Ok, I haven't had the courage to come on here since my chemical in Feb, but I am now 11 days late and have extreme dizziness, nausea and I almost blacked out whilst attempting to throw up earlier. My bbs aren't sore like they were last time, but my abdomen is mega swollen with slight cramping, worse at night, and I am peeing like a race horse and I am not drinking anymore than usual. I know that the swollen belly could just be water retention from being pretty damn late for AF, but the dizziness and nausea have gotten worse over the past week. And I am oh.so.flippin'.tired! I am on cycle day 34 at the moment, and my cycle is usually 24/25 days long. I have had the occasional 32 day cycle, but I have never been this long, and felt like this too.

I know I need to poas haha, but I'm kinda scared to. Since the chemical and my previous miscarriage, I dare to hope. I think I might leave it until the 1st July till I test...not too much longer, and if AF is on her way, I wont have tortured myself with the racking disappointment of testing lol. Bloody bodies!!

I bet now I've posted this AF will rear her ugly head haha

[Vicki_Cream]

Hahaha I knoooow, so tempted. But I think I am going to be strict with myself and wait till the 1st July. If I am pregnant, a few days shouldn't make a difference (I hope anyway..if you are in there little bean, STICK!!) After I posted my previous post, my nipples started tingling hahaha.

 

[Vicki_Cream]

Hi Girls

Hope everyone is well. Just to add my bit for you. I got my BFP on Monday (approx 11-12dpo) just gone and thought I would add the (few) symptoms I had. Dpo may be a day out but here goes:

8dpo - white sticky discharge
10dpo to present - achy tender boobs
11dpo to present - weird cramps (similar to AF but different, in fact I was taking the relaxed approach and this is why I tested, I am unsure how to describe but sort of like pulling/stretching more than cramping)
11dpo - nausea for a couple of hours, not had it since, may be unrelated.

to all
xx

Thanks MarineWife...I'll give all of that a try. It has gotten worse as the day has gone on. If I am pregnant, I hope that this heartburn doesn't last too long...but I'd also gladly pay that price...to have a beautiful, healthy baby!

Vicki_Cream...I'm going to test again on July 1st too. Here's to hoping that we both get to post BFP's on here that day!

 

[Vicki_Cream]

Good luck to you too Owl!

The OH and I are on the NT/NP boat, but he is one of those guys that if you suggest trying, he freaks out and completely shuts off. But when I had my MC in Feb and when I told him I was pregnant, he was over the moon! I think he is secretly just as worried as I am about getting a sticky bean, bless him!

This evening my bbs are tender and my nipples keep randomly tingling, I feel SO bloated and look it as well, and I have weird cramps. This could all well be AF being a b*tch haha! My legs are aching like crazy too, ad I haven't done anything extra. The dizziness has continued to worsen throughout the day, and I could barely eat my dinner and finish my cuppa earlier for want of bringing it straight back up (sorry, tmi)! Maybe it's the heat and my body just playing silly buggers lol.

Good luck to everyone!

again very bad nausea except for right after I eat.. only time I feel somewhat normal.. then heartburn sets in...up for 4 hours last night... EXHAUSTED and today a little short fused everything is bothering me... decided I would test again today when I got home from work.. now what on earth made me think it wouldn't be a BFN when I tested yesterday and it was a BFN and today I didn't even test with FMU.. had just peed like a hour before... and only 10dpo and temp dip was only 2 days ago.. way up today though... errrrrrrrrrrrrr frustrated

 

[Vicki_Cream]

Mkay, so the nausea and dizziness are insane this morning! It woke me up 3 times last night too! My legs and bad really ache this morning, so I am tired, grumpy, feel like sh*t and now have to go work in an office for 8 hours with broken air con. Awesome.

I just got a faint BFP this afternoon & my husband & I are cautiously excited about the prospect of having our first baby after a chemical last month & an ectopic the month before which resulted in the removal of my right tube.

Each time I have been pregnant I have had exactly the same symptoms:
* huge, full-feeling boobs
* extremely dry mouth/lips
* very vivid dreams
* lots of lotiony milky cm
* dull cramps right down low that don't feel like AF

I had all of these on & off from 1dpo til today.

We've now just gotta make sure a) our gorgeous little one sticks & b) it's in the right place this time!

Baby dust to all!

 

[marinewife101]

congrats on your positive =)

 

[Vicki_Cream]

Congrats on your BFP!

I couldn't resist talking a test this afternoon, but got a BFN (although I swear I saw two lines at first? Haha probably wishful thinking. Gutted, but still no sign of AF, although I have a dull ache with random sharpish pains. Blegh. This is driving me crazy. If AF hasn't arrived in a few days, I'll re-test I guess.

I have had loads of milky/lotiony CM for the past few days, which I don't get before AF. Time will tell I guess!

Hi Ladies

This thread is so helpful!!!!

I would like to ask, has anyone ever had all of thee symptons above just to find they were not preggo...and then when they didnt have any of the symptons actually was?
Reason asking I had all the symptons above and I got a BFN and blood test was also Negative. But I swear it was like no way I could have not been...I really thought I was bitten by the baby bug

xx

 

[mumanddad]

good evening ladies,

i need some advice, i am 9 days late on a 34 day cycle the reason i haven't put dpo is because i never caught it when testing

well it makes me now on day 43 and no sypmtoms bfp i dont think

i am tired but i am putting that down to the heat

i am also have really really dull af cramps that dont really bother me, and i'm not sleeping but again with how muggy it is a night i dont think many people are.

what do you think?

 

[Mrs Dubs]

i got my BFP yesterday, and i swore i would update this thread with my symptoms, so here goes:-

lil bit of background first, this was our 8th cycle trying and i have been having irregular cycles since stopping bc, my average cycle length was 39 days!

This was also our 2nd cycle using conceive + but only AFTER bd'ing cos hubby hated it lol

my last period started on May 31st and we only bd'd 4 times ths cycle, on 7th june, 8th 12th & 15th got my BFP on cd 27!

so i clearly ovulate a lot earlier in my cycle probs where we've been going wrong!

i dont know about dpo so will just list what i can remember:-

constant feeling of being wet down there LOL
Extreme hunger, & i mean extreame!
Sore nipples at first which then led to sore bb's but only really at the sides
Heartburn & indigestion, which is something i never get, so a big clue for me
Tired like you wouldnt beleive, i can sleep ALL the time!
Lower back pain
Af type cramps
The odd dizzy spell & feeling of nausea
feeling very bloated
Also a lot clumsier that usual, keep bumping into things

so as you can see, quite a lot going on wth me, i know you here this all the time, but i honestly did just 'know' that i was, suppose its kinda obvious given all my symptoms

good luck to all those ttc & congrats to all who have got their BFP

if anyone has any questons i'll be more than happy to answer them!!

this board has been such a support to me over the months and i cant thank you all enough! xx

 

[marinewife101]

Congrats =)

ok I just have to join this thread! Some great info here ladies! I am 8dpo today and tested (which was probably a bad idea. Anyways a :BFN: and I'm feeling kind of negative. Hard to get excited after 11 months of failing the test. Some of the symptoms here sound familiar though.
Have had lots of lotiony CM, I would like to think more than usual but really...who am I kidding I always want to feel different than the month before. Sore nipples but no sore boobs which usually happens before AF comes on.
Pretty tired but have been working overtime a lot lately too. Anyways, I just wanted to be in on this thread.
All the best to everyone and hope you get your :BFP: fast!
