I'm 4dpo and testing slightly early on 5.11.16 at 12dpo because I'm going to a family party that night.

Anyone needing any company during the 2ww? It's my first cycle off the pill and I'm obviously over-analysing everything!

MrsG we are the same always said from September also. Would work better for me work wise. But I know you can't plan these things so said we would start and see.
Im actually feeling okay now x

MrsG280516 · 31/10/2016 09:07

Sorry wanting and HellsBells Flowers plenty of time left. I'm not expecting to get pregnant first cycle either. We always wanted a baby born from September onwards so I don't mind if it takes a couple of months, although if it happens sooner its perfectly fine!

Im out - woke up this morning to test with an in date test and AF arrived. At least I didn't waste a test tho!

It was only our first month trying too wanting. Hope you are okay Flowers

At the start I didn't think I would get pregnant that quick so I was okay and knew these things took time. But when I was late/sick I thought I must be pregnant and I did get a little hopeful. So I am a little down about it but I am trying to look at the positive - the start of July wouldn't of been a great time for me to have a baby -
Finish u a course for work mid july and It is hard going. I have my own business and July would be the busiest time so I wouldn't of had time to relax with the baby.

Sorry for the essay - but good to put thoughts down.

Good luck to everyone else I have everything crossed for you! xx

Kaisha02 · 31/10/2016 07:44

Thanks dazed all signs of af have gone this morning, no cramps or anything. Just very very hungry all the time Cake

Dazedandconfusedtoomuchpeppa · 31/10/2016 07:35

WantingBaby1 · 31/10/2016 07:09

WantingBaby1 · 31/10/2016 03:48

Kaisha02 · 30/10/2016 21:41

Can I join please? I'm ttc no 1, on cycle 3, af is due tomorrow but am cramping something chronic today on my left side only, and white discharge but no actual signs of af yet.

charley2016 · 30/10/2016 19:19

Againplease so sorry to hear!

Cookie, we're trying for our first. Everyone in my family (5 generations) have all had babies between 14-16. I have a childcare management degree and been with my partner over 7 years, so lots of pressure from family for a long time and now we're pregnant it seems the only question people have asked since! Was a little sad to have my period last week as would have loved a honeymoon baby but obviously timings were out. Good luck to you :) my partners a little the same. He's broody round his nephew and then says he doesn't want to use and contraception now but if I mention anything to do with being pregnant or ovulation he says it's too much haha!!

cookielove · 30/10/2016 19:00

Is everyone trying for their first?

Dh and I have a ds who is 2, and ideally want to wait till Feb to ttc but keep having slips during my ovulation period! So I would be delighted to be pregnant and dh is swinging between yes let's and no way (often when ds is being a nightmare!)

MrsG280516 · 30/10/2016 18:57

So sorry for your loss AgainPlease Flowers

6dpo today so half way through before I test next Saturday! Getting nervous now. Other than the cramps I had the other day I've not noticed any other symptoms yet.

So sorry about your son againplease .

Welcome charley2016 would be lovely to conceive first cycle after wedding!

Ive just had an almost positive OPK. Starting to doubt whether I have actually already ovulated Confused . Should have used the Clearblue smilies this month!

AgainPlease · 30/10/2016 18:14

Congratulations on your wedding Charley

Flappergirl Grin haha

charley2016 · 30/10/2016 18:11

Hi ladies,

This is my first ever forum post! Mind if I join? I got married 3 weeks ago and been unprotected since then. I've used a period tracker for a few months before the wedding and I think I'm due to ovulate tomorrow. We've had fun yesterday and today and I'll try convince him again tomorrow Wink I'm the same as you guys, getting excited and will probably over thing everything as it's the first month. He doesn't want any pressure and I don't want to tell anyone I'm trying so thought it would be nice to have some fellow ladies to talk to through my first TWW! Good luck everyone x

Flappergirl86 · 30/10/2016 17:49

Fingers crossed for you Bell!

I was thinking and googling about my shooting breast pain being an early PG symptom... I just noticed my underwire has come out of my bra and was jabbing me in the tit. The mind is a dangerous thing!

AiryFairy1991 · 30/10/2016 16:24

Hey Again, so sorry to hear about your loss. I've got fingers crossed for you!

Crombanna this was our first month trying so now very long at all. Means I have no idea what to expect though which is what's making me crazy I think!

WantingBaby1 · 30/10/2016 15:40

Congratulations crom!!!

Totally understand the feeling of wanting to test again, but I'm sure it'll say the same. I've never heard of a false positive.

Congrats!

crombanna · 30/10/2016 15:22

hells that's disappointing. Did you say AF due today? Does sound like unmistakable symptoms but the mind is a powerful thing. I guess test tomorrow with an in-date test? I found last month when we "sort of" tried my period was 3 days late with 3 days of spotting which I NEVER get. I sort of wonder if the body knows and acts a bit weird? Airy how long did you say you were TTC, I wonder if your uterus is staging a protest as well...

Hi again. So sorry to hear about your son. That and a chemical pregnancy must make this whole process so anxiety inducing.Its so hard when there's nothing you can do but wait...

AgainPlease · 30/10/2016 15:08

Hi ladies! Can I join? I've read the whole thread and see there are congratulations and commiserations already. the 2WW is so shit!

I'm in my 2ww and can't test till Friday the 4th. The wait is killing me. We are TTC for No.2 after losing No.1 (he didn't survive premature birth).

I know all the early signs as I had a CP last month as well so I am going completely crazy with anxiety and analysing everything.

The first time around I didn't get any implantation bleeding, in the CP I did. Both times I was having very vivid dreams and was super tired. I have been having some vivid dreams but last two nights no dreams at all :( I have a constant mild headache. Never had sore boobs in my first pregnancy so can't tell if I am pg or not by sore boobs. Wasn't sick till my 7th or 8th week of pregnancy with my son so can't go by whether I feel nauseous or not either! Argh!!!

Flappergirl86 · 30/10/2016 14:55

Congratulations crombanna and everything crossed that its a bfp when you test again hellsbell -Ive heard clearblue arent very reliable despite being the no.1 brand in testing! x

HellsBellsK · 30/10/2016 13:21

It was out of date this month.

It's the clear blue one with the blue lines, i'v told a friend and she told me to get a different cause she hates that them.

It wasn't first wee of the day either and I have been drinking gallons of water this morning. I'm just making excuses now I think.

cookielove · 30/10/2016 13:01

hells was it in date?

AiryFairy1991 · 30/10/2016 12:33

I think sometimes the symptoms for everything are so similar it's really easy to get mixed up! What was the best before date on the PG test? Cause if it's from two years ago you might be right and it might be too old!

Fingers crossed you're not in limbo for too long!

HellsBellsK · 30/10/2016 11:17

So I had an old PG test left over when my period was late around 2 years ago.

I was/am getting this morning so decided to use it just to see, I couldn't wait any longer.

Well it was BFN so now I don't know whats going on. It doesn't feel like I have a bug. Feels like I was out and I'm really hungover the same as yesterday. Also dry mouth.
I will buy another one tomorrow and hope for the best that may be it was old!? But I don't think so.
Wonder can I take stronger painkillers now for my head? Or should I wait it out?

I think I just thought I was pregnant and may be my body is playing a trick on me and believing it. Mmmm....
