Signs, maybe not signs, it's hard work!!!

[charlie07]

Well I bought folic acid, got to pick up mulit vits for pregnancy tomorrow and got a pregnancy test although I'm waiting on doing the test.

I'm not really after advice, probably more to put my thoughts down in writing and if anyone has experienced same or wishes to commment then all the better.

After finding out yesterday that your period doesn't actually begin until you are in full flow (I always thought it from wehen you start showing!!), my calculations are all up the swanny and may have to start again.

BUT, since I came off my period, which is 2 weeks tomorrow, it was also a 28 dayer which has NEVER happened, also very short (one day of heaviness about 3 days of very light) and also seemed to have egg white m in with the cm which has never happened I have had very tender boobs, but nips are fine, had slight dizziness although that's been fine for a week as were the ehadaches I had. feeling a little tired now but hey, it's been a long week.

Before my period made a show, I had no symptoms what so ever, I always get something, whether slight cramping and a belly wobble (the only way I can describe it), sore boobs. The sore boobs didn't come till after.

Now after bd on Sunday am, I have been sore as I was caught and of course went through the stinging phase, sore, but for the last day I have had slight pinky spotting, but only ever so slightly. Now this could come from the little cut I have (almost gone) or could be the infamous spotting, but that I think is wishful thinking.

My boobs are sore after about an hour of getting up, they are not sore first thing in the morning. I'm only an A cup so not huge at all.

I am going to wait till the time I am due on again, which is, if my body decides to do another shocking 28 dayer!!, any time after 21st December. I had a blighted ovum in March this year so I guess part of me is very wary of everything that's happening to me. I guess a little paranoid,.

I don't know, the things that go thorugh our minds, the hopes, the dreams. I've just got some pcis today of my 2 little nieces dressed up in Xmas gear, oh so adorable and beautiful, they keep me going, I just hope I can have a little cousin for them.

xx

I've had a cut that's bled before. I hope it gets better soon.

 

[justme00]

I hope those are signs of pg and not something else. Goodluck! I would get a cheapy pg test and take a test, but that's just me....heheh

 

[Carolina]

good luck i hope you get a bfp!

 

[dakini]

I hope you get a BFP! Sounds promising.

If your AF was really odd for you, you may want to buy a cheapie and test. One time when I had a very odd AF and then the next month, like you, had tender BBs, and other signs, I went to my doctor and he actually thought I might have been pg but the blood test didn't follow that out.

Definitely looking good though! keeping my fingers crossed for you.

And I know how hard it can be seeing little ones all dressed for the holidays...I want to be on my way to having one for next year! Here's to everyone here getting that!

Good luck, I hope everything goes well

Morning all

Well just got up, no sore boobs yet, but they are starting, not sore, just feel a little bruised. I decided to take a test (which I bought before I read all your great messages, I must have got a vibe from you all). Now I am bleeding more, not flowing, more bigger spotting, brownish. Now the test was negative but in all fairness, last time I was pregnant, I felt pregnant, even though I have different signs, I don't feel pregnant. I definately know the bleeding is not from the cut.

Is it possible, that the egg could have tried to implant, but only lasted a very short time?? Could this be the bleeding but there's no pregnancy???? I do not bleed/spot in the middle of my cycle, I'm not due till at least 21st.

Sounds weird, but I'm not too disappointed as I didn't actually get it into my head that I might be pregnant, so the dissppointment isn't huge. I had already decided that this month was a wash out as I got the cut and only managed bd one time during the time I thought I was ovulation. Actually after ready about it being possible to ovulate DURING your period, I'm wondering if that happened to me, plenty of ewcm on my heaviest day last cycle.

Oh I don't know. I've got to check which day I get a full flow day during my next period, count that as my first day and then decide when to bd next month. Last time I was pregnant it was quite by accident, we weren't being careful so was a complete shock, now I want to be pregnant, the calculations are hard work.

I guess I'll have a good time at xmas and new year, have a few drinks, make the most of them and then go for it in our brand new year of 2008, I reckon it's the year for all of us, I've decided

A quick update before I go to work.

Well after writing the last message I felt wet in my pants, checked and definately more spotting although not full flow. I now have the belly wobbles like I normally get before a period. Now my period is not due for another 7 days and that's basing it on a 28 day cycle which I have never had except for last month so now I have absolutely no idea what's going on. I really don't want to go to the docs, I don't feel ill, in fact as I don't understand him, I would probably get better advice from you ladies. I'm not feeling crap or bad or ill, just a little confused at this time. Oh, boobs are starting to feel a little tender but not a lot or as much as previous days.

Well let's see what the day brings. Have a good one everyone xx

How long have you been off of bcp? might be messing your cycles up they are with mine. First was 36 days, then 24 and last one 34 so i'm struggling to know when im ovulating as each cycle seems to be different,we're just bd'ing at least every other day now for the month and hoping

 

[charlie07]

Oh blimey, I think I've been off the pill for about 6 - 7 years now. Had normal 28 day cycles when I was on it, that's why I went on it. Since then, never knew when I was coming on. The last cycles since my mc (March) have been
33
35
32
32
34
30
28

The 28 dayer, I started on 23rd November, 1 day light, 1 day heavy, 2 days slowly getting lighter, 4 days nothing. Now I ahve spotting, it's not getting heavier, brownish, creamy ish, slight heaviness in my stomach but nothing I could even call a mild ache. This puts me on 20 days as I started spotting yesterday. So very very weird.

The test is negative, I took the test to rule that out, so feeling fine, just spotting, not supposed to be on for at least another week, no illness, no stress (in fact the last 2 weeks have been great), so I guess it's just one of them things, maybe I should put it down to age!!

I could end up waffling today, posting nupdates that are a waste of time, but I ned to have soemwhere to write it down, all my girl friends are in the UK.

 

[dakini]

I don't really know what to say...just wanted to give you a .

Maybe wait and see what happens...and yes, you can have 'chemical pg' which is where an egg tries to implant but there's no baby. If this isn't a flow, and it's darker red/brown, it could be implantation bleeding, especially if AF isn't due for another week....hope it's good news and a BFP!

(Ok, said something other than the , but the still stands!)

Hi all

Just to let you know, I am having what I would say is a normal period, slight crampiness and it's definately more than just spotting. So ..... I only had 2 weeks free before starting a period again. So maybe it was just of those things that I had a period and ovulated at the same time and now that is why I am having another period now?? Is it?? I have marked everything down so I can see where it will lead next month.

Thanks for all your support and comments xx

Hi all

Just a quick update.

I am having a proper af, I'm never particularly heavy but this is more than implantation bleeding. So, 2 weeks ago a came of what I though was my period (approx. 3 - 5 days early) which was very light and short except one day and now 2 weeks later I am having a proper af (sorry just, said that, waffling already!!) Oh, just to add (not sure if I mentioned it before) I did take a test but it was very negative, so I will plod on, the next time I try I will be more than 37 1/2 yearsw old and yes, this does stick in my mind, my mum was younger than me when she started the menopause and there is a big chance that it could hit me at any time and so I know time is against me.

Anyway, I feel fine, but very impatient and tired yesterday, so last night I had a glass of red vodka and sprite and a lovely bar of chocolate, felt much better

I've got my new diary out already for 08 and marking down the days, something to look forward to.

Congratulations to everyone who has had the BFP, seems to be quite a few lately, it's fantastic news and I truly am so very happy for you. You bring us all hope and a little bit of luck
