Hi (big wave)
So you clicked on here cos you were looking for me (I'm flattered!) or the title seemed interesting!
I'm aware it doesn't really explain but we are bunch of lovely ladies all TTC and going ever so slightly crazy with it! For more info see our original thread here - www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/2412386-TTC-anxious-over-early-pregnancy-possible-symptoms?msgid=56357000#56357000

We are symptoms spotters extrodinaire - you name it we've had it, real and/or imagined Confused
We are here to help, we are all supportive, we laugh, rant, cry, joke, rage, smile, and comfort together. Be you a lurker or poster (established or new) then you are very welcome here. We only have a few rules:

  1. No judgement - we all lead different lives and have different standards and that is fine. You wanna get wasted everyday of TWW, that's fine. You wanna abstain completely, that's fine. We need support, not judgement.
  2. No feeling stupid - we've all had those months where we definitely think we are pg 110% convinced and then AF turns up, don't feel bad about it, it happens. Also we all have different levels of knowledge so no question is stupid apart from the one you don't ask.
  3. On this thread there is no such thing as TMI - we are all adults and we all know how miraculous and amazing... and downright disgusting our bodies can be, it's fine. Share what you want, we will not be fazed.

So that's it, jump in and FX'd for all my lovelies xx

Aww neetie if it's comfy then it's comfy :)
Don't know aindy I'm convinced it's just evap... period was lighter - only 3ish days of real bleeding with spotting either side and 1 heavy day, normally 4-5 days long, 2 days heavy with no spotting... also, sorry for this one, but it didn't really smell, had no cramps either which is unusual for me

Well have just ordered asda maternity trousers so at least I will have something to wear for work... ooohh prty fx'd

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 18:42

Yeah, you don't even have to squint to see it. It's there...Hmm

Can you remember if there was anything different about AF at all?

Yeah aindy that's the line we think we can see... not really pink though or overly strong. Will see what Saturday's FMU says on an expensive test!

OP posts:
LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 18:34

Well, if it's that faint line on the left that's the same distance from the middle dots as the right one is then yeah, that's a line!

Haha it doesn't really show very well at all on a pic unfortunately, sure it's just an evap

Hmmm think it's made things worse!! Bought a 2 for £1 Asda cheapies - never used them before.
After the three minutes and another five of obsessive staring I convinced myself there was the tiniest hint of a line, probably evap. Present it to OH and open my mouth to explain I've been staring at it forever and thinking of a way to explain evap lines without sounding too cray cray, all I got out was 'can you see that?' And he says 'that faint line, yeah'
I explain about evap and he agrees it could well be that esp considering the cycle timing... then he says 'wait a few weeks and test again' WEEKS?! What is wrong with him?? Thinking of buying an expensive test tomorrow...

Arggggghhhhhh bloody kids.....what a crappy afternoon...
To top it all went in Tesco to try to buy more trousers and the only ones with elastic waist would make me look bloody awful :(

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 18:19

That made me giggle so much Prty!!

So...you reckon it's worth ruling out?

Not at all, it's in the family... I e always had regular periods but I'm excessively hairy lol

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 13:47

I have heard about getting periods throughout pregnancy. Would it be too cray cray to suggest POAS....?

aindy yup - Dr Google says sore boobs generally are hormonal so linked to either AF or pregnancy, other causes could be hitting the gym to hard (exercise isn't something I ever do I'm a fan of!) or too much caffeine if you're sensitive to it - cut out caffeine a month or so ago and drink a ton of coffee before that and never had an issue! Dr Google also tells me it's possible to have regular period like bleeding throughout pregnancy... AF finished about 10th Sept, last BFN was end of Aug...
I tend to have a lot of CM around ov and it changes a lot in TWW, from nothing to creamy to watery to bucket loads!

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 13:14

Neetie I've reverted to wearing big pants and a pad!!!

neetie1 · 17/09/2015 12:50

Also getting feeling that have fluid/discharge coming out but all clear very odd. Now down to one pair of trousers that I can wear ...

LittleAindy · 17/09/2015 12:39

Prty that is so strange! Have you consulted Dr Google yet? Sounds crazy but sore boobs, spots, a cold, tired - I know it couldn't be on CD 10 but sounds so much like Pg! Hmm

Sunny, Pirsy, I'm sorry to hear that. It's reassuring to know that we're not alone. Maybe try every other day?? Gives the chance for a good 'stock' to build up w/o it being too old. Saying that, OH and I would even struggle with that rate! Lol!

So I have no clue what's going on with me. I've had two days of excessive CM. It's like lotion! (But also a tad watery). Kinda feels like I've wet myself or AF has arrived, and I've had to run to the loo!! Lol! Grin Does anyone else get this during the 2WW??

I am not symptom spotting. I am not symptom spotting. I am not symptom spotting

Bonkers Booby Band Wagon!! Hop on board!
Think I'm starting with a cold but that wouldn't make my boobs hurt!!

OP posts:
SunnyScot89 · 17/09/2015 10:35

Don't give up Pirsy, we are the same. OH and I took a week off work last week to DTD but I don't think I even ovulated. :-( Everyone around is pregnant, and my best friend is due to become a daddy next week. I'm so excited for him, yet incredibly jealous.

Can I join the Bonkers boobie band waggon? Mine are randomly sore on the side, like under my arm Hmm

Pirsy1 · 17/09/2015 08:17

Aindy I had the same experience as you last night - DH couldn't finish. This has never happened before and I'm worried that the pressure of TTC is getting too much. It's not the end of the world because we DTD on Tuesday, I just wanted to get another one in last night because think I might be ovulating soon. Honestly just don't know how to keep it fun - it's like a chore, even DH said last night 'Pirsy I can't do this everyday'. We both have busy jobs - my husband especially and before TTC we used to DTD weekend mornings, so trying to do it weekdays before bed does feel a bit forced. We went round to see our friends gorgeous 3 week old baby last night too and you just start thinking it's never going to happen. I feel like giving up today, but at the same time I know I can't.

bex & aindy I'd be very surprised if it was ov'ing... my shittest cycle has been 27 days, only CD 10 today. I don't normally have ov symptoms, just CM (which I have none of currently) my face has also exploded into spot city and my friend told me I looked really tired last night - like to the extent that she was concerned I hadn't been sleeping! It's more like I'm due AF rather than just kicked her out!!
