Does anyone else have cold symptoms? UGH I've had this runny nose and sore throat for a day or so now. Along with my body aches and nausea it's making me a very uncomfortable person. :-(


runnershirl - June 11th, 2009 11:00 AM

Really busy day for em today too...but I wanted you to know that the headaches that I thought I had the first week are NOTHING compared to the migraine I've had since yesterday. I went home early from work and feel nauseated too (and not that lil ole lump in the throat I first felt, but like something might actually come up...ugh)...Ihope this is due to surge in hormones as in maybebaby...but then again, I often get migraines before AF. Hope that's not it. It's a little early since AF isn't due til next week. What can I take? I went to bed at 6:30pm til 8am aside from my bowl of cereal for dinner and there's still a little man in my head with a hammer! ugh. I also noticed stuffed up nose.

Fitz~ For some ppl, i hear they get cold like symptoms when prego because the hormones effect our nasal mucous. hope that's it.

Krissy~Again, don't get bummed until you have to...At this point (with the hot flashs and chills I've been feeling) one can't necessarily say that your temp dive was from AF--ya never know...besides, if she shows, you'll have time to be bummed then...that's my opinion anyhow..hold on to hope while you can...besides, i'm suddenly realizing that if I am prego, this body has it's own agenda...lol.

Ash~It's good to have you here. Yes, I keep reminding myself that it all happens in "HIS" timing...but, like you, I feel like (hope that) it's my time...I've been trying to put my life in order spiritually. And if it isn't, I'll have to keep trying.

Gotta run girls...what do I take besides acetametaphin? Anything? ugh. Do you think this "surge" sounds promising or is it too hard to tell..oh, yes...I did another hpt and it was neg...but, again,I'm still too early...Just thought the the surge in my head would show on the stick, but apparently I was wrong. Have a good day gals.

hi all
today my 5 days r up.. hcg 2.. but only one spot everyday.. what is it?? why i am not hving periods.. i never had spotting since teenage... and that also if i wipe otherwise itself it doesnt come on my pants....
what should i do? i have to start my 4 5 medicines for peptic ulcer...diagnosed yesterday...i know i am not preg but where is AF.
can i use clomid? anyone can tell me how to use it and deatil about it.
spotting for 4 days how i will get to know about my ovulation this month if i dont feel symptoms for that how i will count? from which day? spotting or wait for af to count ovulation?



DUDA - June 11th, 2009 11:58 AM

Elove~ I am sorry to hear about AF showing up...like you told me, if it doesn't happen this time you still got plenty of other months to try!!! so just keep your head up and stay positive. we all are here for you. Let us know when you start your new ttw!!!
runner~you are so inspiring!!! you are a good natured person and i am positive that you will become pregnant
fitzerin~ i had some cold symptoms last cycle and i thought for sure that i was preggo but it turned out i wasn't. so did elove. but i hope this not the case with you
michelleishopeful~ PLEASE do not let the doctors feed you that nonsense. GOD has the last say so. And ONLY GOD!!As long as you stay hopeful and prayerful there is nothing that he cant over turn!!
As far as me...i haven't really had any signs except what i hope and believe to have been implantation bleeding. i have also had slight cramps and my cm keeps changing from ewcm to creamy. af should be hera 6/14 or 6/15 so if i can hold out and she doesn't come then i will be testing wednesday morning...so look for that BFP post
Have anyone heard of the baby pshyic cheri22?????


runnershirl - June 11th, 2009 12:18 PM

Thanks Duda. I hope you're right and i get bfp.

I didn't see a post from Michele--but one thing is clear--we must be advocates for our own health...research on your own any med questions you have so you can challenge drs. They're only human too. Haven't heard about psychic cheri22--who is she--tell us about her.

Naz~ I don't know what to say...your questions are specific and I'm not sure any of us here are qualified to answer them for you, but we can point you in the right direction. My advice would be--1) get ovul pred kit to test your ovul if you can't tell on your own--that's what I do; 2) go to a local woman's clinic for free prego test to be safe and if neg, start your meds. Or, call the dr. who prescribed your meds and ask them. Can't tell you about the spotting--don't know.


DUDA - June 11th, 2009 1:07 PM

Cheri22 is a baby physchic that can tell you when or if you have concieved. she even told me what my first child would be like. if you want to check her out go to cheri22 dot com
naz~ to know if or when you ovulate you may want to check for ewcm


naz - June 11th, 2009 1:09 PM

what is ewcm?:)



DUDA - June 11th, 2009 1:11 PM

ewcm is when you get cervix mucus that looks like egg whites. you will see this right before you ovulate


runnershirl - June 11th, 2009 1:17 PM

Duda~that reminds me, I've forgotten what type of cm one should have, if any, when prego...I found thru this forum a site once listed where a lady showed (pretty graphically, but educational) a webpage documenting each day of the woman's cycle. I just don't remember it all. I think, correct me if I'm wrong, that the cervix should be low and closed? And that cm should nonexistent? My cm is either dry or light...


DUDA - June 11th, 2009 1:19 PM

Runner i have heard of people having lotion like discharge!!!!


DUDA - June 11th, 2009 1:36 PM

Runner to add to your question i read that your cervix is supposed to be high and closed


runnershirl - June 11th, 2009 2:15 PM

Hmmmmm....Now I really wonder. I'm cramping too. I didn't check position of my cervix, but the cm is nonexistent, or slight hints of creamy, but not enough to talk about. strange. ugh. I guess the good lord gives us the 2ww to see if this is what we really want because the torture of making us wait to know is absolutely hell...darned that eve for eating the apple! hehe


HappyAsh - June 11th, 2009 5:16 PM

Hi ladies!

Well...still cramps on and off, still low back pain,and still spotting when wiping only, and inconsistent, which has been since sunday. Af is due either 13 or 15th. Got nauseas(sp?) for the first time today. I have decided to test tomorrow, so we will see! I had a dream, two dreams actually, last night about my baby. Once it was a boy, and once it was a girl. I looked down and my belly was all flabby and bloated b/c I had just had my baby. It was such an amazing feeling when I woke up this morning, I really felt like a mommy! I am remaining hopeful, and faithful. I hope you are all well!
Ash


Krissy68 - June 11th, 2009 5:42 PM

Hey ladies AF found me at 3am. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers and of course I am keeping my fingers cross as well. We really need some BFP. Krissy68


runnershirl - June 11th, 2009 5:54 PM

Hey girls...AF just found me too!! Explains the migraine and cramps. It's one full week early...but she came in 3 weeks last month too..I'm unsure whether to start iui again right away or to wait and make sure this isn't just implanation. I'm convinced though that this is as a result of me not being on progesterone. They all knew I'd need it and I have a pituitary tumor, so without keeping prog up, my body signals itself to start AF...I just hope that it is either extra, but didn't cause mc. I'll put my foot down to begin the progesterone asap for next round. (deep sigh)


elove27 - June 12th, 2009 10:00 AM

sorry im just posting u guys. thanks for all of the encouragement.

Runnershirl- you are so right. Im just going to think of the good things i can do even though im not pregnant. Like my BDAy is the 28th and of course I have to have me a drink ...lol couldnt do that if i was pregnant . Our time will come and its coming soon

Thats for all of us
