    I went to bed at 9:30pm last night as I felt sick and crampy. The feeling remains today and my legs and back are killing me. I convinced myself in the car on the way to work that I am not pregnant and it's all in my head.


    Power of positive thinking, Lulu. There was a study done recently where they took 2 groups of basketball players. One group got to go and practise, and the other group just thought about how they'd do things if they were at practice, and the positive thinking group actually performed better in a match. Just goes to show, it's not all about getting in there with the balls ;)

    :rotfl: I like that thinking! It's just that I feel so different to how I normally do in the TWW that I have this incredible feeling that I am, but I can't get my hopes up because I don't think I can deal with the disappointment anymore.

    Sorry to hear about BFN, ThePug. You're not out until AF is here, though so I'm still crossing fingers.

    ThePug, it's not over till the AF Lady sings!

    Fingers crossed for you, Lulu. Sounds very promising.

    AF is due today and I feel bloody awful. Just a matter of time now.
  • So sorry for everyone who's had bad news over the last few days.

    I had a rotten day yesterday (mood wise) and AF is definitely about to make an appearance, wish it would just hurry up! :cry:

    I'm not sure how people feel when they say "I knew I was pregnant, I could just feel it" - although obviously I am hoping it is how I feel right now! :P

    I'm one of those annoying people and I just FELT different in the 2WW. I can't put my finger on it, but both times I've had BFP I just felt different in the run up to when AF was due and I had a feeling that I was pregnant, but didn't dare get my hopes up just in case. I know, that's really frustrating and irritating to not be able to say "I felt this, this and this". It does sound promising for you and I have EVERYTHING crossed for you, Lulu!!

    Also:
    Just goes to show, it's not all about getting in there with the balls.
    Had me howling! :rotfl: :rotfl: Quite possibly best quote of the thread to date!

  • Blackribboner - SO sorry about your bleeding. Hugs xx

    Lulu - I actually can't wait til you get to test, I have a good feeling for you lol.

    Nothing much to report here. CD4, still on AF. Have sorted out my baby making plan for this month though. I have OPKs so going to try the sperm meets egg plan - anybody used this? Any lurkers been successful on it lol? Plus I've ordered Conceive Plus. The casual approach didn't work last month so I'm pulling out the big guns lol.

    I keep running to the loo each time I feel something, and just loads of brown spotting and cm. I'm just desperate for AF to come now so I can start planning next cycle. Pretty sure my colleagues now think I have the trots though!
