TWW - not even half way there

Is anyone else in the horrid TWW and feeling time drag? AF due Monday week and feels like forever...

DH and I've been TTC (not very religiously) for just about a year but I've quite bad endometriosis and had to have a cystectomy just before Christmas and they removed an ovary. I worry about getting another cyst and ending up with no ovaries and a womb full of regret, so trying a bit harder now.

Anyway, I ovulated last Monday and for the past couple of days I've had massively tender breasts, am hungry all the time and have quite a lot of CM. DH says I'm being silly thinking this might be it and told me not to get my hopes up but I had to say all the above to someone!

Love to hear from others in the wait...

DangerMousey, symptom on no, it's so hard not to get your hopes up isn't it! And the problem is that it seems to me that almost anything can be a symptom (rich chorizo stew sounds delicious btw).

Blackcatdancing, implantation bleed would be very convenient....good luck!

My breasts are still so sore, they normally get sore a couple of days before AF but never this early or this sore, must be "a sign" right...?

um yes, more likely to be the stew but you never know! I'm hoping for an implantation bleed so much checking of loo paper will be going on from today until Thursday.

I got my LH surge on Monday 12th and think my period is due next Saturday, 24th (I think I have a short, 10 day luteal phase).

So I am only about 5-6 days post-ovulation, but think I can feel light cramp-y, 'pulling' sensations in my uterus...i am madly symptom spotting, aren't I?? This is more likely to be the rich chorizo stew I ate last night, right?? xx

So we're all in about the same place!!

It's so hard not to get hopeful isn't it...

i ovulated Monday 12th so same stage as you. i just googled earliest you can test and it said some very sensitive tests can be tested from 7 dpo- but there is no guarantee implantation would have taken place. Yes time is starting to drag. This is my first proper cycle since i had a MMC in february. We had plenty of sex at the right time so am being stupidly hopeful :)

This is cycle 9 for me and AF is due on the 29th. TWW is an arse.
