Trying For a Baby part 4

moneysaver12

Hi everyone, been really busy with my assignment and uni, nearly finished it then got two more to do. I have been using the ov tests since sunday, come up negative so far. Just started to get pains, could this be ov pain. Im on day 12 now.

I'm now 7 or 8 dpo, CD22 . Af due any time between mon and weds. Who wants to slap me first for symptom spotting? Boobs normally hurt pretty much straight after ov, this time they only started hurting a couple of days ago, loads in my left one yesterday and now both. No cramping, no backache. Just not a normal run up to AF. Will be testing on 18th which is next Saturday (want to leave it until I break up from school cos I know a BFN will make me cry - the months ttc are adding up now).

Anyway, someone tell me to behave please!

How long is your cycle normally? Mine's about 28 days and about CD12 is when I start feeling stuff

Well tomorow is my testing date, realised last night I had worked out my testing date wrong, as I have really short cycles, AF was actually due 3rd December. Just going to wait for AF to show, had pains in my belly, bad back, etc so I think its coming, it might just be delayed as I have been extra stressed lately, with xmas, work, money, OH, college course, family, etc!
This forum helps keep me sane!!!

Hope everyone is okay *hugs*

Update, my blood results came back today and I have HCG levels of 107 ( apparently normal for 4 weeks pregnant) the doctor wants to do another tomorrow so he can compare to see if it is progressing as normal, I'll have the results on Friday.

Elliebobs - I am thinking of you, it's horrible they make you wait - I know how I felt yesterday and it is not one bit nice - Hopefully the news will be good next week ( I wish I could give some more advice but I don't know enough about this lark )

Sending positive vibes to all those having a hard time

For those ssing about early pregnancy symptoms I'll share mine
No change in boobs
Less discharge
Mild cramps for a few days now they have subsided I feel like my lower stomach ( from belly button downwards ) feels full
Feeling dizzy when I get up too quickly
Mild nausea
More sensitive sense of smell
My upper stomach from belly button to under bust feels like I've been doing crunches, mild muslce pain

TMI Alert

For thoses just starting out I used a website which showed which days we should be fertile, very fertile etc ( when I find the name of it I will post ). We bd's for the week before fertility every other day and for the 5 fertile/very fertile days we Bd'd once a day ( whether we felt like it or not, I'm a hard task master ) and then for the next week we bd'd every other day just in case, I lay on the bed for 20 minutes after bding, took showers instead of baths, and as for positions I heard rear entry was a good position to conceive or missionary. I read somewhere that sperm can survive for 3 days up there and a egg normally lasts 12/24 hours so at least every other day should do it.

Hope this helps someone

Hugs to those that need them. There seem to be a few of you going through the rough bits at the mo.

Fuzz don't talk to me about cars! :mad: Last month for our 2 cars we had,
4 new tyres £430, diagnostic test on mine £80, Software update and gearbox oil change on mine £180, Service on mine £230, and car tax for both cars for 6 months £236.50 as well as buildings and contents insurance on the house! Bye bye savings!

MRI was awful as usual, why can't we convince our heads that it's not going to hurt us and we're perfectly safe! Anyway I think the hospital have mucked up. They sent the appt letter through saying appt was for MRI with gladolium or some such thing (basically a dye). The last 2 scans I have had they have done 1 set of scans for appx 25 mins then they come in and inject the dye and do the whole lot again. This is what the nurse told me was going to happen today. What actually happened was they did the scans for abppx 25 mins then came in and I thought they were just taking me out the machine to do the injection but they took all the head cage bit off and said that was it. When I asked about the dye the radiographer and nurse looked at ewach other oddly as if to kind of say "oh sh*t!" and then kind of blagged it and said "oh you don't always need it!" I wasn't convinced and I will be really cheesed off if I have to go through it all again. The last 2 scans I haven't been allowed to move at all whilst they do the injection so that I'm in exactly the same position for the second set of scans. I'm guessing that it was too late by this stage this morning as they had taken everything off and moved me! We'll see but I'm fully expecting a phonecall to say it hasn't been done properly!:mad:

Evening all.

Thinking of you ellie. Hope its just a sneaky baby.

CD13 here. Cervix gone low and hard which isn't good is it? Plus my boobs are sore and leaking a milky fluid when squeezed. Any ideas? Still in a foul mood, feeling sick and exhausted. Stupid cold.

hurrah for laura's cheap (ish) MOT and even more hurrah's for katy's swish new (free) bed; that is actually pretty exciting and well done you!

Let's hope that the new bed gets christened in spectacular fashion...

Thanks again everyone, I seriously would have lost the plot if if wasn't for your support; I'm close to the edge as it is!

Becs: I really hope that you don't get called back, and, sleepytiger; I'm sorry but I have absolutely no idea...hope you get some answers from someone who is a lot more knowledgeable than me

Hi again; am back after a much needed sleep on the sofa under the blankey! Thanks for all your suggestions/google searches; it really is appreciated as my head is all over the place at the mo and don't know if I've been thrown a lifeline or not.
OH did try to ring the EPAU but they couldn't offer any further advice other than to wait. It's going to kill me but...what can I do.

Hope everyone else's day is going better than mine; does anyone have any nice news (not necessarily TTC related) to impart to cheer us all up???????
