    Lisa - dont think neg - go with your gut feeling - all will be fine and in a weeks time you will get a BFP and i will be looking forward to hearing about it!

    Munchy - oh my gosh i cant imagine how terrible it was for you to lose your little girl at 23wks. thats so sad and im sorry to hear that! This whole ovualating thing is confusing - i dont get pains - well i dont notice them if i do and i sometimes get a discharge stuff but thats not all the time and last for one day - i hope i just fall PG soon so i dont have to stress and worry about all this stuff! however u say you feel a bit sick - well i have felt slightly seedy of an afternoon so maybe that one of my signs aswell
    hope both our TTC journey wont be long and that we will ALL be PG before christmas!

    Charlotte_77 - my DH and i decided we werent going to do any test until dec - that way if we are PG we wont know so early and that it wont be such a long wait until we are 12wks "the safe stage" we found out last time at 4wks 4days so the wait was long and ended up in a bad way anyway - however on saying that - since i have had a MC - is it maybe a good idea to find out if im PG early? is there any test they can do to see if you might MC again?

    I don't think there are any tests to diagnose the risk of M/C. But if you do M/C again you can ask for test to be carried out on bub (let hope that won't be the case for any woman here).
    These days with HPT we know very early on when we end up PG, 25+ years ago a woman might just think AF was late if they had an early M/C. You would be well passed the 12 week mark if you waited till Dec to test if you fell PG this cycle. I think you might know before you test, missed AF sore BB etc.... I'm armed with my HPT, but I plan to play it by ear.

    Add day CD20 on my list for safe measure! haha
    Knowing me i wont be able to wait until december - i already want to to a test now for the hell of it - But no doubt it will come up with a BFN!
    I Cant remeber how long i was when i first noticed the signs last time - how early on can they start?

    I was 6 weeks along before I even knew I was PG (so probably not the best person to ask), but some of the symptoms I had when I look back were, very mild abdo cramping which would last for days, sore BB. When I knew I was PG, I was hungry all the time and peeing more frequenlty. I also drank more water, cause I was thirsty. I did not have any M/S or cravings

    Hi HJ
    Preg symtoms can start as early as the first week after conception. I know a girl who started m/s then and it never went away till she was 26 weeks preg. I know what you mean about not able to wait to do a HPT, as soon as I am 5 days late I do one.
    IF your af turns up this month (hope it don't) mark the day in a diary and count 12 days from that day and bd for a few days as these are the best days to do it, and then

    Cheers
    Chris

    I haven't had any symptoms as of yet - however come to think of it have been peeing alot but that might be physchological knowing me - i have been feeling a bit of abdo pain this morning and past 2 days a bit queasy of an afternoon - but i have some feeling that AF is going to arive very soon!
    so if it does i will count 12 days and start bd again and hopefully 2nd time round it will happen!
    i just want to be PG now!!!!

    Goodmorning Everyone

    I got bad news - Curiosity got the better of my yesterday and i brought a preg test - one that says you can test 5-7day before AF - and it came up with a BFN - im soooo upset - would that be acurate or is it possible that its too early to tell - yesterday was 24days after AF last visited!

    It could have just been too early. When I was pg last time, I only got a bfp 3 days after my period was late..so about 31-32 days after last period. The ones that say you can test early only have about a 50% accuracy 3 or 4 days before AF is due, and it goes up as you get closer. Don't give up hope yet!

    Goodmorning Everyone!
    CD29 and still no AF - However - i have been pretty sooky this morning and have a yucky sick feeling in stomach - so sounds like signs of the impending AF arriving very soon! not happy jan!
    Went and saw my mom at work today and her boss is 12.5wks pregs - she showed me her ultrasound pics - and than my best friend rung me to tell me about her ultrasound - she is 7wks preg and got to see heart beat - so as you can imagine its been a pretty tough day all round!
    why does it have to be so hard to fall pregnant???
    Anyway i hope you are all having a better day than me!
    Talk soon!

    P.S - Chris - are you testing any day soon?

    Hi hj. I know it can be really hard when everyone around you seems to fall pg so easily, and not have to worry. I know I get insanely jealous of my friend who has just fallen pg on her first attempt, and was still drinking, not taking vitamins, and just went with the flow. It drives me mad!

    Oh well. Af still not being here for you is a good sign hj

    Mine has come..so moving onto the next month now.

    Hello Lisa - still no AF but did my 3rd and final test today and once again it came up BNF - so i dare say 3xBFN is not a good sign - i guess my body is still trying to sort its self out after MC. i think i might be expecting too much maybe i just have to give my system some more time!
    Were you okay when AF arrived? Hope it didnt upset you too much!
    Guess we get too keep on practicing! hehe
