I'm due to test on 24th but my hubby is away next week so not testing until 27th when be gets back, if I make it that far.

This is cycle 5 ttc number 1.

I'm swaying between convinced I am and convinced I'm not. Blush

Good luck ladies! Smile

I came off the pill in July but my cycle was all over the place until the last two months. Every month since stopping the pill I've been convinced I was pregnant and always been crushingly dissapointed. Fingers crossed ladies x

I'm due 28th. Third cycle (first of really trying!!); trying for number 1. No symptoms at all, even pretend ones!

Yes I'm in, due anytime from 25th thanks to slightly wonky cycle. Feeling it's very unlikely partly due to cycle not settling down so it was difficult to be sure when I ov'd, plus it's just been a really busy month so haven't DTD as much as we should've. But clinging onto a tiny bit of hope, just waiting to see if AF turns up. Good luck everyone x

Hi Ladies - normally have a perfect 28 day cycle and would be due on the 28th but last month AF showed 4 days early (very unusual for me) and I appear to have ovulated earlier this month. So due from 24th onwards I think. Also not holding out much hope as hubby was working away at the important time so managed it only once when it mattered! Doesn't stop me obsessing though! Have had cramping for a week and sore boobs but had that last month so who knows? I very stupidly keep giving into my POAS obsession! Negatives all the way of course as its still too early. This is cycle two of TTC no three by the way. Good luck to everyone ! x

I've got sore boobs (which I don't get with my period) but not sure if I'm imagining it!

Pickles that sounds promising! Just throbbing slightly crampy in one side of tummy but that's v likely to be AF on its way...

I've just realised I've got my dates mixed up! I'm actually due AF on 25th not 28th!

Yes but I've woken with a bloated and painful tummy so think AF will arrive any day

Hi all, can I gatecrash? I'm due on 29th. Second cycle of ttc number 2 since I miscarried last year. I've had a raging thirst since Saturday which I had with both previous pregnancies so am feeling hopeful but trying not to get my hopes up. I'm desperate to be pregnant again, two of my closest friends are and one is due the day after my baby would have been due.

Fingers crossed for everyone.

Pickles, me too, feel AF is imminent but let's hang in there together!

Welcome fox, sorry to hear of your mc, fingers crossed this is your lucky cycle.

Hello Foxsticks

Is it weird I'm trying to not go for a wee until I'm really desperate because I'm worried once I'm there I'll discover AF has arrived?! Argh I'm going mad.

Hi ladies,
Af due 29th although cycle is all over the place so who knows.
Breasts have been slightly aching but not sure if thats because af is due.
Also this might sound strange but I don't need the toilet but then all of a sudden I am desperate and need to go NOW. Anyone else?
Might be in my head because this the third month trying to concieve after having to wait two years after miscarriage.

To be fair, with my two pregnancies (bearing in mind they were 12&10 yrs ago, I honestly don't remember having any symptoms before testing. I was ttc with both and tested on day of missed AF and it wasn't until I was around 6-8 that I had any pregnancy related signs like nausea or tender breasts or needing to wee a lot.

Although I do remember having a lot of cramping pains in early pregnancy. They really felt like AF was on the way but it was implantation pains. I instantly knew I was pregnant last year when I drank a Starbucks and it tasted horrible and made me feel ill. I couldn't drink coffee at all when pregnant with dd and it was the same last time. It's not over until the fat lady sings!

Sorry I missed your last post I was thought you had said you had cramps. Symptom spotting can send you bonkers.
