sarah maybe you had a chemical pregnancy....

Hey ladies

I had my last period 21st February, this is the longest time I have went without one since we started ttc nearly a year ago!

I have done 2 hpt's but both negative!

Which is the most acurate one to use in your opinion?

I dont know if I have any symptons i feel bloated and narky of myself and have more headaches than normal and have had some minor cramping! I'm afraid to get my hopes up as they have been dashed for so long!

I have PCOS and my hubby has anti-bodies in his sperm so we have been referred for ICSI, so I'm assuming with all the problems we both have I wont conceive naturally

Has anyone else had similiar issues??

 

[mesdupmoi]

I think I may be getting my BFP soon Stomach is a little tender, I am feeling remarkably dizzy, getting a headrush whenever I stand up.. Boobs are a little sore, and I feel both full and hollow at the same time.. Did 2 tests over the weekend but both were BFN's..

Hope you all get the BFP you're looking for soon xx

[sarahsexy57]

This thread is amazing! Been sitting here for three days read all 275 pages! After reading everyones stories I still have a question about ov:
How soon after ewcm do you ovulate? I don't bbt and no luck with opk's, but i did have ewcm with ov cramps for two days than I really cramped three days later. I wish i knew if i ov on the ewmc days or not until days after???
Either way now I have all the typical tww symptoms but this month i have noticed starting 6dpo: very dry chapped tight lips(lip balm doesn't help) and bloody tasting water on occasion. Sorry tmi.. but kinda a "dribbling" feeling down there but nothing to make note of when i wipe, it's just on the inside. I ordered pg test with 10mg early detection should arrive any day now
How do you insert the happy faces?? lol

 

[NewBeginnings]

Anyone expecting AF around May 16th???? I'm trying not to SS but I can't help myself reading all these symptoms leading up to a BFP! I'm only 6-7 dpo and already obsessing over every twinge! Has anyone felt the dribbling feeling like youre about to start Af this early on? That is a new sign this month along with the bloody taste while drinking water sometimes. And very tight smooth lips like a sunburn on them. Aside from those few odd things my normal feelings after O are: cramps, very sore nipples and moody!

 

[JoyDelight]

Thank you all for the posts; have yet to read them all but from what I read, pregnancy is a possibility.

I thought I'd share my one symptom, which is hardness on inside of both boobs and they seem bigger, according to husband, and they also seem heavier. Had period on April 11 but sex was very early (April 20/21) early so I feel it was too early to conceive.

Any ideas? Thanks again.

So, these are the symptoms I'm having......

1. The past few days I've just felt like someone beat me, achy and extremely sleepy( I never take naps and its now kind of an everyday thing.)
2. I've felt like I was getting a cold. (Coughing & stuffy nose.)
3. My BB's are very sore and sensitive. (Its normally okay for my DD to touch them but now its almost awful.)
4. I've knocked off the alcohol. (Normally a one or two after work drinker, now i just dont even want it around.)


I'm not sure if I'm pregnant. We've only been trying for a month or two and my periods are so off that its very hard to track them. Should I take a test?

DEFFO! do a test

 

[mesdupmoi]

Still no AF for me, but also still getting BFN's AF was due 21days ago, so something is going on somewhere..

Here's to hoping x

Hi there mesdupmoi, Have you tried changing the brand of HPT? I would pay a visit to your dr for a blood test. It wouldn't be so much of an issue if you were usually irregular but three weeks over and still getting BFN?

Best of luck missy! Fingers Xd for a BFP soon! x

 

[mesdupmoi]

Thanks LilLeafyLea.
I've tried a couple of different brands, but havent actually tried one this week. Get paid tuesday, so going to grab a digi then.

I have a couple of questions to ask, which are likely to make me look a bit dense :/ They're to do with some of the abbreviations on here..
I don't understand "cm" or "opk", and was curious as to how to figure out where the cervix is, in relation to it moving or not.. (Obviously I know where it is normally lol!)

Please help!! x

 

[LilLeafyLea]

Seriously, that isn't dense lol, I was making my own formulations of what the acronyms meant - BFP meant - Brilliant! Flippin Pregnant! in my head lol!

CM = Cervical mucus - the discharge you get pre & post ovulation ( O )
OPK = Ovulation Predicter Kit, just like a HPT (Home Pregnancy Test) but calculates the best time to DTD (Do the dance - sex).

I used this site to decipher the rest:

Not 100% sure on the cervix positions, it's all a bit of a mystery to me too, hope this site helps
