That is really exciting Squeaky! You are tempting me into trying it now! Are you going to do another one in the morning?!

Squeakybeaky · 09/05/2014 19:32

Ooh it's getting exciting on this post! I caved today and did a cheap test and I had the most faintest of lines which is only visible to crazy ladies eyes I'm only 7dpo

ladyflower23 · 09/05/2014 18:33

Ha ha climbergirl, it would be way too hard to resist with all those access to sticks! I think you are doing well keeping to one a day. How many dpo are you?

climbergirlali · 09/05/2014 18:27

Good going lady! I wish I had the will power... I'm a nurse so too many sticks around! I'm limiting myself to once a day...

Holding my fingers crossed for you tick tick x

The urge to POAS has hit me hard today, but luckily I have none in the house and no opportunity to get to a shop, so no chance to feed my addiction! I said I would wait till Sat next week to test, which is 8 days away...there is no way I'll be able to wait that long if AF doesn't come.
Don't worry about no symptoms kitkat, when I got preggo with my first I didn't have any till around day AF was due and lots of people don't get any till about 6 weeks. How's it going ticktick any developments?

climbergirlali · 09/05/2014 18:18

Feeling the pain with those who have only just stopped pill. This is my first cycle without microgynon and I have no idea what to expect! Now I'm even doubting myself on when I think I ovulated. I was on the pill for 10 years I can't remember what it w like before!
Don't think this will be my month :( I know it's early days for us but I'm very impatient!

Ticktick · 09/05/2014 17:15

Thanks Kitkat, I will try to keep you posted, still not sure what's going on! I'm about 9/10 dpo but not certain as I wasn't doing opk as often as I should have. How are you and your symptoms doing?

Humph, I gave in and did a test this morning... Bfn 3 days till AF and now a few hours later I have spotting, which a tiny part if me thinks, oooh could be implantation... but think its more likely to be AF gearing up to do her worst. Not impressed but will wait and see how the rest of the day brings.

good luck newbie, let us know. i'm still too scared to test!
feeling a bit down today :( not sure if just hormones, feeling negative about getting a bfn and or that im weaning off anti-d's at the same time or all at once more than likely!
got no cramps or any symptoms today which has kind of disappointed me as have had so much cramping/bloating etc for the last few days.
Arggh crazy body!

Hi all, am also 7dpo and succumbed to ordering a first response test so it should come today! Technically it says it can detect the pregnancy hormone 6 days before your period due soooooo, I could test on Sunday?????? Think I might BUT it's my husbands 40th next weekend and being VERY selfish I'm thinking maybe I should just leave the testing till after his 40th as I can then drink! I've booked a night away in a 5 star hotel so typical timing on my part, ha ha! Who am I kidding, I'll be testing on Sunday as have no patience!

Good luck everyone!

Hey brummie girl, I'm starting to doubt it's my month either. Just got a funny feeling yesterday evening that I wasn't.
I've got not tiredness (always tired anyway though!) Also no sore boobs or sickness. 7dpo today can't believe i have another 7 days to wait for af at least. Don't seem to have any cramping or as much bloating today. How's everyone else doing today?

OP posts:
Brummiegirl15 · 09/05/2014 07:27

Hey ladies

I'm symptom spotting too - but all I've got is unbelievable tiredness (I'm exhausted) and I'm a bit - ahem - windy too!! Sorry TMI

But no sickness or sore boobs.

I'm not convinced for this month - my mate kindly reminded me last night it took her 3 years to get her DS

Hmmm thanks for that < necks glass of wine>

Glad I'm not alone squeaky beaky! I hope it's a symptom!
I'm actually scared to test this time :s I keep looking at them and it makes me feel nervous! I'll be a wreck on the 17th if af hasn't turned up by then

OP posts:
Squeakybeaky · 08/05/2014 21:44

Me!!! I've had a dodgy tummy and wind this week! Very unusual for me! Lets hope it's a symptom! I can't believe how strong some of you are to not test! Crazy ladies ;)

Ticktick my windyness (tmi lol) has only started to wearoff this evening. Its been driving me mad. So bloated as well I feel like even my pyjama trousers weretight earlier as so much bloating. hope this isn't normal for me every month now!! I've also had a bit of a dodgy stomach 3 times this week which is a bit odd. Anyone else had tummy issues too? No nausea though.DDon't know which would be worse!!

Hi Ladies,

I'm on cycle 3 TTC #1 and
am currently 12dpo, and hoping to test on Saturday if AF hasn't arrived! So very scared that she will make an appearance before I get to test, which is what happened last month :(

I keep symptom spotting which is driving me absolutely insane! Have been having pain around my left ovary these last couple of days, and trying to convince myself it is new, but I can't say I haven't felt those kind of twinges before!

Nice to chat on here with people who are going through the dreaded TWW.

Here's to BFP's all round! :)

Ticktick · 08/05/2014 15:52

I'm not normally this windy!!! It's a new thing with this cycle, had a few cramps too but could be caused by the wind. I'm hating the tww, just want to know right NOW! Goodness know how waiting 9 months for a baby would be if tww is this hard!

kitkatkaty87 · 08/05/2014 13:48

ticktick have you had the bloating and wind on other cycles too? I dont know if its a normal thing as its my first cycle off the pill as well!
Big boobs sounds promising, i keep waiting for mine to do something but they dont!!

OP posts:
newbie6 · 08/05/2014 12:57

Fingers crossed for you ticktick, hope you get the result you want! X

Ticktick · 08/05/2014 11:24

I'm the same, about 8/9 dpo due AF/BFP on 12th. Been feeling really bloated and windy the last few days. It's very embarrassing! Boobs feel big today n full. Hope its a good sign?!? Trying not to test till mon 12th but might on sun with my DH with me. Wouldn't want him to miss it... But it'll prob by a big bfn as symptoms are like AF. Cycle #5 TTC #1

climbergirl, I'm also 6dpo and being at work just gives you more time to ott on the symptom spotting i think! I am less bloated than yesterday, but was so bloated yesterday i felt like a gassy whale!
