Just wondering what your very first indications were? It's way too early for me to test but I've got tender boobs which is not typical for me during my cycle and period type cramps, and again not typical for me.

I am probably clutching at a million straws but am interested in your experiences.

I had confirmation of my BFP yesterday at the doctors. I have had no symtoms at all and felt better when I wasn't symptom spotting. In the first 3 months it nearly drove me mad! I always knew when AF was
Coming and if felt the same this month. The one thing that made me think it might have happened was the fact that I had no angry, red hormonal chin spots. My face always erupts 2 days before.

Good luck Porchrules Smile

Porchrules · 20/02/2015 09:42

Thank you - I will try and hold out until later on and do another and then probably tomorrow too... and, obviously, pretty much everyday until it's more obvious (fx)!! God I hope it is - 7th cycle of trying! For now, Brew and Cake xx

momwhereismy · 20/02/2015 09:25

Looks very faint :) but do another as Nessie says

Nessie100 · 20/02/2015 09:22

Typical, laptop isnt conecting to net so looking on phone. Not very clear on phone but sure looks like very faint line. Know when I was pregnant first time I got a negative at 8am & positive at 11am so maybe try another test in couple of hours? Or tomorrow if you can wait that long?

Yippee for you if its a positive Smile.

Porchrules · 20/02/2015 09:03

I've been lurking around here for a few days (thank you all ladies, you've kept me sane...well, if this is what sane is!) as I have had really similar symptoms to you Paper (unusually sore boobs and cramps) and the last three nights really bad blocked sinuses which have stopped me sleeping. I am 10dpo and did a test this morning and I just need another set of eyes; My DH is away on business and I can't stop shaking and wondering if my eyes are deceiving me or if there is a faint line here....

Very early signs you might be pregnant.
Nessie100 · 20/02/2015 07:38

Think I figured out (while awake half the night feeling crap) what 2ww means Smile - it must be so obvious I'm new at this - What a duh I am Grin.

Sorry to hear that Paper, but still a few days to go.

I have at least 6, up to 14 to go.

I felt like this with first one and had to wait bout a week. Only had one other time I thought maybe, but then my angry visitor came with a vengence and showed me different!

Onwards & upwards Smile.

Paperblank · 20/02/2015 07:24

Nessie please don't worry about sharing - I don't think anyone on MNet would mind if they were following a thread on which a fellow mnetter has got a BFP (big fat positive) it's fab news and so you definitely share!!

POAS this morning. Was negative but I'm not due for another 4 days. The wait continues....

Smile

First pregnancy - no symptoms

Second - AF type cramps two days before period, tested at 2 days late

Third & current - cramping since 5dpo, throbbing/pulsing pain 8dpo, tender boobs at 9dpo, faint bfp at 11dpo, nausea since 12dpo.

Good luck to all of those testing soon x

mrscatmad31 · 20/02/2015 07:11

Don't want my breakfast and my mouth tastes funny, not sure if I'm imagining it though!

Makemeanappledumpling · 19/02/2015 23:09

Mine was the smells. Everything smelt horrific.

Awful nausea and actually puking.

Dizzy. Miserable. Tired (like shatteringly exhausted).

Good luck :)

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 23:09

2ww???

Should I know what that means Sad?

LastOneDancing · 19/02/2015 23:05

Is this your first 2ww Nessie?

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 22:58

Yeah, I know, I think weird things Grin

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 22:56

I'd like to be able to congratulate the ones who get the results they want. What if someone doesn't though? Would they want to know that others succeeded Sad.

LastOneDancing · 19/02/2015 22:41

I forgot my other symptom was crazy vivid dreams... my friend had them too.

best of luck ladies - come back and let us know how you get on!

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 22:11

Here's hoping the best for your pee tomorrow Paperblank Smile. How early are you testing though?

I think I'll specifically go to a chemist half hour away tomorrow & stock up. Could be a long 2 weeks of tests Sad.

momwhereismy · 19/02/2015 22:04

Yes do paper! Then it'll encourage me if you get BFP, not that I need much encouragement

momwhereismy · 19/02/2015 22:02

Yes or a gameshow "ding ding" you've got it right type sound :D

Paperblank · 19/02/2015 21:59

If I could have quads I would Grin I always wanted four children but would be over the moon and back to just have the one (v old codger here)

Have dug out my emergency pee stick for tomorrow morning. Might as well POAS eh?

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 21:54

Seriously though, why hasnt a test been invented that can tell the minute you become pregnant? I'd pay for one. If it meant I could know for sure either way & if I wasnt then at least I could dose myself on whatever medicine was needed to make me feel better.

Surely there has to be money in it for some genius??

Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 21:39

Chocolate - bleugh. Uh oh, I'm a chocolate lover, nutella with a spoon straight out of the jar type chocolate lover!!!

2 at 1 time, I dunno. Didn't sleep for nearly 2 years with first one, would that mean 4 years of no sleep :-( . Sure why not go for triplets while you're thinking bout it - whole family instantly sorted :-P

Paperblank · 19/02/2015 21:31

aww nessie I hope you feel better soon - want to share my crunchie? I promise I've not licked the wrapper.

I have had recurring dreams for about 20 years that I'd have twins. Would be brilliant - knackering but brilliant. Two babies, one labour!

OP posts:
Nessie100 · 19/02/2015 21:07

Feeling worse by the hour here. If I'm pregnant it's probably worth it. But if it's a bug or something I'm gonna be so pissed off, cos feeling this crap isn't nice!! Hoping if it's a pregnancy I'll be lucky with symptoms like before.

ScrambledEggAndToast · 19/02/2015 20:49

Couldn't stop weeing, like 3-4 times an hour! And they were proper wees, not like the ones where you think you need to go and quarter of a ml comes out Grin
