Hey you sound like me.. I posted my "symptoms" under chit chat go read them.. lol I understand about not saything anything until you know for sure. My advice is to save you money wait until you know AF is late or not coming and then test. Otherwise you may spend too much on pg tests and that can be really discouraging if she shows up (believe me I know). Best luck, maybe we can chat about our symptoms sometime. :)

Oh god I am in the same boat as you I just posted A few mins ago my Lmp was 10-11 too how long are your cycles? Mine are only 26 days so I am late but I feel like it will come anyday now. I told my dh and I wish I didn't because I still am not 100% sure but I told him that, we just tell eachother every thing so I couldn't keep it from him but my advice don't tell. I did get a + though so I hope it is true. Good luck. keep in touch

Hi,

I'm in the same boat as yourself. I got my last pd the 11 october and always get them on a friday or saturday, but they still havn't come. I am experiencing tender breasts and wind and using the toilet alot also!! I've decided that I'm gonna do a test tomorrow if my pd hasn't come. I would be happy if i were pg as i love children and would love one of my own. Does that sound stupid? Well best of luck, it's great to know your not alone. This is the nicest chat room i've ever been to. Everyone is so nice and supportive.

It is so nice to know that people are in the same boat as you, an not to know that your thinking your late or your going slightly mad..

My bf and me are not trying for a baby, and even if turns out that we are not pregnant, he will never know any different and i will of learnt an alot from this room.

Thank you all so much for you answers and support, it is most appreciated!! even though my bf has not idea about this, it is nice to share it all with people who are in the same situation.

Still feel the same as i did yesterday and the day before. I must admit i have bad wind and those butterflies are still there..... i get very small cramps but they are minor and i think it is mostly wind... otherwise i am fine.. oh ONE more thing.. MY right nipple is very itchy.. i feel like i have to keep pinching it..lol

thanks

Ive had lots of "wind" too lol and burping. I swear its all in my head but even my sweetie has noticed the wind and burping lol. And he says I am moody and asked me if it was time for AF and I said nope. Its not supposed to be here until the 20th and I have a long way til then it sucks.

I've got the butterflies too. I feel them often, and the minor cramping and temp rises. Also, have noticed milk glands around the areolas, not sure if they were always there and I am just now noticing them or what.

I havent felt an ovulation yet, I think I missed her because she came early and I wasn't watching. Then I thought maybe it was yesterday but Im still feeling all weird today and the usual ov symptoms aren't in place.

Someone mentioned having a hard lower tummy, how hard is yours? Mine is definitely more firm than usual but its not like impossible to press on lol it just makes it feel weird when I do. I'm beginning to wonder if maybe I got pg last month and had a period because my body hadnt detected it yet? Because it seems impossible for these symptoms to be in place if it happened this month. If that makes sense. Even if I ovulated early my lmp was Oct 20th-24th. So it's jsut barely around my ov time now.. so maybe it happened last month. I did remember that my actual bleeding days were only 2 last month. The rest was that icky brown creamy discharge stuff lol (sorry I know thats gross).

But I am going to wait until AF either shows or doesnt come because I have had similar things happen before and it was so disappointing. I want children, and so does DH but I think he will always say that he isnt ready until the day he sees that test lol. He can be skiddish but I see him watch little kids and the twinkle in his eye. He is going to be a wonderful dad. But I will also be alright if Im not I just wish I could get my mind off of it.. then maybe it would go away, but yesterday I worked and didnt think abotu it at all and I still felt the same lol. Anyways this si long and I better go. Talk to all you girls later :)

I am in the same situation. This would be my 3rd child (if it is in fact happening). My first pregnancy was sick as a dog, thats how I knew with him. My daughter, boobs were killing me!!! (she by the way took 5 years to conceive). Now we decided to go for #3, one try and I'm the edge. I still cant tell for sure. Not expecting period for another week but I feel it. Same thing, wind, butterflys, cramps, nausea sometimes, and the right boob is always throbbing. I guess we will see

I have the same symptoms. I didn't realize wind (gas) was a symptom. I'm due for AF November 13. UGH the waiting is the worst. My bb's hurt after laying down or taking my bra off. Good luck!
