I'm 3dpo. Done all I can this month so just the waiting game now to see if it's worked! Anyone else testing around 25th January?

Could be but I doubt it. I did have implantation bleeding with DC2 but that was more to the extent that I thought I'd come on my period

8dpo here too. I've got period pains Sadsometimes I only have a 10 day luteal phase so period could arrive at the weekend. I'll end up testing period or no period because I had what I thought was a period with DC2 right at the beginning.

Fingers crossed everyone!

I've been at the gym every day though....wish I'd thought of that excuse ;)

user1471496670 · 19/01/2017 06:34

Woke up this morning to lots of CM - almost like EWCM which has totally confused me!

Juliet I am due to test on the 25th too...but can't imagine I'll last past the weekend!

juliettetango · 19/01/2017 06:26

I'm 8 DPO & going crazy symptom spotting! I have also cancelled 2 gym classes this week just so I'm not doing anything to strenuous lol any excuse! I have had lots of twinges and crampy feelings but this is the first month I've been fully switched on to monitoring stuff, although I did come off the pill in September. So AF not due until 25.. I'm probably going to end up POAS at the weekend Confused

Snap! 😩 4 dpo and have been very hungry today. Having pulling and twingy sensations in lower ab this evening. Much too early but I love a good old symptom spotting session 😁

Trytowin · 18/01/2017 22:22

I'm in too. 4/5 dpo! Driving myself bonkers! fx ladies

lampfromikea · 18/01/2017 21:58

Mind if I join? Not actively trying (already have a 9mo DD) but also not exactly being careful IYSWIM.

DTD earlier and checked dates, yesterday was ovulation day so who knows what might happen!

user1471496670 · 18/01/2017 21:45

Still here and symptom spotting!
Currently I have lots of cramp, extremely sore boobs and nipples, lower back ache, excessively bleeding gums when teeth brushing and a foggy head! Oh and I keep getting hot cheeks and greasy hair.
All of which could be symptoms of AF on the way or anything else for that matter. Think I'm approximately 7/8dpo on Cycle 3 of TTC number 1 for both of us.
DP tried for 2yrs with an ex-partner with unexplained infertility, and I'm coming up 39 so not feeling very hopeful. Wish we'd got together 10yrs ago!

lexilou86 · 18/01/2017 16:40

Hi all,
so I had bloods today to check I ovulated- find out Friday eeek.
but in the meantime i'm now cd 25 of 31 (average)
I am really achey- all around my middle- back and front- especially bad backache, I just cant get comfortable, feels like i'm coming down with something but I feel totally fine in myself, I'm also quite wet (sorry tmi) and have been since i ovulated.
really trying not to symptom spot- but cant help these are good signs???

6dpo here now. Have largely forgotten about being on the 2ww on account of having two crazy children to look after at home. Totally different to when I was trying with my first. That said, it's only really the first month - I think after each month you don't get pregnant you do tend to think about it more and more.

I did have a panic on Friday because I went to the dentist and she did a dental X-ray on me. I was 2dpo at the time and only thought about it after the X-ray was done that maybe I shouldn't have had it done! Have been reassured on here though that in the event that I'm pregnant all should be fine Confused

I'm determined to wait until 1-2 Feb before testing. I was 10 days late last month but thankfully away so couldn't test even if I had wanted to.

powerpuffer · 17/01/2017 15:57

stickinny I completely agree, this month is a lot harder! The days are dragging. It doesn't help that DH is away on business so I'm at home alone and all I think about is the two week wait. I'm only 1dpo so have a long stretch ahead of me!

stuckinny · 17/01/2017 15:23

How is everyone?

Two weeks seems so long this month. I don't have much to keep my mind of it. Last month, with the madness of Christmas and traveling it was much easier.

passmethewine123 · 16/01/2017 15:52

Just released AF due 24th not 25th! So hopefully more likely I would get an accurate result from test...however I also don't really want to test early incase I get a positive which then disappears Hmm This TTC lark boggles the mind!

passmethewine123 · 16/01/2017 15:47

Thank you! Yeah bit of a dilemma but it's a nice dilemma to have all the same. FX for you too Smile

lexilou86 · 16/01/2017 15:30

4 days pass so it may not show- fx for you though!
I'm really going to try and hold out until AF is due-

passmethewine123 · 16/01/2017 15:05

Another with AF due on the 25th here!
It's my birthday on the 22nd and I'm going for a celebratory meal with friends on the 21st...not sure whether to test on the Saturday morning or not as I'd like to know with regards to drinking Confused

BBS83 · 16/01/2017 13:13

Hi all, cycle 15 for me. CD20 for me only 3dpo. Trying really hard to stay positive but 15 BFN do nother help. Fingers crossed for this month.

powerpuffer · 16/01/2017 01:38

Please can I join? 4th cycle for me, ovulation test positive yesterday so I am officially in the two week wait as of today I guess! AF due on the 28th.

ImaLannister · 16/01/2017 00:58
