin, irregular bowels and moods , and I'm really tired because I came off my meds. At the same time I never feel much in my breasts or get forwarning of AF beyond an hour or two. Add to that my complete failure to detect anything close to a BBT or CM pattern, or to get a +ve Ov test, this month, and I've got very little to work with here. Can't a girl get a little something to be going on with?! I'm so jealous of people with symptoms - however "wrong" they may be!

Sorry, that was a bit me, me, me

A cruise, huh? That sounds exciting. I love the new, carefree attitude fulham! emmalou I think MN isn't on bosses' radar yet, even though it's more addictive than FB and other sites. Anyway, this is my (late) lunch break, so I'm free to do it. Just don't want anyone reading over my shoulder.

Congrats to my testing buddies for staying strong. Sticks at the ready this weekend!

fulhamgirl · 08/09/2009 14:42

Lol wish I was carefree really deep down im so wanna have concieved this month its a bonus as we did say we were putting it on hold!!

The cruise though im really looking forward to it tbh so either way im happy but I think deep down u guys know what im really hoping for and think my OH is as well seeing as we were being careful to not being careful I think his attidtude is if im not going on about it it will happen.

Between us girls I think my OH is really wanting a baby he dont say that to me but u know when we can just tell.

I am nervous again though now im getting near the end of my cycle.

Boobs are starting to hurt again!! But were so sore just before AF arrived as well last month.

Lol curly about your moods as my BF says he cant tell the differece with me as I mood 24/7, 7 days a week every week lol!!

Morning girls!!

All u testers have u got any news?

Im so excited for you all.

kkas · 09/09/2009 08:53

Morning all

Day 28 for me today and I was tempted to test this morning, but have decided to wait until tomorrow. No real symptoms except a migraine headache yesterday night/this morning. But I get those anyway. I am really scared to test because I don't want to see that BFN. It would almost be easier if AF would just come, if you know what I mean?

But the cramps seem to have gone away so am really not sure what is going on, tbh.

Anyone else test today?

pepperonipizza · 09/09/2009 10:08

Morning!

I'm umming and ahhing between testing Fri or Sat (assuming my period doesn't arrive before then or course!). Friday will only be 11 DPO, I'm thinking that may be too early to see anything even if I was pg (fingers and toes firmly crossed!). Will see how I get on....

Good luck for the rest of you testing, I am impressed with the willpower (apart from Curly ).

pepperonipizza · 09/09/2009 10:13

Curly, just re-read my post - hope that doesn't sound insensitive, I was only teasing. I have my fingers and toes crossed firmly for you too (and all us testers), there is still plenty of time for a BFP.

CurlyCasper · 09/09/2009 11:14

don't worry pep, I did manage a massive willpower failure after all. I do still blame DH who bullied talked lightly nudged me into it.

I'm no tempted to go in the other direction and wait for AF/next week.

Good luck all

CurlyCasper · 09/09/2009 11:14

now tempted [doh! emoticon]

ImmaterialGirl · 09/09/2009 17:24

Curly you naughty girl!
Sorry it was bfn though but it was very early so hope is definitely not lost!

Not much to report here. Boring 2WW, 5dpo, and not particularly hopeful for this month anyway considering the whole delayed train and conference shenanigans.

You girls testing this weekend are all going to have to get bfp's to cheer me up and make things more exciting!
