Last month I drove myself nuts with symptom spotting and early poas. I had every sign and symptom going and was convinced I was pregnant. Luckily I kept a list of all my many symptoms on a calendar so this time if necessary I can remind myself that pms has all the same same features as early pregnancy.
I'm determined not to test until 23rd, as I think I should come on then if I'm going to, must stay strong!! Anyone want company in ignoring the whole thing?!

Not going to get any!! My AF is technically due then so at least the result will be accurate!!!

I will have everything crossed for you epskie!

epskie · 29/03/2015 18:53

Obviously unless af comes first?

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 18:46

epskie · 29/03/2015 18:01

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 17:53

I'm with u carrot it could be all in my head!!

Epskie could we make pact to wait another week??

CarrotVan · 29/03/2015 17:31

Metallic taste can be an early sign. I'm thirsty and peeing all the time and am bloated and headachy. Could be pregnant, could be pre-menstrual, could be all in my head...

epskie · 29/03/2015 17:29

spring that's a good sign!

I'll be 14dpo on Wednesday but I don't know whether to try and hang on as long as possible for af :-/

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 17:19

TerryTheGreenHorse · 29/03/2015 17:04

2 clear blue digis
2 sainsburys cheap ones
15 or so internet cheapies

Screwed aren't i! Grin

epskie · 29/03/2015 16:15

I have frer, a superdrug own brand, a clearblue digital and a pound shop cheapies :-/

Monkeysocks38 · 29/03/2015 16:09

Unfortunately I have loads of tests in the house! I bought about 30 IC last month and also have 3 for my clear blue advanced monitor. The clear blue ones are the worst. You wake up to the monitor flashing advising that you can take a pregnancy test and then it very kindly states "not pregnant" across the screen. I prefer the simple lack of a second line. Actually, I'd prefer a bfp!

doomkittycleo · 29/03/2015 14:55

I've just ordered some online cheapies. Hopefully they will take a few days to arrive so I won't be tempted to test too early.

CarrotVan · 29/03/2015 14:29

I have one left. I'm going to try to leave it a few days before using it.

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 14:06

Who has tests in the house?? I'm point blank refusing to buy any more until at least wed!!!!

doomkittycleo · 29/03/2015 13:54

Looks like you're 1 day behind me monkey. I've been driving myself crazy this month. Was really hungry and thirsty last night. Had a KFC at 4pm and chicken and veg dinner at 8pm, was starving again by 10pm. I also drank 3 large glasses of squash in the space of 15 minutes. Now thinking was I thirsty cus the KFC was salty or something else. All symptoms gone again this morning. Also had a few af like cramps in the week and tingly boobs, but these are gone completely now. Grrr stop symptom spotting doom!!!

epskie · 29/03/2015 13:38

Thanks carrot

Hi monkey it's so hard isn't it? I can totally identify with the stressing about stressing! Fingers crossed it's your month too :-)

Monkeysocks38 · 29/03/2015 12:46

Hi everyone. I'm currently 6dpo and desperately trying not to obsess this month. For the last two tww I had sore boobs and awful nausea. Last month I also had a horrible taste in my mouth. This time nothing, apart from the sore boobs. DH keeps telling me to chill out and stop stressing and I know that he's right but then I start stressing that the stressing will stop it happening! Trying to tell myself that this month isn't the best anyway given that I have three nights out coming up which will all involve wine and so will be obvious to everyone if I don't drink!

CarrotVan · 29/03/2015 12:03

Yup, Spring. I'm clockwork normally

Epskie - implantation is normally 6-12 days after ovulation so 14 days DPO would be pretty late unless I ovulated late, and implanted late.

epskie · 29/03/2015 11:44

fruity I would definitely poas!

Ah forty hugs! I agree, Easter egg chocolate required! Flowers

carrot how do you work out when implantation would have occurred? I mean how do you know that you must've ovulated late if that was implantation bleeding? I know I'm probably missing something really obvious there but I have to ask :-)

spring no more poas for me until af is late! Good luck with the interview!

I woke up with a spot on my face this morning. Ttc'ers in the 2ww - the only people in the world who think 'hoorah I've got a spot on my face!' Wink

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 11:30

Thanks carrot!!! I hope you get bfp! Is your period normally bang on time??

CarrotVan · 29/03/2015 11:12

If I ovulated late perhaps, Cleo. Theoretically it would be implantation bleeding on 14 DPO but perhaps if I was a couple of days late this month

Good luck with the interview Spring

doomkittycleo · 29/03/2015 11:09

Implantation bleeding Carrot? Give it 2-3 more days and test again if AF doesn't show.

Springflower3 · 29/03/2015 11:08

Sorry to hear that forty!! Easter egg chocolate is always best I think lol!!

Still no AF for me and apart from sore boobs I've nothing! Slowly driving myself mad here tbh! Have a job interview tomarow so I'm hoping it will be a distraction!

Epskie have you poas since??
