I wasnt trying to brag, what I was trying to say was trusting your body/ instincts isn't such a bad thing. Having some faith in yourself does not always lead to disappointment.
You gotta believe in something when TTC or it gets miserable. I've been there too over the last couple of years.
I think alot of pms symptoms can be similar to pregnancy symptoms though and nature is cruel like that, hopefully this isn't another chemical for me this time fingers crossed xxx

I didn't think you were trying to brag I understand and agree with you about trusting your body/instincts - it's important. You do have to have some faith in yourself. I hope your bean isn't another chemical for you. I've had a couple in the past before too. Best of luck always best to keep positive I tried another test last night, another BFN - it's starting to make me feel I'm not pregnant, even though I am testing early. I don't remember being this impatient before, but my son is 7 and I feel my biological clock is ticking so feel extra anxious (not that that is going to help) xxx

Can i just jump on this thread im 6-8dpo don't temp and had positive OPKs for 3 days running and EWCM on the first day i did the OPKs. Up until today i was feeling really positive about this cycle but today seems all symptoms have disappeared all i feel is exhausted and cranky. With all 3 of my successful pregnancys sore boobs has been whats made me test but not even a hint of soreness atm had some breast pain around O time though which is new! Urrrgh! I brought a couple packs of 99p store firstvue strips, gunna let myself use one a day eith FMU to feed my POAS habbit! Ha! Which takes me up to roughly when i believe AF will be due! Good luck to all u girls, fingers crossed for lots of BFPs although im not confident about myself this cycle but I'll be happy to just have a normal cycle to start cracking on TTC xxxxx

Not at all My app says my AF is due Monday. It has been very accurate so far and I've been regular like clockwork since coming off the pill a few months ago. You are very close to me none the less Did you track your O date? I just went along with what my app said (which is of course just general). If I don't get a BFP this month I think I should possibly track it next month. Though my DH and I tried every day from when my AF finished. So shouldnt have missed the day (providing I did O this month).

Was your O day Friday 6th Oct? As I read full moons are meant to help you conceive and there was a full moon that night lol. Lucky night for baby making so they say xxx

how are you feeling tree trunks?

Yes a line is a line really, depends on the concentration of the urine that's all.
Typically I rarely am not drinking a drink of something or other, I get up twice to wee in the night recently.
Im feeling a bit sick on and off, mainly craving different foods, yesterday it was sweet things, today its fish n chips!
Had a couple of headaches, another very vivid dream last night, lots of weird pulsing pains in my abdomen on the right side last night.
How are you feeling shepherdess? Xxx

I feel great today, the last two evenings I've had a headache but maybe I need more water; I seem to be off my cups of tea so maybe I'm not drinking enough

you've made me want fish and chips now, but I'm sure that's just me rather then a pregnancy thing haha

Ooh it was in my fertile week but could have been my ov day! I just use my app I haven't used opks this month. Hopefully the full moon worked for us both then?
Maybe it worked for shepherdess and maybe baby too?
Im just feeling a bit sick for past few hours, it was the same yesterday too.
Keep us updated on your tests! Xxx

 

[KHTW]

Full moon? Tell me more please??

I remember totally hating the taste of tea in the first trimester with DD. And I love tea!

Fx for more BFPs x
