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?!

Ugh - hope it's lovely chocolate FortySix

Still waiting for AF (due yesterday), BFN this morning again (Sainsburys own brand).

A bit of snotty, slightly briefing discharge yesterday but nothing since. I'm very confused

FortySixandTwo · 29/03/2015 09:57

Hope everyone is doing well this weekend
AF turned up as expected this morning and I'm not sure I feel any better for not having POAS at all.

Ohh well back to DTD after AF and symptom spotting next month before our appointment.

Fx for everyone still waiting stay strong ! I'm off to by some chocolate.

I'm 14 DPO. My periods settled right back in a rhythm when I came off he pill it's just my partner and I don't seem to DTD at the right times! Both busy workers and tend to crash when we go to bed.

I'm laid in bed right now deciding what to do. I start to feel AF cramps when I do this and shouldn't over think it. I doubt I will get a BFP but I'm just feeling like something could be different this month. I'm probably wrong and AF will arrive shortly in which case onwards and upwards. I'm temping now which is confusing me a bit! I'm very chilled this month so what will be will be.

doom I think everybody gets a little down sometimes chick, don't worry about it, we are all in the same boat.

Hi fruity so how many dpo are you? The amount of times I've jiggled my boobs up and down the last few days is getting ridiculous, dh even mentioned it last night! Blush

Fruityb · 28/03/2015 23:56

I'm trying not to this month! I'm on day 27 and haven't has one any longer than that since August last year. I've averaged 25 so we shall see.

Can't symptom spot as I haven't had any! I normally get sore boobs but nothing this month. No sign of AF yet but there's always tomorrow! Am tempted to POAS tomorrow morning...

doomkittycleo · 28/03/2015 18:09

Thanks guys, sorry about the negativity had a moment of weakness. It ain't over till the witch arrives. :-)

epskie · 28/03/2015 17:12

Ah wine Flowers sorry xx

Hope you're feeling better doom

Hi carrot I knew nothing about ttc, dtd, opks or ewcm at all until I had my miscarriage! I never knew if I was in my tww or not! Sigh Sad well we are all here now anyway, might as well make the best of it!

wineandpopcorn · 28/03/2015 17:02

Hope you are feeling better doom Flowers

fuzzywuzzy · 28/03/2015 15:56

Carrot welcome Smile. Maybe leave it a day or so and re-test first thing in the morning?

Must admit I was like you first time round, didn't know what to expect & no symptom spotting so the pregnancies were a lovely surprise.

CarrotVan · 28/03/2015 15:12

Hi, I've lurking for the last few weeks. I'm TTC #2 (first cycle) and have symptom spotting like a loon and must stop obsessing. I'm due today but so far no bleed but a BFN so I'm confused and gloomy.

It was much easier with #1 - pregnant second month of trying and I knew nothing so couldn't symptom spot anyway

I'm not sure where I fit in terms of the buses and long term threads. They all seem exclusive and specific to particular conception characteristics at the moment

I'm a MN lurker but rarely post and this is a new account because I forgot my old details

doomkittycleo · 28/03/2015 14:05

Yes lara that's about righ. good luck, it'll begin to drive you crazy by next week week.

TerryTheGreenHorse · 28/03/2015 13:45

Sorry wine Thanks

doomkittycleo · 28/03/2015 12:36

I know what you mean wine. I'm feeling really fed up today. Haven't even got out of bed yet cus I'm feeling sorry for myself.

LaraNotCroft22 · 28/03/2015 12:30

Hello all! Joining the tww today. Going to try to not obsess for next few weeks but don't hold out much hope. Have had smileys on opk yesterday and today, so going to hope ovulation is imminent. Will look to test two weeks today I think.

Does that sound about right? It's my first month trying properly for no2 but as I have pcos could be all over the place.

Good luck to all testing soon. Hope you get your Xmas babies Smile

wineandpopcorn · 28/03/2015 12:25

AF arrived 3 days early today Sad. But at least I can drink over Easter weekend!! I soooo wanted a Christmas baby though!! Gggrrrrrr TTC is so stressful!

Springflower3 · 28/03/2015 12:04

What if u pee at day 3/4 am? Is that your FMU??

TerryTheGreenHorse · 28/03/2015 11:59

According to Countdown to pregnancy if you test at 10dpo you are most likely to get a false negative, so there is certainly hope!

epskie · 28/03/2015 11:56

Yeah I used fmu. I'm not giving up hope yet, only 10dpo is still very early. Let's stay positive Grin

TerryTheGreenHorse · 28/03/2015 11:45

Not everyone gets the sore boobs. Some people get nothing at all.

So don't feel out just because of that.

Did you use FMU on the FRER?

Springflower3 · 28/03/2015 11:07

Girls I have the sore boobs and I'm no better off so don't let that get you down!!! AF hasn't arrived for u guys so far! Positive thoughts!!

epskie · 28/03/2015 10:38

I feel the same doom :-( not sure why, I think it's probably my painless boobs. Let's try not to get down or negative though, there's time yet x

doomkittycleo · 28/03/2015 10:32

I have a gut feeling I'm not going to get a bfp this month. Not sure why, not due on for over a week but not feeling positive anymore.

epskie · 28/03/2015 09:05

Wish I'd listened to advice now - bfn on an frer this morning Sad the red witch hasn't sang yet though, for any of us! Let's stay hopeful ladies!

Springflower3 · 28/03/2015 08:35

Well seriously good luck to all testing this week!! My symptoms are more like AF now :(. Just wasn't meant to be this month!!

doomkittycleo · 28/03/2015 08:22

Yes, I used clear blue ovulation test and had a solid smiley last Saturday. Assuming I ovulated Sunday.
