Kitty - it does sound like it's worth mentioning it to a GP. Just for your own peace of mind if nothing else.

Natalie - how many dpo are you? If you've implanted there is definitely a chance you'd start to feel something.

So... I went and got a FRER and BFP!!!

"Today I am pregnant!""

Good luck everyone, I really hope for lots more BFPs on the August bus.

BananaToast · 13/08/2014 13:04

Oh no don't say that I'll get excited again! Still spotting slightly but no proper AF - but this is usually how I am before it arrives so it seems like it's on it's way. Will def test again tomorrow though!

Natalie1989xo · 13/08/2014 13:03

Ladies, AF due approx 22nd/23rd August.

I wasn't symptom spotting (much).

My boobs ache sooo much today. Never something i get with AF due so can't help but think it's a symptom? But isn't it a tad early?
My tell tale pregnancy symptoms are achy boobs, gas TMI, and rising early to pee! all of which have started in the last few days!

Ovia app says 9 days to test. Thoughts anyone?

EnglishGirlsReturned · 13/08/2014 12:54

Kitty have you been to the drs? If I was you I'd go and just explain the situation and how since your mc your cycle has been out of whack. Hope it's nothing to worry about hun. It's one thing after another, wish you (and I) were one of the lucky ones who got upduffed simply by looking at DH.

KittyVonCatsington · 13/08/2014 12:05

Banana That looks like a proper line to me too!

Congrats Wiggly

Welcome Fifi

I feel bleurgh! Still blood when I wipe and I feel so so sick. If it is ovulation spotting, I'm still pissed off as I won't be able to DTD (poor DH!) and so this will have been another wasted cycle that was going so well. I do feel that to get it on the same dpo as last month but on no other cycle in nearly a year, something is not right with my body. Sad

lucieloos · 13/08/2014 10:57

DH and I have decided that if I don't get my bfp next week then we are going to book in for some tests. I've found a private clinic which will do an AMH test to count number of eggs left, pelvic scan, sperm analysis and also a consultation for £200. I'm really nervous in case there is a problem and didn't want to have to go down this route. I wanted that lovely surprise of getting a bfp naturally but best to get things checked out I suppose. Crossing everything for a bfp next week now.

gennibugs · 13/08/2014 10:42

bluesky that's what I've got. It feels like ov pains but I can't be. I haven't a clue what it is. It's sometime a dull ache like period pain and sometimes twitching and mini stabs on my right side. my lower back is also killing me.

I don't think I've ever had this since ttc. I don't normally get AF cramps until about 10/11dpo.

lucie those vits played havoc with my cycle so I binned them.

MustBeDueSomeBetterFeet · 13/08/2014 10:23

bananatoast looks like something to me, but best crack out the big (expensive) guns for sure. How exciting!!

Does anyone have an opinion on this morning's wee stick? I will trot down to Boots in an hour for some decent tests....

hanflan · 13/08/2014 10:13

p.s. I hate those internet cheapies, I only got a clear line on them days after I had a bfp on everything else! They do mess with your mind haha

hanflan · 13/08/2014 10:12

bananatoast just wanted to give my two pennies worth, that DOES look like a faint line to me rather than an evap! I would be peeing on a FRER or similar haha

lucieloos · 13/08/2014 10:01

Hi Bluesky, I had the same left side pains and twinges for the whole of my 2ww last month as well. I had loads of other symptoms too and was so sure I was pregnant but it was not to be. I felt so rough though over those 2 weeks and decided to stop taking my vitabiotics pregnacare tablets this month as it was the only thing different to normal. This month I'm now 8dpo and feel so much better. I have had the odd left side twinge since OV and a tiny bit of cramping but nothing like the previous cycle. I'm much happier and now just take normal folic acid. Don't know if you take any preconception tablets but thought it was worth mentioning.

Blueskygirl30 · 13/08/2014 09:50

And welcome guiness and fifi!

Genni I'm 3dpo and I'm still getting cramps in my left side like the ovulation cramps I was getting. Is this what you've got? And does anyone know if this is normal. I had a bit of what felt like period pain this morning too but my left side is twitching away and it's making me worry.

Blueskygirl30 · 13/08/2014 09:46

Congratulations Wiggly!!!! Wishing you a super happy and healthy pregnancy!

I hope MrKitty isn't in too much pain Kitty and that he feels better after his operation. Nightmare not getting to DTD though, how inconsiderate of him! Wink

angelaham · 13/08/2014 09:38

oops the highlight thing did not work, not very computer friendly lol

angelaham · 13/08/2014 09:37

gennibugs, - hope your cramps are a good sign, the tww is torture, i try to not to think about it but its not easy to switch off

Hi and welcome to the board fifi and guiness

guinnessgirl · 13/08/2014 09:24

thanks genni. Forgot to add, I'm 32 Smile

gennibugs · 13/08/2014 09:20

Oh and welcome guiness and fifi

gennibugs · 13/08/2014 09:20

Morning all

wiggly wooo hoo!

kitty your poor DH. He definitely has a legit excuse for not dtd! Hope surgery goes ok and he's home soon.

fx banana but these evap lines sound rubbish. I've never used ics - I think they'd mess with my mind!!

angela glad you managed to dtd.

I'm about 4/5dpo and I've still got cramps. I've had them since cd4 so god knows what they are. I'm putting it down to my IBS rather than a symptom as I'm bloated too. I really hope I did ovulate though and these aren't ov pains! This is the point I find hard - too early to test and I'm pretty sure any symptoms are all in my mind!! Grin

fififolle · 13/08/2014 09:11

Oh, forgot, I'm 36

angelaham · 13/08/2014 09:11

Kitty - sorry to hear about your DH, he must be in a lot of pain, hope the spotting is ovulation spotting and not like last month,

Mrsgingerbread - keep my fingers crossed for you

WigglyBraddins - big congratulations on your BFP

we managed to dtd last night, even if we dont get a bfp this month least i know we have tried our best, rather than kicking myself in thinking if only i had !!

fififolle · 13/08/2014 09:10

Could I join too please? TTC DC#2, 3rd cycle. AF due 26th August.
Still no bloody smiley face on CB digital ov sticks.
Have been DTD alt days as fertile time.
Mirena removed 31st May. First AF was back to awful normal, 2nd was much lighter, shorter and pain free so was hoping it was implantation bleed but it seems not. Fingers crossed for this month.
Good luck everyone!

ohlordyplordy · 13/08/2014 08:59

Thanks Katy will report back on progress. Hope all of your dtd gives you a bfp.
Congratulations wiggly.
Oh no kitty what a nihtmare!

guinnessgirl · 13/08/2014 08:56

hello all - can I join in please? ttc #2, cycle 8, BFP due 16/17(Ish - irregular cycles) Aug. Got a good feeling about this one as DH & I dtd much more regularly around possible conception date this time round...
