So it's my first cycle of ttc number 3. I'm only 2dpo but I'm so, so impatient! Grin

Anyone else entering the 2ww madness? X

Hi Everyone waves I'm new here, not sure of all the abbreviations that are used so please be patient with me :0) my partner an I have been trying for only 3 months, I'm 9 dpo and feeling sick, bloated, boobs are gonna explode, exhausted, got a cold, extremely emotional (to the point of crying or wanting to slap random strangers!) I had some odd sharp poking pains in low right of stomach this morning and I feel pregnant but don't trust my instincts as my last child is now 14 so I can't really remember how I felt with the beginning of pregnancy! :0/ sooo in just gonna leave this post here and wish you all luck with your waiting. Personally the waiting is driving me to distractions like housework an that's never good ;0) lol

Poas this morning and got another very faint bfp. Going to asda on my lunch break to pick up some frer and cbd to see if I get anything on those.

Fingers x :-)

lottystar symptoms sounds promising hun xx

Lottystar · 09/01/2014 10:54

Morning ladies! Welcome to newcomers too. Thanks for starting to chart our poas day starchildmum.

I'm just constipated (sorry if tmi) Drinking loads so hoping it's a sign. I've been mega constipated in both my last pregnancies. Also my nipples look slightly a different shape and had a bit of yellowy cm. This is likely all just pre menstrual signs but a girl has to hope! Like you Polythene girl, my husband is a super realist about these things but he is not the one who goes through a roller coaster of emotions each cycle!!

Congrats Glitter!! Let's hope those bfps keep coming xx

sebsmummy1 · 09/01/2014 10:18

I've had so many symptoms over the last seven cycles that I really don't believe any of them. For done reason I have started cramping in the 2ww the last two cycles. No idea why, but again it's led to nothing positive!!

I am 6dpo and off out to soft play this afternoon with my mum Grin

Harry2007 · 08/01/2014 23:22

They are indeed less sensitive mrsmorrison Sad

Oh well starchildmum...he, he! Grin

I've never actually had to wait until the day of af for my BFP in any of my other three pregnancies...I've always had a line 6 days before af was due. I'm just trying to tell myself that it could always be different this time though. Fingers crossed indeed Thanks

Hi harry being thirsty is not really a sing of pregnancy. Grin
But of course cramping is so 10 days to go for you. Fingers X

Mrsmorrison13 · 08/01/2014 22:55

Aww polythene they just don't get it , you don't ever think there would be so much anxiety and emotion before the egg even gets to the bottom if our tubes lol , I just feel different this month xx

Mrsmorrison13 · 08/01/2014 22:52

Exciting glitter !

Guess what I just found out... The wee cheapie strips I buy from asda a pack of 2 for £1 are sensitivity 20, and the clear view double pack at £9.99 for two is sensitivity 25 !! That means the are less sens doesn't it ? Ohhh the poas rage lol

My af is due fri 10th so I guess I'm due my BFP 11th/12th ? X

Harry2007 · 08/01/2014 22:46

Ooh glitter could you be our first BFP!!! As I self confessed poas addict, I say, test again in the morning Grin

My test day will be jan 19th...

Ooh, it's been busy on here! Harry waves to all newcomers!

I've been slightly distracted this evening as running my own business with a small child running around and refusing to go to bed has proved quite a challenge!

So it's 3dpo for me today but feels like 20dpo iykwim!

Feeling quite cramps and insatiably thirsty but that's it!

PolytheneGirl · 08/01/2014 22:38

Congrats Glittet, got my fx for you. I've had terrible cramping and back ache today (5dpo). I'm hoping this is a good sign.

DH has just upset menu suggesting I'm setting myself up to be disappointed. I'm fully aware of this, I don't need it pointing out and I am right to be excited at the possibility of getting the one thing I really want! Now I feel like I'm not allowed to be upset if I get a bfn. Pft no dtd for him tonight!!

GlitterLily11 · 08/01/2014 22:27

Thanks starchildmum I had the cramping too, annoying isnt it! Especially when we want it to mean something lol. Fx its a positive sign xx

xxmissbrightsidexx · 08/01/2014 22:23

I'm joining in :) so many symptoms but no doubt they're all in my head lol x

starchildmum · 08/01/2014 22:17

Congratulations Glitter. A faint line IS a line!!!! So happy for you. Look forward to hear a BIGFP on Friday.

I have had some signs too.... cramping since 5 days :-(
It started 4DPO and now I am 8DPO and I have strong period like pains and really tiered...
Hope its not all psychological.

MooMa1d · 08/01/2014 22:12

Oooooh glitterlily Grin

GlitterLily11 · 08/01/2014 22:10

Hey ladies. Im 12dpo today, got a faint line on an ic so will test again tomorrow friday :-)

Ive had loads of symptoms, but the most noticeable for me was:

4-8dpo, strong cramping
8-10dpo, change in cm, it was ew but tinged yellow
10dpo, totes emotional. Cried at an advert cos the dog looked sad and cried uncontrollably at a song on the radio
11dpo-12dpo, can smell EVERYTHING!!!

FX u all get your bfps this month xx

starchildmum · 08/01/2014 21:50

I am ttc baby number 2, my DS is 16 months. This is our 2nd cycle. I said we would be relaxed until the summer but I am obsessed. My 2ww ends next wed or thur I think.
Fingers crossed for everyone.

MooMa1d · 08/01/2014 21:34

I'm on 2WW but for some reason don't feel very confident about it - no signs or otherwise other than extra cm which is unusual 5dpo for me.

I just don't 'feel' pregnant... but then why would I Hmm

Doesn't help that i'm so impatient

.......let keep collecting :-)

starchildmum · 08/01/2014 21:25

sorry table ended up very unclear.

starchildmum · 08/01/2014 21:21

DPO blood urin save to test

OV+12 20-59 1,90-13,10

OV+13 33-91 8-35 10er
OV+14 57-140 20-59 25 er
OV+15 100-252 33-91 10er / 25er/ 50er

From this table testing could be done 12 days PO with a 10er and it might show if you are lucky and on 13PO with a 10 or 25 but you might get false negatives.....
Having said that you all need to be very sure when OV has taken place otherwise it does not work.

If you want to see the complete table ( colour coded etc, its in German but pretty staightforaed type in hgc tabelle into GOOGLE

My d day starts from the 17th as well x
