Tww- anyone want a symptom spotting buddy? :)

Also feeling sick, tired .. Heavy boobs

Bridget I'm spotting like crazy!! Don't know what's going on... Feels like forever until I can test

Hi girls! I am CD 23 of typically 28. Didn't use any OPK this month as I find them hard to interpret and stressful, decided to DTD every other day until day 19 and see what happens. I am symptom spotting like CRAZY this week. Feeling so nauseous over last few days but esp today and at one point thought I was going to faint! Ran to boots and spent £40 on pregnancy tests. Used first response but BPN. Genuinely gutted :-(

Hello, I'm a newbie to mumsnet!!

I had my first MC at the end of March.

I've since had 3 cycles, last period I was extremely tired and sick feeling with it..
I went to the doctors and turns out my iron was low.

I'm now taking iron with my folic acid and other vits.

My first day of my last period was 8th June normally a 22-24 day cycle.. I've been keeping track on Ovia.

But the last couple of days I've had a bit of pink after wiping (sorry!) and today I've been having on and off pink spotting which to me seems like a lot.

I've not had this before to this extent, previously just a very small amount but just before my period.

If anyone has any idea what this might be...

Hoping for a pregnancy!

I have no idea. Some say it's too early. Mine have been really sore since the day after ovulation and I'm wondering too if it could be a sign. Sorry not much help!

Ladies I'm CD21 of a 28 day cycle, approx 7dpo. Last 3 days, v sore boobs! But only when taking bra off except today when they are just constantly sore. Been on nights shifts so no proper morning wee but POAS anyway three times but a bfn as I would expect. Could these sore boobs be a sign of pg or is it too early??!! X

Thanks clarke, I'm ok about it actually. It was only our first cycle and it was all a bit last minute so I'm not surprised. Im going to have a guilt free (large) glass of wine after my run tonight. AF seems to have stopped as I've actually had no blood today at all but I know it'll be back very shortly. My bodies just messing with me!

I'm going to lurk around on this thread so I can keep up with which of you get your bfps, got my FXd for all of you!!

So sorry to hear that Olive, be kind to yourself over the next few days

I'm now 6 dpo (I think).
Nipples much less sore, but still a bit sore.
cm has been thick and creamy for past few days, more of it than usual.
Had a tiny bit of red blood this morning, I'm wondering if it could be an implantation bleed? No experience of this though so not sure what I am looking for! Period due in 8-10 days.

I'm out, AF turned up last night! 2/3 days early!

Oh no 😔 Nope, you're not out at all then! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! It's just frustrating not knowing what's going on, AF still hasn't come either, just a horrible waiting game now x

Thanks Katherine,

I got a BFN AF not die til
Sat so not 100% out. Just going to chill out and wait a few days until am actually late before testing again. I've had a few really long random cycles too - so annoying fx for you.

Thanks Seahawk, I hope you get your BFP in the morning! Hopefully a good nights sleep and then you'll feel better in the morning!

I'm on my 4th cycle being on metformin for PCOS, the metformin has lightened my periods which is good. My cycle lengths have been 31, 33, 34 (in that order) and this month I'm now on day 38 with no AF. It's so frustrating, I took a PT this morning and got a BFN. I have slightly achey boobs and felt nauseous on and off over the last week, don't know if I'm symptom spotting though. What do you guys think, should I test again and if so when? Or just wait for AF to rear her ugly head? Xxx

Hi Katherine, welcome!

I'm off to bed, will test tomorrow but all symptoms have disappeared. Ready for a BFN and feeling a bit low. Just saw a pregnancy announcement from a colleague which makes it harder. Really feeling sorry for myself. Hope everyone else is in better spirits!

Any chance I can join you ladies? Hubby is away at the moment with work and could do with some people to talk things over with x

I was strong and resisted testing!

Party Artist I feel the same, nausea has gone and still have cramps so maybe AF is on the way. I am on holiday and hired and drove a boat for the first time today so maybe that just kept my mind off the nausea! Boobs normal but they never change or get sore around AF. Gonna do a FRER with FMU tomorrow as I can't last any longer! FX to everyone

Hello Janey, fx for you.

He's mad for it Olive, so sweet. We've been mutually marvelling at the size of my boobs, they're obscene this week. But it's been happening every month since I came off the pill so not a handy symptom.

I had a craving for a snickers bar yesterday, odd as I hardly ever eat chocolate, and he was looking at me funny.

But having a very involved one means knowing how disappointed they are when it doesn't happen

Anne I love that your DH is doing the symptom spotting

Mine will probably fall on the floor in shock if we have a bfp this month. I think I will aswell to be honest. Although it would be a lovely surprise. Like janey we only decided part way through this cycle, so we weren't very prepared in advance. However I am already symptom spotting despite us agreeing on a 'chilled out approach' whoops!

Hi can I join in?? this is my first time posting but I'm excited and no one in real life knows I'm ttc! I'm about 9dpo, and I swear today I have an implantation bleed. My DH only decided he was ready to start trying the day that I Oed or the day after, so our timing has either been perfect or annoyingly one day late...

I said after my first pregnancy I wouldn't POAS until I was 2 weeks late, as I found 4-6 weeks pregnant more nerve wracking than the 2WW because of some early spotting, but how am I meant to wait? AF due about Sunday, so still quite a few days to wait and see...

I'm feeling a bit crampy too. Based on my last handful of cycles af is due in the next couple of days.

DH is going to be so disappointed if it comes

I will too but he's been madly symptom spotting!

I had AF like cramps this morning again. Convinced it's going to come early, keep nipping to loo to check but still just cm at the moment. It would be typical if it did as I carelessly left the house in white undies and no Sanpro today

Still tired but didn't feel nauseous this morning. Still sore nipples but not as bad as it was. So the things that I thought might be symptoms seem to be reducing in severity, leading me to think they are nothing. Also got thick creamy cm (sorry if TMI!) Still unsure when to test as Ovia says in 8 days, but also says that my period is due in 11.

I'm groggy and shattered and my boobs are killing me. But my mood is okay! How's everyone else?

How is everyone this morning?

Hi Olive, that's exciting to have a test buddy. I have promised myself and DH I'll wait til Thursday but I know I won't make it past then. Will let you know.

Kitkat, I've had pretty bad cramps this evening, am not too worried AF - fx for you x
