  • I don’t know what the hell is going on. Had spotting alternate days since Tuesday, nausea absolutely headaches. AF isn’t due until Thursday and I never have any of those symptoms over a week early.
    I really don’t want to get my hopes up. But my back is killing me too. Debating getting a frer.
    I’m so impatient.
  • Munchkin get the test! All the signs are there.

    Help needed ladies, I have new opk sticks, if they are not positive they are As close to positive as they can be a tad bit fainter but def dark!

    Would you say they are positive or do they need to be darker again? I!!!8217;m confused as I!!!8217;m only cd13 today and last cycle I didn!!!8217;t ovulate until cd20 nearly didn!!!8217;t bother doing any this am it!!!8217;s only because I had a lot of CM I thought I better had just incase we missed my window!

    Hope all is well xx
  • If in doubt and all that...sending positive vibes!!
  • I don!!!8217;t even know what !!!8216;absolutely headaches!!!8217; means hahahaha.
    I!!!8217;m going to try to hold out . I didn!!!8217;t get a positivity till two days after AF was due last time so it!!!8217;s far too early I think.
  • Got a bfn on a cheapy test, four days before AF is due and not FMU so wasn't expecting anything else really.
    Ordered some very sensitive tests off amazon so I'll try later in the week.
    Got my wedding dress fitting weds so kinda need to know by then :rotfl:

  • Skimper !!!8211; You must be so frustrated! Doctors say it is normal for it to take several months for your periods to return and your cycle to be consistent (even up to a year but hopefully it won!!!8217;t be that long for you!), so although it is annoying there is definitely nothing to worry about. You may be best not doing the OPk!!!8217;s until after your first period as you don!!!8217;t want to be causing yourself any undue stress, which may impact your period returning. Just relax and enjoy some frequent baby making! Hehe

    Selement !!!8211; I believe migraines are more painful and debilitating than headaches. I think people tend to experience sensitivity to light and nausea. A migraine will leave you only able to really lie in a dark room until it passes/medication kicks in. Whereas a headache I think is a pain in your head, which can be very painful and may need you to lie down but often is manageable and painkillers can ease it. I tend to get a lot of tension headaches, so a massage of my shoulders/neck/head helps. Keep recording as you say, and just keep returning to your Doctor until they will do something. Maybe see a different Doctor next time.

    Munchkin84 !!!8211; sorry for the BFN but as you say, it may just be too early yet. Are you exciting for your dress fitting? I!!!8217;ve finally succumbed and packed my dress away this weekend, we!!!8217;ve been married almost 7 months! Haha


    Nothing much to report here. AF is due Tuesday. No chance of being pregnant due to illness preventing BDing. It has been quite nice not to have the anxious 2WW this month, I thought I would be more disappointed but I got over that quite quickly and haven't really thought about it.
  • Hi all, CD 7 here. Online a 4 day AF which was nice so we've managed to BD twice since (timings out I know but it's all good practice).
    Selement all you can do is try to manage it, record it and don't take no for an answer at the docs. As suggested try to see a different doc of the current one isn't being much help.
    T4Taylor Thanks for the link, I've signed up now too.

    Hope you're alll having great weekends :) baby dust to all x

  • Yes PKK I!!!8217;m so excited but also nervous as I haven!!!8217;t lost as much weight as I wanted to but still got 18 weeks before the wedding and if I stop stuffing my face with crap I could lose maybe a stone. Which I!!!8217;d be happy with.
    Hope everyone is ok x
