On the 2ww...

Well, looks like I'm out, it's got darker and tissuey, although still not much. Still have all the symptoms though, but cramping is more like AF cramping. Fair to say I'm gutted, but hey, there's next month!!

Obsessed/Ladyflower - probably this is a good example of when finding out from AF is more final, which it looks like for me. Keep the faith, sometimes actually not knowing is more bearable than knowing!!
Good luck, will keep an eye on how you are all getting on xx

how many days PO are you ladyflower? I'm totally with you on rather finding out from AF, because at least then it's a bit more final and I won't be able to talk myself into thinking I could be pregnant again.

Does anyone else feel sick after exercising? I didn't overdo it, just a fairly typical workout, but what I've noticed is that each time I come back with a much stronger queasy feeling - today worse than ever and a little bit of sick in my throat (gross!). Also, I've had weird feeling this morning of sudden surge of energy - which is weird because I know tiredness is a more typical symptom. I'm just wondering (hoping) if it might be a temporary effect from sudden hormonal changes???

Does sound like preggo symptoms hullkat i will keep my fx for you that a bfp and no af is coming soon. I still have painful boobs, but that could be pms. Also moody and spotty...again could be PMS. So tempted to buy a test in Sainsburys this afternoon. Just keep thinking how disappointed I'll be if it's bfn so keeping that in mind to stop myself. Would rather find out from af than have that massive excited buildup then no second line. Also had weird pressure feeling in womb last night, which i am hoping was some kind of implantation sign...which would mean it is too early to test anyway. OK I've talked myself out of it again. I am NOT testing today!!!

I have that same feeling Hullkat on the morning my AF starts. Weirdly I have had the exact same things every morning since Monday and its been an upset tummy too. But has only been that time of the day! I have everything crossed for you too x

Ok, TMI time but usually on the morning (always a morning) that AF is due, I have a sudden urge for a no 2 (sorry!) I do that, then AF is there, like magic, every month without fail, has been the same since I was 12 (I'm now 35!).

This morning, that "no. 2 urge" (LOL) was there, which was when I saw the pathetic light brown CM, it's like a slightly darker than usual CM with light brown speckles in it, and a very slight pink tinge. I have some cramping, which is low down and both sides and my BBs feel like they've been all night in a sack, in a fight with a badger!!

It's been the first time ever that I've had cramping for a full week before she's due. Like you all say, it could be IB, I'm sure today will tell. My fingers, toes, and every extremity will be crossed, not just for me but for you all too....keep those feint lines coming!! x

That picture was taken at 5 mins. The line is still there now too. I always seem to test better later in the day too and will prob do another one later :) I will put on my FRER tomorrow :)

Congrats Squeaky! Are you going to test again soon?

HullKat, do you think maybe it's possible that it's implantation bleeding? In which case, maybe too early to show up on a test anyway?

I had the same gutted feeling when I tested BFN y'day morning, and spent the day convinced that it was all over. And then woke up this morning with full on sickness. The ups and downs are horrendous, so am definitely going to hold out as long as possible before testing again.

Hullkat it's definitely not over until your AF turns up so don't lose all hope just yet. If its any consolation with my first 3 pregnancies i got a BFP second cycle. It's almost as if the first cycle was a warm up hee hee

This is my 9dpo test this morning. Very faint I know :/ but def something there!

Ooooh squeaky that's fab news x

Morning Everyone!
Well, it's a BFN for me again, and just been to the loo and there's some light brown/pinky CM, still nowhere near calling dark enough to be a period, but she may be on her broomstick on her way
Woken up feeling very sick and with a banging headache.

My last AF was 14th Apr and ov was between 23-27th Apr. we dtd more or less every day from 21-29, so we did all we could I suppose.

I have never had symptoms like this before in my life, which I'm still getting, I might add. If I was a betting girl, my money would have been on a BFP, but no! I don't think I can go through this every month, it will drive me mad!!

So, anyhow.......I just wanted to say that the waiting game is a killer, and even though this is my first month going through this, I have learned that I will just have to wait until after AF is due, as the BFN disappointment won't be doing us all any good.

So, what symptoms have people been noticing the last couple of days? Any good news from anyone? Xx

Morning girls, I had another faint line this morning on a cheapie. Less of a squinter though which is exciting. I will do an FRER in the morning when I'll be 10 DPO.

Any news katy?

Newbie dont lose hope just coz it was a bfn. It's still really early x

Ahhh, this really does your head in!!!

Ladyflower, I had the implanon stick removed in Jan this year. I have been desperate for a baby for the last year (am now 34 and feel my clock ticking) but DH said he wanted to wait till we manage to save enough to move into a house (we live in 1bed flat). Now we've decided to let nature take it's course... I can think of NOTHING else, lol.

Thanks Hullcat, yes I think I might be at the same point as you, though it's very frustrating that I don't know my exact dates. I wish I'd been keeping track of them.

Ah, thanks climbergirl! When is your af/bfp due? When do you think you will test? Good luck on your race today. Wanting to drink beer last night helped me stay away from the sticks. Not quite as virtuous reason!!

Lady I'm taking inspiration from you and holding out! Plus am racing (runner) today so need no excuses not to push myself!

Any news girlies?!

Hi newbie, our posts crossed. Sorry to hear about your BFN. How many dpo are you?

Morning everyone! ANymore lines this morning??? I held out in Boots and didn't buy any. First think I thought when I woke up this morning was i want to POAS. I've realised there is no way I will make it all the way to next Sat if AF doesn't come so I've moved testing date forward to Thursday!

I could see the line on your test Kitkat and the next one could have been neg as too early, so I have my fx for you this morning. Negs are so depressing

Hi obsessed have you come off the pill recently? This can cause weird symptoms. Or maybe you just have very low levels of hcg so won't show up on a test yet. Like squeaky said I would test again in a few days or a week if you can hold off that long (i know it's hard!)

Arghhh, negative but maybe too early? Now beginning to think I'm not! X

I'm going to do a first response test tomorrow as my AF is due on Friday......cannot sleep! Good luck all!

X

Yeah could be just too early. Wait a couple of days Hun x

Just cause it's a BFN could still be way too early! Hang on in there x

Looks promising kitkat!! FX for you, no AF for me today. We could still be in there :-) all the best, I'll see how you get on tomorrow.

Hang on in there obsessed1, looks like you're at the same stage as me, good luck x
