Wishful thinking?
Hi, i'm not sure how early it is possible to get symptoms? My af is due in four days so I know I am way too early and I feel a bit ridiculous for building my hopes up. I feel like I have been inflated by a bicycle pump, keep feeling sick and my boobs are all of a sudden ginourmous! (well, a lot bigger than their usual pancake size) and I nearly cried at the London marathon coverage about three times. I know they look like pre menstrual symptoms as well but I definately feel a bit odd. Do I just need to get a life/hobby? :roll:

its not def pmt unless af shows.have you thought about buying a clearblue.you can test about 4 days before af due with those.dont worry about having a life hun,if youre on here youve reached the stage that all that matters is white sticks lol...(apart from other halves and kids)xx
Its really hard to not get your hopes up isn't it. Do you normally get any of these symptoms with your normal period and PMT type of things?
I think when trying to conceive its really hard not to be watching your body for any changes or signs.
As for a hobby do anything I saythat makes you relax as they say the more relaxed we are the better our chances of conceiving are are the only only advice Ican give I am afraid but fingers crossed for you that its this month

Do you think shoe shopping could be considered an acceptably relaxing hobby?
I know what you mean though about looking at your body and wishful thinking I am 2 days late now and despite promising myself that I wouldn't get hopes up, I have just spent the last hour on the web looking at pregnancy diaries about what to expect in the first few weeks Just as well OH is at the gym or he would be telling me off!

Am going to take a leaf out of your book and exercise some self restraint on the testing too. Will wait until the weekend. Good luck.
u strong to wait to weekend,i always start testing 6 days before hand despite the fact shes always on time..am trying concieve 4th baby for over 2 years now.is this ur first..?
We are trying for our first however we have only been properly trying for a very short while (6 weeks) so I probably am jumping the gun a bit. That said I am not sure I will make it to the weekend to test, might wait 'till Thursday......or Wednesday......
Well I had my dates a bit wrong and thought AF was due this coming Friday but it was actually due yesterday so I did a clearblue test yesterday and got a BFN - bah humbug!
Still no AF but think I am probably just late so have ordered myself the Zita West how to concieve book to make myself feel better - oh well, back on the horse!
