new to this 2ww thing - 1dpo (I think) 3rd September

[CamoQueen]

Lol, I've convinced myself this afternoon I'm not PG, but I'm going to console myself by pigging out on Parma ham!!

Camoqueen, I read that sushi was fine while pregnant as long as it wasn't raw tuna.. apparently the smoking process for salmon makes it safe?? - Not that I eat anything other than the veggie stuff anyway, I hate raw fish!

Wow, really, I didn't know that! How funny, I had such serious sushi cravings when PG with DS, probably because I couldn't have it.

At any rate, I am going to feast on raw cookie dough when/if I get AF, and margaritas, and anything else that comes near my vaccuum of a mouth, lol. And I'm with you on the pigging out. I had that big ol' hot chocolate this afternoon, and had absolutely no guilt! I hope that ham is delish!

glad to hear you enjoyed your hot choccy CamoQueen

I'm ordering the pregnancy tests today, but not entirely sure there's any point I don't wanna sound melodramatic, but all my symptoms have disappeared, gone, kaput. I feel absolutely nothing this morning

Yesterday I had an achey tum and back, sore left bb, lots of cm, but today .................................

7dpo today, so it's getting nearer, but now my symptoms have gone, I kinda feel like I'm out for this month.

So your sore boobs have gone? Mine are still the same, left one is still worse.

No symptoms can be a symptom hun tho so your not out yet!!

Em, my symptoms keep dissapearing too, hang in there!

My bbs are still tender and I woke with a strange pulling sensation in my left side thsi morning so I'm hoping I'm still in, but if we're not... there's always next month and who knows, maybe we'll get twice the prize for being patient!!

 

[EmmyReece]

I just had a twinge in my belly button area, and can see more veins on my bbs, plus the left one has started aching again, and I can't decide if I feel sick or hungry Maybe I just needed some time to wake up

 

[EmmyReece]

my tummy is making funny noises at me, am going to try and shut it up with a yoghurt

I have had the exact same thing this morning with the pulling on the left?! Really strange hard to describe type of thing?!

It is hard to describe, it's developed into a kind of burning sensation for me, not exactly painful, but uncomfortable... I really hope it's implantation pains!

 

[EmmyReece]

Keeping everything crossed for you

I keep having really weird dreams. I keep dreaming that I am pregnant, and that we're in London doing shopping. I hope it's one of those deja vu dreams, how cool would that be?

 

[4magpies]

Yeah sort of like that, had it for about 30 mins/1 hour....

I am quite late for implantation though arent I at 9DPO?

Not really, they say a week to 10 days so it's still possible!

 

[EmmyReece]

food really isn't suiting me today

not too sure about the implantation stuff guys, that bit always seems to baffle me

 

[EmmyReece]

Well, I've gone and ordered the pregnancy tests, and it all seems a whole lot more real now, and I'm petrified. I don't know how to word it, but, it's like I really got my hopes up because with it being the first time I've ovulated since ttc, and I can't bear a test to come back

I'm scared that all the symptoms are in my head. I'm scared that I'm dreaming them up to try and convince myself that I'm pregnant. But I don't normaly throw up like I did the other night, yoghurt doesn't normally make me feel sick, I don't normally get such a crampy belly and achey back. Just scared it's psychosomatic that's all

 

[EmmyReece]

Well the tests have been shipped out, if they're not with me tomorrow, it'll be saturday or possibly monday at the latest

 

[CamoQueen]

Aww, hun, I know how you feel. I can't decide whether to be hopeful that I might be PG, or to be sad because I'm so sure AF is coming. I will change my mind every ten minutes or so, lol.

I think we just don't want to get our hopes up, more than anything. Some people will even get their BFPs and still not believe it until they've tested another 5 or 6 times, ya know?

 

[EmmyReece]

Yeah I know exactly what you mean hun, and when it happens for me, I'm sure I'll be the same, testing for a while before I can bring myself to believe it.

These sorts of things don't happen for me. I'm not one of the lucky ones. I'm trying to tell myself that I haven't caught, that I haven't been lucky, that my af will probably turn up. But then I'll get a twinge, or feel a bit sicky, and I'll think to myself, well it's about time my luck turned around, so maybe I have been lucky.

I know I sound so down on myself, but I think it's easier to do that than get my heart broken, but it'll still get broken if I get a It'll still make me angry at myself.

I was so calm a few days ago, but that's gone, completely gone ... I just feel this desperation to be pregnant and to finally have a lo of my own

 

[CamoQueen]

I know how you must feel, having just Ov'd after waiting so long... and now it's kind of like you've waited so long that waiting even longer for PG is just unbearable, IYKWIM?

I BF'd my son exclusively for a year, then he only got breastmilk snacks once every few days after that... still, I didn't ovulate for the first time 'til last month, and he's nearly two! We started 'trying' in October, but I wouldn't ovulate... so frustrating! So I kind of get where you're coming from.

I have a good feeling about this month, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for us! But even if -- knock on wood -- you don't get your BFP this month, you shouldn't beat yourself up! You should give your inner self a big hug for having to go through the TWW rollercoaster, and coming out on the other side with your sanity!!!

 

[EmmyReece]

it's nice that someone understands, not nice that you've been through it too, but I do appreciate the advice

it's my first real 2ww and it's driving me mad I can't wait for these tests to get here and to find out one way or the other

 

[CamoQueen]

So when the tests come, will it be like Christmas, lol? And waiting for it is kind of like being a kid waiting for Santa to come, right??? Because that's how I feel about waiting to test.

I guess the only difference is that there's a 25 percent chance the present I open will have the gift I've been dreaming of -- and a 75 percent chance it will be filled with tampons!!! lol

 

[EmmyReece]

yeah I think that will be the case with me too, I'm so looking forward to the tests arriving, but am still scared. wish I knew what sort of chance I was looking at, but got no idea lol
