Hi everyone,

Hope you don't mind me staring a new thread as the last is full to the brim now!

Just to recap myself:

Age 31
Ttc no.3
6dpo
1st cycle! (Agh!)

Anyone else?

Anyway I'm still clinging onto the bus but feeling extremely negative about this cycle as I've had what has almost! been the flu Sad
Couldn't get my sorry head off the pillow yesterday and feel like I've been 8 rounds with Tyson aiming right for the lungs!

Going to test on Thursday 19th as had my last two Bfps at 10 DP0

And just wanted to say thanks to everyone on the old thread that kindly gave me advise and a much needed pick me up with regards to being so --pathetically - Ill lol I took all advise on board and today I feel like it's finally letting up a little (woo!)

Hope are well and good news is coming for us all!! X

thegrumpysquirrel when I came off the pill in October, I spent most of November absolutely convinced I was pg because I had really strong signs. 4 bfns and a frantic call to my midwife cousin, but turns out it was just my body preparing 😔

missmagpie if I was grasping, I could say I have the odd crampy twinge down there and occasionally the shadow of a sore boob, but that's seriously grasping at straws! I'm just going to enjoy this week with no af signs - they seem to make it drag on for longer than necessary!

MissMagpie · 23/01/2017 09:39

Powerpuffer and MrsG I am with you on the no symptoms symptom.

I am about 12 dpo today and have nothing to show for it really!

It's CD27 for me and I usually have a cycle of 32 or 33 days but ovulated early this month for some reason and I usually have a 12 -14 day luteal phase.

If I really think about it there are some very faint crampy feelings from my uterus area on and off since yesterday but I wouldn't notice them if I didn't want to! I did have a kind of sore feeling from my chest last week but I think I was fighting off a cold as also had that tension-in-the-neck thing you get when you are about to get ill.

Not sure when to test. Might wait until the weekend because I hate getting BFNs.

Motherhippy16 · 23/01/2017 08:51

Good morning all. Was due on yesterday and felt rubbish all day but as yet there is no af. I could be wrong with my dates though as can be plus a day or two sometimes. Have constant runny nose, unbelievably painful boobs and cramps. Have brought a lot of lemonade with me to work today and will buy a test on the way home unless af gets me today! . Fx for everyone. X

TheGrumpySquirrel · 23/01/2017 08:06

Have sore nipples and boobs which I don't normally get but it's been years since I had a period so could just be gearing up for that..

TheGrumpySquirrel · 23/01/2017 08:02

Came off the mini pill 28 days ago (Boxing Day) and no sign of AF. Suspect ovulation on 10 jan but not sure, tested Saturday clearly negative.. am going to test again Wednesday 25th

RoseValleyRambles · 23/01/2017 07:49

Fx for all those riding this bus to the end! Af will arrive tomorrow (going by average cycle) or Saturday (going by clue's prediction). No signs so far. Probably going to wait until Saturday to test unless she arrives before - don't want to have to cram testing into getting ready for work! :)

MrsG30 · 23/01/2017 00:11

I'm with you on no sign being a sign powerpuffer fx for us both!

powerpuffer · 22/01/2017 22:52

So, I'm 6dpo and have no symptoms. None. The last 4 cycles I have had either very sore nips or sore boobs from 4/5dpo and yet now I'm almost on day 7 with no symptoms at all. Fingers crossed that no symptoms are a symptom itself!

SmittenPears · 22/01/2017 19:13

Congratulations Addtothechaos, that's wonderful to see!!

FX all around, everyone.

Addtothechaos · 22/01/2017 18:35

Thanks for congrats everyone. Will test again tomorrow and see if line is any darker, I'm hoping its a nice sticky bean!

Will do a digital next week if all goes well (they are bloody expensive aren't they!)

Fx some more Bfps follow on in the next few days! Will keep checking back and holding my breath for you all!

Much love xx

BTW, I have my fingers crossed for everyone still waiting for their January BFPs. Xx

MissMagpie · 22/01/2017 18:07

Congratulations chaos! Exciting!

I am 11 dpo today. Have no symptoms of anything to speak of which is most unusual. Am thinking it does not spell good news though.

And to top it off I have just discovered my DS has chicken pox!

RoseValleyRambles · 22/01/2017 17:29

Yay chaos! Great news. I think false positives are pretty rare. How exciting for you!

Motherhippy16 · 22/01/2017 16:40

Flowers I'm currently due af today if I'm sticking to a 28 day cycle. Been having af like cramps on and off all afternoon though so think she is imminent. Just got in from work and so so hungry! Have had lots of cm after ov this month which doesn't usually happen x

minime2016 · 22/01/2017 15:31

Congratulations chaos! Delighted for you Smilehere's hoping we'll be joining you on the Oct 🚌. Nausea and other unpleasant symptoms have left me though was light headed and generally off colour this morning. Went out for lunch and that seems to have cured the ick, hangover type sensation. Wouldn't mind but haven't been near a drink in ages 😁

Flowers88 · 22/01/2017 15:24

Hang in there MrsG you will get your bfp! X

Flowers88 · 22/01/2017 15:23

hippy not tmi it's so helpful to know. You're at similar stage as me aren't you? I'm 7dpo today. Do you usually get more wcm around this time of the month? X

Motherhippy16 · 22/01/2017 15:07

Flowers I've had lots of wcm this month and it's turned more lotiony today (sorry if tmi) this chat forum has been a life saver. Fx for us all x x x

MrsG30 · 22/01/2017 14:22

Wow so much has happened today! Congrats chaos! Wonderful news! Flowers

kirsty I get jealous too, put a positive, happy face on but inside I'm constantly worrying something is wrong with me and we'll end up as that couple who can't have kids (even though cycle 1 ttc).

Hope there's some more BFPs this week!

Flowers88 · 22/01/2017 14:17

Yay congrats chaos amazing news!!!

7dpo ladies - anyone experiencing increased cm?! I didn't have much when I ovd and now I have tmi so much it keeps feeling like AF is here early?!

Fingers crossed for lots more bfp before the month is out!! X

Kirsty8333 · 22/01/2017 14:04

I've used them cheap test from home bargains chaos and they were right. I actually found they give me a positive result before others

sarahboro1 · 22/01/2017 13:58

Congratulations chaos!!! Love those bfp's coming in!!!

Fx for everyone else, it's the home straight ladies stay positive!! Xx

Motherhippy16 · 22/01/2017 13:18

Fx for you too! Not going to test till weds now as wing b able to pick up a test today and don't want to do a test when I've got step son in the morning on Tuesday. X

Addtothechaos · 22/01/2017 12:59

Thanks everyone. Hopefully it's a healthy sticky one, fx! Will keep you all posted. Do you think the tests I did are accurate though as they were 99p from home bargain for two!? They will be ok right?!

motherhippy I have everything crossed for you for tomorrow morning! Good luck and I so do hope it's a bfp! Xx
