12dpo today, Af due either wednesday/thursday/friday... Really don't want it to come though.

Got some mild cramping and lower backache, so I think she's on her way. My temp went up again only slightly this morning, but I'm preparing myself for it to drop suddenly soon.

My brother became a dad for the first time at 11.30 last night, his misses was in labour for nearly 24 hours, but he got his wish of a baby boy on fathers day, so very happy (and so very jealous and guilty for feeling jealous). I'm now an aunty to 8 nephews and one step neice, ranging from the ages of 20 to one day old!! (I'm 23, so I have nephews I see more like brothers... lol)

Well I decided to waste a test today just before I went to fetch my DD from preschool and there is a very very faint line!

I saw it almost immediately but it was so faint I thought I was kidding myself, so I left it a few more minutes and it got a bit darker. I did take a picture, but seem to have lost the cord to get it onto the computer so will post it when I find the cord - not sure it will be visible on here though. I am still sceptical because this is so unlike how I felt when I was pregnant with my DD - I am still sure AF will show so will test again in 2 days time (or maybe tomorrow)

 

[schnoodle]

oh hunny wow! what symptoms have you been having?

 

[Tanikit]

I am about to have AF symptoms (really grumpy, angry and tearful - I don't usually get tearful, just cross so maybe that was something) The only other thing I had that was suspicous was a heightened sense of smell at about 8/9 dpo and a bit of lower backache - but that is normal for me. I was sure I was NOT pregnant this month.

 

[Barbiebaby]

Tanikit, that's brilliant, fingers crossed it will be even darker tomorrow! What test did you use, a line! And I take it it wasn't with FMU either!

Yay! The start of this threads first BFP

wahooo!

Its very hard to get nice fancy tests here in South AFrica - you have to get the pharmacy to order them specially for you so this was just a general test - apparently measures 20mIU. Its no brand that you guys talk about on here - I've used them before plenty of times and never got even a faint line.

Here are my symptoms:
1-6dpo was more bloated and gassy than I normally am, but nothing else specific
5-8dpo stuffy nose, may have been due to a cold
7dpo heightened sense of smell that was very noticeable
8dpo tired, felt a bit flushed later
9dpo started getting very grumpy and tearful, tired, sense of smell even more heightened
10dpo felt nauseous and still very gassy and bloated, very tired
11dpo lower back pain, gassy, tired, terribly grumpy and irritable, thought AF was on her way, tearful
12dpo still very grumpy and tearful
13dpo BFP, lower back ache, gassy, creamy CM still present (was there the whole luteal phase)

Hope that helps - as I said though it is totally different to my last pregnancy so I think anything goes.

 

[schnoodle]

oooh tankitthere similar to my symptomsaprt fromi dont have the sence of smell thing v noticeable or the cm.

I was going to buy a test secretly today, when picking up our little princess from school we took her to the park and i was going to our local sainsbury's to get something for dinner, but it's only a small sainbury's and didn't have any...

I may go and buy one tomorrow though, OH is out all day and I have one day off until back at work on wednesday... Might get a superdrug one or a frer... what do you ladies think? I know I shouldn't try before AF is meant to show but tomorrow i'll be 13dpo, and with my chemical at 15dpo, the line was so so so so super there, it was really dark, so surely if i am pregnant now there'll at least be a faint?

I would test hunni, like you say, it was strong at 15dpo before, i'm sure it'll show up. Both of those tests should be fine hunni. x x x

 

[faerieprozac]

My cramps have gone, but now I've got a different sort of pain, i cant explain it :S

Yeh, I'm going to get a test tomorrow, at least then if it negative I'll be able to get on with the rest of the cycle.

You lucky lucky woman - Congrats XXXXX

 

[DaisySue]

Congrats Tanikit on your BFP

Well as for me I broke down tested with FMU at 9 DPO and BFN. Today I was feeling very fatigue and sleepy. I should be expect AF 11-12 DPO

 

[Barbiebaby]

Tanikit, how are you feeling today?

Anyone else got any more symptoms/news?

xx

 

[faerieprozac]

I have got two superdrug tests and two cheap 'freedom' tests... Just waiting for a bit. It's been four hours since I last went to the toilet, do you think this is long enough? I am 13 DPO today, AF due between tomorrow and friday, I'm guessing thursday though as that'll give me a LP of 14 which is about right for me...

At least if I test today, and it's BFN on a superdrug test, I can know that AF is on her way and that my symptoms were all in my head.

 

[Tanikit]

DaisySue sorry about the BFN but it really is still early days.

Faerieprozac test!

Barbie I'm feeling pretty normal - no sign of AF and my sense of smell is still heightened a lot, but not much else. Still very early days though. I have to go and see my psychiatrist this afternoon about stopping my meds and have also been told to go and get a quantitative pregnancy test for my gynae so I can get an appointment at the right time. Have you tested today?

 

[faerieprozac]

Well I just took my superdrug test and it's negative, not been 3 minutes yet mind so gonna give it another few minutes... but I think I'm out. It picked up my HCG last month at 15dpo, so if I was pregnant surely there'd be a faint line now
