1st month TTC

Haha...well I tested on the digi...BFN, not surprised at all to be honest. Think I need to a) stop symptom spotting and b) stop testing so early....who am I kidding-ordering some cheap strips from amazon now...

**

Same! Good luck, things !

So things...?

Hi Lynsey

Have just placed the clear blue by the loo for the morning....fingers crossed! The more I think about it the more I doubt myself though...I really think I am seeing symptoms and lines that aren't there

If the digi is BFN I gonna buy some cheapies I think....otherwise I am literally pissing money away

It's superstitious really, I actually think that the longer I don't POAS the more likely I am to be pg...despite using condoms and only having had sex three times since coming off the pill two months ago

POAS-ing is addictive. As soon as AF stops I think I'll be back at it

ThingsThatGoHump eep! Fingers crossed for a clear BFP in the morning! So excited for you!

Hi Lynsey!

Ha ha ha, Lynsey14, you just made me chuckle for the first time today-even though my tummy hurts! Welcome, welcome!

Finnable, I...just...can't...stop...myself!

Things - I'm SO HOPING there was a line. I'll be logging on tomorrow to see - fingers x'd for you there was!

Retro avoiding POAS? Where do you buy that self-control, and can you send me some?

I'm convinced by now that as soon as you decide to TTC something goes 'twang!' in your head that makes everything work a little...strangely!

Kitty Don't Google. Nothing good ever came of Google.

Annnnnd just realised this thread is very long and was replying to first page....

I'm 28!!! Hope that means I'm still young ;-) also first month ttc

First thing tomorrow morning! Save it for some good quality pee

I have a clear blue digi upstairs....sitting on my hands!

Ha, well done RetroHippy, very restrained of you! I think I was making it up tbh, I just want to be pregnant sooooo much!

Oh God! Now I'm Googling implantation pain. The symptoms are identical! How cruel is mother nature??!!

Ooh Things! A line is a line! Keeping FX for you

I'm actually avoiding POAS as the longer I leave it, the longer I can fantasise that I'm pg and not just hormonally haywire!

Well I just POAS.. I think there is a VERY faint line. DH thinks my 'wish for a baby has affected my eyesight' nothing like a reality check! Will wait a few days and pee again. Probably light reflecting/wishful thinking

Things and Retro you're both so much better than me, I used all the expensive ones, moved on to internet cheapies then ordered a second batch off Amazon. Beginning to worry about my mental health, as well as bank balance... Beware the cheapies - you'll think nothing of using them as they're inexpensive, and then POOF! The whole packet's gone. Might just be me and my crazy though!

Kitty - that sounds awful! Could it be (whispers) implantation pains?
Either way, it sounds like you need a bath and sympathy! Sending your way to see if that helps too!

Oh boy-where do I start?! What I thought was AF yesterday due to cramping and spotting might not be. I'm really only just over two weeks from my last 'pill period' so I thought it was just my body getting back to normal with a period out of place. How wrong I was . I have been having non stop stabbing pains that are taking my breath away so to speak. Am doubling over in pain when I walk. Painkillers are not helping. I think I might be experiencing ovulation pain for the first time. Has anyone had this? Will it end?!

Day 37 and counting...

I'm not letting myself waste money on an expensive test because I know I'm not pg, so waiting till my amazon cheapies arrive.

Convinced myself that my nipple soreness is hormonal, not just leaping about at the gym! Have no symptoms at all. Not a sausage. So can't even fantasy symptom spot.

Humph

No advice I am afraid, doing similar here. Can't decide when to test next-only cycle since coming off the pill was 33 days. Currently on Cd24 and have some tests which are supposed to work 4 days before AF is due so tempted to try tomorrow. Might need to order some internet cheapies at this rate

Have had such a sore back for the last two days....though I do sit in a computer chairs for 12ish hours a day, so not too unusual....gah

Hullo ladies...

Hope everyone's well, I'm driving myself potty this end with googling/looking at charts/reading scary statistics.

AF was due yesterday, I've POAS every morning for 4 days... nothing.

I'm utterly torn now between desperately hoping I've just OV'd late and am still in with a chance, and wishing AF would bloody well hurry up so I can drink cocktails!

Any advice/words of sympathy/slaps and pull-yourself-togethers gratefully received.

Well, af disappeared again, another 12 random af 8 days after the last one. Wish my body would just sort itself out.

Ps i changed my name from mrsw. Scared someone will figure out who i am as have a few friends also ttc that may lurk on here! Probably just being paranoid i know...

Well, I have started an AF of some sorts today. Not sure if it is actual AF as only two weeks since last "PILL period" and stopping taking the Pill. Extremely sharp pains all day and a dark spotting like AF. Hoping it is body getting back to normal, but it hurts!

Well it probably isnt but im already trying to convince myself it is - fed up already and coils only been out a few weeks! Lol. I have no patience at all.

Could the bleeding be ovulation bleeding? I've heard it can happen, and I think that's what mine was...

It's so bloody confusing!
