Tam - you are pregnant right? What were your symptoms of pregnancy before it was confirmed by BFP?

Believe it or not babe, it was the one month I had NO symptoms at all, but...............

I did go giddy in the shower and nearly fell out a couple of times, and the clencher was when I was shopping in Tesco's and I had bad backache, I decided to do a test when I got home...........the best bit was, we were looking at baby clothes in Tesco's (nephew's B'day) and I said, "how about getting the clothes and not worrying about having a baby" (only coz they are so cute LOL). I got my BFP that same day so I get the clothes & the baby

I know it is easier said than done, but do your best to try and take it in your stride, I swear by not being obsessive.......as the month I was we didn't catch!

Best of luck babe!

Hi Tam,

Thanks for the advice. I must say i started off this month not being obsessive - then I hit the TWW and it has been a bit stressul. I went to my fam doctor cos i was sure I had ovulated EWCM, mood change, cramps etc... but my temps went up and then back down and then up again (i'm new at charting) and it got me all stressed out. She said to me that I know my body and I know what EWCM is and that is the sign i should go by. SHe told me to stop charting which I did. It made me feel so much better not to be taking my temp in the morning... it was making me paranoid and stressed and I examined my things too much.

So i got better - then wham two week wait, started to get abd cramping and got all obsessive about baby symptoms.

I guess in some ways I am more relaxed... when I am at home I don't think about it much - but at work - i think about it all the time - i have a lot of time to think at work.

Only time will tell I guess.

Thanks for your advice. I think next month I will try not to think about it too much

Ooh me too, I like my job and the people I work with but Its so quiet and I'm in the office alone quite a lot (hence so many daytime posts ) so I have tons of time to myself to think. I so can't wait for that maternity break

I know what you mean. I only use these things at work. I can do it between all my other jobs and it doesnt interfere with work too much.

It is easy to get on here and start searching the net for different things.

Hang in there hun - i am sure we will get BFP at some point - soon hopefully

I know it is easier said than done hun, but try to make yourself busy, what about decorating a new room or getting a project on the go, so you are more wrapped up in that then TTC?! I was lucky as I had a lot on my mind that month, and it took over the TTC, I had actually found a lump (99% chance it is all OK) but I was thinking and worrying about that, so TTC was not my main priority for the month. Although I made sure we BD every night, but I also used that to take my mind off of other things.......as far as Paul was concerned, we were not even trying that month as I was so obsessed the month before, he was really pleased I was giving myself a break.........so really all of the stress was taken out of TTC!


I then got told the lump was nothing to worry about...............then BINGO with a BFP!!!

I really wish you all the best of luck!!

First of all - i am glad that your lump turned out to be nothing worrysome.

Second of all - i will try to take your advice. Did you still come on here or did you even take a break from this?

I don't think I will be able to come on this our bounty if I am trying not to think about it - they both get me really involved in it... what would you recommend?

Congratulations on your BFP. Send any remaining baby dust that you have to me

Thanks hun

No I still came on here, as you can have a good laugh and still forget about things........just stay out of the TTC forum and hang around in the General natter bit..........the girls are great and you can just let your hair down. Not only that if yo uatre having a bad day, feel free to have a good rant, you soon feel better with the support on here!

That's how I did it anyway.......just kept me mentally active, sent me bonkers in the process, but hey ho! :wink:
