thanks Immaterial am actually quite chilled about it, probably because I have had no cramps and it hasn't been as bad as I expected.

Can't wait to hear if you have any news for us coming up by the end of the week!

zippys · 14/09/2009 11:46

I think I need help! After my post this morning saying I am going to hold off until the end of the week to test I really really want to go buy a test today!!

I have no symptoms and other than my weird pains have no reason to believe that this is the month but I still really really want to go test

Someone please convince me to hold off!!

zippys · 14/09/2009 11:47

sorry forgot to say hi pixiestix

ImmaterialGirl · 14/09/2009 12:06

Hi zippys
It would be a little hypocritical of me to tell you to hold off considering my own poas addiction
I'll probably test in two days or something silly like that...

Do make sure you have the cheapies though, so you don't ruin yourself buying Clearblues!

Or was that not the answer you were after...

OP posts:
zippys · 14/09/2009 12:15

I think that sounds like a good compromise! Maybe if I aim for Thurs and by then I should have a good idea if AF is on its way.

I know once I start I wont be able to stop and from the first day I test that will be it until AF arrives!!

To be honest dont really want to buy a test at lunch as people from work may spot me (work in a very small town).

Thanks for the advice, do you think there will be a POAS A (POAS anonomous!) As I think I should attend!!

sevans · 14/09/2009 22:26

Wow! I'm just now reading the new posts and so happy to see that we got two graduates over the weekend! Big congrats to Pepperonipizza and Spirael!!! Hopefully soon we will all be graduates

ImmaterialGirl · 14/09/2009 23:04

I will happily join POAS anonymous

Hope all is well with you sevans any news?

Welcome pixie. Always nice to have new faces.

I would test earlier if I felt a bit more pregnant.

The only vague "symptom" I have, and I may even be totally imagining it, is that my boobs feel kind of "full". Not tender or anything, just a bit big. But to be fair, I haven't been to the gym in a week because of this damn cold, and have also been eating sandwiches for lunch everyday instead of my healthy soup, so it may just be that I've put on a couple of pounds...

Also, my cycle is only 26/27 days, so there's not a lot of point me testing earlier really.

I would love to be Pg now, as my parents and DH's parents are coming over in Nov/Dec and it would be so nice to have good news for them!

zippys · 15/09/2009 08:23

Morning everyone,

I know how you are feeling Ozzie I keep thinking should I test but then I dont feel pregnant either, keeping looking and poking boobs but they were huge before and still huge!!

It would be so lovely to be able to tell your parents when they come over, I really hope you get your BFP before then.

I cant stop thinking about testing, I keep weighing up in my head, if I am and it dectects it early then it will be amazing but if I start now I will want to test every day! I couldnt sleep last night thinking about it!

I am determined to try to hold out until the weekend (AF due on Friday) but we shall see.

Ozziegirly · 15/09/2009 08:36

Let's be strong together!

The thing I want to avoid is testing and then being excited and then AF arriving anyway, and it turning out to be a chemical pregnancy, but my hopes have been raised!

I don't think I am though. I haven't had any nausea, weird taste in the mouth, nothing at all.

I have been trying to jiggle my boobs a bit today (in the privacy of my office) to see if they are tender, but they really aren't. I think I just need to hit the gym...

zippys · 15/09/2009 08:49

I am the same have had no nausea or anything

I know what you mean about a chemical pregnancy, right I am now even more determined to hold off to until the weekend, even it if it is hell trying!

Just been jiggling myself (oh that does sound wrong!! ) again in privacy and nipples slightly tender but the last few months I have had really tender boobs at this point and still BFN.

Good luck holding out, when are you going to test?

fulhamgirl · 15/09/2009 09:31

morning everyoneomg-congrates to all of you that have a BFP thats such good news im so happy for you all. Upwards on Onwards now in your journeys wishing u all the best of luck.

welcome to all new people that have joined.
Good luck to you all as well everyone is really suportive in here so I hope you find the support to help answer any questions you may have. And for us to try and convince you not to test to early lol!! Even though im no help there and by the sounds of it nor is Imma either lol!!.

Well my symtoms are that I do have nausea but I suffer from that anyone near my Af arrival strange really!! I have bad pains in tummy and very white thick discharge sorry girls. My boobs are aore but there again they were very sore and tender throughout AF last month as well so apart from the weired tummy pains and white discahrge there is not really much difference in the symtoms.
I just hope I do not have an infection going to have some samples taken by the nurse on thursday.

Has anyone experience anything simular?

Hey imma
when are you going to test? Im not to sure when to test TBH with you. I think I may have a longer cycle than you. Might try and hold out until Sunday but we will see lol.

Hey ozzie How long are your going to old out for? lol we are so bad I wanna test now how bad is that. Its the hardest thing trying to hold out it really is.

Heya zippy- Im glad your jiggling away lol in your privacy of your office.
When is your AF due? Its so annoying about these symtoms but deep down I really dont think we get any symtoms so early on its on in our heads so I really wouldnt worry about looking for symtoms the biggest clue is a missed period. I know a few people now who didnt have any symtoms for at least 6 weeks. The boobs were the biggest symptom but that was at least into the first 5 days of being late.

Good luck all again. Your help is much needed!! Thank you
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

CurlyCasper · 15/09/2009 09:39

that's encouraging ful as I have sod all symptoms but no period! Do have thick white discharge though my first cycle off pill was 35 days and I'm currently on day 33. I keep giving in and testing, but on the chem preg front, I suppose it would be best to just wait. Must try harder!

Be strong girls - although I do want to see those BFPs soon!

fulhamgirl · 15/09/2009 09:50

Morning Curly.

Thanks hun think mine is around 35 days as well so better hold off the testing for a while.
I have the nausea on and off but I got that as well last month so im wondering if it is in my head. Dont have period pains but weired tummy pains. The discahrge the doctor said to me could be a number of things including pregnancy but he cant be sure which is why I need to have the internal done incase its an infection.

Fingers crossed though. What tests are you using Curly? When did u start testing?

xxxxxxxxxxx

CurlyCasper · 15/09/2009 09:59

started a week ago, thanks to DH persuading me, based on four days before AF would be due on a 28 day cycle (as per last month, monthe before was 35). CBD can get a four day early result in some women, so gave it a bosh. Neg of course.

Then every few days with cheap ebay sticks (the kind the doctor uses). Then, on Saturday I used the other CBD - "NOT PREGNANT".

Another cheap stick neg today. Might get some new tests while out today, but really should hold off. A result this early could be a chemical pregnancy anyway. The best approach is just to leave it for weeks after AF missed I suppose, but that requires willpower, which I sadly lack

kkas · 15/09/2009 10:22

fulhamgirl · 15/09/2009 10:22

Wel tbh with you u sound just like me its so hard to hold off when u know deep down there is a big posibilty that you are pregnant and its really hard not to test sometimes even twice a day lol!!

Yes a chemical pregnancy could trigger a false result have to be careful.

I understand what your going through last month I was like that testing every day and get when a negative came through so I understad your fustration. Unfortunaly when you come off of the pill your cycle is so mucked up one month you have a 35 day cycle then a 40 day cycle etc etc so u never know!!

I lack Willpower as well I wanna test today but only being on cd 24 prob well to early!! Night get the one that can test up2 6 days early but dont want to waste money!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

zippys · 15/09/2009 10:28

Hi fullamgirl, thanks for encouragement, it is so important when we cant talk to people in RL about it!

AF is due on Friday so trying so hard to hold out till the weekend. Maybe TMI but I have had increased CM this month towards the back end of this cycle, so hopefully that is a good sign

Lets hope that the weird tummy pains are implantation (I am hoping I had those just over a week ago) and your discharge is also good news

Back to boobs, I think I am getting obsessed keep looking down and thinking - are they bigger? They are already a 32GG so got know what they will get to in pregnancy - although my dp is looking forward to that side effect - lol

Curly fingers crossed the next test will show BFP, it is so frustrating have a long cycle as it seems to take so long!!

fulhamgirl · 15/09/2009 10:54

Heya guys really sorry to ask this me again lol!!

I keep getting flutters in the right side of my tummy/hip!! Could this be a sign? I might take a test early if it is its a very weried feeling lol!!

Ive googled it and again could be a number of things!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

zippys · 15/09/2009 11:22

Dont apologise, its what we are here for.

Dont want to get your hopes up but I have heard a few people on here have had this and then BFP. Good luck

fulhamgirl · 15/09/2009 11:31

Zippys thank you fpr that!! I supose when u spot new signs when your ttc it either worries you all gives u a false sence that u could be pregnent = phantom pregnancy. So really dont wanna get into that!!

Thing y I am worrying is back in April I feel pregnant and In june I had heavy bleeding which addmitted me to hospital with bad pain in my side. Wasnt confirmed but doctor signed me off of work as a miscarriage so I was devisated.

I just keep believe I just missed a period for a month and had bad AF!!

I have never missed a period in my life so wasvery concerned!! These pains now feel like good pains though I just worry now after passed experience!!

Thank you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ImmaterialGirl · 15/09/2009 11:38

fulham fluttering could be a good sign, you never know! Do you have cheapie tests lying around so you don't ruin yourself testing on Clearblues?

And I'm totally with you all on the boob jiggling. DP has even noticed it a few times, I'm constantly feeling myself up these days

I'm going away tomorrow eve for a long weekend, back Monday, and wondering whether or not to throw in a test tomorrow morning. Not that I expect much from it, it'll be CD25, but just in case (as I'm expecting it to be a rather boozy weekend...)

I guess I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
