uncoordination madness!

[sophieB]

Hi everyone , I'm a newbie here!
I am not sure yet if i am pregnant as I still have a week until my period is due, however, for the last few days I have had sore breasts, been so incredibly tired I can hardly keep my eyes open, i'm really weepy, and above all terribly unco-ordinated. I am covered in bruises and grazes and I keep dropping things, falling over and banging my head on things - I seem to have lost all spacial awareness, and can't walk in a straight line. Please someone tell me this is a sign or pregnancy, and more importantly, that it's normal!!

Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you!

Hiya, I don't know if the uncoordination is a sign, I'm like that normally so wouldn't have noticed a difference! It sounds promising, good luck and let us know when you do a test!

Have you been trying?

 

[hearts81]

It was for me. I started falling over all the time, mostly down the stairs. I'm still like that now, very clumsy etc. I can also use it as my excuse for looking like a tool on the dancefloor..."i know I'm crap but I was great before I got pregnant honest"

 

[sophieB]

yes, we are trying, and I sooooo want to be pregnant that I wonder if I am just imagining symptoms because I want them so badly.
so though I think I feel "different" I might just be too desperate!

good luck sophie, have you tried testing yet? think the cb normal tests are good to pick up early levels....

 

[maybebaby]

If you can't afford loads of CBs try the eBay cheap ones. You can usually get about 10 for under £3.50 including delivery, and they're quite sensitive. It's sometimes worth testing early with cheap ones then checking with a clearblue if you get a BFP.

If you're experiencing symptoms already I would have thought your HCG levels would be higher... could be wrong though, so don't quote me on that!

Good luck... not sure if that it is a symptom..tiredness and tearfulness definately!

On the other hand though can also be a sign of AF.

When are you due to test?

I agree with maybebaby on the cheapy tests.

I would have spent a fortune otherwise!

They do work! I got 3 BFP's with them and my last final one with cb.

Good luck and keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I am having trouble deciphering all the abbreviations - what is AF? and all the other ones (BFP?)
Does anyone have a glossary they can post me?

thanks!

 

[Andrianne]

There is one post about the abbreviations but I don't know where it is... Maybe in Getting Started section??

Here are the most used I think:

AF= aunt flow/period
BFP= big fat positive
BFN= big fat negative
BD= baby dancing
TTC= trying to onceive
CM=cervical mucus
OPKs= ummm, not sure about the initials but it's the ovulation prediction sticks
HPT= home pregnancy test

Good luck with testing
