Trying for a Baby Part 9

For the last few months a week past OV I seem to get really bloated and although its not painful it is uncomfortable. Its kind of like pressure in my stomach and occassional popping noise. It then disappears a day or 2 before AF arrives. So google (which is evil!) came out and now I have freaked myself out with various diagnosis.
I am going to book a drs appointment I think although I am really worried it may be endo or something...
I suppose I just needed a little rant
You have beaten me to MY rant lol!! I was strangely enough going to write something similar - although I am not sure about the OV part. I have had awful stomach cramps all day, and ended up driving home with my trousers undone cos my stomach felt so bloated and uncomfortable. not had a definite positive on an opk ever, but thought last month it was around CD14, this month not seen a positive but am thinking if it is the same as last month I must be around 6DPO. I did start googling this and being a bit naught symptom spotting...but in reality it is probably just be IBS.
You should probably get it checked, especially if its not the first time0 -
Faith sorry to hear your feeling low today, google can chuck up so many ideas which are usually wrong.i hope you can get an appt with your dr soon though.

Thanks Tia and Partmouse
I think it's more likely IBS but better get it checked out. Just keep thinking that life's not fair, why couldn't I just ave a normal, working, V. Fertile body

Hello all, sorry for my grumpy outburst yesterday, this AF has been such a blow.
We did everything right... Clomid taken and all. New appointment made with fake gynecologist for later in the month. I have to run out after work and buy tampons, stupidly I hoped I'd not need them!
Next month I have to pack my bags for the other thread, is one welcome in both?
Lots of us are over 12 months now for one reason or another but sometimes people tend to use the 12 month plus one for asking more 'medical' stuff whilst this one is a bit more chatty so you can use just one or either! No need to leaveHubbys scan shows that everything is backing up into his kidneys hence his utis
He has to have more tests with the doc
My bloods in the morn
Hugs to those that need one
At least you know what it is now so they can sort it out.
faith hopefully its just IBS. I had a horribly bloated stomach yesterday.
Mrsttc Generally you ovulate 12-36 hours after a positive opk and then the egg hangs about for 24 hours I think.
So if you got a positive on Saturday, then you prob ovulated Sunday or Monday, so Tues is a bit late, but not impossible.
But then you got 3 positive opks?? Hmm not sure. I just do one and then don't test after that apart from a couple of times and then line always goes lighter.
You could start temping then if you temp rises you know when you ovulated?
Personally I think its best to bd as soon as you see EWCM because that's what the sperm can live in for longest.0 -

Glad Im not the one who often drives with their trousers undone :rotfl:
Do any of you have the same problem when buying clothes? I always have to buy clothes that sit low, I absolutely can not stand having anything around my stomach.
So when I try on jeans in shops, they might fit me fine, but then if I pretend to sit in them, they like pinch me round the tummy and so then I think well I don't want to have that if I'm eating in them or something, so I put them back!
Yet the same pair of trousers could be gaping at the back when I stand up? Its like they make them for people with backs that curve out and no bum as they're like straight up the back/bum part? :rotfl:0 -
I'm really bloated too at moment and have bee- for a few days - maybe its the good weather making us all inflate?? Lol.
I'm going to test again tomorrow morning if no AF, although I did detect a tiny little pink patch on knicker watch earlier (nearly needed a microscope to see it) but im wondering if it signals the witches arrival...0 -
Hello ladies
Also very bloated and really noticed it today although I definitely swell up in the heat so wondered if it was jus that or trapped wind perhaps!?
Can I guess 6 bfps this month please
Not much to report here, just waiting in the two week wait...boring!! Still feeling a little positive this month as we did everything right but also trying to be realistic as af approaches next week
Hugs to all that need themGot married October 2012 :jHoping to conceive 20130 -
Newbie here, hey, stumbled upon your lovely convo's when googling "how long did it take you to conceive your first baby" so thought i'd join you all if that's ok?!
Been trying for three months, and have just purchased a CBFM, so i'm ready to attack after this AF has finished.

Delurks for a moment...
I have such bad cramps today - this is about the only month that I'm wanting af to arrive early! Off on my hols at the weekend - right when she is due to show her very annoying face! We did manage to bd around alleged ov time so we'll see but I'm starting to give up hope now - I've got some issues that that need sorting. May come back on for a rant when I feel ready or maybe on the other board...
Relurks for a while....0
