DUDA - Thank you for the welcome to the group. Congratulation on your wedding anniverssay and tomorrow is my birthday I will be 41.

elove27 - How are you feeling today? Did you get rid of your headach I finally did.

simplegirl - Good Luck tomorrow and I hope AF don't show up and I am keeping my fingers cross.

Well girls I just wanted to let you know I will not be on tomorrow I took off on my day job so I can renew my DL since it expire on my birthday and I have a eye appointment. Not really doing anything special because I have to work my night job. Take care. Krissy68


simplegirl - June 2nd, 2009 8:23 PM

KRISSY- thanks i hope she stays away too :) ive been having a few cramps here and there so im pretty sure AF will be here just a matter of time though. ugh i woke up with an ugly cold sore this morning and havent had one in over a year. HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY KRISSY


elove27 - June 3rd, 2009 7:54 AM

Headache has ceased a little but not fully gone. I just really feel like a bad cold is coming on. But Im scared to take any meds until I know for sure whats going on so I hope im suffering for a good reason :) How is everyone else doing this morning



simplegirl - June 3rd, 2009 4:40 PM

ELOVE- well you know i have heard of alot of women saying they felt they were getting the flu or a cold before they realized they were just pregnant.

As for me, AF due today and still no sign of her yet :) half the day is gone already. && i normally getting spotting a day or two before and haven't seen that either. the only thing i have noticed today were my BBs feel full and kind of tingle i have no more cramping and no more headaches.


elove27 - June 3rd, 2009 5:56 PM

well i sure hope its a good sign because I have been feeling this way since 1-2 dpo. every morning I have to spit a whole lot after I brush my teeth because it seems like I have so much saliva in my mouth. Cycle is not due until 06/07 which is sunday but Im not testing until at least wednesday or so. I will let you guys know how everything goes.


simplegirl - June 3rd, 2009 6:43 PM

ELOVE-how many dpo are you? i know a female personally who thought she had the flu for weeks and went to the DR to get it taken care of and they told her she was pregnant so you never know.

still no AF here, very very mild cramps could even be imagining them..BBs still full and tingly feeling. so i'm just waiting around i think if AF dosen't show by friday or saturday i will test.


elove27 - June 3rd, 2009 7:08 PM

Im apporox 10 dpo. I know I probably could test now but I want to see if I will miss my cycle first before getting let down or getting my hopes to far up. To many times I have done that so this month Im practicing patience



simplegirl - June 3rd, 2009 7:12 PM

ELOVE- yeah i would wait too cause i know what you mean. i think it was 10dpo i had a mini glob of EWCM. but i didn't feel sick or anything like that. i also think i started getting cramps around that time. but the cold thing sounds pretty good for 10dpo. any other symptoms?


runnershirl - June 3rd, 2009 10:18 PM

Hey girlie girl...about to go to sleep...which reminds me, are any of you exceptionally tired? I am normally a night owl and last night I went to sleep at 10:30 (as opposed to 12 or 1 or 2) and got up at 7:30, and here it is 10pm and I'm already yawning with crocodile tears!

Here I am 4dpiu...watery cm, tender boobs, frequent urination, headache the other day, random lower abdomen pains(dull), some hip muscles/joints sore (from walking dog I think), sneezing regularly, emotionally sensitive, difficult paying attention, impatience--haha--ok,that's because of the 2ww! lol I'm tired of waiting already!

Simplegirl-how'd it go today?
Krissy-I hope you had a good birthday..I had a mellow anniversary with the dh.
Duda-Happy birthday to you also--sorry I missed that today...

*yawn*...it's ridiculous that it's only 4dpiui...but, I read somewhere that the fertility meds (gonal f, ovidrel and femara) can cause pregnancy like symptoms too. Let's hope I get the baby along with the symptoms! I don't think I'll be able to wait and test...Oh, I did a ocuple old O tests to see if they can tell..but it's not consistent...I ordered HPT online so that I will at least have to wait a few days for it to arrive, and I will get a few for the same price as 1 at the store...Let's hope that holds me back until hormones are stronger. Baby dust and night night.


simplegirl - June 3rd, 2009 11:25 PM

RUNNER-hey ive read stories about females having immediate symptoms plus ive been sneezing out of control these last two weeks but that could just be allergies so i didn't think nothing of it. but the symptoms you do have sound pretty good. oh yeah i'm a night owl also and i had an early night but only once and i think it was 11 or 12 dpo.

so officially here in another 30 minutes AF will be a day late :) and i believe ive traded in the mild cramping for a really bad headache..been a long time since i had one this bad i just hope im not getting sick for the beginning of the summer.


DUDA - June 4th, 2009 8:23 AM

Hey Ladies
Simplegirl--glad to hear AF didn't show her ugly face!!!
ELOVE-- make sure when you test u let us know
RUNNER--- I think you did it!!!!!!


elove27 - June 4th, 2009 9:17 AM

Morning ladies. Well Im feeling a little better this morning but still have the "cold" DH really thinks I am. At first I wasnt going to tell him I think Im pregnant but he said something about it the other night and this morning he was just looking at me asking me if I felt better. I told him a little but still wasnt at my best. He then was like, I didnt look like myself so I went ahead and told him. I think I may be pregnant but Im not sure. He just looked at me and said " well if you are, I will be so happy" so I hope and pray this is our time.


runnershirl - June 4th, 2009 9:48 AM

E-love-I know what you mean about telling DH...I keep telling myself that I'm not taking him on this rollercoaster ride WITH me because he's already down about other things...and it's hard enough for one of us, but, with hormones and potential excitement, I just cannot keep it in now matter how hard I try. So, I too have told him. I can see that he's keeping a better handle on things. He has told me that he didn't expect it would take the first 1-2-3 times...so if it does, bonus.

Duda--I sure hope you're right and it took. I slept from 11pm til 7:30, got in the shower and decided how tired I was and wanted to go back to sleep. Boobs still tender and it looks like nips MIGHT have darker red spots...again, this could be me LOOKING for changes. As for the sleep, I did get awakened 3 times in there, so it's possible it wasn't "good" sleep.

Simplegirl~I hope you were able to keep AF away (as though we have any control other than bding..haha)

Krissy, I'm sorry I simply couldn't wait on a test..I found a left over HPT at home and took it this morning, knowing full well that it was way too early, and of course it was a BFN...but I'm not surprised. It'd be a miracle if it showed a BFP at only 4dpiui (4dpo)...But, I was like a kid in a candy store and couldn't resist...How soon can I test and I'll plan this with you. My mailorder tests should be here in a few days and my progesterone test at dr's is Monday...by the way, what's the code for "dr"?

Happy (is today Wed or Thurs?...lol)...Well have a good day. *hot flash*


elove27 - June 4th, 2009 9:59 AM

yes! and the other day he yelled at me and I started crying. I have always been a water bag but it seemed like as soon as he said something the tears just started flowing. I was like OMG. I cant believe im crying...so funny


DUDA - June 4th, 2009 10:21 AM

Hey ladies I can relate to the not wanting to tell the dh. But it is so hard not to. I have also told him that i think i may be pregnant. and he is so excited. I really hope i am preggo...it would really hurt him.all day yesterday I slept and had a headache that i can not get rid of. this morning it's back with some nausea.and me and dh went for a walk and after 10 minutes of walking my pelvic bone felt like it was going to give up on me....weird!!!!!!!1


runnershirl - June 4th, 2009 11:44 AM

Oh, I forgot to mention...have you had heartburn? I had it the other day and woke up at 3am again with really bad heartburn...under the sternum...never had that before. I'm keeping in mind that all my symptoms could be related to the fertil meds, but is that one of them? Did any of you ladies take fertil meds?

Elove, I cry easily anyway, but every since I started meds 6 weeks ago, yup...i cry at everything. I cry just THINKING about being a mommy. (So, we're not going to think about tht right now. hehe)

Duda~I forget, what day are you? You didn't do iui, right, it's dpo? I think, it seems you are all a couple days ahead of me? So, are you talking about the pelvic bone directly above your girlie parts? I've never felt that bone hurt. eek. my right hip muscle was hurting yesterday, the one lying on top opf the front of your hip? Strange. I can see why I'm having strange symptoms since the fertil meds cause them, they say, but if you ladies didn't do them, your symptoms could very well be related to pregnancy...Let's hope so and that mine are too.
