Category: Two Week Wait - Symptoms
Posted by koosh1980 » Jul. 1, 2012 5:51am

I can't help but think I'm getting every symtom and sign that I've I've been reading about. I've been poking around my nipple area to see if they are senitive but nothing. Today I've got a metallic taste in my mouth and was qute worried this morning after brushing my teeth, spat out yellow (hmmmm) and my pee smells.

I've been getting bloated, slight back pains, cramps and pains before my breast bone but could be ovulation pains but can't be sure as my first two cycles since I came off the pill were 28 days, after that my cycles have been longer, also unsure I can predict my Ovulation day cause of this.

This is my week window of opportunity, not going to bother testing as I think it'd be a waste of time and money. Surely if I consider my different cycles and just calculate this into days I might be fertile that might work. We'll see.

Reply by rachel07 » Jul. 3, 2012 5:01am Hi koosh1980 Hehe you made smile Think us ladies are so desperate to get pregnant we try our best to find a symptom. What are we like? Men have it so easy!! This is our 4th time ttc after a MC. I have only just started using opk this cycle. I started using them when I was on CD8. On CD11 I got a Smiley Face. We BD last night just in case, and maybe tonight if Im not too tired. My dates told me I would O on CD15, strange really! So maybe I am getting my dates wrong :( We will just have to see! So I am on CD12, long time to wait! What CD are you on? Rach Report	rachel07 Posts: 24

Reply by koosh1980 » Jul. 3, 2012 2:56pm I know, isn't it a nightmare!!!! I'm glad I made you laugh, got to find something positive about this. I'm glad you replied as it's hard to talk to friends about this and they are probably sick of me moaning about my 'ghost' symptoms. Ok, you have to help me...I'm bad with these abbreviations. I know what TTC, CD and O mean and that's about it....what's MC (mis-carriage??) and BD?? I've not bothered with an OPK this cycle as I didn't really know when to test so I just used the Ov. calculator for a 28 and 32 day cycle and just covered all days by (BD, I'm guessing that's ' ' LOL). Apparently best fertile day for me was CD13. Our window is over now which I think my husband is quite happy with as I think he was starting to think it was a bit of a chore...it was quite funny. I'm on CD16. Is this your TTC #1? Report	koosh1980 Posts: 30

Reply by rachel07 » Jul. 4, 2012 3:33am Hi Koosh, Yeah I know what you mean, I don't really like talking to my friends about it cos I feel sort of stupid! I like coming on to this site, cos everyone is in the same boat! I'm using my IPad at the moment to type and it's bloody hard work, keep making spelling mistakes and it's taking me ages to write something! The abbreviations for TTC, MC and others are shown on the right hand side of this web page I didn't have a clue either want they were, hehe x I have a 11 year old with my previous relationship. We have a 6 year old with my husband to be, and now we are TTC again as he wants another! I'm 34 too, so getting a bit old! So your CD16, when are you going to test? I hope it is your month for you Rach Report	rachel07 Posts: 24

Reply by rachel07 » Jul. 6, 2012 3:46am Morning Koosh, Im really sorry, I have been soooo busy! I hope your OK today? I did read your message in my inbox, and can't believe you will be testing in FIVE days and do you think you will cave in and test early? You have been really tired, which is a good chance you are pregnant!! I am not sure about the sharp pain your getting above your base line on your spine! So yeah, the kids had Transition day at school, School play's going on. Suppose to be Sports Day today, but this has been called off, as its absolutely throwing it down - i am from the UK by the way x As i have been so busy with work and kids, I have not had time to think about my symptoms. I was really tired last night, not sure if this is a symptom or because i have been very busy...we will have to see. It is sooo nice to have a Buddy, and you seem really nice too!

Reply by koosh1980 » Jul. 6, 2012 1:56pm Hi Rach No worries, I didn't mean to bother you, just thought maybe you'd had some changes!! I feel bad as I can't reallyl help you and feel like our chats are all one sided...this is all new to me and am clueless! I'm okay today. I thought maybe I was getting some changes in my breasts today...can they swell in the morning and then deflate by the evening??? LOL, I think I'm just imagining it. I feel like a turd!!!...and as for the being really tired, I think it could just be I was busy at work, with it being so humid it exhausted me as fine today. You seem really nice and friendly don't feel stupid talking to you, I'm really enjoying talking to you too. Where about in the UK are you from? What do you do (work wise), if you don't mind me asking (send me msg with answers). I don't know about the testing subject, kind of don't want to set myself up for a bit let down with a BFN (getting this jargon stuff) as have done in the past. Koosh x Report	koosh1980 Posts: 30

Reply by koosh1980 » Jul. 6, 2012 2:59pm Hi Ambrlynn Looking back do you think you had any of the same symptoms with your other two pregnancies?? Planning is very stressful and don't know if my symptoms are real or just imagining them just cause I want the changes to happen. What CD and DPO are you on?? Koosh Report	koosh1980 Posts: 30

Reply by koosh1980 » Jul. 6, 2012 4:48pm I'm glad you're starting to eat. Maybe the worry and stress has had something to do with it. I was starting to think that maybe I could have signs but now I think of it mabybe it's AF starting to show signs....last month I was also very quick tempered and wasn't myself (didn't like feeling like that) and it was AF. I thought you got PMS (been really bad since coming off the pill) only a few days before but I think in my case it's a week or two before???? Report	koosh1980 Posts: 30

Reply by rachel07 » Jul. 10, 2012 6:04am Hi Ladies x Welcome ambrlynn your symtoms sound promising to me hun! When will you be testing? Hi again Koosh, i have been really busy but think I am back to normal with days now, hopefully. I was at a gymnastics Festival on Sunday, and on Monday I went to Skipton Castle with my Daughters School Year. I was that tired I went straight to bed from school I work mornings now, just 9 till 12 dinner. Love my little job, I get to go home at dinner and clean before picking the kids up from school. I am from Yorkshire! Where are you from in the UK? Koosh you will be testing soon won't you? i hope its a I will keep my Fingers crossed! Yet again been too busy to notice any symptoms. I have felt really tired, but I always feel like that! I am not too sure my dates are right either, as I ovulated early at CD11. We will have to see untill next Friday 20th July when the should come, hopefully she doesnt!! Keep us posted Girls xx Rach Report	rachel07 Posts: 24

Reply by koosh1980 » Jul. 10, 2012 12:46pm Hi guys Ambrlynn, how are you feeling after the w/end? Rachel07, I can imagine you being very busy with the kids on holiday for the summer. How are things with you? I have given up all hope at the moment of any BNPs. I just am not feeling anything anymore although terrible hearburn and just very tired today. Friday night was awful, manged to get some sleep and had about 3 hours in total and surprisingly still wide awake til bed time on Saturday. Apart from that all I can think about is eating, but not always hungry so put it off as long as I can, then I just can't stop. Today feel bloated and feeling ovary pains. I don't know about testing on Saturday although I found some test strips in Poundland so guess not as stingy with doing a test, apparently they do work! I'm from Glasgow x Report	koosh1980 Posts: 30
