January TTC-ers

[Mrs.Gj]

Constipation is a sign of pregnancy. Or you also just might need more veggies

 

[disney516]

Thanks Mrs. GJ ... FX this is my month!!

Casey - CANT WAIT LITERALLY CANT WAIT FOR YOU TESTING TOMORROW!!! AHHH
Any other symptoms?!?

MummyKP - Sorry for your funny belly but maybe its a good sign...!! fX!! Did you mean you were testing THIS Saturday possibly or NEXT? Sorry I am getting excited!!

Bubble - Sorry also for your funny stomach! I hope it gets better, unless its a sign lol. FX AF doesn't show up!! Cant wait to see your tests this weekend!! FX FX FX!!!

 

[MummyKP]

Yeah I've heard its a sign. I'm a healthy eater and never suffered with this so it's horrible!! I've been up most of the night with cramping, wish I could take my hot water bottle to work! I've had back ache through the night too, most of the time just an ache but then I get random shooting pains in my back too. I feel sick this morning but I think it's because I've hd such little sleep and this horrible belly pain!

No a week Saturday unfortunately seems ages away!! I just hope the week flies by! Everyone seems to be testing this weekend or the start of next week but I'm waiting until the end of next week I'm on cd22 today and normally have a 30 day cycle (sometimes 29, sometimes 31 lol)

 

[BubbleOnBoard]

Well I have spotting today and I can't help but feel this is the start of AF. ��

 

[MummyKP]

Bubbleonboard could it be IB?

 

[BubbleOnBoard]

I always spot a few days before AF and this seems no different. So I think I'm out, atleast that's the mind set im going to stay in unless I don't come on. Don't want to think too much into it being anything else and get my hopes up xx

 

[MummyKP]

Oh I hope it's not AF for you, keep us posted! Will keep everything crossed for you

 

[Mrs.Gj]

So sorry Bubbles. I hope it's not hun but I do understand not wanting to get your hopes up.

Hugs...

 

[MummyKP]

Could I get some opinions on my symptoms please ladies?

I've had horrendous cramps for the past 24 hours, kept me up most of the night and constantly need a hot water bottle on my belly to try ease it. Almost like AF cramps, but I don't suffer with them very often and certainly not 9 days before AF is due. I've been so moody today it's unbelievable lol my poor class, no one likes a miserable teacher, especially 30 4 year olds lol I've got back ache too. Woke up feeling slight nausea but not sure if it was from lack of sleep. I'm only 6dpo (roughly - if I O'd when my apps suggested) so I'm not expecting a huge amount of symptoms yet but my god these cramps are horrible! I've also had a mixture of EWCM and watery cm the past 4 days or so which I don't normally have.

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Does your nausea kind of feel like you drank to much the night before? That's how mine is which is why I ask. Cramps this early could be a good sign, I had cramps 1 week from O. I personally wouldn't put hot water or a heating pad on your tummy, if you are pg, that is very bad for bub. (Trust me I know it sucks as that my go to natural pain reliever for cramps that I'm having to do without) Moodiness and back ache can also be symptoms. I have no clue about the cm though. That seems to be non definitive one way or the other.

Fx they mean something positive is on the way!

 

[Mrs.Gj]

Also Casey... You never posted an update about your test. Did you take it?

 

[MummyKP]

Tbh I just woke up with the nausea this morning after only 5 hours sleep and it eased after I'd eaten, I do think that was down to such little sleep rather than a pg symptom. But it's good to know that that's how yours feels so I know for future thank you!

Oh ok, I'll stop with the water bottle then in case, I didn't realise! It's the only thing that has eased the pain for me (slightly lol). It's not as bad ATM....still aware of it but not as bad as last night. I'm feeling really bloated and full too, odd! I really hate waiting, I have no patience at all, I just hope the next week flies by so whether AF turns up or not we can either start again or get excited about a BFP! Thanks Mrs Gj, hope you're feeling well x

 

[Mrs.Gj]

You're welcome! Today is a low symptom day for me. Mild morning sickness and tired. Other than that I feel mostly normal today

I'm sure these days will get less and less as I approach 6 weeks but that's ok.

 

[MummyKP]

I guess the symptoms are nicer when you know it's for a good reason and know there's a bubba there

I don't know if this is a sign or not but last night we DTD and I wasn't sore, but it was uncomfortable and had like a sharp pain....I've never had that before, was very weird!

 

[Lozzielaula]

So sorry Bubbles

MummyKP your symptoms sound promising to me, I'm hoping you'll get a great big BFP when you test

I am so so nervous about testing tomorrow! I still have the dull pressure, and feeling so so tired and now a bit emotional, but I know I get emotional on the run up to AF. Urgh it's so annoying that almost all of my symptoms could also be AF or coming off bc symptoms, I just dont know what to think!

xx

 

[MummyKP]

Lozzie I don't know why I just have a good feeling about you testing lol I feel like you will get your BFP. Maybe it's because I know so many others that have caught first month off bc. But I can understand why you're so nervous, I would be too!! I can't wait to hear from you, will be checking bnb first thing haha good luck lovely, will be thinking about you! You've had fab symptoms so I'll keep everything crossed for you.

Thank you, I'm not so sure myself. Sometime I think I could be from these symptoms but I also feel like I'm out & won't get one this month. We've bd every other day so if we don't I know i will think of the worst! Lol. Such a negative worry pants!! This time next week I will feel nervous like you do ATM.

Gl lovely, thinking of you x

Well guys........ I tested and got my !!!!!!! I can't believe it. I'm in shock and feel incredibly lucky. I took one at 7am and another at 345. Both BFPs. I don't think its really hit me yet. My 1st appt is not until Feb 17th. I wish it was sooner because as much I know how accurate home tests are, Id really like a blood test to confirm it.

When are you due?

If it's October- there is an October due date thread I can find again and link for you.

For either Sept or Oct:
If you are on Facebook, there are secret due date groups (not able to be searched for, only way to get in is to friend a current member and get an invite. Friends and family can NOT see you joined group or anything you post) I'm a member of both so if you'd like to do that, I can help you.
