Anyone want to symptom spot with me?

Am 4dpo (I think) so ridiculous to think I am experiencing any symptoms but going to obsess anyway.

Does anyone want to symptom spot with me?

3dpo - right nipple was feeling itchy. Throbbing in my right ovary. A fleeting feeing in my uterus.
4dpo - slightly bloody nose this morning, both boobs feel tingly similar to when I was breastfeeding.

Clearly I am insane(!) but feel free to symptom spot with me.

Cracker When I was pregnant before the first thing I noticed was that I felt like AF was coming... I felt so bloated and crampy, sore boobs, Miserable as hell and the tiredness was something else!

Fingers crossed you get your BFP.

On the other Hand I woke up at 10am this morning.... supposed to be in work at 9!!!! Shock I don't think i have ever got out of bed so quick!

PMT symptoms this morning. Bloated, spotty, tender boobies and craving unhealthy food. :(

Hello everyone,

Hopefully i can join you all in the anticipation!

I am not completely sure when I ovulated but i am currently on cycle day 21... cycle's usually 25-29 days

for the past week i have been feeling really sick, gagging, no appetite although i feel so hungry but as soon as i try to eat.. bam! gagging again. I also keep getting sore boobs that seem to go away and then return. today i started feeling crampy, not much but its there. I am also getting really spotty, I usually get 1 (and only 1) spot around AF but now i have 4 big zits come up (all on my face!) grrrr! and frequent trips to the toilet. also found some CM today which was clear and stringy!

What do you think???

Fingers Crossed that all you lovely ladies get your BFP!!

bluefreckles · 07/01/2013 15:02

Still no AF Sad

CrackerJackShack · 06/01/2013 08:54

A week late and still BFN's!!! Ugh, I'd be going insane!!! Poor you. :(

Fingers crossed though, cause it's not over till AF sings. :)

It was so much easier when I just fell pregnant by accident and wasn't paying attention to all these timings and dates.

bluefreckles · 06/01/2013 08:50

Same here cracker and I'm now a week late with two BFN under my belt (3rd & 4th Jan). Have ordered 20x Internet Cheapies as can't keep purchasing at £10 a go in.Boots!

CrackerJackShack · 06/01/2013 07:59

4 days till AF and no PMT or pregnancy symptoms whatsoever....

AhhYouWillYouWill · 03/01/2013 11:47

well, AF came two days early for me last month and interrupted a lovely night away at a hotel my DH had got me for my birthday Angry so annoying...

CrackerJackShack · 03/01/2013 09:06

Blue, since I wasn't really ttc with number 1 I didn't even realized I'd missed AF until it was 2 weeks late and I started getting pregnancy symptoms different from my normal PMT (boobs felt REALLY different).

This is really my first time actively ttc and I have no idea what are symptoms or how long till a BFP! It's nerve wracking!

bluefreckles · 03/01/2013 08:55

Cracker - I also normally have signs of AF rearing her ugly head. Last month was convinced I was pg as had loads of symptoms for about a week and half prior to AF. AF came on 1st but only last 2 days which is rare.
Hopefully I'll start getting some positive symptoms soon then. How stressful?!
I thought I knew my body - apparently not!
Cracker - how soon after your missed AF did you get a BFP with your 1st?
Wishing you and I luck!

CrackerJackShack · 03/01/2013 08:36

If it's any consolation bluefreckles (and what kind of has my hopes up for this month) is when I got pregnant with DS1 I had no PMT symptoms or pregnancy symptoms whatsoever till about 2 weeks past when AF was due. That's super weird for me, as I usually have really bad PMT for about 2 weeks before AF.

bluefreckles · 03/01/2013 08:25

Hey cracker - I'm the same as you Sad

CrackerJackShack · 03/01/2013 08:06

So I'm 8 days till testing today, and unlike last month, I have absolutely no symptoms of either a period or pregnancy. Last month this time I had sore boobs, cramping and bloating. This month, nothing.

Not sure if that's a good sign or not. :S

bluefreckles · 03/01/2013 06:32

I did a first response pregnancy test just now and it looks like BFN.
Not sure what's going on though as still no sign of AF. Do I retest in a few days?
Really confused now. Don't like this POAS lark Sad

DoctorWhoFan · 03/01/2013 00:12

I can't test til 9th January. I promised myself I wasn't going to symptom spot, but it's impossible! Besides, I've been having all sorts of things going on that have been hard to ignore. I'm so badly hoping that I'm pregnant, after 2 years of trying. Time is running out for me with each passing cycle Sad

bluefreckles · 02/01/2013 19:51

I'm going to test in the morning. Still no sign of flo...
I'll let you know what happens.
This is my first time TTC, 2months in. I have never poas before!

FabiOne · 02/01/2013 18:57

Hello ladies

Can I join please? Ttc #1 for two years with zero BFPs in the past and this seems like a lucky thread.

AF due today but nothing so far, slight tummy ache which feels like AF.dont have another symptoms so anticipating AF arrival any time today or Tom :-(

KittenCamile · 02/01/2013 18:36

I gave in and did a test this morning and got a bfn but AF not due till sunday so am still crossing fingers.

I just want to be pregnant soooooo badly (as we all do!) I'm worried its all in my head but my boobs are so sore and I have a giant bloated tummmy, I cut wheat out for the last 3 days to see if it was that but its still there.

bluefreckles I would test now, your 3 days post AF's due date so stand a good chance, I don't know how you have held off for so long! Obviously you are far more strong willed.

My DP has made me promise not to test again till saturday so I don't get upset but I bought a 2 pack of first response today so we will see!

Elektra83 · 02/01/2013 16:03

I'm trying to resist the urge to symptom spot as I am convinced that I can't be pg yet! However for the last week I have felt tired even though I am getting 8 hours sleep, was itchy all weekend, just on my legs but really itchy and have been feeling nauseous too!

I want to say I'm hoping I'm just being a crazy, but I had to admit I would be chuffed if it was pregnancy symptoms.

I think I'm just reading into it all and have probably got the flu coming instead! My whole body aches today too!

bluefreckles · 02/01/2013 15:33

Hello everyone. Well my AF was due on the 31st (I'm normally pretty damn regular) and still no sign AT ALL that's she's even on her way...
TMI but still have creamy white cm - quite a bit each day. Normally I have spotting before AF shows up or maybe so brown, but nothing.
I don't have too many other symptoms that I could note - I have been pretty emotional one way or another the last few days but that happens with AF too... Also I have had some instances of heightened smell. Nearly threw up in the supermarket earlier when a not-so fresh old lady stood next to me.
Not sure when I should test...

bluefreckles · 01/01/2013 08:54

Please could I join?
Last month I was CONVINCED I was pregnant as in the 2ww I had so many symptoms - but then AF arrived on the 1st of December - albeit, only 2 days worth which is rare for me (normally 4 - 5 days).
I'm using iperiod tracker lite to try and work out my ovulation times and AF due times.
Have only been off the pill (Yasmin) properly since beginning Oct.
AF was due to start yesterday and no signs of it at all at the moment.
My current symptoms are bloated, emotional and very angry at times, had some cramping, creamy white cm, face has gone really spotty and back has been aching slightly.
Wonder if AF will rear her ugly head this week. I've never tested (anything!) before but if no AF by the weekend may do a test.

DoctorWhoFan · 01/01/2013 08:19

Well last night was fun...not! I felt nauseous and SO irritable. I was really not fun to be around. Feel the same today, too. Also have broken out in the most horrendous spots on my chin - nice! GRRRR.

DoctorWhoFan · 31/12/2012 18:08

I don't know really, you just keep going somehow. To be honest I'd be finding it easier if I weren't in my mid forties. Each cycle with a bfn is a cycle closer to menopause and no chance of our longed for child. Not going to dwell on it anymore today. Have a nice evening all.

KittenCamile · 31/12/2012 17:46

I'm with DoctorWhoFan aand not drinking tonight, I haven't really felt like it to be honest although today I'm convinced I'm not pregnant (and spent the day crying about it!) I still feel the same but just think I can't get pregnant on my second month of ttc.

Keep trying to tell myself I'm tired and hungry because its winter. God its such an emoitional rollercoaster ttc! A DC is all I have wanted for years I can't take getting my hopes up and then getting a BFN. How do people cope? I have litrally been on off crying all day

DoctorWhoFan · 31/12/2012 13:48

I'm not drinking. But then I don't really drink much anyway. I think I had 2 glasses of sherry over the Xmas period! Eeeeh, I sound like me nan! Grin

I already feel really bad...just had a McDonalds...it's from the devil, but I was hungry, what can I say!?
