There's only one question on my mind: Am I pregnant? Did it happen this time? But no-one can tell me! Am only 5dpo so def no way of telling. Sitting symptom spotting and troughing down mini eggs thinking, could be pg/likely to be pms. Not even like I expect anyone to be able to give any advice or look into crystal balls...just wanted to say on here, I find it quite annoying. Roll on next week...

Yep, very annoying. I am sitting at about 4dpo and I too am sitting symptom spotting. I have felt very slightly nauseous yesterday and today which has been eased by eating something - in the rational part of my brain I know it is just usual post OV nausea, I mean implantation wouldnt even have occurred. I am also focussing on every little twinge in my uterus region and every little bit of tenderness/tingling in my boobs - PITA.

Hope you all get through your 2WW's without two much frustration and heartache and good luck for some BFPs

My partner was nice enough to humour me whilst I took us around mothercare - only window shopping mind you. He's into it as well though - looking online to find all the geeky/computer baby grows he wants to dress out child up in. Wink
AF due next Monday, POAS yesterday but negative although I know it's still really early and according to the average wouldn't even have implanted yet. Going to POAS on Saturday - hopefully it'll be a good day for both of us bex.

I think it is especially cruel that all the symptoms of very early pregnancy are pretty much identical to symptoms of impending period.

Good luck everyone.

Sorry to hear you're all over the shop, must be SO hard not to spend a fortune on FR tests and try all the time! Promised DH I won't POAS early. AF due Friday so guess I will leave it til next Saturday if the evil witch doesn't arrive. Always had a notion I'd get my first BFP on a Saturday for some reason.
Adding to symptom spotting, my boobs feel tender but different to normal pms tender....weirdness. Probably nothing but hey ho!

Fingers crossed that your DH is right then, Bex.

Am now 6 days short of the longest my cycle has recently been, so am going to try to get at least halfway there before testing.

I'm not even allowed to look at baby stuff in shops....was looking at the Next catalogue and got mushy at the newborn stuff! DH reckons it's not happened this cycle (6 days to go!) but I'm still holding out some hope!

My partner just vetoed us buying a few baby grows whilst out, not that I'm getting ahead of myself or anything...
A BFN will be very heartbreaking.

No idea! Any time between last Saturday and next Saturday. In the meantime I am firmly turning my mind away from fond fantasies of bfps and trying not to prod my boobs too much.

Same here, hi girls [friendly wave]. Think today is day 5 post ovulation for me too (but not precisely sure when it was either). Took an ultra test this morning, came back neg - was mostly expecting, implantation would probably not have occurred yet even if I was pregnant! Period not due 'til 25th, the wait will seem like forever. What day are you expecting AH?

PatientGriselda · 16/04/2011 06:56

My annoying thing: irregular periods so I don't actually know when I can test anyway. My cycles are between 30 and 44 days, which basically means two whole extra potential weeks of waiting after the initial 2ww. No matter how often I tell myself just to wait till 44 days and test then, from day 30 onwards it is a constant struggle not to test every morning.
