Thats great Big J, Try drinking water it reduces blood pressure apparently! Hope your flight goes OK.
Sandra - I'm sleeping like a baby always have tho. Try a hot bath and cocoa before bed to try and relax.
I still have no symptoms except sore boobs, and am still quite relaxed really, I'll turn into a wreck next week!
I'm back at work so my minds busy and I only work 3 days a week, so a day out at wacky warehouse planned for fri, with friends, then I have to spend weekend with a dh who is so stressed with the wait!
Thinking of you all

OMG - you were talking about dreams yesterday as well!!!
Make sure you get plenty of rest today to catch up won't you?
To all you 2wwers - hope you are looking after yourselves and getting loads of R&R. Remember you don't have to do a thing - this is your time to take it easy.
Sending you all loads of PMA, hugs and Baby Dust.

Thanks for checking in, Sandra. I'm here, but trying not to be a pill for everyone because all I do is worry. Last night while reading in bed before going to sleep I felt nausea and I was siked (esp because Katy was nauseous and she had a +ve), but today I'm feeling somewhat crampy off and on again. Hoping it's the progesterone... I'm on day 8 now; 6 more days to go...
I guess I'm just someone who feels like if I were pregnant (it would be such an ENORMOUS thing!), I would know! I would be giddy with delight or something. There would be a sign!!!

Sorry, I got the wrong quote for that last post of mine. I'm going to try again and see if the quote is correct.
You do make me smile emily most of us have post-its all over our monitors to keep up with everything, as I am over 40 I decided I was allowed to have a notebook
Don't worry about posting when you're down, that's what we are all here for, to support eachother, so moan and worry out load if you need to

I'm on day 7 but only test on day 19 so I know where you're coming from!
I know its hard but try to relax. My last ICSI was positive and I agree with Katy in that all the symptoms of pregnancy and AF are the same. I am trying not to think about it too much, I think coming on here helps coz I see people further back in their treatment and I'm just so glad that I've made it this far!
Fingers crossed for you

Hi Susie ... I would LOVE a hot bath, but I'm going with Zita and denying myself ... (I'm glad she doesn't mention carrot cake ! ..). The cocoa sounds like a good idea .. well, I'm not into cocoa, but I'll try a malt drink tonight. I've heard of Wacky Warehouse, but don't know what/where it is ??
Emily .. Don't you worry about being down .. most of us on the 2ww are emotional wrecks, and feel just this way at some point. Take the nausea as being a good sign until proven otherwise. Don't worry about the cramps - I'm on day 8 too, and I've had cramps on and off today. Unlike you though, I've another 9 days to go. My hospital test on day 17/18. I know what you mean about there being a sign .. but just think about the thousands of folk who get pregnant and don't even realise it until they are a few weeks gone ..

Sand:
I'm still here.... Thanks for checking on me. I have just been really busy at work and have not had much of a chance to chat.
Emily Rose:
I have also been feeling a little nausea as well as small cramps off and on. I was wondering if it was the Progesterone as well? Is that supposed to be a side effect? I thought maybe it was symptoms of pregnancy. I don't usually feel like this before AF. My breasts are also very full.... Is that a side effect of Progesterone as well?
Gosh I can't wait..............
_____________________
Yes, I have read that progesterone can cause sore boobs, cramping, as well as nausea. I'm pretty convinced now that at least come of my crampy feelings and abdominal uncomfortability is being caused by the progesterone. I worry more when I start to get AF feelings like a general malaise. When I feel cramping like of the type when I have the flu (more like indigestion), that bothers me less and I believe it's the progesterone.
Even though progesterone can cause nausea, I'm still pleased with any nausea I feel because at least it's something and it's NOT something I get with AF.
I see you are testing a day after me! Here's to it turning out wonderfully for both of us!
Hey all! I was feeling pretty good with my symptoms but now that I have read more about progesterone and it's side effects, I had a little break down cry... I know I probably just emotional, but man this is really hard. I feel for everyone going through this right now.
Best wishes to everyone!

Hey Mil .. Don't be disheartened ... All these symptoms are here just to confuse us !! Being emotional, especially during the 2nd week of 2ww is normal, so don't worry. You're over half way there now ..!!

Here I was wishing for symptoms, but now that my adominal pains and nausea are coming in increasing waves and spurts of uncomfortability, I'm wondering what the heck is going on! I don't feel like I'm pregnant; I feel like I'm dying of some horrible disease. Starting to wonder even if I should call my clinic. (Though even with my French pretty darn good, or so I'm told, it's always hard to understand and be understood over the phone in French!)
