Hey all
My tww starts again today. 4th cycle. Just had 2 full days of positive opks and lots of bd with dh.

So let the crazy symptom spotting begin and the madness that is the tww.

Anyone else in the tww - hoping to hear lots of bfp stories xx

Hi hopeful, are they usual AF symptoms for you? I am about 10dpo (AF due Wednesday-Friday) I tend to get pre AF cramping and lower back pain from about a week before AF is due. Have had some very mild cramping so far but sure it's not as bad as usual though the lower back pain is worse. I am usually really affected by PMT but haven't been as irritable as usual. That could just be because it was our first wedding anniversary yesterday though so am feeling a bit loved up. It totally sucks that pre AF and early pregnancy symptoms are so similar. I really hope this thread gets a BFP very soon.

Evening all. How's everyone doing?
I'm currently 7dpo I have been feeling a funny cramp in my stomach today and also have had sore boobs. I'm wondering if it's early af symptoms. Keeping everything crossed for all of us xx

Sorry Gin. Keep us posted. Xx

HairStylistToBoris · 03/11/2014 13:28

I'm currently feeling lightheaded. I am blonde so quite often ditzy. But is lightheaded at 5 dpo a sign?
I also can't concentrate at work?

tootssw17 · 03/11/2014 12:53

Proof! That is nesting! #symptom

tootssw17 · 03/11/2014 12:42

Aww gin am sorry! Fx for next cycle.

TheProofIsInThePudding · 03/11/2014 12:41

NoArmani I may not be taking this very seriously but I'm looking for anything slightly out of the ordinary that might mean I'm pregnant. For example, I had to take DH to the station at 6 this morning. Normally I would have crawled back into bed for another couple of hours kip. Instead, I've been really productive and made soup, done a work out, and sorted through a load of ancient paperwork - it must be a symptom!

You could, of course, listen to Hair's much more sensible advice!

Ginfizz90 · 03/11/2014 12:07

Just done a cb digi and it's negative. Must just be a late or missed period.

tootssw17 · 03/11/2014 11:50

Gin! What is not sure! ( hopping foot to foot with anticipation !)
Fx for you!Smile

Ginfizz90 · 03/11/2014 11:44

Hi everyone I'm a week late today and tested this morning. For a second I thought I saw something but now I'm not sure. Also could be a coincidence but was stuck in bed all day yesterday with sickness.

anyone want to join me for the tww?
Joey0805 · 03/11/2014 11:34

Exactly! Everything I'm thinking could be a symptom is exactly the same as what signifies AF is on the way plus we're all so aware of our bodies when TTC we notice things that probably happen all the time anyway but we never paid attention to before...

HairStylistToBoris · 03/11/2014 11:31

NoArmani - some women have symptoms of implantation approx 7 or more days after ovulation if everything went well. The sympotoms can be things like mild stomach cramps, messed up sense if smell or taste, itchy breasts, light bleeding. Trouble is for me these are just like the symptoms I get before my period, and they come at the same time of the month!

NoArmaniNoPunani · 03/11/2014 10:31

Sam: If AF hasn't come yet surely you could still be pregnant?

loopylou1984 · 03/11/2014 09:46

Thanks crazy cat, just wish af would hurry up so I can get out of this limbo and on with the next month. Xx

NoArmaniNoPunani · 03/11/2014 09:46

Just wondered what early symptoms you're all looking out for?

CrazyCatMomma · 03/11/2014 09:39

Sorry to hear that Sam, keep trying! Maybe November will be your lucky month.

loopylou1984 · 03/11/2014 08:26

Hi April, no luck with drs appointment and still a very definite bfn... At this point I'm fairly sure I'm not pg...

CrazyCatMomma · 02/11/2014 23:59

AF due on Wednesday. Bloating for Britain today. Pretty sure it will be a BFN as this feeling is so familiar...

HairStylistToBoris · 02/11/2014 22:53

Toots, I am with you on being confused and my marbles having been well and truly lost. We had a brilliant month this month with DSD wakeing up at all key moments... And even walking in on us 'having a cuddle' on a peak day. I'm not holding out much hope for a positive outcome (and trying not to blame DSD) but I'm desperate so imagining any symptom...

Mumwannabe82 · 02/11/2014 21:57

Anyone who has lost their marbles whilst TTC are definitely in the right place here Grin

tootssw17 · 02/11/2014 21:55

Hi all- I think maybe perhaps am in 2 ww but still irregular post bc. Am I allowed to join?

Did our best to dtd lots but think I ahem got confused with his swimmers and ewcm - Blush so doing 2ww according to Ovid app as best I can go on... 13/14 th nov if that's ok.
Don't think will have many symptoms as don't get much for AF other than cramo I.e no boob surge no long term spotting no warnings!

But. I have lost marbles if that helps?

Mumwannabe82 · 02/11/2014 21:53

Oh good, thought I was just being weird in my cycles lol xx

Aprilray · 02/11/2014 21:36

10-16 days is normal for a luteal phase Mumwannabe so 12 days is just fine.

Mumwannabe82 · 02/11/2014 21:30

Its strange because I have mostly read that you should get AF 14 days after ovulation but I really think mine is only 12 due to the slightly shorter cycle, anyone else different from the norm? X

Mumwannabe82 · 02/11/2014 21:28

10 days to wait for me and sometime next week I'll start crazy symptom spotting, its all fun and games Smile
