Mid-August Testers

[CHDickey]

Hands you sound just like me!! I am thinking about you!! I am cd7 and well just doing what we normally do no pressure!

Go to the doctor next week! Fingers crossed everything comes back ok!!

 

[InHisHands]

wow CH you get to baby dance in less than a week. How cool. What do the doctors plan on doing during your visit?

 

[CHDickey]

Well it's for my annual, so I will get that done and also ask some questions about hormone levels etc!

 

[InHisHands]

Well im still "spotting" Im not even sure if i should consider it spotting. It never touches my underwear .. and is bearly noticeable... more just like just a touch of brown mixed in with my cm.

I know i got a postive Ovulation test on CD 19... but maybe i didnt actually ovulate for a day after that or so... which would throw my cycle off for another day or two and explain the spotting...
OR
Since i have a cold... i bet she's just delayed a few days.. i've heard that is quite common.

I don't think im pregnant. I have no symptoms. Im not tired, not moody (really happy if anything), my nipples aren't sore anymore, and besides some cramping and throbbing pains near the ovaries.. i really have nothing to go on. *shrugs*

Hands - If it makes you feel better - I am pregnant and I have nothing to go by and no symptoms!! I still don't think your out yet! Keep that PMA girl!! I know, I know - my baby looks like an ear. And I totally LOL when I read your comment!! When I saw it yesterday - I was like ewww!! I have to look at that ugly picture for a week!!

Bex - Get it girl! I have seen lots of girls on here get BFP again after a MC.

Nic - Thanks for letting me know you didn't feel anything for 2 weeks. I got another week to go to hopefully feel something.

CH - I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to ask some questions, right??!!

Mrs Bea - HI!!!

 

[InHisHands]

Nic - post soon we miss you.

Mrs. Bea - have you done any baby buying yet?

CH - I really hope this month is it for you.

Bex - Just keep trying. That's all any of us can do.

Snow - Thanks I'm sure your baby will grow into its ear.. someday. lol And i agree, can't wait till your picture changes. BTW I'm trying to not have PMA so i dont get upset when she does come.


I know i told everyone i would test tomorrow if she didnt come... but if she doesnt show up by tomorrow, i think i would be too scared to test and see a BFN. *sighs* She'll probably show up today.

 

[MrsBea23]

Hi Everyone,

Hands - Sorry you still don't know one way or the other yet, I really hope it is a BFP for you.

Snowflake - Honestly don't worry about the lack of symptoms I have had none at all really and have been so stressed about it but wish now I could of just relaxed and enjoyed to lack of symptoms lol. There is always something to stress about though i had a LETZ a few years ago and I just found out this can cause an incompetent cervix so that is the thing I am stressed about at the moment lol.

CH - CD8 today time to get bd'ing if you are going to do SMEP this month woo hoo.

Bex - Imagine what a nice surprise it will be for DH if you do get a BFP he he, fx'd you get it soon.

Nic - I am doing well today been off work all week sick and today is the 1st day I have felt human again so wrapped with that. How are you getting on? Are you going to get a private scan or just wait until your 12 week one?

So I for some reason decided to look back to the start of this thread and there are quite a few girls that started on this thread and have since got BFP's so this really is quite a lucky thread really. It was quite fun reading all my posts before my BFP.

Although I did notice that Newbie lisette who was with us for a long time and even when she got her BFP had a MMC at 9 weeks the poor thing I hope she is ok.

 

[MrsBea23]

oops hands you posted while I was writing, I really hope she doesn't turn up today hun fx'd for you truly.

I haven't bought anything yet but think I will start soon, i will at least start sorting out the nursery and getting the new blinds and things soon.

Hello lovelies!

Hands - I saw a lot of BFN's before I got that BFP. It's just practice for the real thing! Also when I tested and got a BFN I found it lot less stressful than rushing to the bathroom every ten minutes to check for AF. Bizarrely I think they kept me calm. Yes I was sad, but after 3 of them I just started taking it in my stride. You know one day you'll poas and it will give you the answer you are looking for!

I know what you are saying about pma, but I do think it makes you feel better. You do sound much more positive. You don't have to think 'I am definitely pregnant', but I do believe that thinking 'I still stand a chance'. If AF does show then you have lots to be positive about. You are finished with a squiffy cycle, you are no longer in limbo and you get to try again. When I didn't get my BFP and hope was fading, that was the bit that upset me. I could cope with not being pregnant, but I couldn't handle not being able to try.

Snow - Glad I've reassured you. You'll be moaning in two weeks that you are suffering! If you do get ms then try to eat something as soon as you can in the morning. Don't wait to feel hungry or sick. Also I find having a drink by the bed at night and carrying a bottle of water or diluted squash with me to sip as and when helps stop my stomach from getting too empty.

CH - Yippee for baby dancing! Enjoy.

Bex - Wishing you a very speedy BFP too. I would love for us all to be bump buddies together.

Mrs Bea - I did the same and wrote over you! I'm trying to hide my typing while I'm working (oops) and it takes an age to do a msg surreptiously! He he!

I am having an early scan on the NHS with the Early Pregnancy Unit. Since the difference in our two dates is pretty big they agreed it would make sense for me to have one. I'm so glad they agreed. I feel like I did a lot of waiting already, and waiting until 12 weeks seemed too long for me. I only have 43 hours to wait now. Eek!

 

[MrsBea23]

ooh that is exciting nic you get to see the bean wee hee.

 

[Srbjbex]

Ooo ladies we have been chatty on here today - I like it

Nic - sooo exciting about your scan - will you finally get and EDD then?? Cant wait to hear how you get on.

Bea - lovely to hear from you, if I was you, I would be really impatient and just want to finish work already!! Have you told your boss that you are expecting? I had always thought I would wait the full 12 weeks before saying anything, but I let him know when I have my mc (and he was really lovely about it) so now I guess he knows that I am TTC anyway so will be expecting the news at some point.

Today I had a meeting and the director who was leading the meeting (who is lovely and who I really get on with) is 7 months pregnant, and a lady who also used to work on that client is currently off on maternity leave. And there was a big joke in the meeting how there must be something about people who work on *client*, always getting pg - It made me so sad. I know I'm going to come across this all the time, but at that moment I just want to say "And I'm pregnant too!!"

Hands - completely understand you not wanting to get your hopes up, its so heartbreaking, but I KNOW you will get there one day when the time is right. Could be this cycle, could be next, but I know me, you and CH are not far behind.

I have seen a few of Lisette's posts over in the miscarriage forums. It's really sad news, I hope she is ok, and has found lots of lovely people to send her hugs and love like you guys have all done for me on here!

Love to you all

 

[InHisHands]

Well... im home from work. AF didnt show up *shrugs* Maybe tonight. -- I wonder how long a cold can delay AF.

Im 15dpo today. Normally my LP is 13-15 days ... though last month i had 3 positive Ovulation tests.. so my LP could have been 15-17... which means i guess she could show up in two days from now and im just off.

Hubby keeps looking in the trash can for tampons. AND he thinks Im the WEIRD one.

 

[NotNic]

Hands that's so funny! I love how on board you husband is with TTCing. That's really fab you can share things. My husband was / is a bit clueless about TTC and pregnancy. In general he is a bit clueless! For the UK girls I just had a conversation with hubby that was like watching an episode of TOWIE. He asked me if it was winter yet, and I said not yet. To which he responded "so we're in Spring then?". He is 31 and went to uni!!

Bex I'm so glad that we are able to support you. I'm always sending my love and happy thoughts to you. I'm here whenever you need me.

Really wishing it was Thursday night so I have only one more sleep to wait. Fingers crossed all is good and healthy. I can't wait to have an EDD and get to find out which fruit I am!

Off to bed now. Sweet dreams everyone and lots of sticky babydust to everyone. Xxx

 

[InHisHands]

I am so excited for your scan Nic.. you will have to tell us all about it

 

[InHisHands]

Wanted to update you ladies. This morning i had some really watery CM with brown in it and so i didn't want to test. I debated it... my boobs don't hurt and etc but whats throwing out a few dollars to test?

My BFP line came up before the control line! Nice and DARK PINK!!!! No evap line.. a solid dark pink line. I just started crying immediately. And the first question that came to my mind was "Does this mean i am pregnant?" LOL it is just so unreal.

It has been a little bean this whole time that has made me into a snot factory. Gonna to set up a doc appointment.

 

[Srbjbex]

HANDS!!!!! that is amazing news!!!! your doc was right after all!!!

Huge huge congratulations!!!!!!!!!1

 

[InHisHands]

Thought you guys would want to see.

 

[NotNic]

Hooray!!! I am so (excuse the swearing!) bloody excited for you Hands!!!! I have been wishing and hoping this was it for you and I have had a feeling that this was coming. Your lines look just like mine did. No doubting them at all!!

Ah, I am honestly over the moon for you. xxx

 

[NotNic]

I am so excited, that I have a stupid grin on my face and I'm kind of dancing in my seat!
