Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

hi archie!!!
thanq so much for replying me. i actually ws excited when i saw ur reply..i agree with whatall u say..i hav a positive instinct towards u...so whatever u say is good for me. i had replied in my previous thread but no response from u so thought i will start a new thread.

well, abt the symptoms..i dont know if i can expect the symptoms so early..i mean its only ..mmmmmm..12days.

neways, there is 1 thing i hav noticed...the white viscous liquid that comes out during the fertile days (may be the egg in ur terms) i find this type of thing even now...which did not appear previously. cud this be counted on?
also sometimes i feel as though i am gonna faint but i dont..something like low bp..heavy head sort of. cud this symptom be the one?
also i feel hungry nowadays quite frequently and i feel there is an increase in the no. of times of urination...cud these also be the symptoms?

i know i cant expect things happening so early for me but i just had a doubt if these cud be the symptoms as these the recent changes in my body as of now.tell me about it..waiting fr ur reply. curious replied. Dear kbg,

No, you are not making any fuss about this matter...infact this is a serious issue and I can imagine what you must be feeling now...so do not hesitate to talk/discuss about it.

As I said earlier also, your symptoms are worth discussing with an experienced doctor...and I know its kind of difficult over there...so I can understand your situation. Can you talk to someone in India- like your family or a close friend and request them to talk to a gynec or may be your family doctor. They may give you some useful advise over the phone. Since it is difficult for you to locate a doctor in Japan, you can try this option...afterall something is better than nothing.

I wish you good luck for the next cycle.

Take care. curious replied. Dear kbg,

I perfectly understand your worries & concerns...I know language is a problem over there...and moreover you are alone(I mean no elders). I know it becomes really difficult sometimes ..we just don't know what to do or what to expect.

I didn't understand properly what you meant by \";3+25\";- you mean to say that your cycle is 25 days long with 3 days here & there ? Sorry, If I sound silly.

The symptoms you mentioned are actually worth noticing, specially when you experienced them for the first time and co-incidently this was the time when you were actively trying for a baby....so I think you should give a call to your gynec. Lets see what he/she says about it.

Feel free to write your doubts/queries here- we are all here to help each other.

Best wishes. curious replied.
Hi kbg,

First of all relax and do not panic.

Sorry to note your trouble....I feel everything is fine with you. Although Archie can address your query better, still I would like to say a few things reagrding the symptoms you mentioned-

1. white liquid- I too felt an increase in the amount of white discharge last month, right untill my period started (same like your case).

2. I too felt very hungry every now and then.

But I didn't experience frequent urination or rise in temp. I know each case is different, so I can't compare yours with mine, but I just thought to write to you about my experience.

I know the symptoms you mentioned can be preg symptoms, but you can never be sure- so don't always count on them. As Archie has already said- progesterone is the main pregnancy hormone, but at the same time, it plays a major role in the Luteal phase as well...so PMS & preg. symptoms are more or less similar. By the way, what is your cycle length ?

For the peace of mind, I feel there is no harm in talking to your doctor.

Lots & lots of baby dust !!
Cheer up !!

archie replied. dear kbg,
if you are a regular reader or cared to read my posts and responses to other posts then you know how I handle wait game and also even while ttc.

Like Helloandhi said, sometime when you ttc, you think a lot about the process. Besides all, the luteal phase has progesterone, which is also a pregnancy hormone and symptoms experienced towards the end of luteal phase are always confusing as to if this is a pregnancy or it's a imagination.

The best answer to you would be:
hang in there for three more days and Monday morning take a hpt if you don't get periods on Sunday. Remember by anychance you are stressed your period can be delayed and that is not due to pregnancy but mainly due to stress.

Do drink plenty of water and take small snacks, home made to satisfy hunger. Take good rest to avoid dizzy spells.

Archie helloandhi replied. Hi.. sorry for replyin when the post is for Archie. I just wanted to tell u that sometimes when u are trying ti get pregnant there are a lot of symtoms that CAN be imagined. Its very diffiucly to differentiare between the true and the false ones. The offswing of this is that periods get delayed and ur hopes get higher. So my sincere advice based on my very own experience is to remove all thots of pg and periods and be actively involved in ther things ( meet friends, read a good book, spend more time at wotrk etc ect ) ANYTHING that leaves u with little time to ponder over pregnancy.
Best of luck !
