Becks I can't take the credit it was T super idea as you can see it so clearly . Xxxx
I'm feeling so pms ish . AF due the next couple of days . Haven't had pms for as long as it can remember !! Hoping its a good sign that my hormones are getting back to where they should be as my thyroid settles . Hoping for a longer than 2 days AF also as that will mean something is changing !!! BOY OH BOY how times have changed ...... Hehehehe

 

[Oasis717]

Oh I didn't realise thank you too T! I've been holding my wee since 1pm and I'm literally so scared to test, I've a horrible feeling it will be lighter that's great your feeling back to normal, not so great on the pmt though but you know what I mean!! Hopefully it won't be too long before you can TTC again! Xxxx

 

[Serenjay]

Regina glad you're feeling better hopefully soon like becks said you can ttc again...x

Becks myself I find the thought of testing so scary that I won't test again.. I think your tests were good.. and we are almost 5 weeks, how many times have you made it this far with that kind of line? xx

 

[Oasis717]

I only made it this far with that line as far as I know with Brooklyn cause the two I lost in 2012 I only tested once! The two chemicals last year I had a faint line that never got darker and disappeared by now. I only reached 18 dpo then I bled. Adam is away with work today is ringing me at 8 to find out what the test is, I've got to do this last one but I'm so scared! Gunna do it now:/ xxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Well its about the same as last nights, no lighter but no darker either, that's it now, no more tests xxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Actually as it dries it is lighter xx

 

[Oasis717]

Right this is interesting I had a few really rubbish ICS off eBay, I used them alongside the other tests but even with how dark my lines got the ICS were barely there, obviously I got a very insensitive batch! Anyway, I had the hook effect at 6 weeks with Brooklyn where tests got lighter so you dilute urine with 50% water and get a dark as control line again. So prob due to desperation I used two ICS, top is with concentrated urine, bottom is diluted with 50% tap water. Interesting right! So I used two more and got the same result. I wish I had a Superdrug test to try it on lol xxxx

 

[tillyttc]

I had this happen to me can't remember what dpo but I panicked so thought I would try diluting 4parts wee 1 part water and my test came back great was at this point I have up testing lol xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Ahha so there is hope!!!!!! Yippee (I think I've lost it lol) xxx

 

[tillyttc]

Lol my husband put his foot down said in a very sweet way ( darling I think it time to step away from the tests ) lol xxx

 

[tillyttc]

But I know what you going through its awful when it should be wonderful ! You wake up and the first thing you think of is when should I test and what time and how many lol I was bordering on obsessive iam sure the staff in asda's thought I belonged in a straight jacket rocking in a corner licking a window I brought that many lol xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Omg stop it lol that is soooooo funny, I don't know what you look like but I've still got a mental image of you in asda at the window LOL, you really cheered me up, thank you xxxxxx

 

[Serenjay]

LOL Tilly!!! that's so funny!!

Becks you lost me with the science. But im hoping all is ok and you feel relieved a little xx

 

[tillyttc]

Morning oasis hope your not in asda licking that window lol are you doing that digi today or are you going to leave it a wee while it's a tough decision to make is the digi road as once your on it your chasing that 3+ lol and with that brings a load of new emotions . Xxx

 

[Serenjay]

Becks we are with you whatever you decide to do... I hope it's a positive test that put's your mind at rest I know how you're feeling..we have both been there so many times together... xxx

Hi girls... My stomach is massive.. its been 6 days since loo I feel so sluggish and slow. Im back in work tomorrow so I need some of this to go before then!!!

I have tried a hot curry!! Fruit, pune juice, Raisins, sultanas, bran, wholemeal bread. I think the thing that may work is a McDonalds Milkshake as I just remembered that sometimes helps me to go.. the Banana one... I will try that later and let you know if it works lol

I am 5 weeks.. I have been debating putting a Ticker up.. but just thought I may just go ahead and show people that my little one is still around.. it's still a secret (apart from OH telling his flaming Hairdresser!!!! I thought only women gossiped and confided in the hairdresser.. not men!

My boobs are definitely there this morning in my Bra... im having to go and buy new ones. Im no longer able to wear my trousers or jeans as the bloat has taken control.. So I have had to buy a pile of dresses for work! They knew I had a Mc in dec but are starting to look at me with my pot belly. There are 5 pregnant girls in our office out of around 40 people and they are all due around the times I was due my babies.. as I was pregnant a lot last yr. I lost 7 in 18 months.

It was hard listening to them talking about the babies but now this one is still sticking around it's made it a bit easier if you know what I mean. I won't be telling them until im around 18 weeks as I need to renew my contract.

How are you all?? xxx

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks ladies but other than my last couple of ICS I think I'm done with the tests and if I am getting the hook effect the digis will just show 1/2 weeks and freak me out, I really, really don't know if all is OK but I've no pain, no bleeding at all so I think I'll just carry on and try to get a doctors app. T I can't put a ticker up til I know all is OK with me but you go girl! Still no real symptoms, starting yesterday morning I have a bit of pressure in my pelvis and boobs are still swollen and slightly tender but tbh that's it my gut is telling me all is not OK but I can't really trust that as I thought that with Brooklyn so........sigh.....I'll just wait and see I think xxxxxx

 

[Left wonderin]

Uh Becks those early weeks as so flipin hard !! Torture !! The " not knowing " is awful when do you think you can get a doc appointment ?? Your right to stop testing but not sure i could lol.... 5 weeks today is that right ? Praying so hard this beanie is a superglued one xx

 

[josie1234]

[Left wonderin]
